Party like it’s 1998.

Scott McCloud’s going to release his new comic, The Right Number, on the internet. It’ll be available for the low, low price of 25 cents. —Ladies and gentlemen: micropayments.

    Heh. I haven't checked yet to see whether the book'll be available offline. Not that I mind paying 25 cents for a full-length story or anything. It's just that, for practical reasons, I only read online comics for about two minutes at a stretch. Anything more kind of bothers my eyes. I suppose if Scott wants to make it available for one of those palm pilot-ibook fusion things that Space Waittress (whom I way behind on reading) waxes rhapsodic about... and then give me one for free, that would be nice, too. :p :p :p

    So you see, as far as online comics are concerned, I'm sort of halfway between Scott and Seth. I love the concept, but the old fuddy-duddy in me sometimes doesn't feel easy with certain aspects of the execution. It's good, in retrospect, that I didn't make it to that S.D. debate they had, because I just would have spent the whole time feeling like a ping pong ball in the middle of a some kind of marathon tournament. :o
