In keeping with tradition, we’re ringing in the new year by looking at some of the stuff that’s impacted our little corner of the interweb over the past twelve months. This includes some of the news bits the Fabler Blog has reported on, some of the changes and landmarks the main site has experienced, and of course, a Coles Notes list of the interviewees we’ve featured on the site throughout 2010.

The past couple of weeks, the Fabler Blog featured interviews with Vancouver-based webcomickers Jonathon Dalton (www.jonathondalton.com) and Angela Melick (www.wastedtalent.ca).
In addition to their close proximity to Canada’s Western Coastline, they share something else in common; founding membership in a comic book collective by the name of Cloudscape Comics.
I was fortunate enough to recently connect with a few individuals involved with the group. My goal was to learn a little about what they do, what they stand for, and how local comic creators can benefit from collaborating through a collective like their own.

The Fabler interviews Colleen macIsaac, indie illustrator, minicomic creator, and animator of short films extraordinaire!
Speaking of the extraordinary, it does occur to me that un-extraordinary is the same as ordinary. Ordinary just didn’t fit with the context. Ahem.
