Techies are the new super heroes
Geeks, techies, nerds or whatever you call the IT crowd, can now tell their own story and turn that into a daily web-comic. No need drawing anything! Thanks to IT Dev Comics, a group of IT maniacs who just launched the Heroes Happen Here project. More about it on Newsarama:
The comics are spearheaded by Gorfinkel, who earned his comics pedigree as an editor for DC in their Batman family of titles. Now President of Avalanche Comics Entertainment, Gorfinkel heads up the editorial side while the comics themselves are written primarily by Chuck Dixon, with illustrators signed on including well-known American comic professionals as well as new comers as they try to work with artists in different countries.And the webcomic won’t just be based on the American experiences; stories cover Canada, Latin America, Great Britain, Germany, Japan, Spain, France, India, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the Middle East, Africa and the Asian Pacific. Keeping with their plant o focus on stories from across the globe, they are also accepting submissions from artists to draw future episodes. “Potential artists can go to www.itdevcomics.com and we will have a place to get in touch with us directly. Even if they may onto be right for this project, Avalanche has other projects going on all the time and we’re always seeking new talent.”
Naturally, the project is sponsored by people who can spend that amount of money on something completely useless and yet very interesting from the marketing point of view. In other words, Microsoft and Seagate.
