Hello, everyone! My webcomic, Magic City (http://www.magiccitycomic.com), has launched today, and I hope everyone will come by and read it.

I started working on this project about two years ago and only really got it going about one year ago. It's been a long road for me filled with lots of waiting, anger, and frustration, but it's finally happened, and I couldn't be happier.

What is Magic City? It is humor, it is drama, it is hope, it is despair, it is normal, it is weird, it is understandable, and it is unintelligible. It is a town growing into a city, trying to find its identity. This may or may not capture that correctly nor will it attempt to do so. If it does, then all the better. Magic City is an idea sprung from the mind of one Greg Thelen. He lives in the Magic City better known to the rest of the world as Billings, Montana, U.S.A. This takes place in that town-growing-into-a-city, and it is not bound by any rules or restrictions other than what comes out of its creators' minds and hands. One story will be funny, the next will be sad, the next will leave you scratching your head, the next will give you an inexplicable emotion. Whatever may happen from here on out, we hope you will be entertained, and that you will come back for more.

Enjoy.Each story is 5-10 pages long, each by a different artist, each in a different genre, style, or theme. It will be updated every Tuesday and Thursday, and today's the first day. I posted the first two pages of the first story "James Murphy Is My Hero" written by me, illustrated by Nick Palazzo, and lettered by Brandon DeStefano.

I hope you will stop by and read my comics! :)

:) Just checked this out...nice idea of collaboration! I see you're creatively motivated out in the Middle of Nowhere (excellent Orbital album, btw, but you knew that!). The illustration's a pleasant mix of ink and pencil (and are there some treated elements? For example, where the character is sharp, the background blurred)?
Will check back for the next pages! Great start!
