Earlier I had said that I didn’t know of a way that geeks could help Haiti in a geeky way. Well, I have since found Outspark. Outspark offers free MMO games, but for the month of January you can also get these games by giving a $5 donation that will go directly to Yéle Haiti.

CAPTive is dark, gritty, and definitely for mature audiences only. It has graphic depictions of violence and sex; if that’s not your thing, take note, but I think that if you like a good psychological story, and aren’t squeamish, you should definitely check out CAPTive. Read on as its creator, Steven Severt, and I discuss CAPTive.

We’re taking a bit of a break this week because I really want to know: what are you guys reading? This is your chance — have you been reading, hoping I’ll mention your favorite webcomic (or even YOUR webcomic)?

As a result of the recent earthquake and after shocks in Haiti, thousands upon thousands have been left dead and untold numbers more are left injured, homeless, or lost in the rubble. I don’t know of a geeky way to help. I only know that geeks and non-geeks alike can help.

This third issue is another great installment to The Anchor coming out from BOOM! Studios. If you haven’t checked it out yet, what the heck are you waiting for? Issue #2 had me wondering what was going to happen to Clem and Hofi (OK, mostly Clem) and from the start of this issue we are not left hanging.

Copper Age is a dark gothic comic brought to you by Tom Brown and Brynneth Colvin. The darker mood will be more up the alley of fans of Poe than my last few Webcomic Wednesdays have been, but I don’t think that you necessarily have to be a fan of gothic literature to appreciate what Brown and Colvin have done here.

I was first introduced to Kawaii Not not as a webcomic, but in print at a local bookstore. It was recently that a friend informed me that Kawaii Not was, in fact, a webcomic. I knew I had to try and talk to the creator, and fortunately for me (and you!) Meghan Murphy was kind enough to answer some of my questions!

James Cameron’s Avatar crosses genres, and Kelly has a tough time pegging it as one in particular and an even tougher time answering its central moral question.

Tobias Hill is the author of a tale set in modern day Sparta where terror never died. The Hidden made it to the number 2 spot on the recent Best Books of 2009 list for a good reason: you’ll be thinking about it long after you’ve finished reading. I had the opportunity of asking Mr. Hill a few questions about himself and his work.

Tails is a webcomic about Ethan Young, a young man who has problems just like the rest of us, and some problems on top of that. (…)
