So can somebody fill me in on Ten2Midnight? Is it a joke? Performance art? I don't understand what's happening here.
See, it's supposed to be a post-apocalyptic zombie comic. The authors and/or artists - I don't know who is who - keep putting up posts about rewrites and working hard the next page and so forth ... but there's only been three pages posted since 12/26/08. There was a post making excuses for page four back on the 2/5. Page three, on the other hand, was a single panel - five skyscraper tops, a weird looking sun, and a single line of text. Which went live with the wrong line of text and had to be corrected like two days later.
I mean, the site looks fully fleshed out, and the thing got pimped in early project stages by some fairly well known strip (though I can't remember which). So I don't get it - is this being done by comic people and it's my bad for not knowing their names? People with such Whedon-esque cults of personality that fans are drooling at the very promise of content? Or is it some elaborate prank, and they're just seeing how long they can keep this up before readership drops to zero?
If this is a genuine webcomic, by some people with a good idea and no following as of yet, I guess that's cool, and I wish them luck. But I really hope they actually get it together, because right now there's a whole lot of smoke and no fire. I haven't seen this kind of thing since Gone with the Blastwave.
