In this extra-sized episode of Thunder Punch Daily I catch up on where I’ve been, how I’ve been playing Don’t Tip the Waiter for the last month, how I’ve tried to fix that with the help of David Seah, and a few new thoughts on using Tumblr and Posterous as a part of your balanced comics publishing.

Thunder Punch Daily 140 – Crunch Time Sets Me Free

Podcasts, Thunder Punch Daily / / , ,

Thunder Punch Daily 88 – Gently Down The Stream

Podcasts, Thunder Punch Daily / / ,
