My web comic is Spell Check. Inspired by "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" story, it's about a gal that ends up doing tech support for magic.

I'm just getting started, and the site is still under construction, and some of the images are huge downloads. Sorry, I'll work on that. Thing is, I don't want to sacrifice image quality.

Plus, what makes my web-comic unique is that I'm using lots of transparent PNG's overlaid to make things a little more dynamic and interactive. (You can thank Scott McCloud for that... LOL)

Note that IE6 doesn't display transparent PNG's properly. So, if you see solid color squares around the characters, upgrade, or try Firefox.

Yes, I could use Flash, but I can't afford the developer software. I think Javascript can do the trick, especially after seeing what Google does with it.

I have some really cool special effects and interactive ideas on the way, just gotta figure out some good coding for it all.

Until then, enjoy what I have so far by clicking here:

Cartoonists NorthWest!!!! where I hang out a lot...

It's because of Cartoonists NW that I started this comic. They're a group of top-notch cartoonists, some famous, that are willing to help us newbies in every area of cartooning. Art, humor, writing, etc.

If you want to be a cartoonist, and you live near Seattle, THIS is the group to hang out with. Though the forum is available to anyone.

Spell Check looks really good. Like i said, i really dig those contemporary takes like that. You ever see that episode of Dave the barbarian when they use the wizards crystal ball to surf the internet and rack up all those charges? Aw man, good stuff.

RE: Spell Check #7 is onlline

Your art style is amazing. And I'm starting to have the same problem with your comic that some of my readers have with my comic - not enough updates fast enough! ;-)
