Hey Friday Freakster,


Freaky Freaky Fridays Christmas Special
I am excited to share with you the very exciting Christmas Special episode of Freaky Freaky Fridays.  This is a movie length comic, so strap yourselves in for one fantastic ride.

Note that because of its length, I have divided it into two parts.  This is part one.

I want to dedicate this story to all the lovely people all over the world who have supported me, encouraged me and helped me with my dreams of being an artist and a storyteller.  I appreciate you more than you know.

Okay, without more jibber jabber, here is your extra special Friday webcomic  Enjoy!

Daniel :-)

Freaky Freaky Fridays comic strip now featuring in Meli Magazine

Freaky Freaky Fridays comic strip now featuring in Meli Magazine

Hello Freaky Freaky Fridays fanatic!

Guess what?  Your favourite comic characters are now having an adventure in Meli Magazine.

They're going to be teaching readers about the importance of organic food and living...

As well as keeping their very quirky and freaky dynamic... naturally!

Oh, the play on words.  If I were a dad I'd be looking for a "Dad's Annual Joke Award" for that one.

Anyway, if you'd like to read this adventure I've created especially for the magazine, you can do so at: http://www.melimagazine.tv

You can also check out a funky Summer 'Spot the Difference' game I created for the publication.

Your friend in oddities,

Daniel :-P

Need a little help for my new comic I am creating...

Hello my faithful fans and friends, I hope you can help me.


I'm reaching out to you, like...

I'm a super villain holding on to the edge of a cliff after we have just done battle, and you are a super hero with Golden Age of Comics morals who cannot let me die despite holding the city, nay the world, nay the universe, ransom with my oversized death ray which is not making up for anything thank you very much.  That sort of reaching out, kind of.

So dear friends.  Don't let me die friends.  Please.  Well... Not literally die mind you, rather creatively die.  Well, not so much 'creatively die', but can you please help me make my comic just that little bit better.

That was so long winded you'd think I was Hugh Grant.  And in a way, aren't we all Hugh Grants inside?

No.  We aren't.

As you no doubt know, I am creating a new comic based on some of the characters appearing in my book The Last King of Shambhala.  In fact, if you are a long time reader, you would know that here and there I've kept you in the loop about my progress.

I started with quite realistic depictions of the characters.  See:
http://thelastkingofshambhala.blogspot.com.au/2013/04/early-conceptuals-for-last-king-of.html

But then quickly moved toward a Tintin inspired look.  See:
http://thelastkingofshambhala.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/my-secret-to-giving-character-to-my.html

And now, I want your input.  Below I've got two versions, one very much inspired by Herge's Tintin (a modern day version without the racism), and one inspired by the version inspired by Herge's Tintin (the one that looks a bit more realistic).

If you could write in the comments, or email me at danielgrantnewton @ gmail . com I would be so so so so appreciative.  So appreciative, I might do something cool and crazy on this blog to show my appreciation.

Launching DGN Productions soon...

Hello there friends in cyber-land.  Thought I'd let you in on a new project I am launching.  It is called DGN Productions, and will essentially be an online hub for my art, novels and comics.  Pretty exciting stuff!  

I'll let you know more closer to the date (early March).  In the meantime, here is a design motif I will use throughout the website.  I finished designing it last night and you are the first peeps to see it!  - Daniel
