Welcome to Disappointmentville, USA.

A good friend of mine, Dylan Duarte, teamed up with his artist buddy Jeff Morin to create the new webcomic. It’s still a work in progress, but it gives us a glimpse into what it’s like living in a small town in California where the majority of the residents aren’t exactly experts on technology and newer developments. Dylan describes life in Lake County as a series of disappointments, hence the name of the web comic. I anticipate the same style of small town humour as what we get from programs like Corner Gas, except, you know, American.

Dylan is a budding freelance writer, not unlike myself, whereas Jeff Morin is more inclined toward the graphical side of things. The difference between Dylan and me, though, is that I have more of a hankering for non-fiction and web-by kind of things, whereas Dylan wants to get into fiction. He’s already put together a few short films — which can be found on the Inner Nut Entertainment website — at the Disappointmentville web comic is the latest in this endeavour.

Look for updates every Tuesday.
