Hundreds of pages of free online comics will be available soon with a new issue added each week. Each issue will be announced via Twitter so follow me, you buncha saps.
Eventually, every issue of Ralph Snart Adventures, Weird Melvin and Doctor Gorpon will be online. And what does the creator Marc Hansen get in return? Why, simply the humble satisfaction that comic book readers everywhere are able to enjoy his wares. Okay, so there's ads on the site - nothing's free, remember that. Each comic will feature brand new digital coloring by Marc Hansen himself, which is of a much higher quality than the filthy, scanned comic books typically seen the on web (ick). All of the images are specifically optimized for the web, so there's no waiting for grossly obese images to download to your browser. The web app will work great on your iPad too.

Created, written and drawn by Marc Hansen, Ralph Snart Adventures was published from 1986-1993 by now defunct comic book company NOW Comics, and was the longest running comic in the entire NOW catalog, selling an average of 50,000 copies a month during that nine year period - over 1 million comic books total were circulated. It began Warner newsstand distribution in 1989 and received the Comics Code Authority seal of approval (no easy feat when the main character is a beer-guzzling nutjob). Today, new material is being created by Marc Hansen in print and as free comics online. New and old comics are for sale at his comic book store online. He's put out four trade paperbacks, and a new comic book series that began in July, 2008, with almost 275 pages of new material since 2003.
