While it’s all over the net but you still are curious about these bills and want to learn more about what exactly SOPA and PIPA are, then I have attached a link to an article that explains the kinda nuts and bolts. You can find it here

I know I have mentioned the new site a few times, but still really have nothing to show for it. I admit I fell behind after a nasty DB error brought my work to a halt, but I have been very productive the last couple of weeks and hopefully will have the new site up and running soon. We will be adding all kinds of new things…That includes comics as well. Last year we finalized plans with a very talented and well established artist who has been in the comics game for some time and Darkstar will be the exclusive home of one of his many titles when the site relaunches, so we are very psyched for that. However, we still have an open roster spot and we are still very much looking for our next member of the Darkstar family…So I shall you refer you to our submission page located here in case you or a friend are interested in placing your name or comic in the hat!

Next up is our convention schedule…We currently only have 2 conventions planned for 2012, and this is because I have been doing cons non-stop since 05. Now early on I was helping out for a certain anime company, but after that I went into webcomics and have been non-stop since then (this of course doesn’t include when I was just an attendee back from 99-03). So we are just doing two this year…One being Katsucon since we count that as the last con of the 2011 season…Yeah I know it’s 2012, but it’s just how our stuff works. The other convention will be our hometown convention Animazement (pending application review) to close it all out. We are not just doing this to take a break, but also to re-organize for our return in 2013, when we will finally start expanding out west. We aren’t sure which cons we will hit just yet, but we are open to suggestions so let us know or let your local cons know you want to see us there and maybe they will give us a ring haha.

Finally…2011 was a great year for Darkstar…Our viewership doubled, which means we also received more feedback on the site and our comics, which I can happily say was mostly positive. We don’t try and pretend to be something we’re not….We just want to draw comics and hope in that process that you folks find them enjoyable because without you guys we wouldn’t really be having this conversation….So from the bottom of our hearts here at Darkstar…Thank you and we hope you have a great 2012!

I’m not even kidding, I’ve just wrapped up moving a few days shy of Christmas, and geez, this year I can honestly say that it snuck up on me. I know most of you must be either busy doing Chistmassy things, or setting up watches for the big man in red, so I’ll make this quick. I hope all you folks have a wonderful Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanza, Winter Solstace, and/or whichever other celebration I may have missed in my casual cultural insensivity. But seriously, I hope all you guys have a wonderful Holiday and stay both safe and contented. Thanks for reading, Happy Holidays, and Merry Christmas from all of us here at Darkstar!

Ryan was awesome to do up a post on his page so i’m just using it for the front page (with my edits…so yes it may sound weird haha). This is all the awesome new stuff we are offering starting now just in time for the Christmas rush! However, one cool thing is now you can get 5% off when you use the code “happyholidays” during check out! Now here is a up close an personal view of all our new items!

Our very own “Team Edward” shirt. That’s right everybody, now you can wear that favorite shirt no matter how cold it might get, as it is now officially a hoodie. Ingenious, no?

As an entirely new addition to this year’s new shirts, we present  THIS amazingly bold display of spiral power. It’s no secret we here at Darkstar are massive Gurren Lagann enthusiasts, and now you can partake in said enthusiasm.. With an Apple spin of all things!

And on to our final newcomer..

Car Golf. Yes, Car Golf. A phrase inspired by our very own comics here at Darkstar. Fajita has given birth to a number of quirky pastimes, and Car-Golf is certainly not the least of them. And now you can support Supernatural Sportsmanship with your very own “All American Car Golf” shirt! Oh, snap! Or rather.. FORE!

Our new products are up for Pre-Order until December 6th, and with Christmas just around the corner, what better way to support your favorite webcomickers, right? And speaking of webcomics, I just word of THIS: BAM!

It’s Fajita’s first full size 16″ by 20″ Poster, and it’s a sight to behold! A must-have for any hardcore Fajitamite. Heck, we’re planning to get one for ourselves here! Anyways, feel free to give the Store a peak and see if anything of the amazingness catches your eye.

My purpose for posting this and getting involved is merely to help raise awareness and remind people that early detection is crucial. So…For the rest of October Darkstar has changed it’s logo to pink in hopes to help raise awareness.
