STARVED FOR ATTENTION

08/29/01: STARVED FOR ATTENTION: HAROLD AND MAY - What do Zack Smith, Salman Rushdie, Scott Shaw! and Peter Parker's Aunt have in common? Find out in this week's installment of Starved For Attention.

08/15/01: STARVED FOR ATTENTION: Myron Lantz, Catchphrase Writer to the Stars - Don't ask me to explain this one. Zack Smith has a gift. If only he'd use it for good instead of evil. This week's special art guest: Mike Norton.

08/08/01: STARVED FOR ATTENTION: THOR'S HAMMER GETS STOLEN - This week Zack Smith gives us a very special SFA, as the Norse God of Thunder, Thor, listens to his brother, Loki. This week's special art guest: Walt Simonson.
05/29/01: PREVIEW: STARVED FOR ATTENTION - ZACK SMITH IS... STARVED, FOR ATTENTION! Now what you always hesitantly suspected of the boy is proven correct (well, perhaps not all that you suspected...). You see, we wanted to preview some of the hilarity that will ensue (and hilarity will ensue, dammit) so we devised this clever little promotional poster. Now, we're not saying you should go and post it everywhere, annoying every webmaster, message board admin, and comics creator in existence. To quote John Lennon, "We was just saying."

GUTTER PRESS: Fun articles that don't take themselves terribly seriously
10/24/00: POPROCKS: BLUE MONDAY - This soundtrack is not going to surprise you if you know the comic and the music, or Chynna Clugston-Major for that matter. But don't let that stop you from reading along with Chynna as she takes a trip through the music that inspired and is a part of the cult-hit BLUE MONDAY. New & Improved Re-Release version of last week's article, now with bonus graphics!
08/08/00: BEYOND: KAZAR - The Jungle Lord archetype explored. By Loki Carbis
