Blog@ is extremely pleased to announce that we’ll be hosting Egg Embry’s “Global Freezing” webcomic from the beginning starting tomorrow. The strip, which will run on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, has been running at Embry’s own “Comics By Egg” at www.comicsbyegg.com.
By way of intro . . .
Here legends begin “Before the world froze…”
Everyone knows the sun is there even if no one has it seen since winter began. Every religion tells
of the good living on in the burning Summer and sinners imprisoned in the coldest Winter. Men are
as rare a find as fire in the morning. Food is caught, not grown. Only those that are built cold
survive. And every person knows, with certainty, that if you travel far enough south you will find The
Warmth.JAIA’s village slipped beneath the ice one night. Almost alone in this world, she lets her feet carry
her south to something that no one can be certain of – hope.
Check back tomorrow when the opening installment of Global Freezing sets in at Blog@!

I would like to thank Troy for initiating this and all those who have read my work for the last year. I am excited to bring Global Freezing to Newsarama! It is very cool to get to play to such a large audience.

I’m afraid I found the comic bewildering. For instance, it took me some time to figure out that there were four voices conversing in the scene with Jaia, Keesa, and the “dog” White–the fourth being the voice inside Jaia’s head, which I think has not yet been explained.
The art makes me wonder if this is coming out of some strange lesbian furry fantasy subculture.
