Not only have I started posting regular updates to Escape From Planet Nowhere, I have also recently started a new webcomic called The Song of Xanthia.

It’s all all-ages fantasy comic that was inspired by my love of The Legend of Zelda. Go HERE to read more about the comic.

“Escape From Planet Nowhere” Returns on September 4th!

Otis Frampton — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 00:22:40 +0000

Okay, so I kinda disappeared there for a while.

A long while.

The last year since I moved back to Minnesota has been rockier than I anticipated and my webcomic work has been the thing that has suffered most. But something had to be put on the back burner while I built up my business, and unfortunately it meant that I had little time to visit Planet Nowhere.

That being said, I’ve been working on new pages and when the webcomic returns on September 4th, I should be a couple of months ahead of schedule.

Sorry for the long absence. See you next month.

New Fan Art

Otis Frampton — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 15:53:57 +0000

This post, like the new page, is long overdue. I received these wonderful pieces of fan art a while ago and kept forgetting to post it. My apologies to Dan and Mark.

First up we have a couple of mini versions of Sarge and the Horzon Destroyer created by Daniel Mead (aka StanlyDan on deviantART):

Dan also created this amazing 3D model of the Horzon Destroyer!

I’m actually surprised that it works in 3D! Kudos to Dan for getting my wonky drawings to translate in the three dimentions. Dan has hinted that he may create some kind of animation with this model. Stay tuned!

Next up is a great scene by illustrator Mark Harmon:

You can see some more Spacedock 7 fan art by Mark HERE.

Thanks guys!

Hello, It’s Me Again

Otis Frampton — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 18:05:20 +0000

So, yeah . . . unintended webcomic hiatus. It happens.

I apologize for the pause in production, but I’ll be back on track after this week. I had to take some time to catch up on commission work after moving to Minnesota (it set me back a lot more than I’d ever anticipated) and also to get set up for a new comic project intended for print. You can find out more about my new project HERE.

I’ll have a new page of Escape From Planet Nowhere posted this Sunday.

See you then!

Sarge Is Back!

Otis Frampton — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 00:44:03 +0000

It may have taken longer than I’d anticipated to get the webcomic back up and running after my big move, but Sarge is back and you can expect regular updates every Sunday from this point on!

Thanks for your patience and I hope you enjoy the next big action sequence that starts next week.
