Okay, I’ll admit I’m a Canadian. It’s something I was born with, I’m not bragging or anything…
And as a result of all that Canadian blood in my veins, and stuff, y’all know that I’m the writer for a new mini-series from Moonstone Books featuring Johnny Canuck and the heroes of the NORTHERN GUARD, all based on the Canadian Golden Age comic book heroes….
but did y’all know that my wife, the lovely and talented KT SMITH, is the letterer for ANOTHER Canadian superhero series, an online extravaganza called HEROES OF THE NORTH? And they JUST put up the latest issue of the online comic and the latest episode of the online live-action series.
You heard me right, snow-heroes…HOTN has downloadable comics, live action webisodes, and more, and it’s great fun. Click here to bathe in the rich, bacony goodness of heroism amidst the tundra fur trappers. (Click HERE to join their Facebook Fan Page)
Ty the Guy OUT!
Here now, your comic book moment of zen:
HOTN looks quite cool. We may have to siphon some time away from Ty’s work to enjoy someone else’s now…
Cheers!

I didn’t see this mentioned among the other “Canadian Superheroes” posts: The Red Panda. Not a comic strip, a “radio series” (i.e., podcast). Excellent production values, mostly done-in-one stories to allow new listeners, and characters who grow and develop (and grow on you) over time. Sort of a Canadian version of The Shadow/The Green Hornet. http://www.decoderringtheatre.com .
Sorry if we’ve given the Red Panda short shrift around here. We are aware of, and LOVE the Red Panda here at Art Land central. And if you head over to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l86ByB1tNoQ you can hear a thrilling “Red Panda” like adventure starring HOVERBOY (our local radio star!).
