Thanks for the mention! I will always welcome free advertisement! However, there may be a bit of confusion with what exactly Super Fantastica is…
Super Fantastica is a mini comics anthology with a web presence (i.e. a website). There are no comics located on the site itself. Instead, you can find the books at comic shops that are gracious enough to carry mini comics.
However, being the EIC/publisher of SFC, doesn’t mean I don’t have a webcomic. Hell, everyone has a webcomic nowadays! My webcomic is located at bewilderedkid.com, accompanied by a blog and news on other projects.
Just wanted to clarify the plug a little. Thanks! BTW, it was great meeting you at the con, Fes!
