Boxcar Comics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boxcar Comics is a webcomic collective. It was founded in 2005 by Zach Miller, the author of Joe and Monkey, with 12 members. Soon after, Mitch Clem and Tom Brazelton, the authors of Nothing Nice To Say and Theater Hopper, respectively, left the Dayfree Press syndicate to join Boxcar.
On December 9th, 2005, member comic Niego concluded. Niego came out of hiatus on December 10, 2006, but is not currently part of the collective. The authors and the rest of the syndicate decided to give up Niego's spot on the roster, so it is probable that a new comic will join Boxcar in the near future.
Boxcar Comics has an online store, called Hoboutique, [1] that sells t-shirts and a calendar. All merchandising is handled by Miller.
Boxcar gets its name from the Jawbreaker song of the same title, on the suggestion of Mitch Clem, a friend of Miller and a great fan of Jawbreaker.
