So, my first appearance at a comics convention went pretty well. I only sold two copies of Nathan Sorry but more importantly I had a blast hanging out with my Sketch Charlotte buddies, Tom Davidson and Eraklis Petmezas. And I got a taste of what it’s like sitting on the other side of the table [...]

My First Con Appearance
Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009This coming Sunday, December 27th, I’ll be making my first ever appearance at a comic convention as a creator. The Charlotte Comic-Con is a small local convention of which I’ve never attended but have heard good things about. I’ll be there with Tom Davidson and Eraklis Petmezas of the Sketch Charlotte crew and I’ll be [...]
Nathan Sorry Banners
Monday, December 7th, 2009Recently I ran my first ever ad campaign on the ad network Project Wonderful for my online graphic novel, Nathan Sorry. It was fairly successful, I guess. Didn’t bring in a ton of visitors or increase my regular traffic significantly but I know it brought in at least a couple of new readers and that’s [...]
Follow Nathan Sorry on Twitter
Sunday, September 6th, 2009I’m trying a fun little experiment as a way of promoting this comic as well as adding a little more to the story outside of the comic itself. I created a new Twitter account: @NathanSorry which will consist of Nathan’s own thoughts during the lost two month period from 9/11 to the time he shows [...]
Warren Ellis Reads Nathan Sorry
Friday, July 3rd, 2009The coolest thing happened yesterday. Warren Ellis, acclaimed writer of such comics as The Authority and Planetary, mentioned my comic, Nathan Sorry, on his blog: Rich Barrett is 16pp into a creepy online graphic novel called NATHAN SORRY that looks like it’s going to turn into something fun. You don’t get better press than that. [...]
Nathan Sorry, Page 16
Friday, June 26th, 2009Two pages in one month. I think that’s officially a record for me. Anyway, a new page is up, continuing the hotel bar scene which will continue for another couple of pages giving us some important information about Pryor’s grand plan, the secret of “James Goode” and what a pathetic sap poor Nathan can be [...]
Nathan Sorry, page 15
Thursday, June 11th, 2009Just posted the latest page of Nathan Sorry, in which two guys talk in a bar at the Hilton. High octane excitement! Adventure comics! This scene will probably go on like this for a couple more pages but it’s an important (and hopefully interesting) part of the story. Check it out here and be sure [...]
Some Nathan Sorry mentions on the web
Monday, June 1st, 2009In the past couple of weeks, my webcomic, Nathan Sorry, has received some nice attention from various webcomic-focused websites so I thought I would share those links here. My whole coming-out-party for Nathan Sorry started when I posted a link to it on this thread on Warren Ellis’ Whitechapel forum. Ellis, a hugely popular comic [...]
Nathan Sorry page 14
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009Wow, I’m on a roll now. All the new traffic and great feedback I’ve gotten on my ongoing webcomic Nathan Sorry has helped me keep moving on it and I’ve actually managed to get a new page up in a matter of weeks. Hope to keep the momentum going. Take a look. Tweet
New page added to Nathan Sorry
Friday, April 24th, 2009Sometimes I wish I wasn’t so busy with design work, fatherhood and other miscellania so that I could be a little quicker with adding new pages to my ongoing webcomic, Nathan Sorry. I’ve just posted page 13 and hope to keep the momentum going right into page 14. Read Nathan Sorry, page 13 Tweet
