Clan of The Cats - 10 Year Anniversary

[charles]

CLAN OF THE CATS
Turns 10 this Saturday the 20th of June


First page/strip of CoTC June 20th 1999

CoTC is an urban fantasy about a witch, Chelsea Chattan, who is also afflicted by an ancient family curse. In times of stress she transforms into a black panther. This, coupled by her increasing magical power, makes having an ordinary life rather challenging. The stories deal with supernatural themes mainly, but also creep into the realm of normal everyday life.

Beginning with the strip above and improving to it's current, amazing art work by Jamie Robertson, I followed CoTC for quite some time.  The Artist/Author is an amazing person who's continued the work despite numerous health problems over the course of the comic's life including repeated bouts of blindness.  His archives show work with a number of other popular web comic artists, many of whome have since ceased work while CoTC has continued it's epic journey.

The story has been amazing using a beautiful mix of drama and supernatural thriller with comedy in between and through the middle.  His current series, involving dracula, is by far his longest and showcases much of his greatest work.  He also created a side horror/thriller comic from the same universe called Melpomene and a news-paper type comedy strip focusing on the comedy of everyday life in the household of CoTC's werepanther witch and numerous cats.

So please join me in congratulating Jamie Robertson on putting 10 years of his life into sharing the tale of "Clan of The Cats" with us all.
