	Comic creator: Scott Kurtz

		Scott does appear to be moving forward on this, and the fact that Jimmy Johnson is vouching for him does lend weight to his claims.
		Scott took a “beating” in the comments section last time this was mentioned, not for his position that the future of comics needs to be addressed, but for his public condemnation of professional cartoonists work, and in particular, the 640 members of the National Cartoonists Society.
		Kurtz boasts a daily readership of 100 thousand yet ignores a significant source of income by giving his content away for free in the hopes that enough t-shirts, plushies and mugs will be sold in order to afford him an income.

	PvP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kurtz said he made this offer because of his dissatisfaction with the terms offered to cartoonists by syndicates.
		Kurtz's Dad [34] - Although not a part of the official PvP Universe and therefore not normally seen with the other characters, Kurtz's dad, a German immigrant, occasionally appears in the comic to share his views on profanity, modern American culture, or whatever else happens to strike his fancy.
		Kurtz's dad usually says something quirkily funny ([35]) or talks about things which he does not know much about, which is followed by Kurtz himself saying "This is so going in the Strip!".

		KURTZ: Well she is the story, but there is a long tradition in journalism of not naming or identifying those who make accusations in sexual assault cases.
		KURTZ: I've also noticed that when reporters go to interview white students at Duke, they say, of course, these kids are being railroaded and when they go to interview fl students at the accuser's school, they get the opposite reaction.
		KURTZ: Next week, we'll go back to critiquing the flaws and foibles of the fallible press corps, but for one brief moment, these prizes, as self-congratulatory as they sometimes seem, remind us that the ancient technology of newspapers can also be a force for good.

	Scott Kurtz Offers PvP For Free \| Comixpedia
		Kurtz' plan was hatched from a desire to maintain total artistic and financial control over his creation while seeing it printed in newspapers.
		Kurtz expects that "[t]he exposure and prestige of PvP appearing in daily papers would more than pay for itself in a months [sic] time." This is a concept several cartoonists already established in the print field have a hard time comprehending.
		Scott is obviously in a very rare poistion - he has six years of newspaper-ready strips, a book deal with Image comics, a huge fan-base, and enough revenue from various sources to get by (or, at least it seems that way).

		Scott's a decent guy, but my initial reaction is, he doesn't know what he's talking about regarding the "sweet deal" syndicates are getting.
		Re: Scott Kurtz and the Futrue of syndication
		Kurtz is apparently as ignorant about newspapers, particularly editors, as he is about syndicates and syndication.

	Websnark: The frightening side of change: why syndicates don't like Scott Kurtz and Keen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Why syndicates don't like Scott Kurtz and Keen So I've been keeping an eye on how the Syndicated Cartoonist Industry is reacting to the slow -- but steady -- encroachment onto their turf by young turks with machetes.
		Kurtz should applauded for being able to take a dead-end medium like webcomics and make a living off of it, but Kurtz has found a hole in the print system and he is trying to exploit it at the expense of others.
		Then again, if what Kurtz and Keen are doing gets accepted as the norm, they'll just be hastening what has been happening slowly since the 1980s, and that's the final removal of comics from newspapers all together.

		So Scott, no one is taking away your achievement, someone is just trying to launch a way for it to be done in a grand scale as opposed to one comic at a time.
		Scott: Actually their model is to sell print copies of the online stuff that gets a lot of hits, and try to sell the movie rights.

		As Kurtz and Williams are both busy writing and drawing books of their own, it was clear that another artist was required for this project.
		Kurtz elaborated, "At the core, under all the trappings and references is a story about a loveable guy who's doing his best to please all of the important people in his life.
		While we had Kurtz on the spot, we also asked him about a project he had mentioned in a previous interview, "The Golden Agers." This was a book about a superhero retirement home that was to be written by Robert Kirkman ("Walking Dead," "Invincible") with Kurtz providing art.

		Adapting to ‘traditional’ comic writing [for Justin] was pretty easy; Scott and I both love superhero comics, and I’ve been writing and drawing a superhero kids comic, Ps238, for years now.” There is one joke, however, that Williams is desperate to squeeze into the series—if Kurtz ever lets his guard down.
		Scott and I are both big fans of the whole Stephen J. Cannell/Merv Griffin/Glen Larson era of ’80s TV, and we decided that they were due for an homage.
		Typically, Scott and I both sit down and figure out how the comic is going to begin, and how it’s going to end for that issue.

		Full Comment: Scott totally caught me off guard with my call being taken in the podcast in Episode 2, and if he continues to exercise this method in just randomly taking calls and ptting callers in line and so forth, the show could continue its exciting and interesting formula.
		Webcomic creators Scott Kurtz and Kris Straub talk with each other and their friends about TV shows, movies, and life in general.
		Something I should note for the benefit of strangers to Scott's style of discourse: sometime he will make what might be taken as fairly offensive statements, but he is not being serious; he is satirizing the people who do say that sort of thing seriously.

	STAPLE! Scott Kurtz Interview
		SCOTT KURTZ: Thank you, it's good to be here.
		KURTZ: PvP is a comic strip about being a geek in your 30s, never really having outgrown the follies of your youth, and hanging around with people of the same ilk.
		KURTZ: Well the whole Grapha-Maximo storyline — which is what you’re talking about — was kind of my commentary on, not the small press necessarily, but a mentality that kind of circulates around some alternative crowds, where it’s kind of an air of pretentiousness that their art is somehow more valid than everyone else’s art.
