End of the Road for PV Comics?
January 8th, 2006
I just noticed that PV Comics, the webcomic collective I was helping with in 2004, seems to have closed up shop.
We here at PV Comics would like to thank you for the support and readership we’ve enjoyed since our launch two years ago. We’re taking a step back for a while, and wanted to take a second to thank everyone involved – creator and reader alike!
It looks like you can still read all the comics that were published there, as well as check out the sites to most of the 20 listed PV Comics alumni.
What you won’t be able to see anymore are some of the CSS techniques I used when putting the site together. It was the second site I designed using the CSS Imagemaps technique that I developed into an A List Apart article called Night of the Image Map. The first site was Nate Piekos’ Dead Ends, Massachusetts which gave me an excuse to use the spooky theme.

That’s too bad.
So does this mean my issue of PV Comics #1 is now officially a collector’s item?
Yeah, Stuart…sorry. I gutted your code.
The site closure appears to be temporary, so there should be more stuff in the future, as well as more use of your pioneering codework. Thievery!

I hadn’t visited PV regularly in a long time. I think all of the people who had been contributing and are still publishing work have their own websites now.
Are the people of PV comics focusing their attention more at their Comixpress company now?
