As we've previously mentioned, Derek Kirk Kim is a real hyphenate. Note only is his webcomic TUNE going strong towards a Fall 2012 collection, but he's just finished posting to YouTube 9 episodes of MYTHOMANIA, a parallel video series following cartoonist Andy Go and his millennial adventures.And now it has a poster!

This rollicking space acventure updates every Tuesday. Creator Victor Kerlow is best known for his illustrations in the New Yorker and elsewhere, but once in a while he gifts us with one of his excellent comics.

A little All Saints' Day grave remembrance from the LA Times and Mimi Pond. Pond's upcoming graphic memoir about the Bay area counterculture, OVER EASY, is due from Drawn & Quarterly one of these days.

If Heidi Klum is the queen of Halloween costumes, Emily Carroll is now the queen of Halloween webcomics. Following last year's "His Face All Red" Carroll has created MARGOT'S ROOM, an interactive comic that is guaranteed to give you the creeps. Read the poem on the first page and then click in the proper order on the main image...if you read this after dark we DARE you not to feel a chill.

More spooky webcomic from Tor.com. This one is by Jim Ottaviani and Sean Bieri and it's about ZOMBIE KITTENS.

Quite a few holiday-themed strips are up at Johnson's EXTRA-LIFE webcomic.

Another haunted webcomic, this time Red Light Properties Dan Goldman's creepy series about a real estate agency that specializes in cleaning up then selling haunted houses. Cory Doctorow gave it a big plug the other day:

We've previously plugged Terry LaBan's MUKTUK WOLFSBREATH, HARD BOILED SHAMAN because it's a hardboiled detective story about love, metaphysics, and obsession set among reindeer-herding tribesmen in the chilly forests of Siberia. Best elevator pitch ever! Terry writes to let us know the story is wrapping up soon, so there's still time to jump on board the reindeer.

HABE writes with some links to webcomics suitable for the spooky season, starting with his own anthology The Midnight Tea Party, a Goth Lolita collection of tales, and "Fairy Soup" illustrated by Ashley Cope, creator of Unsounded (below).

Continuing today's trend of Ed Piskor webcomics at hugely successful blogs, his new strip Brain Rot is now running at Boing Boing, the memaw of all blogs. Piskor's Wizzywig, a comic about the history of hacking, recently wrapped, and the new one looks to be both personal and created in a style to ape aging Silver Age comics.

Engadget, the hugely popular tech blog, is now running comics by Box Brown, Dustin Harbin, Ed PIskor and more. The comics will eventually appear on the Distro app and the web. Given the subject matter, an eventual appearance on Tumblr/refrigerator doors seems likely.
