Creators

Braden D Lamb
(creator and illustrator)
Originally from the Seattle area, now living in the Boston area. Also available in suede.

Vincent LaBate
(writer and letterer)
Kitty Hawk is written by a small paper automaton, crafted by a team of origami masters out of a heavily edited copy of the Oxford English Dictionary and an Arby’s menu. This enterprise cost over thirteen billion dollars and is generally considered to have been extremely wasteful.

When not writing or applying letters to the comic, the unit takes classes at the University of Massachusetts and enjoys watching sumo wrestling. A weblog is maintained at the Elephant on its behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Man, why is your FAQ so out of date?

A:  I am updating it right now!

Q: When is Kitty Hawk updated?

A: Every Wednesday and Friday, usually some time between midnight and five AM.

Q: But it used to be different?

A:  Quite astute, dear reader!  If you’ve been browsing the archives, you’ll have noticed that the first two chapters were published in weekly two-page micro-issues, and in a larger format.

Q: What is “The Sting of Defeat”?

A: “The Sting of Defeat” is an eight page promotional mini-comic written and drawn by Braden, sold from time to time at comic conventions.  It is also available as a downloadable ebook in the store!

Q: Is it canon?

A:  Nnnnnnot quite.  It predates the first comics that appear on the site, and features many events which may or may not happen.  It may also contain some spoilers, although it’s hard to say, non-canon as it is.  In any case, don’t go blabbing if you think you’ve learned some secrets!  At best you’ll be issuing spoilers–at worst, you’ll look like a fool when we pull a switcheroo on you.

Q: Will it still be available in print?

A:  You may be able to pick it up on paper at any comic convention you track us down at, and it may also appear as supplementary material in a larger print collection at some point in the future.  However, it is unlikely that it will be offered as a stand-alone, hard copy item here in the store.

Q: How can I support Kitty Hawk?

A: We hope to have a store up some time in the next few months.  In the mean time, the best thing you can do is spread the word!  Helping to build an audience is the gift that keeps on giving!
