Those of you keeping an ear to the ground in the webcomic community, you may have heard some chatter on this already.

Top Web Comics launched a new webcomic hosting site called Fables, to compete with the likes of Webtoon, GlobalComix, and others. Kickman was invited to be included in the initial launch.

Starting in just a few days (November 15th), they are launching a new community event, called “Where’s Pauly?” where their octopus mascot, Pauly, is hidden in a bunch of webcomics. There will be a list of participating titles, and each creator is hiding Pauly somewhere in two (2) of their old webcomic panels. The first person to find every hidden Pauly wins $500. And the next 5 people win $100.

Here’s the blurb about the event at the top of the Top Web Comics page:

Latest News:    With Fables up and running, it’s time that we have our first joint community event. it’s going to be a blast! On November 15th, we are going to release a list of participating series. Each of these series will hide Pauly somewhere in 2 of their episodes. Pauly is the little pink Octopus that serves as one of our mascots. Be sure to take notes where you find Pauly, on which episode for each series. The very first person to find ALL of the episodes where Pauly is hidden is going to win $500.
