App-of-the-Year-2015-iPad-620x419Electricomics doesn’t get mentioned here on moorereppion.com as often as it should, especially considering that for the last two and a bit years it’s been both Leah’s main project and her full time job. That, of course, is precisely why it doesn’t get mentioned; Leah’s the expert on the whole thing, the one knee-deep in all the decisions, wranglings, meetings and so on, and also the one already attending conferences, giving presentations, tweeting, blogging, and Facebooking about the whole thing.

What is Electricomics? Electricomics is a free digital comics self-publishing ecosystem, which not only allows you to read high quality experimental digital comics via iPad App and (since December) Desktop Reader, but also to create and publish your own comics using the Generator. It was all Alan Moore’s idea.

Electricomics is something a lot of people have worked very, very hard on but none harder than Leah. Yes, I’m biased but I genuinely believe that without all her hard work the project never would have made it on to peoples’ screens.

Last week the iPhone app was named the 19th best iOS app of 2015 by the Guardian, and it has just been announced as the winner of Pipedream Comics’ Best Digital Comic app of 2015.

I’m proud to have been involved in a small way in Electricomics, but much more than that I am incredibly proud of my missus and everything she’s put into the project. If you haven’t already done so, please do download it and check it out.
