NeoCTC

NeoCTC Cast Page


The Cross Time Cafe started in 2003 as a one-time collaboration between several webcomic artists:

The artists gave each other permission to use their characters to draw for the CTC. It soon developed an unexpected propensity for growth, attacting other artists (Bill Redfern, Kathy Garrison, Scott Malcomson, Manic Wolfman), and even artwork by fans and members of the Cross Time Cafe forums. Characters from the comics, and avatars of the members of the forum, started to make guest appearances and become part of the CTC cast.

The CTC forum outlasted several shared webcomic platforms, and finally became its own website. The artists invited several other webcomic artists to start dedicated forum spaces, even if the characters were not part of the CTC cast.

The Neolithic Cross Time Cafe was started by one of the forumites, Sleepy John, as a place where his stick-figure CTC art could be posted as well as in the CTC itself.

The Cross Time Cafe stopped updating in 2017, but the NeoCTC continues to post new content.
