Last year David Reddick excited fans with a teaser about Legend of Bill webcomic.
David gave us only a bit more to dwell on:
It seems Legend of Bill will become a Comics Kingdom web exclusive –
I don’t think this is an indication of newspaper print syndication (yet).
David already does Intelligent Life for Comics Kingdom and
is the backup artist for John Marshall on King Features’ Blondie.

TV Tropes lets us in on the background of the strip:
Legend of Bill
is a webcomic started in 2008 by David Reddick. It started as a Gag Per Day Webcomic, albeit not being a daily issue, but gradually turned into a grandiose epic featuring dozens of characters. Some of the recurring characters even led to two spinoffs: Barwench Tales and The Gnome Syndicate.
The story’s main characters are Bill, an overly buff guy with a bit of a child mind as The Hero, and Frank, a blue dragon as the Lancer.
The premise starts as Bill, an accounting clerk tired of his daily job as a pencil pusher, decides to start a new life as a Barbarian Hero. Hilarity Ensues.
More from David’s blog of 2008.
David created, wrote, and drew Legend of Bill 2008 – 2012
then passed it on to Kevin Vassey and Don Kuehn.
Now the return of Legend of Bill also features the return of the creator.
