Length: 22:08

Synopsis: Ten Ton Hammer's fourth episode of Loading... Live sees Comics Artist William "JoBildo" Murphy join as a guest. JoBildo has written plenty of Ten Ton Hammer guides and articles for Age of Conan and Warhammer Online, but last summer we found he had a talent that set him apart: web comics. Starting with the Age of Conan-themed "Lost in Hyboria" and continuing into WoW's "Goob & Begud" and the MMO news-themed "Geeked", JoBildo traces his journey, names his inspirations, and tells aspiring artists how to get started and then get noticed!
