The Gloomers first webisode is live even though the new series and the corresponding online community is still locked behind closed doors. The team plans to invite the first round of people into a private beta next month.

In the meantime, join the The Gloomers group on Facebook to see the exclusive Valentine’s Day cartoon now.

The Gloomers are the perfect antidote for the doom-and-gloom of the current state of things, where no matter how bad things are for you, for the Gloomers, it’s always worse! Dreamed up by Dan Mechem and featuring the work of Flintstones animator Mark West, this gloomy clan is sure to make you laugh and also touch your heart.

Last night in San Francisco, Dan Mechem and company hosted a special “preview” party for employees, partners, friends, and investors.

I’ll let the pictures tell the rest of story…
