People who read web comics are the same as those who write them... While it is true that people who create webcomics are extremely likely to read a lot of other webcomics, it isn't so that creators are the only readers. In my own experience, the number of readers who aren't artists outnumber the nu...

At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have our revenge.

Hmmm.... Since lunchtime, Scott's received an awful lot of votes, putting him up to 61% to 38% over the bear. There are 2502 votes as I type this. I think there were somewhere around 1600 or maybe 1900 when I looked earlier today. Is there any evidence of voter fraud in this system? Or were the earl...

And now 50% Scott; 49% Bear! The excitement mounts!

Not so fast! As of this moment, the poll's at 49% Scott, 50% bear. (The remaining 1% have presumably voted Nader.)

So, will the black & while layer be transparent to allow the color layer below to show through? Effectively inks on top and colors below?

Even so, I have NO experience with Flash, so can't answer your question anyway. Just curious.

It is a common recommendation to writers, but I heard it (in different phrasings and contexts) from both my college creative writing and drama professors that, while the start of a story may stretch back for a very long time before the telling begins, the dramatic action should always open as late a...

I don' t know- Did they fail Schulz? I've been reading a book of interviews with Schulz and I know that they hired him to work at the art school he took courses from. I don't remember him failing prior to that. Could be my memory, though. Edit: If this link works , he doesn't say that the art school...

I don't know. Seems like a valid art test to me.

And then I noticed that Eric posted a panel.

Available at comic shops today: The first issue of Superman: Strength written by Scott McCloud with art by Aluir Amancio and Terry Austin, wrapped up in a cover by Alex Ross.

Read more about it in an interview with Scott McCloud at Comic Book Resources from late October.

The 3-page comic as it was by the time I left can be seen in this photo.

Google's news has picked up on Will Eisner's passing. Here are a plethora of articles. Good to see the mainstream press picking up on this.

Now I wouldn't change the lettering couse my hand lettering is total crap (we want to keep it readable). I have a theory that if somebody has enough hand-eye coordination to draw, then they should have at least the same ability to letter. Remember that lettering is a skill which separate and apart ...

I think in this case, words are inadequate and you have to rely on comics.

What I find very interesting about your digital art is how closely it resembles your print comics' artwork. The full-color covers especially so.

Ryan, you are like unto a god among men.

"Great?" Must be the fatigue talking.

I think it's best to follow Napoleon's battle plan.

Groovy.

I think asking for $5 to $10 as a donation is reasonable. If you're distributing it for free and if you allow others to distribute it- and potentially modify it- as well, you may want to think about the GNU General Public License . That may not be what you're going for, but it's a place to start rea...

Hopefully this isn't like one of those "lifetime achievement" things that you get when your career is over or dead.

So, if spam were presented in comic form, would people be more inclined to read it? Behold, the power of comics!

Yeah, it's almost a shame to send it to the cornfield.
