I use: "I'm sorry, we don't accept telephone solicitations." Then, if they persist, I cut them off as gently as possible. I really have nothing against the people who work those soul-crushing jobs (or against Richard Dreyfus, for that matter), it's the system that employs them that I hate, hence the...

But I'm a bit lost too. My daughter and I were trying to decipher the "conversation" between the parallelogram and the circle... No luck though. Hopefully Scott McC. will check in and enlighten us a bit! Hmm... Sorry that wasn't clearer. Anyone else want to take a guess, though? I would hate to dic...

I'm sorry, but I simply have to know, where was it going? Apparently nowhere, but it was fun while it lasted. Neil Gaiman pointed out that by my definition, it wasn't even comics -- just a single row of dancing robots. Meadow was the only one so far that had some overall planning, though I often ha...

Thanks, Greg!
Thank you for putting this together, Greg! As with the RC forum, I may only be able to post occasionally, but I'll look forward to reading any thoughts on the Improv that readers may have. Mind you, I don't expect this part of the board to be too busy. After all, feedback is usually generated by how...

I noticed that Jim uses the oval selection tool for balloons which sometimes leaves some unnecessary white space. Here's an alternate method I use Adobe Illustrator to accomplish.

if you change or remove or 'reinvent' any of their defining characteristics (e.g. the page as narrative unit), they stop being comics So <a href="http://www.davidgaddis.com/piercing.html">this,</a> <a href="http://e-sheep.com/spiders/01/">this</a> and <a href="http://www.demian5.com/">this</a> are ...
