There’s only 3 things you can do in the comic book industry. Setting aside formats, genres, delivery,for a minute: 3 things. 1: Work for 7-8 publishers. 2: find a rich guy (one rich guy or small pub headed by rich guy) 3: self-publish (crowdfund, etc). That’s it. It’s not easy, good luck.

I started drawing comics when I was 16 and ever since then I’ve tried to do other jobs but I always thought about making comics while I was at the other jobs and it made me want to die.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.
Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

In theory it should be obvious that if you have a really bad sinus infection it can spread to your eyes. I never thought about it before but I sure have thought about it now. Ha ha ha. This year was really hard for me.

I see people throwing themselves in front of armored feds on the streets. People pushing to get close to Broadview ICE to stop the evil horrors inside & out. Regular people are throwing themselves into the path of danger daily & their reward is to have their health care taken away by rich cowards

Ahem, tattoo artists already draw tattoo concept for free. Instead of paying money for a design by someone who doesn’t tattoo, which will probably have to be redrawn to make it tattooable anyway, just come to your tattoo shop. It’s our job!!!

when people are like why don’t you date it’s because I am looking for someone with extensive thoughts on Goya’s disasters of war. Someone who has “seen every episode of the office” is something I don’t need to pollute myself with. I have a fixed and immutable amount of days above the ground.
