Saw this tiny twosome on my way to work. The wizard was a cautious grump, but the goblin seemed to be enjoying himself!

But “graphic novels” have been championed by book publishers, who do not have any business model to support serialized publishing.

Creator spotlight for Bob Thibeault in 4 panels. Top left features an illustrated avatar of Bob Top right is Bryan's answer to the question: Favorite part of working on this project? "This project helped me develop a process, making page template files, a palette, character designs in a fast efficient way. It also was nice to work with people looking over my work again." Bottomright shows an anthology sneak peak of a page from Bob's anthology comic LITTLE RED AND THE BIG SCARY WOLF showing a panel with Red's mom saying "Well this is it, Read. Ready to deliver this basket to Grandma's house?" Red reaches for the basket her mom holds out and replies, "Don't worry Mom. I got this!" The next panel shows red walking into the trees with her cat following and mom standing in front of their home in the background waving and saying "Good luck!" The third panel follows behind red and her cat as they walk along a spooky forest path with an owl in the branches above. Bottom left panel shares Bob Thibeault's bio: "Bob Thibeault is an author/illustrator, and Member of the New England Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators, The Writer’s Loft.org, Kids Comics Unite, and Sequential Artist’s Workshop. You can find him at: bobthibeault.com" My story, Little Red and the Big Scary Wolf, originated during a workshop where the challenge was to craft a complete tale using just ten sequential drawings or "panels." I chose to reimagine the classic Little Red Riding Hood story. Starting with black Sharpie sketches, I focused on capturing the essence of the story quickly, prioritizing concept over meticulous detail. This approach allowed me to concentrate on storytelling rather than perfection. [An image of 10 roughly sketched out pages depicting the major moments of the classic Little Red Riding Hood tale.] Once the concept was solidified, I discovered that the hardest part was already done. Expanding those ten panels into four comic pages became a natural progression. As someone who struggles with perfectionism, this process was transformative for me. Now, I embrace the freedom to make my thumbnails as messy and unpolished as I like, trusting that the fine details will come later. The rough pencil sketches are almost final, yet there’s always room to refine—whether it’s adjusting imagery or ensuring the narrative flows seamlessly. I aim to communicate as much through the art as through the text, creating an experience that fully resonates with the reader. Thank you once again for helping me bring this story to life alongside so many incredible creators in this anthology. If you haven’t backed us yet but want to support our journey, please check out our Kickstarter page below: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kidscomicsunite/lets-go-a-kids-comics-anthology-for-readers-of-all-ages Together, we’re making something truly special. Warm regards, Bob Thibeault [An image of more detailed penciled panels for 2 pages of Bob's comic with a final box around the last page that's blurred out with "No Spoilers!" written across the top.] Graphic sharing that Bob Thibeault is taking over our Mighty profile to discuss his process with his illustrated avatar and the ant Holly G. Kasey the fox says "125 Kickstarter backers so far!" The Kids Comics Studio Anthology logo with a QR code and URL to the Kickstarter are featured.

I made a "NO AI" starter pack for me as a "LET'S GO" anthologist and team member :)

kidscomicsunite.com/anthology
#starterpack @kidscomicsunite.bsky.social #kidscomicsletsgo
#KCSanthology #kidscomicsunite #kidscomics #kidlit #kidlitart #kidlitartist #noai #illustrator
An illustration of a cardboard blister pack action figure. Label says "Let's Go Anthologist Starter Pack: "Sarah"". There is a NO AI label at the top. The figure is a brunette woman with greying brown short hair wearing a grey bathrobe, slippers, and pj pants. Rainbows are coming out of her pockets. Labels say: Bonus: thick skin! Realistic tired eyes. Boring day job stuff. Pockets full of inspiration. Work from home house slippers. To the right are accessories: noise cancelling headphones, a phone with a calendar app, art supplies (digital art is real art) and Graphic novels for inspiration. warning text: NOT INCLUDED: Critique group. May be necessary for accurate play.
