Hello there my fellow Quackateers!
The new year is here! And it’s around this time that resolutions and goals are set in stone for the year. However, have you ever found yourself setting ambitious goals for your webcomic, only to feel overwhelmed and demotivated when life inevitably gets in ...
The magic of webcomic habits
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Jan. 6, 2024A Different Kind of Story Structure
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 28, 2023
I have a lot of interest in story structure. Understanding what it is, how it works, and using it to write better stories. Stories that will keep people more interested, and deliver a satisfying experience…that's what we try to do when we're making comics and writing stories ...

Three Books
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 21, 2023
I've only read three books in my life.
Okay, that's not true - over the years I've read nearly a dozen.
But the first art-instruction book I used (at least, the earliest one I can remember) was this book

It was ...

We're up to number 666 Quackcasts so our topic this time is evil! Evil is a complicated subject, we all think we know what it is but we really don't, there are just so many ...
Hypothetical society, a Starship Trooper rant
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Dec. 17, 2023

Last week I had the fortune of stumbling across Netflix's latest animated series, Blue Eye Samurai. I didn't expect much, but I was so bowled over by the sheer excellence of this show that I ended up binging the entire first season overnight. Like all shows, it's ...
A Wayback Playback
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 7, 2023
I have a handful of hobbies that mean a lot to me - from an early age, reading, and music (drums at first), and drawing were all important pastimes.
The other day I found an old workbook dated from when I was eight years old. It was an A to Z ...
