For our Patreon video I decided to dress as the WW2 Captain America (from the movie, Captain American the First Avenger). That and the very de-compressed nature ...
QUACKCAST 504 - Decompression

Banes at 12:00AM, Nov. 5, 2020
stretchin' out them stories!
I think I first heard the phrase “uncompressed storytelling” via the great John Byrne, comic artist and writer, and man of very strong opinions. He was criticizing some other writer or comic series (I don't remember which one) about hinting at stories that wouldn't ...
Horror - Immersion and the Slow Burn
Banes at 12:00AM, Oct. 15, 2020
I just started the Netflix series called “The Hanting of Bly Manor”.
It's hard to say how it's going to turn out in the end, since I'm just at the beginning. But overall so far, I'm enjoying the thing. There are many unanswered questions already, and ...
Upgrading the Machine

There are a lot of discussions pertaining to the idea that artificial intelligence and brain implants will be a huge part of the future. Cyborgs are a topic demonstrated in science fiction, such as when the Borg assimilated Captain Picard and seduced Data in Star Trek. It is argued that ...
Digging for references
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Oct. 2, 2020
For the longest time, I thought that I would be less of an artist for relying on references. This slowed my progress and made creating comics even longer to produce. Eventually, and thankfully, I got over myself and began using references all the time and by jove did that speed ...

Titles are surprisingly important for your comic! We don't often realise that when we first start them, but a title is one of the very first ...

I am not a fan of Nietzsche (shocker, I know) but this is a quote of his that ...
Approaching Horror
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Aug. 8, 2020
Though I am certainly no stranger to handling the horrific in my creations, horror as a genre is something I never dabbled in before.
Horror scares me the same way comedy does!
While I can crack jokes, I always feel I can never do it on demand, or consistently think ...

How Little and How Much?
Banes at 12:00AM, July 16, 2020
In the early weeks of the pandemic, I started updating my comic more. Shortly after that, I took two weeks off work and went even harder.
I was updating furiously, at least in comparison to what I'd been doing for a year or two previous. In fact, after about ...
