I think John Byrne once said he did about two or three pages a day (I believe it was an eight hour workday).

What usually comes to mind when staring at a blank white wall on the outside of a building or on the inside of a nice restaurant? I am no stranger to mural art in all parts of the process: I have studied it, designed for it, and painted many around ...
Creators vs. Readers

How the Dominoes Fall - Tragedy
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 7, 2017
I have made comics’ storylines both ways- flying by the seat of my pants and meticulously scripting everything. So I feel I’m in a position to say that while both methods are valid and extremely fun, the latter one has one advantage over the former: it can make the ...
Doing sexy artwork
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Oct. 6, 2017
How do you feel when creating sexy artwork or writing sexy scenes for your comic?
