I think John Byrne once said he did about two or three pages a day (I believe it was an eight hour workday).
Of course, the length of time a page will require depends a lot on what KIND of comic you're doing! A stick figure comic or sprite ...
Mundane Tasks
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 27, 2018
Have you noticed that it’s very rarely that in a webcomic (or any narrative work) there’s a category of tasks or activities that people do very often in real life, but extremely rarely in stories?
Watching TV, being on the computer (when NOT being a hacker or doing ...
Fandom
Banes at 12:00AM, Jan. 25, 2018
In a world of adapted comic book characters and stories, reborn old franchises, and endless brand-excavation of old TV shows, toys, and video games, our entertainment culture is something different than we've previously seen.
“I.P.'s” are dug up repurposed endlessly, in order to try and make a ...
Using social media to get Senpai to notice you

As we gear up for the holiday season, we take this time to reflect on the year and decide on the inevitable New Year’s resolutions that follow. Whilst most will add, “Take better care of the plants”, “Do more exercise,” and “Finally get my life together,” to the list ...
On The Still-Ongoing Net Neutrality Issue
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Dec. 16, 2017
A thread in the forum by JillyFoo on Net Neutrality has inspired this newspost.
I did some cursory research on it on the issue of how repealing it might affect artists- indie artists, like most of us are as webcomic creators and DD contributors.
According to Rolling Stone repealing it ...

Last week we talked about the benefits of mirroring webcomics on various platforms. Today, we’re continuing this theme.
The monsters in the market are now Tapas (formly Taptastic) and Webtoons, boasting a large audience that could maximise your reach. Smaller communities such as that on Smackjeeves, Comicfury and here ...
Mirror, Mirror Part 1

Mirror, Mirror,
On the wall,
One webcomic site?

Does anyone remember the early days of the Internet in the mid-nineties, where a majority of online interactions took place on and Internet Relay Chat (IRC)? I was only ten years old when I was first connected, and it did not take me long to learn that saying 10/f ...
Rain Has its Uses
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Nov. 18, 2017
These past few days in Greece we’ve had torrential rains that feel like the prelude to a second Flood- terrible casualties included. And that got me thinking that it rarely rains in webcomics.
Usually the weather is dry in sequential art- perhaps because it’s troublesome to draw characters ...
