In just three days, 2019 will be in the past!
Often this is the time to make our obligatory “resolutions list” for the year to come, usually from looking back and seeing just what we didn't achieve in the year that is ending.

When first starting out in the webcomic field, it’s very easy to feel like you are screaming into the void. Getting eyes on your work can be an uphill battle but, thankfully, the webcomic community is a thriving one and through the power of ...
Time Passages
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 26, 2019As another year draws to a close, I'm once again thinking about how much time is flying by, more and more quickly the older I get.
Weeks whiz by like mad these days, and how quickly we've reached the end of the year reminds me that YEARS are ...

With so many options available to a finite audience, there is a high competition for grabbing the audience's attention ...

Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Dec. 13, 2019
In my research for a larger article about comics and typography, I stumbled upon an article that talked about how and why the font “Comic Sans” came into existence. Published via The Guardian, Vincent Connare, Comic Sans’ typographer commented,
”One program was called Microsoft Bob, which was designed to make ...
