Overworking in webcomics
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Feb. 4, 2023
With the ever expanding influence of Webtoons, more and more people are flocking to webcomic sites to read comics. I say read, but really it is “consume”. In this day and age where content is being inhaled at an unprecedented rate, creators are being pushed further to create more. Longer ...
Enjoying the work
