As usual, I’ve an urgent need to put my ignorance on display. There was a discussion thread on TWCL that asked what they biggest challenges are for those comic artists who are looking to go pro or semi pro. One major point is the audience pool. Some believe that the online comic audience is limited [...]
Enker's Tale

What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos Woodruff (This is a reformatted repost of an older review.)

What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos This review is on Ordinary Things by Ozge Samanci. It has the tag line “an online journal of my observations in the comics form.” This is not your standard comic, nor is it even a diary comic. Even the about page is not run of the [...]

Every week I wonder if I’ll only have two or three things worth taking note of. Every week I am surprised. Ping Teo of Webcomic Finds looks at time and webcomics. Making webcomics is a very unsure endeavor and it is very easy to just quit. I am inspired by her choice of attitude about [...]

This week I have a number of disjointed thoughts about a variety of things I saw… I mention this first because any artist who is looking to have their own book printed needs to read it. I apologize for those who’ve seen this already Tony Piro has a really great review of POD (Print on [...]

October 15th, 2008 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos Woodruff (This is a repost.) The Sixth Dimension by Sarah Mendiola. What is the Sixth Dimension about?

Cow and Buffalo
October 12th, 2008 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos (this is a repost.) This review is on Cow and Buffalo by Mike Maihack. First thing’s first.

Here we go with some things I found provoking: I asked and it was provided! Casey & Scotty animated. At long last. That’s great stuff for just taking an hour to put it together.

Sometimes I have thoughts to share but this time I have questions. How is a webcomic going to be successful? How will it provide a living to the artist and their family? Bengo of The Floating Lightbulb had the idea to seize upon the business model provided in the Half Pixel book “How To Make [...]
