In this Q&A livestream I talk about...
• Character design tips
• Putting some of the shame back into "shameless self-promotion."
• Is your newsletter too long
• Newsletter headlines are crucial
• Reading dialogue out loud for word balloons (and why I don't do it)

Bluesky pals! I have a sci-fi graphic novel called DRIVE, & it's my favorite thing I've ever done! If you need a long, escapist read at the moment the entire thing is free to read, here: drivecomic.com
(THIS PAGE: Morons' Bane)
PANEL 1: The CAPTAIN, as a hologram, speaks to Los Tres Primos - a SHORT PRIMO and a THIN PRIMO. CAPTAIN: Why don’t you shuttle over and we’ll make a plan SHORT PRIMO: Can’t slow down for shuttles. The Nyx are already on the move. TALL PRIMO: Otherwise, we’d invite you aboard THE MORONS’ BANE. PANEL 2: Close up on the CAPTAIN’s hologram, with the STRONG PRIMO responding. CAPTAIN: When did the Nyx fleet leave Du—WAIT. Did you say MORONS’ BANE? STRONG PRIMO: That’s our new ship! PANEL 3: The STRONG PRIMO and SHORT PRIMO smile as they explain. STRONG PRIMO: Tenth one since we went on the run. SHORT PRIMO: We started out with LADY MONTGOMERY’S SCHOOL FOR WAYWARD PUNCHIN’. It was stolen scout ship, like yours. PANEL 4: All three Primos remember the names of their ships, smiling. STRONG PRIMO: Then we got THIS WON’T END WELL. SHORT PRIMO: Followed by DEFINITELY NOT STOLEN. TALL PRIMO: Then OOPS, ALL LASERS. PANEL 5: From outside their new ship zooming through space, stars streaking behind them, they continue naming their past ships. PRIMO: Then RAPID UNSCHEDULED DISASSEMBLY. CONFLICT RESOLUTION FOR FUN & PROFIT. THAT’LL BUFF RIGHT OUT. THE M-XWAVES ARE PLAN B. And most recently…NO RAGRETS. PANEL 6: From behind the CAPTAIN’s hologram, over her shoulder, the SHORT PRIMO holds up both thumbs in excitement. CAPTAIN: That’s…quite the list. SHORT PRIMO: We don’t have much in life, Captain. But what we DO have… we give stupid names. —— Want to read the full story? Join us at Patreon.com/drive for the *FULL* Tales of the Drive archives, art giveaways, fun community, and more!

Starting a webcomic in 2026 isn’t about chasing algorithms — it’s about building something sustainable, creative, and yours. We'll break down what new cartoonists actually need to focus on. comiclabpodcast.com

The wildly handsome Brad Guigar (left) stands next to Dave Kellett, who is really doing his best. Thanks to the wonders of Photoshop, it looks as if the ComicLab logo is being launched from Dave's hand. It's not. That's just copy-paste. Again... raw sexuality simply oozes from Guigar. You'd think the guy would be so busy fending off amorous advances that he wouldn't have time to write alt text for Blusky posts.

Captain Heroic saved dozens of lives. The internet saved its attention for soup. 🥣

[Captain Heroic is looking at Yazmine Velour’s phone, which is belching a steady stream of hearts.] Captain Heroic: I don’t understand. So a bunch of people put “hearts” on the video. What’s the big deal? Yazmine Velour: The #HotSoupHotSupe hashtag is trending on three platforms! Yazmine Velour: Comments sections across the Web are a maelstrom of theories, opinions and speculation! Yazmine Velour: FeedCrush.com just posted “Why we need Hailey + Cap right now!” Yazmine Velour: Over a hundred reaction videos and remixes have been posted in the last twenty minutes! Captain Heroic: I single-handedly prevented a bridge collapse not three days ago — saving dozens of lives! How many hearts did THAT video get?! Yazmine Velour: ONE of them trended for about a day-and-a half… (Inset image: Captain Heroic supports a collapsing bridge as a passing motorist moons him.)

Yesterday, I shared thoughts on rethinking a concept from the early days of webcomics — the collective. Today, I have some advice on what you should consider if you’re thinking of forming one of your own.

Miss Match has a plan.
A very sensible plan.
A plan that works for everyone.

…except maybe Captain Heroic. 😍

New Evil Inc page is up — politics, optics, and one very inconvenient pair of heart-eyes.

Read from the beginning 👉 go.evil-inc.net/startCh17fro...
Lightning Lady: So… you’re OK with this? — if Cap and the waitress get physical? Miss Match: He hasn’t indicated that he wants to… yet. Miss Match: Besides… This could work in our favor. In the eyes of Cap’s boss, this puts to rest any lingering fears of Cap colluding with me. Miss Match: In the eyes of Cassie, as long as I continue teaching — and stay out of the field — I can avoid conflicts of interest on my end. Miss Match: In the eyes of the public, Cap and I are ancient history. Lightning Lady: Yeah… but what’s in Captain Heroic’s eyes? [The next scene shows Cap with hearts in his eyes.]
