if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.
allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace

IF YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE A COMIC...
Please talk about it on this thread! I would love to hear what stage you are at, what is working well, and what has proven more difficult than you thought.
Share a bit of art, if you can!
Sing your own praises, if you like!

I suspect I'll get crap for this, but I do think it's something we all need to be reminded of, especially fans and creators of things.

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.
You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Y’know….. I completely misread today’s prompt as “favourite trope” instead of “cliché”. And I’m not making a new drawing 🤣
My favourite character trope is the super cutesy character that turns out to have terrifying power

- We need cheaper printed black and white comics for the love of god
- Comics for adults could do crazy numbers if they actually had support, pubs are leaving money on the table
- Prose authors shouldn't be hired to write comics based on prose chops alone
- Cartoonists should be paid 700x more
