My #comic has a name in my head but SEO, URLs, and duplicate names intimidate me so much I keep second guessing myself. How do people decide on names??

being an artist is great I love telling myself "this is just a ref sheet it doesn't need to be fancy" and then spending hours trying to decipher how to make its background simple but still visually appealing only to realize the "fancy" approach would be faster at this point

Currently my goal is for my friends to read it. Once that is accomplished I can dream bigger ;)
Comic creators, what is success for you?
For me, it's having built an audience that empowers me to tell a long-form story. By January we'll have completed the equivalent of 35 DM issues of the White Ash Saga. Not many indie series reach those #'s. And we're just getting started.
We're not alone...

I can’t believe some people can do thumbnails, sketches, inking, then colors for their #comics. I do thumbnails, sketch, ink, sketch, ink, color, ink, sketch, earase, sketch, ink, color….

SO much of the cultural and artistic nostalgia that society chases was just art made when people got paid to do it. Lavish movie posters made by human artists, video games made by people without sixteen different investment companies breathing down their neck, movies made by studios taking a chance.

I am a cartoonist who plays DnD and is in development for a speculative sci-fi comic. These are my main passions!
I’d love to get in touch with other artists!

@keezyyoung.bsky.social Happy Birthday ;)
I read my copy right after it came out and had to sit with it for a while. Very good book, I felt uncomfortably seen at some points.
