I wanna release the templates on itch.io or ko-fi if people are interested? (Let me know!) If I add sheets for the American 11 x 17 ratio I'm gonna call it the "Hamburger Shonen" variant.

Last night's creative project, a notebinder for comic thumbnails? I'm particular enough that I want the exact ratios, but if I do thumbnails digitally I get too hi-fi and perfectionist. #HKcrafts #ComicDev

There's a reason us olds always say to have your own webcomic site and only mirror on hosting sites for extra reach. But I really feel for people whose comics found their audience, or their income, on Tapas. You don't get to choose where your work resonates. Fewer options=bad. Webtoon monopoly=bad.

This is SUCH a good article and really encapsulates many of my frustrations about doing anime con and pop culture comic cons lately. I've been talking about this a lot with friends (and fellow members of Cartoonists United) bc it's such a multifaceted issue. Very worth the read.
