Rebuilding this thread bc the old one was all broken.
Writing yesterday about how I started making comics for the first time 5 years ago at age 40 put me in a good mood. So here's all the comics I've made, free to read. Each post will be a RT dedicated to that comic's thread.

A Short Hike is great for this. You walk around and find things that will help you hike further up the mountain where you can finally get cell reception. It's chill, enjoyable, with a lot to explore for a game that only takes a couple hours to finish. Also, you're a bird.

RAD THREAD: A 6th grade girl in my How To Make Comics class blew my socks off yesterday with her comic. The exercise was to make a one-page comic off this loose script:
"A little girl flies her ship past Saturn. Later she approaches the Earth."
Let's look at why she's amazing

The refusal of American manga/anime fans to call it Delicious In Dungeon after that being its official US title for seven years reminds me of when I reimagined r/books as if overrun by r/manga users.

Got to admire Tsuruta's decision that "Yes, I am going to draw this knitted, cabled sweater probably for the rest of my life."

But some details: 1) notice how she changes panel borders based on where the girl is. On earth = double border; in imagination/dream = single border. And then check out the final panel where the double border breaks halfway to indicate the transition into dream!

I so so so deeply hope she keep making comics because if she does, she's going to blow us away. I'm sure of it.

Also, small details: ponytail for the entirety, takes it out for bed. A throwaway detail that grounds this comic.
Also, as she drifts off: Saturn out her window (showing dream is already bleeding in) and in the in-panel match cut, we get earth as her dream self sleeps on Saturn.

Speaking of match cuts, she has two on this page, both indicating transition to and from dream/imagination.
That the second pair is actually in a single panel is just colossal.

In any case though, let's look at where she takes this: little girl on Earth imagines she's flying around Saturn; she finishes her imagination play and goes thru her normal routine; gets into bed and returns to her dream of space. Totally awesome reframing of the received script.

Her: Where does that name come from?
Me: In part she's a character from The Odyssey.
Her: Adventures In Odyssey?
Me: I what?

Also, look at this Amazon box. She's observant enough in regular life to remember the arrow smile, even if she hasn't yet connected it to the A and Z in AmaZon (Amazon sells everything from a-to-z), which is fine because most people wouldn't have that detail at the ready either.

Also, here's a 3rd grader's adaptation of the same script. Look at that space boat!

Her comic prioritizes vertical reading first, then left-to-right. Like a an OEL 4-koma, but it's only 2 instead.

I can't tell if it's manga/anime fans' desperation to pretend their thing is still niche or if it's just scrub-level gatekeeping.

We'd talked about panels and borders and how they can tell story a few weeks ago. And Scott McCloud's panel transitions too. She's pretty clearly added these ideas to her toolset (if she didn't have them already) and has no problem employing them as needed.

It's been 9.5 years since I started drawing comics at age 40. Here's a snapshot of pretty much all 233 finished pages.
235 pages over the course of a decade feels both slight and weighty. In a sense, I think "That's all?" In another, I remember that this was all after work.

We're watching Our Beloved Summer and it features a reclusive artist known for his comfy drawings of buildings. I thought "Man, that sounds nice, I'd like to see more." Coincidentally (I hope?) IG delivered me a follow recommendation the same day:

(The exercise was part of a discussion about how comics are often collaborative and what that means for personal creativity. The next exercise was to illustrated a much tighter script written by someone else that defined panel-by-panel what would go on the page.)

I'm not even a big fan of Narnia but the suit who decided to re-number the books in chronological order rather than in pub order is likely comfortably seated in Dante's ninth circle with all the other of the treacherous for how diabolically he screwed future readers of the series

This tweet is absolutely going to backfire and suddenly everyone will start talking about Homer's Odýsseia, Tolstoy's Voyna i mir, Dostoevsky's Prestupleniye i nakazaniye, Tove Jansson's Mumintrollen, and most insidious of all Le Petit Prince.
It'll be hilarious.

CRT is for Christians in 2021 what D&D was for Christians in 1986.
And Pokemon was for Christians in 1999.
And Harry Potter was for Christians in 2003.
Christians love a good panic. It keeps their blood flowing. It's like coffee but for the soul.

I've complained a bit about comics journalism and the dilettante shamble that is the paid-critic end-of-year list. But this is the fallout.
Joshua Cotter's Nod Away vol 2 was the best comic I read from 2021. Easily in my Top 5 American comics in the last decade.
This is insane.

It's fine as a principle but it's definitely not common to hear people calling Crime And Punishment "Prestupleniye i nakazaniye" or Wind-Up Bird Chronicle "Nejimakidori Kuronikuru."
So, principled maybe, a little different yes.

> "YouTubers want you to pay them to cover your games"
Probably bc most viewers don't realize that these channels are being paid to be enthusiastic about the games they're covering. They don't realize the YouTubers are just shills.
That's why it feels different from paid ads.
