A Fantastic Starting Place for Webcomic Developement

This book is fairly short, fairly simplified, but overall fairly fair! You're paying for what you get, which is guidance and advice on developing, writing, laying out, wording, and promoting a webcomic. It doesn't go in depth on artistic concepts, theory about sequential art, or anything like that. It's entirely about Webcomics, their creation, how they should be structured and laid out, all that sort of thing. It's very specific in its aim, and its aim is a good one! It's a good starting point, and offers a variety of reading suggestions too. If you're really going to be serious about getting into webcomics or comic art in general, I recommend you purchase Making Comics while you wait for your copy of How to Webcomic.
