Hello! My name is Star, and I'm an award-winning webcomic artist! I'm mostly known for my comic Castoff, but I've been making webcomics in some form for over a decade! And now, I want to teach YOU how to make your own webcomic! 

How to Webcomic is the culmination of everything I’ve learned from over 10 years making online comics, written out in a handy book format! It’s 200+ pages of information, with additional illustrations and diagrams to help readers navigate the visual language of comics. 

The 2023 edition of How to Webcomic is an updated and refreshed version of the original book, with ~70 pages of new content to help further your webcomic learning!

Book feels nice to hold, very informative on the topic, and the images that help describe the topic gives a better understanding of said topic.

This book has been extremely helpful in writing my own webcomic. It helps a lot with motivating myself to work on it, both because it has useful advice and because it's a physical manifestation of my goals. Highly recommend to anyone getting into visual storytelling!

Excellent Read

This book is joining my shelf of go to reference books. It is remarkably detailed and covers everything you need to start out on your webcomic journey. It even covers things I didn't consider like file size formats or future proofing for potential print releases. On top of it all, the book is presented in a format that is easy to follow and makes the attempt less daunting. Thanks to Starfishface, I am now eager to try out web comic creation.
