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.

Good for beginners

If your a beginner looking for more basic info like what tablet/ program to use, this is very helpful. the more useful stuff for more advanced comic artists isn’t until more of the bottom of the book, I wouldn’t recommend this past beginners mostly but still good info to refresh on now and then

Super Helpful!

I found this really helpful! I've been trying to make a comic for a little bit now but I got stuck on the little details. Like is my art good enough, is the story decent, and if the characters are interesting enough. This helped put things in perspective for me and really helped!

This book cured my depression (and my drawing)

I was not having fun drawing and just couldn’t find that “spark” everybody else seemed to have. Then I stumbled across this cool YouTube channel. I thought to myself, what the heck, why not, and I started watching all of the drawing tutorials. Then I bought book. Not gonna lie folks, this book is chock full of information and relatable advice. Not only have I started drawing again, but I’m actually excited about it. It’s been helping me focus up and get all my daydreams on paper. Now I have plans. Big plans. This book is helping me make it happen!
