Posted on January 18, 2019January 31, 2023 by H-P Lehkonen

Making Money from Webcomics – An Illustrated Guide is a product of the joint effort of an international group of webcomics artists, Finnish comics makers and the funding from Kone Foundation. I started the project two years ago and in August 2018 a bunch of webcomics artists traveled to Finland for a joint two-week artist residency….

Anatomy of a Comic Script

Posted on January 17, 2019January 31, 2023 by Fred Van Lente

Stephanie asked me to expand a bit on the article on my web site, fredvanlente.com, which talks about how (I find) to best format a comics script. While there’s no standard method of comics script format, this is what I, a 20-year veteran of the industry (give or take), find works best. I’ve been pleased…

Comic Books 101: Where to Start

Posted on January 16, 2019January 31, 2023 by Stephanie Cooke

As mentioned in my introduction post, How To Get Into Comics is an ongoing column that’s dedicated to helping new readers come to the medium. There’s a lot of stuff to go through so I’ll do my best to be thorough and as comprehensive as possible (without treading into overwhelming territory). Before I dive in, just know that…

Letter of Agreement for Freelance Editors

Posted on January 15, 2019January 31, 2023 by Stephanie Cooke

We’ve had many requests to expand our content for comic book editors (freelance and otherwise). Editing in comics can be pretty extensive, especially for those who oversee the artwork and the scheduling as well (we’ll touch on this in another post later). As an editor in comics, it’s equally important to have a contract established…

Designing a Comic Cover (Part 2 of 2)

Posted on January 11, 2019January 31, 2023 by Plaid Klaus

The first part of this two part series focused on my philosophy in regards to comic covers and their importance to a comic. To reiterate I made three main points: A cover should set the tone and mood for a series and reflect the story being told. A cover should act as a ‘hook’ that…

Finding an Agent to Represent You

Posted on January 10, 2019January 31, 2023 by Stephanie Cooke

One thing that we get asked about a lot here on Creator Resource is how to get an agent to represent you. It can be tricky and a little bit daunting at times to find someone who will be a good fit for you and your projects. It’s also a very different process from pitching…

Posted on January 8, 2019January 31, 2023 by Steven Andrews

TO Comix is a small press publisher based in Toronto, Canada. We’ve published numerous books through Kickstarter (including most recently, the Shout Out anthology) and have a thing or two we can share about promoting our books. For our Kickstarter for Toronto Comics: Yonge At Heart, here’s what we did for our marketing: Pre-marketing: Social Media…

Designing a Comic Cover (Part 1 of 2)

Posted on January 4, 2019January 31, 2023 by Plaid Klaus

There is the old saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” While this may be true for a novel, in regards to a comic book cover this couldn’t be further from the truth. Every writer will tell you that the first paragraph should set the tone for the coming novel. The importance of this…

Ideas and You (AKA, Know What You’re Writing About II)

Posted on January 3, 2019January 2, 2019 by Philip Uebbing

Happy New Year, everyone, and welcome to another Tales from Outside Comics! The series of posts from someone just like you, still huddled in the corner, reeling from the year that was 2018. What’s old is new again, so what better way to kick off the new year than retreading an idea from the last…
