When you're free of editorial control, you owe it to yourself to obtain feedback from friends and readers. Some take those criticisms to heart and incorporate it into their work, and some ignore them.

The idea that comics stores, distributors and publishers simply 'give the customers what they want' is nonsense. What the customers wanted they didn't get - and they left.

It would take a lifetime to read all the webcomics published in one year.

It wasn't until I discovered comics that I actually began to approach drawing as a possible career.

The notion of getting under the hood and explaining how something works, that's fairly familiar territory to me.

Creator and reader are partners in the invisible creating something out of nothing, time and time again.

And what better way to reinvent the form than to toss virtually 99% of everything that's been done with it and start with a brand-new canvas, reinvent it from the ground up? Digital comics gave me the opportunity to do that, and producing things digitally gave me the opportunity to do that.
