Raytoons has created a board game that you can own. He writes:
In this turn-based strategy card game from Raytoons Comics, each player must form their own team of characters (from the Quackup comic book series) and must defeat other players through mini-game missions and battles! Game missions and conflicts …
I've talked about villains before and how they can be very nuanced in their motivations (without those motivations being redeeming) but today, thanks to Emma Clare's Friday post, I became inspired to talk about abject, absolute, abominable villainy! The twirling mustache type, the one that is so pure that nowdays …
One of the best types of villains are those that you love to hate. Despite how much you would love for them to shuffle off the mortal coil, they continue to captivate you with their malice and determination and you know that when they do leave the plot, whether deserved …
Lately I've been watching the original Twilight Zone series. I'm still early in the series. I watched it as a kid, but there are a LOT of episodes I've never seen. Of course, the Twilight Zone is in my bones just because it's so much a part of the culture. …

Years ago we did a community dodgeball comic jam. We couldn't come up with any good rules, nobody wanted to eliminate each other, but we all had a lot of fun with it. Is there any interest in doing this again? …
Have you ever read something and it gave you the "feels?" Something that was so intense that you couldn't help but feel the emotional truth of a fictional moment in time? In many ways that is the highest form of our art, and possibly any art; to communicate an experience …

When writing a historical fiction, it's very likely that you will need to include some actual historical personalities along with your historically-adept yet fictional cast.
Depicting a historical character is hard enough when there's a general consensus among historians and popular belief about who they were, …
You have a comic! You love it! You think it's amazing! But when faced with explaining it to other people outside of the webcomicshpere, you feel yourself deferring, prefer instead to shuffle your work under the rug, hoping that you don’t find yourself looking too weird. At least, that is …
I watched a great series of interview clips with a writer/producer/teacher named Dr. Ken Atchity on the Film Courage channel. He talks about screenwriting, and productive creativity in general. Great interviews from a guy who I find quite inspiring, and in a down-to-earth kind of way.

When I see artists just getting into the craft or people simply looking to improve their art ask for advice, the most omnipresent answer is "practice"; I don't like that answer. It assumes the person asking the question doesn't realize this is obvious, and hasn't already been practicing. They may …
