Do your friends, family or significant others read your comics?

[BarBarKetrab]

Some of my friends do read my stuff, but the majority of them don't really care (or even know I'm doing it in the first place).

As for my family, not at the moment. I'm too shy. Maybe someday.....

[igneriss]

That depends on the series with my fantasy series, none of my RL friends/family reads it, and I don't mind. Webcomics just don't interest them and that's okay. I have a support from my internet friends : D

I also used to have a series based on my real life, and some of my RL friends would read it and even suggest ideas.

[FafasMcMelt]

Friends do read it, but no family members do. They've never actually been interested or supportive of my artistic persuits, so I don't even bother. Wether I'd like them to read it or not, at this point, I wouldn't.

[loonacyllc]

Honestly my friend is my biggest fan. They make me want to work even harder because theyre always excited for the next chapter and actually will talk to me about it. My sister also reads it! https://tapas.io/series/-Sanctuary-/info

[AbelDraws]

Many of them do. My sis and dad read them and i show them all my art, since they're very artsy themselves. My mum doesn't get it too much but she's supportive nonetheless.

I kinda shove my art in the face of my friends from time to time like "LOOK AT MY CHILDREN" and some of them, who either are into comics or are super supportive, actually read the comic from time to time which is super sweet

And my gf is like my number 1 fan so she definitely reads it x'D I show them all the scripts and pages and she helps me with future plot decisions™. She knows all my stories, I know hers, we just help each other out a lot and gush about how we love our characters so much hahahaha
Hearing her scream at the panels like "ALPHONSE YOU LOOK SO HANDSOME AAAAA" brings me all the joy and motivation I could ever ask for

[irresponsiblepics]

Sure!
My Sister and a couple of friends read mine..though dont quite get it.
My wife reads my comic (and is kind of my editor) she knows how everything ends and is the only reason I will continue to make videos also.
She wants to see what happens next.
Its nice! XD

[Kaydreamer]

My mum does! She's enjoying it so far, and she sometimes leaves embarrassing comments on Webtoon with my childhood pet names in them.

I love her.

Oh, and my partner does! I was actually surprised about that, I thought he just read chunks of episodes as I work on them, but no - apparently he reads them when I'm not at home.

[sorible]

I usually separate my comic hobbies with personal life. they'd probably be supportive, but i just like having my "comic creator life" all to myself without dealing with extra questions + pressure. kind of like Peter Parker.

my family doesn't speak english so that also makes things easier

[rajillustration]

I make it publicly available on my twitter and I tell people that I know IRL but like the only time my friends told me they read is when one was like "Hey are you OK???? Your art looks kinda scary right now." lololol

So I think they do (enough to like my tweets) but like are never going to comment because that would require getting a Tapas/webtoon account.

[whenyouweresleeping]

No
That's why I'm hoping to start a new family here!

Please subscribe to my comic and join my new family

When You Were Sleeping | Tapas

[Jenny-Toons]

Yeah, they read them. My mom's even a patron.

And we really like doing art anyhow: dad makes music, uncle does photography, mom used to sing, etc. Not a big surprise that I like making comics.

They ARE pleasantly surprised that I can do so much with a computer and tablet (they're still used to seeing comics done traditionally, but they're getting there!)

[TL_Nonoke]

My mum was my first reader! And my Dad snuck peaks which embarrassed the heck out of me...LOL. I did post to FB so family and friends know, but I'm only aware of one person who's reading it LOL.

[jensrichard77]

My brother @Larslaustsen do
I have a cousins that reads and does editing.
I have a cousin that is an artist and reads.
I have another cousin’s daughter that is an artist and helping me out from time to time.
My two kids are reading. One is an artist and the other is writing stories.
My wife is an editor.
I have several real-life day-job co-workers following me and some of my characters are built on them.

So... I guess

[DiegoPalacios]

My family and friends are extremely supportive, my brothers and cousins were the first fans of Rocky the Rock and my nephews were the first fans of Superduperdoopyclub. Which project/s they follow out of the three comics i am making varies a lot depending of their personal taste.

[vholdfield]

My family doesn't read my novels, mostly because they don't speak English (we're French) but I also don't really speak about it to them. Except for one of my sisters. With her, I tell her about my novels and she's really supporting so it's cool

[tomkaplan06]

Hell no I don't want to be outed XD

[dominioncomix]

I read it to my mom from time to time (she doesn’t speak english) otherwise, no

[iHateFridays]

I did show it to my mum's friend's son who also makes digital art XD

[RoseRedRowan]

My friends and my colleagues do but my parents don’t (they’re really supportive, but they just aren’t into comics and sequential art).

[NickRowler]

I don't show it to my family because me family are the most judgemental people. I think my parents are eager to read my stuff but I think they are expecting it to be more like the comic Mutts. So inoffensive and super wholesome.

My siblings don't really care. My little brother also draws comics yet I never read them. Maybe if he wasn't so shy I could do a collab with him IDK.

I do tell people I meet I write a comic and I do sometimes send links. Tho I don't think they read them at all.
