Would you still be making your comic if you had no way to share it with others?

I probably won't be. I've been so burned out from comic-making numerous times and I don't think it would be worth the time if no one reads it. I'd rather just make a series of drawings of my characters interacting.

Yes and I was back in jr. high before computers and the internet were as big as they are now. Illustrating my story's in comic format is the best way for me to manifest my thoughts and ideas properly.

Probably not. It's like baking a whole cake but having no friends to eat it with. Sure you get a whole cake to yourself, but it just kinda makes you sad and unfulfilled.

I think for me, no. Instead I would have written it as novel form. Making webcomics is new to me and I'm still learning on how to tell a story visually instead of in full written form.

I think I probably would continue to write comics (although admittedly, a lot less often than I currently do). At the very least, cartooning is a hobby for me that I really enjoy, and it's a great way to keep from getting bored when I've got a couple hours of wide open free time.

I think i would, i actually did back in 8th-9th grade i had a comic and i drew it for over a year and it was 80+ chapters at the start my school friends read but later they stopped, i continued doing it for myself until i got bored.
I think i would still draw comics maybe not as frequently, i cant stop thinking about stories and i feel like the only way to get them out of my head is through drawing them.

Yes, but I wouldn't care about the quality. XD

Yes. I've been drawing my comic for years for myself and only started sharing it online after a friend made a life-changing choice that encouraged me to share it with others. It's like I have this internal drive and I have to draw the antics of my characters running around inside my head. I'm very introverted, so drawing my comic for myself is motivation enough to keep going.

If I had no way to share them with anyone, I don't think I would. If you can't even show it to people you know, it kinda defeats the purpose of making a comic. Though, I would probably have a lot of scripts -3- I'd write the comics in either script or standard novel format, and just keep them to myself like I did in the beginning.

I think at most i'd just do doodles for the scripts and characters for my own enjoyment.

I been drawing my comic Host for over a year now and only recently started posting it. To be honest my comics never get many readers so I actually enjoy making the comic more for myself then for others but after I start posting I usually get discouraged from the lack of response.
