Comic Extras for your readers?

Hmm some people make small comics for holidays (like a Halloween or Christmas special), or you could just make mini gag comics XD

This suplementary info is fascinating as long as it doesn't break the pacing of a chapter. Doing it between chapters is a great idea to not mess with the pacing and give readers a sense of wonder while working on the next chapter. I've seen it done wonderfully by a couple of comics.

I like reading filler material, and I insert some into Bestia's Wrath, usually between the chapters to pad things out. So far I've been inserting little character profiles that provide an overview of a character that people have already seen, give a small bio, some facts, and also a design timeline …

Whats your process for story ideas/story creation?

This can go for both comic artists and novelists. Do you start with an outline and just write out random ideas or dialouge? Do you make a script? For comic artists, do you sketch out the characters first and then start writing? For me, I start writing up a script and then doing character sk…

For Inksgiving I did several cute short minicomics and while you could read the main comic without them, they do add backstory and lore that my enhance the story for readers interested in that sort of thing or who like figuring out plot with clues. I think the best world building filler material is …

I very much like this idea; I plan to do that on Menmar when I finish the first season according to the script I wrote. There's plenty of material in terms of worldbuilding and I love to see those extras when I read another series xD

Mar 16, '21

I think as long as it's brief and fun, it can work! I have lore pages as Inksgiving goals (though I might move them to be chapter break content), and I always try to keep it to 3 pages max and still make sense in-universe to keep a reader immersed. It's like someone taking field notes about various …

It is true that filler material kinda takes away some immersion but I can't stop thinking about AoT anime (now that the last season is being aired), they give short bits of information regarding the worldbuilding or details connected to some recent event. I love these ones and I always stop the clip…

I love this kind of supplementary info; it can really flesh out the world and characters, and also avoids that awkward problem in Fantasy or Sci-Fi stories and similar where to tell the audience something, a character would otherwise need to tell another character something everyone in that world wo…

They do care (at least from what I have seen). In fact some of the readers often need a refresher or break between chapters. I am speaking as a novelist who have longer-than-recommended word count each chapter, comic might be different. I do "Intermission chapters" for every ten chapter. I perso…

Share a page of your comic out of context

Let me see a page of your comic out of context and link your comic as well. Here is one from mine [image]

My comic started as a bad fanfiction. What about yours? Share your experience, comics and novels

When things get big, I’m sure I want to talk about how I began my comic and all the creative madness behind it. Until then, I can talk about it in pieces on forums, lol. And now I am talking about the total original beginnings of my story. I think we all know it, the times when your idea didn’t even…

Answer 3 questions and share your comic

I made a thread like this before, but now I'm doing again but with different questions What made you want to make your comic? What's your favorite book? What's your next subscriber milestone? Here are my answers: I looked at Youtubers like TheOdd1Sout and Ice Cream Sandwich, and they both…

Do you have a magic system in your story?

I love thinking about magic & power systems that can be used in stories, and when I stop procrastinating I'm going to make a comic about some of my ideas. But that made me thinking, do you have any magic system in your story and what was your inspiration for it? Do you have any tips for organizing…

How often do you think of giving up?

Its something i struggle with so often. I think things arent happening as fast as i want, or no one really cares. I thought i didnt have to be extroverted or good at marketing and just make something good and it'd find a place...but thats just not true with art. sigh or maybe come face to face with…

What D&D Class Would Your Characters Play? (Link Your Comic/Novel)

To be clear, this is what class would they play if they actually sat down to play D&D, not what class they would be if they were translated into a D&D-style setting (though there could be overlap depending on the character). Link your series too! For my characters: Enkal: Paladin - he’s a goody tw…

What was your first comic idea?

As a kid I used to draw random comics just for fun, but I never took it that seriously. That was until I found Mark Crilley's YouTube channel. I watched tons of his video tutorials on how to draw manga and bought his books. I remember watching them in bed before going to sleep, in the mornings, in t…

What is the best piece of advice you have been given regarding your comic/book?

For me, it was the not bite off more than I could chew. Initially, I had this grandiose idea for a comic that easily would have spanned a couple of hundred pages but I was still pretty inexperienced when it came to writing one so it's better to focus on smaller projects to build some skill.

Do you write your story from firsthand experiences or is it because you want to experience it?

What the title says. It's not necessarily the whole story, just the tidbits of scenes from your comic or your novel. For example, your OC is frustrated at work, then one of their co-worker noticed it and decided to treat them for lunch, or dinner, or something like that. Or they are partying with …

Why do you think W.I.Ps/Sketches get more engagement than finished art?

Every time I scroll through twitter and Instagram or any social media to look at art I always see that alot of creator's W.I.P's or messy sketches get way more likes than their finished artwork but why is that? Even some art memes joke about this happening all the time but I always wondered why t…

What way do you go?

@VibrantFox @Reveal @NiWo21k @therosesword @SallyEmilly Thank you guys for that! I found it constraining and wanted to give up due to the fact I felt like I am never getting anything down and I'm only making this worse. I wanted to keep up the updates but there are times where (currently, not befor…

What way do you go?

Yep that's what I'm doing, I post 3 pages of 1 chapter per week since it's easier to do.

Promote your Universe!

That sounds really cool. Can you link to it? Also my universe doesn't really have big baddies either just people who seem like big baddies. XD

Promote your Universe!

Hey, everyone! Since we just released a new story that takes place in the same universe as our other works, I thought it would be a great opportunity for everyone to share their worlds in this thread! Don't hesitate to talk about your ideas, characters, places, and anything else you think it's w…

What way do you go?

For a while, I have been in and out when it came to my comic. I received an assistant and we have been doing pretty well. However, ever since covid happened, a lot of personal reasons slowly hindered me from my usual biweekly updates. Now times passed, I've gone through monthly, weekly, and parts. M…
