The Webcomic Beacon RANDOM ART BANNER!

Episode #127 – Define “Comics”

Adam Knave (Things Wrong With Me) joins Fes and Mark to discuss what it means to be a “comic”. There’s talk about Will Eisner and Scot McCloud’s definitions. Ben Carver calls in once again and argues his definition of comics, much fun had by all! We also talk about a bit of Scott Pilgrim and ComicCon.

Webcomic Beacon #123 – Do It Yourself?

Eric (Exiern) joins Fes to discuss ComicPress’ new build, ComicPress Premium. We also end up discussing the “It’s time to pay” model in webcomicking these days. Also a touch of writing vs art. This is an impromptu episode, so this is a bonus for everyone!

I will say that one should decide for themselves what form of WordPress publishing works best for them. Wait for the final details of the “ComicPress Premium” before deciding, since the site is incomplete. ComicPress 2.x will still be supported, as I’m told.
