109: Anything that is too stupid to be spoken is sung, Voltaire
January 15th, 2008 |Posted In: comics
In a past Webcomics Weekly podcast, one of the artists said about being successful that you need at least 200 comics, and each one, “has to be better than the last.” Fortunately, success is not my metric here: I`m just sharing. However, I hate this comic. In fact, I think the appropriate word is
despise
. The writing is horrible and nowhere near what I wanted, the strip has poor linework, a bunch of art smudged and had to be cleaned up with correction fluid and some computer work, the text is too thick and dirty, and the backgrounds are…well, nonexistant. The art is pretty poor, too.
I didn`t want to post this, I thought about skipping today and rewriting the strips to just bail out of this idea. However, I hope those of you out there who want to go out there and do something creative on your own can learn from this: You have off days, and sometimes no matter how hard you work at it you just can`t get things right. It`s okay to fail. Besides, by Thursday night, I won`t have to see this one again.
