This Is Everything I Know: A 24-Hour Comic About Comics.
Hey, all. This is a comic I started on 24 Hour Comic Day, but I only managed to complete 12 pages on that day. That makes it a technical failure, but I decided it was worth finishing regardless of that.
I sold copies at APE, but I didn’t anticipate the demand and ran out of them pretty quickly. So, I promised to re-post the mini on tumblr when i got home, and here it is.
Some further reading, if this kinda thing is up your alley.
- Kevin Kelly’s original essay on 1000 True Fans. He also links to associated articles dealing with the theory, even one that disagrees with it. Interesting reading.
- If you don’t know about Kickstarter and what its done for indie comics, get out from under that rock already. Lots of small press and micro publishers now pre-order ALL their projects on KS, myself included.
- Patreon is the new kid on the block; not quite up to scratch as of yet, but full of possibilities. Search “comics” to find a number of creators using it to draw a page rate from their fanbase.
I hope someone finds this helpful. I may put a print-rez PDF up for sale, if any interest is expressed.
Enjoy!

Did another quick portrait to warm up, since I’m doing a lot of painting again today.
I like how this turned out more than the one of Andy I posted last week… though I’m trying to figure out how to make them look a little less Uncanny Valley in general. ^_^;
Still learning.
I have a theory
That young women in the U.S. probably have learned more about rape culture on Tumblr – or other places online – than in school. True? I’d be interested to hear people’s stories….
Not a single word about rape culture was uttered, from kindergarten to my college graduation. My family was always very liberal, and my sister is an outspoken feminist and always was, but I didn’t start learning about rape culture and contemporary feminism until 2006 or so, when I started dating my boyfriend. He’s super liberal and a feminist, and introduced me to a few feminist blogs.
