These are great! Heavily oriented towards this particular (very popular) style of vertical strip comics, but good nuts-and-bolts stuff. I've been doing comics on the interwebs for 20 years now, and I sorta feel like this whole wave has passed me by... here I am still drawing on bristol with a dip pen like some kinda chump...

I'm early retired and trying to learn New Shit. For the past six months, I've been taking art classes. I love it. Just yesterday, I bought a bristol board "comic strip" sketch book (from Canson). If/when I draw a webcomic, I'll actually do it on paper.

Also, love these videos!
