| 5. How would you go about telling people who knew to nothing about webcomics, why they rock/suck? | They're cool because they give alla rtists of any ability the opportunity to reach an audience & get feedback. | phone, cards, email... | deviantart/cellphone ads | I think webcomics are good because they're very accessible and you don't need to hunt them down in stores. They're also frequently updated with new material. Sometimes the quality is poor - but there are also a lot of really good ones. |
-More variety & niche subjects | GO TO SERIALIZER | anonymous email | I'm new to webcomics. Aside from the occasional Penny Arcade & Homestar Runner (ok, not quite a webcomic) I don't really read them. However, I think they are brilliant– Free comics! Some like Sunday funnies, some, a continuing saga. | I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO THEM. | I DONT SMOKE CRACK | webcomics are better than newspaper comics because they can be made for anyone without insulting somebodys grandmother [sic] | Easy access, same quality experience as print comics | free delivery at home/email | ||||||
