Comics Are Great! Live web show at 12:30 ET TODAY! →
comicsaregreat.tv
Today at 12:30 ET I’ll be talking with Kim holm and Jono Balliett on the Comics Are Great! web show, and you can participate during the live broadcast!
Topics:
1) Use cases for “compressed” storytelling and “decompressed” storytelling, and what do those terms even mean?
2) How public improv and non-trivial time restraints can force you to plow through ideas and shape them into serviceable stories.
And knowing my history with Kim, there will likely be plenty of “give Jerzy a hard time” on the show.
Want to chime in on these topics, or have a question for Kim or Jono? You can participate via live chat as the show is recorded by going to http://comicsaregreat.tv. We’ll be setting up a little before 12:30 pm ET.
Can anyone say Torpedo Red?

This was easily one of my most challenging classes. A group of high-energy boys. But with this final assignment I managed to get them to work as a group and create a unique and fun comics narrative. They were racing against the clock, but didn’t want the project to end.A lot of fun. Gonna get a chimichanga now.
The kids converge on the final panel

Rob and I spend a good hour talking about the perils of comparing our work/careers to those of others.
No video for this one, but we make up for it with the content in the conversation.
