Indie Comic Creators

A self-published artist learning out loud—wins, misses, and what changed.

In 1991, two of my brothers and I realized a dream we held on to since we were kids. It was brief, small, but definitely worthwhile for us.

We published our first comic book and it was distributed by the second largest comic distributor in the US at the time. We sold 2,000 copies!

For us, it was a success, but after the fanfare, interviews and signings settled, I became disappointed and ashamed of the lack of quality I put in.

This site is my journey to learning to be a better comic creator and comic artist. I am going to develop a new graphic novel from what I learn – come and join me for the ride – Let’s learn together.
