Comment by Polly Piper on May 26, 2013 at 12:31am: My zine is BrainPlague which includes mostly comics I've hand-drawn, scanned and printed. (The title of this one is "Drive By" but it was too big for the screen and got cut off.) Drive By is taken from BP #3, which you can find on my blog www.brainplague.net.

Comment by Room 15 Press on May 20, 2013 at 7:53pm: Amanda: He's right! Don't wait until you have an idea to draw. Draw because you're looking for an idea. I've found that my greatest ideas have come from supposedly mindless doodling when I wasn't thinking and I was just doodling. You'll surprise yourself! If your heart is beating then you've got tons of emotions stirring inside of you that are waiting to come out in the form of words and through the ink that will flow from your pen. -Chris

Comment by APFuchs on March 20, 2013 at 2:32am: Amanda: Just draw and stop thinking about it or overthinking it. Relax and just simply do it. Don't have an idea? Draw anyway. Something'll come. It's the only way. Too many artists talk the talk but never walk the walk, you know? So many are in the "planning" stages of something but never actually do it and then wonder why they're "starving artists." (I've met so many writers and artists over the years that were so hung up "aspiring" and never actual accomplished anything.)

Comics won't draw themselves. That's where you come in. Just do the work. It really is that simple. :)

Comment by APFuchs on March 20, 2013 at 1:42am: My perzine/minicomic is Canister X. Three issues out and published, a fourth in the works. Up for trades (or sales). Here's a review of them in Xerography Debt. Official link: http://canisterx.com/canister-x-comix (send me a note and we can make arrangements for a sale or a swap).

I also do a superhero comic called Axiom-man (webcomic version here), but it's also in print as well. I also write a novel series of the same name.
