Webcomic Platforms
Depending on the scope and needs of your webcomic project, a webcomic platform can be a great addition, or alternative, to an independent website. Many platforms have come and gone across the years, but today in 2026, the most well known options are Webtoon, Tapas, and Comic Fury. There can be a lot of confusion about what webcomic platforms can and can’t do for your project, so we’re going to dig into what they’re all about and what you can expect when you use them.
Workspace Organization
We spend a good chunk of time in one spot, drawing and writing our webcomics, so it makes a lot of sense to think about where that physically happens. Having a good space to make your webcomic is one of many things that can set you up for a healthy comic making habit, and if you haven’t thought about it before, we hope we can get you to start!
Community and Comics
A lot of webcomic creators think about maintaining a place for our readers to connect with each other, and enjoy our comics and other art. This might be the comment section already built into your host, a Patreon or YouTube comment area where folks can look at your side content and chat, or a real-time chat space like Discord or Twitch. They’re all a little different and can attract all kinds of attention, good and bad, so we’re going to dive into what that looks like.
Receiving & Processing Critique
Webcomics have a lot of moving pieces, and constructive critique can be an excellent way to troubleshoot those pieces or get around road blocks. We understand that it can be scary to ask for a critique of your work, but learning how to receive and process critique can help you, and your webcomic, to improve and grow. Today we're going to talk about how to be on the receiving end of critique.
The Truth About Art School
Have you come across a creator with a style that astounds you and wished you could bottle it up for yourself? Perhaps even....devour it? Join us today as our hosts discuss the dark secret behind art school...and the truth about how they really got their webcomic powers.
