Comic Publishing Questions

*Donnie* · 05-31-2011, 12:04 AM

Hey everyone,

I know a lot of you here are into inking, writing your own characters or fan-fic, art in general, etc. and I was wondering what advise you would give (please leave the negative jabs at home...I know the chances are slim-to-none of ever seeing profit) a newbie to the comic publishing world.

I'm looking to see if I could get any advice on this situation: I have the story - when is it time to start drawing up the actual comic? What materials do I use (what sort of inks do you suggest, what kind of paper, how big, etc.) and how do I further then seek self-publishing of the finished project?

I apologize if this is confusing or hard to follow. I'm new to this facet of comic book fandom and any positive help I could get would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot everyone.
