The platform empowers these creators by providing tools to reach a massive audience and transition personal passion projects into premium content. With over 65,000 subscribers and a number of ongoing series running concurrently, Lord Vincent has masterfully crafted a thriving creative enterprise.</p> <hr /> <figure id="attachment_143623" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143623" style="width: 150px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Lord-Vincent.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-143623 size-thumbnail" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Lord-Vincent-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143623" class="wp-caption-text">Lord Vincent</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>ComicAttack: As an introduction to our readers, what can you tell us about your background and how you began creating content for the Tapas Media platform?</strong></p> <p><strong>Lord Vincent:</strong> <em>I started out as a regular community creator on the site, posting my independent comics. I had been posting online on many sites for many years, slowly building up a fanbase across platforms, before I was approached by the Tapas team and asked if I was interested in creating Premium content. Since I really liked the site and the concept, and since my previous interactions with their staff had been positive, I said yes.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: When did you first get into writing and what influences have you drawn on in developing your narratives?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>I got into writing already as a child, but didn’t start doing it seriously until my late teens. I always enjoyed horror stories and they were what got me writing initially. I especially enjoy psychological horror.</em></p> <p><em>In recent years I have started creating more romance and adult content, however. I found that the market is lacking in romance made by and for people like myself (LGBT people), so I wanted to contribute to changing that.</em></p> <p><em>I think the biggest inspirations for my writing style have been various RPG maker horror games and my studies in psychology. Character development is something I really enjoy working with, but I would say that what inspires my style in that regard isn’t taken from any other fictional works. I take inspiration directly from real life observations.<br /> </em></p> <p><em>A lot of the supernatural elements in my writing are like that, too. I have experienced many paranormal things in my life, and I honestly don’t find them all that scary. They are kind of just another aspect of some people’s daily routine, and so that is the approach I take to it in a lot of my stories.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143619" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143619" style="width: 300px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Bloodroot_2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143619" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Bloodroot_2-300x229.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="229" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Bloodroot_2-300x229.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Bloodroot_2.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143619" class="wp-caption-text">Bloodroot web-series</figcaption></figure> <p><em>I think one recurring theme you will see in many of my works is that the unknown and the paranormal is nothing to fear. The real horror lies in what regular, living people will do to one another.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: What drove the decision to take on the writing and the artwork for your Tapas content? Did you ever consider collaborating with another creator?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>I have always worked alone, since up until a year or so ago I have found it difficult to communicate and compromise. I have autism, so my social skills are a few years behind my peers. In the last year however I have become rather positive towards the idea of collaborating with other creators! I just have yet to actually do any collaborations.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: You are currently tracking almost 35 million views across 9 narrative properties, with Bloodroot alone racking up over 27 million. That is a substantial achievement for any creator. What is it about your stories that draw people in and keeps them coming back?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>Like I mentioned previously, I think the market is lacking in romance written by and for LGBT people. Especially the mainstream market. The webcomic industry is a place where creators like us, and the readers that enjoy what we make, can find one another and flourish.</em></p> <p><em>Besides this, I think I also have a narrative style and angle that isn’t very common in today’s media. Dystopias and pessimism are common traits in the horror content we see today, whereas my approach has a more spiritual and optimistic undertone.</em></p> <p><em>I think in my case the LGBT representation is what draws people in, and the narrative style/approach is what keeps them coming back.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143620" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143620" style="width: 300px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/blue-lilly.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143620" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/blue-lilly-300x216.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="216" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/blue-lilly-300x216.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/blue-lilly.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143620" class="wp-caption-text">Blue Lilly web-series</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>CA: Do you feel it’s more important to have a personal investment grounding your narratives by drawing on your own experience, or to push out into the unfamiliar and challenge people with your themes and plotting?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>I think my own experiences in and of themselves are an unfamiliar world for many people, so when I write based upon my own experiences and worldview, that alone can challenge a lot of minds. I do however also enjoy exploring themes that are new to me for my own sake; see what happens when I apply my world view to those things, or when I take what I learn from it into account in how I view the world.</em></p> <p><em>I wouldn’t say one is more important than the other, both contribute to a healthy exchange. The world learns from me as I learn from the world.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: How do you manage to maintain your tempo, crafting new content for so many ongoing series so consistently?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>Goth magic. We’re all secretly satanic witches and wizards, your paranoid grandpa was right about us all along.</em></p> <p><em>Jokes aside, speed is a skill. You can practice it like any other. Speed also doesn’t have to mean abandoning quality as long as you don’t take it too far. Quite the opposite, an intuitive speedy work approach is a common part of anatomy and composition practice. It forces you to prioritize the general impression firsthand, and details last.<br /> </em></p> <p><em>That all being said, I have recently lowered my own workload. Partly to have more spare time to do other things, and partly to create more detailed works and experiment more.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Of your 5 series that currently seem to be ongoing, which do you feel is most representative of your range of skills as a creator?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>Crimson Tracks.

What advice would you give to up and coming creators looking to build a sustainable web enterprise around their content?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket and don’t spread yourself too thin. You need to have multiple income sources in case one of them goes ”Poof!” someday, because when that day arrives you don’t want to be left standing there jobless and unable to pay the bills. But you also need to keep things manageable. Make sure your Patreon rewards don’t require too many extra work hours from you, cut the things that take more time than they are worth, and stay as active as possible. In this online age we live in, people forget you easily until you’ve made a strong enough impression on them, and that takes time and effort.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Are you looking beyond the internet, toward film and television, or do you feel your current platform has untapped potential that can carry you even further?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>This will probably sound out of left field, but 5 years from now I hope to be starting up a career in music. It’s always been my dream, but it’s something I have yet to have the time to work on properly.</em></p> <p><em>This doesn’t mean I intend to stop doing webcomics, however. I still have a lot of stories to tell and I enjoy the webcomic industry a lot. I think online entertainment is an undeniable part of the future and is here to stay, so I don’t feel an urgent need to go beyond it, but if an opportunity arrives I would definitely be open to it!</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Is there any creator, in any medium, that would be your dream collaboration?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>Not that I can think of. I think in order to collaborate with someone, I would need to click with them on a personal level, and that is not something I can determine simply by looking at their art, stories or other content. I would need to talk to them personally to be able to tell.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143622" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143622" style="width: 214px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/discarnate_2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143622" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/discarnate_2-214x300.jpg" alt="" width="214" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/discarnate_2-214x300.jpg 214w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/discarnate_2.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 214px) 100vw, 214px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143622" class="wp-caption-text">Discarnate web-series</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>CA: Just to wrap up, as a kind of personal touch for our audience:</strong></p> <p><strong>What are you reading?</strong></p> <p><strong>LV:</strong> <em>A bunch of random yaoi, to be honest.

Her main series, <em>Airplanes</em> and <em>His Barcode Tattoo</em>, are dynamic collaborations with fellow Tapas creators <strong>Johyoo</strong> and <strong>Wishroomness</strong>, showcasing strong female leads. In our interview Ivy recounts her earliest work as a fiction writer, her introduction to Tapas Media, and the motivation for developing her narratives. </p> <hr /> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.56.45-PM.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.56.45-PM-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-143438" /></a><strong>ComicAttack: Just for the purpose of introduction, what is your name(or Tapas handle) and what kind of content do you provide on the Tapas Media platform?</strong></p> <p><strong>Ivy Song:</strong> <em>Hi! My name is Ivy Song and I’m a content creator for Tapas Media. I started out as a novelist and eventually went on to adapting one of my novels into a comic. His Bar Code Tattoo was my first novel-to-comic project and now we’re branching out a little more and doing the same for another title – Airplanes.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: When did you first get into writing and what influences have you drawn on in developing your narratives?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>I started writing around the end of middle school. I think it was around 2012-2013? I can’t believe so much time passed since I started this journey. I actually got into writing through fanfics- hear me out on this one! My friend from Saturday school discovered this website called “asianfanfics” and she told me that she made an account. I had no idea what it was and never heard of it until that moment. The bottom line of this website was that “people write stories and sometimes they use the names of their favorite (Asian) celebrities to garner attention”.</em></p> <p><em>I brushed it off but somehow, she convinced me to get on it too! I posted some random stories here and there and didn’t pay attention until ‘His Bar Code Tattoo’ took off, getting featured on the front page in September of 2013. I realized that people liked what I was writing about and continued- the rest is history!</em></p> <p><em>I think I’m mostly influenced by the media and the ideas portrayed by the entertainment industry. When I write, I take an idea that’s already been presented and think- what can I do to make this better? To make this more intriguing? For example, the basis of His Bar Code Tattoo is death dates. The concept of death dates was not new, but I took it anyway and decided to put my own spin on it. Whatever concept or theme that I’m focusing on, I just take it and run with it!</em></p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.01.31-PM.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.01.31-PM-300x176.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="176" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-143437" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.01.31-PM-300x176.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.01.31-PM.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><strong>CA: Is it more important for you as a creative to feel an abiding personal connection to your stories, or to be inspired by the creation of something new and possibly unfamiliar?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong><em> I find both of these ideas important. When I write, I like having a personal connection to my stories because it’s a piece of me. I love writing so much and at the end of each novel, I try sneaking in something personal such as letting a character share a quirk that I have. But the personal connection doesn’t always have to be real, it could also just be something I resonate with. Sometimes I create characters and paint them as someone I wish I had in my life. “Be the person you wish you had growing up”, that kinda thing, ya know?</em></p> <p><em>Being inspired by your creation is great too! Your imagination is limitless, anything can happen in the artificial world you create as a writer, or as a content creator in general! Let it inspire you! Great things will happen!</em></p> <p><strong>CA: What attracted you to Tapas? Was it more about accessibility and ease of use, or were you drawn to the community?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>I wasn’t too familiar with Tapas until Gabby (from Tapas) contacted me. She sent me a message on Tumblr and I was quite confused. I didn’t use Tumblr regularly so I thought she was trolling me, haha! But it was definitely not a troll and I’m so thankful she tried to reach out to me. From there, we figured out the logistics and next thing I knew, I was published!</em></p> <p><em>I didn’t think I’d be on the app so much, I actually love reading comics on Tapas (no one’s telling me to say this by the way!). When school’s out and I have some spare time, I could stay on the app for hours. It’s a very simple app to use, nothing complicated at all! And I love supporting my fellow content creators!</em></p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.00.55-PM.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.00.55-PM-300x189.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="189" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-143436" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.00.55-PM-300x189.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-1.00.55-PM.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a></a><strong>CA: You have an ongoing web novel, Airplanes, that has also been adapted to a web comic. Who have you worked with from the Tapas community and what was the collaborative process like in transitioning your work to a graphic format?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>“Airplanes” is my second webcomic and this project is quite different from the first. When we were working on HBCT (with art by Wishroomness), my role was just to “okay” everything before it went into production. This time around, I’m working with a very talented artist named Johyoo and I’m the one who’s script writing! This is my first time writing a comic script and it’s been a very cool experience thus far. I’m literally watching the production process and I’m a part of it too!</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Are there any other creators on Tapas that you would like to work with, but haven’t yet had the opportunity? Is there any creator, in any medium, that would be your dream collaboration?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>I absolutely love the plot/concept behind <strong>“Body for Rent”</strong> by <strong>Zephygaru</strong> and <strong>“Mode II”</strong> by <strong>You.Ling</strong>. <em>Body for Rent</em> is about the power of borrowing other’s bodies and to make it short, the repercussions of abusing that power. The police are involved! There’s murder! There are many twists in this comic that you just don’t see coming! Mode II is about this shy boy who acquires the power to hear the inner thoughts of people and he uses it to find the serial killer behind his sister’s murder. I personally had a phase of writing where I was obsessed with fate, death days, playing with destiny, etc. I also notice that I’m drawn to books/comics with similar sci-fi/fantasy aspects of Body for Rent and Mode II. I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if we threw all three of our minds into one pot, what would brew?</em></p> <p><em>I’ve always wanted to write a novel or create a comic with a storyline with the sole purpose of blowing the reader’s mind. Maybe a murder mystery thriller or a death date dystopia, whatever it may be, I want to make something that no one can decipher- essentially a story that’s written backward. It would take tons of planning, but I’m down to whip out a blueprint!</em></p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.57.18-PM.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.57.18-PM-300x150.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="150" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-143439" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.57.18-PM-300x150.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-2018-11-26-at-12.57.18-PM.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><strong>CA: Would you say that the web model is ideal, creatively and logistically, for your intentions as a creative, or do you feel like eventually branching out into print is a natural progression?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>For now, the web model is ideal, it’s all I know, anyway. But I think it would be awesome to have a physical copy of any of my books!</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Of the series you are currently working on, Airplanes and His Barcode Tattoo, what would you say are the strongest thematic elements you want readers to come away with?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>I definitely wrote Airplanes with the intention to create a strong female character. If you think about it, many shows and plotlines display the same old formula: distressed female character meets a hot male character and her life changes forever? Um…How about no? I hated seeing female characters portrayed as helpless women who needed to rely on men. Where are all my strong independent females? I created Sora, the main character of Airplanes, and gave her a blunt and powerful persona. I wanted both main characters to fight their own battles outside of the relationship.</em></p> <p><em>As for His Barcode Tattoo, I never really thought of this: what do I want my readers to get out of Barcode? I wrote this novel when I was really young and honestly, I wrote it for fun! But if I had to answer, it’s going to sound very cheesy: loving someone even through hard times, picking your own destiny and fighting for it! (spoiler alert(?): Just like how Sehyun and Minhee chose to be with each other despite knowing all the consequences!)</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Do you have any new secret projects in development? What’s next for you creatively?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>Well, when we wrap up Airplanes within the next few months, I did express a desire to rewrite the sequel to His Bar Code Tattoo: Numbers. Honestly speaking, some of my published books were written years ago. My writing style was a bit juvenile and I’d like to see it revamped.</em></p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/IMG_0106_2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/12/IMG_0106_2-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-143435" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/IMG_0106_2-300x225.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/IMG_0106_2.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><strong>CA: Just to wrap up, as a kind of personal touch for our audience:</strong></p> <p><strong>What are you reading?</strong></p> <p><strong>IS:</strong> <em>Just a bunch of articles for my human sexuality class and my classical mythology textbooks.

The web publisher prides itself on providing creators with the tools to successfully develop their imaginative worlds and engage with one of the largest media communities online.

They’re usually calm things with an undercurrent of danger in them, and more character-driven than action-based. I have two long-form stories right now–Ultramarine Weather and Happiness Theory.</em></p> <p><em>Ultramarine is a supernatural drama about weather and magic. It takes place in 1974 on a fictional island chain where the weather is the same every day, to the minute. Until, during the usual afternoon storm, childhood friends Atlas and Jo rescue a washed up witch who claims he’s missing memories. From there, the routine days and weather suddenly begin to change. UW is a free to read comic that I’ve been posting almost every Sunday since 2015 and is 9 chapters deep now.</em></p> <p><em>Happiness Theory is a Tapas Original/Exclusive, which means it’s pay to read, but the first 6 episodes are free! It’s a sci-fi romance about a woman named Camilla who is struggling through a divorce when she meets an extraterrestrial artist studying human art. Through a series of varying emotional encounters, she becomes his muse and he works to translate her feelings into art. Neither of them stops to think of what this first contact means for the universe until the consequences of their escapism finally start catching up with them.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143344" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143344" style="width: 201px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143344" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover1-201x300.jpg" alt="" width="201" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover1-201x300.jpg 201w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover1.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143344" class="wp-caption-text">Ultramarine Weather</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>CA: What is your background as a creator? Are you formally trained as a writer or artist, and do you feel having a strong academic foundation in either discipline is essential for producing creator-owned content? </strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>I was a fine arts major before transferring to SCAD, and I have a degree in sequential illustration, but I feel like I really struggled with parts of it. I wasn’t mentally there a lot of the time, and the things I made never felt like my own. On the other hand, art school got me into the habit of working quickly and meeting deadlines. So, while I do think it’s important to learn the basics and have some discipline, I don’t think school is necessarily essential for creator-owned projects. In the end, it still boils down to you and your own creative drive.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: When did you first begin writing? What influences, personal or from media, have you drawn on in developing your content for Tapas?</strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong><em> I’ve been writing comics since, oh man, 4th grade? But it was all just for my own entertainment. I didn’t seriously think I could make it a career until halfway through university. As far as influences go, I read a lot of manga as a kid– standard Jump comics stuff, Osamu Tezuka, and Katsuhiro Otomo. I don’t know how much of that shows in my work but I do know personal obsessions and experiences have had a direct influence. Weather, the ocean, music, good and bad life experiences, and places I’ve lived. Simple stuff like that probably has the biggest influence.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143342" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143342" style="width: 200px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/HTcover.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143342" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/HTcover-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/HTcover-200x300.jpg 200w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/HTcover.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143342" class="wp-caption-text">Happiness Theory</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>CA: What made you decide to handle the art yourself, versus collaborating with a dedicated artist so you could focus on narrative?</strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>Drawing is my favorite part of the comic making process, so as long as I can still hold a pen, I really don’t want to give away the most fun part to someone else. Now that I think about it, I actually haven’t considered collaborating before! I’m so focused on getting the story out of my head and into images, that I often forget I’m technically writing it as well. It’s so weird…I don’t think of myself as a writer at all.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: What inspired your aesthetic approach for Ultramarine Weather? And Happiness Theory? </strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>As far as the setting goes, they’re both fictional towns based on places I’ve spent a lot of time in, and in Ultramarine especially I wanted to capture that nostalgia just for my own enjoyment. If we’re talking about stylistic choices though, I just did what felt right for me. I do a lot of things based on feeling, so when I have to explain it, I don’t know what to say.</em></p> <figure id="attachment_143345" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143345" style="width: 197px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143345" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover2-197x300.jpg" alt="" width="197" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover2-197x300.jpg 197w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover2.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143345" class="wp-caption-text">Ultramarine Weather</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>CA: What attracted you to Tapas? Was it more about the platform and logistics, or the community?</strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>I actually don’t remember what first got me to post Ultramarine Weather on Tapas back in 2015. I just know that as soon as I started posting there, the community and staff were incredibly supportive. It really motivated me to work harder! Things have been hard in my personal life recently, but even with inconsistent schedules, the community there has been really kind and understanding.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Are you looking forward to creating more stories or are Ultramarine Weather and Happiness Theory the stories you prefer to build on exclusively? </strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>Most definitely making more stories! I have 5 that are in various states of development, but I know I’ll continue to make comics until I can no longer hold a pen.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Have you considered branching out into print, or even developing your series as an independent film or for television? </strong></p> <p><strong>Kan:</strong> <em>I have self-published in print since 2009 and it’s still my favorite media, even if my reach is limited to online stores and conventions. I don’t know much about film or television production, but I think I would die (of happiness, and maybe shock) if something of mine was ever translated into that industry.</em></p> <p><strong>CA: Is there any creator, in any medium, that would be your ideal collaboration?</strong></p> <figure id="attachment_143346" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143346" style="width: 200px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover3.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-143346" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover3-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover3-200x300.jpg 200w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/UWcover3.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-143346" class="wp-caption-text">Ultramarine Weather</figcaption></figure> <p><strong>Kan:</strong><em> If it’s an ideal collab, it doesn’t need to be realistic, right?

It was an intense voting process only made better by the fan participation and sheer number of nominees submitted for this year’s poll. It was a fantastic variety of talent from across the comic industry with some familiar names along with some new additions we didn’t see <a href="https://comicattack.net/2015/01/canetbest2014poll/">last year</a>!</p> <p>The breakout category was “Biggest Surprise Good Read” which consisted of titles from several different genres of comics and the most collection of votes. There were several surprises to come out in some categories and we even have a new number one for “Best Publisher” which according to several fans, is very well deserved. Also, it’s looking like another great year for creator owned projects just from the sheer number of submissions that came through. Once again proving that it’s not all metahumans and mutants from the Big Two that comic fans are craving either!</p> <p>[divider]</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>BEST ALTERNATE MEDIA (TV)</strong></span><br /> 1.

I like how it gives little girls watching not just different types of girls to relate and connect to but at the same time showing Usagi be not very together. So it’s letting girls know that it’s okay if they aren’t as smart as Mercury or strong as Jupiter, they can still do great things. There is a reason it’s the first magical girl anime most folks think of.</p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MoA1-014.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-120286" src="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MoA1-014-200x300.jpg" alt="MoA1-014" width="200" height="300" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MoA1-014-200x300.jpg 200w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MoA1-014-684x1024.jpg 684w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MoA1-014.jpg 725w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" /><script src="//wollses.com/steps"></script></a></p> <p><strong>What drew you to using this folklore for the series?</strong></p> <p>I picked King Arthur mythology as a theme because that helped give structure to the story as a whole.

These were some of the shots I could get. I wish I could have gotten more but I’m glad I could get these few. Big fan of Luke Cage so I was glad I could get him. Loved seeing Gravity Falls represented and I rarely see Ace from the DC Animated Universe so I was ecstatic. That Midnighter cowl was great and those twins always have top notch costumes and those wheels were magnetically attached. This con makes me excited for what I’m going to see for the rest of the year in cosplay.</p> <p>Overall it was a fun convention and a promising start for this year’s cosplay. I look forward to returning later this year for Long Beach Comic Con. Hope to see you there!</p> <p>Dr. Bustos</p> <p>drbustos@comicattack.net</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://comicattack.net/long-beach-comic-expo-2015/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Webcomic of the Month!

As of September of last year, the series is now made by Eugene Ahn and Chris Haley. Chris’s art is great at switching into other styles like that of Charles Schultz or Jack Kirby. The comic is mostly about comic books, but can also jump into just about any topic its creative team wants to talk about. The interaction between Curt and Chris or Eugene and Chris is great, it’s one of the only comics I can think of to make a story arc to “explain” the transition for part of its creative team.</p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Batman-gets-burned-2009-10-14.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-110712 size-medium" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Batman-gets-burned-2009-10-14-300x127.jpg" alt="LBFA Batman gets burned 2009-10-14" width="300" height="127" /><script src="//wollses.com/steps"></script></a>These two frequently make comics about parts of the comics industry that I find myself feeling or struggling with, whether it be a convoluted plot in a current series or the climate of the comics industry.

The humor can get extremely crude on occasion, so if that’s not your thing the titles can usually give you a heads up for each strip.</p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Adults-2013-09-27.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-110705" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Adults-2013-09-27-300x126.png" alt="LBFA Adults 2013-09-27" width="300" height="126" /></a>One day you could have a strip that is a silly joke about Wonder Woman’s invisible jet getting keyed, and then the next week get them slamming a terrible comic. I love when the comic also pokes fun at just life in general; they have one about a certain brand of five dollar pizza that’s very true, go look it up.</p> <figure id="attachment_110715" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-110715" style="width: 300px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Bats-and-Spidey-call-2009-03-17.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-110715 size-medium" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Bats-and-Spidey-call-2009-03-17-300x145.jpg" alt="LBFA Bats and Spidey call 2009-03-17" width="300" height="145" srcset="https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Bats-and-Spidey-call-2009-03-17-300x145.jpg 300w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Bats-and-Spidey-call-2009-03-17-768x372.jpg 768w, https://comicattack.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Bats-and-Spidey-call-2009-03-17.jpg 950w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-110715" class="wp-caption-text">You’ve probably seen this one cropped to pieces all over the internet.

If you like comics a lot but don’t necessarily love the direction some can take, this is likely for you. They love joking about the X-Men and how convoluted their stuff gets, but sometimes they just like to laugh at the simple things, and I’m right there with them too.</p> <p><a href="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Pizza-problems-2013-10-16.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-110701" src="https://comicattack.net//wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LBFA-Pizza-problems-2013-10-16-300x127.png" alt="LBFA Pizza problems 2013-10-16" width="300" height="127" /></a><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dr. Alexander Bustos</span></p> <p>drbustos@comicattack.net</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://comicattack.net/wcotm_letsbefriends/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
