Art and Superheroines: Psylocke as Drawn by Greg... →
Costume and character designs are just part of effective characterization in comic art. How those elements are portrayed are just as important, and a solid execution can make even a mediocre design work. ComicsAlliance has put up a great comparison of two artists depicting the same superheroine in wildly different forms, one being bizarrely sexualized to the detriment of all else and the other...
dustcladfeather asked: What about releasing the Nephilopolis posters as posters? I would love your "Broken robot? Kick it or something" poster to hang in my living room next to the Dalek one. Actually, any excuse to give you more money so you can keep making pretty things. Please?
myleakingbrain asked: Does Kim have a stomach implant as well? Having the prostheses run on glucose is clever, her body is already built to turn glucose into energy. But there is absolutely no way that she can metabolize all that food in one sitting without technological aids.

ishldgetoutmore asked: As a fan of the art deco style, I think Nephilopolis looks fantastic.

reviewofreviews asked: HI Aaron, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the 'boycott Jack Kirby-derived Marvel products' movement that seems to be making waves around the comics internet.

As someone who has succeeded artistically (your comic is AMAZING) and financially because of the ability to...
pizzarocketship asked: If I may be so bold as to ask, dear stranger on the internet, what did you do for a living prior to working on Dresden Codak full-time? What made you decide to make the switch?
spacebetty asked: Do you have a day job as well? Or is art all you do all day? Because if so, that is awesome. I love your work!
franchiru asked: Hey. I'm writing an essay on the relationship between man and machine for my Japanese Composition class, and I'm opening with a quote by Kusanagi. As I was transliterating his name, it occurred to me: is he actually of Japanese descent? If so, does he write his name with kanji, Japanese characters? And if that is the case, could you tell me what they are? (I don't think they...
s-les asked: Hey! I totally adore your web comic and love the artwork you put into it! Plus I was wondering; does Kim remember her little "incident" of her turning into the big blue (I need to find the right words XD) robot lady? And does anyone else recall it?
