I recently started coloring pages for my comic book and now I planned my prelaunch just for I to fail miserably and someone gave me advice to give a month to two to gain audience on my social medias so please follow us on our Instagram for support.

I’m incredibly excited to finally share the first black-and-white preview of Ashes of Njthera. This project has been growing in my sketchbooks and on my desk for a long time, and seeing these pages come together makes it feel more real than ever. These are just the first steps into Lyra’s journey, and I can’t wait to show you more of the world, the characters, and the story that’s been taking shape. I’d love to have you see Lyra’s journey through the galaxy as she tries to save her world and whatever is left from this terrible war.

Hey! This is my comic called FIDELITY, it’s a mecha. Just seeking general feedback on these first 3 pages.

Hi! I’m working on a fantasy romance webcomic cover for my story The Forbidden Love, and I’m close to calling it finished. I’d love honest critique before I do.
I’m especially looking for feedback on:
shading/rendering
color balance
composition/readability
whether the title and silhouette work well
anything that feels unfinished or distracting
I’m still learning shading, so I’m trying to figure out if the hair, dress, skin, and background all feel cohesive together. Any constructive feedback is appreciated!
Please be specific if something looks off — I’m trying to improve, not just get compliments.

Check out the rest of chapter 1 and chapter 2

Hi,

Some time ago I started developing a graphic novel that I intend to produce myself, from the story itself to at least the sketches for the complete novel - I'll see later if I hire an illustrator/ inker. At the moment, I have the story's structure and, little by little, I've started to shape it, but the method I'm using is causing me to get constantly blocked. I explain the method I'm using in case you'd like to comment on it or if it's helpful, keeping its limitations in mind:

- World: I create sketches with notes about the world the characters will inhabit. It's an imagined world, but very much rooted in my personal experience.

- Characters: I have sketches with basic characteristics of them, although I still need to define aspects of their lives and the community they live in (what they do for a living, who's been involved with whom, things like that).

- Synopsis: on one page of the complete novel (8 chapters), with a brief description of the content of each chapter. Each chapter is an illustrated volume that will be produced and published sequentially.

- Chapters: Separately, I use A5-sized sheets (index cards) to create the script for each scene, notes for sketches, and dialogue. Each card corresponds to one page of the novel (for example, each chapter has 24 pages, though this isn't a fixed number).

- Scenes: Each chapter is composed of a number of scenes, which varies depending on the story's development. Before writing a scene, I note on each card the approximate number of pages (index cards) I have available to tell the story, so I can visualize the entire chapter without getting lost in the description of each scene (which could end up being very long).

- Pages - Side A: On one side of the cards, I describe the story, details, what the characters do, and what their environment is like. The descriptions are short, about 10 lines, so I don't get lost in the details.

- Pages - Side B: On the other side of each character sheet, I write the dialogues the characters are having, using the story description on Side A as a reference. Using this method allows me to plan the entire story, zooming in and out on parts that come to mind or that aren't yet ready, while also allowing me to change details and rewrite a character sheet without having to rewrite an entire chapter. However, it causes me blockage because I'm developing details and connections in a story where the complete narrative isn't defined (the story only exists in its "synopsis"), and which I have neither the intention nor the time to write as a preliminary step to writing the novel.

I would appreciate your opinions on the method, any important parts I've left out, and any other advice to avoid getting block due to the lack of having a complete story developed ... Thank you in advance!

Comrades! I come to you in a time of need. I began creating my first comic, and did a lot of work before I actually tested the storytelling by letting someone look it through.

Now I recieve very mixed feedback, that make it VERY clear that the progression leaves out important clues and aspects, and I need your help to nail down the key issues!

What you're about to see are the two original pages, with a new page added in-between (the very rough scetch) to accomodate for the initial round of feedback.

I'll try first by letting the comic speak for itself, and later I'll explain the flow I initially envisioned. This is just to see to which degree I've failed at conveying the story xD

If you would be so kind, before you add your valuable feedback, tell me what it is that the story conveys so far!

Hi everyone! Would love some feedback on my comic. I know the faces are a little wonky at times and will try to improve on that if I continue with more chapters. Thanks!

Also you can read the second half for free if you're interested: https://globalcomix.com/c/resonance-2

Hello. I started a comic with the intention to make it a weekly release. This is my first entry, which is essentially a double spread (two pages). I would appreciate any feedback or critiques.

For some time I've been trying to be innovative with the way my webcomic works, I have tried fancy stuff like lazy loading, responsive comic pages, unorthodox layouts, and I want to know what people really think. Does it encourage or discourage you from reading? I have asked before, most of the time people ignore me (which hurts I have to admit), sometimes I get polite praise but sometimes I have received hard-love feedback that I found actually very useful, helping me find and correct errors and bad practices that I hadn't noticed but readers did. I know I still have a lot of things to improve. I have been working on adding color and improving the user experience and I really would like to know if the effort was worth it, or what should I do to make it work. Please be honest. I really prefer brutal honesty over polite praise.

Here's a couple of blog posts where I explain on more detail some of the special stuff i've been doing:

Thanks!

(edit: The title should read tough-love, not hard-love. My bad)

I'm still very new to making comics and would like to know and hear feedback on anything this comic is flawed on. These pages aren't really an opening to the story, they are just random scenes inside the story. If any more context is needed I would happily explain it!

I'm asking if serious stories, like, with mature content, can still be seen as serious even with an upfront childish/cartoonish arts styles

Uma capa para o livro e a HQ, ou duas capas diferentes para cada? Eu estou transformando o meu livro em uma HQ, devo manter a mesma capa do livro na HQ? Ou devo criar uma específica para a HQ?

Hi guys. Anyone has some cool idea for a short oneshot that they don't mind i use as practice? You will of course get credit for the story. My own stories are super long and ambitious, so i wanna start with something smaller.

What i like is historical/fantasy. Seinen/adults, horror/thriller/dark. Psychological or philosophical. It can have cool action, but action must not be the sole focus.

Eu realmente fiz só pra passar o tempo, estava com preguiça.

Hey everyone,

I’m currently laying out my comic pages and finding that relying on pure intuition makes the process incredibly slow. I'm actively working and experimenting, but because the layout possibilities are endless, it's hard to get things to come together in a way that actually feels right. I want to move past just "trial and error."

I’ve read Scott McCloud’s Understanding Comics (the section on panel shapes/time on pages 98–103 was great, but the rest felt too abstract) and checked out Matt Madden’s 99 Ways to Tell a Story.

I want to build a logical, structural basis for my pages. Specifically, I'm looking for resources that explain:

• Why choose one panel shape over another? (jagged, slanted, rectangular, circular. etc)
• Why choose one panel ratio over another? (cinematic wide, or super vertical, neutral, etc)
• Why place a panel in a certain spot on the page? (What is it trying to accomplish or say)
• Why size a panel a certain way compared to the ones next to it?

Are there any technical books, blog breakdowns, or video essays that treat page layouts like a science or architectural blueprint rather than just abstract "artistic feeling"?

Thanks!
