A must read for anyone that is planning on creating, updating and running a webcomic. This book has a lot of good information about the design of the website, the nuts and bolts of comic layout and image layout and lots of ideas on how to interact with the audience of the webcomic. I wish it had more advertising ideas though. The gentlemen who wrote the book also do a podcast at Wecomics Weekly that is terrific. They run some of the most popular webcomics on the internet and have great ideas and

I mostly liked this book for the artistic insights and reasonings behind webcomics. Two of the four authors are webcomic creators whose work I follow regularly, and it was fun seeing them interact and teach what they have learned.
That being said, there are two reasons this didn't get a full five stars (in fact, I'd probably give it 3.5 if it were an option):
1) Sloppy editing. Typos left and right in the book made it so that I had to do a lot of re-reading to make sure I More...

This is an essential read if you are remotely interested in making a webcomic. When Phil and I got this book, we sort of had an idea of what we wanted to do.

We owe pretty much all of it to the practical advice and the encouragement this book and its authors provide.

Superbly written overview of webcomics and their production. A must read if you're interested in starting one (like me.)

This book is full of information and has really been helpful. It doesn't spend much time addressing the art creation end of things. Instead it focuses more on how to do everything after you've actually created your strip.
I find myself looking to this book repeatedly for reference.
