Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CROM
Q: How do you start a story now, and what does the genesis look like in practice?
You collaborate with writers, draft a thumbnail page-by-page outline, then refine through iterative commentary and layout testing before committing to final pages.
CROM
Q: From that first comic you finished, what has changed about your process now?
The process evolved from aiming for a perfect first draft to embracing a middle ground where planning guides the work but spontaneity keeps it alive; tools shifted from traditional ink to digital workflows, and thumbnails became a core step to keep the story flowing.
