Talksplode #46 - Making Comics with Blair Butler and Charles Soule - a podcast by ifanboy.com

October 6, 2011 - This is a very cool episode of Talksplode. We’ve got Blair Butler of G4?s Attack of the Show and writer of the upcoming Image series, Heart, and Charles Soule, writer of 27, also from Image Comics, but we’re not just going to be plugging books. Along with Josh Flanagan, also a comic book writer looking to get published, the discussion is all about making comics, breaking in, getting started, finding artists, and the real things involved in the process. From marketing to design to scripting to page layout, we cover a lot of ground in this lengthy and diverse discussion about what’s it’s like to make professional, independent comics today.

Part of the discussion was based on this piece, Making Comics: Why I’ve Failed So Far.
