An original graphic novella, totaling over 440 panels (roughly the equivalent of 70-80 standard comics pages) in 16 weekly installments. The story reunited the cast of my '80s superhero series Zot!, the only place outside the original series that the characters have appeared.
The artwork was rough. I was still getting used to drawing on a Wacom tablet (in late 2004, I finally started using a Cintiq) and some of it was a bit rushed. The images were compressed too (to accommodate turn-of-the-century dial-up speeds) and look a bit jaggy in places.
"Hearts and Minds" gave me the opportunity to test-drive some of my screen-as-window design ideas for online comics, while still telling a more-or-less straightforward story. Some were subtle, like varying the space between panels to influence pacing or creating storylines that were both literally and figuratively "parallel." Others were more bombastic, like Week Three's infamous 6,000 pixel-tall falling panel (might have to click that one to get your browser to display at full size).

Andy had more eye surgery and is doing physically VERY well, so we began discussing his comic and, well, things may change soon. He has come a LONG way since they told us to get his affairs in order a couple years ago, but he does have medical bills that have piled up, so, I have to concentrate on that. I look forward to hearing from everyone. He cannot use the facebook messenger without help, so he has that shut off.
well I am trying to be good as these comic book pages, though I am not trying to be actually like these pages, I just want to be good enough to be nearly as good as those pages. this is the artwork I have found from my collected graphic novels I have.

Thanks @raghukamath, I no doubt will be my own publisher, so I guess it really is just dependent on me and my choice. And even though I would love to have my work printed, I doubt I will ever actually get around to it unless the comic became actually popular.
These are comics that happen to be readable on the web but are not designed for it. They follow the usual rules of printed comics when it comes to aspect ratio and size because they are designed with printing as priority.
So, if getting your stuff printed is your main priority, then go with whatever the standard is in your country or your print service provider can deliver (or your publisher recommends). Later you can decide how to present it online.
Web-Comics have become a very different experience than the normal printed one. They often use the features of the web and the fact that you have a page with infinite length (the screen) to aid in storytelling or dramaturgy.
So if you plan to do a web-comic that is primarily web-focused you basically enter a new world of comic making with a lot of possibilities. However as you go deeper into the rabbit hole, the harder it will get to print your stuff.
I agree that it is important to keep in mind that the experience of a comic on the web/digitally is different from reading it in print, and changes are needed sometimes to make the comic more screen friendly.
Do you debate the finer details of DC vs. Marvel Universes, know every iteration of Batman, Superman, and/or Spidey, and think Rob Liefeld is either a legend for co-creating Deadpool or an overrated artist with too much influence (or somewhere in between)? Or, perhaps Sin City, The Watchmen, and The Walking Dead fuel your thoughts? Regardless of your specific preferences and opinions on comics, it's possible to turn your passion for sequential art into cash as an online business!
If you love finding and collecting great comic books and graphic novels, and have a desire to share this love with the world, you may already have the foundation for a business you can excel at. All you need is the right starting point and the right tools. Shift4Shop has everything you need to launch your dreams and start selling comic books online.
Since people tend to share content that affects them emotionally, it's more important than ever to understand the demographic you're selling to. Fans of comic books are deeply invested in their favorite characters and stories, so you have a way to connect with them right away. But you still need to decide which types of comic book fans you're going to try to attract to your store. Writers are often told to "write what you most want to read." This adage translates well into eCommerce. What comic books fueled your passion to collect, and which new comics and graphic novels pique your interest now? Why do you love them? What defines you as a customer, and what do you have in common with other comic book collectors? Should you sell collectible classics like The Amazing Spider-Man and The Dark Knight, or jump on the fast-moving graphic novel train? What about manga? Should you expand into trading cards and other licensed merchandise to satisfy your target audience?
Knowing who you want to sell to can often help you define what you want to sell and why. In marketing parlance this is known as branding. Knowing the answers to those brand identity questions is over half the battle to creating a successful online comic store.
You might be starting out by selling off your own massive collection, but even so, you will quickly need to plug into a reliable and good-quality product supply chain. After all, if you want to keep your business running, you'll need to source more comic books to keep selling after you've sold out of the ones you already have. You can start by finding comic book outlets that restock popular series and carry a few marquee early edition classics. Online resources like eBay can be useful, and you can also visit your favorite wholesalers, gaming/comic shops, and conventions to acquire physical inventory.
If you're selling back issues or rarities, you'll want to make sure your pricing reflects the actual value of these comics as collectibles. There are several resources to help you learn about pricing. The Wizard magazine used to be the go-to source (and has attempted a comeback), but today, you can find comic book pricing guides online.
Some comic pricing guides are free, while others offer paid services. Examples of online comic pricing guides include ComicsPriceGuide.com, QualityComix.com, and ComicBookRealm. Sell My Comic Books is a buyer and appraisal service with a useful article about how comic book price guides work, and while they do want you to use their service, this is a good introduction to the process and pitfalls of comic book pricing. Wikipedia also has a small list of both printed and online comic book pricing guides (as well as a brief explanation of quality grades that should only be used as a starting point).
Comic book grades also come into play if you're selling used or collectible back issues. They represent the condition of the comic and run from Near Mint condition down to Poor. Near Mint comics sell for the most, while Poor comics sell for the least and in many cases aren't worth much as collectibles at all. You need a solid understanding of these grades in order to price your comics appropriately and to prevent customers from being upset that their purchase didn't match the quality grade at which you advertised it.
The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide is an annual print publication that is considered the top authority on how to grade comic books. If you want to read about comic book grading online, Lone Star Comics' website MyComicShop.com has an excellent guide you can use to grade your own comics. Their standards are based on the same ones found in the Overstreet guide.
Once you're ready to start building your online comic book store, you're going to need the right eCommerce platform to serve as your foundation. This means choosing shopping cart software that has everything you need to sell online and meet the unique needs of a comic book retailer. For example, you need powerful and flexible inventory management that works equally well whether you have dozens of a particular issue in stock, or only one of a highly collectible issue. Unlimited product categories will help customers find the comics they're looking for. Waiting lists are great for customers who hope you'll be getting more of a sold-out issue in stock, and pre-orders are fantastic for promoting new releases ahead of time.
Other important features include unlimited product photos with zoom, especially for selling collectible issues that customers will want to inspect closely before buying. And Shift4Shop's Make-an-Offer Price Haggling feature will allow you to accept the best offer from customers, and submit counteroffers until both of you agree on a price.
