There’s no getting around it, producing comics can be a costly passion. But many new creators walk head-first into costs that they could avoid by planning ahead.
By not having a script with accurate (and realistic) formatting for comics, your final page count, and art budget, can balloon out of control.
By not properly advertising an artist to work with you, you’re less likely to get an artist that’s appropriate for your comic.
By not understanding the difference between an illustrator and sequential artist, you may be trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
By not having a good marketing strategy before the comic has been made, you are wasting momentum and potential while you wait for the art to be done.
As you can see, there are a lot of pitfalls that new writers could find themselves in. Just one of these could potentially double your production costs and waste valuable time.
And that is why I created this course, specifically for new comic writers, so you can begin production of your comic confidently, knowing how much it’ll cost as well as what you plan to do with it once all of the art pieces are put together.
I spent £80,000, plus the numerous fails I’ve had as a comic creator over the years, which has wasted both time and money. So, I understand how it feels.
I didn’t realise until recently how big of an issue writers of comics faced until I spoke with them, both in a 1-2-1 setting and through forums. Here’s what some writers have said about working with me so far.
“He provided very helpful feedback and super useful information at every single stage of the comic making process. Really glad I found him online! He helped with each part and went above and beyond from script feedback to contract advice. Fast and quick replies and no question was too silly. Encouraging mentor I would highly recommend and I will definitely use his services again in the future!”

“John was not only a pleasure to work with, he offered me feedback and insights that were an immense help that right away improved my project. His impressive background in art and comics and his knowledge about the art and the business of making comics are an invaluable resource. If you’re looking for someone to help take your comic project to the next level, you should get in touch with John”
- Christine Hauswirth
“Very easy to talk to, and gives an honest feedback and information on all kinds of concerns and questions.”
- Aaron Strey
