Hey Planet Joey readers! I'm putting together some new materials and would genuinely love to know: what do you think distinguishes the comic strip or makes it feel like Planet Joey to you?

I really enjoyed the process of building the Planet Joey submission/proposal for GoComics! They were my #1 choice based on where I think Planet Joey really fits with them: YA publishing. Next up, Comics Kingdom and Creators Syndicate!

Dave and I dig into one of the trickiest parts of writing comics: how much work should the reader have to do to “get” the punchline? comiclabpodcast.com Apple Podcasts: buff.ly/hefbcEZ Spotify: buff.ly/ak4FP1H
The wildly handsome Brad Guigar (left) stands next to Dave Kellett, who is really doing his best. Thanks to the wonders of Photoshop, it looks as if the ComicLab logo is being launched from Dave's hand. 

It's not. That's just copy-paste.

Again... raw sexuality simply oozes from Guigar. You'd think the guy would be so busy fending off amorous advances that he wouldn't have time to write alt text for Blusky posts.

It may sound counterintuitive, but clear communication beats cute and clever every time when it comes to branding. Your social media profile is no place for jokey talk and ambiguous phrases. Your profile needs to answer three questions... buff.ly/N1CxTXS

COMIC: Is fire alive?
PANEL 1: SHELDON, a ten-year old boy with large glasses, strikes a match with a “FWIKK!” sound effect. ARTHUR, the yellow duck, stands looking at him. 
SHELDON: The greek philosophers used to debate whether fire was ALIVE.

PANEL 2: SHELDON holds the match up to his face, the fire’s glow reflecting on him.
SHELDON: It had all the hallmarks. It could grow… it could consume…it could procreate…

PANEL 3: SHELDON continues talking, just as ARTHUR blows the match out.
SHELDON: But it was missing THAT ONE KEY THING.
ARTHUR: phoo!

PANEL 4: SHELDON looks annoyed, as ATHUR makes his point.
SHELDON: Guilt.
ARTHUR: Fire knows what it did.

Strange Dreams - Planet Joey
Joey's journey to Cold Springs continues as he drifts into a lucid dream where a bunch of random characters introduce themselves... a harbinger to come?
