The Workbench Entry 09/09/2024: Honey, I'm home!

Hello, birdies! I have returned from exhibiting at Ottawa Comiccon and boy... what a rush it was.

It was even better than I imagined. The people are so friendly, it's now more family oriented so I saw a lot of adorable families cosplaying together, I had really good neighbors, I ran into an old friend who came in person to my booth to support me and I learned some valuable lessons that I will share with all of you.

Have 1,000 copies of your card/bookmark which you will give out for free and make sure it has a QR code.

If you are a webcomic author, your best selling product will be sketch cards for $2 each and it's ok to sell fanart too.

Have sketches ready for display and selling, and take note of which character sells the most and have spares ready.

Offer specials such as three sketch cards for the price of $5.

The thing you're trying to sell the most is yourself so be social and friendly by saying hi to people and offering your free card/bookmark and sketches.

Have the Paypal app on your cellphone.

Have your QR code on display.

Accept Paypal AND cash, and be ready to receive a lot of coins in cash.

And that's what I learned. Time to get back to the usual. Also, if anyone is interested, I have lowered the prices of my commissions since they're all digital and after what I experienced at Comiccon, I now accept fanart commissions. It's only wrong if I plagiarize or claim character that aren't mine. I am also selling physical copies of the prints I have leftover.

Go to my Ko-fi page here to commission me, shop from me, support me or even become a member.

Shout out to my editor @headdypidgeon4180 and @tntmtheshow (missed you guys a lot).

It's good to be back. - MK_Wizard

Magical Beatdown review

[tajliyaj]

No Reason To Apologize (Teach Media), 2022.

Adapted from the play Controlled Damage by Andrea Scott, this graphic novel illustrates with more nuance the resilient life of Viola Desmond. I admire the way Scott illustrates the various relationship dynamics Viola would have had to navigate being a light-skinned biracial Black woman at this moment in Canadian history.

There is much to learn from her story about the small and large ways individuals contribute to activism from different angles, the constraints and push-back that can be faced by various groups, and how community care and resilience is ultimately at the centre of it.

The Canadian superhero school

It's pretty small and based on from what I've read, it does have its own peculiarities to stand out in some way. In the case with a number of the Canadian superhero comics I've read, female sidekicks do exist but they're not so frequently victimised. Same goes for love interests but then again Canadian superhero comics aren't so continuously published, well until now, so they don't really have much of a large canon to draw from.

Another thing is that it's generally not as meta as American superhero comics tend to be, in the sense of not being so deeply metafictional in most other cases. The only Canadian superhero comic to be close to metafictional would be Northguard where the character of Philip Wise is shown to be reading a comic book, but when he does become a superhero he has to train in order to become one or something like this.

Whereas in American superhero comics when superpowered characters become superheroes, they head straight into action whereas Philip Wise had to train to get to where he is. It's not hard to see how different and even unsuperhero a number of Canadian superhero comics are, even if they do come close they don't really seem as superheroic as their American counterparts are in some places. The older Captain Canuck comics feel more straight up science fiction.

The Northguard comics has come to involve geopolitical commentary, the Pitiful Human-Lizard does away superhero cliches altogether. Lev Gleason's Fantomah is very rooted in horror and so on, based on the stuff I've read so far. But it's not hard to see how American superhero comics will always involve rollicking action, even the horror-based characters get into the same as well.
