Jason Thibault from Optimumwound.com just put together a really good post spotlighting “Four Great Creator Resources”. We would like to thank him for including Work In Comics in the mix along with three other excellent resources that can be extremely useful for any creator out there. The other three resources are Nexus, Webcomics.com and Optimum Wound’s Submission Guidelines Directory.

Here is an excerpt from the article:

“There’s a host of resources, online magazines, and membership sites out there for a comic creator to take advantage of this year. Actually the sheer volume of it on the internet is breathtaking and maybe a little overwhelming for a new creator.

Let’s a take a quick look at four places where you can either hone your skills, sharpen your marketing knowledge or attempt to obtain work in the comics industry.”
