I’ve attempted to write a FAQ a few times but they’ve always ended up not helpful or helpful but depressing. But due to a recent spike in questions I’ve decided to just go for it.
Besides this post, the FAQ also got it’s own permanent page.
Is Guy and Wayne a couple?
- No they’re just friends, if that’s a word you can use to describe their relationship. Frenemies?
Do Frank, Guy and Wayne live together, like are they roommates?
- This is unclear even to me, If a joke requires them to be roommates, then that’s what they are.
What’s Guy’s real name?
- I’m not sure, I haven’t asked.
Hello, I’m a writer and I need someone to draw a comic, I can’t pay right now, (maybe later if the comic sells) but It’ll be good practice and great exposure for you! are you interested?
- No, I got my own stories I would like to tell if I ever got the time. Also those reasons aren’t real.
Do you have any tips on how to start a webcomic?
- Just start it.
No, Really.
I don’t know how to make a website for my comic, can you help?
- Neither did I but then I Googled “comicpress” you should too.
How do you become a professional artist?
- By having people pay you to do art. You can be a professional artist at any skill level, as long as you make a living out of your craft, you’re by definition a “professional artist”.
Of course, the more skilled you are, the bigger the chance of someone paying you. but you need to market yourself, very few artist just gets “found”.
How long have you been drawing?
- I started for real around 2003, then around 2006 I decided it’s what I’d like to do with my life.
Do you exhibit at any conventions?
- I’d like to, I attended San Diego Comic Con in 2011, but I’ve yet to exhibit at any convention. Living in Sweden makes the logistics and expenses very overwhelming.
Some day!
How did you come up with Twogag?
- It kinda just evolved from a vacuum. I only knew what I didn’t want in the comic. I didn’t want Twogag to rely on pop culture references, I didn’t want any self insertion characters and I didn’t want it to be about videogames.
How do I become an artist?
- Draw.
How do I become a writer?
- Write.
I’d like to become better at drawing, got any tips?
- Everybody says this, but it’s the only way, man. Just draw, draw, draw, draw. Sacrifice your gaming, friend and movie time and draw some more.
But something every aspiring artist should ask themselves is; “do I actually like to draw, or do I just like the idea of drawing?”
I want to become a professional webcartoonist, got any tips?
- Love drawing, hate money.
If you meet the above criteria and do create a webcomic, market it. Don’t just post your pages or strips and expect readers to find it.
Do you write your comics beforehand or just free-ball it?
- I generally start out with a vague idea or concept and develop it either in my head or as I write it.
It’s a good idea to remove yourself from distractions such as the internet while doing this. I used to browse sites a lot with the excuse “I’m looking for inspiration.” but that has yet to work.
What software do you use?
- Adobe Photoshop.
What version of Photoshop do you use?
- It doesn’t matter.
What’s the best question you’ve been asked?
- This one.
Will you ever make a FAQ?
- I have a feeling the frequency of this question will subside, but yes.
Oh wow, I demand a Wallpaper with just guy in those 2 outfits! SHE LOOKS FUCKING GREAT!
word!
HELL YA
Hot Guy in uniform :3
She’s missing the riding cropp.
Well, the green circle agency of Wayne in the third panel. Okay.
Also, she looks awesome in those two outfits OuO
3rd panel – WAYNESHIRT POLICE. Awesome.
Probably it’s from the universe where Wayne rules over everything with his unicorns…
There are no viable timelines where Wayne is in charge.
It is one of the constants of the universe, like the potency of Laser Stallions.
So maybe this is a timeline where he was a martyr for the cause?
I’m thinking one where Lars is a major fashion designer.
All Hail Overlord Wayne
The outfits in the last panel reminds me of Nazis, but the cloths look like Wayne’s, so that makes me think of A Nazi Revolution lead by Wayne XD
How come no one ever calls Frank hot? Because I, for one, think he looks smashing in both those flux outfits. Also he’s my favorite character. Guy’s hot and all, sure, but seriously. Frank.
I can’t even. I demand an illicit calendar of Frank in several forms of facial hair styles and uniforms. Then you can take my money.
I think you meant temporal quantum flux device, not dice.
Dice give you random outcomes everytime you roll them, so no it really wouldn’t be incorrect to call it that… if the grammar error doesn’t annoy you. It’s one device, shouldn’t it be called the Temporal Quantum Flux Die? o:
No, its clearly a dice, dont you see the dice sha… nvm :P
I’m having a bigger problem with the fact that “dice” is the plural form. Tsk tsk, I would expect better grammar from Frank. It’s a Temporal Quantum Flux Die.
Dice is also accepted as the singular form.
Dice (plural) is correct. I see three of them, one in each panel, and since this appears to be just a small representative sample it’s probably way, way more numerous than that. How can the plural form be inappropriate?
Strictly speaking, since the device exists in multiple realities, in multiple forms, Frank is actually correct in calling it the Temporal Quantum Flux Dice.
Another interesting fact: Frank only refers to people he talks to in the singular form because it results in a measurable increase in positive response.
I see, so his grammar is fine, he’s just looking at the big picture. The really, really big picture.
I guess I just have to say it. It was dumb of me to question Frank! Thank you all for showing me the error of my ways!
So Frank has a portal to an alternate reality, a near real time simulated reality, and can cause fluxes in the time line of the Earth Prime reality.
Who kicks more ass than Frank?
Can’t edit, but forgot to add that the Diesel Punk look works for Frank & Guy.
That is a Game of Thrones Guy.
Frank’s badass grandma
Damn thats cool. The many faces of frank is hilarious! Woot steam punk Frank and Guy! XD
this is my new favorite page…of all time
I like how she just pressed the button before frank even said anything. No big deal, could be a bomb. Could be a whistle. Could kill Wayne.
If it kills, injures, or otherwise damages Wayne in any way then Guy will find a way to make it happen. The entire history of this loveable strip proves this UnU
That’s just how she rolls.
This one was amazing. Thank’s for reminding me why I follow twogag.
“Every once in a while however, it just flux things right up.”
This deserves a sequel.
A sequel where, in one of the random changes, Wayne replaces Guy and/or Frank.
I don’t think Guy would let Wayne trade places in any universe.
As for switching with Frank… didn’t that universe suffer a cataclysmic explosion?
True, very true. I barely escaped with MY life. XD
In the second panel I started hearing British ballroom music.
Those red, shiny, candy-like buttons really just _beg_ to be pushed, don’t they?
Of course my dirty mind wants a nude timeline…
I WANT AT LEAST TWO, so i can press both at the same time
The Military Universe Guy and Frank are now my favorites, with the naked Frank and Cowgirl Guy from way back following in at a close Second Place.
been reading this since the start and this is by far my favorite strip so far.
brilliant.
I love playing dressup with Guy!
Regarding Frank’s grammar, even if you consider that multiple copies of the device exist across realities, his wording is still incorrect: “[i]That’s[/i] a temporal quantum flux dice.” – he identifies the object with the singular (that), then refers to it with the plural (dice), so whichever way you look at it, the statement is self-contradictory.
And no, “dice” is never properly used as the singular, that’s just a common misuse.
(I agree, and I noticed the “a dice” thing, but I didn’t really want to start a grammar argument. I looked into it, and while “dice” was not the correct plural, enough people use it that way that dictionaries started noting its use, which of course encouraged it, and now many dictionaries are all like “don’t worry, it’s cool, you can just do whatever you want.” Still, I think the “correct” usage should not be decided by general usage, nor by grammarians sitting in a room somewhere, but by the people who use the word MOST. Few or no analog gamers or other people who frequently use dice EVER use “dice” as the singular. That, I think, makes “dice” unacceptable as a singular.)
Except that there ARE gamers, as well as dice manufacturers, that use the term “dice” as both plural and singular. Just because you’ve only met a few doesn’t mean they exist. Personally, most of the people I game with use it as a singular.
don’t exist*
Wow, can’t believe I didn’t catch that before submitting.
