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.
He doesn’t sleep; he waits.
He does. And Guy’s expression is spot on for the reaction such a discovery demands.
I do believe it’s safe to say that Frank can wait forever. He “can eternal lie”.
Careful, he may be waiting for you…………………….
I think it’s called “Odin’s sleep”.
so frank is powered by the Odinforce?
Maybe it’s not really him. It could be a robot duplicate…
Well that’s the first one I dont really got, I guess. May somebody nice explain it?
Guy sleeps, Frank doesn’t.
Guy gets scared (a rare situation).
It looks like Frank just powered down like C3P0 in Star Wars rather than sleeping.
We have seen that Frank looks exactly the same when Guy was a toddler and also when Guy and Wayne are old. This completely fits his eternal nature, as people actually sleep.
I was thinking along the lines of the Star Trek the Next Generation episode where Picard and Data are in a small room and Picard tries to sleep, and Data is just standing there stock still. It really unnerves Picard.
Frank never needs to sleep. He just stands there. He probably watches them sleep too, plotting on what to do next.
Wonder what he’s thinking of?
Maybe he’s sleeping under his goggles.
*Frank* “I have taught myself to sleep with my eyes open… Damn I’m tired.”
Guy finally realizes that she’s not the creepiest one around.
He powered down for the night.
I would agree that Frank appears to Power Down… if not for the fact he almost always remains in the same pose. Remember the comic where after a wild party he simply sits on the couch and his eyes start to bleed? I am not sure what Frank is, but he most certainly does not need a Bed to rest.
um no.
wow, give me a number, i cant have missed that.
I found it! After much, much searching. http://www.twogag.com/archives/1376. Number 87!
notice guy only appears to be freaked by things that frank does and never anyone else, waines head can get blown right on3 feet away from her and she won’t flinch, frank sneezes and she practicality has a heart attack
that face…
ಠ_ಠ
In episode 47 he falls asleep.
So does Frank even have a bedroom?
Funniest one in a long while! :-D
Hmm, does Frank-bot dream of shaved electric sheep?
Frank isn’t kinky like that.
i… i don’t get it
He’s Frank, we don’t have to get it. We just need to be afraid, very afraid.
I imagine his goggles pulsing gently with blue light when he’s in sleep mode.
Wouldn’t be the first time he’s creeped Guy out
I was actually looking for the mutated dog strip, but this one works as well.
I’m reminded of that one strip of Wapsi Square.
If you know the one I’m talking about then yeah, pretty darn freaky.
Frank doesn’t sleep…he waits…
The next morning:
“Rebooting, Rebooting, System upload complete”.
“Good morning, Guy”.
I remember Frank fighting himself~
and one of them dropped their goggles~
the question is which one was really frank~?
also if you remember there was that really weird demon~
that was haunting Frank a while back also~
there’s alot of strange things that seems to be attracted to Frank~
Just one more piece of evidence on what his full name is but I still can not figure out what the N stands for in his middle name.
Any suggestions?
