What’s a little theft, lies and murder between friends anyway?
If you haven’t checked out my Twitter yet, you can keep not doing so if you want to.
I mean, nothing’s gonna happen if you don’t.
Twogag has changed storefront, the new site shares the store with a lot of other cool comics that you might also read. So now you can buy merchandise and support several comics while also saving up on shipping costs.
It’ll be a while til the T-shirts will be back however, I apologize for that but there are a bunch of new prints available in the store that wasn’t purchasable in the old one. Be sure to check it out to see if you find anything you like.
Happy shoppin’
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.
Of course, Frank’s definition of “a good kid” probably differs from that of most of humanity.
So, is Jason looking for revenge, or payment?
or maybe he is really a good kid and he was framed for all the murders by Frank.
And there-in lies the joke.
Given in the last panel, in fact.
Odd for Frank to fail to head off a potential problem by not killing it. Odder still for him to say somebody is a good kid – must be why Jason still lives.
I think this is the first time we’ve seen Frank interest in somebody’s wellbeing. For a man with so few people he cares about I can’t imagine he’d be chomping at the bit to end one of them without reason to.
That’s not to say I think he wouldn’t kill Jason if he saw any need to do so, but probably not gonna just kill the guy for convenience sake.
of course he framed all his crimes to the poor kid…… for sience!
i bet jason looks a lot like wayne.
Jason “The Body Snatcher”…. Catchy
Frank must have many enemies…
More like many Jasons.
And that my little ponies, is why Friendship is Magic.
Love that. It’s cute, a good reference, funny, and relevant.
I guess Frank was the one that was in the asylum. When Jason went to visit him, Frank manage to swap them and let Jason in his place. Old ex-friends.
That is something that my friends would do. Is that bad?
I love Guy’s “Put Upon” expression she always has. :D
Frank didn’t actually commit the crime, he just likes framing people for crimes they didn’t commit.
This is the first time Frank’s ever been (very close to) directly implicated in something murderous isn’t it? It’s usually been much more subtle.
There have been a few less subtle ones before.
bring out the Wayne army!
That would be awesome, but I think an entire army of Waynes is more trouble than it’s worth.
Hey I love this comic, but…
is there a problem with the scale? I mean, Frank is sitting right next to Guy, yet she is enormous compared to Frank. She could crush him like a bug. What gives?
huh, you’re right. Guy does appear slightly larger than Frank when it should be the other way around. Cut and Paste, maybe?
Guy is very clearly sitting at the table, as evidenced by her elbow resting on it, and the newspaper she is reading. But Frank? He could be standing some distance from the table, so that perspective effects would explain the apparent size difference. We’ll have to wait for him to take a swig from his mug to find out.
Awesome. :D This was your funniest page since… umm, a couple months I guess.
