Looking for information on web comic makers

Post by Valkyrk »

I'm doing a very unofficial project, and I could use some information for it. Just select the option that applies to you in terms of age and status. There was a poll kind of like this a while ago, but I'm making a new one since that didn't quite get the information I needed. If you would like to comment on the results, by all means, go ahead.

On a completely unrelated side note, I was wondering what is the correct spelling of comicers, as in web comicers, and is that even a word?

I don't believe that it's a real word, and cartoonist is actually the proper term. I like to use it anyway, though. I usually add a "k", as in comicker, because it hardens the hard "kuh" sound, plus it looks cool.

Some people call us webcartoonists, but only cartoonist or eve comic artist are real terms, just throw Internet or Web in the front. Depending on what you're writing you can call us whatever you want.

Webcomickers are all nerds who can't get laid. That's all the information you need and certainly more than you wanted to know.

"Web Cartoonist" is what I would call myself if someone pressed me to narrow it down past just, "Cartoonist." "Webcomic maker" would work, but it's very informal.

Anyway, 25 and single.

This webcomicker gets laid but I usually don't go by that title.
I like web illustrator, cartoonist or comic strip artist. :wink:

I counted myself as married since we're so far engaged we may as well be.

Maybe you can't... :P

I'm currently engaged, but I counted myself as married. Makes sense to me. (...holy crap, the wedding is a little over three months away!)
