Episode 37 - Kickstarting Your First Comic Book (With Clayton Barton & Rob Arnold)

How To Draw Comics

In this episode of the How To Draw Comics Podcast, Clayton's joined by special guest creator Rob Arnold to talk about what it takes to get your first comic book off the ground. Rob Arnold is the creator and writer of Replicator - a post apocalyptic sci-fi comic set in a dark future where disease, famine, violence and robot killing machines are an everyday occurrence. This is a project Rob has been rallying behind for years now to fully realize it - and the journey hasn't been easy. Like many creators, Rob turned to crowd funding platforms such as Kickstarter to financially back Replicator which he has successfully done now for two issues in a row (and soon hopefully three). So he's got some experience behind him when it comes to getting a comic book successfully funded, and in this interview that's one of the main topics we cover among the many others that'll give you insight into getting your first creator-owned comic book out there. We hope you enjoy this episode of the HTDC Podcast, it was an absolute pleasure to have Rob on the show. Thanks for listening and if you find the info in this episode valuable, remember to share it with your other artist friends. They'll thank you for it! -Clayton Replicator Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/replicatorcomic/ Replicator Kickstarter: http://kck.st/2WoktRs For more comic art tutorials, videos, courses and podcast episodes be sure to visit our site at: www.howtodrawcomics.net.
