Every Tuesday night on Breaking the Panel, we discuss the business and craft of sequential art. If there's an aspect of the industry that you'd like to hear us discuss, please post it in this thread. Also, if you have a specific question you'd like answered by our panel of comic book experts and idiots, (again) please post it in this thread. Thanks, Tim |

I enjoyed your guy's discussion about the Comic Cons.
Could you elaborate more on selling prints - how you choose which ones to sell, how many you print off, where you usually print 'em, etc...

I don't want to clutter up the 'reviewed portfolios' topic, so it can stay relatively easy to navigate, but I did want to suggest taking the reviewed pages and saving them to their own album, instead of posting them right out of the artist's gallery.
Because the artist may choose to delete the pages from their gallery and when that inevitably happens, the related recording will be incomplete.
And it would be great for listeners coming along a year or a few months from now to make sure the art reviewed is still available to view with the recordings.

Show 17 was one of the best so far! Very interesting conversation of the in's and out's of the biz, indy cons and the struggles of getting work even after you've worked on major publications. I did want to comment, did Mark Brooks insult all the past reviewies by reviewing the pages in the first place? And if I ever get my pages reviewed, does it mean I have no shot of breaking in??  ;D Can you guys address the topic of indy publishers and doing a lot of work for no money up front or how does that usually work?? Is it worth the path of going through indy publishers to be one day notice by the big boys? |

Thanks for the great questions, Matt. I hope that we can answer them on the next episode of the show!

In the last show, Denham mentioned doing a page in 15 hours. Frank Cho talks about blocking out entire books in hours and then spending an eternity in finished pencils. What is the average time artists spend on sequential pages or covers?
What is the overall approach to knocking out pages? Example: thumbnails, blocking out story, then to finishes? Do most go panel to panel finishing the entire panel or complete the characters then come back to the background? I'm sure each artist has his own take on it, but would love to hear the panels' approach.
Thanks.

Was wondering if the panel would discuss the overall production of what they have to deal with in regards to an editor? How does the flow work from receiving a script and concepting the visuals? Do you usually review your page thumbnails with the editor for approval before moving to the next step. I assume this is the case to reduce the amount of rework?
BTW, picked up Brook's Young Avengers Dark Reign #1 and really enjoying the artwork. Noticed the shout out to Walter's on Executioner's computer monitor. Excellent.
