After 27 years of exhibiting at the show, Dave just had his best Comic-Con ever — including an absolutely bonkers $6,000 Sunday. But a big gross number doesn't necessarily mean a big payday. Brad and Dave dig into the actual economics of exhibiting at one of the world's biggest conventions: booth fees, sales tax, travel, merchandise, lost studio time, and the advantages Dave has because he lives within driving distance of San Diego. After roughly $19,600 in gross sales, Dave estimates his actual profit at about $11,000. Then, they get into the stuff you can actually use at your next convention: Track your sales throughout the day When sales slow down, get active Use drawing as theater Pay attention to your product mix Think about revenue per square inch Let the market prune your merchandise Your merchandise should say something about the buyer — not about you SPONSORED BY HOGAN'S ALLEY This week's episode is sponsored by Hogan's Alley, the fantastic magazine devoted to comics history, cartoonists, and the art form we love.

Enterprise AI is moving beyond experimentation toward a harder question: where does it actually create measurable business value? In this episode of Technovation, Peter High speaks with Nikhil Narvekar, CIO and SVP of Global Business Services at Graphic Packaging Holding Company, about building an AI strategy around tangible outcomes. Narvekar explains how Graphic Packaging is applying AI to supply chain and logistics, reconsidering the need for a single ERP after 23 acquisitions and counting, and democratizing AI through fusion teams and employee training. Why Graphic Packaging took a cautious approach to enterprise AI How AI is helping optimize supply chain and logistics decisions Why a common data layer could change the ERP consolidation equation How fusion teams bring business and IT together around AI outcomes Why human domain knowledge remains essential as AI matures This episode is presented by ElevenLabs — Bringing technology to life.

Deb Cohen is an award winning investigative journalist and correspondent who trained as a physician and has worked with the BBC and BMJ. She just published BAD INFLUENCE, a book which takes us deep into the wellness-industrial complex—the confluence of the supplement, testing, tech, and pharma industries, and how they sell health anxiety to healthy people. Here are some of the points we discussed:—The big market in healthy, well people. Tests, wearables, imaging, supplements, etc—Algorithms feed the health anxiety in an amplifying, vicious loop on the social media platforms. When the algorithm knows you better than you.—The special qualities of influencers, likable, relatable, vulnerable, appearance as friends, certainty, cultivating parasocial relationships. “I understand you, I see you, I hear you.” Often with financial conflicts of interest. Plus hidden financial benefits. —The inverted pyramid of evidence and displacement of trust. Anecdotes believed and accepted as best evidence instead of rigorous randomized trials. A big flip, doctors losing trust to influencers and the sponsors of influencers. —The Nocebo effect of harm through expectations—The epidemic of neurologic tics during the pandemic traced back to TikTok, a viral contagion with 5.8 billion views (Figure made with Notebook LM)—Potential for regulation of patient/consumers/prosumer influencers —Celebrity influencers and the recent NEJM paper—Many ideas for how we can mitigate this mess (Graphic by Notebook LM)—Many illuminating patient examples: Femtech, silicon breast implant illness (BII), beta blocker experiment, a bogus bioresonance of hair test in a woman with GI symptoms, full-body MRI of brain lesions (transmitted to the patient by an automated message) that were a false positive.—The term “wellness”—Concierge physiciansThank you jojofinance, Vote Against Billionaires, Gretchen Faucett, Mary Powers, Jessica Coffman, and hundreds of others for tuning into my live video with Bad Influence!

Cartoonist Fran Sundblad, creator of Tiff & Eve, joins Brad for a wide-ranging conversation about creating character-driven comics, finding an audience on Reddit, and learning when not to chase the algorithm. Fran traces Tiff & Eve from its beginnings in her sketchbook to a comic that regularly reaches thousands of readers. She explains how Tiff and Eve represent two very different impulses — Tiff as the superego and Eve as the id — and shares a terrific character-development exercise: Lock your character in a room and ask what they do next. If you don't know the answer, you probably don't know the character well enough yet. Fran and Brad also talk about finding humor in the characters themselves rather than building every strip around a traditional punchline. That approach has helped Tiff & Eve explore Fran's experiences as a trans woman while remaining first and foremost a funny comic about two friends. In this episode: How Tiff & Eve grew out of Fran's sketchbook Writing two characters as opposing parts of your own personality Fran's “locked room” test for determining whether a character is fully developed Character-driven humor vs. setup/punchline comedy Using comedy to make personal experiences relatable What happens when readers interpret your comics differently than you intended Why Fran refuses to explain a joke Surviving hostile comments, Reddit Cares abuse, and the stranger side of online audiences Why cartoonists should post comics to their Reddit profile, not only to individual subreddits Learning the culture of each subreddit instead of treating Reddit as one giant audience Formatting comics differently for different communities — including designing images so Reddit's mobile crop doesn't hide important information Why fewer clicks usually means more readers The danger of chasing trends, politics, and viral Reddit “meta” events simply for upvotes Why a huge viral hit may produce surprisingly few new followers or Patreon supporters Why effort and artistic complexity don't necessarily translate into social-media success The value of clarity, brevity, and consistency on Reddit Knowing when a topical comic is nevertheless necessary because it's true to the characters Sunday Comix, a webcomic collective and email newsletter designed to help cartoonists reach readers without depending entirely on social-media algorithms Fran's experience offers an especially useful reminder for cartoonists trying to build an audience online: don't confuse attention with audience growth. A trendy comic might earn tens of thousands of upvotes, but the work that builds a lasting readership is the work that gives people a reason to come back for your characters.

Although we typically focus on the bright side of being independent cartoonists, a listener asks us to address the downside of webcomics. We'll talk about time management, burnout, financial insecurity, and reader interactions. Then we realize that all those drawbacks have one very important thing in common — and it's not what you'd expect! TODAY'S SHOW ComicLab gets someone engaged! The worst parts of being a webcartoonist. Creativity isn't always consistent. Success doesn't eliminate insecurity. The business work never disappears. Webcomics demand interaction. The drawbacks are the flip side of the benefits! Is the direct market disappearing? Grieve the comic-shop dream—and move forward. Getting outside your comfort zone. Comedy can strengthen dramatic storytelling. Beware the shiny object.

Cairo, in the winter season, when the wealthy of Europe come for the warmth and the ruins. A young woman falls under the spell of a scholar unlike any other — a man treated with strange deference by those who know him best, a man whose knowledge of the dead seems to run deeper than any book could teach. She will walk beside him through moonlit halls where the pharaohs sleep in glass cases, "A Professor of Egyptology" first appeared in The Graphic on 10 December 1904, and was collected that same year in Guy Boothby's volume The Lady of the Island. Boothby was an Australian-born novelist best known for his Dr Nikola thrillers, a writer of ferocious productivity who dictated up to six thousand words a day. He died suddenly in 1905, only months after this story appeared, at the age of thirty-seven. Search the archive here www.classicghost.com

Tyler Robinson's attorneys filed an objection to the prosecution's proposed Exhibit 4.1, a close-range color video with audio showing the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Prosecutors intended to introduce the video during a February 3, 2026, hearing on Robinson's motion to disqualify the Utah County Attorney's Office. The defense argued that the footage had no relevance to the actual issue before the court: whether a conflict of interest existed because a family member of someone on the prosecution team had reportedly witnessed the shooting at Utah Valley University. Robinson's lawyers said still photographs and diagrams already showed Kirk's position, the audience and the witness's alleged location, making the graphic video unnecessary under Utah's evidentiary rules.The defense also argued that publicly playing the footage during a televised hearing would create enormous unfair prejudice and threaten Robinson's constitutional right to an impartial jury in a capital case. His attorneys described the video as graphic, disturbing and likely to be immediately circulated nationally and internationally, further intensifying pretrial publicity surrounding the case. They also criticized media coverage that focused on close-up images of Robinson and speculation about his facial expressions or conversations with counsel. The filing asked Judge Tony F. Graf Jr. to exclude the video entirely, prevent it from being publicly displayed and, should the court admit it, keep it sealed until trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Tyler Robinson Court Filing, Jan. 27 | PDF | Relevance (Law) | Legal Procedure

Huda Smitshuijzen AbiFarès interviews Egyptian graphic designer Nora Aly. They start the conversation discussing her entry into the field of Graphic design and her studies and masters project at the German University in Cairo (GUC). They discuss her interest in Arabic lettering and typography that engage with language and help shape collective identity.       They discuss in detail her discovery of the Nubian culture in Egypt, its endangered language and script, and the revival of the Nubian script. Nora talks about her design research project for a Nubian stencil font, a henna tool kit, and a publication, and elaborates on the importance of publishing and developing creative tools that raise awareness on the topic and that contribute to the livelihood of women in the Nubian community in Egypt.       The conversation moves forward to address Nora's interest in exploring the Arabic script's structure and flexibility, manipulating the letterforms to create lettering that visualize meaning. She discusses as case study the Cairo Art Book Fair, and the ideas behind its dynamic logotype and visual identity. She then talks about her recent publication, "7 Years of Rejections," which embodies her belief in the importance of embracing rejections and documenting failed ideas and concepts. Nora stresses on the importance of publishing these work with explanations; she believes that they help advance the discourse on the challenges and imperfections of the creative process.       She voices her fears that in the future relying on AI might dilute the personality in the work of graphic designers. However, she hopes that this might also be a moment that will revive an appreciation for the handmade and for human labor. Nora closes the conversation with a recommendation to make "A note to ourselves to be truthful to our creative process."       Nora Aly is one the visual artists and graphic women featured in the book, Revealing Recording Reflecting: Graphic Women from Southwest Asia and North Africa (Amsterdam: Khatt Books, 2024).       @khattfoundation   @khatt_chronicles   @khatt_books   @nora_aly   www.khtt.net   www.khattbooks.com FOLLOW & RATE KHATT CHRONICLES:» Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/khatt-chronicles-stories-on-design-from-the-arab-world/id1472975206» Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3ATH0MwO1tIlBvQfahSLrB» Anghami: https://play.anghami.com/podcast/1014374489THIS SERIES IS PART OF THE AFIKRA PODCAST NETWORK Explore all episodes in this series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfYG40bwRKl5mMJ782dhW6yvfq0E0_HhAABOUT AFIKRAafikra | عفكرة is a movement to convert passive interest in the Arab world to active intellectual curiosity.

Patreon backers have access to an exclusive ComicLab Churn Rate spreadsheet — it does the math for you! Is your Patreon actually growing—or are new members disguising a retention problem? Brad walks Dave through the process of calculating churn rate and shows how one number can unlock a much clearer understanding of a membership business. They discuss subscriber retention, lifetime value, onboarding, well-timed interventions, and how to determine whether advertising or convention appearances are truly worth the investment. Then, Dave asks whether publishing a children's book page by page on his existing webcomic could finally help him finish it.

Tyler Robinson's attorneys filed an objection to the prosecution's proposed Exhibit 4.1, a close-range color video with audio showing the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Prosecutors intended to introduce the video during a February 3, 2026, hearing on Robinson's motion to disqualify the Utah County Attorney's Office. The defense argued that the footage had no relevance to the actual issue before the court: whether a conflict of interest existed because a family member of someone on the prosecution team had reportedly witnessed the shooting at Utah Valley University. Robinson's lawyers said still photographs and diagrams already showed Kirk's position, the audience and the witness's alleged location, making the graphic video unnecessary under Utah's evidentiary rules.The defense also argued that publicly playing the footage during a televised hearing would create enormous unfair prejudice and threaten Robinson's constitutional right to an impartial jury in a capital case. His attorneys described the video as graphic, disturbing and likely to be immediately circulated nationally and internationally, further intensifying pretrial publicity surrounding the case. They also criticized media coverage that focused on close-up images of Robinson and speculation about his facial expressions or conversations with counsel. The filing asked Judge Tony F. Graf Jr. to exclude the video entirely, prevent it from being publicly displayed and, should the court admit it, keep it sealed until trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Tyler Robinson Court Filing, Jan. 27 | PDF | Relevance (Law) | Legal ProcedureBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Helen reflects on her commitment to honesty in her graphic diaries and the responsibilities that come with featuring real people in personal storytelling.Together they explore how changes to routine can spark new creative possibilities, the challenges of navigating boundaries when art involves others, and how autistic values such as justice and honesty can shape the creative process.

Nurses testified about the medical treatment she received, her time on a ventilator, and her gradual recovery.Jurors also heard about Lindsay's behavior while in the ICU, including her confusion after being extubated, what doctors described as ICU delirium, her need for restraints while recovering, and her ability to follow commands and communicate through writing.The last witness before lunch was a psychiatrist who testified about discussions surrounding Lindsay's mental health history, and how she changed her healthcare proxy from Patrick Clancy to her parents.This testimony provided a detailed look at Lindsay's medical condition, the extent of her injuries, and her recovery during her hospitalization.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pretty-lies-and-alibis--4447192/support.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

With thousands of people having to re-take the DMV written test after a cheating scandal, we decided to take one on the air. The catch: whoever loses has to spend hours alone inside the DMV. How many hours, you say? One hour for every incorrect answer. It came down to two people in the end. There were tantrums, controversies, and a lot of debate on who the loser is. Johnny proved his idiocy is alive and well during Johnny Doesn't Know today when he was asked all Ocean-related questions. A question about how dolphins breathe resulted in Johnny doing a graphic impression of dolphin sex.

Yes, he had three of them in one week after Ally & Vanessa revamped his dating profile, and they've still received not one THANK YOU!

In this episode of Creative Becoming, Helen and Elizabeth explore how life's unexpected disruptions can become catalysts for creativity. Elizabeth shares her progress in quieting her inner critic and finding joy in drawing flowers, while Helen reflects on how her graphic art diaries became a lifeline during some of her most challenging experiences.Together they discuss how artists have used uncertainty, chance, and disruption as creative tools, and how adapting to unexpected circumstances can open new pathways for self-expression. The conversation also explores stimming, emotional regulation, and the ways creativity can help us navigate periods of change.In this episode:Creativity through disruption and changeArtists who embrace chance and unpredictabilityHelen's experience of creativity during a long hospital stayFinding creative space while away from homeTurning setbacks into new artistic opportunitiesUnderstanding stimming and emotional regulationResources and LinksHelen's graphic diary archive: https://arted.online/blog/diaries/Graphic diary template: https://arted.online/toolbox/resource-diary-template/The 10 Pillars of Autistic Culture: https://www.autisticculturepodcast.com/p/the-10-pillars-revisited-episodeInformation about stimming from the National Autistic Society: https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/about-autism/repeated-movements-and-behaviour-stimmingContact: creativebecomingpod@gmail.comSupportIf you are experiencing distress, please contact your GP or a relevant support service in your area.DisclaimerCreative Becoming is connected to Helen Shaddock's practice-based PhD, "Welcome to My Messy World": A practice-based, messy auto-ethnographic artistic exploration into multimedia storytelling as an integral method towards creative becoming.

What if you could turn a rough idea, a handful of inspiration images, or even a back-of-the-napkin sketch into a professional design or promotional video—in seconds rather than days?Today's AI design tools can help you create mood boards, photorealistic rooms, 3D objects, architectural visuals, marketing assets, product advertisements, and videos without mastering a long list of complicated creative platforms.The key is to stop treating AI as a one-off image generator. Instead, build repeatable workflows that move from inspiration to finished asset—while dramatically reducing the time, cost, and manual effort involved.In this episode of the Leveraging AI Podcast, Isar Meitis walks through practical AI-powered design workflows that can be applied far beyond interior design.Whether you need visuals for a website, presentation, brochure, proposal, product campaign, architectural project, or social media post, these methods can help you create more options and move from concept to execution faster.In this session, you'll discover:The difference between free 2D-to-3D tools and more detailed paid alternatives.How to move a 3D asset into tools such as SketchUp and create a photorealistic render.How to transform a collection of inspiration images into a professional mood board with ChatGPT.How to preserve a room's layout while changing its furniture, lighting, materials, and atmosphere.How Figma Weave can turn a manual creative process into a repeatable visual workflow.How to place products realistically into new environments with the correct angle, lighting, and shadows.How AI can generate multiple advertising concepts for the same product automatically.How these workflows can support web design, architecture, brochures, proposals, presentations, product marketing, and other business needs.About Leveraging AIThe Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/eventsIf you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

This week, Brad and Dave talk about the best business model for longform webcomics — and why putting your comic online for free is still the strongest way to build a sustainable career. Also: Kickstarter's late-pledge and pledge-manager tools, the difference between market research and mirror research, and how to keep going when your first posts get nothing but crickets. ON THIS WEEK'S SHOW... Dave's backyard skunk problem may or may not require Super Soakers What's the best business model for longform webcomics? Why fear of theft can stop creators from building an audience Why free-to-read comics remain the best foundation for a comics business “First comes the crowd, then comes the funding” Why readers who enjoy your work online are often first in line to buy the book How delayed access and early-access posts fit into a Patreon strategy Why exclusive side stories can work better than paywalling your main archive Avoiding physical rewards on Patreon and Substack Dave will be at San Diego Comic-Con booth 1228 with free ComicLab pins (use the super-easy mnemonic: 1BAT)  Kickstarter late pledges and Pledge Manager are bringing in real money Why charging shipping closer to fulfillment can be safer Market research vs. mirror research How to estimate Kickstarter shipping more accurately What to do when you start posting online and get “crickets” Why seven posts is not enough time to expect traction Reframing early work as building an archive for future fans Social-media advice for giving readers a reason to engage Why success in comics is a marathon, not a sprint You get great rewards when you join the ComicLab Community on Patreon$2 — Early access to episodes$5 — Submit a question for possible use on the show AND get the exclusive ProTips podcast.

Seth and Criss get petty and hear others being petty in the PettyCast. Today they hear UFC Commissioner Dana White criticizing his production staff over putting up the wrong graphic when they showed Shakur Stevenson, Dan Patrick being petty that the WNBA Commissioner no-showed him for an interview, and Patriots fans petty that they think it may be Tom Brady who leaked some "tells" to the Seahawks ahead of the Super Bowl.

Dave Kellett returns from his first-ever college reunion with a full heart — and a renewed appreciation for old friends, running jokes, and the occasional listener washing dishes through the cold open. From there, Brad and Dave dig into one of the trickiest parts of writing comics: how much work should the reader have to do to “get” the punchline? Using Brad's motorcycle-jump-over-a-ravine metaphor, they discuss why wider joke “canyons” can create bigger laughs, why shorter jumps can feel merely “technically funny,” and why the best cartoonists learn how to build strong launching ramps while understanding that every reader brings a different landing ramp. Also in this episode: How to show music in a silent medium, why semi-realistic comics should still embrace comics iconography, a quick San Diego Comic-Con update, Bluesky's expanded image carousel, and why obsessing over analytics can become a form of creative procrastination. Topics covered in this episode include: Writing punchlines that require inference from the reader Brad's “motorcycle jumping a ravine” metaphor for humor Why wider joke gaps can produce bigger laughs The difference between “funny” and “technically funny” Why some jokes land for one reader and miss for another How audience literacy, life experience, and context affect comedy Why “it took me a second” can be a feature, not a bug The danger of making every joke too obvious Why memorable comics often take bigger comedic swings Why being someone's “top three cartoonist” matters more than broad mild approval The difference between newspaper-era comics and webcomics-era audience building Dave's San Diego Comic-Con booth update The free ComicLab pin for listeners at Booth 1228 Bluesky expanding post image limits from 4 images to 10 How the new Bluesky carousel can help sequential artists How to communicate piano music in comics Why floating music notes are not “too cartoony” for semi-realistic comics Using established comics iconography instead of reinventing the wheel Why comics can suggest music but rarely reproduce the experience of music How manga and anime use visual language more freely Using musical notation as a visual “spice,” not the whole dish Why analytics can become creative avoidance Whether it matters how quickly a comic reaches its maximum views Why “magic number” thinking can distract from improving the next comic Why creators should spend less time dusting bookcases and more time making better comics What's better? A simple gag or one that requires the audience to think? UPDATE: Comic-Con International booth 1228 Update: Bluesky update... 10 images per post!
