With both Brad and Dave nominated for awards this year, the guys spiral into a surprisingly deep conversation about awards, marketing, ego, and whether creators should plaster “award nominee” stickers all over their books. Later, they tackle a listener question about using 3D models, digital sets, and reference material in comics production — leading to a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at how both creators actually build comics pages in tools like Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop. Along the way, they discuss why imperfections matter in cartooning, how typography affects visual storytelling, and why “cheating” is often just another word for “working smarter.” Today's Show Should you put an award nomination on a book cover?

Tímár Áronnal és Orsós Lajossal beszélgettünk a a Szavazat ára c. filmről és a De! Akcióközösségről. 00:00:24 Melyik volt előbb: a Szavazat ára vagy a De! Akcióközösség? 00:01:45 Hónapokig egy betűt sem írtak le, aztán hirtelen megtáltosodtak. 00:02:37 A „szavazatvásárlás” kifejezés arra utal, mintha egyenrangú felek lennének a gépezetben. Pedig ez egyáltalán nem így van. 00:02:58 Az elcsalt szavazat csak a végállomás egy kizsákmányolásra épülő rendszerben. 00:03:54 A szavazatvásárlás nem cigánykérdés, hanem kiszolgáltatottsági kérdés. Jó példa erre Nyírbogát, ahol alig élnek romák, a település mégis a választási csalások orvosi lova lett a kampányban. 00:05:57 Az empátia, a megértés és a folyamatos jelenlét volt a kulcs azokhoz, akiknek kevés a vesztenivalójuk. 00:11:27 „Ha most el lehet sétálni több százezer bezsákolt szavazattal, akkor itt a vége.” 00:14:06 Szabó Bence, Pálinkás Szilveszter és a hétköznapi hősök esete. 00:15:01 A cigarettacsempésztől a drogdíleren át a polgármesterig – a szavazatvásárló gépezet azokra számít, akiknek kiterjedt hálózata van. 00:16:12 A Városi Civil Alap támogatásai ötvenmilliós nagyságrendekben látták el az egyéni kerületeket a választások előtt. A szavazatvásárlók sporttáskában, kisteherautóban hozták a csomagokat. De honnan volt a pénz? 00:18:30 A kormányzati akarattal gyorsan jöhetnének az eredmények is. 00:20:07 A rendszer a megfélemlítésre gyúrt: droggal, alkohollal, gyerekkel, munkával zsaroltak. 00:24:12 Sztorik, amik kimaradtak a filmből – nem véletlenül. 00:28:52 „Azt mondta, annyira utálja őket, hogy bevállalja arccal. Majd amikor hazaért, már kitette a Facebookra is. Két napon belül meglátogatták.” 00:33:22 Kellett egy saját hálózat. Több ezer önkéntes, Last Days of Rendszerváltás – avagy így lettek az őrszemek. 00:40:24 A vámpírok nem szeretik a napfényt. 00:41:39 Dombrádon is komolyan vették a „vendéglátást”. 00:48:55 Tizennyolc évig volt az RTL riportere, de ilyet még ő sem csinált. 00:54:16 A független sajtónak is nagy szerepe volt a tömeges választási csalás visszaszorításában. 00:58:41 „Egy nagy »de!« után kiált ez az ország.” 01:03:15 „Az, hogy jelenleg ugyanaz a büntetési tétel, ha valaki ötezer forintot elfogad egy szavazatért, mintha valaki milliárdokért megszervezi ezt az egészet, mindent elmond arról, hogy kinek az érdekében írták a törvényeket.”

A listener asks whether some words are inherently funnier than others—and it opens the door to a deep dive on word choice, dialogue, and how to make jokes land harder. Brad and Dave break down why shorter, punchier words tend to win, how sound and rhythm affect comedy, and why you should always end on the funniest word. They also walk through their real-world writing process—cutting aggressively, reading dialogue out loud, and constantly swapping in better word choices. From there, the conversation expands into how to write strong dialogue (hint: it's not about realism—it's about impact), plus a list of pitfalls to avoid, including gimmicky accents, overstuffed word balloons, and writing that slows the reader down. They also revisit a past take on political cartoons (turns out, they're thriving on Reddit), talk about the return of Web 1.0 strategies like guest comics, and reinforce a core principle: own your platform and your audience. TODAY'S SHOW • Writing funny words: Why word choice makes or breaks a joke • Psychologist vs. psychiatrist — choosing the funnier word (it's "shrink") • How to edit your way to stronger, tighter dialogue • Dialogue pitfalls: accents, gimmicks, and readability traps • Political cartoons are thriving on Reddit (and what that means) • The return of Web 1.0 tactics: Guest comics and cross-promotion • Reclaiming your platform: Why websites still matter 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.

This episode examines a Bluesky thread where cartoonists self-reported their financial realities. While the original question was thoughtful — seeking insight into full-time and part-time comic careers — the resulting discussion revealed a common problem: an echo chamber of discouragement. Brad and Dave emphasize that these threads often skew negative due to self-selection bias. Many successful creators don't participate—either because they're busy, uncomfortable sharing income, or wary of backlash. The result? A distorted picture where it appears that no one is succeeding, even though many are.

PLUS — CONGRATULATIONS TO DAVE KELLETT FOR HIS HUGO AWARD NOMINATION! TOPICS Dave Kellett has been nominated for a Hugo Award How much to share with an eager audience ComicLab Confab (609) DRY-ELB-0 Update: USPS fuel surcharge will *not* affect Media Mail prices New tariff worries NCS conference and Reuben Awards Aug. 6-8, Columbus, Ohio Different ways to present a scene A listener question leads into the episode's central topic: what to do when a new project suddenly starts attracting attention and readers begin asking lore questions faster than the story can answer them. Brad and Dave frame this as the best possible problem for a storyteller to have — not a crisis, but proof that the story is working. Their advice is to resist the urge to dump exposition too early, and instead use reader curiosity as fuel to keep them engaged and coming back for more. Another listener question asks how to make necessary exposition more entertaining in a history comic, and the hosts widen that into a general storytelling discussion. They explore how to handle “problem panels” — moments where important information must be conveyed, but the raw facts feel static or dull. Their answer is that exposition does not need to be delivered plainly: creators can change the point of view, alter the tone, insert found documents, frame facts through action, or even break into totally different storytelling modes if it makes the comic more engaging. The episode also includes a couple of business updates for cartoonists. Brad shares good news about USPS fuel surcharges not applying to Media Mail, which matters for creators shipping books, while Dave warns that new tariffs may affect imported book shipments and advises cartoonists to build more buffer into Kickstarter budgets for 2026. It's a practical reminder that making comics also means staying alert to the changing realities of fulfillment and production costs.

Introducing Dr. Reginald Wigglesby Splash Pages Brad and Dave take a deep dive into splash pages — what they are, how they've traditionally been used, and how they function differently in print versus webcomics. They discuss classic first-page splash images as attention-grabbing devices, as well as the practical reality that they can help creators hit deadlines. Dave shares how he uses splash pages sparingly in Drive to give big moments room to breathe, while Brad explains how he uses them consistently at the start of chapters in Evil Inc, both as storytelling tools and promotional assets. The conversation also explores why two-page splash spreads can struggle online — especially on mobile — and reinforces a key principle: a graphic novel page is not the same as a webcomic update, and each must be designed with its medium in mind.

This will impact many shipping rates for creators who sell physical goods, though Media Mail remains unaffected. For cartoonists running Kickstarters, online stores, or Patreon rewards, this is a reminder to factor rising shipping costs into pricing and planning. https://about.usps.com/newsroom/national-releases/2026/0325-usps-announces-transportation-related-time-limited-price-change.htm Editorial Cartoonists on Social Media The conversation touches on how editorial cartoonists are navigating social media — including the challenges of visibility, audience building, and platform changes. Brad and Dave reflect on how shifting algorithms and audience behavior can affect political and commentary-based comics, and what that means for creators trying to get their work seen. What's the Deal with Susan MacTaggart? In a classic ComicLab aside, Brad and Dave riff on the mysterious (and confusing) name “Susan MacTaggart,” using it as an example of how something presented without context can create intrigue — or just bewilderment. It ties back humorously to their broader discussions about clarity, audience expectations, and grabbing attention. Introducing Dr. Reginald Wigglesby The episode also features the introduction of Dr. Reginald Wigglesby — a comedic bit that adds to the show's ongoing tradition of playful world-building and running gags. It's a reminder that even in a craft-focused podcast, humor and character bits are part of what makes ComicLab feel like hanging out with friends.

Pion István korán kezdte a versírást, első verseskötete, az Atlasz bírja 2013-ban jelent meg, tizenhárom évvel később a Jelenkor Kiadónál megjelent első regénye, A Búbánat-völgyön át, amiben egy felnövéstörténeten keresztül beszéli el, milyen abúzust szenvedett el gyerekkorában, majd később az egyházi iskolában egy atya által, aki visszaélt hatalmával. Beszélgettünk az iskolai közösségek működéséről, az áldozati szerepről, a megírás nehézségeiről A beszélgetés témái: 13 éve jelent meg az Atlasz bírja verseskötete Mi Pion eredet- és családtörténete? Letkésről indulva Esztergomon át Mióta akar a nyilvánossághoz beszélni?  A cselekvő ige szerepe Pion életében Hogyan olvassuk a regényt? Önéletrajz? Fikció? 2021-ben a nyilvánosság elé állt történetével: nehéz volt, felborult a világ Egy atya visszaélt a hatalmáról: nevet adni a dolognak, ami addig nem létezett A gyerekkori erőszakról Az iskolai zárt közösségék szerepe a felnövésében Az egyházi reakciók Mi segített megtalálni, hogyan kell elbeszélni a történetet? Mi a fontosabb a regény megjelenésében: a személyes történet elbeszélése vagy a társadalmi tétje? Mi az, amitől egy áldozat cselekvővé válik?

In this episode of ComicLab, Brad and Dave tackle a surprisingly practical question: How do you start a web ring for comics creators? With social media platforms becoming less reliable for discovery, the classic web ring is making a comeback as a way for creators to promote each other directly. Along the way, the guys discuss audience targeting, technical setup, and why the success of a web ring depends more on community alignment than on code. Plus: tattoo debates, Tolkien romance arguments, and the eternal challenge of drawing the right amount of detail in your comics.  Key  topics How to start a web ring UPDATE: Dave should read Tolkein as a romance How much detail should we include in our drawings?

What's the difference between a concept and a conceit — and why does confusing the two quietly sabotage so many comics? In this episode, Brad and Dave break down one of the most important (and misunderstood) distinctions in storytelling. A concept is the engine that drives your story forward. A conceit is a clever wrapper that might look great… but doesn't go anywhere. If you've ever launched a comic that felt strong at first but ran out of momentum, this conversation will hit home. We talk about: Why constraints actually fuel creativity How to test whether your idea has real staying power The danger of building a comic around a gimmick And how to strengthen your story before you spend months drawing it Today's show: A comic without recurring characters UPDATE: ComicLab accent challenge UPDATE: Amazon Advantage UPDATE: DoubleDogBook.com How to do a sarcastic word balloon Takeaways Character design plays a crucial role in storytelling. Comics can thrive without a central protagonist. Idea-driven comics have historical precedence. Naming a comic can be a challenging but essential task. Feedback is vital in the creative process. Constraints can enhance creativity and focus. Monosyllabic titles are often more memorable. A good title can significantly impact a comic's success. The creative journey involves trial and error. Sharing ideas at smaller levels can reveal what resonates. Avoiding sunk cost fallacy is crucial in decision-making. Amazon Advantage can lead to unexpected losses. Understanding the costs of shipping is essential for profitability. Sarcasm in comics requires careful visual and textual cues. Bold lettering can enhance the impact of sarcasm. Walt Kelly's techniques in lettering were innovative but sometimes excessive. Comic creators should consider the visual presentation of dialogue. A well-crafted word balloon can convey emotion effectively. The legacy of past cartoonists informs current practices.

Here's what we cover: How most colorists actually break in (hint: it's not by “murdering another colorist in single combat” — though that was discussed) What “flatting” is — and why it's often your first step into paid coloring work Why networking is really just “being friends with cartoonists” Portfolio strategy: Why saying “I do everything” is less effective than saying “I do this brilliantly” Analog coloring techniques — watercolor paper, oil-based pencils, and why certain materials go extinct at the worst possible moment The realities of scanning physical art (and why scanners are basically cameras on an arm) How to handle black plates, rich black, and avoiding fuzzy type in print If you've ever wondered whether coloring could be an income stream for you — or how to level up your current process — this episode is a masterclass.

After that the way, they tackle some big (and surprisingly relatable) topics:Are they actually going to use Patreon Quips?Dave's Bad 2025 — what went wrong, what he learned, and why it mattersWhy you never stop building an audience, even when things feel “established”And yes… being scared of Reddit comments is universal!SummaryIn this episode of Comic Lab, hosts Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar dive into the nature of humor in comics, prompted by a listener's question about whether funny comics truly elicit laughter or if they are simply enjoyable. Brad and Dave explore the subjective nature of humor, sharing their own experiences with laughter and recognition of craft in comedy. Next, they delve into the ongoing journey of building and maintaining an audience in the ever-evolving landscape of comics. They emphasize that there is no such thing as a 'built audience.'

Brad and Dave share personal anecdotes about dealing with trolls and the importance of focusing on the positive aspects of audience engagement. They conclude by reinforcing the idea that the creative journey is ongoing, and that every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.Takeaways"Not every year is going to be gangbusters."There's no such thing as a built audience; you're always in building mode.Audience engagement is like the Ship of Theseus; it's constantly changing.You should aim to gain 2-6% new audience every month to replace those who leave.Negative comments often come from unhappy individuals; don't take them personally.Every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.

What does it really mean when someone looks at your career and says, “You should be doing more”?In this episode of ComicLab, Brad and Dave respond to a pointed listener question that cuts straight to the bone: If they have the skills, the experience, and the ideas — why haven't they launched even more projects? The answer isn't defensive or dismissive. Instead, it becomes a clear-eyed breakdown of creative bandwidth, sustainability, work-life balance, and the invisible labor that propels up a long-term comics career. From Patreon and newsletters to storefronts, commissions, podcasts, and family responsibilities, they unpack why “doing enough” is often misunderstood from the outside — and why restraint can be a strategic choice, not a lack of ambition.The conversation then pivots to one of the trickiest problems any humor writer faces: How to judge your own work when readers don't get the joke. How many confused comments are just statistical noise—and when do they signal a real problem in execution? Brad and Dave dig into the uncomfortable middle ground between ego and humility, exploring how to listen to feedback without letting it derail your voice, and how to improve clarity without sanding off what makes your work distinctive. It's a nuanced, experience-earned discussion about ramps, chasms, audience expectations, and why “it happens to everyone” is not an excuse — but also not a death sentence.If you've ever felt pressure to produce more, or struggled to decide whether reader confusion is a warning sign or just the cost of taking creative risks, this episode offers hard-earned perspective from two cartoonists who've been navigating those exact questions for decades.TakeawaysCreative projects often take a backseat due to time constraints.Cartoonists manage a heavy workload that includes multiple projects.Balancing creativity with administrative tasks is crucial for success.Feedback from readers can help improve comic writing.Self-editing is a continuous process for comic creators.Reader confusion can indicate a need for better communication in comics.Communication is key in the artistic process.     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.

Cy’s Wishes you all a Merry Christmas and shares some updates at Catholic Answers.

Cy Kellett, host of Catholic Answers Live, joins the Catholic Man Show for a wide-ranging and surprisingly practical conversation on evangelization. If the idea of “sharing your faith” makes you uncomfortable, intimidated, or quietly guilty, this episode is for you.The guys talk about why evangelization feels scary for normal Catholics in the pews, why it is not optional, and why God never asked you to be effective. He only asked you to be faithful. Cy explains why pressure to “get results” is misplaced, how discouragement is the devil's favorite weapon against evangelists, and why introverts might actually be better at sharing the Gospel than extroverts.They also dig into what the Gospel actually is, why “God loves you” is true but incomplete, and how the full Christian story speaks directly to the modern world's confusion about meaning, identity, and purpose. From street evangelization to talking with adult children who have drifted from the faith, Cy offers clarity, encouragement, and concrete advice rooted in real experience.This is an episode about integrity, prayer, the sacraments, and learning how to talk about Jesus in a way that is honest, human, and real.In this episode:Why evangelization feels intimidating for ordinary CatholicsWhy you are not called to be effective, only faithfulHow discouragement shuts down evangelizationThe difference between proclamation and debateWhy introverts can be excellent evangelistsWhat the Gospel actually is, beyond “God loves you”How modern culture misunderstands science and human dignityWhy evangelization always includes words, not just exampleThe role of prayer and the Eucharist in sustaining evangelistsWhy the goal is winning souls, not argumentsCy's new book, How to Talk About Jesus with AnybodyGuest:Cy Kellett, host of Catholic Answers Live and co-author of How to Talk About Jesus with AnybodyBook mentioned:How to Talk About Jesus with Anybody by Steve Dawson with Cy Kellett
