I have been doing a lot of research on the makings of a comic book lately and I'm really impressed with what it takes. I always thought that you just come up with a character, sketch it, then paint it and wham!, there you are. Boy, was I wrong!
These days computer "inking" or "coloring" is all the rage. Artists will take Photoshop and do really complicated techniques just to create one page of a comic book.
My hat's off to you comic illustrators out there!
