Thank you, Scott McCloud!

And not only for your flattering blog post. I just checked my copy of 'Understanding Comics' to make sure that it really was 16 years ago, when I started to draw my first comics and sold them on the schoolyard and your fantastic book about the art and craft of making comics led me the way. Your Zot! Online Comics inspired me to use the infinite canvas for The Wormworld Saga and reading 'Reinventing Comics' acquainted me with the idea, to turn to the internet on the search for readers and not to publishers in the first place.

For all that: thank you!

    Oh, that's no secret. But I don't know if it's of any use to you since it is a German company. Here's the link: http://www.stelog.de/

  7. Hello there! I've been living in Germany for a while, but it took Scott to finally find a German comic artist that picked my interest.
    I'll follow your work!
