This is really strong and provocative from Derek, as always. Coincides (unsurprisingly) with a lot I've been thinking about, how a career in comics is really an impossibility now for all but a few, and how the things that made life as an artist possible have all been eroded in this century.

Some of the crazy comments on Alex Graham's strip were like "a rising tide lifts all boats!" and "we support each other, there's room for everyone!" Very obviously untrue; "comics" is a shrinking liferaft, that's why the fighting is so nasty.

I love the art form of comics, but the “comics world” is extremely toxic, and it’s quite obvious there’s no place in it for me or a lot of other artists who have spent their lives making comics.

Oh also- I think the aesthetic backlash against CGI will retroactively make a lot of poorer-quality* CGI no longer acceptable. *which is nearly all of it

I don't actually find the "AI art versus hand-made-art" debate to be interesting at all. The thing is, the more defined and refined the AI "look" becomes, the more aesthetically limited it is, and the faster the eye loses interest in it. People get tired of a "look."
