Step: Brainstorm
***Warning: This post is fairly long! I tried to be as detailed as possible in my explanations.
The first thing youâll need for any webcomic is a story. This means coming up with an interesting, unique, and fun story. Itâs okay to start with basic, possibly even cliche ideas, so long as you later refine them into more unique concepts. But to start off, any ideas you think up, write emâ down!
Circle, highlight, or mark ones that stand out to you for later comparison. Once youâre down to maybe five potential stories (or less), either write out - or think out - a possible plot for each. This is the perfect time to weed out ideas that you donât really like, as once youâre actually having to write a story for the plots, it becomes clear whether the story is good material to move on, or if youâll need to pick another. Cross out (whether mentally or literally) any ideas you donât like. If you have no interest in the story, your readers wonât either - trust me. Donât force yourself to like any of the ideas.
If you donât like any of the ideas: Trash emâ and start from the beginning. Brainstorm different possibilities than the first batch, or see if some of your initial ideas can be changed around somehow to have a different goal/challenge.Â
If you like multiple ideas: Try and pick one that is your favorite, and use the others as mini-plots/concepts to include in your webcomic. No one says you have to only keep one, especially if there is a logical way that they can be combined. This often leads to a more unique and interesting story, which is exactly what you want! If they donât make sense together, find the idea that is the most flexible. When writing, some artists find that the story takes an unexpected turn, for the better! Choose the plot that has the most room for this to happen without completely abandoning the storyline.

My point is, I understand that Lotorâs screaming breakdown in S6 is supposed to alienate us from him and make us think heâs irrationally unhinged and thus side with the paladins. But as someone who has had an irrational unacceptable screaming breakdown, and who has spent time in therapy addressing it and working with psychiatrists and therapists to get to an appropriate mental state? I just go âmood, Iâve been thereâ and want to get Lotor some proper mental health care. Screaming primal breakdowns require HELP, not execution. Iâm glad no one killed me when I was irrationally freaking out! Iâm glad I got talked into the ambulance and had access to mental health services rather than being gunned down! Sure, I was never violent at my Bad Times, but Iâm also a real person working with everyday real life circumstances. Lotor is a fantasy character working with fantasy circumstances that have much higher stakes.
So like⌠Lotor is still the most relateable character I have ever encountered, in part because I can relate to his screaming breakdown. It was horrible. It was unacceptable. It hurt to watch. But as someone who has had a horrific screaming breakdown, I GET it, I got therapy to get past it and be better and Lotor⌠never got that chance. Heâs me in an even worse situation, unmedicated and without help or support or therapy, screaming his pain and doing his best to help with no guidance, fucking things up with no support or anything to rein him in and help him. I get it. Itâs too raw and real for me, but I GET IT.
Idk, this post is messy and unrefined (like Lotor, and like myself when Iâm not in treatment for my mental health). But I just⌠in Lotor, I see a good person who is struggling and fucking up, but trying to be good, even when overwhelmed, and damn thatâs relateable!

Humans are adorable.
Supporting evidence:
1. Humans say âowâ, even if they havenât actually been hurt. Itâs just a thing they say when they think they might have been hurt, but arenât sure yet.
2. Humans collect shiny things and decorate their bodies and nests with them. The shinier the better, although each individual has a unique taste for style and colouring
3. Humans are not an aquatic or even amphibious species, but they flock to bodies of water simply to play in it. They canât even hold their breath all that long; they just love to splash!
4. When night falls and the sky goes dark, humans become drowsy and begin to cocoon themselves in soft, fluffy bedding.
5. Some humans spend time in each otherâs nests! Just for fun! Itâs not their nest; theyâre just visiting each other.
6. Some humans use pigments and dyes to make their bodies flashy and colourful! They even attach shiny dangly bits to their cartalidgous membranes!
7. Humans are very clever, and sometimes adopt creatures from other species into their family units. They donât seem to notice the obvious differences, and often raise them alongside their own young!
8. If a human sees another creature in distress, they can commonly be observed trying to help! Even at their own risk, most humans are deeply compassionate creatures!
9. If a human hears a particularity catchy sound or tune, it will often mimic it, even to the point of annoying themselves!
10. Sneezes are entirely involuntary, and completely adorable. Especially when the human in question becomes frustrated
11. Humans love treats!!! Some more than others. Many humans will save these treats specifically for a later date when they are in need of comfort or reassurance. IE, pickles, pop tarts, Popsicles, etc
12. Theyâre learning to travel in space!!! They canât get very far, but theyâre trying!!! So far, theyâve made it to the end of their yard, and have found rocks

Yes. Yes he is.
Hell yeah!

STORE UPDATE!! Link in my bio (or go to nymika.bigcartel.com)
My new charms arrived the other day and theyâre beautiful! Iâve uploaded a LIMITED AMOUNT of the Spiderverse set as well as some others to my online store, so go check it out! Iâve only made a small amount of each design available, since Comicon is coming up; I hope you find something you like đ Thank you for your support!! đđ
(please reblog to spread the word!)
@leakinghate If youâre collecting evidence of Dreamworkâs last-minute, slap-job editing, hereâs another piece of evidence. In âThe Zenith,â we have this brief scene where Pidge, Keith, and Lance are trying to hold off Honervaâs fused ship while they wait for Allura and Hunk to catch up to them since Hunk went to go get crystals from a Balmera and Allura is the only one who can create wormholes. We get this shot with the green, black, and blue lions, but less than a second later, Keith tells Allura to go get in her lion. Unless Lance is suddenly piloting Blue again, Allura was supposed to be with them already. What happened?
When I first saw this scene, I thought it was just an animation error, but itâs very possible that it could be a mistake that slipped through in the massive, last minute edits. Â
Storming the Pyramid: The Second Missing Sequence in VLD Season 8
@leakinghate Our second missing episodeâŚ
The Source: Missing Scene Fragment
Location: Knights of Light Part 2: Lotorâs âcorpseâ is shown but we see no reaction from Allura and Voltron because that part of the narrative has been cut. Allura and Voltron discover Lotor is melded with Sincline and Allura determines to extract him. This drives the plot toward Storming the Pyramid.
Storming the Pyramid: Missing Sequence
Location in the narrative: Around Episode 11, sequentially between the reveal of Lotorâs body in Sincline during Episode 10 and the âcome back to meâ hospital scene.
Summary: Allura storms the pyramid where she finds Lotorâs body and does battle with the witch for the soul of her son.
Narrative Structure:
âWeâll do anything to bring back Lotor,â said in Episode 2 plus Honervaâs appearance just before Allura takes in the Dark Entity (she is the last person seen, therefore the âman behind the curtainâ) leads us to this point in the narrative. Honerva sent the Dark Entity because Honerva cannot resurrect her son but Allura, a healer, can.
Heroineâs Journey: Reincorporation of and Healing the Wounded Masculine
The heroine makes peace with the âmasculineâ approach to the world as it relates to her and reclaims her own masculine power. The heroine must also put aside her misperceptions about the masculine and offer love and compassion to that which appears monstrous. Allura repeatedly rebuffs Coranâs, Alforâs, and Lanceâs statements of disappointment in her choice to take in the dark entity and their concerns that what she is doing is âtoo dangerousâ. She states unequivocally that she âwill not be afraid to use the power that she hasâ, calling directly back to her animusâs repeated statements that he âknows she has the power withinâ and that she has âall the power in the universe at her fingertipsâ in Seasons 5 and 6, respectively. She heals the prince with her love and compassion.
Jungian Analysis:
The animus, Alluraâs (Ro)beastly dark youth counterpart and masculine half Lotor, is recognized and accepted as part of herself. This is highlighted with Alluraâs callback to his lines about not fearing to use her power. She heals the animus with her feminine love and compassion.
Freudian Analysis: Tell Me About Your Mother
Freudâs theory about a boy coming into manhood is known as the Oedipal Complex. Freud stated that all boys inherently desire their mother (I know, gross, just hang with me here) and therefore view their father as a threat who must be killed so that the boy can replace him. However, the boy cannot grow into manhood until he puts aside his feelings of fatherly hatred and learns how to project his desire for his mother onto appropriate women.
Lotor has done away with Zarkon and moved into a healthy desire for Allura by Season 8. His coming of age is driven forward when Allura does battle with Honerva, who still wants to keep her son as a possession, to break the spell she has cast over him.
Other Literary Examples:
In Beauty and the Beast, Belle realizes she loves the Beast after his death. She declares her love, and her tears bring him back to life, breaking the fairyâs spell and revealing the Prince in disguise.
In The Hunger Games, Katniss is finally able to break the spell of the brainwashing President Snow inflicted on Peeta with a kiss, telling him âdonât let him take you from me⌠stay with me.â Peeta responds, âAlwaysâ and gradually again becomes the sweet baker boy.
In The Nutcracker, Clara distracts the Rat King so that the Nutcracker can land a fatal blow, breaking the spell and transforming the Nutcracker into the Prince of the Land of Sweets (sweets and decadent food in general are a common literary stand-in for sex and sensuality).
Other items I would expect to see in this sequence based on literary convention and narrative cohesion:
Allura arrives and heals Lotor, who is still under Honervaâs control. This is the place for our alchemist versus alchemist reprisal set up by Allura and Honervaâs initial meeting.
Some version of âYou may be the Emperor, but I am your mother and you will do as I sayâ connects this episode thematically with lines said in Episode 2, âYou may be the Prince but I am the Emperor and you will do as I sayâ and âYou may be the High Priestess but I am the Prince and you will do as I say.â This leads to a âmy love is stronger than your powerâ moment, connecting VLD thematically with DotU.
Given the strong Egyptian motif present, throughout the series, I would expect a strong allusion to the Isis and Osiris myth.
I would expect Lotorâs resurrection and âmy love is stronger than your powerâ moment to culminate with a powerful iteration of his musical leitmotif we have frequently heard throughout the season.
Creating Likeable Characters
Sometimes itâs difficult to make your characters likeable as they are tested and are pushed to further and further lengths. Sometimes they have to make hard decisions, and sometimes the pressure gets to them and they mess up, hurt another character or an innocent bystander. How can you keep them likeable throughout the whole plotline?
- Keep their motivations pure. It almost always comes back to the heart â if their heart is pure, and thatâs established early-on, the audience is more likely to root for them.
- Give them flaws â make them human. Not every character has to have some huge problem, like an addiction or a traumatic past or a disability â if your entire cast does, itâs no problem, but itâs not necessary. But every character has to have some flaw(s), whether itâs cheating at card games because he canât stand to lose or being too-closed minded or closing off when she gets too emotional. If your character doesnât have a flaw, they start to come off as too perfect, too angelic, pretentious.
- Give them permission to mess up. This ties in with flaws â if your character is inclined to make a bad decision at any point in the plot, donât steer him away from it because âoh no heâs my protagonist and he must be Good and Whole and Pure and All-Knowingâ. Let him walk into that ambush despite the sick feeling in his stomach and get half his army killed; let her rush into a confrontation with a bully and get into a fight with another girl who has a switchblade. Let your characters mess up â it shows that theyâre human.
- But if your character messes up, let them own up to it eventually. The general who killed half his army by ignoring the unease in the back of his mind might cry over their makeshift graves long after the rest of the platoon is asleep; the girl sitting in the infirmary might feel remorse for knocking her opponentâs block off. Or your characters might argue and might be stubborn and might not apologize for weeks. But let them apologize eventually. This goes back to the heart, and what the character knows is right.
- Relationships with other characters are vital. Thatâs not to say a loner character canât be likeable â but the audienceâs perception of a loner character is determined by the thoughts/words of other characters. Characters all color each other and define parts of each other, just like people do to each other in real life. If your character is a jerk to other characters and other characters donât like him (especially if the characters who dislike him are likeable), the audience wonât like him either. The characterâs image depends not just on himself, but on his supporting cast.
Hope this helps! - @authors-haven
Hey, I've been wanting to make a webcomic of my own for a while now. Do you have any advice? Thanks! (also I absolutely love Skybox, and it inspired me to get back to work on my ideas for a webcomic)
My advice is: once you feel like youâve got enough of the story and characters worked out to begin, just start in on it! If you get too mired in the planning stage, actually starting the work becomes harder. The characters are going to change slightly the more you draw them, but thatâs normal, so donât worry too much about that. That said, it does help to do basic initial planning ahead of time: model sheets and expression sheets, layouts for locations, and color palettes if you use those. Just enough to get you comfortable for the actual pages.Â
Itâs a good idea to create a buffer for yourself once you start and before you actually start posting, and to try and maintain that buffer for as long as you can. Real life happens to everyone, and you never know when something will come up where you donât get much chance to work on your comic for a week or so. The more you have done ahead of time, the less you have to worry about when Real Life comes to kick you in the shins.Â
Itâs also a good idea to do a good number of pages/strips/panels/whathaveyou to judge ahead of time about how long it takes you to do one update. That way it lets you estimate how much time you can devote to working on it weekly. You may find that you canât include color like you thought, or that you have to cut stuff that you found fun but isnât really essential. But youâll figure it out once you get into the habit of it.Â
Good luck!

Advice for New Comic Creators
This is something I wrote up for a friend who wanted to start a comic, which I thought might be helpful for others? Iâm no expert by any stretch but I have done a lot of research into both artistic endeavours generally as well as comic creation and history specifically, and I think (hope) these points are all helpful and salient things to remember when creating a webcomic. I learned all of these through experience (both positive and negative) so hopefully this will help some people avoid my mistakes.
Several of these tips apply to art in general, or even any creative process in general, but some of them are comic-specific.

STEP: Character Development
How you develop your characters is a factor that can make or break your webcomic. You must have characters whom readers not only can relate to in some way, but who are also human and have flaws, strengths, personalities and who are believable. This isnât to say that you should throw your slightly over-powered superhero out the window, but understand that those kinds of characters rarely resonate with the average reader.
Letâs dig a little deeper:
