So, I have finished my first comic book script and was curious about next steps. Starting a comic company and writing comics is all still new to me, so any guidance & leadership is welcomed. Currently, I am working on a new comic hero named Bishop. The series may be a 5-part (depending on how the writing goes. It's all a work in progress, so I'm taking my time with the steps to get the comic to print. But, I'm totally stoked about it! Thanks in advance and welcome...to the Wonaverse!

Hey everyone, quick update for today. One of the biggest advantages we have as creators is the ability to see something before it exists. Vision is what separates people who create out of impulse from people who build with intention. It’s the difference between hoping a project works and designing a path that gives it the best chance to succeed. Tonight’s Premium Capital of Comics Masterclass recording goes deep into that idea. I’ll be sitting down with Dan Hills, CEO of Comix Wellspring, to talk about The Power of Vision in building both creative work and a thriving business. Dan and I think very similarly about growth, direction, and the long game, so this session is going to be incredibly useful for anyone who wants to build a sustainable creative career instead of just checking boxes. We’re going to dig into things like: - How a clear vision prevents avoidable mistakes during production - Why creators burn out when they build “in the dark” - How to set your project up so every decision moves you toward the future you want - The mindset shifts Dan has seen in the most successful creators he works with Standard members, you’ll still get access to the edited conversational portion of the episode when it’s released, so you’re covered. But if you want to be part of the full 2 hour live Masterclass, join the Q&A, and get access to every upcoming session, be sure to upgrade to premium before we go live in a couple of hours.

Your vision matters, and the more clarity you bring to it, the more powerful your work becomes. See you soon! Joel

Welcome to the Concept to Comic™ Academy! This is where we’re building a community of creators who want to level up their stories, sharpen their skills, and take real steps toward building long-term success using our favorite medium - Comics! Let’s kick things off the right way. Drop your introduction in the comments below. Tell us who you are, what you’re working on, and what brought you here. Doesn’t need to be formal. Just be real. A few prompts if you want them: - Where are you from? - What kind of stories do you love creating? - What are you working on right now (or hoping to start)? - What’s the big dream behind your project? - And if you want, share something outside of comics. Fitness goals, hobbies, anything that makes you… you. This group is here to help you learn new skills, stay consistent, and connect with other creators who are taking their work seriously. The more you put into this community, the more you’ll get out of it. I’m glad you’re here. Now, jump in and introduce yourself!

Hey All! We're all creators here. Whether aspiring or experienced, we all have projects that we are working on in some form. Let's talk about them! What are you working on?
