I was talking to someone about wanting to "break into comics" and they laughed at me and said "we're already living the same life style no? You draw another book, go to con. I draw another book. I go to con."

One thing about “breaking into comics” is that unless you mean “I want to be so famous I never need to look for a gif and/or have full autonomy to do whatever I want and be paid for it,” you can do it right now. Just draw a comic and print it out. Get a table at a small local comic fest.

One thing about "breaking into comics" that I think a lot of creators need to process is that unless you mean is "I want to be so famous I never need to look for a gig and/or have full autonomy to do whatever I want and be paid for it" then it's a myth. It's always going to be a freelance hustle.
