Here’s the truth of it: Webcomics are still a nascent industry. There are no clear-cut guideposts that have been long established. So we — all of us — must look for guidance, insights and advice where we can.

If, in your cartooning career, you look only to what’s happening in comics, you’re missing a much broader and much richer tapestry of lessons that can be picked up from researching other artists working on the web: Musicians, painters, writers, bloggers, and more.

Hope that helps!
