WELCOME BACK to Pencil to Pencil, the creative livecast where YOU, dear viewer, get to interact LIVE with expert comic book creators.

This week, your hosts, JAMAR NICHOLAS, STEVE CONLEY and MIKE MANLEY examine a continuous curiosity from people outside of the comics-creating community: How much do you get paid? Wait, that's all?! But, I thought...

What DID you think? From #publisherspaidme to #comicsbrokeme to comic page rates stuck in the last century, your hosts discuss the economics of making comics.

THIS IS WEEKLY CAN'T-MISS INTERNET!
