I have recently been working on a new series of illustrations to add to the Monster Gallery. I’ve been enjoying putting my cartoony take on classic monsters, but I wanted to show more than just the characters striking a pose. I came up with this idea to design cartoon parodies of the classic films these monsters were featured in. I’ve done a few of them so far and uploaded them to the Monster Gallery and they’ll be added to the store if anyone is interested in getting prints or shirts because I think this series is turning out great.

I recently added a new monster to the Monster Gallery, Thanos, the Mad Titan. He’s been the main villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for quite some time. In Avengers: Infinity War his true evil comes to the forefront. I enjoyed putting a cartoony spin on this big purple baddy. Prints are also now available in the online store!

The many ways to read a comic strip

Orders of the new Doctor Necromantic Comic Magazine have been very encouraging. I want to thank everyone who has ordered a copy. I am very proud with how it came out, with the newsprint pages and larger magazine format, I think it's awesome! When I started the strip I was very careful to come up with a design that could be enjoyed online as well as in print, but I can't help but feel a particular affinity towards seeing the finished comics in ink on paper. Even though I work digitally, it doesn’t feel "finished" until it's down on paper. I offer a wide variety of ways people consume the strip and my favorite by far is to read the strips back to back in a comic book.

Of course, most people are going experience the strip on the internet. I draw and design DN in the format of a traditional comic "strip", that is a series of panels laid out horizontally, and that is how I present it here on the DN site. However, I know that most people are consuming online content through their phone. So, I also took special care to make sure the strip would end up readable on people's handheld devices.

Each panel in the strip is square and after I finish each one I cut the image into a series of panels for posting online. This allows me to arrange the strip into a 2x2 format, making the whole strip a square for easier reading on smaller devices. I can also then post them as a series of panels to sites that support it, like Instagram and Webtoons.

Setting all this up ahead of time with templates and pre-set formats helps to streamline the process of publishing online. There are 7 different social media accounts I post the strip to, each with its own positive and negative aspects and audiences. That may be excessive and if I see an account isn't catching on I can eventually drop it.

The First Six Months
Jul 14, 2018
Nate Bramble

I recently started selling the first issue of the Doctor Necromantic Comic Magazine here on my site. The comic collects the first six months of strips into a larger than normal, magazine sized format on aged newsprint and inside a glossy cover. I'm very happy with how it turned out and glad to see orders going out the door to readers.

The release of the comic book marks a halfway point of my first year in publishing the strip online. In the time I've been writing and drawing the strip I've learned a lot about how webcomics work these days. Creating and uploading the comic is very different from when I was creating my previous comic back in 2007. Today social media plays a much larger role in gathering a readership and the digital tools I use to produce the strip have improved by quite a large margin.

So far I've been able to keep up with the publishing schedule I've set out for myself. Assuming I can keep the machine humming along I'll be set to publish a second issue by the end of the year and then continue with a bi-annual publishing schedule from then on.

I'm enjoying getting to know these characters. It's interesting how the more I write and drawn them the easier it becomes to know what they'll do in the situations I imagine. It's almost like they start telling me what they would say or how they would react. They're taking up residence in my head. The more they start steering the ship the easier it'll be to write for them. I wonder what they'll do next?
