How about a discussion on science fiction markets, for either short stories, novels, or comics...? In print and on the web; both would be interesting to me.
Have any of you ever tried to shop around your stories? I'd like to hear tales of successes and failures. _________________

OK, here's another one. Been listening to a lot of Art and Story podcasts, in which they talk a lot about the craft and process of comics, and I'm going to suggest you steal one of their ideas.
Each of you pick a page or strip of your own comic that you really like, and talk about why you like it. The composition, the camera angles, the word balloon placement, the timing of the joke, the way you really nailed that mitten hand, whatever. Ben, if you're not involved in page layout (not sure what your scripts look like?), you could select a page where you were particularly proud of the dialogue, or the way the word balloons are arranged, or something. And then each of you can pick a page or strip that you weren't happy with, and talk about what you disliked and what you would improve if you were to do it again (not that I'm suggesting anybody redraw anything!).
Make sure you post links to the pages you talk about in the show notes! _________________

I wouldn't have much to say about the first topic (though maybe the other guys would), but I'm sure I could come up with something to say on the second one.
Thanks for the suggestions! _________________

Yea I think it'd be cool if you guys started a thread, and everyone posted their absolute favorite episode of their own comic (and why), and we all talked about each other's favorite episode, or something.
Does that sound fun? _________________
