Dang it Clint… You don’t say these things in front of the Avengers Insurance Adjuster. Deadpool is not on our policy. We can’t cover his damages. Oy vey.
Deadpool is what an insurance agent would call “high risk.”
If it’s wrong for factory workers to be treated this way, it’s wrong for animators to be treated this way too.
Originally featured on Yaraon! and then shown on Kotaku some time ago, This further illustrates the point bill-Rinaldi was trying to make about how hard Artists in the Animation/Anime Industry work. Although it’s not nearly so bad in America (and we have different positions over here) we still work our butts off.
From Kotaku: “Picked up on the Japanese blog Yaraon!, this manga, titled 90% Job Turnover!? The Truth About Animators is more than just an 8-page look at the job description of Japanese animators, but rather, a boots on the ground examination of the industry. The manga is short but it makes its point fairly bluntly: making anime is not for the faint of heart.”
While this manga is not representative of ALL anime production studios, it does seem to reflect the general atmosphere. In the above gallery, you can read the manga, which I have translated from its original Japanese.”
Why does the sound guy make so much compared to everyone else?!?. Wish I knew the name of the Manga artist to give him full credit…It’s hard out here for an animator.

Make sure to check out my former studiomate Becky Cloonan’s creator-owned stuff— it’s brilliant! Can’t wait for Demeter!
Hi guys! I’ve moved this shop over to a new domain, and combined it with a few friends- enter THE WEREHOUSE!
Not to fear- all orders that were made through my old Bigcartel site will be shipped this week- and if you haven’t received an order for some reason please email me- beckyattack@gmail.com, and I’ll sort out the problem asap!
I want to thank everybody for championing my self-published work, and sticking with me even though towards the last few months it got a little crazy— especially now that con season (and allergies) have kicked in!
The main reason for the new store is because I just can’t keep up with this stuff on my own. It’s grown way bigger than I ever thought possible! I am overwhelmed by the support you’ve shown me over the last few years, and I’m pleased to say that I’ve mailed out over 4,000 books in that time!!! This whole thing has been a huge learning experience, since I basically jumped into this without any idea of what to expect, and now I feel like I might kind of know what I’m doing! (More or less.) Now with the Lounak guys behind Werehouse, it’ll free up more of my time at the studio to getting comics drawn!
So check out the Werehouse. It’s got work by Andy Belanger, Karl Kerschl and a whole bunch of other stuff too. Some products have bene taken off to make way for new ones, and DEMETER has been added up as a preorder! (Exciting!)
I want to point out one big change that comes with the new store- I’m phasing out my silk screened covers, which will be replaced with a new, completely offset edition. This new printing will still be wicked nice- I’ve even updated the cover design of both Wolves and The Mire! The interiors won’t change- really this just makes the silk screened editions a little more “collectable,” whatever that means. :) Rest assured that you will still be getting a good quality book; I took a page from John Hammond’s playbook and spared no expense.
As for DEMETER pre-orders, there are two options- $10.00 for the screen printed cover, and $5.00 for the offset. (There is also a third $50.00 sketch edition available, that is limited to 100.) The extra color on the cover raised the price point- but it looks great and I have no regrets!
Any questions you guys have please feel free to ask- I’ll try to answer them as best I can! :D
Thank you, I love you!

Another pic from the studio’s DnD blog. I don’t know why, but drawing these elves and dwarves makes me happy :)
Backfire!
Upon encountering their long-sought rivals— the dread-sorcerer Malareth of the Black Robes and his unholy minions— the spell-weavers of the group, Melissa and Maxie, divined and executed a hasty plan.
No doubt inspired by Killgore’s dwarven inventivity, Melissa sprayed her lamp-oil over the undead foes and around the entire cell, while Maxie let lose a powerful rain of fire.
But alas, elven hands were made for embroidery and the plucking of flower petals, not for the gruesome work of warcraft, and the trap— however well planned— exploded in Melissa’s face.
It was up to the usually unscrupulous Arf Nads to pull Melissa from the blaze, and Killgore who, in full honor of his unerringly noble nature, held no grudge from the time that he and Melissa’s situations were reversed, doused her still smoldering body with cooling water to put out the flames.
With the enemy alerted to their presence and enraged at the ruin of his experiments, and their healer mere inches from death, the heroic adventurers found themselves suddenly needing a change in strategy…
Deathmatch comps came in the mail today! It kind of feels like cheating to get comps for just doing the covers— I bet this is how Greg Land feels! The insides by Carlos Magno and Paul Jenkins are actually even better. Really cool series!
