Wednesday, December 8, 2010 at 5:00AM I mentioned this in the Private Forum yesterday, but I thought it might help to have a step-by-step guide to importing a batch of image files into a multi-page document. If you're laying out a book, this will save you from having to import each comic (or each page) individually.

However, until recently I didn’t realize that his view was in the minority, nor that he has taken flak in the past for holding this conviction.
Friday, December 3, 2010 at 5:00AM Today's Archive Dive comes from Dec. 21, 2009, when we discussed some ways to use out-of-the-ordinate punctuation to convey complex emotions and situations.
Often in comics, punctuation marks are doubled or mixed to convey complex emotions. And that often leads to some pretty confusing situations for a cartoonist.
