Go, Read: Josh Fialkov On Paying The Artists More

Josh Fialkov has written a short essay here about why artists work harder on a specific comics project than a writer does -- I suppose there are exceptions to that rule, but it's hard to imagine one that isn't sporting a halo of lunacy. I imagine in trying to prove one of those exceptions people will do backflips but as a general rule it holds. It's also I think worth looking at it as costs and profits. I remember when I was doing a comic and we looked around as to what would be an equitable model, I asked a Rushmore-level alt-comics person how much the writer should make and they said. "1/20."
