What happens if you like my artwork?

Randy Stradley (Senior Editor of Dark Horse Comics) gives expert video advice on: How can an artist submit his work to you?; What is the ideal artist portfolio?; Do you prefer reviewing original or photocopies? and more...

That's when the challenge starts because if I say “you're hired", you have a month or forty days to turn around a 22 page story. Some are going to drop dead in terror, because they're excited about it, at the time they think that's what they wanted to do, but when it comes right down to it, drawing comics is a lot of work. And, I've had a number of occasions where somebody new has drawn one issue and that's it. They decided "I can't draw comics any more - it's to much work." And you really have to want to do it, especially we've had a lot of people who do movie story boards and they work in the entertainment industry and they're in love with the idea of doing comics. So they do one issue and they are like, “No. I get paid a lot more to do story boards, I'll stick with that.”
