Shannon Wheeler is a pillar of the indie comics world, with his most famous creation being "
Too Much Coffee Man ". From its modest beginings, his strip has spun out into a newspaper comic strip, books, a lunch box, coffee mugs (natch) and two (!) operas. His latest strip "Postage Stamp Funnies" is in the print edition of the Onion .
Aside from the advice above, Shannon Wheeler had this advice for illustrator's developing their portfolios:
"What do I wish someone had told me? to trim my portfolio to target the client. I shouldn't try and show them that I can do all sorts of things - just show them that I can do what they want me to do. It would have saved me a lot of time and worry."
This is cool!
