Hear I was thinking that I would be able to post an example of this for everyone but I’m starting to learn just how finicky artists really are.

I’ll be honest. I did not get today’s Chugworth Academy at first. This didn’t really surprise me. While I read Chugworth every update, in general I enjoy the artwork more than the writing. It’s just a style that doesn’t jell with me.

That’s why it’s so nice to have a few veterans around we can point to as examples of who is getting it done and doing it right. One of those is Brad Guigar who is arguably one of the most influential people in web comics last year. February 14 marked six years of daily webcomics which started with his original strip, Greystone Inn, on February 14, 2000, and has updated every Monday-through-Saturday ever since with few exceptions.
