I spent 6 weeks working on a comic. I did everything in Poser and Photoshop. The comic was 9 pages in length and was published in an online e-zine.

The day the check arrived I was so excited! I was an honest-to-goodness published artist!

I tore it open and read $25.

My heart sank. I since haven't had the spirit left to work so hard for so little.
