If somebody wanted to really learn the ins and outs of creating comics, are there any programs that you know of that are available to learn the craft? The one that I know about is the Center for Cartoon Studies (CSS). Ever hear of it?

I don't think there are any courses to get you into the comic industry. If you are a good writer or artist, keep doing spec work and trying to either self produce or get with a smaller label and build a name, or get your stuff in front of one of the big houses and hope you get lucky.

There are a lot of people who want to break into the industry, so competition is pretty stiff.

I checked out the website for the Center for Cartoon Studies, and if nothing else, it would certainly be a fun thing to do if a person had a real interest. I say go for it!

I've never thought there was specific schooling for comic creators. I always thought you just go to an art school and if you choose drawing/making comics as your profession, then cool.

I wonder if they have had any graduates actually get into the industry.
