Chris Weston draws same size, then blows it up to submission size and re-inks it. I have a Ministry of Space page that proves it.

That's crazy, Weston's work is super-detailed.

Not that I doubt you, I just find it crazily surprising.

The book was, in fact, Scott McCloud's Making Comics. And, that is an interesting fact, Ward. I had been drawing everything same size, which I think is pretty obvious? It's really hard to write legibly that small.
I think the only comic I didn't think was drawn at the usual size was the "Bazooka Joe" comics in the bubblegum wrappers.

I don't know that I've even gotten better at drawing or comics or whatever but...just less afraid of being in my own skin.
hope there's many more of these to come; i would read daily.

ok I think in reality the best thing about it is this feedback from my Dad: "Funny, but the Beach Boys were actually on the beach at least once as is manifested by their picture of them in front of their woody and with surfboards on one of their albums. I was a kid when they came out. We wore white pegged pants and played with yoyos while listening to the Beach Boys."

this is exactly what I wanted the Great Pop Things book to be and it mostly wasn't (a few minor classix tho and I still regret lending it to someone and not getting it back)
the "astral plane" caption is possibly my favourite sentence ever
