Andy Warner Comics
"I place great value on the immediate impact a piece has and the fact that it can make people think, make people reconsider their assumptions, and make people share it with their friends. I'm okay that a week later the hive mind has moved on."
-Andy Warner, "Making Your Story" Webinar
