Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

Re: "I had a whole other section of this column planned out, where I was going to talk about pitching and about the first five pages of a comic, and how you introduce yourself to your editor and your audience" -- I'm eagerly looking forward to that!
But that's next week. This week, it was educational to see your comments on being 10% more obvious than you think you should be. Those kind of specific examples are invaluable!
Oh, and the Archenemies trailer you put together was surprisingly good. I've never really watched many comic book trailers, but I believe you're right about if someone's first exposure to AE was through this trailer, they'd be interested in checking it out.
And, uh, we need to get some more people posting on these forums!
