Well, yes. Obviously I was not talking about print publishing. Webcomics have more in common with performance arts. The show must go on, page after page, even if a piece of the backdrop falls over, an actor forgets his lines, or whoops! A plot hole opens up! Too late to patch it! Just have to leap over it, try not to trip, and keep on dancing!Morgaln wrote:That's actually where editors come in. Most authors don't publish their first draft. Even if they don't go over their work again themselves (most do, though), publishers have editors that will read the work and find all of those little flaws, inconsistencies and oversights that are liekly to make it into the story. In most cases authors will have to change things at that point. Obviously, that's not something that will happen in a webcomic where every page is published as soon as it is done.
ÔÇ£The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.ÔÇØ
