Comics Experience gave me invaluable feedback on my work, encouraged me to challenge myself artistically AND provided essential real-world knowledge about the comic book industry. Throw in a supportive, friendly community that includes top-notch professionals and you’ve got simply the best place to become the comics professional you aspire to be.

As a former student of the courses myself, whenever people ask me about breaking into comics, usually the first thing I tell them is to look at enrolling in Comics Experience. Not a day goes by that I don’t use something I learned in those classes in my own work. Andy Schmidt & co. are fantastic teachers, and anyone serious about telling stories in this medium should definitely consider utilizing the resources they offer.

I was amazed at both the detail and honesty from the creators. It has a great feeling, almost like one is being invited into the homes of these guys. You know what I mean? Open a glass of wine and talk shop. I can’t imagine how anybody could have this kind of access to comic creators if not for Comics Experience.

Working with such incredible, comic-loving people in the Community, all of whom are willing to point out and help me through rough areas of my scripts, is priceless, and on those occasions when I make someone laugh or hear that they enjoyed what I had written makes my day, month and year all at the same time.

This was the first time a comic book script of mine “came to life” with full art and lettering, and having Andy’s guidance throughout the process was invaluable. I have no doubt the final product is better for it. It was a very educational and enlightening experience.

During my months in Comics Experience’s Community I received invaluable feedback from both professional comic book creators and talented new artists that has been essential in driving my growth as a comic book writer and artist. This online community is a great place to hone your craft in a supportive environment while meeting new friends who share your love for comic books and it is my pleasure to recommend it as such.

I think the Editing class with Andy was worth every penny. If a person wants to make money with comics, this class is essential. The class gives a bare-knuckles tutorial on how to set up financial spreadsheets for your comic projects. It opens the door to reality on how much creating comics costs and how to work with a team to help the production process. Comics Experience has taught me every aspect of comic book making and I am thankful.

So I just finished my very first comic. There were a hundred different things I had to do for the very first time. What’s really crazy is, thanks to the classes and community at Comics Experience, I’ve felt totally prepared every step of the way. It’s all there!

I LOVE me some Comics Experience! If you’re looking to grow as a creative, Comics Experience is the place! Andy was fantastic at teaching me the proper format, how to effectively use dialogue, and everything else you need to know to write a professional comic. I’m very thankful for the knowledge and experience I gained through the process. Would DEFINITELY recommend!

If you are someone looking to get your comic book created, I highly recommend using Comics Experience’s Creative Services to bring your project to completion. The staff are efficient, helpful, completely professional, and gave the right notes to make my project even better than what I had in my head. I will definitely be using this again in the future and look forward to my next project with Comics Experience.

If you are an aspiring comic creator, Comics Experience is the place for you. You have entire courses taught by professionals on comic writing, comic art, comic production and so much more. You have access to a whole community that shares your interest in comics and wants to help your comic-making-dreams become a reality. The resources provided by Comics Experience are just too good to pass up.

I have for years and years had ideas, notes, rambling journal entries, etc with no idea of what to do with them. I have tried for so long, looking for help from somewhere. Now, I have done something I have never done before with my writing, I have finished something! More importantly I can take what I have learned and use it to complete something else. I can’t tell you how much I have gotten from your courses. I feel like I stumbled across some amazing secret when I found your website. I would recommend your courses without reservation to anyone!

After years of struggling to get feedback for my stories, Comics Experience was a dream come true. The instant critiques are absolutely worth the price of admission. The CE community is one large family, sharing a common goal: making comics. There’s nothing better than that. And Andy Schmidt is a kind and handsome man.

Working with Andy was a real pleasure! He’s both friendly and professional. But best of all, he’s knowledgeable, creative, and understands how to tell a great story! I’d be happy to work with him again! Excelsior!
