>>5771784>do i have to learn japanese to be a living as a comic writer + artist?No, there's a lot of platforms in the west that pay you to publish your (web)comic in them, self-publish, or contract, think: webtoon, tapas, lezhin, webcomicsapp, mangatoon, ArkHaven, beehive, etc, not to mention that you can self-publish your shit on amazon, and comiXology, all of that independent of patreon, and kickstarter.
