    When I did webcomics I was worried nobody would think they were funny or had some reservations about public opinions.

    Then I watched some documentary on comic artists, including Calvin & Hobbe’s Bill Watterson, and he said something like “I just make something I think is funny, and if my wife also thinks it’s funny that’s a bonus, and everyone else can think whatever they want to think, but I’m happy with it, and that’s all I really cared about.”

    And that was enough for me to get into it.

    Make it for you first. Everyone else is a bonus.
