I really did stop reading comics for a pretty long time, and I've talked to a lot of cartoonists who've found themselves in the same boat. Reading a comic when you've spent your whole day drawing them can feel like bringing your work home with you. I'm extremely grateful to CocomomoArt (whom you should all know from my recent videos on the BWHComics Twitch and YouTube channels) for lending me some manga when I visited her and jumpstarting an absolutely voracious reading binge.
Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.
