kybearfuzzOne of my morning errands was to finally get a printed copy of last comic book issue.
There is a little something fun about holding the printed copy of the comic book in my hands. As usual, I ran to Kinko's to get it done. Today, I was helped by a guy named Rod, who is usually an okay guy, but he must be having a crappy morning. I cracked a joke and he didn't even blink. So I made my request and he started working on it in awkward silence while I waited.
Still, the result was good. I have to admit that it seems to come out darker than it does on the computer screen. I do the comic in "RGB" and I have heard that I should do them in "CYMK" color mode. However, since the comic is primarily an online comic, RGB is supposed to be better. I need to check into some kind of conversion for the printing, especially if I go forward with any plans to print these in the future.
Once I have the printed copy, I put them in plastic sleeves, with the original artwork and the finished product on opposing pages.
The end result is pretty compact and easy to shelve, so I can pull them and take a look at them later for reference.

But I was thinking first and foremost about your control over your art -- control in the sense of tweaking and fine-tuning, something you can't do with PDFs and such. But you should absolutely check out inexpensive ways to calibrate your monitor so that your onscreen display perfectly matches the final output. That will alleviate a lot of headaches for you.
