He also says 24-Hour Comic Day is a good excuse to try wild ideas.

“I drink a lot of coffee, too,” he said.

ComicsPRO's Executive Director Amanda Emmert said the all-volunteer project is free to participants.

“We get to work with creators from many different countries, and the main thing they have in common is a love of comics,” she said in a 2011 interview with The Oklahoman. “Many hosts use this event as an opportunity to teach their communities about comics and about how anyone can make them. And making comics, or comic strips, or mini-comics, or Web comics, even at an amateur level, increases your understanding and appreciation of this amazing medium.”
