When I was visiting Seattle, I talked a little with Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins about their process for making Penny-Arcade. They don’t approach things the same way that many of us do. In fact, I would say that when it comes time to actually create Penny-Arcade, Mike and Jerry really aren’t working on a webcomic per se. They’re just making Penny-Arcade. Whatever that is, however anyone who views it feels the need to label it. It is what it is, and their process bears very little resemblance to what I do on a daily basis.

This week, Scott is sick, but we still muster the energy to discuss copyright and turnkey ad systems.
