| The characters in Emma have a graphic, design aesthetic, but often backgrounds get a painterly treatment. What’s behind that choice? | Joel |
| Where most long form comics display one page at a time, you’ve opted for a 2-up page layout online. What things did you consider when formatting the site? | Joel |
| “Uh oh. Another post apocalyptic zombie comic.” — Some great concepts in Emma. What makes this comic different? | Joel |
| SkillShare! Tell us about how this works and your experience thus far. | Brian |

| a 2d Production artist at Riot Games in a 3d World? What is your place in this gaming cog over at Riot? Do you work on-site? | Brian |
| Give us a little bit about your background and how you land a job at a gaming studio? Where are the art jobs headed? The kids wanna know! | Brian |
| Webcomic passion or job? or both! | Brian |
| Your videos often talk about being a better artist. Did you decide to do the videos to share what you were already doing kind of like mapping your process or did you decide you wanted to do a YouTube Video thing and this was the subject. Both is also an answer…but it is the weakest answer! Are you weak! | Brian |
| You do a lot of 2d work which makes me think you are a bit old school. But you seem like you are in love with technology…is it a love hate relationship? | Brian |
| You’re a man, working on a comic with a female main character. Have there been any challenges to that, or has it all come naturally? | Matt |
| The opening for Emma is very cinematic. Is that how you see the story in your head? | Matt |
| KNKL Show | |
| You recently hit the 200 episode mark on your YouTube channel. What’s your number one take away from making that many shows? | Joel |
| One of the mantra’s you repeat on your show is that you only work for 26min out of every hour. Where did that come from? | Joel |
| Follow up — If it’s not too forward to ask… How do you get anything done? How do you work enough to support yourself? | Joel |
| What inspired you to create the KNKL show? Where do you see it going in the future? | Matt |
| You’re very natural in front of a camera. Any drama club in your past? | Matt |
