## Resource

Making friends in the comics community can be... complicated. After all, we're kind of an introverted bunch! When it comes to social interactions, Brad and Dave have made all the mistakes, so you don't have to! They'll talk about trying too hard, encountering hostility, and trying to fit into a community that's just not right for you.
