Former Godzilla artist teaches art of creating comics

A while back I had written how Godzilla artist Phil Hester was sharing his artistic trade with fellow comic book fans.

(You can find the original article here).

Now another Godzilla artist has joined the club, with former Godzilla artist Jeff Butler teaching comic book art courses at Madison Area Technical College.

For those not in the know Jeff Butler drew the infamous crossover comic Godzilla Vs. Barkley, which featured one of the most outlandish Godzilla fights ever!

Now he's using his talents to teach others how to create/draw comic books, capitalizing on the success comic book movies currently have in Hollywood.

It's always good when an artist gives back to the community like this.

No doubt his course will be a popular one among students, as instead of drawing apples sitting on a window still you can now draw Godzilla!

I'm sure he'll also state that those interested in a comic book career will face a tough road ahead.

Long hours drawing, tough deadlines, low pay per page (unless you're top talent) and hundreds more comic book artists wanting any job can create a pretty cutthroat environment.

In any case here's the link for more info on his course:
