International Man Of Webcomics: An Interview with Ryan Estrada

Ryan Estrada is a prolific creator with several webcomic titles to his credit as well as the ongoing video short series, Expeditions. He is currently handling the art duties on the poker-themed webcomic Life's A Bluff.

If you think there's a consensus out there, you might be surprised.
