I find it amazing that artists go digital completely. Why would you give up that revenue stream?

Me too! Fiona! Do you hear this? Stop being stupid in throwing away money. We want original art. You're neglecting a very profitable niche.

Fiona was asked at WonderCon if she regretted working digitally because she couldn't sell the original pages. Her answer:
"I don't really care about selling the original art. I guess my first concern is doing the comic as well as I can and as fast as I can. Working digitally is the best way I can do that…I don't want to change my process and go out of my way to [sell pages.] To me, the printed comic is the finished product. I'm lucky enough to be able to make a living just by selling 'Saga' for now. I sometimes have prints to sell. I do little sketchbooks sometimes, but no pages."

Eh, whatever. So is she saying that she really wouldn't have a career in comics if it weren't for a computer? I know there are always 'defend the creator' people on here, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but it's kind of weak she can't bust it out on paper. She could do layouts digitally then print it and ink. Tons of amazing artists do this, like Mark Brooks and Ruan Ottley. She is sitting on wasted cash, wouldn't you find a way to tap it and still keep the final product solid?
