I've heard that this can be a good experience if one is contemplating entering the business, but I was wondering if anyone here has ever done it. Any success stories? Horrror stories? I'm considering this myself after I graduate and was wondering if it was really worth it.

We've had interns before that earned 6 credits doing work for us.

do your interns actually do anything or is it dignified coffee ordering? I'm just curious

Most internships are just free labor for the employer, consisting of menial tasks nobody else wants to bother with.

I doubt the comics industry is any different.

My pal and former co-worker at Page32.net was able to turn his work there into an internship with Viper Comics this past year. He's supposedly having a good experience with it.
