I've been offline for a bit and didn't notice this, sorry if you feel I'm necromancing this.
You can use a variety of shaped felt tipped pens to get similar effects, Micron makes edged pens and felt 'brushes' that work reasonably well. Pentel makes a great brush pen (Amazon link) that's refillable and really pretty awesome. Nearly every cartoonist I know has a couple of these.
If you want to work digitally, you can get Wacom's excellent Intuos medium tablet for $350. Or even cheaper, search 'Wacom' on ebay, I just found two great deals (an Intuos 4 medium wireless tablet for about $150, and a Intuos 4 wired large tablet for $225). I use an Intuos 3 and it's still great. You could also look up their Bamboo line, I've never used them, but they are well reviewed.
The input device is almost secondary to the software. Photoshop is great, and can do anything, but that's almost its problem. It does so much more then you're going to need and it's expensive. I switched to MangaStudio last year and I can't imagine going back. It is specifically made for comic artists and does a spectacular job of it for 1/10th the price (it's often on sale on Amazon for about $125 for the full version, $25 for the rather extensive 'debut' version, but go for the full version, the few extra features it offers are gigantic time savers). The best thing about drawing digitally is it removes the fear of not getting a line perfect. No need to get it right the first time when there's UNDO, it's been a life saver. The publisher, Smith Micro also ust released a public beta for their new Motion Artist software that simplifies animation and HTML5 coding. Together they make a pretty excellent package.
Cintiqs are great, but the $2500 price tag is a pretty huge hurdle to overcome. If you're used to using a tablet, my advice would be to consider just upgrading. No need to go breaking the bank on such an extravagance when you can similar results for 1/5th the cost.
Copy and pasting artwork from one frame to another is obvious and lazy. I know that sounds mean, but I was a comics major in college and my professor would have said the exact same thing. Avoid shortcuts if you want to get better. Also, the textured frame is distracting. May I recommend a book? Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud was incredibly useful when I first started out, and it's always great to go back to it. You're prolific enough to continue creating, so maybe it's good to develop good habits over bad. If I'm going to keep seeing your comic, I'd like to see you improve.

I just wanted to give a little constructive feedback, and point out that your perspective drawing needs some work, e.g. the paper looking like it's on a different plane from the desk is a bit jarring.
I recommend giving Perspective! for Comic Book Artists by David Chelsea a read. Bonus: It's not standard textbook format, but rather an entertaining graphic novel! Which is good, because it has that many more visual examples (that also showcase Chelsea's amazing skill).
Just be careful, because French-pressed coffee has the ability to raise your cholesterol if you're not careful, because it's not passing through a paper filter. Source
I use something called an AeroPress, which is basically like the best of both worlds (drip vs. press). Love this thing and never looked back.
Every strip she does leaves me feeling so incredibly happy and giggly.
Also, as a general reminder to people who enjoy reading her, her book is being released October 29th. (Canadian link)
In the Zombie Fallout book series the protagonist was a avid zombie lover and he even says himself he wished for the zombie apocalypse to happen.
There's also Twitter: The Comic: The Book. It's great.
I have this one that I use with a gopro. It's actually great.
Batman: The Man Who Laughs
Reminds me (look and dialouge-wise) of the art of Jason Shiga...Empire State is so so good. Like, really good.
Jellaby! That's it. Thank you so much. I have a niece I've been dying to show this too.
It seems like it's no longer availble online, the webcomic dropped the web part and got itself published. But here's a link for the first book in case anyone else is looking for it:
http://www.amazon.com/Jellaby-Volume-1-Kean-Soo/dp/B002QGSWOM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1344799871&sr=8-2&keywords=jellaby
The S4 has 7500mah batteries available.
That might last more than four hours. I hope.
Like 'Lenore'?

Here are the sources I used. Well, these and wikipedia. There's actually more out there than you might think because even though the story was pre-internet, some documents only got released in the last few years.

PSA: You can pre-order her book now on Amazon!
It's set to be released in October of this year, and will be half new material and half stories from her blog (the old ones will possibly have new illustrations).
