We were wondering about Ahmed’s creative process, to which he replied: “Sorry, trade secret. Kidding! For gag comics, I usually write what’s on my mind at the time, or make a note on my phone when an idea strikes. For story comics, I have a notebook with sketches, thumbnails and concepts for planning. I currently mostly work digitally.”
