Wow. Surprised he didn't use Adobe Illustrator, which one would think 
would be more suited to this kind of work, but then again, I think Scott 
Adams mentioned he uses Photoshop with the same type of drawing tablet. 
So, apparently it's a "standard" among comic artists.

I'll have to watch the vid at home ...And, yeah .. Wacom makes tablets 
with a built-in monitor... Kinda neat, But my Intuos postage stamp (6x4, 
I think?) fits my budget better. I've done some line-arty type stuff in 
PS before, using paths. Someone mentioned that PS has more features than 
people generally use. Very true, I usually only use it for processing 
and adjusting photos. CS3 has an even more extensive feature set (I use 
this because my camera (40D) is only supported in the new Camera Raw.
