We recently launched GlobalComix Gold and SuperFan Program just in time for the holiday season.

We were even featured in The Hollywood Reporter!

And for good reason: we want you to be able to read titles from our creator community without anything slowing you down. Those new tools are making it easier than ever for fans like you to support their favorite creators.

While we all get wrapped up in the excitement of the gift giving spirit, you can get 50% off on GlobalComix Gold between today and of the end of Cyber Monday. The discount will expire on November 30th at midnight Eastern Time.

This is your chance to have an entire month of access to over 1000 comics for the price of a single cup of...

This season has been full of announcements for GlobalComix, and all of them have had one central theme - supporting the creators and publishers of comics, graphic novels, and manga with as much digital firepower as we can. Diversity not only shines through in the stories and personalities of our creators, but also in the way that they run their business. We proudly announce a new combination to complete the suite of monetization models for every type of creator and publisher: Gold and The SuperFan Program.


GlobalComix Gold


GlobalComix Gold is our answer to the demand for subscriptions, marrying together full access for readers and the empowerment of creators by facilitating direct financial...

We’ve spoken with many creators and publishers in the past year. Despite each of their unique styles, most of them share a lot of the same needs. This is particularly true when it comes to letting more than one person or account manage published content, marketing, or finances.

Here’s some stories we’ve heard:

• We are a team of people with different responsibilities for publishing, marketing, and business administration.
• We are a partnership of 2 (or more) individuals who are creating and publishing together as a collaboration.
• I am a creator who sometimes has people help me with <x> role of publishing.
• I am a solo operator who manages everything myself.

Based on this,...

The reason we read comics is that they satisfy us with their stories, and sometimes with their physical or tactile experiences. Sometimes those things get intermingled, and we have a hard time deciphering one from the other.

With hundreds of thousands of readers having come through our platform over the past year, we’ve been watching and listening to both feedback and reading behavior in general. As a result, today we are very excited to announce that we’re launching the new GlobalComix Reader v2: what we believe to be the simplest and best reading experience in digital comics.


Interactive Reading Improvements

We have carefully improved the reading and transition animations of the...

Chris recently hosted a demo and Q&A with a group of folks around the GlobalComix community. He spent the first half going step by step through the platform uploads, features, and overall flow as a creator / publisher. The second half was dedicated to a variety of excellent questions by the attendees.

Watch the full video below on YouTube. (For the chronically impatient, like me, I recommend you increase the speed to 1.25-1.5x. Just don't be surprised when world seems a bit slow after you're done!)

Chris, Eric, and I wanted to thank everyone who supported, promoted, and attended our first webinar last week.

One of our main goals at GlobalComix is to provide the skills and information to help comic creators and publishers be successful. We hope to carry the positive feedback we received from this first event into additional events throughout the year.

If you didn’t get a chance to see our presentation, or if you’d like to see it again, please feel free to watch it here.

If you’d like to get a free consultation on the digital marketing for your comics, please let me know and we can get the process started.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Have fun with your...

If you’re looking for help and support on how to grow your digital comic fanbase, please join us in our new Facebook group for digital marketing. This will be a way for us all to connect with folks in the community, on and off GlobalComix, about engaging more deeply with the tools of digital.

The group has already touched on a handful of key concepts, such as identifying your ideal reader, written by our very own Gamal Hennessy. We’d love for the group to continue growing as a place for people to share experiences with one another as well, so please bring any wisdom you’ve earned!

We’re currently building towards a free digital marketing webinar on Thursday, June 25...

Today we have the pleasure to announce and welcome Gamal Hennessy to the GlobalComix team as Vice President of Content. He is established as a trusted leader both in legal representation and publishing, bringing with him the gravity of two decades of experience in the comics industry.

At a time when the comics industry is changing faster than ever, we are very excited to join forces with a veteran who has worked towards both professional and indie creator and publisher success for decades. We are confident that he will help us make this platform meet the needs of our community with utmost dedication to the art and culture of comics while working to develop our creator and publisher...


Our mission at GlobalComix is to create the best possible publishing service for comic creators to bring their work to a global audience. At first, our platform brought comics reading to all devices and let creators connect and engage with their fans. We then added tools that made the comic uploading and publishing faster and helped readers discover even more great content. Now, it’s time to take things further.

Today, together with 215 Ink and our professional creators, we’re extremely proud to announce GlobalComix Creator Pro, a service that helps publishers and professionals maximize their digital publishing revenues.

Creator Pro - What’s in the box?

Starting at...

In August last year, we opened our doors to the public for the first time to let creators begin publishing their work and testing out the platform. Since then, we’ve been working with a small group of early adopters to gather feedback. We’ve been rebuilding and constantly improving many of our features in preparation for launching GlobalComix to a bigger audience.

We have a deep respect for artists and their work, and we want to make sure we can create a path to financial success for creators. So today we are introducing the next big feature for our platform; Paid Comics Publishing. Whether you are an independent comic creator, a team, or an established publisher, you can...

After more than 3 years of hard work and dedication, we are excited to open up the doors to our brand new comics platform, GlobalComix. We believe it represents the first steps in changing the course of digital comics publishing.

Books, music and videos have found ways to leverage the potential of the Internet, while comics remain largely sold and distributed through what are essentially online and proprietary book stores. We are here to change that. By making global digital comics publishing as easy-to-use and accessible as possible, and providing artists and publishers the tools they need to reach out directly to an audience, we hope to usher in a new era of comic publishing online.

We are proud to announce the opening of GlobalComix beta signups. For the past two years we have been working hard with one goal in mind: to create a platform for people to read and publish comics. But more than anything we’re creating a worldwide community where creators can share, get inspired and connect with fans and contributors around the globe - and where readers can have the best possible comic reading experience.
Here are some of the things you can expect when we launch:

Comic Creator Tools and Interactive Reading Experience
