Hey Hey! I'm Copoki, the creator of Black Noblesse manga with Dominic Pinto! As a huge fan of comics, manga, anime, and TV shows, I've been inspired to create my own story. Excited to share my work with you all!

I would just have a question regarding the monetization: So, If I have the super fan early access activated and in addition to that, I set up an expiring paywall, what would happen if a reader were to donate for superfan access? Would they gain access to the full release as usual or would the paywall hit them if they don't have a GC Premium Account?
Thanks in advance and happy holidays!

@ArtCrumbs: It's true that production companies or animation studios that change aspects of the manga often hurt the quality of the story, but anime and TV adaptations can be seen as promotional tools for the source material IMO as manga/comics often see a boost in sales after such adaptation. But obviously, you need a decent adaptation for that to happen.
Also, I think we need to separate "a high-quality story" and "a story that sells" as a high-quality story doesn't always sell and a story that sells isn't always high-quality.
@Nimesh: I totally agree! I feel like many creators create comics without ever having read one.
@cmc: That's true and kinda scary. I feel like the market is really going through some changes recently in terms of content.
@ArtCrumbs: Lots of interesting points with which I agree!
1. It's true that even successful titles can take years before getting an adaptation (ex: Invincible, Vinland Saga, Tower of God), and successful Webtoons such as Unordinary still don't have adaptations. So, it could take longer for us indies to get an adaptation, at least one that pleases us.
2. Totally agree, I wouldn't want what happened to God of High School and Promised Neverland to happen to my manga, but then I believe that Robert Kirkman was able to have his say in the adaptation of The Walking Dead. That's the best deal!
3. Well, I think everything could be well-adapted with today's tool you must just find the right lane (Movie, TV Series, Animation, Game). Especially when you see that Netflix was able to create a decent live-action of One Piece.
4. I get your point but I definitely would watch my own show especially if I wasn't part of the creative process.
I agree that we should focus on our manga/comics and our audiences before anything, if people like it everything will come along in time.
My questions for you:
Do you think comics, in general, are over-reliant on TV and Movies? Are comics now primarily a source of ideas for the film and TV industry? Or have these two industries always been interconnected?
I usually write an arc synopsis in prose, then divide it into chapters, before writing a first draft of my script. Although the format of my scripts is closer to the screenplay format, I feel like the way I tell the story is closer to novels than screenplay.
Games: Final Fantasy, The Witcher 3, God of War, Dragon Quest...
Show: One Piece, Hunter x Hunter, Jujutsu Kaisen, FMA Brotherhood, Naruto, Gotham, Vikings, Peaky Blinders...
I've learned so much from these shows as well as so many others!
