Tricks for standing out with the flood of new content?
Hello everyone,

re: I'm New To This Platform, Is It Worth It?

re: Do you maintain a schedule for creation of your comic? Do you use a buffer?

At the moment it's about publishing material as it's finished by the team to build up an open catalogue of content to try to attract readers. Then build up a buffer of one or two issues, then promote and adhere to a bit more of a rigid release schedule of issues.

re: An offer for two indie comic characters to make a cameo appearance.

I can't offer up any characters due to non-earth timelines and whatnot, but this is a really cool concept.

re: What do you like to do outside making comics?

@MK-Wizard It's for better or for worse. When I want a quiet weekend or take time off, I feel like crap for letting people down or falling behind on stuff.
