Hi comic creators and readers 👋
How much would you expect to pay for an indie, self published single issue these days? (22-24 pages)
Keep in mind: indies aren’t Marvel or DC - large pubs can afford to charge less due to other revenue they make.
What do you think? 🤔
Shares appreciated ❤️
US$5. Maybe US$6 if clear on its face it's 22-24 pages of story & art (and therefore 2-4pgs more than DC/Marvel). I don't give added value to cardstock covers or variant covers. Crowdfundingwise, backers should get a discount, if anything, not pay a premium since they are taking on creators' risk.
any fans of Claremont's SOVEREIGN SEVEN?

Daredevil leaps across the skyscrapers of New York City. As he falls, he throws a truncheon with a rope to swing to his next location. - Daredevil #1, March 1998 by Kevin Smith, Joe Quesada & Jimmy Palmiotti
Daredevil crosses paths with a virgin teen girl and her newborn baby who she believes is a miracle from heaven.
She says an angel told her that a devil would be the child's protector.
Before Matt can object, the girl vanishes and the savior has been left in the devil’s (Daredevil's) care.
G.I. Joe Zartan Sssilent Missions one-shot with artist Pat Olliffe listed first, then writer Tom DeFalco then colorist John Kalisz.
Picked up Zartan #GIJoe Sssilent Missions primarily for Tom DeFalco plotting a full length action story, but very much appreciate that artist Pat Olliffe received top billing. Looking forward to "reading" this one again.

Jae Lee was a friggin' beast in the early 90s! His Chapel was absolutely terrifying!

SUPERMAN RED &SUPERMAN BLUE! Card from the Fleer Ultra Superman set. I drew one of these guys in Aquaman. I don’t remember how he got this way.
I miss it actually. And reads smoothly enough in collections of older material. Of course, we did get 2 more pages of story back then so more room for it.

All of which is a bummer because The Atom Ray Palmer is one of my favorite characters and have long waited for #CaptainAtom to make a big return to the main #DCUniverse. Save some coin and just get #4 for Captain Atom vs Major Force.

Justice League: The Atom Project TPB
#JusticeLeague The Atom Project suffered from two of my pet peeves in modern #comics "storytelling." Jumped back & forth between short time periods to no impact (now, then, past, present) and the story ENDED with the START of the promised premise.

What an honor. Morgana Pendragon #1 won Best First Issue at the Inaugural @thezeldaawards.bsky.social A big thank you to the entire team: @aldenkart.bsky.social @wksahadewa.bsky.social Troy Peteri and @rioburton.bsky.social
Really? Set up didn't sound like my cup of tea. Glad it worked for you!
Me, counting years ‘til LORD OF THE RINGS becomes public domain so I can publish a graphic novel…
With 23 years of continuous work as a letterer, and over 30 years of print/production experience, I’m now unable to find any new lettering work in comics.
Please keep me in mind when staffing your creator-owned projects and please consider requesting me on your WFH projects 🙏
ERADICATOR! Card from the Fleer Ultra Superman set. How about them specs. Did he just have cataract surgery?
Issues of Ultraverse series PRIME and MANTRA.
List of the Ultraverse "Founding Fathers" with the tagline "Writers are the best enhancement!"
If there was ever a #comics line where the founders would have benefited from more diversity, it's gotta be #MalibuComics #Ultraverse. If there was a woman in this group, I feel some of these titles may have aged better.

Keith Giffen's TRENCHER #1
I wouldn't have appreciated Giffen's TRENCHER style in the #90s, but it really makes you take a look at the art to get all the storytelling, especially with sparse dialog/narration.
