This will the the thread were I will happily update what kind of cool stuff I'm going to have for the Ferrin!

Oooh! What kind of cool stuff?

HAHAHA! You posted a thread for cool stuff before you have cool stuff to say?

I didn't want to post stuff at 10:30 at night XD

this is the cool stuff:



CHAPTER 1 OF FERRIN IN PRINT

That is pretty cool.

But... just one chapter. The story isn't finished but people will buy just one chapter?


Comics are sold a handful of pages at a time, are they? (I'm really not up-to-date with this side of things!)

People LOVE to buy chapters at conventions! Very affordable, and gives a good idea of the story. Also, collectible.

I've long since sold out of the chapters I printed for What it Takes.

Yeah, it's this WILD new thing they've been doing with comics for the last 70 years or so.

(They look lovely, Thiefy!)

Oh, okay. So even the 'comic book store' we see on US sitcoms, etc, they've sold stories like this forever, too, eh? You can tell I've never walked into one, eh?

Thank you for opening my eyes into this odd world I've managed to miss out on!

I tend to avoid comic book stores (I'm not the usual demographic, and few stock what I want), but at conventions, when you can keep products at or around common denominations (like $5), chapters and issues sell pretty quickly! Dude, you need to start a comic convention out your way!

But yeah, comic book stores stock issues, and when there are enough issues to warrant printing a volume, the stores sell that too. So long as the individual issues sold well anyway!

I would never buy a chapter of a comic book in stores, but I do buy volumes. At conventions, I buy both with equal fervor, as indie creators obviously have an easier time printing issues rather than volumes, which usually require things like a Kickstarter. Or a rich uncle who died and left you a ton of money...

Psst, Thiefy, you should post about having these at Staple over on the News thread...

Its been a year since anything was posted here... What's your current status of your comic book prints? Do you still have any of Chapter 1 available? Do you sell them signed?

I do, and also yes :V as a general rule any physical copies of anything I make gets a signature! It's part of the deal!

Currently it's up in the air wildly, but assuming I don't break, I am hoping to get chapter 2 and 3 printed before my next cons ?
