Parapsych Ch02-05

One would wonder what a lizard would be doing smoking.

One would also wonder why fish people are a thing. The answer is: A space wizard did it.

Davilorium's debut comic— the art style is something else

He's been building this world for years. The book is called Starkid666: The Eggs of Hope Vol.1 — think Toriyama character energy meets western comic aesthetics. It got the Kickstarter "Projects We Love" badge and funded in the first week. What do you guys think of the style?

PS: Still live on Kickstarter, link in the comments if you want to back it :)

What am I doing wrong on my Kickstarter?

Wielders of Aether dropped April 24th and ends in about 10 days from now. Despite ads, a mailing list, subscribers, not a single conversion. The only backers have been friends and scammers (who cancel).

At this point about 100,000 people have seen my ads. That's resulted in about 1000 link clicks. No bites. They bounce after a few minutes. I thought it was the intro video, which was 7 minutes so I shortened that to a 1 minute trailer. But nothing's changed.

I've seen worse comics from other "first timers" with similar goals get backed 100% in less than a week.

My mailing list was about 2,000 with about 100 link clicks.

My YouTube subs was about 2,000. Not sure on the data but I think 50 or so clicks.

My Twitter followers 3,000 with 50 clicks.

I have ads running on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, and Google.

I'm looking for some feedback on a comic platform idea I have.

It's a print out comic website for user-made content and marketed towards places like dentist waiting rooms where they need fresh, curated content for their magazine rack.

The main features would be a page compiler to make custom booklets out of pages you like, a quick discovery system that precompiles books for easy printing and a list of properties you can make comics of legally (It wouldn't be big IPs at first but it's still worth having.)

The restriction would be having to work in specific image sizes. This is so comics can compile easily together especially on the same page. The IP idea would likely have it's own restrictions as the IP holders would have their own requirements.

Of course there'd be ads printed on the booklets and there'd be a small subscription to remove ads. But creators would be able to print their own pages without ads or include their own ads for free. The caveat being a page would have to be public for X days or have X downloads. Contribute and you get limited paid service

This website would not be for making money. It's for hobbyists and whatever money the website makes goes towards updates and server costs. But if you are more serious about it, then it might be a good way to get noticed.

I want to hear people's thoughts on this. What works for you? What doesn't? What is a feature you'd hope for?

Beyond the Panels, My Dream to Empower Disabled Kids Through Animation & Comics ​[OC]

"Nico and the Power of Mind” isn’t just a story—it’s the spark for a bigger mission. My dream is to launch a non-profit that builds up disabled children by putting them directly into the action. Imagine a weekly series where these kids see themselves as the heroes alongside custom cartoon characters.

​I’m fighting for my life, but I’m also fighting for this dream. Check out the video to see the vision, and if you’re a creator or a fan who believes in the power of representation, I’d love your support. ✨

Looks like Cho lost that argument due to food prep time being so short! Guess it's into the belly of the beast!

In case you were wondering, you are correct. Lirens don't really worry about "consequences" too often. Those are future-Liren problems. As far as a Liren is concerned, as long as they're still swimming, the world is their oyster.

Robo 1 - Contracting Some Brain Power

Psiode engages the Mindshare Metaverse network to contract processing power from implanted "Brain Giggers" throughout NeuChicago. He warns Robo off of a brash move in favor of analyzing the data from the stolen nuclear battery.

Robo is a cyberpunk action comic series by Jesse Keppler (me), Philip Appley (Robo 1-2), Renzo Podesta (Robo 3-6), and Lautaro Ftuli (colors). It deals with themes of disposability under end-stage capitalism, identity, and purpose in a world where profit is the only metric that matters. I currently have a Kickstarter going to fund the first collection which encompasses Robo 1-6. You can find that campaign here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/moosecatcomics/robo-volume-1-a-cyberpunk-action-series?ref=7yigch
