Before Mayke Entertainment, we were Arclight Comics! Tune into the re-release of The Arclight Podcast and get insightful tips, info, and advice on how we make comics. We shared everything we learned from 2009 to 2016. Learn how we branded our company, handled legal issues, character design, story development, and more!

Inside Episode 012: We cover one of the most important, fundamental steps to protect your comic project and to present your business’ infrastructure: contracts and agreements.


Key Takeaways
  • Value your business/project/company and also the friendship enough to protect them.
  • Established good communication with others, what their roles are, and their responsibilities to the company by using agreements.
  • Use contracts – it will save you time, money, energy and most importantly it will save the relationship (friendships).
  • Learn to have integrity, transparency, and humanity when running your business/company/project.
  • Do not use contracts to hold onto other’s ideas as hostage. Learn how to do more of what works without the ideas you have under a Work-For-Hire agreement. As the visionary, you need to come up with your own ideas no matter what the agreement/contract says you have a right to use.
  • Be a machine of ideas and get into the habit of creating more of what works.
  • Remember, the Google search engine is your friend. Use it. Do your research on contracts and agreements. Nobody can be a professional in everything; however, there is no excuse why you cannot try to research something to better your business and project.
