The Comics Crowd Podcast

I totally intended to post this video update yesterday when I recorded it, but my video editor would not cooperate. Switched to an easier, less finicky app today, and here we go.

I do want to share a fully textual list of the criteria I’m using for the “Comic I Like” designation, so check’em out:

* A compelling story concept based on information provided on the Kickstarter page

* Appealing art on the cover and interior pages based on clearly visible images provided on the Kickstarter page.

* Skilled execution of basic comic crafting techniques (lettering, coloring, cover dress)

* Basic end product specs for the comic (e.g., page count, proportions, binding)

* Fair pricing of the basic comic rewards (e.g., digital and/or print copies of the comic being funded)

* A reasonable fulfillment window (less than 6 months)

* (NEW) No outstanding fulfillment on more than one previous Kickstarter campaign

Now, back to summarizing the other 18 comics that launched yesterday!
