Would you buy a FotU comic?
11 years ago
So I have been wanting to do some comics of various scenes, either written or ones specifically for the comics. But comics are expensive, and it's not easy to budget a few hundred dollars for a quality multi page comic.
I saw this site, and am considering giving it a try. Created an account, but asking here if there would be any interest before spending a lot of time planning out comic pages and looking for artists. Some are obvious, Fortuna would be one. Suggestions for others would be appreciated.

Basicly you pledge $1 or whatever you feel is appropriate to a project, like $1 per comic page. Once enough people pledge, then it gets created, and so on. I'm still not entirely sure how all the details work, heh.
As for what they will be... that I'll be taking suggestions for too. I'm not sure if re-creating existing scenes, or having all new content would be best. Spoilers can be tricky, as some of the best scenes are things people might want to read for themselves. Perhaps new characters for a comic would be good, set in the same world, and characters 'guest staring' back and forth but made so people could follow the comic and not read the stories or vice versa.
This seem like a good idea? I had considered doing it for at least a year or so now, but didn't want the trouble of handling payments, and refunding if the goal wasn't met, eating transaction fees, ect. Having a site to do all that makes it more convenient.
So... speak! Want opinions! *snaps his tail in the air with a loud crack*

This way they only pay once I actually have something to show, and if noting ever comes of it, or it's delayed... nobody is out any money.
