Blueprints

I’ve been thinking about ways to promote indie comics. Perhaps if we could put together our own "Idol" competition for comics. We could get a lot of publicity for the competitors. It would give us a chance to talk about what we like and what we don’t like. We could establish some minimum requirements. These standards would help define when the aspiring maker was ready to compete. I think it would inspire comic book makers.

FCBD Well 2012 is nearly here and already the big publishers have got their full line up for Free Comic Book Day coming up Saturday May, 5th 2012. This got me thinking, what’s stopping us Indie Comics makers from promoting our books? If we got together and each submitted 4 to 8 pages each, then grouped the pages by genre. We could print our own books and give them away at local comic book shops.
