Hey gang,

My friend Shawn Pryor (PKD Media/The Black Box Podcast) turned me on to a new comics site by the guys behind Discount Comic Book Service and In Stock Trades.

It’s called My Didigtal Comics.

It’s a print on demand service where you the creator set your own cover prices and get 70% of each sale. 70%- that’s huge!

The site and service are pretty new, but will be growing rapidly. DCBS and it’s sister store InStockTrades.com have got a huge customer base and are very indy friendly. They work great with independent publishers through special price discounts to thier on-line/retail customers, special promo offers (Dave did free sketches for Bushi Tales #3), and their First Light project which helps to shine light on new comics, publishers, and creators.

For more info on DCBS, In Stock Trades, My Digital Comics, or First Light contact Zack Kruse or Cameron Merkler (the head honcho of DCBS).

And speaking of Shawn and My Digital Comics, you can order PKD Media comics there!

This week Shawn and his co-host Jon Carroll invited me and Jetta:Tales of the Toshigawa creator Martheus Antone Wade to be on their upcoming podcast The Black Box. We talked about self-publishing, pros and cons of Diamond and alternate comics distribution options, digital comics, the Memphis Mafia, M.C. Hammer and more. As soon as I have an air date for it I’ll post it here and on my site.

Stay “tooned” here for more info on self-publishing, print-on-demand, and Nicki’s new Web-Wednesday columns about using the internet to promote you and your comics.

See ya Monday-

Lin
