For those who might have missed the livestream, this past Sunday I joined the latest laid-back panel discussion on J.D. Calderon’s YouTube interview series Indy Comics Explained, on the latest installment of his ongoing panel-chat gathering “Talking Comics on a Sunday Night.”
Along with me, J.D. hosted indie publishers JayDee Rosario of Unstoppable Comics, Ozzy Longoria of Gemini Comics, and Timothy B. Fling of Earth Dog Studios, plus creators Peter Breau and C. Michael Lanning. We touched on topics like the farthest distance we’ve ever traveled to exhibit at a convention (both J.D. and I said San Diego Comic-Con); what our most successful non-comic product has been, sales-wise (I said Richard C. White’s writers-and-games-masters guide, Terra Incognito: A Guide to Building the Worlds of Your Imagination); the attitude of consumers toward “bad-girl” comics (I got in a plug or two for the graphic novel Lorelei: Sects and the City); and other things related to indie publishing.
And when it came time for talking Kickstarter campaigns, I was off and running on promoting Piko Interactive’s The Legend of Calamity Jane: Box-Set DVD and Comic Kickstarter campaign—which launched on October 3rd and runs until November 2nd—and The Legend of Calamity Jane: The Devil Herself, the one-shot comic I’m collaborating on with artist/colorist Eliseu Gouveia (Lorelei: Sects and the City and the Saga of Pandora Zwieback comics) for Piko’s Virtual Comics imprint.
So now you know the basics, but to get the full experience, head on over to the actual “Talking Comics on a Sunday Night” panel at Indy Comics Explained and see for yourself!
