Tim Across America, pt 1! Tim visits with the New York Aspiring Comic Creators Club, a networking group for some guys who are trying to get their comics made and seen while they earn their livings doing other kinds of art. What story points do they find is easier, or harder, to get across in sequential art form? How are they publicizing their work? That and more.
Also, in Ask a Retailer, Tim talks to Matt Seneca at Bergen Street Comics, where they’ve announced that most Marvel and DC books will no longer be shelved. Why not?

I’m quite jealous of your roadtrip, it’s sounds so awesome!
Pretty comforting to hear that other artists/writers are struggling with marketing and self-promotion. I think that is one of my biggest fears as well, just because I don’t want to intrude into other people’s lives too much!
Really cool to hear that so many kids are getting into comics today too! They probably don’t read as much of the Marvel/DC ones because they have such an expansive (and expensive?) backlog. Jumping in now would be terribly confusing for some.
Besides, I’ve seen some really great talent in the Adventure Time books!
Still love this podcast by the way! Keep making ’em!
