It seems to be #CreatorOwnedDay! Support comics/graphic novels whose artisans put their heart & souls into these books.
Remember! Sometimes creator owned books don’t make any money without the support of our readers buying our books.
Sometimes creator owned books are the dedication of a team (and/or) person who devotes time upfront without compensation.
With independent publishers they take a chance on a project by putting up the money to print a book and promote it.
It is the hope of the creative team and the publisher to make back printing costs and then actually make money after.
When a book turns a profit, it shows the publisher that there is an audience for the material and will do more books.
It is important to support creator owned projects & indie publishers because publishers are taking a chance on new material
Your dollars prove creator owned is valuable in the market and directly supports all involved in making these books happen.
