I had to drop my DC titles a while ago as between the bi-weekly drops of the main books and crossovers, it became too much.
Agreed. It is sad to see shops posting that they just simply don't care, though.
I like a good mainstream book as much as many others do, but basically saying, "Batman is better and cheaper, so maybe make yours better and cheaper" isn't all too constructive.
Indie comics need time to grow and people to fight their corner.
If all you want is to see superheroes, have at it, but you are enabling an industry to just keep on pumping that out and see nothing new, real, or inspiring.
You can choose to be a part of growth. But if you aren't... π€«
So 2016 Best Picture nominee, Moonlight, wasn't competing with Manchester By The Sea for audience, but instead ROGUE ONE?
...And Little Miss Sunshine (2006) was competing with 300!
This. Is. Sparta!
I get that the indie is smaller, but if you only ever service BATMAN. You only see BATMAN.
I wrote a silly story, which is included in this collection of silly stories, now featured by the BBC.
You should go check it out!
My contribution begins on page 33.
I believe @arachnid-guy.bsky.social works/ed closely with a comics charity.

I have two thriller/horror shorts I REALLY want to find a home for.
1.
Set in the future, a ballet dancer auditions for a lead part.
2.
A farmer awakens to find his daughter missing from her bed, and blood leading to where the sheep sleep.
Would be perfect for @boom-studios.com or something...
Loved his work on Chu.

Looks like they need a copy of the book in there to complete the look!

What genius at Showmasters thought that was a good idea?
The view counter on Twitter posts makes me feel like when I added a view counter to my Geocities websites as a kid, except the view counter there was more impressive because it would take note of my consistent page refreshes.
