I'm creating my first comic. I've seen hundreds of videos, doing some due diligence. This video has been leaps and bounds more helpful than most. Thank you

This was awesome, thanks!

This info is really helpful. I am going to do more research on this so I can try to launch a comic book miniseries of my own. All I need to focus first is writing and drawing the ideas first, and then get help from Kickstarter.

Indiegogo is way better for comics projects. It's many people's impression that on Kickstarter you'll only do well if their keyboard warriors personaly like your project, and often not even then. Do yourself a favor and go with indiegogo.com/
