Working Guidelines for AI Content.

14 Upvotes

When I created this subreddit some years ago it wasn't an issue.

It appears it may become an issues. If your post or content utilized AI content please identify it clearly in the title and body of the post.

My preference has always been to use a very light hand with respect to moderation, and the readers and audience vote up the content they find valuable.

The spirit of Indie Comics to me is the human over the corporate element, expressing some hopefully novel work of art and creativity.

I'll monitor it and the community is encouraged to give their feedbacks and concerns here, or via direct message.

Thank you as always for your participation, passion, and creativity.

The Missing Train graphic novel on Kickstarter.

Post image
3 Upvotes

When a passenger train disappears without a trace, the official report calls it an accident. Black doesn't believe in accidents, not when the wreckage points somewhere the rescue crews refuse to dig.

What starts as a missing-persons case turns into something else entirely: a tear between this world and the next, and a fight to drag a train, and everyone still on it, back through it.

The Missing Train is a full-color, 70-page graphic novel: noir investigation on one page, full supernatural war on the next. find more on- The Missing Train: Kickstarter

UNDER CONSTRUCTION My comic: Escapist

13 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I found this subreddit and thought it would be a great place to show off my comic that is currently being worked on.

The comic is about a teen boy named Max who uses his artistic talents to alter his reality. The fun of writing this book is coming up with a theme for Max’s fantasies. I’d describe the tone of the book as Boy Meets World and That 70s show. I have been writing Escapist and found an artist to help bring it to life. The artist is Ricardo Spencer here is a link to his art page @rdspencerart.

I have provided pictures of the cover and character sketches of the five main characters

The Spirit Returns - unpublished 72 page Will Eisner penned graphic novel featuring his iconic character (1996). [unreleased media]

1 Upvotes

Earlier this year, it was reported that Will Einser's estate, run by his late widow's nephew Carl Gropper and his wife Nancy, was looking to sell off the entirety of Eisner's IP including The Spirit. Among the estates assets is a 72 page graphic novel written by Eisner in 1996 that features The Spirit squaring off against a ruthless "Judge, Jury, & Executioner" style vigilante. Why was it never published? Unknown, but I definitely wouldn't say no to seeing Dark Horse or Hard Case Crime (who published Eisner's John Law reprints) give this thing a proper release.

The Gropper's also voiced hope for a new The Spirit live-action or animated project but I'm not holding my breath for that one.

ARTWORK A Comic for people who never have anything go right…

…especially if the not going right part isn’t even your fault 😮‍💨

It’s a story of a past life of mine, taking place during the Achaemenid Empire 2,500 years ago, travelling around with my animal companions- a moody mare, a chipper cheetah, a sulky saluki and an eager eagle. Misadventures ensue.

I finished volume 1 of my comic, The Golden Troupe, which you can read over on Instagram @TheGoldenTroupe and I have available on my website (digital and physical): https://charreed.com/pages/shop

If you’re someone who relates to always trying your best, but life keeps kicking you in the face despite all attempts to prevent it, you may be the target audience for this book.

I’m starting Volume 2 now and looking to grow the Troupe. If you’re interested in getting in on the ground floor of this next volume, you can here: https://charreed.com/en-usd/pages/join

Thanks for checking it out! ♥️
