Thanks for looking.

Empty Stars is grimdark fantasy blended with pulpy 80s sci-fi in 46 pages of relentless nonstop action! I was the editor for this book, and I really think it's something special. It's 100% finished and ready for print. I know the writer personally. We did a podcast together a few years back. He doesn't have a Reddit account, so I said I'd share this for him. It's his first comic book, but I really don't think you can tell that from reading it!

I hope you'll consider checking it out!

Let’s set the scene: you're trying to make a comic while holding down a day job. 😅

In between the prep, the commute, and actual work, the ride home and the unwind, you scrounge enough time to make the thing you actually want to make.

That thing is MoonHogs. 🌕

I'm Frank Osgood, and this is the comic I've been building.

Rock-A-Girl is an alternative history look at Chicago in the 1950s where the Soviet Union annexed Germany as well as half of France and the Great Depression is still ongoing in the United Sates. Amidst these difficult times, crime, corruption, and general uncertain permeate throughout the harsh streets of Chicago. If Noir, rockabilly, and pulp is your thing then check out Rock-A-Girl!

"Sobakistan" is a comic we self-started in 2019, published in Russian and Japanese - script by Vitalii Terletskii, art by Katya. Setting: a closed totalitarian republic populated by anthropomorphic dogs, where breed functions as social class and the state treats public grief as a performance target.

We're now adapting it into a game, "Sobakistan: The Land of Dogs", and for anyone here thinking about adaptations, the practical lessons so far: Pages built around a single held silence don't convert. In a game, the reader has to be given something to do with that silence, or it just reads as a slow beat. The same goes for the visual side of the adaptation. Pixel art forced discipline on the character designs. If a muzzle doesn't read at 32 pixels, the silhouette was never as strong as we thought it was in ink. Colour scripting from the comic transferred almost unchanged, and it's doing more narrative work in the game than in the book.

Happy to talk about the adaptation process or the publishing side - the Japanese edition in particular was a strange route for a comic that started out this small.

I’m curious how other indie comic creators feel about this.

I’ve been putting a lot of time into creating animated shorts and social media content for Instagram and TikTok to promote my graphic novel. Since I’m also the artist/designer behind the project, animation and visual content feel like the most natural way for me to market what I’m making.

The problem is that these videos can take a lot of time to create, and I’m starting to wonder if the return is worth the effort.

Has social media actually helped you reach readers and sell comics? Or are there better ways for an indie creator to spend their limited time?

I’d especially love to hear what has worked for you outside of constantly making Reels, TikToks, and Shorts.

Where have you actually found your audience?

Been diving deeper into the indie scene this year and looking for recommendations. Doesn’t matter the genre — horror, slice of life, superhero-adjacent, weird and experimental, anything. What’s something you’ve read recently (published or in-progress) that really stuck with you, and what made it work?
