Hi:
So sometime back I had the "bulb moment" to create a webcomic
Now I know what you are thinking, "Great ! Here's another guy who thinks he's funny. Lemme guess, you cracked 5 jokes and someone laughed and called you "funny" and now you think you're the next Bill Watterson."
Actually, that's exactly what happened. I said something and a cute girl said, "you're funny" and my attention starved soul went "really ? I can has webcomic genius?"
So I read "How not to run a comic" and all those sites that told me how 98% of all webcomics fail because they lack foresight and such.
So for 2 years (yes, that incident was 2 years back) I kept collecting material so I wouldn't run out after my first strip. I marinated on it and honed my drawing skills and I have about 60 strips ready ... kinda. I have 8 of them ready to be put up. The rest are being put together. Took me forever to find a suitable medium to draw.
So do any of you guys have any advice / preference on if one should host their webcomic on their own domain or go with ComicFury / ComicGenesis / TWCL ? What works better / What has better flexibility / Any advice would be helpful !!
Thanks !
