Well I tried with downloadable comics for Subversive, Eden (check it out HERE) but on the whole I'm not sure it really worked. About 30 people downloaded it (and thanks to YOU if you did) which is nice, but i don't think I even make a few dollars out of that after all the costs are done. Shame, Subversive was a great little comic I thought, but it was worth a try.
So it leaves me wondering any other ways of releasing comics online. I have the next one ready to go, a 26-page comic called Ass Munket, and a good few more waiting in the wings. These are comics I don't want to release in paper form, I think they're better suited to trying out the onlineyness. I guess my next option is to put the comic up online as a viewable web page, and ask for donations if people have enjoyed it. Like bands are doing with their music. That way some people get it for free, some pay a contribution if they want to.
What does anyone think, would you contribute if a comic was up like this? Or do you think there are better ways of doing it? Opinions please!
thanks ^_^

ps this week and next I'm drawing up my Count Von Poo scripts for Toxic comic. On the whole they've been very welcoming and allowed me to do what I want with it, which is always nice. Though some things they have asked me to reign in, such as things like this.

aww :(
