COMICS 101 WHY IMAGE COMICS & HOW DOES IT WORK?

A quick chat about comics publisher IMAGE COMICS; how it's unique, why it's important, and how it works!

Thank you! Image are so illusive and leave out so many important details on their submissions page. It's hard to plan financially while having no idea what services they provide and how much they charge. This was exactly what I needed.

Best breakdown of the process I’ve seen/heard, even when speaking directly with people who’ve landed books with Image (and I’m no stranger to pitching and collecting rejection emails from Mr. Stephenson).

Maybe the most succinct explanation for this I've seen regarding Image, thanks!

Dude, this is such an awesome breakdown of how the industry works. Pretty cool that creators have somewhere to maximize their hard work. Big fan of Local Man, but I'm a new fan, so I haven't read everything of yours (yet). Awesome work, man!

Hack Slash surgical equipment makes perfect sense!

Thanks for explaining that working on a comic with an experienced artist. But this would be my first time submitting and looking around.

Thank you Tim, this is such good info. How many indie publishers allow the creator to keep ownership? Thank you

Ya Image is like my publisher I have a contract with for my Novels. They supply an editor, they help get it to the right distributors, and they make sure the book is all perfect before going to print. But I keep my Copywrites, and I do all the work on the book before they refine it at the end. They handled the shipping from the printer. All I have to do is go in and okay it with the printer once it's all uploaded and ready to go. I pay a little up front, and three months later, I get my royalties paid right to me from the printer. But the publisher handles everything for me.
