Right, but the trick there is getting those first customers

for that

you have to network.

no u

and if you've got an aversion to that, you're in trouble.

Webcomic readers aren't customers in the traditional sense.

You're selling advertisements to viewers.

You're potentially selling prints.

No, you're not.

I'm trying to show my mom Tim's video about the MeToo consequences for men

You're really not.

Oh my god

No one did that.

It was all patreon.

How do you even make money on web comics. Seems like the only way is to do it for free and just hope people like it.

And only the tip of the top were able to make it work.

And that they will throw money at you

Only the tip top frequently do.

No man you have no idea how much BETTER South Korea is doing webcomics

It's insane how smart they've handled it.

I mean, they also have socialism, so...

No venues even exist in america. It's laughable.

They are Asian, of court they are smart

SK is still capitalist

Stop with the shitty jokes.

Jesus christ.

Well yeah

They're capitalist socialist

Like Sweden?

South Korea's reason for running webcomics well is methodical and could be learned from

That's not a thing

Sort of more along the norwegian model but different

Only without the immigrants

The Norwegian model is just capitalism with a welfare state

Socialism is when the state takes over the market

But only by the people with the capital to get the ball rolling. And all the head honchos in webcomics of the west, are spineless jello.

You watch Tim Pool too, Beemann? 😮

Tim's correct on that one

I know.

I watch Tim Poole

One of the reasons why artists lean to the left so much is because it's actually super hard for artists to do what they do and make a decent living.
