The Fallacy of “Comics Are Dying”I don’t have my head in the sand about the state of the comics industry. It’s not going gangbusters, for sure. Times have been better. Times where we didn’t need Funko pops to keep stores afloat or 400 variant covers to boost sales.But to say that comics are going to suddenly disappear from the face of the earth is a fallacy. There’s always going to be room for the medium. It’s too accessible of an artform to go away entirely.That’s not to say that what we classify

Long Live the Floppy

Why cold, hard paper comics aren’t going anywhere…Reading ExperienceI mentioned last week that I really love the experience digital provides. It allows me to see everything huge and backlit. Sometimes with amazing resolution. It all makes the art pop…with one exception: two-page spreads.I’ve yet to find a good way to read these in digital and their impact is completely squashed in digital. But in print? It’s an amazing tool to do some really creative things.It’s also the way these books are meant to

Happy February! Time is flying by, isn’t it? Before we dive into this week’s topic, I have a question for you…Thanks for that! Now, to the business of the day.I Prefer Digital ComicsIt’s blasphemous to the comics gods, I know. It doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy a good floppy or the fancy magazine-sized version you get from DSTRLY or DC Black Label. They look great and I love the ritual.There are just too many advantages to digital copies.In fact, I’m a big part of the problem. When I have easy access to

While procrastinating on these upcoming projects, I’ve made a MCU-inspired timeline for Pesto Comics in 2024. I’ve left the moonshot projects, particularly ones relying on government grants, off the timeline. Even without those, this is pretty ambitious. All of these projects are in progress, so I feel confident we can deliver as expected. I kept the windows open to seasons, like “spring 2024” to allow for a bit of wiggle room.Let’s go through the projects and others initiatives for the next 12
