Price quote
Sadly looks like at the current page count, I will not be able to sell the comic under $10. My cost for 500 books will be over $5k. I am looking at options to cut some of the art pages, to cut some of that cost. I would really like to be able to sell the books for under $10 each. Thats no including the shipping and handling/packaging costs. I'm doing what I can to make this book affordable for all.

I am willing to pay more for your art. I know u want to make it cheap but you are doing yourself a disservice most comics are above 10 but with the length, time and artwork it’s more than worth it.
10 is so cheap, don't undervalue yourself
Physical comics run higher if I was to go pick it up in store. Is there a digital option way to have an affordable offering and still have your costs covered and make you a little so that you can keep doing comics? This is the problem with keeping costs low is then artists cannot art. *hugs* let those of us that can pay more so that you can keep doing this. Maybe offer sponsored comics so I can buy one for me and one for someone else on your list of people who can't afford right now? (I'd say $15 minimum for this, plus you're signing them? like seriously charge us so that you can stay in the game, we need more you in this world, and it will help free up time so you can work on your own stuff too
I am looking at digital selling platforms. I have ko-fi but I deleted my subscription to it so I'm not sure I can offer shop items anymore, including digital downloads. I'll look if theres a digital option on my Storenvy shop, but I haven't seen anything like that yet.
I am willing to pay more
Honestly for a comic I was expecting 10-15 are you charging more for the signed ones?
No the first ones that are signed will just be an added bonus this time. They all will come with a new sticker as well. Even the unsigned ones.
I'm willing to pay any price for it, I'm just excited to get one
I'm willing to pay more than $10 if it means you not having to sacrifice art for affordability. I know that won't be everyone's opinion but wanted to share mine. You put a lot of work into this and it deserves to be published as designed.
I think I managed to work around it some by ordering a smaller batch at first, the 300 for 1st wave, then I can order another 300 after I'm caught up on orders and know how many more shipping supplies I need to re-order. I had a coupon for the books but it expired sadly lol. I will keep everyone updated.
I am willing to pay what is needed for your art in this redesigned version
