Quiet on the set…

Yeah, not many posts of late, ’cause we’re slammed with deadlines. The Image Comics book took a lot of extra TLC to get it 100% perfect (well, okay, 99.9%). I’m heading out tomorrow AM for Book Expo in New Yawk City, where, with the help of trusty companion Bob Brodsky, I’ll be hawking the TwoMorrows [...]

The health of the (niche) magazine market

Hoo-boy, things move quickly on the Internet, in ways you don’t imagine until you see it for yourself. Apparently, due to declining circulation at The Comics Journal (due largely to their decision to stop selling it through bookstore chains—a voluntary move made because it wasn’t selling that well there), rising postage rates, and our decision [...]

I spent the last two days doing nothing but poring through the US Postal Rate Changes that took place yesterday. After having to take our webstore offline for a few hours today, I’ve finally got all our prices updated.

More on Digital Editions

We’re already getting some response to Wednesday’s announcement that we’ll be trying out online editions of our mags starting in July. I’ve heard from quite a few people who say they welcome the opportunity to get our stuff in digital form, since it’s cheaper, easier to store, and more fun to read on a computer [...]
