In part one of our behind the scenes look at the comic industry, Keith talks to Comix Tribe publisher Tyler James and Scam writer/artist Joe Mulvey.

In just over a year Comix Tribe went from mailing comics directly to retailers to have two successful Kickstarters, distribution through Diamond, and digital offerings through Comixology’s Submit program.

Tyler and Joe talk about the business of marketing independent comics including crowd-funding, advertising and connecting with retailers. What they tried that worked and what they learned from the rest.

Put your headphones on and settle in for an hour of comic talk from two guys who just spent a year in the trenches of small press.
