Does anyone know what, exactly, Hiveworks does? They say they're a webcomic-focused comics publisher, but they don't seem to be like the old comics collectives at all, and they support comics I know have had to go to Kickstarter when they went to print, like Let's Speak English. Do they just pay for website hosting???

they have an about page that kind of describes what they do. i pay for my domain name and they provide the layout, the backend tools, and hosting. they also manage my advertising, any kickstarters i would want to run and host/run the merch store. they're great and i owe them my life for taking a huge chunk of my job off my hands
e: while maintaining the rights to my own work lol!! which is very important

FunkyAl posted:

look, i think my problem with the internet is more existential and stress related than anything. but i do also think that because it is a currently effective tool for gaining attention people overlook that it's at its core an ad, and ads have been around forever! they're still around even! and its funny you should say that bc i have actually been considering doing ads in france lmao. they seem like they like cartoon animal comics, like the comic duck comics dot world, over there! or does anyone know a good french publisher?

and computers give me a headache! don't they give you a headache? it's easier and better to read them on paper i think. its nicer to not look at things that are scalding your eyes out. thats all im saying on this i think. i'm not tryin to offend any livelihoods, i'm just saying its flawed and it kould be better. and it seems like web channels are closing up so its a good time 2 vamoose!!! imho

Doomsday, My Dear is a webcomic that began long before the horrible reality we live in today hardly ever seemed possible and features questionable british politicians reacting to a plague outbreak with opportunistic gusto and their victims.

e: the new backgrounds makes the comic have the aesthetic feel of a retro cel animated cartoon in a really good way.

audrey redpath failed to pay out bonuses and comp copies of books for an anthology kickstarter she headed for years, worked at hiveworks and did her job so badly and so carelessly most of us thought we were being treated this way deliberately and exclusively, threatened to take away jobs from comics artists dropping big name indie artists she worked with for leverage, then got hired at kickstarter as "comics outreach" despite seemingly having floated through life having accomplished nothing at her actual jobs. they are not good.
e: the locked twitter is because their apology did not include the words "im sorry" anywhere and claimed she lost her job due to a a mass of coordinated jealous, angry comic artists working together to destroy her and imply her sexuality is fake.

having experienced audrey personally, and the sheer number of people coming out to tell their stories of how audrey screwed them over. well.

Huh, I had no idea there were problems with her. I backed Oath and got it in December of 2016, though there are some 'didn't get my stuff' comments on Kickstarter, there's not too many.
Was it Oath she's screwed creators over?

why do you want to be friends so bad with the guy who screams drunken abuse at women via facebook and twitter blaming them for his lovely life. you act like its weird we know this but its because women talk about it and warn each other. what happened to your loving brain. can you get a grip on whatever is causing you to behave like this.

josh was also pretending to be a woman naked jackie and making another webcomic, the subject being "how do i make people pay attention to me again" as some sort of attempt at meta commentary on the comics community being too crowded. he set up a twitter account for "jackie" and everything, retweeting her new comics to his account until people found out it was him and he posted that it was all a "persona" he was doing. lol
