Buy comics from indie creators from across the globe through a marketplace!
Welcome to PodCultHQ‘s exclusive podcast featuring people in the comic book industry who are making an impact with what they created… It’s time for… “Whatcha Doin’ in Comics?“
For episode one, I spoke with Saurabh Bhatia about his comic creator marketplace Comix that can be found online at Comix.one. The creator from Australia has developed a unique strategy to gather creators from across the world and allow them to showcase their work in order to reach a global audience. This forum is ideal for indie comic book creators and publishers to help them increase their exposure.
For a better understanding of Comix and its origins, Saurabh lays it out well in detail at Comix.one…
Our Story:
We are a platform for the creators and by the creators.
In 2017, I was working on my first comic, which was part of an anthology.
While it was a great time, closely looking at how Kickstarter worked made me realise, how flawed the whole process is.
That was the genesis of the idea for Comix. Not only did I see deficiencies in the current process of how comics are brought to life, I saw a lot of ways in which the community as a whole could benefit from some new tools.
Our Mission:
We will always remain an exclusive platform for the Indie community. We want the Indie creators to be in control of their own destiny! We want to build powerful tools for Indie creators and fans alike. Become an end-to-end ecosystem for Indie comics!
How we’re different:
We’re bringing some fresh thought into how the Indie comics will go into the next generation. No, we’re not talking about the NFTs or blockchains, we’re not into any of those things. Started by an Indie creator, we have walked a mile in the creators shoes. We have great empathy for our creators and will always keep them first. We’re because of them and not the other way round.
Though we are based in Australia, we have a global outlook and welcome everyone from around the globe on our platform.
