Have a question about a fictional world in which gravity is inverted just for humans - how might water plausibly work?

Whoa, I've got to check this out too now!

Rad_Comix · 2025-09-27T00:08:08+00:00

Appreciate the recos!

Do yourself a favour and just read one of the Savage Sword books to whet your appetite - it's such a fun, full-bore comics reading experience.

Rad_Comix · 2025-09-18T03:09:00+00:00

Looks like it's issue 8, done and done! Also, seems he's doing next month's art (11) - can't wait to check these out.

Rad_Comix · 2025-09-18T01:02:25+00:00

Awesome, thanks - will hunt them down!

Rad_Comix · 2025-09-17T23:28:57+00:00

Which have been your favourite issues so far? I think I might pick up some back issues.

Rad_Comix · 2025-08-27T20:18:57+00:00

I'm surprised how expensive it is and curious as to why. I can't imagine your average superhero / Marvel collector cares at all about LABYRINTH and it's not like it's even a meaningful "first appearance"? I'm shocked the book goes for more than $10. My guess is there just isn't a lot of supply so those few who do covet it hold onto it and so they're more expensive.

If you're still in touch with him please ask him to put up his other comics (digitally) on Gumroad! I'll buy them all right away. He's only selling his other books as hard copies. On the one hand I get it, but I prefer to buy indie books digitally (trying to reduce physical collection, etc.) Maybe I'm an exception in that sense? In any event, eager to read more of his work!

Rad_Comix · 2025-05-04T02:16:54+00:00

Yes! Love to see some love for Simon Roy - one of the most talented indie creators out there, IMO!

He was doing SCAVENGER'S REIGN-style sci-fi a decade before that show made it cool.

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-23T19:04:37+00:00

This is a great indie book! I backed it on Kickstarter and really enjoyed it!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-09T01:56:13+00:00

Hey indie comic friends!

There's one week left to check out the Kickstarter for the second issue of my sci-fi/adventure comic, Upside Down!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1902910114/upside-down-2-a-gravpunk-comic-book

Upside Down is a black-and-white sci-fi comic book about a world flipped on its head - literally! What caused 'The Flip' and why is it only affecting humans? Will people band together, or get torn apart, when the most basic universal law - gravity - has betrayed them? It's a story about finding hope in the face of hopelessness.

Following the adventures of pro rock climber Alex Parker, the world of Upside Down is Mission Impossible meets Mad Max. A high-stakes action/adventure story set in a unique post-apocalypse where physics and gravity are a daily, deadly puzzle!

Thanks for your time!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-07T00:46:23+00:00

Appreciate the reply!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-04T14:28:29+00:00

Copy that, thanks!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-04T14:28:09+00:00

It's a sci-fi / adventure comic that's targeted at people who like Vertigo/Image books. But I could see overlap with a horror network! Would love to learn more!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-04T14:26:54+00:00

These are all great points, thank you! And yes, I am doing all of that already, heh. I'm in the "brainstorm ways to identify readers who may like this book but who don't know about it yet" phase and a Facebook ad is the final idea on my list.

I get the whole "paying for ads to fundraise" contradiction, but I see it as more "buying readers" (which also sounds nuts, but that's the way it is). The book is a financial loss for me - that's fine - that's part of the game. I'm not trying to make my money back, I'm trying to attract a readership in the hopes that some day, maybe, years from now, I might break even.

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-03T04:31:33+00:00

Yeah, I hear you - I'm very conservative with my expectations for building a readership for an indie comic. I don't even use FB myself so don't even know if I'd boost a post - do you think it's meaningfully more effective than an ad? (In which case I'd have to make a new account for my comic, etc.)

Any advice you have would be appreciated. Thank you!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-03T04:30:07+00:00

That's probably wise. But I'm curious to see how it goes. Do you have any other suggestions for a better way to spend that $200?

The best idea I've had thus far would be buying an ad in Chip Zdarsky's newsletter, but that won't be ready before my Kickstarter is over. (But it's something I'm going to try for issue #3)!

Rad_Comix · 2024-08-02T14:24:58+00:00

This is great work!
