Topics included the work that must be done after making your comic book, the difficulty in getting distribution, the importance of owning your own ideas, the retail perspective on independent comics, and… Dunkin Donuts in Los Angeles? The panelists included:

Sparrow & Crowe on iFanboy

Paul Montgomery, friend and writer on Wormwood: A Serialized Mystery showed some wonderful support for our project on iFanboy.com yesterday. Paul says:

This year, Dave, Jeremy and artist Jared Souza secured a deal with Hermes Press to produce a new storyline as a comic mini-series. I’m biased, but I love these characters and I love the prospects for “The Demoniac of Los Angeles.” I’ve already read the first issue and it’s a great concept terrifically executed.

 

Paul goes on to talk about David Accampo’s role in the iFanboy community and to ask for support. Check out Paul’s piece in full here.
