Extra Comics Almost-Poll

Post by Allroses »

I wanted this to be a poll, but apparently there is not that option on the CG forum.... HMMMMMM.

Anyway, as per the Friday, July 17th update, if there were extra ARHT comics for purchase would you be:
1. Totally interested and would purchase.
2. Totally interested but with no money to purchase.
3. Not interested.

[edit]
For further contemplation, in case you don't read the whole thread, is the method of distribution:
A. Printed comic book form.
B. Online sketch comic form reached through set compiled donation amount.
C. Online page released every X amount of donated dollars.

Val'Cielle - A post-apocalyptic winter, a dragon goddess, and people who aren't happy about either.
All Rose Have Thorns (NSFW) - A story about angsty, pansexual vampires, and the ghosts, faeries, and people that surround them.

I SOMETIMES have money, but only on paypal. xD
It would depend if I could save up for it, or afford it, and if your publisher would take paypal =o

I'd definitely be interested.

I'm like a 1 and 1/2... I could probably buy it if it's not TOO expensive. How many would you do? Do any involve a harp??? :D

Yea, I'm 1.5 as well. I'm interested, but buying depends on the price. I can't really offer a suggestive price because you haven't said how much we'd be buying.

I would love to buy additional comics! So, I vote option #1.
But, I would definitely prefer if those extra comics were a part of a published whole or if they where added to the on line comics.

No, I'm sorry, Nura, not at this time. :D

And for answers to other questions:
I had been picturing them printed in comic book format, probably from Ka-Blam, with the length determining the price. Most of them would probably be ~$5.00 if I went that route.
Alternatively, I was just thinking about it, Templar, AZ has a system of bonus sketch comics where the whole comic is made, and then it's ransomed. When the ransom is reached through a set donation amount, they are free for everyone to read. Thirdly it could be a page specific donation thing. Ex., Reach $20, get a side-story page. I'm hesitant about the last 2, however, because ARHT doesn't have that big of a readership, especially for the third option. I mean, wouldn't you rather pay $5.00 and get a book rather than putting it towards a single page?

I should also mention, and this is the second part of contemplation, that I would probably not be doing the art for these, unless I went the sketch comic route. I don't have an artist in mind, and there's nothing to say it would be the same artist per story, but I don't think I could reliably update ARHT and Val'Cielle AND ARHT Side-stories.

I'd be willing to buy it if they were bonuses in the published thing,
but I don't think I'd be interested enough to spend money on the bonuses themselves.
That and I'd love to see the book. :3

With that new info, I'd say yes, I'm interested in purchasing it. I would prefer it in a book, but of the other two options, I like the sketch comic idea.
