In my last blog, I explored my competition in the world of comics journalism. There are a couple organizations that have established themselves or are close to doing so. There seem to be some freelancers, too.
But there is one problem with their journalism: presence.
My news, if everything would go according to plan (which it won't), would have a big social media presence. I would try to spread it once I got my feet on the ground. That way I could open the door for people to see and consume comics journalism. It could even help my competitors a little bit. I'm not interested in business politics, so helping my competitors a little bit wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to me.
Also, the other comics journalism website I explored was great. Free access to stories and good looking comics. The problem, however, as I saw it was that it wasn't interactive. It's just a comic page and then you hit next and it moves to the next comic page.
I'd want mine to look more like Marvel's online comics.
Where you click next, and the page zooms to the next text box and appropriate picture. If users don't like that way, though, they could opt out for the page-by-page option. I would want mine to be as interactive and enjoyable as possible. I don't want it to be a comic book with news instead of fantasy. I want it to be an experience.
