For the last year, I’ve been working on the new “Love and Capes: The Family Way” series, and selling small print run single-issues at conventions while IDW will collect them in trade this summer. But, conventions are obviously on pause, so I figured out something I could do to provide new content to comic shops.
Working with Jones Printing Services Inc., here in northeast Ohio, I can offer tiny print runs of entire six issues of my new “Love and Capes: The Family Way” and sell them directly at a wholesale price of $2.75 for a $5.00 comic. (Creators, if you're interested in something similar, reach out to them, too.)
Also, because of the way we’re doing it, we can customize the covers, too. So, if you would like, I can put your logo on the issues as a [STORE NAME] Exclusive, too. I’m calling it the “Local Heroes” edition, because you’re all heroes to me for staying open in whatever way you are.
(And, I can also make available my Kickstarter-funded Warning Label trade paperback at $10.00 for a $25.00 retail book. It was never offered through Diamond.)
Now, I do have to gang the printing together; so, what I want to do is take orders through noon on Friday, April 17 and start fulfilling them the week after.
If you can pay up front, you can order through my Squarespace site.

Password: CORONASUCKS (and use that password to clear the shipping cost, too)If you need terms, you can order through my Google form.

In all three cases, we’ll figure out shipping based on the order size. I don’t have a good way of managing that online. United States only right now.
I hope this helps a little bit! Stay safe, everyone!
