Black Friday Anno 1
At this writing, I’m enjoying a big Campbell family reunion, so my headspace is about as far from this naked commercialism as it can get. And even at my most engaged, I never quite shared Flo’s emotional investment in what I called “the atoms business.”
Still, I appreciate how Flo was able to translate her sales energy into Frigg as her avatar, which made these “sales pages” more enjoyable than they had any right to be. (They ran as supplements to the main comic, not as replacements for it—this one ran under a Taro and Ardaic scene.)
(Looks around my guest room, still containing a few boxes of each volume, adopts narrator voice:) Supplies did, in fact, last.
Aww man, I’d so take one of each of those books off your hands for a pretty penny but I’d be mortified to have an incomplete collection. Have you ever considered an on-demand print solution for the rest of the comic? Or is it unlikely to be worth the effort of doing the whole layout and composition of those books?
I’m kind of in the same camp. Except I’ve also discovered lately that I should try and limit the extent of my physical possessions, so … I’ll gladly have the whole thing in some digital format.
Speaking of which: I noticed that all chapters up to and including 44 are on Gumroad, for 1 dollar or more. Am I guessing correctly that the later chapters are becoming available as the rerun progresses? If yes, I think you can consider me tempted. Question though: What format are they in? The product page says how many pages and how many megabytes they are, but not which file format(s).
Just noticing that the author names on the product pages on Gumroad could also use an update…
I bought all the printed stuff you put out, so it’s not my fault!
You forgot Gravy applauding from the audience.
Noted! Thanks!
I can’t help thinking that enthusiastic applause for Frigg’s sales pitch would be more in character for E-Merl than Gravedust.
Yeah, I think we were playing against type there.
