How?

That's what I wanna know, what's the process? I'm getting close to finishing my books, and my comics, I want to publish it and maybe make some cash, so what do I have to do?


And if someone comes here to say "Don't sell out, Brodie!" I'm gonna get Jeff's pink converse and start kicking some ass.

I dunno what the hell you do, but if anything I'd copyright your stuff so no one steals it.

EDIT: If haven't already done so

Copyright - I thikn this goes through the gov't. Try phoning your local gov't and asking.

Publishing - Get in touch with a publishing company.

:lol: I dont think you would like to actually kick someone while wearing converse, walking in them alone hurts enough.

copy rights is best to go to a court and fill out some papers, its the cheapest. Im not exactly sure how you do that and what you have to have in order to do that.

publishing im not sure how to do, but you could try to send in your idea to other publishing companies and try to get them to publish it, thats the cheapest.

To get your stuff certifiably copyrighted, go to:
http://www.copyright.gov/register/literary.html
http://www.copyright.gov/register/visual.html

Your comics, as they are both literary and visual may have to obtain both copyrights, unless there is a blanket one you can locate.

To get published, you could always first go the self-pub route. Either hit up a printers yourself, or go the more economic way and try Cafepress, a print on demand online merchandise retailer. http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/products/productdetail.aspx?prodtypeno=97

Unfortunately my 'extensive' knowledge of the publishing world stops at commercial fiction. Best o' luck, mate.
