Might mess around and try to get something going for a couple pieces of this.

You get them from the printer and the e-commerce site is already created, using the details you set up when you first created the script.

Making comics is hard enough. Would be cool to streamline the production and marketing pieces as easy as possible.

I dream of the day a complete comics production suite exists.

You write your comic script, you send a share link to the artist, colorist and letterer. You send another link to the art team for them to upload to. It pumps out a print ready file. You send it to the printer.

This whole mess has been devastating to some great small publishers and indie creators. It's disheartening to see how fragile the whole comic infrastructure can be.

perhaps the best thread on this site
This is going to be a recurring thread where I'll post what all the stacked lettering files of a project look like!

(It's something many letterers have done before, not sure if someone ever came up with a name for these).
