Why do comic creators self-promote all the time?
Because we have to.
Even working with a publisher that's supportive, press only goes so far. The rest of the success falls on the shoulder of the creator rallying their fanbase.
So here's mine. I'll RP yours.

Listening to the The Expanse audiobook and rotating in my mind the idea of doing a comic where comm links and who is broadcasting to who is an important aspect of the plot.
Would at the very least be a fun little lettering exercise.

Contrast this with Shirley Jackson:
“The actual act of taking pen to paper…occurred on snatched time, in common spaces. Jackson’s children recall her writing in the middle of baking, perched on a kitchen stool or wedged at a folding table in the dining room.”
Which takes the greater discipline?

as long as they're *professional* when they kidnap your neighbors and their children, then everything's just fine.
Q: The demand was to get ICE and CBP out. To replace Bovino with Tom Homan...do you think that's a satisfactory change?
TIM WALZ: "I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt. ...My hope is that Tom Homan is different...that he is a true law enforcement professional."
