Quick Poll: Colour, Black & White, Manga & Length!
Added 2025-09-10 12:11:58 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about comics, specifically around Manga style, Black & White vs. Colour, and Comic Length.
Right now, we release 3 western-style comics per month at 12 pages each (+covers) in full colour. That’s been working well, but as we grow (and likely transition to weekly comics soon), I’d love your input on whether to expand into new styles and formats.
Colour comics look amazing, but they’re shorter.
Black & White comics could be up to twice as long, and could later be colourised.
Manga would mean right-to-left Japanese style comics, which some people have asked about.
So here are the options:
A) A mix of everything – Variety! A mix of western & manga, plus a mix of colour (12 pages) and B&W (24 pages).
B) Longer B&W (no manga) – Keep western style only, but mix between 12-page colour and 24-page B&W comics.
C) Manga but only in colour – Mix western & manga styles, but all releases stay in full colour.
D) Keep it as is – Stick with our current schedule of western style, 12-page, full colour comics.
Important Note: This is just a measure-of-interest poll, depending on the results, I’ll look into experimenting with those styles.
Thanks,

Just a suggestion, but maybe consider 2 color and 2 BW per month, and maybe 1 manga and 3 comics to test the waters? I'm always for longer comics! I don't mind black and white and was always a bit of a manga reader anyway. I think you keep two a month in color, especially some legacy stuff, is a great balance to reach. Just my thoughts as a new fan!
