So: if you are making a comic, we would like to see it. There is no charge, and there is no paid placement in the newsletter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is the whole process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="send-us-a-link"&gt;Send us a link&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:info@thecomicblast.com"&gt;info@thecomicblast.com&lt;/a&gt;. One email, with a link to the campaign.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A Kickstarter preview link is fine — better, in fact, than waiting for launch day. So is a Zoop or Indiegogo page that is not live yet. If nothing exists yet but a date, send the date.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Kickstarter, Zoop and Indiegogo: what the three platforms actually do differently</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/kickstarter-zoop-indiegogo-comic-crowdfunding/</link><pubDate>Sat, 12 Sep 2026 09:00:00 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/kickstarter-zoop-indiegogo-comic-crowdfunding/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;People ask us why we bother watching three platforms when Kickstarter is the one everybody names. The short answer is that a comic book campaign behaves differently on each of them, and the difference is not cosmetic — it changes what your money buys and what the creator has to do to get the book printed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="kickstarter-all-or-nothing"&gt;Kickstarter: all or nothing&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kickstarter campaigns set a funding goal and a deadline. If the campaign does not reach the goal by the deadline, nobody is charged and the creator gets nothing.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Privacy Policy</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/privacy-policy/</link><pubDate>Sat, 12 Sep 2026 00:00:00 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/privacy-policy/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Last updated: September 12, 2026&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Comic Blast highlights indie comic book, graphic novel and manga crowdfunding projects. This page explains what happens to personal information on thecomicblast.com.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="what-we-collect"&gt;What we collect&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When you sign up for the newsletter.&lt;/strong&gt; Your first name, if you give one, and your email address. These are held by &lt;a href="https://acumbamail.com/" class="link-external" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Acumbamail&lt;svg viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="1.5"
 stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false"&gt;
 &lt;path d="M11 4H5a1 1 0 00-1 1v10a1 1 0 001 1h10a1 1 0 001-1V9M12 3h5v5M9 11l8-8"/&gt;
&lt;/svg&gt;
&lt;span class="sr-only"&gt; (opens in a new tab)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, our newsletter provider. You will get an email asking you to confirm before anything is sent, every issue has an unsubscribe link, and nothing reaches Acumbamail unless you submit the form yourself.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When you email us.&lt;/strong&gt; If you write to &lt;a href="mailto:info@thecomicblast.com"&gt;info@thecomicblast.com&lt;/a&gt; — to submit a campaign or for any other reason — we keep what you send so that we can answer it.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When you visit this site.&lt;/strong&gt; Nothing. There is no analytics on this site, no advertising, and no cookies are set by it.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like every web server, ours records the address of each request, the browser making it and the time. Those logs keep the site working and secure.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Please confirm your email</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/please-confirm-your-email/</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 Mar 2025 21:47:42 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/please-confirm-your-email/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Thank you!</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/thank-you/</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 Mar 2025 15:08:51 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/thank-you/</guid><description/></item><item><title>About The Comic Blast</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/about-the-comic-blast/</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Sep 2022 04:38:22 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/about-the-comic-blast/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Comics</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/comics/</link><pubDate>Mon, 05 Sep 2022 03:53:20 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/comics/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Contact</title><link>https://thecomicblast.com/contact/</link><pubDate>Sun, 04 Sep 2022 01:46:56 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://thecomicblast.com/contact/</guid><description/></item></channel></rss>
