After 12 years, we are saying goodbye to the Webcomic Alliance. A sad day is upon us. This will be our final podcast and in keeping with our theme of helping webcomic creators of all types, we chat about the most recent comic conventions we attended and give some input to what is working for us these days, and hopefully you can draw some ideas from our discussions. We want to thank each and everyone of our listeners for sticking with us over the past 12 years as we handled all types of personal and professional issues, especially the COVID-19 pandemic of the past two years which will have a lasting effect on how comic conventions operate.
