Happy new year!

I've posted "2021 in Review", a brief look back at my Comic Rocket progress in 2021. In case you don't read it, I'd like to draw your attention to this announcement:I'll be speaking at this year's PyCascades conference (online only) about the work I've been doing behind the scenes to modernize Comic Rocket. It'd be fun to have some of you in the (virtual) audien...

November progress report

I want to keep you informed about what I'm doing to make Comic Rocket into the awesome service I envision, but at the same time I don't want to spam you. So I'm trying to do monthly progress reports. And the Comic Rocket progress report for November is out now!I made huge changes to Comic Rocket this month. But those changes are all supposed to just quietly do their jobs, so you may no...

New Comic Rocket store

Some of you expressed interest in getting stickers and shirts and the like. So I'm launching a shop for you! It's at shop.comic-rocket.com.During the rest of November, you can use the coupon code "PATRON20" for a 20% discount. (This excludes stickers, which are about as cheap as I can make them already, and the convention kit, which is already 20% off.)Wow, this has been a fascinat...

Comic Ro...

I'm super grateful to you for that!Still, I'd like to show my gratitude more tangibly. Are there benefits you'd personally find meaningful?One kind of "reward" I want to avoid is locking away any of Comic Ro...

Welcome, new patrons!

I was so tempted to write a click-bait style headline: "I increased my Patreon pledges 72% in 24 hours with this one weird trick." The trick was to tell Comic Rocket's users that there's a Patreon here. Weird, right?For the existing patrons who haven't seen it yet, I wrote about what I've been up to lately on Comic Rocket's newly relaunched blog. I mentioned there that ...

New patron benefits: comic spotlight

edit: I've fixed the instructions below, for linking your Patreon account, so they work even if you aren't logged in; everyone can now browse all the Spotlight comics, but I'm still waiting for more of you to pick a comic before I start showing your selections on the main "Explore" page; and you can see the patron badge on comic listing pages now, but those aren't visible t...
