Go, Read: Scott Kurtz On Mark Waid’s Digital Efforts

It looks like the longtime cartoonist and webcomics advocate Scott Kurtz and I agree about writer Mark Waid's digital efforts: the fact that a name comic book guy is making an attempt to reach digital audiences in a way that doesn't privilege existing financial set-ups is a potential big deal. I think Kurtz also has a point that there's a big premium on quality right now with those efforts, that there's enough material from which to choose that people are going to gravitate to whatever effort speaks to them artistically. I know that sounds super-obvious, but there was a time when the orientation might have trumped the concept and I suspect we may be past that cultural moment.
