What Happens After Kickstarter? The Problem Indie Comic Creators Face - Video

???? What Happens After Kickstarter? The Future of Indie Comics Starts Here ????

What if the biggest problem in indie comics isn’t talent but infrastructure?

On this episode of the USDN Podcast, we sit down with Saurabh Bhatia, founder of Comix.one, to break down a bold new vision for indie comics; one that goes beyond crowdfunding and into a full creator-driven ecosystem.

After launching his own Kickstarter comic, Saurabh experienced firsthand what many indie creators face: momentum disappears after funding ends. The marketing slows, discoverability fades, and creators are left to rebuild their audience from scratch.

???? So what if there was a better system?

In this conversation, we dive deep into:

???? What really happens after a Kickstarter campaign ends
???? Why indie comics struggle with long-term visibility
???? Building a full ecosystem for creators—not just a platform
???? Digital + print-on-demand distribution
???? Integrated crowdfunding + fulfillment
???? Creator subscriptions and recurring income models
???? Live selling, streaming, and fan engagement
???? A new comics economy where creators, shops, and media all benefit

This isn’t just a conversation about comics...
This is about building the infrastructure behind the indie comics movement.

If you’re a comic creator, Kickstarter backer, or fan of creator-owned storytelling this is a must-watch.
