This week, Nigel and Tazziii take on a common perception of comics…that there’s no money to be made in creating them. To help with the discussion, we’ve invited Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and previous UK Comics Laureate Hannah Berry onto the show.
We get into the common (mis?) conception that comics and money never meet, as well as digging into Hannah’s work on the first national survey of the UK comics industry to gain a better understanding of the challenges and ways to help those working within it.
If you are an aspiring comic creator, a family member supporting one, or just interested in learning more about the industry, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!
