How to Self Publish Comics: Not Just Create Them

I had never heard of Josh, or Devil's Due Press(his comic company), but purchased this bound edition to catch up on any information on self publishing. 20 years ago I was enthused to publish my own comic book, fueled by the B & W boom and by information Dave Sim provided in the back of 'Cerebus' detailing his self publishing venture, but it was shoved aside for other career choices. Now, I am coming back to self publish, and was interested in what has changed. The charm of this book, aside from being extremely current in late 2006, is that it is simple and hits all the basic bases of how to approach self publish. Included are plenty of references to places on the web to visit, or places to work with in printing, or con going. Extremely valuable is the compilation of business forms and legal documents to kick off a starter. Over all, it seems like a simplified version of Caputo's self publishing manual from 10 years earlier, and Blaylock's book is the perfect warmer to the Caputo book which is a dousing of information in a world before the collapse of the market and merger of distributors. You could easily get by publishing with just this book, the internet, a telephone, and some money.... and art work.
