I should have my first 4 page comic in a few weeks

[@MattGarveyComics]

That’s awesome news, man!
Congrats!

[@anishpatel9313]

Hi Matt, great videos, really helps. quick question, do you leave your out even over night or do you back it up every night then set it up the following day? Thanks

[@MattGarveyComics]

Great question mate. Make sure you take you’re till and anything valuable back with you. But at most con here in the uk anyway, it’s cool to leave your stuff on the table over night/ just flip your table cloth over covering your comic and you’ll be ok. Most venues have security 👍

[@r.a.bcomicscollectibles7732]

[@Alexanderbendo]

What's the deal with fan art? We've all heard its illegal but when you go its all over the place.

[@MattGarveyComics]

Sound like the start of an episode of a Seinfeld?! 🤣
