On the first (non) official day of summer, we thought we'd break from the bbqs and beer shenanigans to give you a few updates with the goings-ons of all things Bigfoot.
Update #1: About a week or so ago we met with a local offset printer to discuss all things paper-related. Why paper? Well, in this day and age the buzzword is digital, but there's something to be said about holding that copy of a comic in your hand. An offset printer specializes in multiple copies.
Update #2: We purchased our first ever UPC code. What's the UPC code? Simply put, it stands for "Universal Product Code." Basically, if you want to sell a product (comic book, coaster, glassware, etc.) you need a way for it to be tracked electronically (some places won't even give you the time of day unless they have a way to track it via computer.) That's where the UPC comes into play. (For an even more in-depth... (boring)... analysis go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Product_Code.)
Update #3: We're working on a press release. The goal of a press release is to give as much info (in as little a space) as possible. Once B:SOTE is ready for release, we'll submit a press release to any (and all) comic and Bigfoot-related sites with the goal of spreading awareness. (Here's an outdated, but still interesting, archive of various press releases... http://www.comicsalliance.com/press-release-archive/)
So that's it. Three updates and a couple of links.
But what does it all mean?
It means we just hit three important milestones for getting our ducks in a row. Paper, Processing and Press.
This book is happening.
Stay tuned.
Have a good one,
Josh S. Henaman
