I think it's a good idea.

Personally, I think more creators might go for it - if the work your putting on your table is similar to your own. I know I wouldn't exactly like the idea of putting some of my more mature books, right next to an kiddie-animal comic.

Thats the only thing I could see as an ethical hurdle.

Troy were you trying to create some kind of network like this on the TAK site? I see a link to something that sounds like this idea but the link goes nowhere for me.

Ya like I said I gave it a shot and plenty of people were interested, but just not able to put the work in (myself included). Handling a large number of other people's comics - when it comes to trying to distribute to stores - is a suprising lot of paperwork! Cheifly I was hoping to get a newsletter system to at least advertise Aus comics to the respective stores, but even that requires a lot more work than I thought.

Basically for this to work we'd need to have someone do it for a living - taking commissions from our already slim margins!

I think that pooling resources is the only way to go - thus why I joined up with Local Act. The results speak for themselves there!
