NIX COMICS FUNDRAISER
Last year I began what I’ve called the “Nix 2024 Fundraiser.” It’s basically just an attempt to divorce myself from the drama and expense of crowdfunding platforms; I’d rather go at my own pace, use my own voice, and not give a cut to corporations that are increasingly dubious in my eyes. I doubt I’ll get the same response as a Kickstarter campaign, but what the fuck do I have to lose by trying?
Part of my plan is to proceed in phases. Small goals that can be achieved with a fluid structure and limited individual stress. Phase One of my plan was to create a new website to run the sales part of the Fundraiser. It cost me $216.40 to set up nix2024.com, which I hoped to make back by selling art and discount back issues. It was my plan to get Phase One done by the end of January.
I suppose that part of the plan is more or less worked. I ran a 60% off back issues sale through the first part of the year. I made back $141.50 of my $216.40. Not ideal, but also not the end of the world.
STUFF IN THE WORKS
2024 Subscription Drive:
Phase two of my plan is to open pre-orders for the 2024 Nix Comics publications. I don’t like launching such things until the books themselves are basically ready to go to print, which they aren’t. Watch for collected trade paperbacks of older Nix Comics Material as I retire the back issue catalog. Also watch for new zines like the Tales from the Crate record collecting zine and new issues of Out of Time and How to Collect Comics the Nix Way.
Phase three? That’ll be new full color collaborative comics. Knock on wood we get there this year!
Unexpectedly, I was hit with a Phase 2.a. The Herbert Cooper Gallery is a new non-profit art gallery here in Columbus, located at 74 Parsons Avenue. The Gallery has opened up a room full of local artist/vendors including Nix Comics. Right now on display are back issues, some of which are my final copies, part of my Sketchbook Picture Sleeves catalog, and various pieces of original art by myself and Nix Artists. My hope is this will help replace the gap left after closing up the What the Rock?! space a few years back. Grand opening is Saturday, February 3rd from noon to 8pm. The Reception for this quarter’s main attraction, Rob W. Jones is 6pm to 8pm, which is when you’ll likely catch me there!
2023 WRAP UP
I didn’t forget! My tradition of sharing my annual Revenue and Expenses continues. I’ll say this though, it was another weird year. I spent half of it looking for a decent day job. (I ended up with a great one at Columbus State Community College in the grants department) That would ordinarily result in more comics, but I’ve also been dealing with some health stuff for over a year. Sciatica resulting from a bulging disc has left me in states ranging between mild distracting pain to bed ridden. I’m taking gabapentin for relief, which leaves me dopey and drowsy. The end result is that all I created and published last year were three of my Nix Singles poster Zines. I did manage to do three shows (SPACE, CXC, and the WFMU record fair) Basically, I ended up in the black, but revenue was mostly based on old stuff.

RECORDS LISTENED TO JANUARY 2024:
I’m going to track and post the records I listen to every month. I did this a couple of years ago, and while I don’t know if anyone cares all that much, I think it gives a good overview of what I consider the soundtrack to Nix Comics.
Most of the record choices are random. I walk up to my collection and grab a record without looking too hard. For 45s, I’ll often grab a stack resulting in a run of a certain artist (Suzi Quatro this past month, for instance.) A couple of times I did deep dives: Listening to all of my Blasters records and all of my Norton records Rolling Stones-Covers Juke Box singles. I wish I could say that those deep dives resulted in deep thoughts, but honestly they just kinda elicited a “fuck yeah!” from my brain.
For what it’s worth: I’m defining “record” as the whole package, a boxset or double LP or whatever is just considered one record. I’m defining a “listen” as one pull from the shelf, even if I play the record multiple times. I only count it a new listen if I reshelf it and then pull it again on a new day. Dig? Cool.
