Is there hope? (Score 1)

I can definitly see where the artist and writer of the online comic is coming from because I am one as well. For the last few months I've been holding a full time IT job and trying to create a monthly comic, and let me tell you it is not easy. I do it because I love doing it, because it enriches my life in a way that other IT work does not.
The writer does a good job of presenting the problem I am faced with, which is how do I do this full time and not live in a cardboard box with a DSL connection.
The method he brings up is an interesting one of charging small amounts of money to view an issue, much less than you would find in a comic shop. I agree that the interface would need to be transparent and would be fairly straight forward to do in something like PHP or Cold Fusion. I am still not sure if people would pay or not. Which is better to get your story read by millions of people or make a few dollars and have it read by only a handful of people? Is there any hope for this medium? What do you think?

Take care everyone
