So... here's a truth of making comics that a lot of people don't really seem to know.
The people who succeed in comics are the people who absolutely love making comics. They love making comics so much that even if the readership is small, they'll still make them. They've usually been making them for years.
You know Emma Vieceli who makes "Breaks", one of the most popular comics on this site? She started out like... doodling comics on just any old random paper and using ink flicked at doilys for screentone patterns, and photocopying them out as crappy little zines to share with friends and family. She had none of the tech, she had no big audience, she just loved making comics. She succeeded because she just made comics for years and years, built an audience, made friends and contacts, got good at making them and learned where her best areas lay. She's worked on so many comics and the early ones probably were only read by a handful of people.
If you want this comic to succeed, you need to find the fun in making comics. You need to absolutely LOVE just the act of drawing out your panels "oh boy, okay we're going to go from this long shot and then the next panel zoom right in on the face with a low-angle shot for impact. What shall I do with the background? Oh hell yeah, flame pattern! This is gonna be rad!" That's what all the pro comics artists I hang out with are like. They're not just nerdy about their IP (in fact for a lot of them, they'll talk in terms of their "current comic" and comics they'd like to make in the future in different styles and genres), they just are absolute dorks about things like panel structure and colour palette and things. A lot of them would make comics for literally nobody, they just happen to have been making comics because they like it for so long they accidentally got really good and people started giving them money.
If you only care about the IP, but don't love making comics, you need to look for another way to sell or pitch it. Comics are incredibly labour-intensive and require a huge amount of motivation, so if a handful of comments and some likes isn't enough to spur you on for several hours drawing next page or episode, it's not realistically gonna work out for you.
