this is a brilliant and totally doable, right now, first step. but i also think we shouldnt stop there. the thing with recommendations that are just a link, a little bit of a review, your garuntee of quality, is that they dont quite break past the avg readers laziness and cynicism. that sounds harsh, but im a lazy and cynical reader - if im here to read your comic, and youre linking me to someone elses, which i cant really prove is worth the effort of navigating away and reading, why should i click? i come for your comic and i go. its unobtrusive promotion with no hook.
what we should be really doing, ideally, would take more work. i think we need to do more collaboration. guest comics, short collaborative works, maybe crossovers if you can find the right creator. thats where things become a movement, because its bringing likeminded creators together to work on projects theyre both passionate about, to contribute to eachothers projects. to put their money where their mouth is.
that said, its a lot of work. and most people working on this scene are either using whatever free time they have to haul their comic out there, or cant miss any time working on their comic to keep the lights on and the rent paid. so idk right now how to turn that into a material reality.
however, following the same principle of 'give the audience a hook, get them interested, force them to pay attention' an easier method would be for comic creators to have one or two four page skits for their comic, like ads, smth to give a good impression of the work, that they can give to a creator who wants to promote them. the promoter then posts the skit as an episode on their comic. theres still the issue there of people tuning out when they realise its not the comic they came for, but its giving people enticing content that is far more likely to hook them in than a link and description alone.
