Print versions of your comic?
Questions

Has anyone here had their comic printed? I want to make physical copies of mine and could really use some advice from people with more experience than me. How did you find a printing service with a good reputation? Any other tips for making sure everything turns out looking nice?

Who else suffers with this weekly update thing ruining the pacing?
