So…Zuda. Thoughts?

What do I think??? Why, I never thought you’d ask, sweetie!

There’s lots of thoughts out there, actually, but what isn’t mentioned quite so often is this simple truth of the internet:

CONTENT IS KING.

Allow me to repeat that, for the sake of those in the cheap seats:

CONTENT. IS. KING.

If DC Comics manages to find quality talent doing interesting work and showcase that work in a way that doesn’t scream “I’m a web design NIMROD,” the site will have worth, and hopefully be a success. If it’s cranks with Microsoft Paint, or even worse, print comics creators “slumming” in the online realm, it’s gonna be a tough road.

Everyone’s probably wise to frame the conversation in terms of creators’ rights, but creators’ rights don’t mean bunk if all they’re doing is keeping the bastard children of Rob Liefield from losing the valuable ownership of their poorly-drawn, poorly-conceived ideas.

Show me the comics. Then we’ll talk.
