Distributing my comic - 2009/05/29 10:01 I just can't seem to find the information anywhere so I figured I'd ask here.

If I use Comic Life to put together a comic book, can I legally publish and sell it? That's all I want to know.

Re:Distributing my comic - 2009/05/30 02:27 Lucy,

I believe that's been answered before and I think the answer was, Yes you can, but someone from plasq will be along to let you know for sure

Re:Distributing my comic - 2009/06/01 10:35 I can't imagine how it would possibly not be OK, at least from Plasq's point of view. They're selling a software tool, which gives them rights over the tool itself, but not the things created with that tool. The same goes for anything created using Photoshop, Word, RapidWeaver, fonts*, whatever.

Now, if you have actual copyrighted materials in there anywhere that changes things, but Comic Life certainly can be used to create commercial works.

* Provided that their license allows the type of distribution you're looking at. For example, many of the fonts that come with Comic Life were licensed from BlamBot.com, which means that they are able to be used in commercial works. BlamBot's free fonts, however, allow commercial use only by independent comic creators (which probably covers all of us in here). Many of the fonts you find for free at places like DaFont.com do not allow for commercial use unless you make a donation or purchase a commercial license. It's best to check with each foundry about that. The same goes for any photographs or graphics that you did not create yourself.

Re:Distributing my comic - 2009/06/02 00:16 JClark and KeynoteKen are correct.

Anything created using Comic Life, the user retains all ownership (as long as the source images are the users/licensed) and can use for non-profit and sell for-profit production.

Hope that helps!

Love to see some example of what you are creating!
