Babies, I haven't released the comic anywhere else so one of you leaked my comic. I am so broke and economically damaged, this comic was my attempt to improve my situation and with paypal doing its thing to us Mexican users and now this, I'm screwed. Nobody's gonna buy the comic that took me months of hard work cuz of that leak.
Guys, I need to know I can trust you, we're a small team here. Or so I think... I'm really torn rn.

So sorry to hear Mark. I'm here to support you, I don't know why anyone would do this.

Unfortunately it's best if you keep all content critical to your livelyhood out of here (even to our detriment). Even if the majority of supporters are loyal and wouldn't leak it, all it would take would be one of them sending it to a friend they believe can be trusted, and that friend posting it somewhere online. I think anyone here who really enjoys your art and supports you would be fine with that.

I'm so sorry Mark, I knew I saw the cover image of your comic on U18chan but I didn't know they had the whole comic. I heard about how things in mexico were getting too. I wish I could help more.

Well it wasn't me and I really feel bad. Intellectual property rights should be respected.

I'm really sorry to hear that this happened, it must really suck :(

I am sorry about that. Especially, as I know customs holding the shipment for several days, prevented you from receiving it in time. So, you were not able to sell it at the convention you went to and as a result you really needed to sell it to regular users even more so. I mean without the convention sales you needed the regular sales just to recoup the production costs for a physical book. I am really sorry that happened to you.

What can I say other than that really sucks and disappointing that one your fans did it to you :(. I can honestly say there are a lot of good people out there. People who are legitimately want you to do well and succeed. We are rooting for you.

I dont do that stuff. I know you work hard on your comics. You're a great artist. I would never do anything like that. It's disrespectful to artists.

If we find out who did this, we should be sure to black list them on every site we can and remove as much as a platform as possible for them. I'm so sorry, big bear. *hugs* I hate people, sometimes. You busted your ass on that and its not fair or right.

I dont pay enough to get access to the dropbox so can't look at the comic but is it possible that you add a few "extra" pages and then so that the leaked version is incomplete? just a thought

I'm on a Dropbox/Drive tier but I haven't set up access with you yet so it wasn't me, not that I ever would. Your art is your livelihood. There will still be people who want to buy the comic even though they can find a leaked version, because people want to support artists. Perhaps you can make the print copy really high quality and charge a premium for it? Include some bonus content in the print copy that isn't available online?

The physical copy gets an autograph and a doodle but I haven't printed the English one
