After I wrote the first in my three-part series on publishing collectives, I received a question that deserves a much longer answer than I’d be able to do in the comments section.

Q.: Do you think that [publishing] collectives focused on a certain theme or aesthetic orientation are more effective than collectives that might not have that shared theme or orientation, but are collectives of cartoonists who want the autonomy with the motivation to also promote each other? (Not knocking collectives like that – just wondering what makes for an effective collective and what your views are.)
