ComicLab Ep 263 — 2022… Nailed it or Failed it?

At the beginning of the year, Dave and Brad made some bold predictions — involving Kickstarter, Substack, NFTs, blockchain, and more! As they bid a fond farewell to 2022, they take a moment to see how many they nailed… and how many they failed.

ON THIS WEEK’S SHOW…

  • NAILED IT: Kickstarter will back off blockchain
  • FAILED IT: Patreon will launch a Kickstarter competitor
  • NAILED IT: Cryptocurrency and NFTs will recede… for different reasons!
  • NAILED IT: Substack creators who took the signing deal in 2021 will grapple with their “Day 366”
  • FAILED IT: Comic conventions will attempt a comeback… and have disappointing results
  • NAILED IT: Paper shortages and shipping delays will continue to vex creators’ ability to create physical goods
  • FAILED IT: Because of the preceding prediction, Patreon’s base of creators will take another big jump
