Nouns DAO NFTs Get Comics in Titan Comics' April 2023 Solicits

Titan Comics get into bed with Nouns DAO NFT creators for a new comic book series in their April 2023 solicits

Published Thu, 19 Jan 2023 15:44:11 -0600

Titan Comics' Senior Editor David Leach is writing a new comic book being published Titan Comics in their April 2023 solicits and solicitations, based on the Nouns DAO NFTs, to be drawn by Danny Schlitz. From the Nouns website, "Nouns are an experimental attempt to improve the formation of on-chain avatar communities. While projects such as Cryptopunks have attempted to bootstrap digital community and identity, Nouns attempt to bootstrap identity, community, governance, and a treasury that can be used by the community." I am "noun" the wiser. They also have Blade Runner 2039 and Kamen Rider, The Michael Moorcock Library, MORIARTY: Clockwork Empire, the life of Gil Scott-Heron in comic book form, and more.
