The Biggest French Comics Publisher Goes Kickstarter

The Biggest French Comics Publisher Goes Kickstarter
Media Participations is the biggest comic book publishersin France. The third biggest publisher of any material. And the parent company of Dargaud, Le Lombard and Depuis.

Well, Media Participations is as vulnerable to the changing market as anyone. One bright spark there has noted how smaller French publisher Sandawe has had some success with a Kickstarter-style crowdfunded publishing strategy.

And has decided to give it a go themselves, starting in October.

Of course, Media Participations is a very wealthy company and could fund all the publications from their own pocket.

But then, why should they, when the fans will instead?
