I was looking into self-publishing options just this week and stumbled across Lulu.com. ANd now this!! I don't even have my comics ready yet and I've already got a book draft started with an estimated price depending on page number and if I go B&W or full-color (I want full-color with the way my comics will be online, but it costs 7 times as much per page.) My main concern was Lulu being too obscure for the uninitiated, but with Universal Press now doing this, at least the name will be out there more in general. It would be cool if they added some kind of independent cartoonists buy-in to the storefront, kind of like a Comics Sherpa for cartoon books. Wow!
