Dave Sim's kickstarter before kickstarter! Jeff Smith, creator of "Bone": "One thing I remember doing was sort of like a primitive Kickstarter. Dave Sim said, “You should do a print, a really nice print, just 100 of them, and sell them for $100 each, and it’d be a way to get a little seed money.” And I did that, and I sold them fairly quickly! That was like $10,000 right there, and was incredibly helpful and useful."
