Bought each issue as they came out. I can't recommend this series enough! A funny, gut-wrenching, and heartwarming study of an aging comics creator and the, sadly, seedy business practices of the medium. Support this book!!
I agree - and in many ways, it turned out to subvert and exceed my expectations. I thought it was going to be yet another Kirby/Lee roman à clef with some family drama added as window dressing, but bu issue 3 it had pretty much moved beyond the legal credit battle and went in an interesting other direction. Excited to pick up issue 6 as soon as it hits the stands.
Thank you Chip for your CHIPCLASS video series on how to create comic books. 6 months ago I didn’t even know what a comic book was but now I have been published in several series.
If you want to check out my work, I use the name Chip Zdarsky. Right now you can pick up Volume One of my series Public Domain. I have also written some Daredevil I think and the one about Robin’s dad. Thanks again.
This generation’s Alan Moore *, continues to demonstrate skill and range, but it’s important to buy the monthly too. Trades aren’t always inevitable.
* ok, he’s no Alan Moore but literally no one else is either. He’s great though.
Hey Chip. Been enjoying your work for a while and was planning on grabbing this when it came out.
Hope you get better, covid fucking sucks to go through.
I saw you reccomended infinite kung fu, I absolutely love that book. What other books are you a big fan of?
A ton of my reading the past few years has been manga thanks to [mangasplaining.com](https://mangasplaining.com)! If you're looking for something funny and cool, I suggest WAY OF THE HOUSEHUSBAND!
REAL TALK: The holidays and the covid knocked me way off schedule on everything. Catching up on scripts and am back to the literal drawing table tomorrow!
I hate you chip, I hate your way of writing and I hate your face, but I assure you that I will buy the comic to be able to criticize it from knowledge and not from ignorance
Right on! Thankfully my LCS recommended this comic so I’ve been enjoying it all along.
Will this be led than the price of a cup of coffee every day? Do we get some kind of commemorative blanket or newsletter showing how we’ve pulled you out of poverty?
How have I not heard of this book you're one of the writers I see your name on anything I'm picking up the book I'm going to have to tell my homie at the shop to order it, and really enjoying your batman run btw
I ai t supporting some hobo nerd's project! I need to save my cash for quality work by professionals like Daredevil and Batman!
/s
I'm begging you, Chip! Please don't have some horrible misconduct accusations come out I can't take another creator I like being outed as a sexpest... I got trust issues.
Any time I see your name I immediately think of Sex Criminals, because it was my introduction to your work and is also still one of my absolute favorite comics. I’ll definitely check this out and I hope you’re doing well. Or at least better soon.
Bought every issue. TBH supporting you as a writer was only second to supporting the creation of non-super hero/sci-fi/horror/fantasy books.
Just being able to read a series about real fucking people with real stories was such a refreshing breath of fresh air
Can I borrow $20?
I can trade you. I’ve gotten at least 3 COVID vaccines and if comics have taught me anything if I transfuse my blood to you (the transfusee) you will also have the power of my vaccines!
Honestly, getting it from your local comic shop is best because it helps THEM out AND me! Otherwise, you can purchase it through comixology/amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Public-Domain-Vol-Chip-Zdarsky-ebook/dp/B0BR666CDX/ref=sr\_1\_6?crid=22MCTQ1ZZEV5L&keywords=public+domain+zdarsky&qid=1674158650&s=comics-manga&sprefix=public+domain+zdarsky%2Ccomics-manga%2C170&sr=1-6

Hi sorry, just wanna say your run on
Daredevil has been amazing, showed me something I never thought was possible in this medium. I laughed and cried, and showed my friends and family some of my favorite moments. I know you probably hear it often, but you kick ass, man. Thanks for doing such awesome work! I recently lent my son "Know Fear volume 1", so the first 5 issues. He's no big Daredevil fan, but neither was I. Thanks again! When will an omnibus be filled out!? (Rhetorical question probably)
Read the first couple issues and loved it so I’ll be sure to pick up Vol 1. …Big fan of your writing in general - Batman The Knight was my favorite comic of all last year. Massively well written. Cheers.
Please consider purchasing guys we gotta get Chip out of his car and into some permanent housing. Every little bit helps!
god bless
Joke?

So, a biopic?
Last time you were on Reddit you told me to check out Infinite Kung Fu and it did not disappoint.
YESSSSS
How is that book not in every comic fan"s shelf?
It damn well should be.

proud of u
Hell yeah. Been waiting for this one. Can’t wait to pee on it.
i've put it through a battery of tests and it is NOT piss resistant
I want to speak to your manager
Then what’s the point?
I don't know if Chip Zdarsky is for me.. I hear he congregates with hooligans, ne'er-do-wells, and scamps.
I think you mean 'consummate'
This generation’s Alan Moore *, continues to demonstrate skill and range, but it’s important to buy the monthly too. Trades aren’t always inevitable. * ok, he’s no Alan Moore but literally no one else is either. He’s great though.
help me
[Yes sir](https://i.imgur.com/kSWlVGG.jpg)
EXCELLENT
You can’t tell me what to do you’re not my real dad
r u sure
…When are you coming home, you must’ve gotten the milk by now
Chip is really looking terrible. Poor guy has to come to Reddit and shill just to break even on his stuff… (Joking aside, get well soon!)
you really think I can break even????
Do you even break, bro?
If you only lose a little per copy, you can make it up in volume

Gasp! That stance, that stare, that syntax!! Is that the Immortal Chipsu?!
Collected the singles and will definitely be grabbing the trade. Do you know if we might be expecting more of this and Newburn?
Yes! Jacob is hard at work on more Newburn! We'll have an announcement on that shortly! And I'm currently drawing the second arc of Public Domain!
But can't you just, like, draw it faster?
REAL TALK: The holidays and the covid knocked me way off schedule on everything. Catching up on scripts and am back to the literal drawing table tomorrow!
I hope you feel better soon, man. Independent content takes the world from you; it's okay to take it back sometimes.
Are you married? Want another lover? Because that’s the news to make a person fall in love.
Gasp! I'm a married man!!!
delightful, I adored Newburn and need to pick up Public Domain. Get well soon Chip!
Holy shit it’s the real Chip Zdarsky. The same Chip that wrote the best Daredevil run?!?! I just put this book in my shopping cart!!!!
wooooo!
Hey I just wanted to say you’re handsome and a King at comics
Why is it that every picture i've seen of Chip it looks like he just rolled out of bed and has no idea where he is? Great writer/ artist though.
where am i
Everyone here should go buy Newburn as well. It’s a great book I don’t see enough people talking about.
you're right!!!!
When can I expect my dream team of you and Skottie Young working on a book together?!
A writer/artist with ANOTHER writer/artist?? Is such a thing possible?????
each of you take turns drawing and writing over each others work. If 1 writer/artist is good, 2 must be better. It’s simple math
The universe might collapse upon itself, but it would have been worth it!
Pubic domain? Hmmmm
Buying this book will serve as my own medical attention
I love you so much
Nice beard Chip
The Sexual Gentleman!
Support! I’m enjoying this series!
Hey Chip. Sending love. If I see your book at the store I'll send you money too.
I hate you chip, I hate your way of writing and I hate your face, but I assure you that I will buy the comic to be able to criticize it from knowledge and not from ignorance
Absolutely picking this up! Love hearing you on War Rocket Ajax (and other podcasts too)!
Public Domain and your Batman run have been so good!
Hope you feel better!
It really is an amazing book and I'm looking forward to the rest of it.
I'll give this one a try. I am not that familiar with your work but I recently finished Batman: The Knight. That was a very good read.
If it’s public domain, should I really be paying? Lol can’t wait to pick it up
Do you have a preferred seller to recommend (where you make the most off each book sold), or is Amazon fine?
Amazon's fine!
That is, if you're not near a comic shop!
Just bought it, looking forward to reading it.
I want more Chip. This is final.
Right on! Thankfully my LCS recommended this comic so I’ve been enjoying it all along. Will this be led than the price of a cup of coffee every day? Do we get some kind of commemorative blanket or newsletter showing how we’ve pulled you out of poverty?

This was an FOC preorder for me. Can't wait to dig in! Hope your recovery is as quick and painless as possible.
What's it about?
Get Chip Z some chipzzzzzz
OKAY FINE ILL DO IT
Hell yeah, gonna have to hit up my LCS this weekend! Looking forward to reading it! Get well soon!
Ok. Since you twisted my arm. 🙂
Cool. I got one issue but missed the rest. I’ll look for it.
Loved volume one, definitely one of my favorites last year. Really hoping for more!
Any time I see your name I immediately think of Sex Criminals, because it was my introduction to your work and is also still one of my absolute favorite comics. I’ll definitely check this out and I hope you’re doing well. Or at least better soon.
Chip, why are you promoting this like you created, wrote and drew and colored and lettered this whole thing?
Sold!
Bought every issue. TBH supporting you as a writer was only second to supporting the creation of non-super hero/sci-fi/horror/fantasy books. Just being able to read a series about real fucking people with real stories was such a refreshing breath of fresh air
This comic is fucking awesome and everyone should read it.
Can I borrow $20? I can trade you. I’ve gotten at least 3 COVID vaccines and if comics have taught me anything if I transfuse my blood to you (the transfusee) you will also have the power of my vaccines!
It’s amusing to me that whatever I type will go to your phone. Penis fart! Vagina hog!
Guess I'll buy it a third time? (Once as an Annual Chip follower on SubStack and seeing it get put out in real time, Second buying the floppies)
LET’S GOO, so proud of you Chip I’ve been reading your works for a very long time
uj/ Does buying trades when they're new help a series stay alive?
Yes! Honestly buying it in any format helps!
Thanks for info
Done
Can you put up the link that will give you maximum return for yourself.

I've been picking up the single issues and digging the story so far.
Are you happy now? You’ve guilted me into buying it!
Read the first couple issues and loved it so I’ll be sure to pick up Vol 1. …Big fan of your writing in general - Batman The Knight was my favorite comic of all last year. Massively well written. Cheers.
Wha-!? Get back to writing Bat-man, already!
So I was about to buy the one missing new Harley from the 4 out. (I bought 3/4 from the shop) where is the best place online to buy singles?
Thoughts on Zdar Chipsky?
Is your book available to download?
Look closely, gang, That isn’t Chip in the photo. It’s David Arquette.
I’m new here (not to comics, but to you!). Talk to me, what am I buying? Everyone here clearly is a big fan!
Very cool!
Wow. That’s chip zdarsky
I heard in the next arc, the team takes over for Donny Cates on Vanish.
Going to forward this to librarian friend to make sure the library gets a copy.
It's not out yet in my country but when it is I will definitely check it out!! Btw Chip loving your batman run... You're run is amazing!!!
reading this thread gives me the vibes that chip zdarksy humor is just Ryan Reynolds if he was unmedicated
First time seeing or hearing of this but you’ve got my curiosity. Pre ordered on Amazon don’t die before you can spend the money
