About this project
Comic Strip Tees is a new website that will feature comics by independent cartoonists and allow you to purchase limited edition t-shirts with their artwork printed on it. Each shirt will only be sold for 7 days. Artists will receive $2 for every shirt sold.
This site will guarantee a great new webcomic everyday and allow you to discover the work of many different and exciting cartoonists. It will also give some money back to the comic community. While book sales are dropping, t-shirts have proven to be recession-proof.
The site will also feature a blog section, which will feature interviews, reviews, tips from pros and press releases.
The funds received from Kickstarter will be used to reimburse the team of web designers who built it. We began work designing this site over 6 months ago and it is finally ready to be launched.
Thank you all so much for your support!
