ComicsBurgh

The term "Comicsburgh" began in 2021 as a series of videos showcasing Pittsburgh comics creators and comic stores on the Heroineburgh Youtube channel, and grew organically into a group of like-minded comics creators who share the burden of costs such as vendor tables, travel, and promotion. Similar in structure to the legendary Image Comics, each creator runs their studio to make their creator-owned content. As Comicsburgh, the four creators have been active across the Western PA region, as well as all around the Midwest and East Coast at various comic conventions, spreading the word of comic book creation in Pittsburgh through interactive panel presentations and making tons of fans. The publications of Comicsburgh are available in thousands of comic shops around North America, both through the established Diamond distribution service and directly to the shop owners themselves.
