Token Comics ... Digital Comics on the Cardano Blockchain!
With Token Comics you'll be able to Buy, Sell, Read and CollectTM digital comics just like you can physical comic books!
Help Token Comics Migrate from TRON to Cardano!
Imagine being able to Buy, Sell, Read and Collect actual comic books on the Cardano blockchain! Our comics are not just covers and single pages sold seperately as NFTs ... they are actual flip-style comic books that you can only access and read if you hold an issue's NFT in your Cardano wallet! We initially built our proprietary smart contract on the TRON blockchain because Ethereum gas fees were too expensive to offer comics on Ethereum, and TRON offered much of the same functionality. Now that smart contracts have come to Cardano we want to move our project over. Your purchase of Token Comics Launch Edition NFTs will help us migrate our fully functional and proprietary smart contract to Cardano and help usher in the "digital age" of comics!
BLOODFIRE PERG JUDGMENT DAY DREADWOLF

Meet the Creator of Token Comics ... Joe Z!
Joseph A Zyskowski (a.k.a. "Joe Z") was born in September, 1966. He learned how to read with superhero comics, and declared in the 2nd grade, "One day you'll see my name in comic books!" In 1993, Joe Z pursued that childhood dream, launching Lightning ComicsTM with his brother, Steve, but after six fun filled years, Lightning ceased it's publishing activities.
In 2020, government mandated lockdowns, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, forced comic book retailers to close their stores for months ... and many didn't survive. Companies that distributed comics to retailers weren't paid by many comic book shops and distributors, in turn, couldn't pay publishers! This domino effect continued with some publishers being unable to pay printers, printers being being unable to pay suppliers or go to press (due to lockdowns), so little new product could get to retailers. Shortages of lumber caused a spike in paper costs, too, making print publishing more expensive. Covid-19 lockdowns caused serious damage to the comic book industry ... but also inspired an innovative solution.
Joe Z believes blockchain technology offers the key to survival for the comic book industry. Digital comics eliminate material costs, the printing process, distribution costs, damage caused by shipping, damage to the environment, and allows a direct to consumer model that guarantees near instant delivery of exciting, comic book content! Joe Z led a team of expert solidity programmers to develop a proprietary smart contract to mimic many of the attributes that makes collecting and reading physical comic books a fun and unique experience, in order to transform digital comics into digital collectibles.
