Who is Andy Schmidt and why is he qualified to talk about this?
Andy is a comics editor, publisher, writer, and printer. He’s worked in and excelled at almost every aspect of comics creative, production, and publishing. He’s worked for the largest of companies (Marvel) to the smallest including multiple start-ups, so his range of knowledge and unique obstacles on different scales is vast.
As a fellow creator, he’s written for comics, video games, TV and animation, and consulted on various multi-media projects. But he’s also done his own small creator-owned projects on micro-budgets. He gets it.
Andy is also an educator who has done well in comics and loves being able to give those coming up today a leg-up that he never had.
