Featuring unbelievably affordable pricing on full page solicits for comics, regardless of distribution; publisher; or lack thereof – make mine INDIE is not a distribution service but an easier way to discover your next favorite indie comic book.

If you’re looking for something new, something different, something a little left of center (it just occurred to me that I use that phrase a LOT… I’ll try and do better), I think that this tidy little catalogue could be just what you’re looking for. Put together and distributed by Alterna Comics, Make Mine Indie is a new quarterly catalogue/magazine that’s going to feature works from independent distributors, artists, and writers. The inaugural issue looks to have set a standard in their layout, highlighting the work of some of the most creative talent many people have never heard of. Make Mine Indie will collect a wide assortment of subject matter, including fantasy, sci fi, and horror, give the reader a page or two to whet the appetite, and last but not least list all the publisher info and release dates.
It really doesn’t get any easier to find that one book that’s been missing in your life… They do everything but buy it for you, and really that’s kinda pushing it. For what it’s worth, after only ten pages, I’ve run across two books that I’m going to be picking up.
The Dark

Steve RAnkin is a writer researching regional myths for a book. He meets up with Fouke, Arkansas local, Karl Cooper to find out more about the local legend revolving around a Sasquatch. Steve discovers that some t hings are better lost to the unknown.

Alexandra Wagner is confined in an expensive asylum. She murdered her brother when she was a child, and has been jumping from one institution to another, thinking she’s protecting our world against monsters called The Feeders with the help of her deceased brother. Thomas Hayes is her psychiatrist, and he believes she’s totally mad.
Well, she is totally mad.
But she’s also right.

This is just the tip of the proverbial and independentally published iceberg, folks. I’ve hardly even cracked this issue open, and I’m already wondering how I’m going to narrow down my wish list to a more manageable level. Available as a free download in multiple formats, there’s no reason not to give this a look.
