When Substack got into the comic book game a few years ago, one of the first was 3 Worlds, 3 Moons. Author Jonathan Hickman spent the first year worldbuilding in public before they started rolling out stories. Because this wasn't previously established IP (like some of Hickman's other famous comic work), he had to get readers invested in these new concepts.
Love this example. Thanks for sharing Jim. Definitely helps an audience’s emergence into a world. And probably more likely to have TV/movie/book rights options.
