How to Publish an E-Book Comic Book

In the past, breaking into the world of publishing comic books meant you had to impress the powers that be at Marvel or DC Comics. Overtime though, smaller publishers began to publish their own comic books. This increased your chances of being published, but you still had to compete against thousands of other submissions. Now, with the advent of publishing e-books, you can guarantee that you will get your work published by publishing it yourself. Of the various avenues of publishing e-books, Lulu.com stands out, because it is reputable and easy to use.
