How To Buy Comics: A Beginner’s Guide
There are signs everywhere the demographics of comics readers are at the very least changing, if not finally being revealed as more diverse than popular wisdom has previously held. With comics like Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Rat Queens, Lumberjanes, Saga and more dragging new readers into the fold by their collars, one of the things we’ve often been asked for at The Mary Sue is some pointers on how to get started buying comics.

Almost seven years later, the company generates roughly $400 million a year and was recently named by Inc. magazine as the fastest-growing private retail corporation in the U.S. StubHub has been rumored to be a purchase target of Internet auction giant eBay.Operating as something of a customer-service enforcer among fans, StubHub derives its profits not from markups but from percentage fees it charges to facilitate transactions between fans. Individual sellers pocket the profit (or sometimes take a loss) as secondary inventory grows and market forces shift supply and … [Read more...] about For StubHub and the like, playing second fiddle pays
Twitter now worth $1 billion
That was the message underlying Friday's news that Twitter has lined up $100 million to finance its operations while founders Evan Williams and Biz Stone plot ways to make money off one of the Internet's most popular communications tools.The investment values the 3-year-old company at $1 billion, even though it has yet to generate any meaningful revenue, let alone profits.Twitter itself didn't provide specifics about the size of the investment, saying only it involved a significant sum. Two people with knowledge of the negotiations confirmed the amounts to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the parties had agreed not to announce the specifics.Williams and Stone declined an interview request.The latest stakes were sold to three of Twitter's existing investors -- Benchmark Capital, Institutional Venture Partners and Spark Capital -- and two new shareholders, Insight Venture Partners and T. Rowe Price.San Francisco-based Twitter had previously raised $55 million, with … [Read more...] about Twitter now worth $1 billion
