Kaika: Format


For those of you who are curious about how the magazine will be presented, I'd like to outline the formats in which we will be publishing Kaika Magazine. 

E-Publication
           Our primary medium. Thanks to E-Readers and the Web, we have access to an efficient and effective distribution system. With the ability to reach every corner of the World connected to the Internet, Kaika Magazine can be accessed by a global audience, and without printing and shipping costs, we will be able to bring this magazine to you for free. 

The Physical
            Our physical copies exist in limited-run productions. The physical "magazines" will be released as boxed issues, containing the following: 

1.     All of the short stories and full-length comics featured in the E-Publication, binded separately, with their own covers and illustrations.

2.     “Random” Artist Multiples, created in limited production. These will only be featured in the boxed issue

3.     Prints/Posters of the imagery used in the magazine. 3-4 randomly selected images from within the printed matter will be blown up, poster size, for our reader’s to enjoy.




The Web
           .PDF file, distributed via direct download and e-reader applications. Entire issue compiled into a single document. All comics sent as multiples printed in back, as well as images of the artist multiples. (Potentially displayed in a similar fashion to the novelty gift ads found in the traditional publications. Tiny little advertisements)
