Introducing The Collabr Projekt LLC
— Empowering a New Era of Indie Entertainment
Dear Readers,
Over the past 2 years, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of the most passionate creators in comics, animation, games, and film. Together, we’ve been building something truly special — something that doesn’t just celebrate independent creators, but empowers them from the ground up.
Today, I’m excited to formally introduce you to the idea of The Collabr Projekt LLC.
🌱 What is The Collabr Projekt?
The Collabr Projekt LLC is more than a company — it’s a movement. Formed with the mission of supporting independent and creator-owned work, we’re building a creator-first enterprise that operates at the intersection of comics, games, animation, and film.
As the parent company to projects like ICDb (the Internet Comic Database) and more, our goal is simple but ambitious: to reshape the landscape for creators by putting power back in their hands.
🤝 Our Partners & Projects
We've built strong relationships with trailblazing platforms and industry leaders who share our mission:
ICDb (Internet Comic Database): A portfolio-meets-publishing meets network hub — think IMDb + Linktree for comic creators.
ICPcon (Independent and Creator-Owned Projects Convention): An annual mega-convention dedicated to celebrating independent creators across all storytelling mediums — from graphic novels to indie games and animated films.
Panelfly.io (Partnered with Amir): A powerful distribution platform that connects indie creators directly to comic shops.
FundMyComic & Fundiverse (Luke Stone Studio): Tools that tear down funding barriers across sectors — helping indie games, comics, and films secure capital without losing creative control.
Ringo Awards: We’ve secured a partnership to make Ringo the official awards body recognizing the best of this new era of independent storytelling.
👥 Who's Behind This?
I’m proud to co-found this initiative alongside Max Hoven of Indie Comic Empire and Socko Press. Max brings industry credibility, a deep understanding of the indie market, and a powerful network of creators who are eager to see a change.
Together, we’re combining grassroots experience with strategic partnerships to create a brand that’s bold, inclusive, and future-focused.
💡 Why This Matters (and Why Now)
The entertainment world is changing. Creators no longer need permission from legacy gatekeepers. With the right tools and community, independence isn’t just possible — it’s preferable.
But for too long, creators have lacked:
Sustainable funding pathways
Scalable distribution models
Recognition and visibility
Ownership over their IP
The Collabr Projekt is here to fix that. We’re building a sustainable ecosystem that lets indie creators fund, distribute, showcase, and celebrate their work — all while staying in control.
💸 Why I’m Sharing This With You
We’re currently opening up a limited opportunity for non-equity investment into The Collabr Projekt.
This is ideal for:
Supporters who believe in creator-first storytelling
Backers who want to help build a sustainable future for indie comics, animation, games, and film
Individuals looking to make a difference with capital, without needing board seats or ownership
In short, this is a call to invest in the future, not just in financial terms, but in cultural impact.
🎯 Our Vision
We believe the future of entertainment is:
Independent, not isolated
Collaborative, not competitive
Creator-led, not corporation-owned
If you’ve been looking for a way to directly empower indie creators, help build a modern studio system, or be part of something meaningful from the ground floor, this is your chance.
