Hello Guy,
If you are looking at this being a company only for blind people (Which 
I don't think it should be, just look at audible), you should just call 
yourself a distributor of comics who doesn't need them printed. I would 
need to talk to a copyright lawyer, but if someone told me they wanted 
to do that to something I wrote I would have no problem in saying yes. 
Selling my comics with no production costs on my end? :O

I would like some more amusing, not superhero comics. Also, I think the 
music is a little long, I would only make it like 2-4 bars. But I am not 
quite your target audience so take my ideas with a grain of salt.
Remember, 100 people who love your product is unbelievably better than 
1000000 people who kind of like your product.
Thanks,

Brandon Keith Biggs <http://www.brandonkeithbiggs.com/>
