I'm Lord Max Hoven - a comic creator, film producer, and entrepreneur. I own/manage Hoven Crow Entertainment and it's publishing imprint Socko Press. I'm also co-founder of ICDb (Internet Comic Database).

I co-wrote the best-selling and critically acclaimed comic series' IT EATS WHAT FEEDS IT (Scout Comics), LIQUID KILL (Whatnot/Massive Publishing) and OUR LOVE UNREST (flagship title of Socko Press). I also produce independent films (primarily foreign and low budget horror/thriller/sci-fi) such as TAPAK (exclusive to Atrangii Network) and HALFPACE (streaming on Tubi, Amazon Prime, and Gemplex).
I make YouTube videos focused on the "business side" of independent comics and feature films. I teach traditionally published and self-published comic creators how to become best-sellers. Hit me up.

I had a discussion with @NyobiComic yesterday who had legit and reasonable concerns regarding submission fees for my new publishing line. Original plan was to use fees to offset printing and marketing expenses, allowing me to give creators gross profits instead of net profits, ensuring revenue for all published creators, thus solidifying benefits and giving more merit to the winners. However he and others feel this essentially scams the losers who enter the contest with false hopes; and I should stick to standard net profit business models used by other publishers. I leave it up to the poll. Vote!
