Panel Syndicate
Panel Syndicate is an online publisher of DRM-free pay what you want webcomics in multiple languages, founded by Marcos Martin[1][2] to publish his and Brian K. Vaughan's creator-owned comic The Private Eye in March 2013. To date Panel Syndicate has published comics in English, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, and French, with additional languages in development.[3] The Private Eye has received critical acclaim and media attention for its role as one of the first DRM-free, pay what you want comics by creators of Martin and Vaughan's caliber.[4][5] Initially an outlet for publishing Vaughan and Martín's collaborations, Panel Syndicate is open to publishing other creators' works by using the same DRM-free, pay what you want model.[2][6]
In November 2014, Universe!, a science fiction comic book made of stand-alone stories created and written by Albert Monteys, was published on the website.[7]
In December 2015, Vaughan and Martín started releasing their second series Barrier, a planned five issue limited series, on their website.[8] It is a drama about violence and illegal immigration.
In April 2016, Vaughan and Martín released an authorized Walking Dead stand-alone story that reveals what happened to Jeff Grimes, Rick's brother, called The Walking Dead: The Alien; this story was allowed in exchange for letting Image Comics publish The Private Eye in hardcover.[9]
