On Twitter yesterday, I asked for people’s stories of discovering Comic Rocket and I really enjoyed the responses. So I’m sharing them with you!

Miluette (@miluette), of Millennium and Lovefeast:
- I knew about it when it was Serialist and I was still sorta updating my comics, but I don’t remember how I found THAT… [ed: probably from this post during Serialist’s private beta in 2009!]
- I was really big on putting my comic links on any somewhat useful-looking site though lol
- This is one of my favs; it’s really useful without being intrusive. Truly good.
Josh Triplett (@josh_triplett):
- Well, you see, there was this thing called Serialist I worked on…
edit: In late-breaking news, here’s a bonus story from @remeranAuthor, of Flavor Text:
- @remeranAuthor: I found comic rocket because I met one of your co-founder’s college professors.
- @mycomicrocket: Neat! Would that be Bart Massey, then?
- @remeranAuthor: That’s the one! He squinted at me for 99% of our conversation.
- @mycomicrocket: Heh! Where/when was this?
- @remeranAuthor: This was at Beaver Bar Camp at Oregon State University in Corvallis.
