Shorter titles

So I've been thinking to put away all the large epics for now and focus on some shorter projects. Shorter meaning stories running from couple of pages up to 52 pages.
Reason behind it is that I want to have some printable books that won't scare people away with the price tag, and the only way to do affordable color printing, is to stick to a comic book format rather than trades.
But I still want to put them online anyway, cause I don't mind giving stuff away for free :D

So the question is. Would it make sense to put all the short books under a single title? Make it a sort of a serialized anthology. Just put each story as a chapter. This way I'd be working on something longer, and at the same time could get couple of the shorter ideas out of my system.

Or should I post each one separately, regardless of their lenght. But then wouldn't a 6-pager more likely scare people off thinking it's some abandoned comic?

I think that it would be best if you put them all together, because of what you said about people maybe thinking they're abandoned comics if they were very short. It's sounds like a pretty fun idea too, good luck with it! :)

Ok, thanks... now I guess I have to look through the list of unused names to find one that could work for an anthology type thing :D

I don't see any problem with putting them all under one title; just make sure that people know they're all separate stories^_^
