Regarding my Kickstarter project:
My current task is to select the 40 Mimi & Eunice IP cartoons the minibook will contain. You can sift through the whole IP category here. My current list is below, but it can change. If there are any real winners that aren’t on this list, please let me know by posting its URL in the comments. And please let me know what losers are on my list I should drop, to make room for better ones. Thanks!

Good selection. All of my favorites (in the IP topic) are here… except “Precious Sacred Idea“! How could you leave that aside? Maybe you could put it at #37 😉
my girlfriend and I both like this one a lot.
Would suggest this:
http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/04/08/you-may-be-right/
you can say, that i maybe right though 🙂
I also nominate
http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/05/11/precious-sacred-idea/
Although if you’re leaving out ones with swears, just change the F word to F*** because I think it’s a worthy inclusion
My other fave’s are http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/05/17/2010/07/26/patent/ and http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/04/11/incentivized-creation/
Thanks for these suggestions! Now please tell me which ones on my list to take out. Thanks!
I would probably take out this one:
http://mimiandeunice.com/2010/10/01/non-commercial/
There is enough wrong with traditional IP/Copyright options, let’s focus on them instead of going after differences in copyleft licenses.
The ones I love most are already there!
Hi, um, I left a comment, but it seems like the spam filter ate it.
Ok, let’s try this again, but this time I’m removing the links (which all go to your site, but the spam filter doesn’t care)…
I agree with Dr. Q; I’ve been pointing people to your “the cult of originality” essay as often as I could, and that comic is the one that summarizes it. Maybe you could add a link to the essay beneath that comic (or print it out separately… it’s a really strong essay).
I also agree with d-usa about not taking potshots at different free licenses. I don’t agree with including “precious-sacred-idea” as Charlie suggests because I think that one’s double-edged.
Also, #22 seems to be a dead link.
Also, #28 is a repeat of #39
I also think these two latest ones are pretty good:

http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/05/23/copyright-reform/
My final list is here:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1850676295/mimi-and-eunices-intellectual-pooperty-minibooks/posts/80110
I took many – but not all – suggestions into account. Thanks everyone!
Just wondering, why you don’t print up the 1000 or 2000 or so comic books and sell them. I fully support your ideas on copyleft, but I am also more than willing to buy a product (in this case a comic book) you have produced on the merits of free sharing of ideas. I’d love to give these out as gifts, starting with my kids. Count me in for a few bucks on a lot of (at least) 10 when you do this. I’m sure others out there are hungry for this as well.
They will be available for sale!
