Brighton is now the base for a home-grown comic company called Underfire which has made reality out of a hobby.
The founders are already seeing a lot of interest in their beautifully-produced drawings with readable story lines.
Will they make enough money from their comics to keep them going? It's down to the luck of the draw.
