One of the things I love about Steemit is all the comics I get each week to make me laugh and think. I'd recommend you check out 
It would be great to see some bigger names posting their work here. We did have 
Here are some others I'd like to see. Screenshots are just to tempt you to visit their sites. We can drop them some hints about Steemit, although it's not the ideal time to join whilst rewards are reduced. We can at least get it on their radar. I'm declining payout on this as I'm using their work and shouldn't profit from it.
Savage Chickens are fun little comics. Often a bit surreal.
xkcd is one of the top comics for geeks. He's clued up enough to put his comics out under Creative Commons licence. I think he makes a lot from merchandise.
CommitStrip is also geeky in that it's about developers.
Ideally it should be made even simpler for people to get their content onto Steemit. I'm sure they use tools to get it on Facebook, Twitter etc when they post a new comic. Can we get Steemit added to those? They will also have share buttons. Steemit ought to be in there. Not sure how that works with the licencing as rewards need to get back to the creator. On some of the social sites you tend to share a thumbnail of the post so that people need to click through to see it. Ideally Steemit should also be able to insert some sort of image when you paste a link. That would be useful generally.
Just throwing these ideas out there. I have been trying to engage with various creators to make them aware of Steemit. Just making them aware is a good first step.
Steem on!
