You were told previously that it is not at all necessary to live in Los Angeles or New York City to work for DC and Marvel.
I said before that for a while, The Spider-Man comics were worked on by a writer based in Oregon and an artist based in Italy who speaks limited English.
UK based writer Alan Moore wrote for DC without ever leaving his hometown of Northhampton.
You were also told of why the companies moved in a previous thread.
Recently, DC made a 30 minute spotlight video on artist Jorge Jimenez, who lives in Spain, speaks mainly Spanish, and is currently the main artist on the Batman comics.

I'm producing cartoons and comics that are throwbacks to old cartoons and comics.
That doesn't answer this.

Your retro throwbacks will likely be culturally irrelevant and quite possibly morally repugnant if you add your homophobic Christian perspective.

@JGoldman10,
Smaller studios have slightly higher chances than just working solo to get discovered but still low overall.
Some studios prefer not to be bought by major companies and want to remain independent.
Sounds like you do want to be discovered by a major company.
Here is what preschool children watch on YouTube. It has almost 2 billion views. The channel, Cocomelon, produce similar content, and each video gets a 1 million views in a single day
Based on what my nieces and nephews watch, children watch toy unboxing videos, Barbie/dolls videos (with questionable content), and gameplay videos (Minecraft, Roblox, Fort Nite being popular games).
Have you considered just working for an animation company for a few years to get enough money and improve your skills? Then later, leave and work on your personal projects?
It is what most creators do, like Mark Millar (worked for DC/Marvel, left to create his own company Millarworld).
Seems like that would have been ideal to do after you went to art school.

So much for your claim of being all for diversity. Children definitely do need to know, to be aware of all types of people. Christians, Jews, Muslims, Atheists... All religious views. Black, white,orange or green or even blue. All races. All ethnicities. All sexualities.
That does not mean you have to include the things that offend your beliefs in your creative ventures, just know that being completely about diversity means embracing or at least accepting people of all backgrounds and beliefs and practices.

Everything is from God. Go out into the animal kingdom, even by non-humans are of various sexuality. God is about love. Love even your enemy. Or is it perhaps you that is not of God?

You compromised that ages ago. The level of sanctimony and hatred you spew are clear evidence that you are compromised.

@Rebelofnj,
I want to call my cartoon studio "Goldtoon Studios" and my comic publishing company "Alliance Comics". I'd like to label my toons and comics with these brands respectively before showcasing them online in video form on video-sharing sites, social media sites and on other video platforms, and showcase my material in as many formats as I can on as many online platforms as I can.
