Soldering is Easy Comic Book turns 1

Soldering is Easy

Today marks one year since Mitch Altman, Andie Nordgren and I released our Soldering is Easy comic book.

Since then it has been translated into 15 other languages (not including Morse Code) and has been downloaded more times than we can count (40,000 times in the first week alone).

I would like to extend our sincere thanks to all of the translators and to everyone else who has helped spread our comic book around the world. I’ve seen it at hacker conferences and Maker Faires, referenced in university electronics courses, and posted at hackerspaces in very far away places.

Thanks for making our comic book such a huge success, we couldn’t have done it without you!
