Comics Etc. has been a cornerstone of the comic book retail industry in Queensland for over 25 years, known for its dedicated following of enthusiastic, tech-savvy fans. Despite their strong market presence, the existing website did not fully capture the vibrancy and energy of their brand or their extensive comic book offerings.
Objective
The objective was to revitalize Comics Etc.’s online presence with a website that not only showcased their extensive comic book catalog but also enhanced the user experience to support e-commerce and drive additional sales. The goal was to create a digital environment that mirrored the excitement and engagement users feel when browsing their favorite comics in store.
Approach
The approach focused on integrating beloved comic book characters into the website’s functionality, making the online shopping experience fun, interactive, and engaging. This was achieved by theming different sections of the website around popular characters, such as “Wolverine Pre-Orders,” “Iron Man Bestsellers,” “Batman Shop Now,” and “Captain America’s In Store This Week,” with the entire website playfully “held up” by the Hulk. This creative integration aimed to captivate users and encourage more in-depth interaction with the product offerings.
They have a great balance of being both commercial and creative. They’ve got the technical expertise but they really go beyond with the mix of both design and commercial understanding so we can really build something that’ll achieve the desired outcome of the business. They worked with us through that. Additionally, we're impressed with their strategy. They didn’t intend to build a site that’d be demolished in a couple of years’ time. Their team is being scalable so they’ll reuse the work that they’ve done previously to build. They don’t have to restart. This shows that they’re being very careful with our money as well. Additionally, we’ve had a great flow in sales. We’ve had $7 million worth of preorders since we went live. This is far exceeding our expectations and targets. The fact that it flowed and worked well without any errors is a win.

The team has been amazing to work with. As someone who doesn’t have a solid background in media and communications, they’ve been able to get me through the process. They make things very easy to understand, and they’re agile and responsive to our needs. We’ve had really tight timeframes, and they’ve come up with out-of-the-box, intuitive solutions to offer our stakeholders during COVID. They’ve always been accessible and able to bring me on the journey very quickly, allowing me to understand web development, web design, and why we do things the way we do. They’ve come up with solutions I never would’ve thought of that have been fantastic and absolutely hit the mark.

Since the launch of our website in February, we have seen it make great gains when it comes to audience figures and attracting quality leads throughout the site. With the digital realm changing everyday, Evolut have been working closely with me and my team on improving the website to better attain and qualify potential leads, always ensuring that the site's mechanics, creative and analytics are kept up to speed with industry standards. I am very pleased with the level of service that I receive from Evolut and their genuine interest in our products and brand.
