# DAO of the Week Notes, Hero DAO
the whole dao is run on gnosis chain and uses DAOhaus
treasury in xdai to pay artists and contributors
xdai is a super power - bear market, they're still paying contributors
started last summer
goal- community owned super hero franchise
if you go through al the most popular pieces of media, their almost all owned by disney
media owned by fans could be better
creators
- either work for marvel and dc, who then owns all your work and make lots of money off your work (paid but don't own work)
- try to crowdfund (own your work but hard to get paid)
- 2100 kickstarters for comic books
working on a real physical comic book
- character was voted on by DAO
- artists are top level
- onboard them to crypto
- contributors get paid fairly and earns shares in the DAO
Moon Girl #1
- due to publish in one month
- 1940's originated
- take the hero with a cool backstory, but is dated.
- in public domain
- modern take
- previous Moon Girl swears that she will only marry someone who can beat her in a fight
- Completely Rewritten
- she kicks ass
- villain is Will Powers (like a FAANG CEO)
- create their own version of a public domain character
Open Source platform - take the stories on public domain and put them back in the hands of the people, and not let places like disney take control of everything
Onboarding creative people into crypto and xdai
- learning and experiencing earning crypto
look out to purchase the first comic book later in Summer 2022
creators can join the discord and go to a town hall and learn how to contribute
