+Here's a bunch of comparisons of online store platforms for selling art.  This is written from the perspective of someone who sells comics that contain gore and sex in them, as well as digital files of those comics.  This may or may not help you if you sell other adult art like writing or videos.
 I will list pros, cons, and whether they allow 18+ content.
