I was thinking on making a single-chapter manga on programming, 
featuring a redesigned version of my attempt at a D mascot (see 
here: 
https://ziltoid1991.deviantart.com/art/DLang-chan-624180895), and 
it would be a parody of Initial D. I won't do any longer series 
on programming even if I see a lot of potential in it, mostly due 
to labor cost (and having a lot of other ideas too), although it 
would change if somebody would do the art for me, so I can work 
on my main projects, also with a different premise.

Other than that, I think simple pins and T-shirts would be great 
ideas, I could easily make a few designs using publicly available 
stuff like logo vectors, a lot of Facebook T-shirt sellers do the 
same, but often with copyright infringement.
