Stretch Goals and Backer Goals

We're closing in on our first Stretch Goal and our second Backer Goal!

Once unlocked, we'll be adding another 6 books to the Indie Comics Bundle between the two goals! That'll bring the total bundle up to THIRTEEN digital comics for all backers!

As of this writing, we're only $58 and 4 backers away from unlocking these goals, respectively! Here's hoping we unlock soon so that all backers have even more awesome comics to read!



Slice of Life Chapter 5

We're excited to announce that new episodes of Slice of Life will resume on WEBTOON starting next Monday! We'll be kicking things off with Chapter 5: Exchange Student!

Here's a preview image!

Chapter 5: Exchange Student

We've got lots of exciting stuff planned for Slice of Life in future Chapters, so we thank you all for your love and support!

To end off, definitely check out these other Kickstarter comics!


BEEF BROS BEHIND BARS

An aspirational leftist superhero graphic novella that sees a pair of happy-go-lucky himbo bodybuilders, Huey & Ajax Beef, take on the prison-industrial complex and the entirety of the carceral state! Imagine Noam Chomsky’s Heroes for Hire meeting Peter Kropotkin’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. It’s an anarcho-communist take on superheroes with politics so radical that the big, corporate-owned publishers would never touch it.


Miskatonic High #13

The whopping thirteenth issue of the comic series about the teens who take on H.P. Lovecraft-style monsters and their small-town high school...they're just not sure which is worse. In issue #13, two members of the Community Service Club go to Miskatonic University to confront the warlock who controls the library of dark secrets. Their friends will need to hurry to stop them... or to beat them there... to conceal their own secrets. But as they teens learn the warlock's dark history and how entwined it is with their own, they will realize that it might already be too late. And for one, a fateful decision will change everything!

You're already getting a taste of Miskatonic High as part of the Indie Comic Book Bundle (unlocked by our 350 Backer Goal)! So now's the perfect chance to get even more Lovecraftian goodness!


Thanks for reading and for your support!

How to be a Werewolf - Book 1

A collection of the first six chapters of the amazing supernatural webcoming: HowtobeaWerewolf! Malaya Walters spent her entire life keeping her werewolf side at-bay. That is, until a mysterious stranger introduces her to a secret world of night magic. Malaya discovers a complicated world of werewolf laws and powerful witches. After spending her life trying to ignore the struggle between her human and wolf side, she'll now have to tackle the divide head-on. How to be a Werewolf is a story about overcoming your worst fears, embracing what you're truly capable of, and not being afraid that you'll eat the neighbors.


Miss Medusa' Monstrous Menagerie

It's 1963,  and having a carnival of 666 monsters ain't the draw it used to be. Miss Medusa's Monstrous Menagerie is one of the last two Mythic shows left in the U.S., trucking from one backwater jerkass town to the next. It's dirty work, and sometimes you barely make the nut, but America's still the land of plenty (of rubes). For this season at least, Miss Medusa's hiring, and you can still run away and join the circus. (Mythics, Cryptids, Gods, and Atomics only, please.  Humans need not apply.)

Fun meeting fans!
over 2 years ago – Fri, Oct 29, 2021 at 04:33:12 PM

One of our favorite things about releasing "Slice of Life" on WEBTOON is all the love and support we see from WEBTOON readers! 

With thousands of people reading "Slice of Life" on the platform, we always run into fans whenever we table at Comic Conventions. And Baltimore Comic-Con was no exception!

We had an absolute blast meeting some of you and selling our other comics!

We hope to meet many more of you at future conventions! So if you ever see us at a table, definitely come up to say hello!

And don't forget that you can get any of our other books ("Bi Visibility", "Like Father, Like Daughter", "HAUNTING", and "They Call Her...THE DANCER!") as Add-ons via this Kickstarter!

WIFWULF

Is a rarity to see frequent co-writers on comics. I've completely admired Jackson and Collin's co-writing duties since their days on Joyride and now with their work from DC and Marvel. I can't wait to see them continue their partnership with Wifwulf. 

"Within these 72 pages of full-color art, a comics team of old and dear friends have come together to turn pain into something beautiful. This is the very definition of a passion project: a story we knew we had to tell. One that explores a few facets of trauma but especially speaks to relationship abuse, something that has touched more than one member of the creative team.  One that reminds you - and us - that even when you feel at your most monstrous, you can find your way back. But not unchanged."

Sister Mercy: The Collected Series: Vol. 1

"A schizophrenic nun is led by the voice of God through a post-apocalyptic wasteland."

This 120 page collection gives you full access to the world of Sister Mercy and the beauty and the horrors that await you there.

Written and created by Corey Hardiman and featuring interior art by the mega-talented duo of Ricardo Silva and colorist Fred Marinho, each page will leave you wondering what's coming next and wanting more."

Spider-Squirrel and Trash Panda get into all sorts of seemingly random hijinks. College dorm life. Interdimensional travel. Time travel. Multi-dimensional adventures. Girl troubles. Misunderstood villains. Villains with bad names. Villains who are just... bad. All wrapped up in a fun, funny, sometimes silly book full of action, character moments, and calamity!
