Here at Fanbase Press, we strive to provide an outlet for up-and-coming creators to promote and showcase their incredible works. With thousands of creators utilizing crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo to make those works a reality, we will highlight these talented creators and their noteworthy campaigns through #CrowfundingFridays! We hope that you will join us in giving these projects a moment of your time (and possibly your support)!
Project #1: Aurora & the Eagle #1
What it’s about: Top Cow Talent Hunt winner and co-creator of Jupiter Jet series and Science!: Ashley Victoria Robinson (“Love is Love”, “Apollo IX #1”, “Witchblade #175”), and Dunes Hunters artist: Emmanuelle Chateauneuf (“Queen Street”, “Princess Bunyi”), are a team of Canadian comic book creators who have teamed up to reimagine the first chapter of an all new comic book adventure. Aurora & the Eagle stars a young woman who is imbued with the power of the Northern Lights and must move from her homebase in Canada to the United States to fulfill her superheroic destiny! Aurora and the Eagle #1 debuted on Kickstarter in 2019 as a 20 page black-and-white digital only issue. The initial story and support from the original campaign helped Robinson become a citizen of the United States. Now that Robinson holds dual American and Canadian citizenship, she and the creative team are diving back into Aurora and the Eagle to explore the intersection of identity and superheroes. This “Remix” issue features the original graphic novel 20 pages redrawn by Chateauneuf, 28 new pages, for a prestige 48 page first chapter and sees Canadian superhero Aurora Borealis come into her own and perhaps surpass her American mentor, The Eagle.

Project #2: Hellbound Slant 6 #3
