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 #2: Space Hell
What it’s about: An unprovoked attack in the dead blackness of space! Can we hold onto hope? Can we hold onto ourselves?
Recovering from a life-shattering event, Ming and Callum have taken the most mindless and remote job they could find as custodians of a hodgepodge space station barely functioning just beyond the middle of nowhere space. They wanted to get away from Earth and everyone on it for a while and find solace alone amongst the stars, and maybe themselves again in the process.
A mysterious ship helmed by ungodly Space Hellions is going to ruin that quiet solitude…
…but maybe this test of survival is just what Ming and Callum actually need to remember why they want to live.
Hopefully, it’s not too late.

Project #3: The Bubble Gumshoes #2
What it’s about: The Bubble Gumshoes is an all-ages series of crime capers where Tabitha and Emily, a plucky pair of middle school detectives, take on every case and foil any ne’er-do-well who foolishly stands between them and achieving true, lawful justice.
Cartoon chaos, clever characters, and cop show send-ups that are perfect for kids, teens, or anyone who loves adorable antics and genre-skewering farce. Readers looking for the same breed of crime-fighting escapades as Dav Pilkey’s offbeat beat-cop Dog Man will sink their teeth into The Bubble Gumshoes. In the spirit of early Cartoon Network original shows like Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s Lab, Courage the Cowardly Dog, and Codename: Kids Next Door, the wit and whimsy of The Bubble Gumshoes will leave you asking, “when’s the next episode?”
It’s here! THIS is the next episode!

Now, 13 years later, Heather has returned to Braddock to rebuild her life. As she and Albion attempt to reconnect, a dark presence in town has also reawakened.

Project #6: Carmilla Unbound: 1698-1875
What it’s about: See the evolution. Explore the origins of the world’s first literary vampire and go back in time as Countess Mircalla (a.k.a. Marcilla, a.k.a. Millarca, a.k.a. Carmilla) sets herself on a perilous path of virtuous vampiric vigilantism.
Carmilla Unbound: 1698-1875 Multiple ORiginGASMs is an audacious, bodacious, and salacious 44-page, perfect-bound, double-issue comic written by Clay Adams (Red X-Mas, Blazing Blade of Frankenstein, Dreamquest) and D.E. Schrader (Baby Badass, Cannibals on Mars, Rafael Garcia: Henchman) and features stunning interior art by Erik Tamayo (Robyn Hood Mystere, Star Trek) with rich, evocative colors by Alex Zief (Cult of Dracula, Monster Matador).
Inspired by Carmilla, Sheridan Le Fanu’s 1872 novella, the Carmilla Unbound series is a blood-soaked love letter to those who think Dracula was a little dry and needed a sanguinary transfusion of seductive, sapphic sex and virtuous violence.
