FANBOY COMICS TO RELEASE ‘THE ARCS’ (AND AN SDCC EXCLUSIVE)

LOS ANGELES, CA – July 2, 2013 – After God has abandoned Earth, the seven Archangels are forced to protect humanity against the rising legions of Hell. Can they pull themselves together to defeat Lucifer and his demons, or are they destined to suffer their own fall from grace?

Fanboy Comics is proud to announce that its latest graphic novel, The Arcs, will be released in November of 2013.  In advance of the fall premiere, a free digital preview will be available on the graphic novel’s website, www.thearcscomic.com, starting on Friday, July 12, 2013.  The Arcs was written and created by Michael D. Poisson and features artwork by Matt Jacobs (The Boys, Prototype) and lettering by Oceano Ransford (The Molting).

Despite the current controversy that has surrounded the crowdfunding site Kickstarter, it should not be forgotten that there are countless campaigns for high quality (and well intentioned) projects that deserve their chance to meet and/or exceed their fundraising goals.  By that same token, there may be projects which have already succeeded in reaching their goals and are in the process of working towards their "stretch goals" due to an overwhelming amount of fan support.  With that in mind, I want to bring to your attention The Guns of Shadow Valley.

Throughout the past week, crowdfunding website Kickstarter has faced an onslaught of criticism due to its initial decision not to pull the controversial Above the Game campaign that was running on its website.  Above the Game's creators sought to produce a "seduction guide" that was offensive to women; you can read about the project in detail here.  Despite Kickstarter's mission to prohibit campaigns that would promote or glorify violence against women and other individuals, the offending project was not immediately pulled, causing readers to demand a remedy from the crowdfunding giant.  As of Friday morning, Kickstarter released an official apology for their inaction, stating that they "were wrong," that they had removed the project's campaign page from the site, and that similar "seduction guides" would, moving forward, be banned from the website.  Kickstarter also made a $25,000 donation to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network.
