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: Lost Letters and My Dear Pierrot
What it’s about: Two surreal tales of life, love, and loss from an extraordinary imagination…
From the award-winning wunderkind creator Jim Bishop (Nubo, the Cloud Guardian, Jill and Sherlock) comes two tales of heartbreak and adventure: Lost Letters and My Dear Pierrot.
For fans of Studio Ghibli and Satoshi Kon, these powerful and unique award-winning graphic novels are presented in English for the very first time and are available only from Magnetic Press, the industry’s leading graphic novel publisher.

Project #2: The Ex-Wives of Frankenstein #2
What it’s about: Elizabeth Frankenstein and the Bride of the Monster on the day they learn their husbands are alive, living as a gay couple, and returning to the city as heroes of Twitter, Reddit and the MRA movement.
In this installment, they find comfort in each other as they prepare for the media circus they know all too well, while having to face the emotional reality of their exes being back in the picture.
They shouldn’t be expected to be graceful about it right away.

Project #3: Thistle #1
What it’s about: Thistle is a 24-page fantasy comic that begins with Elf Ranger Tistlelandalon (Thistle) having volunteered to traverse a magical one-way portal though the mountains of the world on a mission of revenge against the Necromancer: the master of an undead horde that destroyed the kingdoms of the humans and the elves.
With their lands of origin devastated, is there anything still worth fighting for? Even If our hero enacts his revenge — and survives — with his family and friends lost on the other side of the world, who still lives that is worth finding his way home for?
In Thistle, we start at the finale — where many of our favourite fantasy epics end their tales — yet this finale is not one of victory. This is the story after the story, and the unexplored journey that begins after everything has been lost.
