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: A Haunted Girl: Exclusive Extended Edition
What it’s about: Originally published by Image Comics and Syzygy Publishing, this hardcover edition contains all new behind-the-scenes features and is the ultimate collector’s item for fans of the acclaimed supernatural horror story that explores the real-life terror that comes with the struggles of anxiety and depression.
The story is inspired by the real-life mental health battle of co-writer Naomi Sacks, who teamed with her father, comic book veteran Ethan Sacks (Star Wars: Bounty Hunters, Old Man Hawkeye), and artist extraordinaire Marco Lorenzana (Hulk), in an attempt to reach readers going through similar struggles.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

Project #2: Into White: The Art of George Pratt
What it’s about: Into White: The Art of George Pratt is the first in a series of art of books to be published by Tripwire Comics Presents. Pratt is an artist and illustrator who once drew extensively in comics in the 1990s but, for a number of reasons, has moved on to gallery work and to teach at the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota in Florida. He has built up an incredible body of work that includes portraiture, landscapes, figure work, and also some exceptional comic work. Pratt is an artist who transcends a number of different genres and disciplines.

Project #3: War Lion #1-3
What it’s about: This dystopian martial arts epic tells the tale of an old warrior returning from exile with his daughter to settle the score with the vicious tyrant that destroyed their lives and controls their city with an iron fist.
Issue #3 picks up from where Issue #2 left off: The revolt against the Overseer has staggered. The only hope that remains is solely dependent on whether War Lion and Kiah can come to terms after the shattering revelation of Issue #2.
