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: Shin Zero
What it’s about: Magnetic Press and renowned French design studio Label 619 are proud to announce Shin Zero, a stunning graphic novel by award-winning creators Mathieu Bablet (Shangri-La, Carbon & Silicon) and Guillaume Singelin (Frontier, PTSD).
Twenty years after the last kaiju was vanquished, the sentai legacy survives—but only in fluorescent jackets and side hustles. Warren, Nikki, Héloïse, Satoshi, and Sofia were once ready to save the world. Today, they share a cramped flat and the fallout of their fading myth.
But something stirs in the ruins of this privatized paradise. When the line between nostalgia and nightmare begins to blur, these worn-out warriors must ask the question they’ve long tried to ignore: Are legends worth reviving—or better left to die?

Project #2: I’ll Melt with You
What it’s about: It’s the last week of high school and Courtney is running out of time to try witchcraft before it becomes a sad college phase.
Add to that the heat of an encroaching summer, and you have all the ingredients for a sticky tale of unrequited sapphic affection.
This comedy horror one-shot by Richard Fairgray, told across 28 pages, evokes the most unhinged Halloween episodes of your favorite teen dramas, with the densely character-based storytelling you’ve come to love from Richard’s other books.
This is his satirical take on morality plays and romance comics of the past, blended with a cynical, modern sensibility…with horny goths.

Project #3: White Noise
What it’s about: White Noise is a gritty follow-up to the critically acclaimed Gray Cells. Crime, corruption, and horror fill the collected six-issue story as our heroes battle a sinister network that has infected every level of their city.
The sequel picks up in the aftermath of the first book with an all new, self-contained story. Lina continues her hunt for the truth, diving deeper into the city’s corruption and exposing herself to greater danger as powerful enemies start to see her as a threat.
