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: Malloch the Damned #1
What it’s about: Malloch the Damned #1 is created by multiple Eisner- and GLAAD-nominated writer of comics, television, and film David M. Booher and artist Winston Gambro.
He’s handsome. He’s brooding. He’s clever. Good news, fellas. He’s very gay. None of that’s nearly as interesting as the fact that Moe Malloch is also the son of the devil. Literally. Satan’s his dad.
Moe Malloch was living his best afterlife until he came out as gay. To everyone’s shock, Satan threw him out of Hell. Of all the atrocious things humans do, being a queer son of Satan is the worst? That’s where we meet this immortal, grumpy, magical, whisky-drinking, I-wear-a-vest-because-it-looks-so-cool Hell-reject with a wry sense of humor.
He’s stuck on Earth until he can find a way back into the underworld. In the meantime, he solves supernatural crime.

Project #2: Arks Helices #1
What it’s about: In 463 BC, the Greek philosopher Anaxagoras believed the universe was made up of an infinite number of seeds which, upon reaching Earth, gave rise to life. He introduced the term Panspermia to the world.
Thousands of years later, his philosophy has become science — the theory of Directed Panspermia: transporting microorganisms between habitable planets to seed life across the cosmos. Scientific theory and experiment affirm that it is our only possible means of extra-solar travel. No spaceships. No light-speed. No cryo-pods. Just bacteria and A.I. in a probe the size of a pencil. And an Ark at the edge of the universe with a single purpose — stay alive.
Arks is a persistent, science faction universe that follows a new species of human (homo-evolutis / Arks) struggling to bring the light of consciousness to the stars. Our stories are born from real science, imagined and crafted by real people and made for a dangerous century.
Set 24,000 years after the events of Arks, Helices #1 follows the inhabitants of the Dyson-class space station Helices — a mega-structure so vast it can exist only in the orbit of a dead star. Inside its enormous O’Neill cylinders, the last of humanity hides from a terrifying enemy.

Project #3: Hallowed #1-2
What it’s about: In this comic book series, a desperate band of deserters find themselves lost in a mysterious forest, hunted not only by their sins and the religious zealots pursuing them…but the very woods themselves.
