Comics By Request: People, Places In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* coming to this one a bit late, but Darryl Cunningham could use some orders. I love my Darryl Cunningham prints.

* still fairly impressed with the JHU crowd-funder aimed at keeping the legendary retailer in Manhattan. I don't doubt there are a lot of fans of the story with significant affection for the place, that's usually just such a tough sub-category for Kickstarter.

* Ken Eppstein's Nix Comix is more than halfway to its goal -- funding a 2018 publishing slate -- with about 12 days remaining, which is a good sign but not, of course, actually funding something.

* Lemonade Summer is at the point where they need angels more than its likely they can fundraise their remaining initial ask through standard customers. It is the kind of project that might attract that kind of attention.

* finally: here's the Indiegogo comics page -- I think. Damned if I can read it. Looks like they're pulling old and new projects together? I'm sure there's some great stuff in there. I'll stop doing these baffled old man bullet points now.
