Comics By Request—People, Projects In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* everyone's favorite cartoonist David Lasky is trying to sell some art to raise the funds to go to San Diego and attend the Eisner Awards ceremony where his Carter Family book is nominated. No nicer man than that David Lasky, and his art looks pretty great, too. If nothing else, you might drop $16 and get three issues of Boom Boom -- that's almost what a non-rare comic book costs today, and they're pretty much all terrible.

* Shaenon Garrity and Jeffrey Wells have a kickstarter going for the next Skin Horse print book; they've already doubled their initial goal.

* the writer Greg Rucka talks about recent crowd-funding efforts and the phenomenon in general.

* that veteran on-line effort Jerk City has enjoyed a successful crowd-funding effort here.

* finally: Rob Liefeld, crowd-funder.
