Bundled Extra: Icecubes Comic Crowd-Funder On Last Day

One of the more aggressive crowd-funder in my inbox in terms of asking for coverage has been this one for a project called Icecubes. I'm going to watch it on its last day for the reason that it seems like there's been a surge for projects on their last day. Now something as small as this one that could just be manipulate by a couple of outside players, but I think I'm seeing it with bigger projects, too. It seems like the Broken Frontier one roared past the finish line near the end, too, for example. For a model where conventional wisdom says that the two primary surges in publication are right at the beginning and then late when goals are met and stretch goals are being rolled out, an impulse to get people over the line playing a bigger role would be a key change for that whole culture.
