Comics By Request: People, Places In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* a young professor is looking for help in financing a book about Walt Kelly.

* not comics: this project was brought to our attention by that great comics-maker Phoebe Gloeckner, whose sister's classroom this is.

* a couple of heavy-hitters have projects hurtling towards their initial goal: C. Spike Trotman, for a sequel to Poorcraft emphasizing budget travel; Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, the writing team that's starting to make a habit of well-supported crowdfunders, for a new graphic novel.

* I don't know the creators on this project, but it popped up on the top of my looked-at projects over there for some reason, and seems stylish.

* finally, I believe this Dylan Meconis Patreon is reasonably new. Meconis is prolific and well-liked, and thus seems well-suited to such a campaign.
