Comics By Request: People, Projects In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* the latest DMP/Tezuka project will likely have met its goal by the time this rolls out as well.

* it doesn't seem as if this Nikola Tesla-related comic will need all that much help from CR readers to meet its goals, but that doesn't mean some of you won't be interested in participating in the crowdfunder.

* the Molly Danger team would like help reducing production costs on the publication of their comic. That one seems to have a significant fan base, so I bet it does okay. Because they have a publisher who cannot supply the entirety of production costs, all the usual issues regarding that kind of thing are in play.

* I see the crowdfunder for The Sunday Comics has started up. That's a considerable list of comics-makers involved. I learned about that project -- or was reminded -- from this dissenting opinion by Mike Lynch.

* here are three from folks that wrote in and ask that I go look at what they're doing: Tesla: Stormborn #1, How To Be A Supervillain And Love Life Doing It and The Collected Element Of Surprise. My apologies to anyone I missed.

* by my math, the writer Jim Hundall could still use several hundred dollars to meet his final fundraising goal on an extended period in his life that involved losing a foot.

* my not-comics request of the week is the Emanuel Church folks in Charleston. My experience is that AME churches are really good at returning value to the community on donations, and that's a church that will be looking for ways to perform service after the shattering murderous spree of last week.

* finally, just a couple of days left for Robyn Chapman's annual report on small-press doings, The Tiny Report.
