Comics By Request: People, Projects In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* Dame Darcy joins the legion of artists and comics-makers deriving part of their living from Patreon. I'm sure I'll join them someday myself.

* the Sunday Comics project continues its crowd-funder; it does seem it's lagging behind a bit but there's a ton of time left. In fact, most big projects I've followed seem to have surged late rather than early, at least the recent ones I've been following. I note that the artists are donating work for a first issue, so a model where the artists are paid after this first issue seems like it will take a ton of money. Here's the PR on that one.

* the crowdfunder for the last volume of Gunshow seems to be moving along at a solid clip.

* if you're headed out to San Diego, keep two of the traditional comics charities in mind: The Hero Initiative and the CBLDF.

* here's that Nexus-related crowdfunder that caught my eye in the heads-up stage.

* Chris Sims profiles the crowdfunder being attempted by skilled veterans John Ostrander and Tom Mandrake.

* finally, Box Brown is having a moving sale. Help out Box!
