Comics By Request—People, Projects In Need Of Funding
By Tom Spurgeon
* there's a documentary film project about the great Gahan Wilson seeking crowd-funding
here that has a just shade under $50K goal and about 25 days left at the time you're reading this. I'd like to see such a film, and if you are with me on that, you might want to look that one over.
* the veteran comics-maker Michael Jantze
has met his initial goals with his crowd-funding project, but has a variety of stretch goals available for you to look over and perhaps decide to donate.
* if you've ever wanted some Johnny Ryan art,
now would be a good time to purchase some.
* it's not comics, but the hardcore nerd in me is fully behind
this Jeff Dee project drawing stuff from Empires Of The Petal Throne.
* you just sort of knew going in that Kris Straub was in a position to
crush any kickstarter goal.
* finally, I'm all for paying people what they might earn doing a Marvel and DC book, and I hope this project goes off, but
seeing a $200,000 kickstarter for 150 pages of comic book still makes me stand up and notice. Do Marvel and DC really sink that much into individual comic books? I'm not asking aggressively; I honestly don't know. For all I know, it's a lot more. Also, I should probably know that.
