It’s been quite a week in looking back on my collection of crowdfunded comics projects! I believe I have 12 projects in total to cover (but knowing my storage methodology, a 13th or 14th could pop up and I would be entirely unsurprised), and this first week covered four of them.

The 12 (Week)Days of Comics Crowdfunding, Day 4: Time Before Time – Process Edition
[Since jumping into comics crowdfunding in March, I’ve received 12 projects in paper form. Some have arrived digitally, but I’ll wait until the paper copies arrive because I’m that type of luddite. This “Year in Review” will catalog each one…and I promise to be done by New Year’s Eve!] This is a bit of aContinue reading “The 12 (Week)Days of Comics Crowdfunding, Day 4: Time Before Time – Process Edition”

I also suggested that he was going to draw my one-shot script, wherein we bring the Cold War hero and his sidekick, Jeff, into the modern day. Guess who’s been hard at work? Want to see someContinue reading “Patriot update (with artwork)!”
