There’s a lot to like about this book — from the inspirations to the execution — but if you’re anything like me, the first thing you’ll notice is the incredible vision in the artwork.

Read MoreBy Zack Quaintance — We’re back today with a new Kickstarter Interview, wherein writer Rylend Grant talks about his recently-launched campaign, The Peacekeepers 1 and 2. Rylend describes this new project as a quirky crime drama (not unlike Fargo, No Country For Old Men, True Detective, etc.), and today he’s taken the time to elaborate on it with us.

The concept for this book is basically D&D meets The Man from U.N.C.L.E., or if you prepare alliteration — elves meets espionage. You can read our chat about the book below, before heading over to the campaign page to back the book.
Read MoreBy Zack Quaintance — The Glass Wall is a new graphic novel that just recently hit Kickstarter. It’s an adaptation of a novel by Will Robertson, who has scripted it for comics himself, and it’s being brought to life now by artist Yulia Lapko. It’s a sophisticated story that involves drug-use in London, a main character struggling to cope with a difficult time in life, and an assault between two of the people closest to him. It’s a great project, and today we have an interview with Will and Yulia, which you can read below before heading over to back this one via The Glass Wall campaign page.
Read MoreBy Zack Quaintance — Sometimes you come across artwork and a name for a comic that combines to immediately let you know this is a book you were destined to love. That was certainly the case with me and the new Kickstarter comic, El Cabron Pistolero. The name is simple but effective, roughly translating in English to the bastard (in a cool way!) gunslinger, and the artwork aesthetic has this cool 80s grafiti cartooning vibe that I absolutely love. I immediately backed this project and reached out the same day to ask the creator if we could connect for an interview.

The project is Andraste #1 - #3 (of 12), and I recently had a chance to discuss this book with writer Honor Vincent. We also talked about basing comics on history, comics versus prose, and more. You can check out our conversation below, and then when you’re done, you can head over to the Andraste campaign page to back this book!
Read MoreBy Zack Quaintance — Writer/artist Tony McMillen recently funded a Kickstarter for his new book Serious Creatures on Day 2 of his campaign. It’s easy to see why this concept found such a fast audience — McMillen’s project blends his own striking cartooning style with a story that involves Hollywood in the ‘70s, growing up with creative aspirations, and the classic movie Jaws. Recently, I had the chance to send Tony a few questions about the book, all of which you can find below before heading over to the Serious Creatures campaign page to back this project.
Read MoreBy Zack Quaintance — In today’s Kickstarter Interview, I had a chance to send some questions to writer Fraser Campbell and artist Lucy Sullivan, whose book Barking made my list of the Best Graphic Novels of 2020 (So Far).

You can read our conversation below, and then when you’re done you can head over to the IND-XED campaign page to back the project now.
