Santa vs. Dracula – The clock is ticking
There are only three days left to pledge for the Kickstarter project for the comic book titled “Santa vs. Dracula” by Ed Power and Melissa DeJesus, the former creators of the entertaining newspaper comic strip My Cage. Unfortunately, their project is only 77% funded at the moment and Kickstarter requires that every project is 100% funded or they don’t collect the raised money.
Note that it’s not just an altruistic donation, you actually get something in return, for example a copy of the comic book including a sketch if you pledge $35 (like I did myself). I think giving some money to indy comic creators whose comic is not just yet another superhero comic is always a good thing to do. So I want to thank all of our readers who already supported Ed and Melissa when I first posted about “Santa vs. Dracula” a month ago in the description of our comic [0321] Children.
Update: The project is now 100% funded, just a couple of hours before the deadline!
I tried backing, but it requires a credit card, sadly. Sent a message with the question if it’s possible to back through paypal, though. It’s hard to get a credit card in my country.
$1605 to go with 42 hours left… I might knock that down 25-35 dollars (it looks like quite a fun thing, and I could do with some fresh posterage), but it’ll still need another 50+ like me doing it, or another 29% extra backers on top of the current tally…
I wonder why it’s so high though, I thought the entry bar for small run publishing was pretty low these days?
