MARTIAN LIT Looking For A Few More MARTIAN COMICS Kickstarter Friends

 

EDITOR’S NOTE:  In spite of the plethora of genres in comics today, there’s still not much pure science fiction like MARTIAN COMICS VOLUME 1: MOON TO MOON .  If you yearn for something like this, please check out the Kickstarter campaign and consider supporting this project.  As I’m already on board as a supporter of this campaign I was given a preview of the contents page, which I’m sharing with you . CLICK THIS LINK TO VIEW THE KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN:

Let’s hear from the creators . . . . .

With only six days left in our Kickstarter campaign, we're 70% funded. It's a reality of Kickstarters that the middle period tends to be quiet, and this campaign was especially so.

Hopefully, we'll be able to raise the final 30% of our goal. If we do, we'll order the printed books immediately, and send links to the digital copies to your Kickstarter inbox at the same time.

Whatever ends up happening, we want to thank you for your support! You've given us hope for making this beautiful book a reality and being able to continue the series.

And as a small thank-you for reading this update, here's the full table of contents from the book:

STEEL CITY CON Announces August Celebrity Line-Up

EDITOR’S NOTE:  Just a heads-up in case you were thinking of attending this convention, which is recommended if you are a fan of these celebrities. If you’re a comics fan, I suggest you contact the Con or visit their website to find out if there are any comics artists or creators in attendance.  The Steel City Con seems to have morphed over the years into a Celebrity Con, which isn’t a bad thing, but quite different from a standard Comics Convention.  Celebrities are not as accessible and require a ticket to chat with them or get a photo.  Be prepared to bring some extra money if you go.
