Summary
Are you tired of the same old, same old? Constant remakes, deaths, and rebirths of your favorite characters, AGAIN!? Well I have a new and exciting concept that will unleash a world of characters and stories that will keep you busy for years to come!
- I've been a published professional for about 14 years and I'm always drawing other creator's ideas, it's time work on my own! I'm passionate about creating and want to bring a new world to fans that can get them excited about comics again!
- This book is my baby and I want to treat it right; with QUALITY and with that 90's flare that got me excited about comics in the first place! If we can get this book funded then it will be an ongoing series, and will constantly build upon itself! That means more stories, characters and adventures to explore!

Funding-
- 10K is the bear minimum it will cost to get this book made- and that's why I'm doing a Fixed Goal. If I can't make the minimum then I just can't fund the book to completion, but we'll try again another time!
- Cost for page colors + Covers and additional art + letters = $4600
- Cost for printing = $2400
- Additional funds will help supplement my time while I work on getting the book done!

Risks & Challenges
My main concern is just getting the book done on time. Art is always difficult because it's easy to get caught up in the little details, and my work is detailed! That's why I pushed it back to August 2020 (just in case!) I don't want to be late on this campaign! But that means I can be early!!
I want to make sure I give myself enough time and it's always good to plan for unforeseen events! They will happen! (Update: Now with the Corona Virus at hand, I'm glad I gave myself some extra time! I'll still be working to get this done early, I'm just working around my kids at home schedule etc. (Plus, my wife is due any day now with baby #4! =)) Update #2 : My wife had baby #4; on March 27th we welcomed into the world EmmaLynn James! =)
Other than that there are no concerns!
