From Alterna Comics, the publisher that brought you the New York Times Best-Selling graphic novel “FUBAR: Empire of the Rising Dead”, comes a brand-new superhero series – “COSMIC”. Written by Sal Brucculeri with art by Chandra Kelly and colorist Victoria Pittman. The series will debut on Alterna Comics’ digital line in January 2014.
The COSMIC team is holding an Indiegogo fundraiser to finance future issues of the series at igg.me/at/cosmiccomic. The fundraiser will last until Monday, September 30, 2013. The indiegogo project for COSMIC will be your chance to own the series before it is released to the world. Here are some rewards that will be available: the special “Indiegogo Edition” printed copy of issues one and two combined into a trade paperback, original page sketches, the full script, pdf’s of the pencils, a custom computer from kmlcomputerservices.com, a t-shirt, and inks for aspiring inkers, colorists, and letterers to use!
Cosmic, Issue 1- Cover and unlettered pages.
The Back Story — Landon Debson is your typical college graduate in today’s world, he has plenty of student loan debt but no job to show for it. Wasting away his education on the unemployment line, Landon finally receives a call-back from one of the hundreds of interviews he went on and is offered his very first job. Filled with excitement to start his new career as a S.T.A.R. at U.P.A., Landon doesn’t realize that he has signed a contract to work for the Universal Protection Agency as a Soldier Through All Radars as the superhero “COSMIC”.
The First Story-Arc — Flash-forward a year later, Cosmic is faced with the task of protecting the infants of Earth from the alien pirate “Captain Priam” and his crew of baby-snatchers!
The ultimate goal of this campaign is to fund issues one and two with a stretch goal for additional issues. A $25 contribution gets you the indiegogo Edition TPB and the PDFs of issues 1 and 2, but for each stretch goal we reach, anybody who pledged $5 or more will receive the PDF of each issue added! All backers who contribute $30 or more will receive a signed issue of each additional issue added through stretch goals! Even if you can’t contribute, just spreading the word about the campaign and comic book would be fantastic and extremely appreciated.
