Alright chaps - Journal contributor and Prof Elemental comics writer Chris Mole and lettering supremo Ken Reynolds have both contacted me recently about helping them promote their Kickstarters so I thought WHAT BETTER EXCUSE to start a thread that handily collates the interesting comics KS that pop-up so frequently and sometimes finish and leave you going "OH I WISH I'D SUPPORTED THAT".

So Chris Mole's is called Brigantia



It's the first issue of a miniseries and is about a time travelling Romano-British goddess so I'm up for it - containing as it does time travel and Roman shit which I'm well into. Never mind the talent - Chris is a great and passionate writer, great at pacing and building worlds. Melissa Trender is new to me but the art and colours are stunning - and 2000 AD's very own Gronkgod Nigel Dobbyn is on letters. It's only a £6 pledge for a hard copy/PDF which is extraordinarily reasonable I think.

The one by Ken Reynolds is called Sliced Quarterly


It's a collection of four issues of his Sliced Quarterly comic anthology - themed around the idea of experiment with comic narratives, it's extremely inventive stuff and contains some of the more fertile brains of the small press. One of the rewards is an astonishing digital mega bundle that contains TWENTY TWO indie comics for £8 which is pretty full on.
