And check out my ongoing fantasy comic, Hero of Legend: https://bindings.app/read/A1eEYoFP
This has been a really tough Kickstarter. We're on track to get about half as many backers as we normally pick up through the Kickstarter algorithm. Which is... not great!

So, if you've been on the fence about checking out Hero of Legend, now truly is the time.

Say what you want about Ultimates, the reason it hits is that it's one of, like, 3 super hero comics currently being published that feel like they have an actual point of view about the world.
