As you may already have figured out, I enjoy browsing the comic Kickstarter campaigns for potential good reads, especially sci-fi, dark sci-fi, steampunk, and horror. There are a wealth of worthy projects to fund, but the campaigns that really grab your eyes are few and far between, and digging in your pocket for funding is no different than digging in your pocket to buy a comic book: you always want to get your money's worth.
Somehow I missed the Kickstarter for this excellent comic, which is now on the last few days of its campaign. But don't worry—they made their deadline!
Elsewhere takes you into the future and out into the universe. Ariya is a 24-year-old genetically engineered Marine on a mission to terraform Mars, even though she's still wet behind the ears. No matter how new she is to planetary missions, however, she is a straight killer! Ariya expects to wake after cryosleep and start her mission, but instead she finds herself Elsewhere.
This comic promises to be a blast. It is an amalgamation of traditional art, drawing, and digital art that results in a pristine and detailed comic book—a 36-page action/adventure packed with blood, gore, and battles. If that doesn't convince you, then have a look at the Kickstarter video below and don't forget to tell me what you think downstairs!
