Author and illustrator Brett Brooks hopes to raise $2,000 for his graphic novel Dust Bunny, a stylized noir about a bunny cop. Above, we’ve embedded a video about the project.
Here’s more about the book: “You can’t create a comic book without the proper tools. Being that as it is, there will be a very serious investment in top-notch materials (pencils, paper, ink, pens, and brushes) to make sure that the art is at the highest possible quality. As well, once the art is complete, the next step is to kick down the doors of as many publishers as I can. Most of the ones I’m aiming for require hard copies of the comic’s pages – they want to see and feel what it looks like on paper – and I will need adequate funding to print and mail these pitch packages. However, even if I’m not scooped up by anyone, I will be self-publishing this book to ensure that all of you faithful followers are rewarded for your amazing support.
