Inhibit: Book One Coming to Kickstarter
Reading time: 2 minutes
We love a good comic Kickstarter and it's become a popular way for people to get their comics made and sold, providing the funding target is met. One of the other plus sides is that there are a lot of superb webcomics that would make good comics/graphic novels, and turning them from a webcomic into something paper based can give a feeling of accomplishment and that all the hard work has been worth it. It's why we're excited to see another webcomic coming to Kickstarter.
Inhibit: Book One is launching on Kickstarter on January 28th, which collects the first give chapters of the sci-fi webcomic by Eve Greenwood. Set to last 30 days, the aim is to raise £4500 for 200+ pages of story with exclusive concept art added. A range of rewards are available, but he main one is that the book will cost £20 plus shipping.
Check out the press release below along with a look at some of the pages.
As a kid, Victor dreamed of training to be a superhero. That didn't go so well. Seeking a fresh take on the whole "teenagers with superpowers" thing, Inhibit: Book One is launching on Kickstarter on January 28th to bring the first five chapters of the urban sci fi webcomic to print.
Nine years ago, Victor eagerly joined the UK's most esteemed superpower training centre. Now approaching his 18th birthday, he's been kicked out and transferred to a facility for kids who can't control their powers. Despite a rocky record, he is given one last chance to receive his licence and go home to a normal life. But when he most needs things to go smoothly for once, everything starts to go wrong, and he finds himself tangled in the plot of a mysterious arsonist. Inhibit is a young adult, urban sci fi comic about growing up and being afraid to leave home. If you like teenage angst, unsettling government organisations, being gay, committing crimes, and expressions that break every law of physics, you might like Inhibit!
