It’s Michelle Fus‘ world, we simply reside in it. Long in the past, within the days generally known as 2020, many comedian firms entered the world of comedian e-book crowdfunding with successes. And then there was Skybound, who partnered with Michelle Fus to carry their fashionable Ava’s Demon webcomic to print for the primary time, amassing a then-record setting half million {dollars}.

The earlier marketing campaign hit the vaunted $100K mark in 8 hours, however this time round Book Two was funded in sixteen minutes and made $100K in beneath two hours, and the following day is at present simply over 1 / 4 of 1,000,000 {dollars}.

Now, we all know the UK and the States use completely different measurement techniques so I’m not saying which means this marketing campaign will do 4 occasions the pledges of its predecessor, however Ava’s Demon Book Two seems to be very a lot on the observe to smash previous its rivals and into the Top 10 comics Kickstarters of all time.. That’s not a foul approach for a franchise to rejoice its tenth anniversary.

And it isn’t simply us taking discover of Skybound’s success, with their recently-promoted Editorial Director Alex Antone included alongside giants like Webtoon and Tapas in Publishers Weekly’s function story this week on how webcomics are “saving reading,” which feels like an entire lot of strain for the home that Robert Kirkman constructed. But then once more, given what number of copies of Invincible have been bought final yr, perhaps it isn’t such an enormous job…

The Ava’s Demon Book Two: Aftermath Kickstarter marketing campaign is reside proper now and runs until November sixteenth, 2023.

Michelle Fus says “AVA’S DEMON is my ongoing science fiction and fantasy, multimedia webcomic about a girl named Ava and the demon haunting her. Well…ok…it’s a bit more complicated than that. The demon might just be the ghost of an alien queen, Wrathia, seeking revenge on the one that destroyed her empire, a god-like figure named TITAN. The story follows Ava as she makes her way across the universe, teaming up with Wrathia on her quest for revenge, while fighting her own inner demons along the way. With your help, we made AVA’S DEMON BOOK ONE: REBORN one of the biggest comics Kickstarters ever, and now I’m thrilled to be teaming up with Skybound yet again to bring you the definitive print edition of the next volume: AVA’S DEMON BOOK TWO: AFTERMATH. I’ve named the second volume of the series AFTERMATH because it picks up directly after the events of REBORN, when Ava unlocked a new power within herself and unleashed a devastating attack against TITAN’S forces. As the group escapes TITAN HQ, Ava’s actions have a polarizing effect on her friends, and Ava herself must come to terms with what she has done. This is a comic over ten years in the making and can’t wait for you to find out what happens next!”
