Kickstarter Spotlight: Action Lab’s Danger Zone!
Action Lab Entertainment has launched a Kickstarter campaign to help push its recently-announced Danger Zone imprint, which incorporates a wide variety of titles aimed at more mature readers.
The Kickstarter campaign’s primary focus is on six of the first creator-owned titles to be released under the Danger Zone banner. Three of them–The Final Plague, Ghost Town, and Night of the 80s Undead–are bimonthly series, while the remaining three–The Trip, Zombie Tramp, and Double Jumpers–are either trade paperbacks or original graphic novels.
Donors to the Kickstarter can receive a number of unique items only available there, including exclusive covers, a fold in poster, original artwork, and even the opportunity to hang out with the Action Lab crew at San Diego Comic Con 2013.
With the emphasis on fun no-limits content, Danger Zone titles offered range from comedy, to horror, to science fiction, to whatever creators can dream up! Danger Zone is the place where anything goes, both for readers and creators. As with any independent publisher, Action Lab is tirelessly working to get this exciting material in front of as many eyes as possible. The company believes the Kickstarter campaign can contribute to that goal.
Having read the majority of the comics featured, they’re entertaining and fun to read. Absolutely a project worth supporting.
Best Pledge: $30 – there’s a few choices, but you get unique Kickstarter covers of the individual issues, a poster or can get one of the trades. There’s lots of different levels and combos, so go with the series that interests you.
Risk: LOW – Action Lab is a solid publisher that knows what they’re doing. Since I’ve read review copies for most of these series, creating them isn’t an issue. Maybe printing and shipping could be delayed a bit, but I’m confident they’ll come through.
