The Korner – A Comic Crowdfunding Round Up – Updates August 30, 2026

Packrat & Thunderbunny 1-3

Issue 3 of Packrat & Thunderbunny, an all-ages, humorous, action-packed, buddy superhero comic book.

Current Funding: $4,404
Funding Goal: $2,500
Days Left: 2
Link: Packrat & Thunderbunny 1-3

 

Packrat & Thunderbunny is a humorous, all-ages, indie-created, action-packed, buddy superhero comic book. Think Superheroes meet Saturday morning Cartoons. Drawn in a bold, brightly-colored cartoony style, this comic is a kid-friendly fun and funny romp that pays tribute to the classic superhero comic book genre of heroes vs villains coupled with the slapstick comedy often found in cartoons.

Re-re-Introductions
This is our third campaign for Packrat and Thunderbunny, this time it’s for Issue 3 of a five-issue story arc. For those who missed the first and second issues, look below for a brief synopsis of what’s happened so far. Issues 1 and 2 will be available with this campaign in both digital and physical formats.

Packrat and Thunderbunny are two best friends that happen to be superheroes. Unfortunately, as we saw in Issue 1, one of them is unaware they are best friends.

Much like the main characters of the book, the co-creators of this comic, Derek Jason Bush and John Fletcher Pasquini, are also best friends and have been since they met in high school back in 1987! Yeah, we are that old! The characters were created when Derek was a freshman and John was a senior. It took 35+ years for these characters to come to life. If you want to read the entire backstory behind the making of these characters, check out the “Backstory” section of our first campaign here.

This Third issue picks up right where the second issue left off.  Like Issue 2, this issue  introduces yet another new character to the mix…Slingshot! He’s a speedster much like Thunderbunny, but also in many ways, he’s nothing like Thunderbunny.

Will he be a rival for Thunderbunny’s “Best Bud” friendship with Packrat? They may need to run a speedster race to find out. Will that even matter?

Plus, even more answers are provided in Issue 3 concerning Thunderbunny’s origins. Will we finally find out why Packrat doesn’t seem to know that Thunderbunny is his best friend? SPOILER: Quite possibly, yes.
