A Boy Like Me – 10th Anniversary Edition
by Jennie Wood
This special 10th anniversary reprint with a new forward by the author Jennie Wood! A Boy Like Me was a Next Generation Indie Book awards finalist, an INDIEFAB Book of the Year finalist, and one of Foreword Reviews’ 10 Best Indie YA novels for 2014. In the ten years since the original publication, the world has changed dramatically for trans individuals, and Jennie has addressed this evolution with a new forward. It’s the perfect time to bring back this coming-of-age novel and introduce it to a whole new generation.
Plus, Jennie has agreed to donate 100% of their profits to UNITE AGAINST BOOK BANS – because banned books are the ones we should read MOST! Trans rights are under attack, and books, films, and other art that tells trans stories are our best weapons against hate, giving people a window into experiences outside their own. Additionally, there are increasing efforts to ban books across the country, so raising money for Unite Against Book Bans is more important than ever.
For fans of: Jennie Wood, YA novels, LGBTQ, trans rights, anti-censorship.

Sh*tkickers
by Joey Esposito, Andrea Schiavone, Sabrina Filieri, and Lucas Gattoni
When the cocky and entitled Dylan Jax joins the Cosmic Protection Bureau and is assigned to bullshit busywork alongside a grumpy alien vet, he’s forced to confront the reality that his great destiny was just a lie his mommy fed him, and that the organization he’s committed his life to isn’t as benevolent as it claims to be.
SHITKICKERS is a series that lives somewhere between the humor of the Jump Street films and the high-stakes action of Guardians of the Galaxy—with a little Starship Troopers for garnish.
But underneath the dick jokes and bad attitudes, this is a story about fighting against a system designed to oppress, even if it takes you a while to realize the side you should be fighting for isn’t the side you’re on. It’s about finding your place in the universe with a little help from your friends and the importance of chosen family. It’s about telling your past to fuck off so you can carve out your own future.
The COSMIC PROTECTION BUREAU (CPB) is an intergalactic police force that uses a Silver Age-style comic book called SPACE COPS as propaganda to draft recruits into service, human and alien alike. But the truth of the CPB is far removed from the romanticized version found in these recruitment comics—the CPB is dirty and corrupt, a problematic organization that prioritizes protecting its own over their sworn duty to serve and protect.
Our story centers around two of these space cops: DYLAN JAX, a hot-headed, brash go-getter eager for action, and SKIZZ, a veteran alien in a career backslide who’s comfortable toiling away in the Bowels of THE PRECINCT, the homeplanet of the CPB. She’s a self-described SHITKICKER, aka the Being doing the most menial tasks possible. When the cocky Dylan is assigned to do bullshit busywork with Skizz, he’s forced to confront the reality that his great destiny was just a lie his mommy fed him, and the organization he’s committed his life to isn’t as benevolent as it claims to be. Bored out of his gourd and trigger happy, Dylan kidnaps Skizz to go on a mission to crack open one of his new partner’s cold cases that sends them spiraling down a wormhole of intergalactic conspiracies, dirty cops, and big-time daddy issues.
SHITKICKERS is a series that lives somewhere between the humor of the Jump Street films and the high-stakes action of Guardians of the Galaxy—with a little Starship Troopers for garnish, and it sounds like this. If you like comics such as Fear Agent, Wasted Space, or Scud the Disposable Assassin, we think you’ll dig this too. But underneath the dick jokes and bad attitudes, this is a story about fighting against a system designed to oppress, even if it takes you a while to realize the side you should be fighting for isn’t the side you’re on. It’s about finding your place in the universe with a little help from your friends and the importance of chosen family. It’s about telling your past to screw off so you can carve out your own future. You can also preview the comic here at GlobalComix’

Zombie Date Night 2: A Zombie Romance Comedy Sequel
A Second Date You Won’t Forget
Roses are red…
Blood is too.
And the undead are even hungrier
In Zombie Date Night 2!
From the clearly rotted mind of Steve Urena (Slow Pokes 1&2, Zombie Date Night, X-Maschina, Foul Mouth) comes the sequel to the critically acclaimed zombie romance comedy, Zombie Date Night!
Still recovering from the awkwardness of their first Zombie Date Night, main characters Jack and Ginger have reached the scariest place to be…the friend zone.
When their survival group realizes they’re running out of food, the enthusiastic and outgoing Ginger leads the charge with a very reluctant Jack to find sustenance before the zombaes (zombies who can only survive with a mate) eat them first. Will the second date be better than the first or will this situationship be food for the undead?
Returning for the sequel is the original team behind the first Zombie Date Night. Incredible art drawn by Sergi Domènech. Amazing Colors by Josh Jensen. Eye-catching lettering by Anthony Rella and editing by the wonderfully talented Allegra Calderaro. This 24-page, hilarious action-packed comic has got everything: laughs, zombies, romance and, of course, over-the-top violence!
Glarien and Thane Vol 1
Love hurts. And sometimes…it kills. An adult fantasy graphic novella of how White Ash’s very first couple got together

Written by Layne Morgan based on a story by Morgan and Stickney, with art by Giulia Lalli and colors by Vittorio Astone, Glarien and Thane is a high-fantasy, action romance in the vein of Mr. and Mrs. Smith… if it took place in the world of Vox Machina.

You’ve made White Ash and Glarien two of the most-backed comic book series in the history of the platform.

THE JUMP 1-4 from Screenwriter Rylend Grant
The smash hit astral projection thriller takes on the ELECTION! From the Ringo Award-winning creator of THE BREACH & THE PEACEKEEPERS.
THE JUMP is a comic book series from screenwriter Rylend Grant, artist Fabio Alves, colorist Edson Ferriera, and letterer HdE… the same twisted team that brought you Action Lab: Danger Zone’s critically-lauded superhero noir BANJAX. Banjax was nominated for FOUR Mike Wieringo Comic Book Industry Awards including BEST SERIES (along-side BITTER ROOT, SOMETHING’S KILLING THE CHILDREN, & BLACK HAMMER: AGE OF DOOM).
The first three issues of THE JUMP – launched to much fanfare here on Kickstarter – received RAVE reviews. This new campaign will fund the pulse-pounding ISSUE #4 and hopefully we’ll hit a few stretch goals along the way so we can give you more bang for your Kickstarter buck.

Love Letters, Every Day
A quirky collection of BACKGROUND NOISE COMIC affection from our first year of making diary comics
We’re Lisa and John, and this is our comic reality. In 2018, we were a struggling comic artist and writer living and raising teens in the Brooklyn bubble.
Background Noise Comic is a Ringo-award-nominated diary comic about our life, our love, and our quirks. We started the comic online in 2018.
When we launched this passion project, we produced a comic daily for a whole year! Now, with your help, we’re turning the best comics from our first year into a book — LOVE LETTERS, EVERY DAY.
A year on the couch? You betcha!
In our comics, we voiced our angst, whimsy, and passions about everything happening in the background of our daily life, from our work to our kids to our imaginary cats to politics to geeky stuff.
We lampooned the divisive American zeitgeist with tales of a POTUS Squirrel in our critter-filled backyard.
Help turn the first year of Background Noise Comics into LOVE LETTERS, EVERY DAY. This book is the first of many collections of the Ringo Award-nominated and Instagram fan-favorite comic.
Trombone Man: Ska’s Fallen Genius. A Jamaican Jazz Odyssey
The true tragic story of Skatalites’ trombonist Don Drummond, told as a comic book series.
Trombone Man takes the reader on a powerful emotional journey, blending historical fact, social history and a little bit of magical realism. Its written in a mixture of English and phonetically spelt Jamaican Patois. If you’re not familiar, the language takes a little getting used to but there’s a lexicon of words at the back for reference.
Issue #1 sees young Don running wild on the streets of Kingston in the early 1940s. His hard-working, single mother, Doris, is furious when two school teachers turn up at her door to report Don’s lack of school attendance. Doris’ attempts to discipline Don are futile and again he skips school.
Writer, Adam Reeves, and illustrator, Costantinos Pissourios, continue their epic comics-making journey to bring you Trombone Man: Ska’s Fallen Genius, the story of Don Drummond, the Skatalites and the birth of ska.
Both dedicated fans of Jamaican music, Adam and Costantinos have long been fascinated by the history, culture and the personalities within the world of ska, reggae and dancehall music. From a grain of an idea, to holding a printed comic book in our hands, creating Trombone Man is the culmination of our many combined years of involvement with Jamaican music projects; Adam having previously written a book and Costantinos having created his own illustrated tributes to Jamaica’s foundation singers and players.

The Seer Chronicles 1-3: Heroes and Havoc
Heroes Rise, Villains Fall, and Seer City Burns – Are You Ready to Join the Chaos?
COMMANDER IN CHAINS “Air Force One” meets “The Fugitive”
When President Rockwell is framed for murder, he leads the USA from a supermax cell while defending his innocence–and his life!
Commander in Chains is an (a)political action thriller in the vein of Air Force One, White House Down, or Olympus Has Fallen. It’s got more in common with TBS Superstation than C-SPAN, less CNN and more Snakes on a Plane.
Do you choke back tears when Bill Pullman delivers his Fourth of July address in Independence Day? That’s the feeling we’re chasing with this comic book. Struck with the title a few years back, we’ve built the main character and story to match: a Tom Clancy character trapped in a B-movie prison flick who’s too resolute to break in the face of immorality, and willing to back up his words with his fists when necessary. Think Ethan Hunt as the American President! Snake Plissken meets Captain America!!
Rook: Return To Sender
A series launch about a framed & disgraced cop who lost it all but refuses to give up his fight for justice–for himself & his family.
Rook: Return to Sender is about a former police officer, a former Metahuman Incident Corps (MIC) officer, who has been seemingly framed for a crime and is now a fugitive on the lam. His home & property seized, his badge stripped, his record blackened, and his family has had to leave Summit City for their own safety.
Jon Marks is a man who has lost it all. And he’s got nothing else to lose…
This chapter of his life opens up with a series of related crimes taking place by supervillains but the MICs and police have so far been unable – or unwilling? – to help. What’s going on? Why are metahuman bad guys after this tech from Meridian Enterprises, and what are they going to do with it all?

No oversight from the powered has allowed the city’s most demented serial killer to flourish and revel in his kills. Enter John Nock, a member of the crime-fighting World Warriors. Only Nock isn’t a superhero or, at the very least, he doesn’t think he is. All he’s got is a bow and some arrows.
Nock #1 is a 20-page comic while Nock #2 clocks in at 22 pages. As with previous Meltdown Press releases, each issue will be printed with 80# satin text interiors and an uncoated cardstock cover.
After one failed mission, Nock faces expulsion from the World Warriors, so he sets out to do the unthinkable. Wanting to prove his worth not to just himself, but to the superheroes of the world, Nock makes the decision to take down the Bagface killer once and for all—all by his lonesome.
