Link  DEEP SEA GRAPHIC NOVEL.
Welcome to Paperfilms newest Kickstarter DEEP SEA: Written by acclaimed duo Jimmy Palmiotti [ Punisher-Harley Quinn-Painkiller Jane] and Justin Gray [ The Resistance- Jonah Hex and Powergirl], with stunning visuals from award-winning artist Tony Akins[ Fables and Wonder woman] and masterful colors by Paul Mounts. DEEP SEA is a standalone 48 page graphic novel that plunges readers into a world where memory, mystery, and monsters collide.

We introduce you to Paul Barry who was once a fearless deep-sea diver—until a catastrophic mission swallowed his crew and the ship they were on and left him drowning in guilt. Decades later, long after he’s hung up his gear, the impossible happens: the missing vessel is recovered, and he is called to the scene to discover what awaits him. what surfaces isn’t just wreckage—it’s a terrifying truth buried in the abyss. Now Paul must confront the ghosts of his past and the ancient secret that’s been waiting in the dark. This is the story of Lost love that lingers like sonar echoes, where Exploration of the unknown opens the doors and unleashes a primordial force, older than myth and hungry for reckoning, and that is just the beginning.

DEEP SEA is more than a monster story—it’s a high-concept adventure wrapped in emotional introspection, with the pulse of a blockbuster and the soul of a tragedy. This was originally published in a three-part serial many years ago for Dark Horse Comics, but the team got together and added three more chapters, and all of this is presented for the first time here!

If you’re drawn to stories like The Abyss, Sphere, or The Thing, but crave something more intimate and emotionally resonant, DEEP SEA will pull you under—and you’ll be glad it did. This is an all-ages story. 48 pages.

Packrat & Thunderbunny 1-2

The long awaited 2nd issue of a humorous, action-packed superhero buddy comic book. This time with an origin story and a new character!

Current Funding: $4,108
Funding Goal: $2,000
Days Left: 15
Link: Packrat & Thunderbunny 1-2
Packrat & Thunderbunny is an indie-created, humorous, action-packed, buddy superhero comic book. Think Looney Tunes meets Marvel/DC. Drawn in a bold, brightly-colored cartoony style, this comic book is a kid-friendly fun and funny romp that pays tribute to the classic superhero comic book genre of heroes vs villains.

Packrat and Thunderbunny are two characters that are both best friends that happen to be superheroes (however, as you saw in Issue #1, one of them is unaware they are best friends yet). 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 24-page comic book is Part 2 of a planned 5-comic story arc, that began with Issue #1. See the previous campaign page for more details.

The Green Archer

A 700-year epic comic adventure blending historical fantasy, sci-fi, revenge thriller, and urban fantasy across six interwoven stories.
Current Funding: $3,901
Funding Goal: $3,200
Days Left: 8
This 150 page anthology covers 700 years of The Green Archer, across 6 stories, 3 short stories and three full-length comics. But, it also tells the story of The Green Archer in print and film over the last 102 years and, if we are funded, it includes a short documentary on the history.

The Green Archer is the defender of Garre Castle. But, there have been many Green Archers over the last 700 years. Thanks to Abyss of Time at Siccar Point (a real thing). The Green Archer can heal and live for a very long time, but The Green Archer is not immortal.

This means we get to tell different Green Archer stories from different times, using different writers and different artists. See below for some of the authors and artists!

So, This Isn’t a Green Arrow Rip-Off?

We get that a lot. And no, much like Hydrox came before Oreo, The Green Archer came first (1923). In fact, Mort Weisinger, said he took inspiration from 1940 The Green Archer movie serial:

BUBBLE GUM RAZOR – #1 – MURDER PODCAST- SUSPENSE – SLASHER

Kenji Thompson is an investigative podcaster known for his hit true-crime podcast. What happens when he is the target of a slasher kill

Current Funding: $1,467
Funding Goal: $3,000
Days Left: 13

UBBLE GUM RAZOR is a razor-sharp thriller where true crime turns deadly real.

Kenji Thompson built his reputation exposing monsters on his hit podcast, Malevolent Killers—but now the monster might be him. Three years ago, he obsessed over a chain of brutal murders across three major Florida cities, a case that froze in the shadows with no suspect caught. Now, as Kenji records the final season of his show, the nightmare reignites—new murders in the same cities, staged with chilling precision… and every clue points directly at him

Hunted by the police, stalked by an unseen killer, and drowning in a conspiracy that’s been waiting years to spring shut, Kenji’s only hope is to solve the case before he becomes its final victim.

Told in a gripping dual narrative, each issue opens with a haunting murder episode straight from Kenji’s podcast, then slams into a breathless race against time as he fights to clear his name. But the deeper he digs, the more one truth becomes certain—someone knows Kenji better than he knows himself.

Cabra Cini/Geek-Girl: Exodus Complete Crossover

Super-Heroes meets Weirdness in the Geek-Girl/Cabra Cini: Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman Crossover!

Current Funding: $4,046
Funding Goal: $1,508
Days Left:  17

Cabra Cini routinely utilizes her magik to access a dimension called The Infinite – ‘Limbo’s crazy cousin, locked away in the attic’ – which for those who trespass upon it can serve as a dimensional gateway between where they are and wherever they want to go. A boon for Cabra in finding her ‘hits’. But the ruler of The Infinite, The Rook, doesn’t like Cabra abusing his dimension this way – and throws everything he can at her, physically and mentally, to ‘dissuade’ her from doing so.

NOW: Drug-dealer Jacob Trencher has been robbed, shot and left for dead – but using his occult magik he has survived: and hired Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman Cabra Cini to find the person responsible and take care of things… which is going to put Cabra on a collision course with Geek-Girl, as that person is a member of her new Super-Team!
