Kickstartering that Lovise and Shealy
It's down to the crowdfunding wire for Couri Vine graphic novel
By Wayne Alan Brenner, 1:00PM, Tue. Dec. 5, 2017
Yeah, we told you about what Leah Lovise and Vanessa Shealy have been working their creative asses off on for a while now: a kid-friendly series of comics about a young lunar citizen who's resisting the treachery fomented by the cretin currently in charge of Earth's natural satellite.
Couri Vine is a stirring adventure, alright, and a perfect gift for the young 'uns in your care or acquaintance.
Never mind, even, how much the story might resonate with modern times – what with that orange shitgibbon of a POTUS now trying to rip chunks out of our national parks and feed them to his favorite corporations – because this rollicking science-fiction tale of the future totally stands on its own.
Or, rather, it's gonna stand on its own … with a little help from the comics-loving Kickstarter crowd, as the clock ticks down on the current campaign and you make a joyous difference and get yourself a delightful item or two for the upcoming holidays.
Couri Vine?
"Girl. Nerd. Superhero."
Hell, yes – we all know a few of those, don't we?
Let's give 'em some props – all the way to the moon!
