I love the contrast of a bitter prince turning into actual candy. The look of the book reminds me of Adventure Time, which brings a unique vibe to the story.
"Lucifer Licorice is an all-ages comic series perfect for fans of The Regular Show, Adventure Time, Stephen Universe, or Summer Camp Island, and will make you feel all the feelings. A spoiled brat prince is turned into a licorice monster by a candy witch and must learn to stop being so bitter to break the curse."

Wells is one of our frequent collaborator. He's written incredibly, whimsical stories in both volumes of Bi Visibility, and now he's here to tell an even "deeper" story.
"Depths: Book One is a 112 page graphic novel about grief, depression, and the strength it takes to carry on. It's a story about overcoming impossible odds when even taking a single step seems overwhelming. It's the story that made us want to make comics."

Kickstarter is for everyone! I really love when I see comic creators/publishers that come from different sides of the market, including the direct market. Bad Idea has had a unique distribution vision since the day they launched, and I'm glad Kickstarter is now part of that vision.
"MEGALITH is an epic of unparalleled detail and artistry. The result of a mammoth five year production journey where no expense was spared. A monument such as this demands an equally worthy presentation. We need your help to make that a reality."

A very unique take on a comic as the author explores his emotional state after being robbed by gunpoint.
"Nothing changes your life quite like a gun pointed at your face. I learned this lesson one summer night, walking home from campus with two of my roommates. Shadow of a Gun is a graphic memoir that chronicles our mugging and ensuing adventure through the criminal justice system. Through this story I explore the physical and emotional toll these events took on myself and our household."
