There are a great deal of comic book jobs on Kickstarter, as well as we’ve featured a few at Comic Years, such as Stan Lee’s Backchannel Kickstarter. Every so often, we come across one that we just have to function – one that appears like the creators will modification the comics game one day. Black Vans is much more than that. referred to as an “LGBT/queer/POC cyberpunk super-hero comic,” writer Alex Smith as well as artist James Dillenbeck’s comic book is like nothing we’ve ever seen. The art, the story, the characters…none of this has been done before. Not even remotely. Not like this.

Black Vans takes location “in a Phuture Philadelphia, where hackers offer intel, communications, as well as surveillance for the slowly disappearing super-hero community.” The world that Dillenbeck produced in this cyberpunk comic book is absolutely stunning. However, we can’t appreciate a gorgeous world if there aren’t fantastic characters bringing it to life. as well as with Bo, Smith as well as Dillenbeck produced a superhero unlike any type of we’ve seen before. As Smith describes:

Bo is a plus-sized gay bear of Afro-Latino descent who always seems to be messing up. When it’s his time to step up as well as save the day, will he response the call?
Thanks to Dillenbeck’s art, before we even checked out any type of dialogue, it’s difficult not to like this character immediately. as well as we get from the cover:

The art is just incredible. like Michael Alred having a psychedelic fever dream. inspect out a few of the other promotion images:

And be sure to pledge for one of the actions prints before they run out. Alex as well as James are practically to their goal – let’s assist get them the rest of the way. Or, as custom goes each time we function a Kickstarter, it will reach funding best before we publish. in that case, still contribute. all of the additional funds can go to Black Vans #2!
