No, this is not a watch, it is not about watches, it has nothing to do with watches, but time travel is involved, and the man behind it is one of my very best friends. So if you are a comic nerd (like I was back in the day), or if have a kid who likes comics, have a look at Future Girl. It even has a character who owns a store called The Time Bum. It isn’t me, but apparently it’s a pretty catchy name. Enjoy! – TB
Pixabits, in collaboration with Arledge Comics, has launched their Kickstarter campaign for the inaugural issue of Future Girl, an all-ages indie comic.
Born of Democracy… Defender of Free Will… The Future Is Watching. After a fateful encounter one distant Halloween night, Future Girl discovers there’s more to being a hero than a flashy costume or billowy cape. Aided by her faithful sidekick – the ever anxious Steadfast – and guided by The Horologist – an ancient and mysterious clock maker – Future Girl stops evil in its tracks no matter where or when it may strike. She is a warrior for truth, a beacon for justice, and defender of the human spirit. These are the adventures of Future Girl.
Future Girl speaks to all of us. She is all of us. “Future Girl reminds us that our future doesn’t belong to us alone, and that it is incumbent on each of us to remember that the choices we make, good and bad, affect more than just our own lives,” says Future Girl creator and Pixabits’ founder, Ross Dannenberg.
If you grew up watching Captain Planet or you binge watch Where in the World is Carmen San Diego? with your kids, this comic is sure to please. In the words of Miranda Davila, principal artist for Future Girl: “if someone was a fan of the old Teen Titans show, they’d like this. It’s got the same vibe, funny and action-packed but with life lessons people would take to heart.”
Back Future Girl today on Kickstarter. The Future Is Watching.
