The comic series 2ND SHIFT recently started a Kickstarter campaign in order to get funding to put out a trade for the first five issues of the series. All the issues are already completed, so the money for the book will go to printing the book as well as the printing of issue #5.
Artist and co-plotter Scott Lost is working with writer Eburonson and colorist Joaquin Pereyra on this story which is about a group on inexperience heroes who work in the real world during the day, but fight crime at night. Check out the video below where Lost explains the Kickstarter.
Welcome to The 2nd Shift 2015 Kickstarter! This project is to fund printing of ISSUE #5 AND the TRADE PAPERBACK (collecting Issues 1-5) of the Creator-Owned series, The 2ND SHIFT! Our initial goal of $5,700 will help us pay for the printing costs of issue 5 & the TPB. Our secondary goal of $7,500 will help us pay our crew and the Kickstarter fees. Our first STRETCH GOAL of $8,900 will allow us to reprint issue #1 with a brand new cover which will be included in all rewards $25 and over! Other STRETCH GOALS will start at $9,000 which will include extra pages of back matter in the TPB, Spot UV, Hardcover if we're getting crazy, and any other things you guys can think of. Let us know what you want! First things first, lets hit that first goal...
For rewards, to get a physical copy of this trade, you can pledge at the $25 level, which also comes with issue #5 of the book and a B&W silent PDF version of the issue as well. Pledges range up to $1,000 where you can win the original cover art for certain issues of the series, along with a slew of other stuff too.
