Alan Moore has made his Kickstarter total to fund the last of his five Jimmy's End short films. And now he and Mitch Jenkins have added a stretch goal, a new film to make co-starring Moore, if they make it an extra £5,000 to £50,000. And they are almost there…

*FRANK & NICK MAKE YOU SICK*

Matchbright and Metterton have a strained relationship. It may be a professional one but as we all know, it's also one that crosses boundaries in more way than one. On one particularly drunken evening, they decide to wax lyrical and improv an obscene dialogue which rapidly spirals out of control.

Not the only comics legend on Kickstarter. Steve Ditko's publishing partner Robin Snyder is looking to republish Ditko's Lazlo's Hammer.

A hammer has a power available to all as a tool or a weapon. One man dramatically and publicly revealed what makes it creative, productive or destructive. See and read how anyone can be its victim or its abuser. See and read Laszlo's Hammer by Ditko coming next.

And James A Owen is collecting his entire Starchild run. That's what I know him from, not this modern day Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographic nonsense and well worth such a treatment…

All the stories, including the first two storylines, AWAKENINGS and CROSSROADS; the "Little Neil" short stories from the anthology NEGATIVE BURN; the long story "Hobblesmith;" the unfinished MYTHOPOLIS chapters that have never been reprinted; all the development sketches and notes; guest illustrations and art features from some of my pro friends; literally everything that had been associated with the title StarChild.

Almost 700 pages of material.
