Paradox Girl Closes in on Kickstarter Goal for Issue Two

I have to say we don’t post much about comic book Kickstarters but that doesn’t mean we aren’t interested in helping to spread the word about independent artists looking to bring their creations to the masses; I spend so much time sorting through gaming Kickstarters sent my way – most of which I don’t find thrilling enough to see the light of day here on TGG –  that a ton of cool comic projects fly completely under my radar.

Yet a mighty fun looking comic is aiming to bring a second issue your way so you might just want to give Paradox Girl a look. Brought to you by the duo of writer Cayti Bourquin and artist Yishan Li, by way of Hana Comics, Paradox Girl mixes SF time travel with a heavy dose of humor and wraps it all up in some pretty sweet “manga” style artwork. You can snag the PDFs of issue one and the upcoming issue two for a $5 pledge or shoot the works and get physical copies and the PDFs of both for $10. As of this writing Paradox Girl is less than $500 shy of its funding goal.

About the project:

A Girl Without A Past

Paradox Girl doesn’t have an origin story the way that other heroes might. Paradox Girl has gone back in time to fix her own past so many times, the actual truth of where and how things started has been overwritten. Even she (at least the one we now see) doesn’t know who she was. She’s a living paradox

A Woman Without A Future

PG’s time travel powers aren’t bound by the normal rules of cause and effect. Consequences can come before actions. A constantly shifting past means a constantly changing future, the two blending into an endless present. Her timeline criss-crosses over itself again and again. Consequently, she runs into herself a lot—and we mean a lot.

A Hero Without A Clue

Where one Paradox Girl shows up, another one isn’t far behind, there to fix whatever the first one’s done, or vice versa. Paradox Girl does a lot without thinking of consequences, since she can always get a do-over. Your expectations will be confounded…

Help Us Make More!

We love Paradox Girl, and we think you will too. We’ve made one comic “A Day in the Life of a Paradox” with stunning art by Yishan Li, and the second is ready to print. We need your help to print and distribute the first two issues. If this Kickstarter is a success, we’ll be able to make more Paradox Girl comics!
