Jewish Comix Anthology Kickstarter!
Hi friends! I am excited to announce the kickstarter for the first-ever Jewish Comix Anthology! This 250-page hardcover book will contain the work of 47 Jewish artists including Art Spiegelman, Joe Kubert, Will Eisner, Harvey Pekar, Robert Crumb… and me!
From the description of the project on kickstarter:
When you hear the names Robert Crumb, Will Eisner, Joe Kubert or Pulitzer Prize winning author Art Spiegelman do you think simply of historic comic icons? Well did you know that Will Eisner adapted the little-known Jewish folk tale ‘The Rabbi and the Inquisitor‘ with a modern New York setting? Have you seen Robert Crumb’s interpretation of the legend of the Golem of Prague? When you think of Art Spiegelman does the short story ‘Prince Rooster‘ come to mind?
Whether you answered yes or no to the above questions, you should back the Jewish Comix Anthology: Volume 1! Our goal is to bring 47 comic book and graphic novel artists together – including dozens of these little-known Jewish stories by well-known comic artists – into print in one collection for you!
We’re bringing together artists from Canada, the US, Israel and the UK, making theJewish Comix Anthology: Volume 1 unlike anything you’ve ever seen before!
I am thrilled and honored to be included among this amazing group of artists. To support the kickstarter (and receive backer rewards ranging from a copy of the Anthology to signed art by some of the participating artists), click here! One of my original pages has already been claimed, but if you’re interested there is still one more of my original pieces of art up for bid.
A huge thank you to everyone who has supported this kickstarter! If you haven’t, I hope you’ll consider clicking here to back this exciting project!
