Greetings everyone!
The time has finally come. We've launched the Kickstarter for the first chapter of our new graphic novel, Legends of the Kaironauts! We've made a quick video for you to enjoy.

Why today?
Honestly, we debated a lot when exactly to launch our Kickstarter. Originally, we had planned on launching on August, but as that date came and went, we realized early on that September 20th was fast approaching, and we felt it was kismet for us to launch on that date.
On September 20th, 2017, Hurricane Maria made landfall in Puerto Rico and cut through the island. Like many both within the island and afar in the diaspora, we were personally touched by tragedy as a result of both the hurricane and its aftermath. In fact, Maria and the preceding hurricane Irma directly inspired me in telling this story.
After all, at its core Legends of the Kaironauts is a story about grief, and how we each process it in different ways.
Anyway, that's all for now. We'll be doing more updates throughout the campaign, diving deeper into some of the inspiration and progress of the graphic novel throughout the next month.
Until next time!
Best,
-Nick D.
