The Indiegogo campaign for the Earthworm Jim comic ends Friday! I was backer #3, which I am very proud of.

A lot of people are Earthworm Jim fans because it was this groundbreaking classic video game and it’s a part of their childhood. Doug was my age when he created Earthworm Jim, and he had to sign away the character rights for the game to even be made. For the past 25 years he’s wanted to tell more stories with this character and had fans begging him to, but he couldn’t because of the copyright troubles. I’m excited for it because Doug TenNapel is an excellent storyteller and comic creator. But even more than that, I am just so happy that after decades of waiting, a creator has the opportunity to work with their own character again. That in and of itself is a very satisfying story.
