Campaign Story
47 Furious Tails, Issue One!
Second Printing and a new cover!
We've created a new cover for the second press run. All issues shipped for this campaign are from the second printing.
47 Furious Tails is a twelve (12) issue limited comic book series that tells the story of the 47 ronin in a new way. Featuring anthropomorphic animals as the historic figures of this tale. Based on actual historic events, written by W.S. "Sam" Quinton and Illustrated by Alexia Veldhuisen (graduate of the famed Kubert School), this issue is done, copy is shipping from my printer and will be on hand in October.
Issue one is 28 pages, full color, printed in 6 by 9 inch digest format on high quality paper stock. This comic is crafted to last as a treasured addition to your collection. Click on the image below to watch a live stream testimonial from people who own this issue. A sample of pages from issue one are shown below.
You can get your copy of this beautiful comic directly from this campaign. I'll bag/board it, pack it in a gemini mailer (to keep it safe) and mail it to you right away (tier amount does include shipping).
Retailers:
47 Furious Tails, Issue One was successfully crowdfunded and released to backers in 2019. Since then, issue One has been remarkably well received and that first, short press run has sold very well for me and for those stores who have placed it on their shelves. I used to own a comic shop myself, and I know that every shop has its own unique needs. I've put together retailer tiers that leave healthy margins for your bottom line.
Wonder how 47 Furious Tails has done with other retailers? See the testimonial from The Gotham Underground Comic Shop in Ramsey New Jersey.

Huge THANK YOU to our first backers!
Your support is greatly appreciated
With the announcement that this site is shutting down, many of the folks who have told me they want to pledge have decided to wait until the KickStarter campaign for Issue 2 to pick this book up.
Individual and Retailer backers will have a number of option available in addition to those listed for this campaign.
I think the initial concept behind IndieCrowdfund is a good one. It’s to bad it’s shutting down so soon. I want to thank both of you who have backed this campaign. Your support is most appreciated. I hope to see you at the coming KickStarter campaign.
