 A European comic book adaptation of The Shadow of the Vulture? Yes please!

$39,000 goal? That's aiming a bit too high. I'll contribute and hope they get it but I'm not optimistic. Which is a shame because I would love to see more REH comics, especially those made overseas.

Wow I didn't notice that. It does seem kind of ridiculous. Well no harm in pledging and hoping for the best.

Thanks Garbanzo.
Unfortunately, it looks like they're asking for too much £$. They shoulda let fans of REH know about this project on social media before they started the campaign; especially on forums like this one and the REH Facebook page and other REH related and comic book forums, I can't see them making £30 thousand.
I like the covers and posters, but the interior artwork looks average, not really that exciting.
I dunno how far Roy Thomas & Rafael Kayanan got with their Shadow of the Vulture adaptation, I'd love to see them finish it.

Does anyone know the email for the guy who owns Ablaze? Maybe he'd throw some money their way and publish it through Diamond.

Yeah, it'd be great if Ablaze helped out, they're not gonna make it at Kickstarter. Unfortunately, Ablaze look like they only translate books that have already been published in Europe, I'm not certain if that is the case, but it seems that way. I hope I'm wrong. |

I was going to back this, but at $55 shipped to the USA for the early bird special (physical copy & t-shirt), it was a bit too much for my wallet. But the final update announcing the cancellation was posted "for backers only".
For anyone that backed this, can you please let us know why this was cancelled? Will they try relaunching at a lower goal perhaps? Thanks!

Dear friends, Due to so many factors related to the global covid emergency we are not getting any near to our kickstarter goal...so unfortunately we have to abort the project on this crowdfunding platform...sorry. But! We are not giving up and we are going to complete the comic book adaption anyway so stay tuned on our social media pages...you definitely will read "THE SHADOW OF THE VULTURE" adaptation by Chermaz and Francesconi. We wish you all happy holidays and a great 2021! See you soon fellas! GC COMICS |

Will they try relaunching at a lower goal perhaps? Thanks! They raised less than $3k against a target of around $30k and if I read it right that was only to cover issue 1 of 2 . I reckon they should talk it over with Red Sonja Corp. who own the rights to be both SonJa and SonYa to try to get it done. Doubt Cabinet would need to be involved as the story is supposedly PD.

I wouldn't blame COVID for setting your goal too high but I'm glad they're soldiering on. They should really reach out to Ablaze, this would be a fine companion to the Cimmerian.
