Are YOU ready for an adventure? Don’t be scurred…
Colorful characters, mysterious villains, a secret lab, and an experimental robot!
When we see a Kickstarter campaign run by a well-respected & talented creator and a project which we support fully, it’s our duty to share the campaign with PopCultHQ’s audience and spread the word. The latest graphic novel from creator & writer Dave Dwonch (Vamplets, Double Jumpers, Infinite Seven, Jenny Zero, Banshees) is one such campaign.
Not only is Dwonch one of the coolest people in the comic book industry, the smart storyteller injects a huge dose of fun in every title he produces – regardless the genre or target audience. After his massively successful debut on Kickstarter with CYRUS PERKINS AND THE HAUNTED TAXI CAB and two fully-funded original graphic novels from his SPORES trilogy (PROM OF THE DEAD, THE BROKEN CIRCLE), Dave has returned to the crowdfunding platform once again with THE AUTOMATON – a 100-page hardcover OGN sure to be an instant classic for children of all ages! The owner & head of Hellbrain Productions has re-teamed with artist Santi Guillen (Mind Palace) and colorist Arnaldo Robles (Jenny Zero) for this bad boy. THE AUTOMATON is live on Kickstarter and in its final stretch! Join the cool kids and back the campaign today!

About Kickstarter:
Kickstarter campaigns make ideas into reality. It’s where creators share new visions for creative work with the communities that will come together to fund them.
Creators always control how the work comes together—no 100-page grant applications, no donors demanding you modify your message, no last-minute edits from investors. When backers chip in funding and help spread the word, they too become part of these independent works.
