Ani Wild Arrives On Kickstarter
Archie Dait writes,
Ani Wild has arrived. She's ten, and has a special ability. She can turn into animals, and uses this new found power to go on family-friendly adventures with her step-brother Tim. Fun is at the heart of this all-ages comic, and I think that is something we all need in our lives: more lighthearted fun!
I began my comic-creating-journey editing successfully crowdfunded comics Queen and Start Again. It was a great experience and it got me itching to write something of my own. At the time I was writing something pretty dark and heavy about my experience with depression, so I wanted another release which was a far cry from anything negative.
Luckily, I found an artist, by chance, who shared my passion for creating something lighthearted. After talking about Ani Wild my friend P.S. Brooks, a worldwide published illustrator in his own right, asked to see the script. The rest is history!
My dream is that people of all-ages will enjoy Ani Wild, and it can be a story that is read to kids before bed or to help them improve their reading too. As an Auntie I've found it difficult to find comic-specific content for my nephew, and he loves comic characters. Not a day doesn't go by without him mentioning the Hulk or Spider-Man, but it's not exactly a good idea to read those stories to a five year old before bed!
If you like the look of Ani Wild you can get on Kickstarter right now. Just go to this link, and you can find out more details. We have tons of comics available, including Queen and START AGAIN, which I was the editor on. Any support would be amazing!
