A Comic In Search of a Publisher F*ck Fate, Let's Dance by Derek Des Anges and Emma Weakley
This is a comic book in search of a publisher. It may also be in search of a more media-friendly title, but that would be said publisher's call.
Called F*ck Fate, Let's Dance – just without the asterisk – it's written by Derek Des Anges and painted by multiple-Sir Julius Vogel Award-winning Emma Weakley. It's about a drunken spaceship navigator and a basically unkillable social media influencer stumble upon a mind control chip trading ring operating out of a paradisal holiday planet. And it looks gorgeous.
They are looking for a publisher. Though they have just launched a Patreon…
Derek and Emma have enjoyed tremendous support from some mega fans over the years, both separately and as a team (we'll stop talking in the third person soon!) and we really appreciate this! We've come to Patreon to make it easier to share what we do with you more efficiently, and to provide ourselves with a little more impetus to get things out regularly, and also possibly to explore strange new worlds and new civilisations in a way that ends with Emma being able to afford new pens sometimes. But mostly to share the benefit of our joint, globe-spanning imagination with even more new friends!
Here, take a peek.
Oh and look, they've got a quote from a mutual friend.
"I'm always pleased to see Derek Des Anges writing, with his acute understanding of the horror we do to each other and the tactics we take to survive it." – Kieron Gillen
Your call, publishers, your call.
