Idaho is a landlocked state in the Mountain West subregion of the Western United States of America. It shares a small portion of the Canada–United States border to the north, with the province of British Columbia. It borders Montana and Wyoming to the east, Nevada and Utah to the south, and Washington and Oregon to the west. The state's capital and largest city is Boise and the state has a population of approximately 1.8 million. And one of those 1.8 million, it seems, is starting a comic book company.
Idaho is best known for its agricultural sector including its potato crop, which makes up a third of the US' intake of potatoes. So… that's a lot of potatoes. 322,000 potatoes each year in the Snake River Lava Plateau alone. It also has a large Mormon population… All Mormon Comics All The Time? I know, I know, I'm reaching here, but what else is there?
Well, the only thing is the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con which would be the perfect time to launch such a… potato.
