Van Jensen Gets His Leg Over On Kickstarter
In addition to writing Green Lantern Corps and The Flash and releasing an omnibus of the Pinocchio, Vampire Slayer graphic novels, Van Jensen is self-publishing a 180-page, full-color graphic novel through Kickstarter.
The Leg features the disembodied leg of Santa Anna adventuring through 1930s Mexico. It's a weird pastiche of fairy tales, Spaghetti Westerns and Mexican history featuring art by Jose Pimienta, who grew up in Mexico.
1938 Mexico, a century after Santa Anna lost his left leg in battle against French invaders. Now, mysteriously, the Leg has returned, and it discovers a new threat against its beloved country. As the Leg ventures across Mexico, it will encounter the strangest elements of Mexican folklore and history, and it will come face to face with its own turbulent legacy. A pastiche of Robert Rodriguez' Mexico trilogy and the surrealist paintings of artists Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, THE LEG is an intensely original spin on the Spaghetti Western genre.
Launching today on Cinco de Mayo, a holiday that marks Mexico's military triumph over France, the book is completely completed and money is being raised to cover the print bill.
The campaign has a $10,000 initial goal, but there is a $25,000 stretch goal to simultaneously publish a Spanish-language digital edition. Fancy a peek?
