Hello!

Yesterday on the Lakeshore Comics social media accounts I posted the below image asking people to caption what J'nor is thinking.  I thought it would be fun to share it here as well!  Make the caption funny, serious, anything you want.  Reply to me here or email me at [email protected]

We'll pick the best one and I'll letter the caption into the image and post it in an update here and on social media, with your name attached to it so you can brag to all of your friends!

We are currently 82% funded with 60 backers!  Thank you so much for your support with this campaign! 


Other Kickstarter News:

My Friend Ben Lacy just launched Shark of War on Kickstarter today!

Shark of War Description from Ben's Kickstarter Page:

"For four issues, we've told the tale of a badly injured massive great white shark, who was rebuilt by a black ops military program into a weapon programmed to enforce US Law.  He escaped. He stopped criminals so effectively that the Mob hired his co-creator to create monsters to stop him. And they almost succeeded.

But he survived, and now it's time for the final battle.

With issue 5, the Shark of War story arc is done. Is the Shark of War done? Well, we'll find out, and now you'll be able to read the whole story all at once."

On the topic of great projects on Kickstarter, check out this awesome project from our friends over at Dren Productions LLC!

About Flesh Eating Cheerleaders from Outer Space:

We love those old classic horror B-Movies from the 60s and 70s. We wanted to try and recreate the feeling of those old horror movies with this story. And who better to target on this then a bunch of college cheerleaders.

When a meteor crashes in the middle of campus, the students at Pullman University didn't realize that they were being invaded. These space creatures are able to inhabit and take over the human body. So, what happens when a group of cheerleaders are caught in the middle? They become these flesh-eating cannibals, of course.

Soon, the problem isn't going to be the creatures, it's going to be the monsters that these cheerleaders become.

I hope you are enjoying your spring so far!  Have a great day, we'll talk again soon!
