How Kickstarter Is Rebooting the Graphic Novel

Distractionskick

Distractions has the ability to appeal to readers of all ages. A graphic novel about a former bodyguard who is forced to face the prospect of parenthood, younger readers may be compelled by its action sequences and storytelling, while older audiences will likely appreciate its noir backdrop and attention to life's biggest responsibilities.

Yet if it wasn't for Kickstarter, Distractions would never have seen the light of day.

In July 2012, creator Wes Sturdevant raised $3,000 on the crowdfunding platform. That might not seem like much, but for some independent publishers, it's the difference between a dream and reality.
