Murder at Pikes Peak Boston Metaphysical Society Comic Launches Crowdfunding Campaign for New Story Set in Colorado
SALEM, OR. Madeleine Holly-Rosing, writer/creator of the graphic novel series Boston Metaphysical Society announced the launch of her campaign to fund the printing of issues three and four of her new four issue mini-series, Boston Metaphysical Society: Mystery at Pikes Peak. Both issues will be 32 pages with each story being 29 to 30 pages, respectively, plus bonus content. Daniela Rivera has come on board to illustrate the last two issues of the series, while Angela Wu is creating the covers for all four issues. “These last two issues in the story were a long time coming, but I’m very excited to see them come to life,” remarked Ms. Holly-Rosing. “And Daniela (Dany) has done a terrific job taking up the reins.”
Variant covers and variant metal covers will be offered with art by Yishan Li and Gwynn Taveres. “I always wanted to work with Yishan, so this is a treat, and I was thrilled that Gwynn could come on board to do a cover,” commented Ms. Holly-Rosing.
Ms. Holly-Rosing brings her background of TV and feature film writing to the world of comics along with a love of history and science fiction. The comic began online eleven years ago and went to print with a special twenty-four page edition a year later. The original series received an Honorable Mention at the 2013 Geekie Awards and was nominated for Best Comic/Graphic Novel in 2014. It was also consistently nominated for best webcomic by the Steampunk Chronicles Readers’ Choice Awards in 2013, 2014 and 2015. In 2019, Source Point Press re-published the original six issue mini-series and the subsequent four sequels in 2020/21.
A veteran of crowdfunding, Ms. Holly-Rosing has successfully funded her entire graphic novel series on Kickstarter along with her first ever audio drama, The Ghost Ship. This new campaign will include a brand new compound bow lapel pin, an art deco style owl bookmark, while the variant covers will be available as add ons and in several reward tiers.
The Boston Metaphysical Society: Mystery at Pikes Peak campaign will end on November 12 and has a funding goal of $8000. For more information, please visit the Kickstarter Homepage or http://www.bostonmetaphysicalsociety.com
