Ron Marz Writes Your Script!
over 5 years ago – Mon, Dec 17, 2018 at 12:25:37 PM

Good morning, everyone! This morning, as we make our push toward our goal, we’ve added a brand new, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to the Harken’s Raiders campaign!

Legendary comics scribe Ron Marz will write a comic script of your choosing, working from your outline, up to 20 story pages. For a pledge of $2,000, Ron Marz will bring his decades of comics experience to bear on your story, working closely with the backer to bring their storyline to fruition. One revision pass is included in the reward. Note that no artwork is included in this reward. This level also includes physical copies of both Harken’s Raiders and Black Book: The Art of Darryl Banks.

With just five days left in the campaign, time is running out to reserve Ron’s services!

Good morning, Raiders! Today we’d like to tell you about the eight-page Harken’s Raiders bonus story that looms on the horizon.

Upon reaching the $20K level, we unlock an exclusive eight-page backup story starring Alfie the bulldog in his own heroic adventure! Writer Ron Marz, colorist Ross Hughes, and letterer Buddy Beaudoin will be joined by Avengers artist (and dog lover!) Sean Izaakse to bring this canine crusade to life!

Meet the Raiders!

Happy Sunday! Let’s take a closer look at our Harken’s Raiders cast of characters, shall we?

Harken: From a family with a long history of military service, James Harken leads his S.O.E. team behind enemy lines.

Dinorio: Italian-American, Brooklyn born and raised, Gold Gloves boxer, BAR gunner. Obviously, a Dodgers fan.

Quinn: Irish-American from the Bronx, gunner’s assistant. Dinorio’s best friend despite being a Yankees fan.

Chen: Second-generation Chinese-American from San Francisco, medic/radio operator who left medical school to enlist when the war broke out.

Bjorgen: The Squad’s corporal is a giant of a man from Minnesota who traces his heritage back to Norway. Speaks fluent German.

Alfie: The team’s precocious unofficial mascot. What’s a World War 2 story without a bulldog?

You can get to know more about our loveable cast in the pages of Harken’s Raiders, available in both physical and digital formats.
