Independent comic book creator and Sweet Comics founder Clint Stoker recently launched a crowdfunding campaign for Downcast Volume 4: Hunting Ground, an 80-page sci-fi graphic novel.

This time around, the campaign is being conducted on the Sweet Comics website rather than conventional crowdfunding platforms. The project is already fully funded, having raised 138% of its original goal at the time of this writing.

Written by Stoker and featuring illustrations by Ignacio Lazaro (chapters 1 and 3) and Eric Weathers (Chapter 2), and colors by Damian Penalba, Downcast 4: Hunting Ground continues the story of the supernatural world of Strata.

Here’s the brief pitch taken from the Downcast: Hunting Ground campaign page:

Jax has teamed-up with Monstro to hunt the influx of gods entering the city of Strata. Joanne is on a mission of her own to uncover Carver’s tragic history.

The lines between friend and foe are blurred in the latest installment of Downcast.

Backers can get a digital version of Downcast 4: Hunting Ground for $12, while physical copies start at $20. If you have more cash to spend, you can also receive the following tchotchkes and extras:

• Multiple copies of the book
• Variant covers
• A t-shirt
• Trading cards
• Copies of the first 3 Downcast volumes if you want to catch up
• Other (non-Downcast) Sweet Comics titles

It is also worth noting that there is an additional shipping charge starting at $6 for those in the United States.
