Independent comic creator Michael Oden recently launched a crowdfunding campaign for The Embrace 2, a 57-page follow-up to the first issue that was successfully crowdfunded in 2021.

The project is already fully funded, having raised more than $6 thousand at the time of this writing.

Written by Oden (SPQR, Judex, American Bliss) and featuring illustrations by Dean James (The Embrace) and colors by Eugen Betivu (The Lost Pages), The Embrace is a supernatural adventure inspired by dark superhero stories such as The Crow.

Here’s the official pitch taken from The Embrace 2’s Indiegogo campaign page:

Backers can get a copy of The Embrace 2 (along with a digital version) for $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 glow-in-the-dark variant
• An Embrace plushie toy
• A collector box
• T-Shirt
• Sticky Hand
• Miniprints
• An Embrace Standee
• Original artwork
• Copies of the first issue of The Embrace if you want to catch up

It is also worth noting that there is an additional shipping charge starting at $8 for those in the United States.
