Clownfish Studios is bringing you a classic ’80s style adventure. It’s like The Goonies… on an airship.

Thaddeus Windell’s greatest treasure is out there, and it’s up to young mage Crimson Rhen and the crew of a rundown airship called The True North to find it! But will they find it in time? Crimson Rhen of the True North is a race against the clock filled with action, adventure, comedy and heart!

The Details…

• A full color 6″ x 9″ hardcover graphic novel, over 130 pages long!
• The prequel to the Shadowbinders webcomic!
• The book is nearly complete, it just needs to be lettered and printed!
• Crimson Rhen of the True North is part one of a two-part story!
• The first brand new comics project from Clownfish Studios in many years, with more on the way!

The Team…

• Kambrea Pratt (aka Geeky Sparkles) – Story / Script
• Thom Pratt (aka Kneon) – Script / Edits
• José Garcia (credits include Dreamworks TV, Netflix, Nick, Cartoon Network) – Artwork

Sample Pages (Unlettered)…

Offered Again: Shadowbinders 1 & 2!

See where it all began! Also available in this campaign are hardcover collections of Shadowbinders, the classic fantasy webcomic series that introduced the world of Belatyr and its most famous rogue mage, Crimson Rhen. Read (or re-read) the original webcomics that follow the adventures of the adult Crimson Rhen and Mia White, a girl from our Earth who is transported to Belatyr!

It’s about more than just *this* campaign…

• This campaign covers printing costs and allows us to recoup production expenses, which we paid in advance.
• It’s about more than just this project. Our campaigns help fund future Clownfish Studios projects! 
• Help support the creation of brand new, independently owned IP!

Here’s more about the history of the Crimson Rhen project, and why it’s so important for us to see it finally produced!

Risks & Challenges

We’ll try our very best to fulfill on time, but sometimes unforeseen obstacles do pop up.

• We’ve successfully delivered multiple crowdfunding campaigns and merchandise pre-orders through our online store at ShopClownfish.com. 
• The book is nearly complete! It just needs lettered and a few more pages completed.
• We’re giving a liberal shipping date because of unanticipated delays with printing due to “supply chain issues.” Yes, this is a very real thing that’s affecting a lot of comic book and game publishers these days.
• If the books are going to ship later than the estimated shipping date for whatever reason, we will be sure to communicate this to backers ASAP.

Thank you for your support! Let’s set sail for new adventures together!
