Honestly I would love to see a Zenescope movie, but with 7 days to go, and only 48% funded, we might not get the Zenescope Kickstarter project off the ground, so if you have a couple of dollars, you might want to send it their way. We have worked with Zenescope for years, including our own special limited edition cover for the Monster Hunters Survival Guide Number 1 with an awesome Sasquatch and dead bodies in the back ground. Their comic books are industry standard setting, and always awesome in the longer run to read, share, own, and otherwise get your hands on.
The Project breaks down like this:
We, at Zenescope Entertainment, find it hard to believe that Grimm Fairy Tales is approaching its 75th issue. When we started publishing the comic book back in 2005, we just hoped it would make it to issue six so we could collect it into a graphic novel. But at some point it took on a life of its own; we began to dream of all the possibilities and mediums it could be translated into. Wouldn’t it make a great live action TV series? What about an animated anthology? We had some interest from different studios and producers but for one reason or another a deal never materialized. We never gave up hope of Grimm Fairy Tales becoming more than a comic book but it began to look like a real long shot.
Then we met a very talented director named Jon Schnepp. Jon has directed a ton of great stuff like The Venture Bros. and Metalocalypse and he loved our series. He got the material and had an incredible take on turning it into an animated series right from the start. We began to think that maybe we didn’t need the Hollywood system to turn Grimm Fairy Tales into one seriously cool animated series. Jon has done a ton of work with Titmouse and he knew they would get behind a project like this. Grimm Fairy Tales has a tremendous, loyal fan base and we felt that this was something they would want to see. All we needed was the money to produce it. That’s why we’re here at Kickstarter. Through this incredible site and with the help of our amazing fans we can make this series a reality. And best of all we can make it the way it should be made…bad ass and sexy.
So if you have a couple of dollars, we have seven days to make this project a reality – head on over to Kickstarter, and even if you can only donate five or ten dollars that is at least something to see your support for Zenescope, their awesome talented writers, and their awesome talented drawers, inkers, and the whole rest of the story.
