Clover Press has announced their latest Kickstarter campaign for Armored (Issues 3-5).

Written by Michael Schwartz (Zombie Town) with art by Ismael Hernandez, issues 1-2 were fully funded within an hour—readers can now enjoy the full story which is Sword in the Stone meets Stranger Things.

“Now that comic fans, comic creators, and comic book media sites have started to get their hands on Armored, it’s been absolutely thrilling to see such positive feedback for my first comic book series,” said Schwartz. “One of the most significant highlights has been receiving enthusiastic support from some of my all-time favorite creators, including Geoff Johns, Francis Manapul, Jeremy Adams, and Tim Sheridan. Geoff Johns has been a major inspiration to me throughout my screenwriting career, so having him not only read my debut comic but also offer such encouraging words about the series is truly a dream come true.”

The new campaign features covers by superstar artists David Mack, Becky Cloonan, Trevor Henderson, and Jeff Dickson. And each issue also features an additional pin-up by Matthew Therrien.

“We’re really impressed with what Michael and Ismael have delivered as their debut story. It’s a terrific foundation to a new world to explore, hitting all the notes of a great adventure series perfect for kids and adults alike,” said Clover Press Publisher, Hank Kanalz. “They stick the landing, and we can’t wait to share this with everyone.”
