Earlier this year, Dave and I sat down for a meeting.  We were putting together our thoughts, plans and objectives for 2013.  We poured over tons of ideas and concepts, as we hashed out what our immediate and long-term priorities were.  There came a point when I looked at Dave and said in all certainty, “This is the year that we make *%#@ happen.”

We’ve been working tirelessly on The Underground series, developing characters, plotting story arcs, and delving deep into research material.  After years of dedicated, mind-numbing work, we feel that the series is finally ready to make a very significant step.

‘The Quest To Infest’ was the first part of this step; designed to bring The Underground project to more and more readers, and professionals around the world.  This idea has relit a fire under both Dave and myself to push harder with our buggy endeavours, and find new ways to reach our goals.  Enter RocketHub.

RocketHub is a crowdfunding site, constructed to help creators and entrepenuers connect with peopel around the world and raise funds to launch their project.  With the combined efforts of many, great things can be acheived.  What’s even more exciting is that RocketHub has partnered up with A&E, adding a new level of power to the crowdfunding machine.  With the potential now to attract the attention of this television powerhouse, we couldn’t resist launching a project with RocketHub.

Our campaign has officially launched and it will continue until July 31st.  Our goal is to raise $10,000 in funding to produce the next issue of The Underground comic series, but also our first table top game “Colonies”.  Our extended plan is to use this opportunity as the springboard get The Underground into the hands of some key publishers in the industry, and build on the stories immense marketing and branding potential. 

The key to our success will be stirring up enough commotion…making a buzz.  We need to get The Underground into every set of hands possible.  I have unwavering faith, and conviction in the success this series will rise to become.  The journey to get there has been, and will continue to be an exciting one.  Dave and I are inviting you to take part in that journey.  Support the project in whatever way you can.  Fund where possible, or promote it by telling a friend.  This is The Quest to Infest, and we sincerely thank you for taking part.
