And Three Stretch Goals To Hit

Its hit its target but we have three stretch goals planned if we hit another three milestones: one at £750 for three 1990s issues digitally, one at £850 for the Face to Face photo book digitally and it we hit £1000 by the end of our campaign everyone also gets the Tripwire 21 anniversary book digitally…

Tripwire returned as a print magazine in 2020 when Covid-19 hit the world. But it did well enough that we did two further once a year magazines and then switched to a print quarterly.

This campaign is designed to offer digital versions of the comeback issues we have published since 2020, offering our readers the chance to fill in any gaps digitally. So we have featured: Flash, Hellboy, Fantastic Four, Grendel, Indiana Jones, Sandman, Doctor Who , Brubaker and Phillips and Daredevil. The campaign also offers our 224 page 30th anniversary book from back in 2022.

So it’s a short campaign with no add-ons, just 20 days to grab a digital Tripwire.

Tripwire has long had its fans in the worlds of comics, film, TV and genre:

“Tripwire is research done right celebrating and investigating the love of comic books.” said writer/ artist Jimmy Palmiotti (Harley Quinn, Jonah Hex, Pop Kill, Paper Films)

writer Alex Segura (Pete Fernandez book series, Dick Tracy writer) had this to say:

“Tripwire is a vibrant part of entertainment coverage – specifically comics and geek culture. Supporting them, we support ourselves.”

“Tripwire is always well-researched and enthusiastic, by people who truly care about the importance of story. It’s analytical without losing heart.” Said JH Williams III (artist, Echolands, Promethea, Batwoman)

Guillermo del Toro (Oscar winning director, The Shape Of Water, Pinocchio) has also been a long time fan too:

”Tripwire has been for over three decades the touchstone of comic book culture in the U.K and one of the leading periodicals dedicated to this narrative art form. Incisive, smart and always relevant.”

“Tripwire covers such a wide variety of topics in the world of news, entertainment and the arts, and covers them so well, that it’s pretty much become my go-to source for what’s going on in media. I know if Tripwire is covering a subject, it’s not only interesting, fun and informative, it’s also legit.” –Bill Sienkiewicz (legendary artist and illustrator)
