Support Kickstarter Campaign Idols#1

Near Future Shocks

Idols is a new Hungarian comic book created by Milan Kovacs currently funding on kickstarter and here’s a few details…

idols is a comic series taking place in the near future, around 2053. The story in short: in mysterious circumstances a worldwide blackout happens. After that arrive the so-called “orbs” and 9 months later the “chims” are born. This is the moment where our story picks up and we get a glimpse at Zeus’s life with various flashbacks over the season. Season 1 Episode 1 (issue #1) is 28 pages long and will be presented in our official “AllStar size” which is 158 x 234 mm (6.22 x 9.25″) with thick protective matte cover & printed on premium paper inside and out.

who are the idols?

In the year 2053 people are still living their everyday life but a lot has changed over the past 30 years too. Religions barely exist and social media took over almost everything: politics, learning, ideals, beauty and even relationships. Everything is fake. Also nothing is fake if it’s on the internet. That makes it real for some. Influencers are being worshipped online and even offline too. A select few is taking advantage of this phenomenon and they name themselves “idols”.

what is special about idols?

idols will be told in seasons, not volumes like a regular comic series. The first season of idols will consist of 4-5 issues in various lengths with tons of extra material. idols will be a multimedia phenomenon that dances between the virtual world & our own reality. We already have the idols as live-action characters in our video above with their own music theme.

All physical copies of idols have an NFC (near-field communication) chip sticker on the inside front cover. All of the extra material will be written on that NFC-chip individually. Your copy will not only be signed but also dedicated to you by this unique chip. Don’t worry if you don’t have NFC-reader on your phone we’ll include a QR-code of the same data. We plan on releasing a new short film (like the campaign video) and hours of behind the scenes footage for our Backers for each Kickstarter campaign including this one.

Our concept & variant cover artist Sandor Debreczeni will turn you into an actual idol from a photograph you send us. You get the digital file if you are a digital backer & you also get a mini-print of it if you are a physical backer. Strictly limited to 5 for only £50!
