Best-selling comics and prose author Greg Rucka’s webcomic Lady Sabre and the Pirates of the Ineffable Aether is finally coming to print–as the result of a Kickstarter campaign to fund its publication.The steampunk adventure series, co-created with Rick Burchett and edited/coded by Eric Newsom, launched a Kickstarter campaign just over a week ago and was funded within a day or so for its initial $27,500 goal. Having generated nearly $80,000 at this point, Rucka and his collaborators have added a number of stretch goals, including the production of a companion book and an annotated scriptbook–all of which they’ve already surpassed.So…now what? The writer says that the campaign is far from over, and that he won’t be able to relax until the books are in the readers’ hands. Rucka joined ComicBook.com to discuss the ins and outs of their successful Kickstarter campaign and where he hopes to go from here.You can check out the campaign video below, and pre-order your copy of the Lady Sabre trade here.Check back tomorrow for the rest of our interview with Greg Rucka, in which we talk more about the process and characters of Lady Sabre and the Pirates of the Ineffable Aether.
