Presented by Arledge Comics: After a cosmic incursion, David gets a different superpower for every song his suit plays! Too bad it’s stuck on shuffle, and the powers end when the song does…
Add in living doodles causing havoc around town, and David is in for a wild summer vacation.
Take the wacky action of Ben 10, some character drama of My Hero Academia, some cosmic nonsense from Spider-Man: Enter The Spider-verse, and filter it through the prism of someone who has spent way too much time making action scenes in their head to songs, and you got Shuffle.

David’s summer vacation started as average as can be, until his brother’s old mp3 player was transformed into a super-powered suit! Now David will be spending his summer vacation as Shuffle, the playlist-powered superhero!
Every song played in the suit gives David a new superpower, but it’ll only last until the song ends. And… the suit is stuck on shuffle. Luckily his best friend Megan is there to help him figure out his powers. But will that be enough to deal with living doodles popping up around town? And how will Shuffle deal when the threat comes from a place he never expected?
Guess you better press play and find out, huh?
Shuffle is an action-filled all-ages superhero graphic novel. It’s got some wild superhero action, stylish dynamic artwork, a character-driven story, and the taco incident. This is also the only comic that has 1) a soundtrack featuring amazing musical artists of all genres from around the world and 2) builds the superpowers of the main character based on those songs!

We estimate it will take 13 months from preorder to fulfillment. The script is finished, and some pages have been completed in preparation for the preorder campaign. The book should be finished in seven months. Our plan is to release the digital copies as chapters, giving our supporters the book as it’s completed. We’re budgeting another 5-6 months for prepress, printing, and shipping. The complete digital copy will be released as soon as it’s ready (before printing).
Just in case you're not watching this page like a hawk: We're funded!! We've edited our overall goal because we've had some exciting developments in Shuffle production and funding outside Zoop. 😀
Keep your eyes peeled, because we're going to be dropping some exciting announcements later this week!
Also, if you're not watching this page like a hawk... we need to talk about that. 😉
Welcome to the Shuffle campaign! We see a lot of you took advantage of the first 24 hour early bird special -- well, we're revealing today a SECOND 24 hour early bird -- buy the book and you get free stickers!
Thanks so much to everyone who's shown the project some love so far. Please help spread the word so we can make this book a reality!
Zoop does not store or keep your credit card info. Stripe simply holds the credit card info until the end of a successful campaign and then charges it. It is strictly for this one time use and won't charge it ever again.
We use Stripe for checkout because it is VERY secure. They exceed industry security standards and are trusted by thousands of companies, including Amazon, Lyft, Slack, Shopify, and Airbnb, who use Stripe's software tools to accept payments. Their interface is pre-made by them and we don't have the ability to augment it in any way. Once there, you have 15 minutes to complete the transaction by hitting the 'SAVE CARD' button.
If the campaign doesn't fund, your pre-order will be canceled, and the pending charge will disappear. You'll get an email confirmation with a summary of rewards and charges both after the initial pledge and after the actual charging of the card (try looking in your spam folder if you don't happen to see it in your inbox).
Please e-mail us at hello@wearezoop.com and we'll get right back to you!
You could e-mail us at hello@wearezoop.com with that info during the campaign if you'd like to get it out of the way. Otherwise, we'll be reaching out to all supporters of rewards that require feedback shortly after the campaign is over.
Our campaigns are for a worldwide audience unless stated otherwise in the campaign. All international orders are sold with the terms DAP (Delivered At Place). You are responsible for any duties and taxes required for the shipment's entry into your country. Our carriers may require you to pay taxes and fees related to importation and customs brokerage of your shipment -- but if your item is really low in value, it may fall under the customs de minimis of most countries. For more information, please contact USPS
Since we have an a la carte rewards system, shipping rates will vary from supporter to supporter. We use a weight-based calculation system in your checkout cart, though, so, after you enter your country, you'll be able to see it calculated in real time with each item you add.
If you want to make changes, you should first cancel your original order and then start over with a new one. If you don't do that and simply process an additional order, the way our system is currently set up you may end up being overcharged for shipping -- which we could remedy for you, but it just takes that extra step of catching it and crediting you back the extra shipping, so please try the prior way first.
No - this is it! We're essentially your in-campaign pledge manager. If you are interested in supporting these creators, this is the time to do it! And it's the exact reason we allow you to purchase as many rewards as you want during the campaign!
Rewards are the priority items that the creators have chosen for the campaign. Add-Ons are meant to be secondary items that are 'unlocked' after you buy something from the Reward level. There are no restrictions on buying Rewards, but you can only buy Add-Ons if you've bought a Reward. Zoop sets this up under the direction of the creators. Some may choose to only have Rewards, some may choose an even balance of Rewards and Add-Ons, and others may choose to only have one or two Rewards with the rest of the items being Add-Ons.
YES! We encourage you to get more than 1 item! That could be multiple copies of the same reward, or you can mix and match rewards! There is no limit, unless otherwise stated in the reward description.
