A young woman’s mission of mercy turns deadly as she learns her role in the oppression of those she meant to aid.
This 44-pg. oversized comic will appeal to fans of social science fiction like Stephen King’s The Long Walk, Miller/Gibbons’ Martha Washington series, or Moore/Lloyd’s V for Vendetta.

America. The near future. Samantha Skylin is one of a group of high-achieving graduates privileged to be part of a special ceremony on Almsgiving Day: a day of charity. On this day they are part of a charity caravan for those on the other side of the great, big, beautiful walls that separate the holy United States of America from the Unbelievers. Once on the other side of the wall, things quickly go wrong.
Samantha is captured by those she has been protected from her entire life. Now her beliefs and values are in conflict as she sees how those who wish her society harm are forced to live in the shadow of the great border wall.
How will Samantha survive in the land of the Unbelievers?

May 10, 2022: By the time of my campaign start date (May 10) all of the artwork should be complete, except for the page that will be an add-on where a backer can have themselves drawn into the issue. I expect that all the digital additions to the art (panel borders, tone effects) and lettering will be done by the proposed campaign end date.
June 10 - July 22: An additional 6 weeks to receive feedback from the backer being drawn into the issue, and complete that page and it’s digital effects and lettering.
July 23- August 1: Finalizing digital file for printer and sending to printer.
August 15: Pick up print job from printer.
August 16-31: Prepare mailing list and mailers.
September 1:Ship physical rewards and email digital rewards.
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.
