Why ZURDO? what does it mean? the word itself means “lefty” in Spanish. It’s a trait I share with my mother, it’s no revelation that left handed people are in the minority of the population, growing up I would hear these stories from my mother and uncles about how left handed people were mistreated in their childhood, forced to use the right hand and punished if they did otherwise, as if there is something wrong or evil with them for using their left side, something…”sinister” which is a synonym for “left” in Spanish, “siniestro”. I had the privilege to not grow up in that generation, as a kid I was encouraged to use my left and have creative freedom to explore whatever I imagined, so ZURDO is that, the embracement of that left side.
In this book I plan to revisit some of my favorite artworks from my 15 year career as an artist, featuring some familiar work from covers and character designs but also showing some of the personal art that has never been seen before. This book features some of the behind the scenes process work, exploring the different medias from my digital process to my work in traditional art like markers and watercolors. In the end it will be a retrospect on my evolution as an artist. I’ve always felt looking back at older work can sometimes be a wise teacher.

Jorge Molina has been a creative force in the comic book and video game industry for the past 15 years. After being an exclusive artist at Marvel for 8 years, he has made numerous contributions as an artist, designer and creator on titles such as Star Wars, Spiderman, Thor, Avengers and the X-Men.
Recently, Jorge made his debut on DC comics as Batman’s main artist, working not only on interior and cover art, but also designing new characters and suits for his iconic run on the Dark Knight.
His passion for video games and design has also led him to pursuit a career in video games. Jorge has worked as a concept designer for Activision, Crystal Dynamics and Zynga Eugene, and recently at The Initiative, one of Microsoft’s biggest game developer studios, where his talents were essential in establishing the look on the new Perfect Dark video game (in development) as a lead character & concept artist.
Printing and shipping should take around three months from that point, so delivery of rewards is expected to be done around November 2023.
Zoop will be here to communicate with backers should any delays occur, if there’s confusion about delivery, or if any other concerns pop up.
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.
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
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.
You can either access the transaction through your account and click the cancel button, or contact us at hello@wearezoop.com and we'll cancel it for you and send back a confirmation email.
Cancellations of rewards or add-ons of $500 or more must be made before there are 72 hours left in the campaign. The reason for this is it can have a negative effect on the tally of the campaign. If it is a limited reward or add-on, there may not be sufficient time for someone else to purchase it, leaving the campaign possibly not funded. We ask for your courtesy of the people running the campaign when making these decisions.
Please use the notes section in the last checkout step or 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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
