Review Fix: What are your long-term goals for your work?
Ellis: My long-term goals are to make my whole comic book universe and then make films and shows for my comic book universe because I’m a filmmaker as well and then just keep repeating the process and keep making books like I’m trying to be literally bigger than Marvel and DC no shade to them.
Review Fix: Why should someone support this Kickstarter?
Ellis: I think they should support this kickstarter because I think people really want something new something fresh like literally like we been being fed recyclables and like a lot of other comics are cool but like you know they still follow this core pattern of like you know how superheroes are made you know.
Review Fix: Why should someone support your work?
Ellis: I think they should support my work because we are the future like literally we are the future like when they look at prophecy comics, they should see that’s the third out of the big two even though we are Indie right now. I feel like we are going to change a lot. I want to be able to pay the creators for their creations and do right, I wanna do right by people that’s it that’s why they should support us.
Review Fix: Anything else you’d like to add?
Ellis: I will say is please give us a chance. if this Kickstarter don’t work out we are going to do another one but it’s going to be a more feasible goal so yeah
Review Fix: What’s next?
Ellis: What next? If we get this goal in time. Issue 1, issue 2 , issue three , issue four and then new stories. I have new stories but I can’t do this without the people pushing me up.
