The Late Pledge opportunity for the Gerry Anderson’s Project SWORD graphic novel from Time Bomb Comics closes on 14th June 2026.
The British independent publisher’s crowdfunding campaign to revive the under appreciated 1960s concept first seen in the pages of the British weekly comic TV21 has been a huge success for the publisher, raising £9891 to bring it to life.
If you didn’t back the live campaign for the new adventure from writer Lizbeth Myles and artist James Gray, this will be your last opportunity to get one of the oversized limited edition hardback versions of the book that are being produced just for campaign backers.
Gerry Anderson’s Project SWORD won’t be reprinted in this over-sized format, and will have a single print run of 100 copies – of which 90 have already been claimed by existing campaign backers.
All backers will also receive a free limited edition print of the cover artwork by artist James Gray.
You can Late Pledge your copy here on Kickstarter
