Fund This: The Princess Who Saved Her Friends

The children's book sequel from Greg Pak, Joanathan Coulton and Takeshi Miyazawa.



The Princess Who Saved Her Friends is the latest children's book written by comics writer Greg Pak and internet superstar musician Jonathan Coulton, and illustrated by artist Takeshi Miyazawa. The sequel to 2015's The Princess Who Saved Herself, the book is currently winding down a successful Kickstarter campaign.

Featuring the same creative team, the original book was a story of determination, bravery, and understanding, starring a scrappy kid who stuck up for herself but was always able to open the circle and find reconciliation with the monsters and witch she came into conflict with.

But what happens next, when our heroine discovers that the witch befriended might not be such a good friend after all? The Princess Who Saved Her Friends tackles the kind of tricky personal conflict that kids -- and adults -- grapple with every day in the real world.

Fund This: Code Monkey Save World

Hey, fellow geeks! Just want to make sure you knew about Code Monkey Save World, winding down the final hours of its Kickstarter campaign. The project is a graphic novel collaboration based on the songs of popular internet singer-songwriter Jonathan Coulton, written by our friend Greg Pak, and drawn by Takeshi Miyazawa. It's already successfully met its fundraising goal many times over, so this is your chance to get in on this.

Code Monkey Save World got started when Greg sent a tweet to his old college friend Jonathan Coulton about writing a supervillain team-up comic based characters from his music. They crafted the tale of Code Monkey, the put-upon coding monkey from the eponymous Coulton song, as he teams up with the lovelorn supervillain from Coulton's song "Skullcrusher Mountain." They have adventures.
