Back the “Aim For The Heart” Kickstarter Campaign!

What time is it? IT’S KICKSTARTER TIME!

You’ve heard “All For One!”; now get ready for “One For All!” Duck Prints Press is thrilled to bring a whole new meaning to the Musketeers’ famous slogan in one inclusive book with a little bit of something for everyone: Aim For The Heart: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Alexandre Dumas’s “The Three Musketeers.” For this collection, we recruited 20 authors and 16 artists who love Athos, Porthos, Aramis, d’Artagnan, Milady, Madame Bonacieux, and the whole gang from Dumas’s wonderful historical melodrama. These creators’ mission was simple: take this long-adored story and make it queer! The result is an amazing collection of works exploring the nuances of these characters, delving into issues of identity, gender, and sexuality—telling and retelling a story we all know and love. 

If you’ve ever looked at The Three Musketeers and thought, “huh, idk, that’s kinda gay…I wish it was more gay,” then you are NOT going to want to sleep on this anthology. We’ve been working on this amazing project since last fall, and we are over. the. moon. to finally be bringing it to y’all. Each story is up to 5,000 words, and each artwork is black-and-white/grayscale and full-page. There’s even a 12-page comic!

Follow our page on Kickstarter for teasers, reveals, and more, and make sure you join us on social media so you can learn about our other projects, too!

The Kickstarter to print these gorgeous A4 books and to make our awesome, campaign-exclusive merch (a bookmark, a magnet, an enamel key chain, and a die-cut sticker!) is running now through July 15th, 2023. There’s also a lot of add-ons, featuring once-it’s-sold-it’s-gone-forever books and merch from our past campaigns! Don’t miss out!

LEARN ALL ABOUT IT BY VISITING OUR KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN NOW!

Shout out to the "This Game Does Not Exist" gimmick page on Twitter Dot Com for letting me get big galaxy brain artist idea inspiration for media I want to make and will think about for atleast 20 minutes to a few days before throwing out the said concept into the W.I.P. stash of my mind until it randomly pops back up when something reminds me of it one day. Whoever moderates the account is a real one U3U.

My Pride is a Fist

by Valeria Voldensdatter

It is in the best interests of us all to always, always resist

We are out here holding hands and meanwhile the doomsday clock ticks

We ask for peace again and again but they won't listen till we use bricks

Twisted words to fit their heart full of hate and it makes me sick!

Running logic circles with themselves trying to complete the trick

While politicians give hate a home and regurgitate garbage rhetoric

Too busy lining their pockets and taking our benefits

Letting power be snatched up by rabid fundamentalists

Lead by their love of fascist boots to they want to lick

When all we want is a place to love each other and exist

But all our desire for equal treatment are constantly dismissed

And now my pride has become my shrunken fingers in a closed fist

Vilkas' updated reference sheet, now with his human form! I had the delight of designing this character years ago, always a joy to see them along their journey.

[id] Vilkas' reference sheet, featuring both his human form and werewolf form. Starting from the left is his human form, he has light skin and dark brown hair and a beard. He is wearing a wolfskin shawl over a red cloak with leather armour. Around his belt is more wolfskin and a wolf skull. He holds an ornate axe of silver and gold with wolf and moon detailing. Next is a bare-chested half-transformed form, still very humanoid, but with wolf paws and hairier body. His right eye is glowing green. Next is the front and back view of his werewolf form, he has an undead curse which spreads from an arrow that pierces his heart. His flesh is falling off in sloughs exposing muscle and bone below. The left side of his chest is fully exposed showing the ribs and organs below including his glowing green, arrow pierced heart. To the right are headshots of him in his human form and werewolf form, and a collection of his items including jewellery and axe.
