THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH Marks a Record Breaking Day One for BOOM! Studios
BOOM! Direct Reserve Campaign Now Live on Kickstarter
The immersive universe of THE EXPANSE has captured the imaginations of science fiction fans around the globe for over a decade – first in the Hugo and Dragon Award winning novel series and then in a critically acclaimed, Hugo and Saturn Award winning television series (streaming on Amazon Prime) – instantly entering the highest echelon of genre-defining sci-fi. Under the direct supervision and creative guidance of THE EXPANSE creator James S.A. Corey, superstar writer Andy Diggle (The Losers, Green Arrow: Year One) and The Expanse actor Wes Chatham (Amos Burton, The Expanse), THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH becomes the second new story set after the explosive final season of the show.
Pre-orders for this thrilling new comic book series began on Kickstarter yesterday as the latest BOOM! DIRECT RESERVE CAMPAIGN, ending its first day with a record-breaking total of $394,590, and becoming BOOM! Studios’ biggest Kickstarter launch day of all time, a record previously held by The Expanse: Dragon Tooth.
The Expanse: Dragon Tooth’s day one success led to it becoming one of the biggest BOOM! Direct Reserve campaign of all time in 2023. BOOM! Studios Deputy Publisher, Bryce Carlson has similar hopes for THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH.
“BOOM! has become synonymous with success and excellence in the Kickstarter space and has helped bring more attention to the creators, brands, and formats we love,” said Carlson. “With the success of 2023’s Dragon Tooth campaign, we had high hopes for this one. And then the incredibly enthusiastic and dedicated fans of The Expanse came and blew our expectations out of the water with their Day One support! We’re looking forward to seeing where the next 29 days take us and I can’t wait for everyone to see what Andy, Wes, Francesco, and the team have in store with this amazing new chapter in the franchise.”
BOOM! Studios plans to continue to pursue this successful avenue for campaigns, with several more unannounced BOOM! DIRECT RESERVE campaigns for 2025 yet to be revealed.
THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH BOOM! DIRECT RESERVE CAMPAIGN will continue for 29 more days, with special surprises and hidden stretch goals to be announced all month long. Fans new and old will not want to miss their opportunity to support this phenomenal campaign.
