Hey friends and family, possible DARK Agents or Order of the Talon Ninjas, we are in the last 48 hours of the KickStarter campaign! I am ecstatic to report that we achieved over $1K! We’ve had two super backers who are getting their own printed copies of Issue#5 with their own original character on the cover with Red Talon! Really excited to share those covers with you when they are complete.
For a small team and studio this Kickstarter has been a great success! We will now be able to fund the completion of issue 5, and printing of Issue #5 and the STAR CHARTS!
If you haven’t backed the campaign yet, there’s still time to jump in before it closes. Every additional pledge helps us bring new Red Talon Issues to life and unlock even better rewards for the community. Whether you want the new issue, the Star Charts, or one of the exclusive Kickstarter-only bundles, we’d love to have you join us!
Spread the word for the final 48 hours! Let’s see if we can get some late to the game backers, go Red!
The next chapter of the Red Talon saga is here — and this time, it’s a double release! We’re excited to officially launch Red Talon #5, along with our all‑new universe guidebook, the Red Talon Star Charts. This campaign brings fans deeper into the story than ever before, combining a high‑stakes new issue with a comprehensive look at the world behind it.
RED TALON 5 HAS ARRIVED-
The Red Talon Mini-Series Continues!
The war against DARK has taken a treacherous turn. In Issue #4, Red Talon made a devastating discovery: the Golden American Heroes—the very team he joined to save the world—is secretly controlled by his arch-nemesis, Burning Skull.
Issue #5 dives into the high-stakes mission to dismantle Burning Skull’s empire, beginning with his most formidable weapon: White Angel. A brainwashed Crossbreed under DARK’s control, White Angel possesses a terrifying power level comparable to titans like Superman, Omni-Man, or Homelander.
To stand a chance, Red Talon must place his faith in Gilded Eagle—the long-lost sensei of the Order of Talon and brother to Mayoki (Raven Wolf). Can Gilded Eagle, wielding the primal power of eagles and light, hope to defeat the unstoppable White Angel?
