Soaring Penguin Press hasn't added a story.
Meanwhile… 12 is a 152-page comics anthology featuring work by Gary Spencer Millidge, Roger Langridge, Sarah Gordon, Ginny Skinner, Daniel da Silva Lopes, Evgenij Iosjpe, Caleb Ady, Joe Latham, Joni Hägg, Jacob Fleming, Efi Theodoropoulou.
This campaign is to part-fund production costs, and to pay each creator an additional sum on top of their page rate.
What is Meanwhile...
Meanwhile… is our anthology series, bringing together higher profile creators with less established ones who are looking to see their stories in print. Each issue is curated to ensure the highest quality of comics storytelling.
Meanwhile… combines ongoing series with stand-alone stories, so that every issue provides a satisfying read, while simultaneously encouraging the reader to pick up the next issue.
Meanwhile… has grown from 52 pages to its current size: 152 pages, so there’s room for longer, self-contained stories without squeezing out smaller stories.
