Check out these awesome interlocking heroes and villains Adventure Time prints by Singapore artist and designer Clog Two.Unfortunately they are sold out but I’m sure he’d bring them back if asked nicely.

I’m loving the background designs for novel new Kickstarter project Past Away,they have an almost Blade Runner-esque feel to them.

The project is an online interactive comic created by artist and designer Christopher Middleton:

While I refer to Past Away as a comic, that’s mostly because that’s the closest thing to liken it to. The art style and the format are actually more like an animated film. There are no panels or word boxes in Past Away. All of the dialogue scrolls across the bottom of the screen similar to subtitles. I’m a HUGE fan of animation and I wanted Past Away to have the feeling of an animated film or television show.

The comic/game will be available exclusively online:

There is no print alternative for Past Away. From concept to creation it was created to be experienced as a motion comic. Also, since all of the mediums capable of displaying a motion comic also have the potential for interactivity, I wanted to use that interactivity for more than just turning the page or moving to the next shot. I thought it would be cool to integrate choices into the story, so that you can become an active participant in the narrative. I wanted to make a truly interactive story.

This is bold move by the creator and one I hope pays off.If you want to find out more about Past Away I have written a piece for my website,or you could just go straight to the Kickstarter project page and pledge,there are some great rewards on offer,including my favourite at $250:a character pin-up by Minjue Helen Chen.
