Speaking of Jill Thompson, friend of the Booth, she has her own Kickstarter currently running. Her original project, Scary Godmother, is making the leap from comics and television to the world of collectibles. Calling the collectible a “doll” is unfair. It has 15 points of articulation, making it more Action Figure than anything. No matter what you call it, the Scary Godmother action figure will be the first to unify the WWE and Divas championships.

But, if you can’t spring for the top reward, Jill Thompson also set cool prizes at other reward levels, like a CM Punk WWE Champion print for her wrestling fans. Scary Godmother may already be funded but joining now, much like Headlocked Comics, means you will  be able to get these prizes that are not available anywhere else. Plus, when someone has Daniel Bryan as their personal bodyguard and celebrates getting funded by YES! Galloping through the streets of Chicago, wouldn’t you want to give them your money?

There’s another Kickstarter with a connection to Jill Thompson: Cartozia Tales. It’s a comic saga that aims to tell a story that’s rarely done. Each issue of the 10 issue set consists of 9 short stories that map out portions of the fictional island of Cartozia. By the time you reach the 10th issue, you will be able to go back to the beginning and relive a fully realized island. While the premise is aimed at kids, it is an all ages series so that grown-up kids can enjoy it as well.

And, if both Cartozia Tales and Scary Godmother are funded, they will each contribute to each other’s projects, the same way Jill is contributing to Headlocked Comics: The Last Territory. The Kickstarter creators – at the least the ones we like – are a close knit group, much like the wrestlers we admire. Together, they are putting together not only great individual projects by also phenomenal collaborative efforts. If you’re worried that there won’t be enough wrestling in Cartozia Tales, don’t worry. So far, only 2 issues have been made. There’s plenty of unexplored island left and I’m sure there’s enough uncharted terrain for someone to stumble across Parts Unknown, home to that ancient form of grappling. Give it a shot.

Here are 3 fun projects by wrestling fans that, if you can, should be supported. They follow the old adage: when creative has nothing for you, make something for yourself.
