Hey crowdfunding fans. Tune in tonight for another adventure of Crowdfunding Comics with your hosts Billy Tucci and Nile Scala with special guest Dan Parent!! The gang will be discussing Dan’s experience with Crowdfunding his comic Die Kitty Die, his amazing career in comics, crowdfunding processes, beard grooming, and so much more!!
Dan Parent is an American comic book artist and writer best known for his work for Archie Comics. A graduate of The Kubert School, Parent began working for Archie immediately after graduation. His writing of the Love Showdown series from 1994 received widespread attention. Parent has also illustrated Felix the Cat, Barbie, Disney Adventures, and a wide variety of other titles.
Parent is credited with giving Archie Comics a relevance with contemporary artwork and innovative story lines that would not have been seen in years past. One example is a modern, fashion magazine-style revamp of the long-running Betty & Veronica Spectacular. Another example was a 2010 storyline in which Parent wrote the first bi-racial coupling of Archie and Valerie from Josie and the Pussycats.
Archie then introduced their first openly gay character, Kevin Keller, in Veronica #202, which was written and drawn by Parent. Despite minor backlash from a few conservative groups, the character received national attention, positive reviews and became the first Archie comic book to sell out in its 69-year history, prompting the company to announce a four-part solo series featuring Kevin Keller in 2011.
