Comic book veteran Jimmy Palmiotti is back on Kickstarter, and this time, he’s inviting fans to join him on a mind-bending adventure with his latest project, “Fantasima.” Palmiotti, a name synonymous with quality storytelling and creative innovation, promises a unique journey that explores the blurring lines between reality and fantasy.
Fantasima: A Search for Family and Redemption
“Fantasima” centers on Bernardo Burgos, a man haunted by a childhood tragedy – the disappearance of his family at sea. Years later, a flicker of hope emerges when Bernardo spots his long-lost sister in a photograph of a remote Amazonian tribe. Determined to find her, Bernardo embarks on a perilous journey into the rainforest, accompanied by a beautiful photographer and a trusted friend.
The path to reunion is fraught with danger. A vengeful witch’s curse, monstrous creatures, and a ruthless logging company threaten Bernardo and his companions. As he delves deeper into the rainforest, Bernardo uncovers a shocking truth: his own family company is at the forefront of the deforestation. Torn between saving his sister and protecting his family’s legacy, Bernardo finds himself at the center of a brutal conflict.
