HAPPINESS is a biannual comic anthology aimed at spreading new talent across the U.S. and overseas. It is meant to serve as a palette of new styles and ideas, with unique narratives that go beyond the surface of current illustrative trends.

The first issue (shown above) was successfully funded on Kickstarter in November, but now the second issue needs some help getting its feet off the ground!

Issue number two features 25 different artists from a multitude of cities, and will be 88 pages total.
