Writer Chuck Dixon, artist Timothy Lim, colorist Brett Smith, and consultant Mark Pellegrini have been teasing us over the past month about their upcoming project, Trump’s Space Force. We’ve gotten to see Lim’s design of Space Force One as well as the space suits President Donald Trump will wear as he fights against an incoming alien invasion and their allies the Establishment. Now, the team has launched the IndieGoGo for the project with a goal of $15,000.

The project is described as a “high octane, kinetic thrill ride blending over-the-top science fiction adventure with political satire and humor.” They also describe what they want to deliver to fans and customers with this project:
“With the announcement of the real-life Space Force becoming a reality and the current state of the comics industry catering to a one-sided ideology, the team behind Trump’s Space Force wants to deliver a quality book that tells a great story, captures the current zeitgeist, and entertains with dynamic art.”
Lim previously told us Trump’s Space Force “will have the same tone as action-packed science fiction movies such as “INDEPENDENCE DAY” and “STARSHIP TROOPERS.” There is a touch of parody and satire in it, but Chuck Dixon insisted that he tell, first and foremost, a solid story that people would want to read.”
He also touched on the plot of the story:
“The main plot focuses on why President Trump decides to establish a Space Force: he learns of a deep, dark conspiracy between extraterrestrial forces and the Establishment, setting up for an invasion. It’s not gonna happen on his watch!”
The book will be 40 pages in length.
Currently 40, and we are adding more with stretch goals!

Cameos
Like Lim, Pellegrini, and Smith’s My Hero Magademia, this book will also feature a number of cameos from not only other independent creators’ characters, but also some renditions of real life pundits and analysts.
Some of those cameos include Regina Ragowski from the Rags Zombie comic.
Killing zombies is one thing. Fighting aliens is another.

They will also be joined by prolific comic creator Scott Adams.
Thanks @ScottAdamsSays : the cadets of the Space Force will really appreciate your tutelage in Advanced Persuasion! Might not work on the Bad Hombres that you’ll be dealing with, but it’s worth a shot!?
