The “Join The Horde” Barbaric Crowd building campaign is a suspenseful sort of tug of war. Picture this, on one end of the rope, die-hard fans fighting tooth and nail for access to the enticing goodies that await them on the other side. So, what exists in this metaphorical pot of gold? A rich bounty of digital comics, exclusive behind-the-scenes artistry, and all sorts of goodies meticulously put together by the comic book masterminds, Michael Moreci, and Nathan Gooden. Ah, the sweet taste of victory, it’s simply Barbaric!For ordinary humans, when we think of the word ‘horde’, we conjure up imagery of ravenous zombies or a throng of customers during a Black Friday sale. However, this scenario effectively paints the Barbaric Horde fans as ravenous, but with a touch of class. They’re not mindless zombies, rather enlightened humans hunting for the next monumental revelation in the Barbaric: Born In Blood #1 comic issue. Valiantly, they search for clues about a new warped villain, locked doorways to Owen’s cryptic past and of course, access to their drool-inducing rewards from the Vault library.

Who said being first didn’t have its benefits? The Horde’s trailblazers will be showered with early-bird gifts and an assortment of exclusive merchandise, covers, and uniquely crafted products. High-appreciation for the finer things in life is an attribute of barbarians too, it appears. This horde’s elite will have access to an exclusive range of goodies, never before, never again. Talk about savoring the sweet sense of fleeting exclusivity.

Paving a new pathway in the comic cosmos is the Crowd building Campaign – a brainchild of Zoop’s CEO Jordan Plosky, equal parts visionary and audacious. Straying away from the traditional fundraising blueprint, this campaign is a clever attempt at marrying an army of existing fans with a fleet of potential new ones, all bundled together in a merry chase for a bounty of rewards.

In the wise words of Plosky, “It isn’t about funding; it’s about fandom.” This statement can translate to one unpretentious fact: the more the fans, the merrier the contents of this treasure chest. Simple enough to understand, right? Throw more fans into the mix, and voila! Watch as the campaign unlocks delectable rewards, one after another.

Barbaric: Born In Blood #1’s release isn’t riding on the wagon of the “Join The Horde” crowd building campaign’s success. The book is inked, printed, and eager to be read. The intention here is clear: present readers a chance to own and relish the comic regardless of their geographical boundaries, preference of reading, or budget.

On this unusual journey of Crowd building, Vault and Zoop have entered uncharted waters, bringing something unprecedented and vivifying to the comic world. They’ve set out to thank their superfans in the most gratifying manner. A mélange of rewards and extras has been devised to acknowledge their undying support – only accessible through this first-ever Crowd building Campaign. And they say, “The times are a-changing”…indeed, they are – one Barbaric Horde fan at a time.
