Another Kickstarter project: Narbonic

Shaenon Garrity's web comic Narbonic, a great collection of mad science, is finally being collected in a single volume! Now's your chance to support it, not that it really needs it: it's doubled its funding goal.

The comic, though complete, still runs daily at http://www.webcomicsnation.com/shaenongarrity/narbonic_plus/series.php
