Ratti Entertainment, in partnership with Wise Acre Comics, is excited to announce the Kickstarter pre-launch campaign for Black Salt: The Last Heroes Left, a martial arts comic series that fuses espionage, action, and Afro-Asian storytelling. The campaign will fund the completion of Issues #5 and #6 and compile all six issues into a deluxe hardcover graphic novel.

The Black Salt franchise has already made waves across multiple mediums. What began as a comic series grew into an HBO-licensed 30-minute short film and later a video game demo that earned top industry honors, including the Spotlight Award at GDC and Best Action Game – Indie Playground at DreamHack Dallas. Now, Black Salt comes full circle as a hardcover graphic novel. "Black Salt has always been about representation, action, and storytelling with global appeal," said creator and producer Owen Ratliff. "Our goal with this Kickstarter is to give fans the complete story in a premium hardcover edition."

The campaign has already earned Kickstarter’s prestigious “Project We Love” badge and is building strong momentum with 513+ followers and counting. The goal is to reach 600+ followers before launch to ensure the campaign explodes out of the gate. Fans can view the teaser trailer and click “Notify Me on Launch” on the Kickstarter pre-launch page to show support.

This simple action helps increase visibility and signals demand for diverse, independent comics.
