Join us in Episode 341 of Storycomic Presents as we welcome back the extraordinary Amanda Kahl and the award-winning Michael Varhola, editor-in-chief of Skirmisher Publishing. In this inspiring session, we dive into their latest Kickstarter project aimed at aiding one of the most vulnerable populations affected by the ongoing war in Ukraine: children living amidst the threat of landmines and unexploded ordnance.
"Warning: Danger! A Children’s Guide to Mines & Unexploded Ordnance" is a bilingual activity book developed by a dedicated team of combat veterans, game developers, and artists, including Kahl and Varhola. With guidance from Ukraine SOS and the Gnosis Project, this crucial initiative seeks to educate and protect children through engaging activities, including coloring pages and a board game, all while being accessible in both Ukrainian and English.
Hear from Kahl and Varhola about the creation process, the importance of their mission, and how this project aims to make a tangible difference in war-impacted areas. This episode sheds light on the intersection of creativity and humanitarian effort, showcasing how art and storytelling can contribute to safety and awareness in times of crisis.
Support their life-saving mission by visiting the Kickstarter: Warning: Danger! Kickstarter and explore more about their works and passions at Skirmisher Publishing and Age of Night.
