Today, Maria Cabardo-the director of a documentary about artist Jeffrey Catherine Jones, called Better Things-told me about her Kickstarter initiative for the unfinished project.

As described by Cabardo: “The movie is about Jeff’s life and involves other well known comic book artists who serve as the storytellers in the movie. The film covers the period of 60s comics in NYC, and the Studio years in the mid 70s as well (Go to macabfilms.com) … At present, we are editing the film and hope to finish a first rough cut by the 14th of next month.”

Jones has fascinated me since I met her back at a small comic convention in Atlanta in 2004. In the coming weeks, I intend to do an email interview with Cabardo, finding out the scope of the project and her progress on fundraising.
