The availability of the pre-order link is very clear on the homepage. It seems easy to back the campaign on Kickstarter directly from the main page. The information about the war is right there too which helps you understand what you are supporting. I like that the creators are upfront about their backgrounds and the historical accuracy they strive for. It makes the decision to support the project feel very secure and well-informed.

About Benevolent Assimilation

Benevolent Assimilation is a historical graphic novel set in Samar, Philippines in 1901, during the Philippine-American War. The story follows Maria, a Waray tattooist living in self-imposed exile after a tattoo she performed led to a man's death, and Mateo, an eleven-year-old boy fleeing the destruction of his village by the American military. The narrative is framed around President William McKinley's policy of "benevolent assimilation" and references the historical figure General Jacob H. Smith. The creators are using Kickstarter to accept pre-orders for the publication of the graphic novel. The website also provides a way to contact the creators and lists references related to the historical period.
