Planning a Kickstarter for your comic? You might want some data on which types of projects have been successful. Here are some high points, followed by an infographic from AppsBlogger:

* 44% of projects succeed, under half.

* Kickstarter makes it hard to find data on unfunded (unsuccessful) projects. They hide them from Google, for example.

* Successful projects tend to pass their target by a small margin, while failed projects fail big.

* If you have a bigger funding goal, you have less chance of success.

* Larger projects are more likely to deliver after a delay. Only 25% of projects deliver on time (based on studying tech projects).
