about 3 years ago – Sat, Apr 17, 2021 at 09:12:03 PM

70% of the way to goal!! Project We Love!! SMASHING IT!! But we seem to be frozen at $4,666 and we're not sure if we should be worried!! 

You may have noticed that one of our cover options on the rewards wasn't colored yet, but we got the colors in today, so you guys get to see it first:

This is the cover by our interior artist, Omar Zaldivar, colored by Eve Pinkker!

So, the cover options are as below:

We also have two VERY IMPORTANT projects to showcase, that we backed ourselves:

RENderings with REN, Volume 1 is a beautiful art book by Ren McKinzie, featuring over 100 pages of stunning art pieces, including fanart and pinup pieces from ALL genres!! He's even offering sketches and signed books! 

Find it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rentheartist/renderings-with-ren-vol1

THE JUMP is a kick-you-in-the-teeth paranoid thriller set in the world of astral projection. It’s INCEPTION meets THE BOURNE IDENTITY if it were dripping with macabre and directed by David Fincher. Find it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rylendgrant/the-jump-1-2-from-ringo-award-winner-rylend-grant

It’s brought you by the same twisted team that produced Action Lab: Danger Zone's much-lauded superhero noir BANJAX. It made over a dozen critics ten best lists in 2019 and was nominated for FOUR Mike Wieringo Comic Book Industry Awards including BEST SERIES (alongside BITTER ROOT and SOMETHING’S KILLING THE CHILDREN).

Writer Rylend Grant has worked for 15+ years in Hollywood, developing film and television projects - mostly big, poppy action movies - with folks like JJ Abrams, Ridley Scott, John Woo, Luc Beson, and Justin Lin!!

Past the Halfway Point! LET'S DO THIS!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Apr 14, 2021 at 09:15:08 PM

Keep it up, guys!! 

A few people have asked me about the metal prints - they're still ON the campaign, just available as add-ons instead of directly on a tier!! :)

Let's push through and hit goal ASAP so we can show you guys page progress! 

If you're looking for some images to share on your own social media and help get us to goal faster, these ones are great: 

Also, a very important update: Kat Calamia is in the LAST DAY of her Kickstarter campaign for THE DANCER: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/comicuno/the-dancer-1-a-psychological-martial-arts-thriller

Another fantastic female-run campaign, back it now!! 

And finally: Emily McGuinness is also running a project right now for THE ZOMBIE GAME: a 134-page graphic novel!  Do you love zombies, horror and all things bloody? Then THE ZOMBIE GAME is the book you have been waiting for: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1034423835/the-zombie-game-a-veteran-horror-comic

At the end of a long college school year, Oz, ex-Army, his service dog, Leg, and best friend, Jer decide to go to the mother of all blow-out parties in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.

Their anxieties are soon forgotten as the music thumps and water pours down. But it’s not ecstasy raining on the party-goers, something much more sinister falls down on them, trapping them, reshaping them into creatures hungry for flesh.

AMAZING start!! 100-backer milestone attained!
