Oooh I like this idea. In issue 1 I made a risograph print and included it in every issue. Something like that maybe?

What do you mean sorry, like a bonus issue developed on the side?

Gosh that’s a good one isn’t it? Probably the best we’ve made.

It’s been a long time since I wrote a piece for APWOT, not since issue 1!

Every issue I do write the foreword and final closing pieces though!

We have those! We’ve had unique ones for previous campaigns, but I deliberately didn’t do one this time as I thought there were already so many items available on the campaign as we have so many SKU’s now. 😅

We have a lot of campaign left to go and I’d like to find a cool way of celebrating the successful campaign.

At the same time I’ve never done stretch goals because I fear project bloat, but I’m open to any cool suggestions! Would appreciate any ideas at all.

It wouldn’t be an APWOT Kickstarter without a fresh enamel badge for backers to proudly wear. In keeping with the space theme of this issue’s cover game, we’re introducing the Space Cadet badge, featuring the iconic APWOT mascot venturing into the final frontier! 👨‍🚀🌌

Mascot by Keita Takahashi!

Nah mags are exempt, for now at least! It’s more complicated and expensive getting stock into the US nowadays due to the changes, but US customers shouldn’t be charged a tariff at least. Unless something changes!

This is a great option for those of you who recently backed the trilogy reprint kickstarter, or if you've been with us all the way and just want a secure home for this next chapter of the APWOT story!

I added more stock of this bundle to the kickstarter but there are now less than 100 left! 👀

This campaign also includes the Astral slipcase, for issues 4-6 of APWOT! It features a fantastical creature accompanying each letter of the APWOT initialism. Crafted from 3mm-thick card with foil blocking and spot varnish, and available as an add on and a bundle for this campaign!
