An original art purchase on our Kickstarter unlocks the next stretch goal, and the money for the OA goes to our extremely talented artist Riccardo Cecchi. Somebody should make that happen 😎🤘.

Sidestepping comics again to remind you that if you’re not heading to the beach screaming the lyrics to The Starting Lines’s “Saddest Girl Story,” you are missing out on one of life’s great joys. I’m talking to you, SDCC. Don’t waste the opportunity. Extra points if you have The Ataris on deck.
