Thank you so much to @rlblackink.bsky.social (art and main cover), @brittanymatter.bsky.social (edits), @egallagher.bsky.social, Damian Connelly & @tulalotay.bsky.social (variant covers), @timdanielcomics.bsky.social & @adamccahoon.bsky.social (logo design), and to everyone who backed the campaign!

The Julie Grimm campaign was fully funded on Kickstarter, but I'm keeping late pledges open through the end of the week. Physical backers can add this beautiful @tulalotay.bsky.social variant at a Kickstarter-exclusive discount. Hoping to ship in December!

If you spend more than $50 you can get 20% off your first order through the end of next week. Just use the discount code AUGUSTSALE.

If there are titles you think I should be carrying in the shop, just let me know. We're especially interested in self-published and small press titles.

I should add that this tier includes signed and hand-numbered physical copies as well as a thank you by name in the back of the book.

Knowing I won't get the first-time creator bump from close friends and family going forward, my goal is to reach more readers with less affinity who won't pay as much for a basic reward. Does a $12 reward for a physical + digital copy of a 32-page full color issue feel right to you?

Appreciate this. The primary reward tier for my first campaign was $15 for the 32-page physical + digital issue. We passed our funding goal, in no small part thanks to friends and family who wanted to support us.

Thinking through how to scale this & reach more readers, I know that has to come down.

Congrats on a hell of book.

Hell yeah!! See you there!

Easily my favorite cover artist of the year. Or any year.

Love this, just signed up!

This looks great. Just backed!
