9 more backers needed to make our target of 100!!!
I'm targeting getting our Alex Potts Kickstarter to 100 backers by the time it finishes in 3 days! We're currently on 77, can you help us make it? There are some great extras and add-ons, but most importantly, it's a work of absolute brilliance.

thinking out loud theres a weird lack of space for this type of stuff that's not fully mainstream & also not artsy in a d&q, fantagtaphics sort of way. despite those styles being quite popular online. not saying 'shortbox' is a style per se but theres like a sensibility
Speaking as someone who has committed the SBCF graphic novella sin I think a lot of it comes down to the lack of other places to release/pitch that length of work, esp if you’re in specific genres.

Damn, this is sad news. This only relates to their US business, but seems the French side is under administration + facing layoffs too. Hopefully, they can pay folks, regroup and keep going. Would be a huge shame to lose a publisher with so much history.

We’re super excited about bringing Cryomemory by Kyle FEWELL to conventions and it will debut at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social in November after our successful Kickstarter (you can only get the sticker pack and art print by backing!)
But we MAY also be working on some other new books too 👀

I quite like this! I worry "PRESS" may not reproduce well at smaller sizes, but no doubt this has all been tested. Would love a case study w/ rationale, the brand in use and where the new mascot w/ the flag comes from... but for now I dig it!

So sorry to hear about Matt. I’ve interacted with him a few times when we stocked some Star Fruit titles, was looking forward to talking more about new books. He was always so knowledgeable about manga and Star Fruit was clearly his passion.
My thoughts go out to Matt's friends and family.

I get so excited emailing artists about new books, and other publishers about stocking their titles. I think this whole Koguchi endeavour is just an excuse for me to surround myself with cool comics like some kind of ink-stained Scrooge McDuck diving into a book pool tbh
