WE DID IT!

Calling all party animals

A sincere & heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed and helped spread the word. Because of you, these comics full of blood, sweat & tears (but hopefully no Corona virus) will become physical realities. 

We'll be sending out surveys soon. We also use something called BackerKit that will allow you to add on additional items from our back catalogue and even some of the bonus material like mini-comics and original art offered during this campaign if there are unclaimed extras available. 

Thank you!

Getting close! Comics giveaway + Sneak peek at new pages!
about 4 years ago – Wed, Mar 11, 2020 at 07:17:59 AM

Well, we're nearly at our goal with just a few days left. It's all or nothing with Kickstarter, so if we don't reach $8K by the end, we get nothin'! I don't really have a backup plan for funding the printing (I would sell my body, but I'm pretty sure nobody wants this bloated 46 year-old meat bag), so let's just make it happen. 

What can you do? Oh, I'm so glad you asked. Well, we have a comics giveaway going on to drum up enthusiasm (you're welcome to participate) on Instagram, Twitter & Facebook. You could always repost those or any of our other Kickstarter related posts. You could tell a comic loving pal about the campaign. You could ask your pee-paw if he has any comic loving friends. Be creative!

Find this image on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, and follow instructions to enter the contest!

Here's a few new pages that the artists just sent us!

From November Garcia's "Malarkey #5"
From Thomas Lampion's "The Burning Hotels" (hey! I'm in this one, sorta!)

New reward tier!
about 4 years ago – Wed, Mar 11, 2020 at 07:17:41 AM

We've sort of stalled out at 75% funded, so Lance Ward was kind enough to put together a limited-edition (of 24) mini-comic to renew interest. Check out the new reward tier! 

We'd really appreciate any help you can give in spreading the word about this Kickstarter. Thank you!

New reward tier - all bonus minis
about 4 years ago – Wed, Mar 11, 2020 at 07:17:03 AM

We had a backer who couldn't decide between getting the bonus mini from November Garcia or the two from Mike Freiheit, so we've created a new reward tier that includes all three ("Bonus Mini-comics Bundle")!

I believe backers can switch reward tiers if they'd like, so I thought I'd let y'all know. 

Living Bearly / shout out to you!

Thanks to all of you, we're just shy of 25% funded already! 

I'm doing all I can to keep the momentum going, so thank you for either quietly ignoring my flood of social media posting or (better yet) engaging with these posts. Every like or (better yet) share makes a difference. 

I just want to point out that because me and Patrick Dean are both from Georgia, it's entirely possible that he lightly stalked me and based the "Living Bearly Club" portion of his graphic novel on me (see below photos). ** Please note that the comic will look MUCH better than this...I'm still cleaning the pages up and formatting them properly. **
