Live Chat, Comic Gossip, & Milestone Bonuses… oh my!

Live Chat, Comic Gossip, & Milestone Bonuses… oh my!

A LOT GOING DOWN on KICKSTARTER!!

Milestone Bonuses!

The launch is currently tracking at 72% which is outstanding!  I am grateful to be here at the 1 week mark.  I’ve added some milestone bonuses to sweeten the deal for backers!

When we reach 75% backing:  a free digital copy of DUSK #1 by Spero Comics will be sent to all backers!

Dusk is a city built on the edge of light and dark on a planet that hangs motionless in space. Kaitlyn has just arrived to live with her sister, Christina and immediately discovers the criminal element lurking in the city’s shadows. Meanwhile, two detectives investigate a string of child disappearances that plague the city. 

When we reach 90% backing: a free digital copy of OXYMORON: The Loveliest Nightmare #1 will be sent to all backers!

An afflicted detective hunts a serial killer obsessed with contradiction, who is painting a bloody canvass of carnage with the entrails of politicians and power brokers in the corrupt city she calls home.  OXYMORON is a visceral thriller in the vein of Se7en and Hannibal that answers the question “What if The Joker came to a Gotham WITHOUT Batman?”

And Now… Time for Some GOSSIP!

In my last update, I featured DC Comics decision to ditch Diamond as their means of distribution to comic shops.  That, in turn, featured quite a reaction.  It pushed one comic shop owner to feature a DC SUCKS 50% off sale:

Which, in turn, earned Chuck Rozanski a lot of criticism from DC fans:

The Internet, ladies and gentlemen.  What else do we have it for?

Speaking of which…

I’m Going to Be LIVE on the Internets for the FIRST TIME!
Tomorrow, 6/10/2020 at 2:30 PM Central Time.  You can see me have a chat with Christie Shinn, creator of Demon Bitch Shitty Tarot.  You can find the link to the live chat on her website HoraTora Studios HERE!  By the way, check out her Kickstarter.  Maybe you’re not into Tarot, but even if you drop a few bucks… it’s totally worth it for her foul-mouthed updates!

You can see it on YouTube HERE!

Comic Book News and Kickstarter milestone bonuses

Comic Book News and Kickstarter milestone bonuses

As difficult as things are right now, it’s a little hard to celebrate a Kickstarter launch.  But sometimes fate and/or the timing works that way and all we can do is set your chin and move forward.  I’m moving forward on Kickstarter and it’s been going wonderfully.  I’m truly grateful for all those people that have backed my story.  In return, I have an amazing new cover and a look into Issue #3, which is coming up soon.  It’s Day 4 and I’m tracking at 57%.  That’s outstanding!  Many thanks to all those that have pledged and supported me.

And now… Comic Book News

Looks like DC Comics is ditching Diamond Distributors!  That’s kind of a big deal in the comic book world.  Right now, Diamond basically has a monopoly on comics distribution and they wield it with a heavy hand.  Been that way for around… 25 years!  The distribution model currently makes it pretty tough on local comic books shops.  They can’t return unsold stock and, from what I understand, don’t get any recourse with damaged stock either. We will have to wait and see if this is good news or bad news for your local comics store.

Keep an Eye Out for NEW TIER REWARDS and MILESTONE Bonuses
I plan on adding a Milestone Bonus for all backers at the 75% funding mark.  I’m currently looking at a full digital comic that will be absolutely FREE for everyone that’s in!  Also, expect to see a new reward tier available that will feature some original art.  These are single pieces that are “first come, first served.”  I have them set up in Pinterest and you can see them before they’re announced HERE.  They’re all amazing pieces featuring Aneksi, when she lived during her heyday in ancient Egypt.  

You can check out my Kickstarter here:

See you all next time!  Stay safe, stay healthy, stay SANE!

Take care,

Kurt
