Shipping has begun and our Winter Special is a go!

Over the last few days I have begun shipping orders out to backers! Hopefully some of you will start getting them in the next day or two! Patrick and I also got together one more time and signed all of the variants that needed to be signed. Thank you all for your patience and support.

Also, we launched the Winter Special Kickstarter this evening! Jump in now for Early Bird savings if you plan on snagging print copies of both issues.

See you again soon!

Comic signing and project announcement!

This is the most exciting update since we funded! The shipment of the standard cover showed up, and Patrick and I got together to sign most of them! 

I am going to start shipping orders that don't have variant covers this week. The variants should be delivered to me next week, and then we just need to sign a few of those and I can ship the rest.

Now that rewards are on the way to backers, we can announce the next Discordia Kickstarter:

A Discordia Winter Special!

In a week we will be launching a Winter Special Kickstarter featuring two #1's set in the Discordia world. The first is Apocrypha #1, a one-shot winter-themed horror story with art by Patrick and written by me. The second is The Rotted Lyre #1, a collection of three shorts from three different artists (and a framed narrative drawn by Patrick), each based on a poem from Alventi folklore.

If you backed at the Reanimated Fan level and want to be drawn into Apocrypha #1 instead of Discordia #1 let us know! You can get killed by monsters just in time for the holidays!

Follow along here:  Discordia Winter Special 

We look forward to expanding this world with you all!

Digital rewards sent! Print order placed!

Sorry to blast your email again so soon, but if check your inbox you should see a PDF from Backerkit! That's right, the digital version of Issue #0 has been released.

I also placed the order for the print version today. Once proofs arrive I'll share some pictures. Based on the current timeline, I'm hoping to start shipping by the end of the month. Then, once most of the orders are out the door, we will be launching the Kickstarter for our Discordia Winter Special, in which you will have the chance to pick up TWO new Discordia comics.

To spice this update up, here the finished cover by Henrik Rosenborg (I decided to keep this one as a virgin cover!):

Let us know what you thought of the Digital Issue #0 in the comments!
