irisjaycomics: AND THEY SAID IT COULDN’T BE DONE. (I don’t know who “they” refers to. The universe at large, probably.) After a nail-biter of a campaign, a burst of overwhelming last-minute generosity has rocketed us past our goal of $6000! Thanks to everyone who supported, either by backing or by mentioning the campaign to your friends! We couldn’t have done it without you folks!! <3 <3 <3 BUT WE’RE NOT DONE YET. A lot can happen in three days! And why rest on our laurels when we can push this campaign even FURTHER?? Let’s set down some stretch goals to sweeten the pot: If we can make it to $6,500 by the end of the campaign, I’ll put the chosen name of every single person who supported on an acknowledgements page in the back. Yes, you can be immortalized in the book itself, regardless of what tier you backed at! If we can make it to $7,000 by the end of the campaign, I’ll add an Annotations section to the back of the book! This was something I was planning on doing but had to cut for time and space constraints. However, if we can get far enough to cover the cost of sticking extra pages back in the book, I can add in a whole bunch of nifty behind-the-scenes notes that flesh out the world of Crossed Wires! If we can make it to $7,500 by the end of the campaign, I’ll include a campaign-exclusive set of collectible postcards with EVERY PHYSICAL ORDER! Send them to your friends with weird messages written on them… or just frame them and hang them up on the walls of your home! Too completely cool!! If we get further than $7,500 before this campaign ends… I mean, I’m an optimist, but I’ll be really floored if that happens. If it does we’ll make up even MORE extravagant stretch goals! A-DID SOMEONE SAY…. HARDCOVER EDITION?? (Nobody did right now. I’d have to get another quote for that. BUT STILL, NEVER SAY NEVER.) IN OTHER NEWS! Since I’ve been posting a cool piece of guest art from the book per day, here’s one of Orbit in their natural habitat by I. Merch, one of my favorite cartoonists working right now! Check out more of their stuff at http://pilotside.us! ALSO HEY: the Crossed Wires Volume 1 Kickstarter was included in the latest installment of the Weekender over on Comics Alliance! Very cool! Check it out here: http://comicsalliance.com/weekender-11-04/ I MAY have something else cool on Comics Alliance coming up verrrrry soon– I’ll put up another update about that when it gets posted. Anyways, you know the drill! Preorder if you can, tell your friends if you can’t. I’ll be at the Vera Project later today to catch the tail end of the Short Run comics expo AND the PWR BTTM concert afterwards! Rock on, and if you’re a Seattleite reader I hope to see you there! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/irisjay/crossed-wires-volume-1/ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/irisjay/crossed-wires-volume-1/ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/irisjay/crossed-wires-volume-1/ -- source link
