Cthulhu for you! 🐙
over 2 years ago – Thu, Oct 05, 2023 at 04:21:32 PM

Hey y'all! Happy October!

Firstly, I want to officially declare Concrete Arcanum fulfilled! Everyone should have recieved their rewards long ago. But if you haven't, please don't hesitate to reach out and let me know!

Secondly, ‘Tis the season to be spooky and I’ve been working hard behind the scenes to bring you a special Halloween Treat of godly proportions! In just ten days from now, I will be collaborating with Creating Meraki Studios to launch this  limited line of goodies on Kickstarter!

Pree-senting:

Steampunk Cthulhu: Messenger bags and pouches!

Check out some of the sweet items you’ll be able to get decked out by this dapper eldritch devil!

The messenger bag is perfect for carrying and protecting your copy of the Necronomicon! Each one is handmade from Shoggoth hide, er… I mean… waterproof canvas! Two interior pockets for arcane artifacts and an adjustable strap made of 2 inch seatbelt webbing for durability and comfort. 14 inches wide, 9 inches tall and 3.5 inches deep. They may also contain a pocket dimension because they hold more than you’d expect!

The pouch is handmade, lined, and reinforced for durability. Perfect for keeping your spell components safe and dry! 8 inches wide, 5.5 inches tall, and 1.75 inches deep along the bottom edge (which allows this bag to stand on its own).

But that’s not all! We’ve got enamel pins, stickers, and art prints for you too!

Enamel pins! (1.5” diameter)

4" Vinyl Sticker!

AND classy art prints!

Just CLICK HERE and hit the “Notify Me“ button so you can be first in line for launch day!

Because you just know I‘ve got early bird comic bundle for everyone who backs right away. AND the first 50 returning backers will be getting one of these little guys included with their reward!

But here’s the best part:

Now normally I’m a “One-holiday-at-a-time”, “Save-your-Xmas-stuff-for-December” kind of guy. But I want to light up the Yule-time rituals of all my Cthulhu lovers out there.

So CLICK HERE and hit the “Notify Me On Launch” button. It does exactly what it says it does. We launch Friday, October 13th (the spookiest of all days) and the campaign runs until Midnight on Halloween!

Hope to see you there!

And remember to be spooky!

But not too spooky 🎃💀👻

The Canon of Vangel, Issue 2!
almost 3 years ago – Wed, Apr 26, 2023 at 12:00:45 PM

I'm very excited to announce that this coming Tuesday, May 2nd, Issue 2 of my post-apocalyptic urban fantasy series The Canon of Vangel goes live on Kickstarter!

CLICK HERE! Go there! Hit the “Notify Me on Launch” button! 

Because you will most definitely want to be notified when we launch. As is my custom, I have all manner of bonuses for early and returning backers.

Case in point, the first 50 backers of any tier will receive this free bonus bundle of digital comics with their reward!

Because getting my comics as a reward isn’t enough. You deserve 5 times the comics!

And, as a special thanks to the folks who got me this far, all returning backers will receive this signed mini print of the cover art with any physical reward tier!

A strong launch means a strong campaign in the Kickstarter world,  if you liked the work I did in MindAstray please CLICK HERE to follow the campaign and help me get the campaign off to a rip-roaring start!

And if you can’t back financially right now, that’s cool. I get it. Sharing the link on social media or with your friends is a great and easy way to help out too.

Thanks so much for backing Mind Astray 2021! I’m thrilled to be launching The Canon of Vangel, Issue 2 on Kickstarter!

Hope to see you there!

Till then, be good!

But not too good 😉

24 HOURS LEFT for Mind Astray 2022!!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Mar 01, 2023 at 08:50:57 AM

There are just 24 HOURS LEFT to lock in your copy of Mind Astray 2022! We got 10 more backers since yesterday and now we're just 22 away from getting over that 100 backer threshold!

Can we make it! Can we hit that illustrious stretch goal?

CLICK HERE to go to the Kickstarter page and be part of the victory!

Even if we don't make it over 100 backers, everyone will be getting this sick bonus bundle of digital comics with their reward:

And everyone will be getting a personalized shout out from me in the big post-campaign thank you video.

We are so close to getting over 100 backers, but there are still loads of awesome bonus freebies even if we don't. So it's win-win-win all around.

I like those odds.

More soon!

Till then, be good!

But not too good 😉

And don't forget, everyone who backs for a physical reward within the first 24 hours will get an exclusive signed mini print of the cover art with their reward!

I’ve got a fun bonus in store for everyone if we can get over 100 backers this year!

COMING SOON: Mind Astray 2022!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Jan 25, 2023 at 09:26:41 AM

That’s right, kids!

In just ten days, that’s a week from Friday, on February 3 ( 2-3-2023 ), I will be launching the Kickstarter for Mind Astray 2022!

CLICK HERE and hit the button to get notified as soon as it launches!

Bigger and better than before! All my favorite, sketches, drawings, doodles, cartoons, commissions, and miscellaneous artistic brain farts from 2022! And it won’t be complete without your edition to it! Just like last year, if you get a commission as a part of this campaign, it will be in your copy! That’s right, no two books will be the same! Your copy will be unique to you!

And you are most definitely going to want to get notified when it launches, because everyone who backs at a physical tier before the end of the first 24 hours is going to get this exclusive signed mini print of the cover art with their reward!

And on top ofthat, every backer will be getting a handpicked bonus bundle of digital comics, created by my awesome indie artist friends!

Last year was the first time I ever did a sketchbook campaign, and almost 100 backers made it a smashing success! I’ve got a fun bonus in store for everyone if we can get over 100 backers this year!

Let’s smash that record!

Will we make it? I don’t know! But I’m going to need your help to do it!

Here’s that link one more time:

See you next Friday!

Till then, be good!

But not too good 😉
