Hello!
How to Build an Army has arrived! We got the boxes from the printer and the book looks amazing, as always, thanks to Comic Impressions.
We had a little trouble getting the design ready for the Hardcover but we'll have that soon too. In the meantime we will start getting packages ready for those that did not order a hardcover.
In other exciting comic news, Broken Trident #2 just went live!
Another super cool thing about the Broken Trident campaign is that we got writer/artists Nathan Lueth (Impure Blood, Concrete Arcanum, The Canon of Vangel) to do a guest cover and a cross-over print with our artist.
The only way to get your hands on that print is to back Broken Trident #1-2 on Kickstarter as well as The Canon of Vangel #1-2. Click the above image to head over to the Broken Trident page to learn more!
Speaking of Nathan, as I stated, he is the creator of the Canon of Vangel, which is live right now for another 15 days, check it out!
Ten years in the future, after a magical reawakening has thrown the modern world into chaos, a wandering Paladin is on a mission to help magical and mundane folks alike navigate the strange new world, face her demons, and pump the brakes on the apocalypse in progress.
If you like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, and The Dresden Files, then you are going to love The Canon of Vangel!
Thank you so much for your support! We could not make this dream come true without you!

Before I sign off here, I just wanted to tell you about this amazing comic project by Bret Juliano, called Detective Potatoes: Case of the Coffee Apocalypse. I just backed this comic. I love mafia stories and I know my kids are going to love to read this one too. Check it out below:

Hello!
Sorry for the delay in posting another update, it has been a busy month! Here is a quick update:
The Kickstarter funds have been received. Thank you so much for your support! We also had to make a few last minute edits to How to Build an Army. The edits are complete and the book is ready to be sent to the printer. The digital copies of the book will be sent out by the end of the week, and the book will also be sent to the printer by then.
I will send another update when the digital copies go out and I will keep you all posted on the timeline from the printer.
