We did it!!!

And by we, I mean the creative team and all of the amazing backers that helped bring this project to life.  Thank you so much for your support!  The book will be sent to the printer within the next two weeks.  Once it is at the printer I will keep you posted with an ETA.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  I would also love to know if you have any suggestions for our next campaign.

Speaking of our next campaign... Broken Trident #2 will be launching this spring.  For our final milestone reward, I would like to reveal to you the main cover, the first variant cover, and the second variant cover (which is a work in progress, and based off of New Mutants 87) for Broken Trident #2!

Once again, thank you so much for supporting us!

Have a great night.  You will be hearing from me again very soon!

Worthy Chaos Redemption is a brand-new Horror supernatural comic series created and written by C.A Grant, along with J.C. Litteral.  If you like Supernatural, Buffy the vampire slayer, Silent Hill or Resident Evil, this is for you.  The series follows Seraphina, a paranormal hunter, and Draven, a deadly assassin as they try and stay alive through horror filled nightmares, starting in a town merging with Hell, during an Angel and Demon war. They not only need to keep each other alive; they need to try and figure out why they are an intricate part of the war, and why both sides are after them.

In the dense forest surrounding Camp Comfort, California, the numbers of missing individuals always seems to spike during the fire season, even if there’s been 𝒏𝒐 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒔 𝒏𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒃𝒚.

People who hike the trails report beautiful views, decent fishing, and the 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒍 of gasoline in places. Those that choose to camp late into the season usually don’t stay more than a night or two, with strange noises and a watched-feeling driving them off.

Hello again to my faithful crew!

How to Build an Army is at 61% funded and we still have 5 days to go!  I am very excited to get this project printed and into your hands, and since the book is 100% complete we'll be able to do just that not long after we fund!

I am so excited to get the other rewards out as well, especially the hardcover and the mini figure!

Also, just a reminder that we've unlocked three milestone bonuses so far and we will unlock the next one at 75% funded!

Thank you all so much for your support, it means the world to me and the rest of my team!

Have a great day!

It would mean a lot to me if you checked out these other great projects live on Kickstarter right now:

My first recommendation, Worthy Chaos Redemption is a brand-new Horror supernatural comic series created and written by C.A Grant, along with J.C. Litteral.  If you like Supernatural, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Silent Hill or Resident Evil, this is for you.  The series follows Seraphina, a paranormal hunter, and Draven, a deadly assassin as they try and stay alive through horror filled nightmares, starting in a town merging with Hell, during an Angel and Demon war. They not only need to keep each other alive; they need to try and figure out why they are an intricate part of the war, and why both sides are after them.  There are 5 Books In the Redemption Series. Book 1 is 7 issues.  This Kickstarter for issues/chapters #1-3.  Issue 1 is 28 pages, 2 and 3 are 32 pages, and all are thick 80# glossy colored pages.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/worthychaoscomics/worthy-chaos-redemption-horror-comic-issue-2

My next recommendation is Crossroads.  Brothers 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒕 and 𝑻𝒆𝒎𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 have been given a simple task: spread their estranged father’s ashes on a cross-country road trip following a route the family would take when they were children. Once close friends, the brothers haven’t seen each other in three years and neither are as they remembered: Everest has gone from a promising young police officer to a pill-popping drunk following the loss of his partner, while newlywed Temperance is balancing law school and an ever-growing panic disorder. As the brothers learn to navigate their relationship again, the weeks-long road trip takes an unexpected turn: their late father was an urban legend hunter, and their inheritance ( like it or not ) is to pick up where he left off.
