Just 5 days into the campaign, Strip #410 is already financed.
If I’m being honest, it’s still a little hard to wrap my brain around it. Writing and producing that comic has always felt like a very lonely place to be, and not one that I was ever sure was worth the time or money I had invested in it. It always felt like trashy writing to me, not something I was particularly proud of or something I thought people were really invested in.
Clearly, I need to readjust my thinking.
So as of just 10 minutes ago, we’ve achieved 100% of the goal to get one comic produced. That means #410 is going to happen. Does this mean the comic is back?
Well, it’s hard to tell right at this moment, but that might very well be the case. We’ll see how it all goes. Part of my job now is to get the script written & drawn by Wondollar. If the campaign goes crazy and brings in lots of money, we might be able to finance several comics out of it, and perhaps use the extra money to float this over to Patreon, where the support framework is more appropriate to this format (and the fees significantly lower). There are still several steps to making all this a reality, but a big one has been made and that’s very encouraging.
Thank you so much to everyone who’s supported this silly comic, I’m grateful in ways I can’t express.
