Thanks again, and please keep spreading the word and helping me continue to bring more people to the campaign.

Cover Remarque Sketches
about 3 years ago – Fri, Apr 16, 2021 at 02:32:07 PM

Back when conventions were a thing, I had just started to offer cover remarques on issue 1 of Savage Sasquanaut.  For some reason it never occurred to me to offer them as part of the Savage Sasquanaut campaign.

UNTIL NOW!

New REWARD TIERS and ADD-ONS 

Pledge for your copy of issue 5 with a remarque sketch of Savage Sasquanaut, drawn by creator Wes Hartman. 

or

select the UPGRADE COVER REMARQUE add-on to customize your current pledge or if you are buying multiple issues, choose which cover you would like the sketch drawn on. 

Boston Metaphysical Society: The Book of Demons

When Erin, Caitlin’s mother, discovers her daughter can control a demon, she is outraged. In her mind, only a Great House has the right to such power, but who will listen to a poor Irish woman? House Lowell will. For Alice Lowell has inherited an old Puritan journal which describes how to find and enslave a demon, but she needs a psychic to do it. Kidnapping Caitlin is the first step in a plan to rid her husband’s House of debt. But with a demon to do their bidding, her ambitions will be limitless.

This project looks pretty rad and is CRUSHING it currently and still has 2 weeks to go on their campaign!

Check out this art, it's really quite wonderful.

Tavern of Dreams - A Luminous Ages Tale

Here's another campaign that's kicking butt on Kickstarter.  It's exciting seeing all these new properties coming out and being so thoroughly supported and embraced.  Good job, backers.

Tavern of Dreams is a beautifully illustrated hardcover novel that is often described as "Night at the Museum" meets "Lord of the Rings". This novel takes you on a journey as you delve deep into the mysteries that haunt the quaint and friendly Grumpy Lion Tavern.

Tavern of Dreams also includes a section at the end called Short Tales of the Tavern featuring short stories based in the Grumpy Lion Tavern by other creators including award winning author Russell Nohelty.

Thanks again for your continued support and help to spread the love of SAVAGE SASQUANAUT! Now go get those remarque upgrades on your covers!

One week in, NEW REWARD
about 3 years ago – Tue, Apr 13, 2021 at 08:09:40 PM

Good morning!  We are through the first week of the SAVAGE SASQUANAUT campaign and I am happy to say that this campaign has surpassed all previous campaigns with the number of backers that have pledged to date.  Thank you for backing early!

Here's a very short heads up notice about a new reward tier that will go live at 10am central.  I am once again offering the Craig Babiar original art for Crimson Hombre.  It's an amazing pencil and ink drawing, and it will be available for only 1 week on the campaign.  This is the last chance to own this art, if the reward is not pledged for it will stay in my personal collection.

We're almost to our goal, less than $1,000 to go, please continue to spread the word about this campaign.  If you haven't shared with your social media accounts yet, please do so.  

Every single share, like and comment makes the campaign visible to more people.  If you haven't followed the Savage Sasquanaut social media page, I'd recommend doing that just to check out all the amazing celebrity endorsements that Sasquanaut has each day. 

 Here's the link to use https://bit.ly/3dR8G7H  

Thank you for your continued support, if you have any questions or comments please let me know.  In the meantime, here's some more killer looking projects.

THE JUMP 1-2

THE JUMP is kick-you-in-the tenth paranoid thriller set in the world of astral projection. It’s INCEPTION meets THE BOURNE IDENTITY if it were dripping with macabre and directed by David Fincher.

It’s brought you by the same twisted team that produced Action Lab: Danger Zone's much-lauded superhero noir BANJAX. It made over a dozen critics ten best lists in 2019 and was nominated for FOUR Mike Wieringo Comic Book Industry Awards including BEST SERIES (alongside BITTER ROOT and SOMETHING’S KILLING THE CHILDREN).

Writer Rylend Grant Rylend has worked for 15+ years in Hollywood, developing film and television projects - mostly big, poppy action movies - with folks like JJ Abrams, Ridley Scott, John Woo, Luc Beson, and Justin Lin.

KILLEROO

If you loved the movie PREDATOR, you'll love this Aussie comic book that pits a squad of US Marines against the Killeroo, in a fierce battle in Kakadu to protect an illegal Uranium Mine.  KILLEROO is a long-running Australian comic book series, and SEMPER FIDELIS is written by Matthew Soall and drawn by Ignacio Di Meglio - and It might just be the best of the series so far!

This book looks mental, can't wait!

Thanks everyone for your support!

Almost 75% funded
about 3 years ago – Fri, Apr 09, 2021 at 07:04:49 PM

You ROCK!

In just a few days we've nearly reached 75% of our goal which is faster than all my previous Sasquanaut campaigns.  This is very exciting.

But we're not there yet and with your help to spread the word about Savage Sasquanaut we can hit the goal by Monday.  That would be amazing!!!

https://bit.ly/3dR8G7H

Copy this link above, use that to post on your social media, send an email to your friends and family, your podcast/youtube/twitch/tiktok/idontknowwhatelse and get it out there to anyone and everyone please.

TUESDAY APRIL 13th, I will be LIVE on the Comixlaunch Podcast at 3:30pm talking with Tyler James.  You will likely be able to watch us live on Facebook too.  I'll confirm if that is Central or Eastern time zone and I'll let you know next update.  But mark your calendars if you can and come hang out and join the chat on the Comixlaunch podcast.

The Dancer

Check out this cover, I love it.

The Dancer is a psychological martial arts thriller that you should check out, it only has a couple days left.

MONSTER MATADOR

Last campaign Stephen and I were running at the same time too, and Stephen even generously donated the first issue of MM into the Fundle Bundle of digital comics that came with the last campaign.  He's back running a campaign for issues 1-3, check it out!

Keep spreading the word about SAVAGE SASQUANAUT and any of your other favorite creators projects and work, it helps more than you possibly realize.  

Have a great weekend!

HUGE Day 1!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Apr 07, 2021 at 04:10:05 PM

WOW!  Thank you so much for coming out and supporting Savage Sasquanaut on Day 1.

This was the best campaign launch I've had so far and that is all thanks to you!

Here's something NEW that I just made available in the "Add Ons" section.  Yesterday, during all the excitement of the launch I finished taking count of the final inventory of all Savage Sasquanaut issues and covers that are available and found the last few copies of this gem.

If you're new to the campaign, for the first issue I tried to run a second campaign on Indiegogo to my absolute failure.  And I had offered up this exclusive cover there, and included it with all Kickstarter orders of a certain level and above.  I made only 50 of this cover and thought I had run out save for my own copies, and now that I found these last few I want to offer them to you.  

The final 10 copies of the INDIEGOGO EXCLUSIVE cover of issue 1 are available in the Add Ons as of this moment.

And I want to clarify the SIGNATURE UPGRADE Add On.  If you choose to get the $1 signature upgrade I will sign any and all copies of the issues you order, not just one.  So if you order ONE issue I will sign it, but if you get 15 issues I will sign all of them for the $1. You don't need to do multiple signature add ons to get me to sign all the books.  

Is that clearer?

Please please please continue to spread the word about the Sasquanaut campaign on social media and to your friends.

Also, if you see one of my social media posts, give it a LIKE, but more importantly post a comment on it.  Any comment will do.  The more interaction and engagement my posts get the algorithms that run our lives will let more people see my posts if you COMMENT.  Say "cool" or "I got mine" or anything like that.

Lastly I want to share with you some of my friends projects as well.

The Veil Walker

Stephan Velez presents the first issue in his new series that features some dynamite art with Sajad Shah, Adelso Corona, and Leonardo Paciarotti.

Filled with 24 pages  of Action-thriller and mystery, with a unique blend of horror, The Veil Walker #1 is the introduction to a world ruled from the shadows by an ancient institution of witches and warlocks called The Order Of The Veil Guard. Readers will follow the exploits of the Veil Guards most decorated Inquisitor, Alexander Salvador nicknamed The Veil Walker.

Little fun fact, a few years ago I was working with Stephan and Sajad to help bring this project to life. But a serious case of burnout and scheduling issues led to Leonardo coming in and kicking butt all over the place with colors.  Glad to see this coming together so well, and Stephan has been a great supporter of me even after I kinda failed him here.  Check it out!

The Ivory King

These are the final few hours for my friend JT Krul's hardcover novel that I've shared with you in my newsletter, social media, and previous updates.  I'm excited for this one, it sounds dope and the art is killer.  Don't sleep on this, get on it and pledge before you miss out.

Thank you, my friends, have a great week and keep spreading the Sasquanaut love.
