Yesterday we hit $50,000 on Kickstarter! You guys are AMAZING! This means a few things. First, everyone will now get a free bookmark included with their book! It will probably look something like this:
But that’s not all, we have now unlocked the discounted shipping. Well, it’s still going to cost me the same amount to ship the books but I will not charge as much for international shipping anymore. Please check out the new shipping chart here and at the bottom of the home page for more details. Many of you have told me that you don’t plan to change your shipping and I REALLY appreciate that! Serious. Thank you again.
Hopefully enough of you don’t lower your shipping to make the campaign drop down below 50k for very long because that would just be confusing. Ha!
(Also, just a note to remind you that it is your responsibility to include the appropriate international shipping to your pledge because this will not automatically happen on Kickstarter. If you don’t include it before the campaign closes then I will have to contact you to request it through paypal. So… please double check before the campaign closes. Thanks!)
We are well on our way to the 4 mini goals now so please keep sharing this on Facebook, Twitter and Goggle+! Also if anyone decides to go out of their way to promote this campaign then I will make it worth your time. Just let me know what you have done and I’ll shower you with additional goodies! :)
And you can’t have new goals hit without having…
New Pledge Options!
It’s a real struggle trying to figure out what to include in a new pledge tier because I know that everyone can’t possibly get exactly what they want unless I have a million options. If there is some specific combination that you would like then just message me and we can work it out.
The big deal today is a new t-shirt. I have wanted to print this for a long time and there is no better time than now I guess. Here are the reward options. If you have a limited reward and want to add a t-shirt then just increase your pledge by $18 ($23 for XXL and up) Then you’ll need to tell me what the extra money is for when I send you a survey after the campaign closes.
__________________________
On another note, since there was so much demand for the $120 rewards I decided to add a few more 1st printings. I was planning on keeping several boxes of this first printing for a rainy day but the demand is there so… I’ll offer a few more.
And in case you are frustrated that you picked a early reward and wish you had waited, don’t worry, all you need to do is manage your campaign. You can switch rewards at any time while the campaign is active. Thanks again please take a second to share this with your friends!

Congratulations on hitting your goal with Kickstarter…and $50,000 – that’s an impressive amount.
Can’t be arsed reducing my pledge by $10 for shipping :D
Seriously, Those book’s true worth are at least $35 and $45. I dunno who WOULDN’T consider that reasonable for a quality product like the one you’ve organised. $45 and $55 is probably closer to the mark.
At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if you manage just over $80k. There will likely be another boost of donations come Monday with the comic update… Better start thinking about that $70k reward ;)
Yeah great to see this taking off, Jason – well deserved!
