Working hard on issue #2
7 months ago – Mon, Sep 18, 2023 at 06:58:19 AM

Hey everyone! We're still drawing the second issue - it's a much longer one than the first. 68 pages! And while we're working on it, we're working on funding it too. That's why we have the issue #2 Kickstarter going right now. Check it out if you haven't already!

Yup, we got the Project We Love badge again! Also, Rosi just finished a poster for the campaign.

It's a limited run, so don't miss out! We're also working on an exclusive extra for our returning backers, for all the support you've given us.

Issue #2 incoming
10 months ago – Sat, Jun 24, 2023 at 11:49:15 PM

Hey, everyone! Dylan here. We currently have all pledges flagged as fulfilled. If you don't have your rewards, get in touch and we'll make sure it gets sorted!

With everything we learned from the first one, we're going to do a lot better with the second one. It's not ready to launch yet, but you can get notified on launch:

The second chapter of Mara follows the titular character, in the aftermath of the war that claimed her tribe. She's thrown headlong into more danger with a group that she didn't ask for and doesn't trust her. Meanwhile, Mara must deal with the terrible cost of the power thrust upon her.

Every step along their journey sees them fighting for survival, and every revelation seems to provide more questions than answers.

Besides the comic itself, we have some cool rewards lined up. First is a bust, sculpted by Jaime G. Echanove, based on an iconic scene from the first issue. It will be available in STL format and as a physical model.

Next is a baby dragon enamel pin. Rosi delivered a great design for this one!

We're also planning to have cloth patches of the Stuffed Rock logo.

Finally, we're still working on the variant cover, and an A2 art print. Here's the link again if you want to get notified on launch. Also, feel free to jump into our discord server! We'll be showing the draft page as we get closer to launch to give you all a better opportunity to give feedback, but for now, any questions, comments, or suggestions can go in comments, on discord, or even in private messages. 

A note on the minis for NA backers
about 1 year ago – Thu, Apr 20, 2023 at 06:19:29 PM

Hi everyone! I'm seeing some US backers have already received their comics, and that's great. I'm glad to finally get these in your hands. There was a misunderstanding on my part about the minis. Those of you with physical minis have noted that they weren't in the box, which I thought they would be, but that was a misunderstanding on my end. The producer of the physical minis did a poor job with them and they need to be cleaned up (and in some cases, reprinted). The US supplier is handling it, and we'll update you with a new tracking number for the minis when they're sent out. 

Thanks for your patience, and enjoy! Meanwhile, if you'd like to hop on our discord and chat about this issue or the upcoming one, here's a link: discord.gg/mSZsTCX4Kr

US mailing has begun!

Roughly two thirds of all US backer rewards have now been mailed out. I'll be updating individual backers today with tracking numbers while we work on getting the rest out. We're in the home stretch now! Thank you for your patience as I stumble through this campaign.
