Behold: my 4 new comic books!
🕑 Added 2023-11-09 09:00:04 +0000 UTCHi Patreon supporters,
You might have seen this info through my regular email list, but I thought I'd post to Patreon regardless.
I have just released printed versions of Energy Slaves, Peak Oil, War on Drugs, and Supernormal Stimuli. This is the first time that these titles have been in physical form (excluding a very small run of WoD back in 2013).
It is great to be able to hold these comics and flip through the pages.
Here are some photos of the double-wide pages on Peak Oil, to get a sense of it.
That's a little snapshot of a handful of pages from that 64-page double-wide comic book.
Preparing the books for print lots of time to do little nips and tucks, to make everything fit in the printer's constraints. These comics were drawn in a period spanning 2012 to 2017. When reviewing the artwork, I found myself admiring some of the artistic and narrative choices that I made all those years ago. Almost as if they were drawn by a different person to my 2023 self!
You can buy copies of these new comics through my online store. Note that the cheapest way to buy these comics is through my Mega Value Pack, which includes all 6 comic books, plus 2 bonus postcards of your choice.
The beauty of this Mega Value Pack is that the total weight is 498 grams, which is below the 500 gram cut-off where Australia Post’s international postage fees jumps from $13.00 to $35.00(!) (This weight requirement is the reason why I can only include two postcards of your choice, rather than the whole set of six.)
Buy the mega value pack via my online store, and be sure to note which two postcards you want with your order! (Use the ‘add a note to the seller’ space in the checkout to add this postcard preference.)
Thanks for your continued support! More news soon,
Stuart
PS: Note that I already sent copies of these new comic books to my supporters on the 'postcard penpals' rewards tier (i.e. US$20 per month or more, or equivalent). I sent these packages 3 weeks ago on 20 October, so it is possible that they have not yet arrived through the post. Get in touch if you have any questions about whether or not you were included in this mail-out.
