Final printing steps in process. Rewards will ship this month! Digital editions next week!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Dec 07, 2022 at 02:43:19 PM

We are working hard to fulfill your rewards.  I have the print editions of The Killing Machine #2 and Woodstake #2 in hand, and they look great.  The SEX-6000 print edition should arrive next week.  We have completed the content for the collector's editions with lots of extra pages of process and behind the scenes content. The final step is creating the Spot UV layers for the collector's editions.  We are using the same printing process as we did for the EroTech #1 collector's edition, which is a thing of beauty.  Every collector's edition comes with FREE readers so you can keep your collector's edition pristine.

We will deliver all digital rewards at the end of next week! 

Shipped rewards will be mailed starting the following week and will be completed before the end of the year.  Please allow a little extra time for delivery given the holiday mail season.

We are already hard at work on the next issues.  Felipe had a little fun creating some bloody hippies which I wanted to share with you.  This is a model for Sage, a character you will meet in issue #3.

On behalf of everyone at SHP Comics, we want to thank you again for backing this project and to wish you and your loved ones all the best for this holiday season and the New Year!

Thank you all for your support.  I can't wait to get these comics into your hands (physically or digitally).  The next two weeks will be quiet as Kickstarter collects your pledges.  Once that is done, I will be sending out the surveys where you can confirm both your pledge and shipping address.  The surveys will be coming from BackerKit.  Please try to respond to them in a timely manner to keep everything moving and to receive your rewards as soon as possible.

From myself, all of the artists, letterers, proof-readers and collaborators, thank you for a successful campaign, and for helping us to bring these stories to life!

Final 36 Hours - Holographic Stickers for All!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Nov 02, 2022 at 03:23:24 AM

Thanks to all of our backers.

Woodstake #2 is at the printer.  We are really proud of this issue.  I have finished the script for issue #3, which is where the story really takes off and we add some black humor into the horror.  Felipe is already coloring the first 5 pages, and we expect this issue to be available early next year.

Michel is finishing the final two pages of The Killing Machine #2.  I think you will love this issue as the depth of the story starts to be revealed.  I am finishing up the script for issue #3 and can't wait until you get to read it.

Geoffrey is hard at work on The SEX-6000, and we are already planning the campaign EroTech #2 (Feb 2023).  Issue #2 is tentatively titled Paul's Promise.  We are starting to reach out to guest artists for variant covers and looking to get a European printer so that we can make print copies available to our European readers at a reasonable cost.  We are also looking for a way to support our Australian readers with cheaper shipping.

As always, our backers should expect random acts of kindness -- free reader copies and free swag in the box.  You make the indie comics world go 'round!

We are fully funded! First Stretch Goal - Holographic Sticker!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Oct 19, 2022 at 08:37:05 AM

We did it!  The project is now fully funded, and all of you will receive a FREE 4x6 postcard of the SEX-6000 cover.  Geoffrey and I are finalizing the page sketches and are on schedule to begin shipment by early December.

The first stretch goal will be a Killing Machine holographic sticker.  These looks really cool printed in holo.

More updates: Woodstake #2 is in final proofing and will be sent to the printer early next week.  The Killing Machine #2 will be sent to the printer by 11/15.

Thank you for your support.  Tell your friends, get a sticker!
