Latest Updates from Our Project:

Canceled II is live now!
8 months ago – Tue, Aug 15, 2023 at 06:09:04 AM

Hey Stake fans, just wanted to touch base and let you know while we're working on Stake Vol 2, we have a new Kickstarter campaign for my horror series Canceled!

CHECK IT OUT HERE!

Canceled is a horror comic about a clown, Larry, that lives in the airwaves and uses his powers for evil to influence susceptible people to take revenge... This new installment can be read without reading the first issue! In Canceled II Y2k is looming and Somaya works diligently to secure her office’s computer systems from impending doom. As she toils away, her coworkers play evil tricks on her. When a prank gone wrong leaves Somaya mentally devastated, digital clown Larry returns to offer a helping hand.

We have 5 covers to chose from (Alan Quah, Ben Templesmith, Ingrid Gala, Jimbo Salgado, and Jonathan Grimm Art) and all the cool styles you're used to from my campaigns, including the really cool acrylic cover we introduced with The Hive last year:


Back in the first 48 hours and get this awesome 8 page Canceled II Ashcan Preview edition with a black and white Jimbo Salgado cover:

Physical backers will receive a print copy and digital backers will receive a digital version!

CHECK IT OUT HERE!

Hope to see you there!

Last wave of CGC Books Have Finally Arrived and Canceled II #1 is coming!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Nov 02, 2022 at 06:39:35 AM

Hey all,

Just wanted to drop in and give you a quick update.

We have FINALLY received the last of the CGC books! I will be shipping them out by the end of the weekend to all who purchased them!

CANCELED II #1 is coming soon to...BackerKit!

This is a brand new platform and we will be giving it shot on the campaign for Canceled, my horror series that released the first one-shot issue earlier this year.

It told the story of Larry, a washed-up 1950s kids show host that found himself replaced by Cruncho the Clown. Larry tried to destroy the local town television tower, but instead got himself electrocuted...and sucked into the airwaves.
Canceled is back and Larry has someone new to play with! Y2k is looming and Somaya works diligently to secure her office's computer systems from impending doom. As she toils away, her coworkers play evil tricks on her. When a prank gone wrong leaves Somaya mentally devastated, digital clown Larry returns to offer a helping hand...

Sign up to back it here!

Anyone who signs up with that link and backs the campaign will received a free sticker:

Digital backers will received a png file so they can print their own sticker and show they were canceled as well.

Hope you'll join us!!

First wave of CGC is in and shipped! A new cover is available for Stake Presents: Jessamy #1!

All but 5 orders have been fulfilled!

There are just a couple of graded books that are still outstanding, I had to break the CGC order into 3 separate submissions, so there are still two outstanding at this point. Hopefully these will be in soon and we can finish this campaign off!

Stake Presents: Jessamy #3 available for pre-order

For those of you who missed the campaign, but would still like to get #3, the BackerKit pre-order page is live until we lock orders sometime later this month.

You click the image above or here to visit the pre-order page!


Special Cover Added from Tiffany Reed and Mad Pirate Comics!

It's always great to get to work with friends again :) Mad Pirate Comics and Tiffany Reed (formerly Groves). We're making her cover for Stake Presents: Jessamy #1 available to you on the pre-order page in trade dress and black and white virgin editions.

The cover captures Jessamy's pirate look from her trip across the Atlantic in issue 1!

Mad Pirate will also have very limited foils and metals available:

Stay tuned for instructions on getting that beauty!

Archivals are in! Plus - check Charlie Stickney, Will Allred, and...me on Blake's Buzz tonight!

Good evening all!

Just getting back from San Diego Comic Con and man was it a blast!

It was great seeing so many friends and making new ones at the biggest comic convention in the world.

It's certainly a topic that may come up in tonight's live show with awesome indie supporter Blake on Blake's Buzz!

Live at 10PM EST!

White Ash's own Charlie Stickney and Crossover Division's Will Allred will be joining the craziness that is a Blake's Buzz show. Make sure you tune in for what promises to be a wild time!


Archival Edition

While graded books are still with CGC,  for those of you waiting on your archival editions of #2, they are in hand and they are beautiful!

These will be packed and shipped this weekend!


Did you miss this and still want it? It's available on the campaign for Stake Presents: Jessamy #1-3 right now!

Fulfillment is near complete!

First of all, thank you all so much for your patience. It's been a daunting task, but the fulfillment of this campaign is complete except for a few stragglers (CGC books and Archival Edition).

With the help of my awesome new assistant, Johnny, we were able to knock out a lot of these packages in what feels like a relatively short amount of time. 

As you get your packages make sure you let me know how we did!

Stake Presents: Jessamy #1 -3 Campaign is live tomorrow!

The new campaign will be launching tomorrow morning around 10AM! I'm really excited for you all to see it and so is Jessamy:

Make sure back early for your chance at a this early bird special!

We really hope you'll come join us for the finale!
