Alright, so by now you have probably been contacted to let you know our Kickstarter campaign has ended. But I wanted to take a moment and thank you all for your support. Though we didn't meet our goal, you have all made this journey a very enjoyable and memorable one. Thank you for all you have done, sharing, tweeting, posting, pledging, we couldn't have come as far as we did without your help:)

Just a reminder to anyone who would still like issues of the series, we have issues #1-4 available on our website www.woeisoz.com, currently at discounted bundle rates, so please feel free to come by and check it out! If you would like to keep up on the continuing adventures of Woe Is Oz, don't forget to "like" our facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/WoeIsOz) and follow us on twitter, where we have the most updated news.

We thank each and every one of you for believing in our series and in us. We are so lucky to have such wonderful fans!

As we enter into our last day for our Woe Is Oz kickstarter, we would like to take a moment to thank all of you who took the time to pledge and helped to get the word out about the project. Whatever the outcome of the project, all your help, kind words and support made this whole endeavor an incredibly enjoyable experience. The Woe Is Oz creative team is in discussions for what comes next for the series. We sincerely hope we reach our goal, but we are currently at 55% and time is running out. If you have any friends, family, or co-workers who are fans of Oz, fans of comics, or think would enjoy the project, now is the time to let them know  http://tinyurl.com/woeisoz .

If the Kickstarter does not go through and you would still like to purchase issues of the series, we encourage you to visit our website at www.woeisoz.com where we currently have issues #1-4 available at discounted bundle rates.  

We at Woe Is Oz are so lucky to have such amazing fans, we appreciate you all!

Update #8 · Sep 10, 2012 · comment

Hey backers!

Less than 4 days to go, and we're 42% funded! We need another $9,078 in order for us to bring some Woe Is Oz to a comic party near you, and we DEFINITELY want to do that. In fact, it's all we've been thinking about.

Don't let the time slip by! It's not too late to share the project with friends, family, and co-workers on facebook and twitter, here is a link to share http://tinyurl.com/woeisoz. Every dollar brings us closer to our goal. Remember:

There's no place like Woe Is Oz Kickstarter!
