Holy Cats! ComiXology Unlocked! Plus, We're Getting Published... In Germany!!!
So many updates today, I'm gonna do 'em multiple bullet-point style:
***We have exceeded our stretch goal by $117! That means we're going to get to do a 3,000 copy print of "Detective Honeybear and the Terrible Llamas... Which also means we can seriously look into bigger distribution methods to stores, like Diamond. We should also have waaaay more than enough for you guys, which is nice, too.
***Oh yeah, that ALSO means... FREE comiXology downloads unlocked for everyone who has pledged $10 or more. You'll be getting those after the Kickstarter is done, but we're so excited to be able to offer that to you all! Hooray!
***Here's the craziest news so far, which I teased the other day: Detective Honeybear is getting published... In Germany! No joke! A really fantastic indie comics publisher called Dani Books will be publishing a German translation of the "Detective Honeybear: Special Edition" including both stories, and some bonus materials. In German. Really.
It won't hit (German) comic book stands until next year, but in the meantime, Dani Books has their own crowd-funding project going on, for an art book about the incredible Don Rosa. Check it out here: http://www.indiegogo.com/donrosa-art
So with all that out of the way, and six days to go, we're going to add one more stretch goal. I should have news on exactly what that is later today... And thanks again for all your support, I really can not thank you all enough.
