      - ONE-TIME ONLY DARK HORSE PRINT EDITION of Eric Powell's FAVORITE "THE GOON" ISSUE - IS this one a printed hardcover or softcover comic or is it a PDF?

      @Trevis, thanx, tell me if you get an answer before sunday :) I think it was just to confirm the T-shirt size and what lito you wanted, the poster doesn't have multiple size or design...let's hope so!

      @Romeo, same with mine. I wasn't sure so I sent a message since I backed the 150$ tier.

      Hi,
      I've just receive a "Shipment Details Confirmation‏" mail, everything is correct except I don't see the "movie poster" in the list.... Is that ok or do I have to answer something is missing?

      Thanx for the answer!

      Jeritza,
      I made the 35$ pledge, it says january but I didn't got the print yet.

      Creator FreakOutChick on April 3

      @Jeritza Goris: What have you received? So far, I haven't heard a peep about shipping anything, nor have I received anything from Goon in the mail.

    13. Fuu9.small

      Creator Jeritza Goris on April 3

      @Sleepy
      It's usually the guessed date below the pledge description. For instance, the $15 pledge has an estimated delivery of Jan 2013. (and yeah, they've been delivered)

      This site is running a "history of" Goon by picking out their favorite "panels in poor taste". Pretty cool idea and worth a look: http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/2013/03/26/a-history-of-the-goon-through-its-most-despicable-panels-part-1/

      I'm in the same boat as John Hill. Any word on the shipping? The post offices here are notorious for losing mail and I want to make sure I could catch this one before they give me the run-around.

      Any update on when art or shirts will be shipped? I just want to make sure mine didn't get lost in the mail, etc.

      Creator René Kragh Pedersen on March 19

      I can only second Peter's comment. Even if I had an iPad I'd still want the files in a format I can move as I see fit. That's what "receiving" means. It's pretty much guaranteed that I won't be sitting at my home computer, reading through the browser. :-(
      I was not aware that Dark Horse adheres to an "industry standard" that is so arcane, because this is my first digital comic. I _am_ aware of the difference between DRM and actual receivership of files, and this does not deliver what was impressed upon me I would get.

      I just redeemed my comic bundle. I have a question about The Goon, as I am new to the series. Is the story continued within each issue or is each issue another tale involving the characters?

      Hi, I've emailed thegoonmovie@blur.com about not receiving any of the reward emails but haven't heard anything in days. Reading the comments in the updates and here, there seems to be a sizeable amount of people in the same situation. Can we please get an update on on what's being done? Thanks.

      Creator Peter McAndrew on March 7

      Saying that we'll receive a digital bundle implies that we will receive digital files. Showing a picture of the comic on an iPad implies ONLY that the digital files CAN be viewed on an iPad - not that we NEED an iPad to be able to view them decently or even RECEIVE the files in the first place. Nowhere in any of the descriptions of the campaign was there mention that if I wanted to be able to receive and view the content promised by my pledge level I would need to spend over half a grand on an inferior device.

    25. Img_2595.small

      Creator Blur Studio on March 6

      Sorry Peter, we weren't ignoring your comment... we just thought our other responses in the thread might have answered your question. To summarize, the digital comics bundle IS a download to your mobile or tablet device which can be viewed WHENEVER you want, WHEREVER you want. (no need to connect to internet once you've downloaded the comics via the Dark Horse app) That's what was described in the reward, and it's the same grammar used by ALL of Dark Horse's digital content, whether it's related to this kickstarter or not. If you refer to the digital bundle reward graphic at the bottom of the main kickstarter page, you'll see it's a mockup of the Goon comics displayed on an iPad, which is the preferred method of 'receiving' this digital bundle. The secondary option is viewing them on your PC, which involves the browser-based application you might be referring to. Hope this helps clarify... thanks!

    26. Scurvy_dogs_avatar_1_.small

      Creator Peter McAndrew on March 6

      As I posted in the update comments and had no response, receiving access to digital content is not the same as receiving a digital bundle like we were promised. Please give us what we were promised.

      I thought we would actually be able to own the digital comics, not only the right to read them.

    29. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator René Kragh Pedersen on March 2

      It seems "receive a digital bundle" actually means "receive access to medieval always-online digital rights managed viewer".
      How I can I _actually_ receive my digital bundle, say as pdfs?
      Having to be online, and use a terrible reader in my browser is not at all what I expected.

      Creator René Kragh Pedersen on March 2

      Shadow Stalker, I had accidentally copied an extra space in at the end of my redemption code and got the same error. Inputting the code exactly as it is in the mail worked for me.

      Creator Shadow Stalker on March 2

      Hey anyone else having trouble redeeming the code for the comics?
      I redeem the KS code and it says, Sorry, the code you entered is not valid.

      I'm sure you will, but when sending the poster can you please make sure you pack the ends well? I've been burned previously by people not properly packing their posters and the edges get wrecked in transit! I'm looking forward to showing off my new poster and all the other gear when it comes! Great job on the campaign!

      Thanks Pierre for clearing that up, I forgot about the lower pledges... and yeah, that makes me happy :). Also, anyone knows if there's a way to get a backer shirt now? As I said, didn't afford back then., but I'd like to have that shirt.

    44. Missing_small

      Creator Pierre-Antoine Beaujean on February 12

      I think that when you took the $50 pledge, you would get the $35 reward (+ $10 international) which is "the GOON KICKSTARTER COMIC BOOK EXCLUSIVE! This is a ONE-TIME ONLY DARK HORSE PRINT EDITION of Eric Powell's FAVORITE "THE GOON" ISSUE with an EXCLUSIVE KICKSTARTER COVER! (Which issue will it be? Donate and find out!) Includes a special message from producer DAVID FINCHER and an explanation from Eric on WHY he chose the issue!"... and now, I think you are happy

      Creator Atti on February 11

      Not sure why am I asked for shipping (postal) address for the $50 pledge. No physical goods there, isn't it? Anyone knows why? I sure wanted the one ($95 international) that includes the shirt, but didn't afford back then.

      I agree with Rosie. A size chart for T-shirts would be appreciated. Wouldn't want to get the wrong size shipped to England.

      Creator Rosie Diss on February 7

      I've received my email about filling in my details for my prizes, but when requesting my t-shirt size, I'm a little stuck on what size to have- is it possible to reference to a size-chart of some sort? Thanks~

      Just got my mail today requesting my T-shirt size and shipping details, worry not my fellow goon backers, they are working on your goodies, with over 7k of us it'll take a little time to all get on track.
