We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on June 17, 2012.

$55,000 Achieved!

Update #8 · Jun 1, 2012 · 19 comments

If you have a gaping hole in your heart because you still have to wait for your book to arrive, at least you can rest easy knowing you will be able to patch it up, because all book orders will now come with a Luigi's Vacuums patch! It will probably have a diameter somewhere around 2.5".

To complete the quartet of Awkward Zombie-themed adhesive objects, our next goal is a head-exploding $70,000. If reached, all book orders will ALSO include an incredibly fancy, shiny and high-class enamel AZ pin. It will go great with your monocle, which definitely just popped off your face right now. HOLY WHAT, THAT'S SO FANCY, I CAN'T EVEN HANDLE IT. It will look a little something like this.

      Let's see... with five days left to go? $100,000!

      $29,593 should be hard to raise, right?

      Wow, at $62, 289.00, we're just over 7 times what Katie was originally asking for! That's crazy!

      Hey, another Dane! I forgot about the import fee :-/ I pledged $110 for the $95 reward. That is gonna be $25 or something. I wonder what they are gonna do if there is no recipe in the package. Hey, Katie! If ya read this and if you are gonna include a recipe make sure to define what I paid for the physical goods so I am not taxed for the PDF and whatnot.

      I'm Danish though, so I'd expect a 160dkk import fee and 25% import tax as well. That amounts to what? Almost around 30 euros more? :/

      I pledged 40$. As I live in Europe, this equates to something like 32€. A Comic Book costs between 10-20€ around here, with the big ones more like 20€. And this one will be all fancy and glossy AND you get a button, a patch, stickers and a fancy pin that goes fabulous with my monocle. So 32€ isn't really that much to ask. As I prefer softcover to hardcover nearly every time, it's a win-win situation.

      I've having the exact same issue and thoughts as Frank Talbot. A digital pledge beyond the $5 one would be a no-brainer upgrade from my existing one, which right now consists of just the pdf.

      Another pledge level would be great for us international backers. I'd back more than $5 but it means going to $40, so $35 extra (+ duty fees probably) for a book I'm already getting a PDF of. A digital+ package at something like $15-20 would be great and would help reach 100k.

      My monocle popped off my face so hard, I'm going to have to buy a new monocle.

      The $5 people can get a web-resolution picture of the Luigi's Vacuums patch.

      Will the pin include the bling and dancing cats?

      Might be time to start thinking about the $100,000 stretch goal.

      We're only around the halfway mark of this.. I think 70k is totally possible, the numbers have slowed down but they have definatly not stopped, I gotta admit I am curiouse of just how much profit Katie is getting at the moment.. I like to think that it's enough money to make her want to jump about and just .. leave her speachless x3
