      My books arrived on Monday!!! I'm in Spain. They look great. But I have to admit that buying the 4 books I thought that they all where going to be together in one big book, I understand why isn't that way. But is OK. I looooove them anyways.

      Great job!!!!!

      I've been a fan of Yuko's work for a little while now, so I'm glad to be able to back this project and discover some new artists. I hope you can keep making awesome things like this!

      I just wanted to say that as a long time reader of all of your webcomics that I am not only proud to have contributed but incredibly excited. I really feel that the reason that webcomic artists can be so successful with things like this is because you guys and girls give so much away from free that it only makes sense that when given the opportunity your readers and fans repay that in spades. Congratulations! Can't wait for all my goodies : )

      I absolutely love Johnny Wander and can't wait to see the art book. I've seen some of Rice Boy and Tiny Kitten Teeth as well and really love Dahm and Dreistadt's work. :)

      Never read anything by K C Green but Gunshow looks hilarious.

      Normally I wouldn't pay this much money for a book of artwork, but this is no ordinary book. For me, this is just as much purchasing a book as it is saying thanks to all four of the wonderful independent artists that have kept my spirits high through foul weather and asked for nothing in return. Thanks to all of you, I'm a massive fan. Good luck with Benign Kingdom! I'll be watching from the wings.
