Okay folks-- all books that have not already been delivered should either have arrived, or be on the way (I'm looking at you, Canada, England, and Germany!).

Earlier this week, we posted the pdf links for Buzzboy and Roboy GN's.

THis leaves a few final items to go, and then, the magic of Jamar's Leon will hit us all! :)

One final shout out to our friend (and backer) Samax Amen, who has another all ages Kickstarter project wrapping up:

Champion of Children vol. 1: I'm Known as the Champ Fund

Please check it out!

Hey gang, as promised, here are the links to our first two books, in digital format.

These were specially created for our $10 donors, and will be shared with all our backers! And, to our friendly donors taking no reward, we hope you will enjoy these books as well.

Hopefully, anyone you pass this on to will decide to try out one of our books, which the can get at the Red Giant store here>>

As always, thanks for your support!

Okay, because you demanded it-- and I do mean demanded, and we promised, here is the result of last week's board meeting...

1. Leon, Protector of the Playground - Jamar had determined to give this book, all it deserves, and all you deserve, he will be working and re-working the book over the next two months, with a delivery date of Fall 2012.

As you may recall, when we first pitched the Buzzboy/Roboy/Leon package, BB and RR were already in the can story and art-wise, so the heavy lifting left was on Jamar's back. J Dot's work as an educator, as well as comics pro commitments predating the Kickstarter, really doubled up surprisingly, and he determined that he could either hack it out or do it right.

The delay shows he is doing it right-- and Jamar finally had to regroup and come up with a reasonable date to get it done, and make it great. We're sorry you won't have Leon's adventures until sometime in October, probably, but hopefully you will see this was worth the wait.

2. Mis-shipped (or unshipped) books. John was in charge of all shipping, and he takes full blame for the mistakes in getting you your books. Originally there were two lists-- the "I wabt them now" crew, and the "I'll wait for all three" crew. But because it was gonna be awhile, we decided as a group to send them when we had Buzzboy and Roboy, to everyone.

Except John forgot that there were TWO lists. So now he is checking twice and sending books out this week for )hopefully) everyone.

3. PDF's of the books - again, an oversight. Some had ordered just the pdf's and while this should have been the easiest thing to get done, more than one of us thought the other was doing it.

We really appreciate everyone's support and patience, and know that we have not been perfect in getting items out-- we really feel for the "Order of the Stick" author, and his 15,000 orders he needs to fill (okay, we're pretty jealous too! But have you read it? It's good stuff!), but we'll continue to do our best, and be better the next time.

Finally, is there anything we forgot? Let us know. And thanks.
