LAST 12HRS ON THE BOARD GAME'S KICKSTARTER!

Alright, let's get the urgent things out of the way first. This will be the last "call to action" for fans interested in becoming a Curse Chaser themselves.

Rock Manor Games is wrapping up the Kickstarter for the board game TONIGHT AT 11pm EST. This is the LAST chance to grab the game with all the unlocked content and extras and believe me it's a lot.

We have unlocked 16 (SIXTEEN!!!!) Stretch Goals so far and we're currently working towards two more before our time's up.

Will you venture out in the wastelands of the Pacific Ocean?

We're not that far behind with our own Kickstarter having already unlocked 15 (FIFTEEN!!!) Stretch Goals ourselves including our latest and probably most sought after:

A couple of things about the Slipcase as I started looking into the manufacturing and shipping in a way that every backer gets their rewards in mint condition.

First and foremost I can't do a real hardcover piece as it is just impractical to ship, I would never be able to guarantee the condition of the item if I'm sending an empty hardcover slipcase. It would surely get squashed on the way, bent out of shape or even worse.

The workaround is doing a FOLD IT YOURSELF CARDBOARD SLIPCASE. I've shipped a similar item to Lost Kids backers and I was able to ship it along with the book and they both helped protect each other to avoid creases, wrinkles or other damages. 

It's not as thick as a hardcover but it's still box material and sturdy enough to hold the comics no problem. I also wanted to announce the slipcase will have original artwork done by none other than FABIANO NEVES himself and it will be printed in full gloss as well!

We still have have three more planned Stretch Goals. Think we can hit them all?

Upper Deck's artist Mark Evans will be doing a brand new back-cover art for the Regular edition and the two Variants!

THE BONUS INSTAGRAM STRETCH GOAL - ALMOST THERE!

Alright, we're about a dozen followers short of unlocking an extra Mini-Print to all backers pledging towards stuff sent in the mail!

Anybody out there feel like following me on Instagram and helping me get to 4K followers?

Plus I'm always posting new artwork and other shenanigans over there so rest assured it's worth it and not just for the extra Mini-Print ;)

Project Spotlight

The ADVOCATOR Presents: SUMMER EDITION

Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/advocator/the-advocator-presents-summer-edition

Alright, my friends, I'd love to spotlight a project of a good friend and a big presence among indie comics. Rob Andersin is one of the biggest Indie Advocates out there and that's where this project hails from.

They have about 3 more days to raise an extra $700 and meet their goal. If anybody out there feels like helping out a true indie project give the link above a looksie.

As always thanks so much for rocking this Kickstarter like none other, you are all superstars in my book!!!

Until the next update and Stretch Goal, folks \o/

BEST!

Poll time: Help decide the $50K Stretch Goal!
almost 5 years ago – Tue, Jun 25, 2019 at 11:48:45 PM

WHAT SHOULD WE DO FOR THE $50K STRETCH GOAL?

You plan for it, you hope for the best but it's always surprising when you actually get there so even though I did have something planned already I wanted some input from you guys since you made this happen.

I had planned to offer a 90's SNES cardboard game replica box as the $50K Stretch Goal but there are a couple of other things we can do as well and you are all welcome to vote!

You don't have to sign in to vote, just hit the link, pick your SG item and hit SUBMIT. Voting will close as soon as we hit the Stretch Goal and I announce the winning option :D

This is the first SNES game box done for the Lost Kids Kickstarter. It came as a "fold-it-yourself" item.

THE BONUS INSTAGRAM STRETCH GOAL

I wanted to remind everyone we also have a couple of extra Social Stretch Goals going on. The first I talked about in yesterday's update (hitting 1.400 Backers) and the second is an Instagram goal.

I'm currently at 3,956 followers on Instagram. The moment I hit 4K followers over there every single pledge towards a print copy will also receive this gorgeous cross-over print between the Redhead and Impossible Jones.

It's that easy. Just go over to Instagram, find me over there (Felipe Cagno) hit follow and that's it.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikegnade/the-few-and-cursed-board-game?ref=50phvx

Yep, as we go into our final 48hrs on the Board Game's Kickstarter we're thiiiiiiiis close to hitting six digits and unlocking one extra playable character!

Clock is ticking... tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock =D

Project(s) Spotlight

Dan Brereton's Nocturnals Wax Pack Trading Card Set

Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1514049470/dan-breretons-nocturnals-wax-pack-trading-card-set

It's no secret I'm a huge card collector. Considering I've been doing my very own collection of Redhead trading cards it's pretty obvious I love cards.

And I also love Dan Breretons' artwork too (I wonder how Red would look in his awesome style...) so it's only fitting I spotlight this fantastic Kickstarter online for the next 50+ hours only!

The campaign has been fully funded already so pledge with confidence \o/

TREKKER: BATTLEFIELDS Graphic Novel

Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1896818977/trekker-battlefields-graphic-novel

Ron Randall is a fantastic and legendary creator and it's awesome being able to cross-promote with him. His latest TREKKER title is a Kickstarter "Project We Love" and already fully funded going for some Stretch Goals in his final 50+ hours as well.

He is a Few and Cursed fan and enthusiast, a good friend and a creator with tons of tales under his belt. 

From his own KS page: "TREKKER is my dream project. I began telling Mercy's story in the pages  of Dark Horse comics.  Now I've turned to Kickstarter to publish the  rest of her adventures. [...] In BATTLEFIELDS, Mercy St. Clair reluctantly leaves the arms of her  beloved Molly to sign up for her most explosive, high-stakes journey yet  as she travels into the farthest, darkest reaches of the galaxy. There she is thrust into ground zero of a raging war zone. Will she survive to  continue her quest for answers in her past that will determine not only  her own future, but the course of her entire world?"

There you go, my friends, two excellent Kickstarters ending in the next couple of days worth checking out. 

Thanks so much for your much beloved support towards the Redhead and The Few and Cursed. I can't wait to unlock every single Phase II Stretch Goal and I truly believe we can do it in the next week!

All the best!

Two more Stretch Goals smoked! The SLIPCASE to hold all six issues is next \o/
almost 5 years ago – Mon, Jun 24, 2019 at 10:55:50 PM

Well... I will be damned!

When I was planning the Stretch Goals I really hoped to get all the way up to $45K. It would represent a growth in both backers and funding and I wanted to honor and celebrate that with the most ambitious Stretch Goal add-on possible.

I sincerely thought we would go into the final 48hrs still hopeful to hit that $45K. Can you imagine my surprise hitting $43K already and matching the same number of backers we had for the Kickstarter to fund issue #5 with over a week left?!?!?

That's Stretch Goal #14 unlocked over the weekend!
That's Stretch Goal #14 unlocked over the weekend!

Perhaps if I say IT enough times out loud it really makes it real... WITH OVER A WEEK LEFT WE HAVE MATCHED THE MOST BACKERS I'VE EVER HAD IN A SINGLE KICKSTARTER AND HAVE RAISED MORE THAN ANY OTHER TFAC BOOK...

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! THANK YOU!!!!

I just don't know what to say except thank you so much and continue doing whatever it is you are all doing because it's working beyond my wildest expectations!!!

Sure, I know you are not supposed to count your chickens before they hatch but I think it's time now for me to actually figure out how to manufacture and ship the slipcase in a way that every single backers get theirs in mint condition so I've already started looking into it.

Expect more details about it in the next few days but know that the SLIPCASE will feature brand new artwork exclusively done for it by FABIANO NEVES.

And this is Stretch Goal #13 unlocked on Friday!
And this is Stretch Goal #13 unlocked on Friday!

On top of all the Stretch Goals still planned for Phase 2 all the way up to $52K let's not forget we still have one extra Stretch Goal happening.

That's right \o/

BONUS GOAL

The BOARD GAME Kickstarter ends THIS THURSDAY (JUN. 27th) at 11:00PM EST

We're going into the final few days of the Kickstarter to fund the Board Game based on the comics by Rock Manor Games. Much like this Kickstarter we've also been doing quite well over there too unlocking a plethora of Stretch Goals as well!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikegnade/the-few-and-cursed-board-game?ref=50phvx

We are really excited to hit $100K to unlock ALISTAIR FAIRWEATHER as a playable character and announce a new round of Stretch Goals. If you were waiting to see how much awesome content we would unlock by the end of the campaign I'd say the above is more than worth any expectations!

And we can go even further, Mike Gnade and I really believe we are on track to have a monster last 48hrs online so who knows how much more content we will unlock...

Thank you all so much for making these past few weeks quite special and fulfilling for me. I love this universe and it's awesome knowing I can continue playing in this sandbox knowing you all have my back.

All the best!

Felipe

One more Stretch Goal unlocked making it an even DOZEN!!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, Jun 21, 2019 at 01:16:26 AM

A dozen Stretch Goals unlocked!!!

You are all incredible, what a thrill ride this Kickstarter has been and I can't believe we have come so far already. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR!!! \o/

We've unlocked the Set of Three Post-cards and we are now officially going after the COLLECTIBLE METAL COIN #3! 

We've done two of these coins already - which will be available as an add-on through the Pledge Manager - and it's only fitting we do a third one to complete the set!

In past Kickstarters this Stretch Goal was among our last to reach so it's pretty exciting we are going to be able to hit that with more than enough time to go after the Hardcover Slipcase!!

LAST WEEK TO GET THE BOARD GAME AND ALL THE STRETCH GOALS UNLOCKED!  

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikegnade/the-few-and-cursed-board-game?ref=50phvx

The Kickstarter for The Few and Cursed Board Game ends next Thursday Jun 27th at 11pm EST and I strongly suggest you get on it!

I believe we are doing pretty well as far as Stretch Goals with the game as well, check out how much content was unlocked already keeping in mind everything under the Deluxe edition is Kickstarter Exclusive!

Meaning these won't be available in retail so really what are you waiting for? 

Our next Stretch Goal is a pretty cool one, we're doubling the fun by offering a dual-sided board allowing you to explore the Pacific Ocean at night. The back side will have all new paths with different costs so while the locations are  the same, navigating the board will feel completely different!

If the Few and Cursed and Rock Manor Games can each get 100 new Facebook Fans, we will unlock the dual sided board. As of this writing, that means that RMG needs to hit 1600 fans and FAC needs to reach 3600 fans.  

Project Spotlight + Social Stretch Goal!

IMPOSSIBLE JONES: GRIN & GRITTY! A Graphic Novel 

Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1227066666/impossible-jones-grin-and-gritty-a-graphic-novel

The Redhead joins forces with Impossible Jones!

Super awesome comic creator Karl Kessel has a new title up on Kickstarter and he suggested a sort of cross-over between our characters for a fun dual promotion.

Eisner nominee David Hahn pencilled the art, Karl did the inks and Ivanna Matilla handled the colors for this really gorgeous piece of artwork that will be given away as a mini-print in EVERY single pledge towards a print copy of the book!

To unlock this exclusive Mini-Print simply go over to my Instagram account and give it a "Follow." That's it!

Once my account goes over 4K followers the mini-print will be automatically added to your rewards. All I'm looking for is 60 people willing to follow me on Instagram and enjoy some beautiful art and insight into my work.

Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/felipecagno/

Karl and David are two fantastic creators that have done work for Marvel, DC Comics and other publishers so it's a real pleasure seeing their creator-owned title getting so much traction on Kickstarter. They have over 600 backers already and are more than halfway through their goal.

From their own page: "A thief gets powers, is mistaken for a superhero— and runs with it.  Why not? Comes with some great perks. Of course, she has no intention of  reforming— with these powers? Are you kidding?!— it's just sometimes there's no better place to hide than in plain sight.

IMPOSSIBLE, you say?

EXACTLY!

Imagine Harley Quinn meets Plastic Man in the Marvel Universe with a little Dick Tracy thrown in. Kind of."

They also have their own version of the print colored by the phenomenal Jeromy Colwell so if you back both projects you get twice as many mini-prints \o/

Once again thanks so much for your overwhelming display of love towards Red and The Few and Cursed! I can't wait for the next Update announcing an extra collectible coin!

All the best!
