Episode 833 - Not Poképups!

Not Poképups!

December 26, 2011| Permalink | Comic Archive

And for something completely different!

This comes at the end of our holiday season where we are inevitably asked by at least three (3) people at every show we exhibit at, "Is this Pokemon/Is this the NEW Pokemon?"

Never fails. o_o;

Anyhoo - I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas (or whatever other festive event you may celebrate)! We have some extra special news for those who haven't heard:

Our 6th book has been fully-funded on Kickstarter!

This means, YES! We will have a book for 2012 and YES! It will arrive in time for Kawaii Kon, barring any unforeseen disasters or what not. *knocks on wood*

For those who still want to jump in on the incentive packages, they are still available until 11:49pm Hawaii Standard Time! I will start working on the commissions and other requests soon after I send the book to the printers on January 5th, but all packages will be delivered/shipped starting late March.

Also, check in at the Kickstarter blog for more info on our book progress, including previews of my Pollo story and extra strips that won't be published online.

Thanks again to all who have pledged to/shared about our project to print this next book! It's the bestest Christmas present in the world and I am truly grateful for your support!
