The Redeemers Issue One

Created by Shannon Potratz

A weird western that pits the forces of Heaven against the forces of Hell!

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Books are at the Warehouse!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Aug 22, 2022 at 09:05:34 PM

Hello everybody!

Thank you all for your patience! I wanted to take a moment and get you all an update. 

First and foremost, I have confirmation that the books have arrived at our warehouse!

The warehouse is receiving everything right now and we should have an update on shipping in the next week. I'm so sorry this has taken so long.

Now, as part of the campaign, we also offered a bunch of extras. Every print backer will get -

1. A sticker,

2. A limited edition print,

3. A limited edition print by Patrick Blaine,

4. A limited edition set of three wanted Postcards,

5. A second limited edition set of three wanted Postcards,

6. A limited edition ashcan preview of issue two.

That's a lot of extra stuff and every extra item adds to both the weight and the packing fee at our warehouse. 

SHIPPING

Our shipping rates came in a bit higher than we anticipated before I considered all the extras. 

  • Right now, shipping via First Class (for the comic and freebies only) comes in around $9 (shipping is insane right now). That's higher than we estimated for the campaign.
  • Shipping via Media Mail comes in around $7.29, which is more in-line with our initial estimate (but we can't ship the extras through media mail).

So, we're going to give you all two options - if you would like all the free extras, we'll ship via First Class. If you only want the book, we'll ship media mail. 

We'll assume you want the extras unless you let us know you only want the book. If you only want the book, please email me directly to [email protected] and I'll set your rate in Backerkit to $7.29.

We're going to give you the next week and a half to let us know your preference!

Sorry again for the delay and the shipping trouble!

Thank you!

Books are almost ready!

Greetings Backers!

My apologies for not getting an update out sooner. This was supposed to be out weeks ago. It's been a crazy couple of months but I have received word that The Redeemers books are due to arrive at our warehouse on July 29th. They'll be shipping to all our backers shortly after that, well ahead of our September shipping goal!

In addition, I am in the process of collecting requests and producing art for the black & white inked commissions, The Redeemers original concept art sketches, the original Shannon Potratz sketch art, as well as the original pages.

As a 'thank you' to all of our print backers for your patience, we'll be including a limited edition Dragonring collector card featuring art by Dragonring and The Redeemers artist, Shannon Potratz. These cards will never again be reprinted, so these are limited to only our backers!

Again, thank you so much for your patience!

We did it!

What a ride it's been!

We reached our final Stretch Goal! The response to our book has been beyond anything we could have hoped for! HUGE thanks to all of you who liked, commented, shared, spread the word, and most of all backed The Redeemers! We couldn't have done this without your overwhelming support!

The next step is getting this in your hands! 

The book is already off to the printer and we're hoping to have books in hand to ship in the next 3 to 4 weeks. I will keep you all updated if we experience any delays. In the meantime, I will be messaging all of you who backed the commission tier to get your input on the single, inked character you would like for your original piece of art! Likewise, I'll be contacting those of you who backed the original sketch tiers to find out which of those selected pieces you want.

We are as excited to get these amazing items in your hands as you are to have them! So we'll keep you posted on the status as best we can!

The Final Stretch!

We are now down to the last 24 hours...

...And SO close to hitting 7k and our final Stretch Goal! Regardless of where we end up, we couldn't be more thrilled with the response to our debut issue of The Redeemers. You guys, our Backers, have been nothing short of amazing! We are so humbled by your generous support!

Down to crunch time!

3 Days Left!

With only 3 days left, we've still got a ways to go before we hit our sixth and final Stretch Goal. As a reminder, all our Print Backers will receive a 6-page Ashcan Preview Edition of The Redeemers Issue 2 if we can hit $7000. Here is a little sneak peak of what you'll see:

I would love for you guys to get this special Kickstarter exclusive! So help us in the final stretch to 7K!

And THANK YOU all! Regardless of where we land in these final days, the response to this dream-come-true has been nothing short of overwhelming!
