Wow! Great job guys!

Well we did hit the $50k goal which frankly was the main one we hoped you would hit.  We are truly truly thankful to everyone for your love and support on this and all of our projects.

What is next?  Well per the standard rules, we will now work on the Backer Kit so that 15 days from now we can launch it and take down all of your info as well as offer the chance to get other merchandise and finalize your orders withe upgrades, etc.  We have to wait that long because that is how long Kickstarter wants to take to process orders through their site BEFORE moving out to third party software like Backer Kit.

Rest assured when the time comes we will walk everyone through backer kit process as well.  And we will still update here from time to time and keep you informed with pictures and updates.

Also keep eyes peeled for the next chapter of White Widow the comic coming soon with a special two-part crossover event that begins in White Widow #5 and culminates in the launch of a new ongoing series by Jamie and Benny titled, I MAKE BOYS CRY!

Thank you all once again for being a part of our very first collected volumes!  You truly inspire us!  Now, off to bed to pass out.

Last push... how HIGH can we go?!?
about 4 years ago – Tue, Mar 17, 2020 at 02:19:24 AM

We are literally inches (ok, technically we're literally $400, not inches... but I'm waxing poetic) away from unlocking the coveted 8th Push Goal and everyone with physical rewards receiving their FREE first printing of White Widow #2A (cover by Jamie Tyndall).

But that's not all.  We want everyone to know that we build these push goal tiers so things only get bigger and better the higher we go.  So here are the NEXT TWO PUSH GOALS after that...  We've already shown you in the last update (check there if you missed it) the lenticular cards that you can unlock at $55k, but NOW we are revealing the $60k GOAL TEN!!!

That's right... we would be creating a BRAND NEW 8 PAGE STORY featuring BLOOD WIDOW AND RECLUSE!  The writer already has a cool concept that would be action-packed and a lot of fun.  This story would be included in the Graphic Novel editions (both hardcover and softcover)... but on top of that EVERYONE who backs at EVERY level would get the DIGITAL EDITION of the story as well!  This is a brand new story and NOT one that is merely a reprint!

Now... there's a little more than 6 hours left.  We've done $15k in 2 hours in the past, so $10k in 6 hours IS POSSIBLE.  But for us to make it, we need just 15% of the people who have been WATCHING to come convert... or even a good portion of the people who lowered or cancelled pledges to come back to make this a reality.

If not, well you all definitely gave it a good effort and we really are thankful for where we are.  We're fans of YOU guys, however, so this is us trying to root for you to help us give you even more stuff!  We're geeks like that -- but at least we're geeks that love you guys!

Huge quick breaking news!

So as we said, "good enough" is never enough for us.  Especially with all the signed edition stuff and content!  But there was one name missing from the SIGNED AND NUMBERED Hardcover editions, and that was the cover artist, Dominic Glover.

He just HAPPILY agreed to add his signature to the Hardcover Signed and Numbered editions!

We will keep you updated on other signatures we secure for the other books, as we figure out the logistics due to the convention cancellations.  But rest assured, we want these to all be super awesome!

INCHES AWAY FROM REWARD SEVEN

We're really close (only a few hundred) to unlocking Reward Seven, and hopefully at this pace that puts the much-coveted Reward Tier Eight (Free Issue #2 first printing) within reach!  But it doesn't stop there.  It is entirely possible to go further, so let's go ahead and preview what Reward Tier Nine would be...

How about, not one, but TWO lenticular trading cards?!?  That's right, two exclusive lenticular animated trading cards to all people getting physically-shipping items.  The artwork on the cards would be the first one by Jamie Tyndall and the second by Dawn McTeigue and they are amazing...  Take a look:

We've never done two lenticular cards for a single push goal tier because they are incredibly expensive to produce, but we really think these are worth doing.   So fingers crossed... maybe these cool push goals can be reached as well.

And if we do... there's even COOLER stuff sitting beyond them! 

We've seen other campaigns with less stuff hit much higher goals in shorter time periods... The key lies with YOU.  Word of mouth is literally the single greatest marketing tool for Kickstarter.  So any help you give is absolutely, totally and completely appreciated. 

And no matter what, each one of you, regardless of pledge level, matters to us.  We are thankful for what you've already pledged, but we're rooting for you all to get more cool stuff for FREE!

Reward Six Unlocked AND the LAST Truly RICH Reward Offer!
about 4 years ago – Sat, Mar 14, 2020 at 08:07:17 PM

We're now in the final hours and you've unlocked the SIXTH Push Goal Reward of Super Stickers!  Everyone getting a PHYSICALLY SHIPPING PRODUCT (either through tier or through add ons) will receive TWO RANDOM massive vinyl stickers from the selection shown below!  These are perfect to place on a vehicle, a laptop, a monitor or even your ipad or tablet!  The stickers you receive will be completely random, and sorry we cannot accommodate requests.  Each one is valued at $5 each so this is a $10 value!

That also means we are only TWO TIERS AWAY from the free White Widow #2A first printing with cover by Jamie Tyndall!  This is SOLD OUT IN STORES nationwide... We do have enough for everyone getting a physical product. 

This is absolutely doable as we have 52 hours left and we did over $10k in less than 7 hours already!  BUT to make this even more possible, we're pulling out ONE LAST TRICK... 

SABINE RICH WHITE WIDOW METAL BONUS PRINT

This is our last bonus to help us reach even higher Push Goals and to thank all of our early adopters as well.  We are giving a comic-sized brushed aluminum METAL PRINT of White Widow by SABINE RICH for FREE to all backers who are on tiers 17 or higher!  We typically do these types of bonuses at much higher tiers, as this is a very expensive bonus to produce, but we truly want to thank you all and put this at the lowest entry point we possibly can.  This is NOT AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE directly, and it will NOT be an add on. The ONLY way to get this free print is by being on Tiers 17 thru 24!

We try not to put tier requirements for push goals, so consider this just an extra INCENTIVE to help you ALL achieve the highest goal you can while getting really awesome stuff!

Regardless of where we end up, once again, you guys continue to be amazing.  We truly appreciate you all.  Know that all of your pledges are being put to greater use for even bigger and better stuff.  Thank you all from the entire White Widow team.

Final Weekend, Final Push

We're in the home stretch.  There are over 700 people who have us bookmarked who have yet to convert.  That's the highest number we've ever had.  So if you're among those number or KNOW people in that group... NOW is the time to buy in.  Just a couple days left and then that's it.

Thanks to everyone we're only 2 and a LITTLE bit tiers away from reaching the #2 free first printing push goal!  That's about what we made in the first few hours on our first day so it CAN be done.  And we have even bigger stuff after if we blow past that.  So we really appreciate everyone's help in spreading the word.

As a little bonus teaser, here are a few of the CALENDAR pages to whet your appetites!

As you can hopefully see, we're really pulling out all the stops for the best products possible.  We never try to just do mediocre products.  So if you know some friends who haven't yet been bitten by the Widow bug... we think this is the project to get them in.

Thanks to all of the people in our Widow Nation!  We love you all!  Fingers crossed we can give you even more.
