Spread the word... SIGNED confirmations

Quick update on something we announced earlier.
For the Hardcover Signed and Numbered editions of the White Widow Volume One Graphic Novel - Along Came a Widow, we have confirmed that pretty much the entire current team will provide their signatures. That means:
If you have pledged for these limited editions (250 total) you don't have to do anything. This will be for them all.
The way this works, we are printing on special paper the signature pages in Orlando with the numbered sequence and they will be signed by Benny and Jenna. They will then be carefully packed and shipped to Jamie in St. Louis. He will sign the pages and repack and ship to James Brown in Massachusetts who will again sign and repack. They then will ship ALL the way to Indonesia to be signed by Iwan, before being repacked and shipped to our factory in China! There they will be trimmed and sewn into the fronts of the final books during assembly!
Again, this wasn't something we had to do... it was something we felt was WORTH doing to thank you all.
For our other Signed and Numbered slipcase books we are working to find out who we can gather signatures from and we will announce those as well. Unfortunately we had planned to meet up with many of our artists at some of the conventions that have been announced as cancelled. But we are still planning to get as many as we can. We want these to be truly fun and unique collectibles!
Last Add-On Offer and Stretch Goal #4 Unlocked

Well we have LESS THAN A WEEK to go and you've done it once again, and unlocked #4 Stretch goal, as you may have seen, and we're already halfway to #5! But many people are asking us to do something to help push things a little further. So we put our heads together and decided to make a last week ADD-ON SPECIAL that's really amazing!
GOLDEN METAL WHITE WIDOW #1 - by Tim Vigil and Sanju
This is a GOLDEN METAL COVER of White Widow #1 (first printing) with artwork by none other than TIM VIGIL and colors by SANJU. This is a real, readable, 48 page comic with a brushed golden aluminum cover. We're offering this limited edition comic for only $100 each (golden metals are more expensive to produce) but we are limiting this to only two per backer. Quantities will be determined by the campaign and it is only available in this Kickstarter.
To get this, simply add $100 for one copy or $200 for two copies to your existing pledge, and you can then select the comics in Backer Kit when the time comes. We WILL ALSO allow CGC Yellow Label (no guaranteed grades) by adding $40 each. The CGC versions will be signed by Jamie and Benny.
We know many of you want to reach at least the $50k Stretch Goal and get the first printing of White Widow #2 for free... so we've added this to help us get there. We're close so let's cross that threshold.
As always, we depend on YOUR help in spreading the word. Regardless, we continue to thank you ALL for your support. You guys are amazing and we owe everything to you!
White Widow Signed and Numbered Surprises and More Rewards!

More Signed to the Numbered!
We have been SO thankful to the amazing outpouring of support from you guys on this campaign, and so we decided that since you are all going above and beyond, that WE will try to as well. So for the Signed and Numbered editions, which previously only had creators Jamie Tyndall and Benny Powell, we've decided to up our game! Over the next couple months, we will be taking the signature pages that will be sewn into the books with us to relevant conventions to grab as many signatures as we can for each of these books!!! That may include models, artists, the editor, colorists, painters, etc! Basically, we've begun reaching out to our family of artists to get them involved as a way to say THANK YOU and really make these already-awesome signed editions EVEN BETTER!
More Rewards Revealed!
We are fast approaching our third Push Goal, which is the first printing of #1, so we wanted to reveal the next batch of rewards all the way to the $50k goal! We typically reach this mark, so we are hoping this is not out of reach because we REALLY want you to get all of these:
That's right... you could receive TWO FIRST PRINTINGS Main Covers (sold out in stores everywhere!) if we reach the $50k tier! That's absolutely doable. Plus you'll be almost doubling the coloring book, and adding nearly 15% more content to the graphic novels... digital wallpapers for your desktop AND phones... and two stickers! The total value for these push goals is over $65 and counting!
So please, help us by continuing to spread the word. If you have friends who have been sitting on the fence, we believe THIS is the collection to get them on board as fans. As you know, we take the funds we receive and reinvest in more content, more covers, more books, and better quality. For instance, did you know that we've upgraded our already high-quality comic covers to be twice as thick and our interior pages 50% thicker? This has resulted in higher grades and better shipping with fewer damages! That was a direct result of us being able to reinvest from the profits of past Kickstarters! I Make Boys Cry as well came from your efforts. In short, our growth is tied to your support. We always want you to know that when you invest in us, we absolutely take that responsibility to heart and strive to keep bringing you a better product each and every time!
Thank you as always!
White Widow Volume 1 - Add On Prices
about 4 years ago
– Fri, Feb 28, 2020 at 05:26:31 PM
So many people have been asking how to add on a la carte the items they want to various tiers. Also some people want multiples. Obviously you could wait until the campaign ends and add these items in backer kit, however that wouldn't help to unlock the push goals we have in store! So to help clear this up we've added the following information to the campaign and here for you to refer to it:
Two things to note...
1) There's no easy way for us to calculate what the additional weight will add to shipping (if anything) until after the campaign ends and we can reconcile in Backer Kit. So these prices do NOT include shipping for the physical products.
2) Please do NOT attempt to add on for the Behind the Scenes hardcover book. As stated here and elsewhere it is only available as a digital book and in the SLIPCASE EDITIONS! That is the bonus for buying the slipcase and it makes the physical version an extremely limited collectible.
Thanks again for all your amazing support. We have a lot in store and this really does help us bring more amazing things to you. Please remember that new projects are funded by your support, so the more you help us spread the word, the more we are able to bring you. Thanks as always!
YOU DID IT! And Now For Push Goals!

Well you guys certainly outdid yourselves. The team launched this and half of us went off to C2E2 (where you can visit Jamie and crew as well as many of our cover artists!) and the other team passed out to get some much needed sleep. So we are a LITTLE late in cheering and saying THANKS for hitting our goal... but now we get to ALSO reveal our PUSH GOALS. Which, I hope you will all agree are pretty dang awesome already.
That's right in the first three push goals alone... you get your name inside the book... and next, a downloadable AND printable version of the Coloring Book... and then a FREE COPY OF WHITE WIDOW #1 FIRST PRINTING!
Not bad, eh?
Just imagine what we have in store for the higher tiers!
Next update, we'll explain further how to add on to your tiers to get multiple things. Obviously you can wait to do that in backer kit, but adding on here helps unlock more push goals!
