The Killer Bees Comic is Happening Thanks to YOU!
over 7 years ago
– Wed, Jul 12, 2017 at 11:45:28 AM
As of last night, The Killer Bees 1 comic is FUNDED via Kickstarter! WOOHOO!
That means we have the funds necessary to finish production and print and distribute the book, and it's all thanks to YOU and your thoughtful, generous donations.
We have a little production and design work remaining on The Killer Bees 1, but we anticipate going to print NEXT WEEK.
You read that right. Next. Week.
We will have the books in hand by the end of July, at which time many rewards will begin shipping. However, any reward packages that include comics that need the signatures of B. Brian Blair and Jumping Jim Brunzell will be delayed as we send those books from Alabama to Tampa to Minnesota to Los Angeles and back again for signatures by the Bees and the creative team. Rest assured, we will handle this process with alacrity and have your prized autographs to you ASAP. We intend to hit our advertised delivery month of August for ALL REWARDS!
Look for surveys via Backerkit next week, as well. For our repeat backers, this will be a bit of a different experience than in previous campaigns, but Backerkit offers more options in surveys and backer information supply than the standard Kickstarter survey function. We think you'll love it!
We will keep you updated every step of the way in the production and fulfillment process.
Words are not enough to express our appreciation for your support!
Best regards,
Team Bees

A Slight Hiccup...
over 7 years ago
– Wed, Jul 05, 2017 at 12:04:19 PM
Our announcement of meeting our funding goal was a bit premature, as, only 2 hours later, a large pledge cancelled, sending us back below the line. Not to fear, we carried forward with our campaign, and we are again almost funded, only $19 away!
We are also near another landmark, as the next backer will be our 100th!
For the backer who pledges (or updates their pledge) to become backer 100 and/or put us back over the $4000 mark (minimum $20), we will provide one of the AUTOGRAPHED trading cards pictured below, added to your chosen rewards for FREE!
Let's get this done, so we can move on to Stretch Goals!
Thanks, everyone!
