Hello ThoughtScape folks!
JUST FOUR DAYS REMAIN on the ThoughtScape Comics Kickstarter, and with just over $5k left to raise, we really need your help to hit our goal and get our series on track for 2023. If you haven’t already, please consider backing today. We’ve got loads of great rewards in addition to THREE JAM-PACKED WITH KILLER SCI-FI ISSUES of ThoughtScape Comics. Head to ThoughtScape2023.com for all the details, and give the Add-On rewards menu a real close look after you select your initial pledge level.
Backing ThoughtScape at a physical comics reward level, or pledging for one of the remaining ThoughtScape + Lifeformed Mega-Pack rewards, which includes all the TSC comics plus TWO 200-page graphic novels, will take us furthest in terms of achieving our goal.
AND, including an add-on reward for a pack of posters or an original art commission from Dave Law, Karl Slominski, or Jeremy Brooks in your pledge will also give us a much needed super boost, and get you a nice piece of art to hang on your wall.
Thanks so much for your support! Time is short, but I have no doubt that with your help, we can pull it off. If you do pledge today, be sure to share a tweet tag me: @mattmlpdx! Let’s go!!!
The final week on the campaign trail…
Interviews!
Check out the latest ep of the ThoughtScape Comics podcast for my chat with artist Jeremy Brooks (as usual you can find it on your podcast app of choice or listen directly below).
The final interview on the podcast (for now anyway), with artist Karl Slominski, is coming your way in a couple days.
We’ve also got some text-style Q&As up now on the TSC website, including…
The best part of this project for me in terms of creating the comic itself is working with such incredibly talented folks. Please be sure to check these Q&As out and follow and support all my amazing collaborators on social media. You can find links in the Q&As or on the TSC homepage.
Livestream!
I’ll be joining Blake’s Buzz LIVE on FRIDAY evening to talk ThoughtScape and comics in general and whatever else comes up. Set a reminder now so you can tune in!
Art!
Dig these super fun pieces Desolina Fletcher and Dave Law just dropped in support of the campaign!
Last thing: in the nice, unexpected surprises category, earlier this week I came across this review of Lifeformed that I missed a couple years back.
It’s always great to stumble upon a mention of Cleo and company, and of course it doesn’t hurt when the review says nice things like “It is head and shoulders above the typical ‘alien invasion’ story, simply because every scene and situation is tightly written and emotionally connected” or “Cleo’s expressions and body language are priceless,” credit to amazing artist Cassie Anderson, of course, or “it is touching, cosmic, timeless.” Anyway, it was a real treat to read all this and it reminded me just how much I would love to get back to these characters before too much more time passes. Here’s hoping… Hey, did I mention that in the meantime YOU can order the Lifeformed books as part of your pledge on the ThoughtScape Kickstarter? Hahahahaha… anyway, support TSC, and here’s to a sci-fi packed 2023!
Thanks!
Matt
