I’ve started a fundraising campaign to get Zegas Number Two<\/strong> printed! The place is RocketHub, and I’m excited to get the ball rolling. I even made a cool video clip\/animation for it.<\/p>\n

Check out the video and preview art for Zegas Number Two<\/strong> over here at RocketHub!<\/a><\/p>\n

The funding covers the printing cost, basically. The artwork itself is nearly done, so what you’re paying for is the comic itself (call it a pre-order). I’m also offering some prints, t-shirts, and original art in case you wanna donate a little bit more. <\/p>\n

Since I kept the print run to the first Zegas<\/strong> issue really, really small, I mostly promoted it locally while trying to hit up as many comics shops across the country as I could (having it available through Etsy<\/a> helped a lot, too). I don’t go through a distributor; I package & ship it all myself. Zegas<\/strong> was and IS print only, so no digital distribution for me, either (the comic works better that way). Therefore, its success relies on a grassroots, word-of-mouth approach. I’m trying to make this self publishing thing happen so Zegas<\/strong> could exist<\/em>. No matter what, it’s still gotta go up against every other book, small press or not, so this is paying for its fighting chance.<\/p>\n

Spread the word! Even if you can’t donate<\/a> at this moment, I’d appreciate the word getting out any way possible! <\/p>\n

Z E G A S Number Two<\/strong>… let’s make this happen, friends.<\/p>\n
