Are there any plans in the future for a full color release? Also, I want to say that I enjoy your livestreams.

Thank you sir! As of yet there are no plans for full color, but nothing's off the table. Personally I like the black and white noir aesthetic, it fits both the style and genre. I tend to think color can actually detract from the art. BUT perhaps in the future I will consider.
 
Sven and I are talking on my podcast in 30 minutes from now.

The beginning of this stream will be an interview with Sven Stoffels. Sven is an artist and animator responsible for the Hila Klein IDF clip, and he has recently launched a Kickstarter for his comic book, Butch Killigan: Volume 2.

Stream today at Noon EDT / 6pm CEST.

The stream was awesome, pledged for a physical copy of 2 & 1. Keep making great work, Sven!
Exactly! Was going to do a token support with a digital like last time but the stream convinced me to go to full physical for both v 1&2.

And now I know for the euros feel getting shipping raped by merch sales lol
 
>made by a Dutch

No, those are worse than Jews. They created economics. I’m going to do everything in my power to destroy this (absolutely nothing).
 
Been working on my Pitch after talking to Josh the other day. What do you guys think:
First off, let me say I really enjoy your animation stuff and will be looking into these comics further.

I'd omit the stuff in red as it is somewhat repetitive and too provides too much information about the plot. Cliffhangery stuff gets people interested and I feel you might be providing too much plot info.

I'd rewrite the stuff I put green parenthesis around.

"The only drug still unregulated is the same mysterious substance he uncovered in Volume 1."
I'd omit or rewrite it to be something like:
"Strangely, the only drug still unregulated is the same mysterious substance he previously uncovered(discovered?)."

"Think Demoliton Man meets Jacob's Ladder meets They live, as if directed by Paul Verhoeven"
I think this would be better earlier in the initial pitch. I'd rewrite it as well to be something like:
"Think the action of Demolition Man meets the psychological thrill of Jacob's Ladder with the social commentary of They Live, all directed by Paul Verhoeven." or something.

Do know that my accolades in writing include an English 101 and 102 class in community college. That being said, you can probably ignore all of this.

"Unregulated" isn't the word you want - that sounds like you want "not permitted" but "unregulated" means there's no limits, no controls, nothing. "Strangely, the only controlled substance is the mysterious one he found earlier."

The “Think…” is a little on the nose and I’d think you’d be better describing it as a surreal action adventure in which our hero grapples with a demented world.

Throw it into ChatGPT and get some permutations until you like it. It sounds too much like an elevator pitch.


PS: Fuck you, Dutchman.
 
Out of curiosity, what made you think of Jacob's Ladder in particular as a point of comparison?
 
FELLAZ!
Word of mouth and personal sharing is what helps this campaign the most, according to my analytics! If you’ve already backed Butch Killigan Volume 2, thank you! Every share with a friend or fellow indie comic fan makes a huge difference!
Also I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for possible "comic book'ey" streams I could book appearances on? If you have any ins that'd be appreciated!
