Hey There!
Well I took a couple days off from the Kickstarter to fly to Oklahoma to attend the wedding of my first cousin once removed (I had to look that one up). It was a raucous affair with my sister and brother both flying in to party down. The three little Krisch kids, all grown up and goofing around on the dance floor - so much fun. I'm back home now in Culver City, and guess what? Weare funded!!! So y'all know what that means. Time for some Stretch Goals! Up first at 4K, let's supersize this mother.
I have a bunch of surprises in store for you over the next few days and weeks so stay tuned. Spoiler Alert: You're getting more free stuff.

Friends of the Turners
One of my favorite parts of running any Kickstarter campaign is when I get to highlight cool books from friends and fellow creators - books I'm supporting. I've got a couple for you today. First up is Fractured Shards from my buddy Shaun Keenan. This book was nominated for a Ringo Award this past year, and I voted for it - cause its amazing!
In a dystopian future, the world is separated into the glittering paradise of the LIGHTS and the slums of the DISTRICT. Detective Sebastian Vetro works on the most horrific of cases between both worlds as an enforcement officer. When a horrific crime occurs, sometimes that moment can fracture opening up glimpses into the event.
Follow troubled Detective Sebastian Vetro on this crazy cyberpunk ride as he uses these fractures that he experiences to solve crimes within the Lights and District.
Will he be able to control this power he seems to have obtained or will it destroy him?
Collecting The Crimebusters #1-5 for 175+ pages of adventure in the classic Scooby-Doo tradition!
"When supernatural events and weird spirits begin haunting the campus of Curtiss Tech, it's up to student sleuths Chuck Chandler and Trixie Trouble to solve the mysteries... before somebody dies!
The Crimebusters Volume 1 collects issues #1-5 of the hit ongoing indie comic series The Crimebusters in one softcover trade edition, presenting five extra-long creepy stories of ghoulish delight in full color for the first time!"
Crime Busters is from my friend Scott Harris and this gem has only 3 days left on Kickstarter and needs a little help crossing that finish line. Scott's at around 75% so pick up a copy and help him see his passion project come to life.

Hey There-
Thank you so much for backing our little inappropriate, over-the-top, family romp Turner Family Terrors. It was your support during our last campaign for Issue #2 that helped fund art production for our current issue #3 of the series.
Here's our stunning 'Art Nouveau' Variant Cover from Kyle Roberts, colored by Wes Hartman.
We like to have fun with our campaigns (almost as much as we like to give away free stuff), so in honor of this past Friday the 13th we unlocked a 10 spot of bonus digital indie comics for any backer at any tier (even $1).
This bonus bundle expires soon, so make sure to give our campaign a look today and check out what kind of supernatural shenanigans the Turner's have in store during their latest misadventure.
Our Early Bird Specials expire today, so don't miss out.
We are thrilled to be back on Kickstarter with TurnerFamilyTerrors Issue #3: 'The Professor' - an adrenaline-fueled 28 page, part black & white, part technicolor, horror show!
Sparks fly in issue 3 as heroine Laura Turner reunites with her estranged father, Professor Ezra Brahms, world-famous monster hunter, sociopath, and all around lousy Dad.
Issue 3 introduces just a touch of sex appeal to the series as our mysterious Russian villainess Diva seduces a hapless Bob Turner.
And our rotating series of origin stories continue. This time around we explore the sinister background of our Villains and get a glimpse as to why they are acting like such jerk-wads.
We have three amazing covers including our 'Cryptid' Cover A by Easton Hawk (image up top), as well as our 'Art Nouveau' Variant by Kyle Robert and Wes Hartman and our Kickstarter Exclusive 'Cthulhu Attacks' Variant by Carlos Trigo.
