Hi there, wonderful backers!
We've had a great launch week so far and it hasn't even been a full week that we're live. We're almost 40% funded with 12 days left to go! I figured now would be a great time to start talking stretch goals and milestone goals.
We've still got a ways to go to get funded and this seems like the kind of campaign that will come down to the last few days, but we'll get there when we do and if we can get to $4000, a bonus sticker for all physical backers will be unlocked.
What's the sticker, you ask? Why, it's this one, of course!
As for milestones, we're in for a rare treat...
Yes, that's right, I'll be releasing my old art from 2015 in digital form for all backers to see. Why is this so special? I'm not particularly embarrassed by my old art because I didn't know what I was doing at the time, but you'll get to understand why I had to redraw the story entirely and rewrite some parts to smooth out some wrinkles.
The original version was pretty rough around the edges and in desperate need of polishing and it'll be fun to compare both versions and see what I've changed.
That's it for now. I'll still keep tooting the horn and fluting the flute to spread the word about Buddy and Friend. If you can also help spread the word, that'd be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for your support and have a great weekend!

But wait! There's more! Here's some other cool campaigns to check out as well!
The Fart Bomb: an absurd comedy about a young farting master
Once David learned he could weaponize his farts, his family would never be safe in this hilarious comedy meant for both kids and adults
Like most kids, David was often annoyed by his family...until he found a way to get back at them. Training his butt and his body to the peak of human performance, David learned how to unleash THE FART BOMB! A stinky weapon meant to torture his parents and siblings. But when news of his fart bomb starts to spread in school, David finds himself in a bit of a stink.
The Fart Bomb is a 20-page all-ages comedy that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults. Its humor is silly and ridiculous in the stinkiest ways possible.

UnSEEN/UnHEARD: Disability & Neurodivergence Comic Anthology
A 64-page comic anthology amplifying underrepresented voices in the disability and neurodivergent communities.
From the editors that brought you Scott Snyder Presents Tales from the Cloakroom vol. 1 and the Ringo-nominated creator of Etheres comes unSEEN/unHEARD: Disability & Neurodivergence, a 64-page anthology that collects 12 new slice of life, romance, sci-fi, fantasy, and horror short comics about dealing with disabilities or being neurodivergent.
From the team:
"It was vital to us that stories about neurodivergent people and those with disabilities be told by people with those conditions. Similarly, creators with these conditions often find it difficult to make comics consistently, from financial barriers to constant interruptions to the creative process because their energy must go to simply...existing. As such, we wanted to produce this anthology to give those who might not usually get to tell their stories a platform to do so.
The anthology covers a wide spectrum of conditions: AuDHD, Ankylosing Spondilitis, Traumatic Brain Injury, Dyslexia, Spinal Cord Injury, Misophonia associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Tourette Syndrome, Blindness, Fibromyalgia, CPTSD, and more.
Furthermore, intersectionality and representation of other marginalized communities is a pillar of Unseen Alchemy Publishing. As such, expect to see 2SLGBTQIA+ and BIPOC representation in our stories."
