A few days into our first kickstarter— and we are thrilled that our print run is funded. We’ve been making Coin-Ops since 2008 (with issue no. 1), it is the best feeling in the world to create and publish our own work. Thanks to everyone who has pledged so far — link below if you want to join in. ❤️

WET CEMENT is the 10th book in our stand-alone comic series, COIN-OP. It feels momentous to be self-publishing a series for so many years, and it’s why we decided to try Kickstarter for the first time. Day One: WET CEMENT is 600% funded! Can’t wait to mail ‘em out! #projectwelove #kickstartercomics
