Right now there’s a tie in the “what should we do next” poll (in the linked newsletter). We’d love some more feedback before the poll closes next week. If nothing else someone please break the tie! (Their is a section for paid subscribers but most of the post is free)

This newsletter has a poll for the next project you’d like to see from Acorn Comics (after we finish the current arcs of Heroes & Zeros and The Olympian). Poll will be open for a week and I may put up a partial script or a super rough thumbnail of the winner in next month’s newsletter. So go vote!

In this month’s newsletter: Mandel Fan Fest; Overlapping Campaigns; Hints of the Future; A Rising Tide; Paul’s Favorite Pages substack.com/@acorncomics...

Backing us means getting campaign-exclusive bonuses while discovering a bold story and striking visuals, all packed with social themes and reality-bending discussions. Wow! Check us out on Kickstarter. #comicbook

I just got my stickers for The Olympian’s campaign and they look amazing! I tried a new supplier (a friend of mine works there) and they were fast, professional, and less expensive than the other companies I looked into. www.onlinelabels.com/custom-stick...

Tonight! @findingdeefish.bsky.social and I will join @blakesbuzz.bsky.social to talk about why YOU should go back The Olympian - other than keeping Asterion happy.

Be sure to check out the awesome OLYMPIAN Kickstarter! Paul Eza and I are putting our all into making an epic adventure for you all to enjoy! Here's a SNEAK PEEK of some of what's to come at olympiancomic.com

To wield the Talisman of Olympus, Vasilis Meyer must prove that he is worthy. #comics #indiecomics #kickstarter #noAI youtu.be/29MxqA4mR6I?...

I had the privilege to be a guest on the latest episode of Freshly Pressed from @comix.one talking about - you guessed it - The Olympian! Check it out, subscribe, and then go back the campaign! youtu.be/dleF5yjxIkQ?...

One of the things I love about the work @findingdeefish.bsky.social has done on The Olympian is her ability to make the quiet and dramatic panels equally interesting. Here are two of my favorites. If you love these as much as I do, go back the campaign! 🔗⬇️

I had to scramble a bit for stretch goals - honestly, I thought I’d have more time to figure that out but you all had other ideas 😂 So here it is! When we reach $1500 in total funding, all physical backers will receive free Talisman of Olympus and Olympian logo stickers!

T-minus two hours…

Just six hours from now! Check out the trailer to get hyped, then come join us on the livestream! youtu.be/YBIEKFvOn2c?...

24 hours from now, @findingdeefish.bsky.social and I will be on the @popculturesquad.bsky.social with @bobharrison.bsky.social to talk all things Olympian! Come join us, ask some questions, and find out why you should come back us on Kickstarter! www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5K4...
