Death Sentence Liberty 1 to 6 - 476 pages of comics

Print update - last call for comics!
about 3 years ago – Fri, Feb 10, 2023 at 04:18:20 AM

Ok, two more deliveries of books have arrived in the USA and UK. We're now just waiting on the full run of Death Sentence 6 comics, and when they arrive at the warehouse we can start sending everything out together. Issue 6 looks really beautiful in print, I'm chuffed with how it feels and looks.

It seems like the UK consignment will arrive before the USA, about two weeks earlier, in which case we will fulfil all the UK orders first. 

Sorry for the wait, but things are moving. Meanwhile I'm busy finishing commissions and working on new Death Sentence titles.

Looking forward to the next campaigns,  the plan is to concentrate on books rather than comics. That means I'm not planning to print any more Death Sentence comics at all.  Once this current campaign (DS Liberty 6) is fulfilled, we'll have stock of everything in the USA and UK warehouse. But many comics will be really low numbers and won't be reprinted. I'm looking at figures of 27, 18, 6 for different issues after this campaign is fulfilled. One issue will have 200+ issues in stock, but it you want a complete run it's dictated by the issues with lowest stock number. So once these have all been sold, at cons and online, that'll be it for Death Sentence comics. The plan is to only make new graphic novels and keep all the graphic novels in print, moving forward.

I've been keeping individual Death Sentence comics in stock for ten years, and it wasn't really for business reasons. I just love comics! Personally I adore making, owning and reading floppy comics, but it seems readers increasingly want longer complete stories in book form. So that's what we'll do. 

So, if you are missing any back issues of comics, or want a complete run of comics, now is a good time to get an order in. Do it now and these will ship with your Kickstarter order.

More soon

Cheers

Hope you can all stop working and enjoy some chilled time with your family and friends. 

I’m still beavering away on the final bits of issue 6, so I’m not going to send it out this week. I need to put it in a drawer for a few days and then reread it with fresh eyes to check it’s all working as it should, before I sign off on it. 

I’ve been working hard on it but we’ve ALL been ill at the same time and when our daughters off school too it’s just impossible to work as normal - and I don’t want to rush this issue out with a typo or a mistake in it because my head’s still fuzzy from this virus.

While I’ve been ill I’ve been doing a lot of prep work with the mailing lists and the warehouses to get everything ready to send out the printed rewards. As I was too ill to draw/colour for a few of days it seemed the best use of time, something I could do largely from bed. 

Looking forward - I’ll release the digital copy of 6 to you all later this month, then do the printed rewards next month, and then spend a couple more weeks finishing off all the special artwork commissions for backers in February. 

Then I’ll be ready to start showing you the next Death Sentence story, which is something very special indeed. 

So, there’ll be some cool links coming your way at the end of this month. Until then, have an awesome Xmas holiday! 

Cheers
