The writer said he has the books in his garage. This was a very early KS and I suspect he underestimate shipping costs and labor by a lot This one really annoyed me. Walter did a really nice sketch for me as part of this. Hoveke never sent it or my copy of the comic. I got a pdf of the book. He’s never replied to any emails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Matthew Dow Smith, comic artist who was writing a young adult novel. I left a comment the other day that the girl I was planning on reading this with is now in college, 8 years or so overdue. He recently said that it is close to done. I am supposed to get some art fromthe book but it has been forever and is very disappointing. I see Darryl Banks mentioned earlier; he was always top notch in delivering commissions on time so I would expect that one works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that he ran out of money to mail the books and pay the income taxes. That was pretty common in the early days of Kickstarter. The artist, Ben Risbeck, offered to send me a copy, but I declined since it would be unfair to everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Jim Lawson (from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) has done a few and all funded projects go out in a timely fashion. He's a great human being and I've never been let down by his Kickstarter projects. He's got another one active right now: Jim Lawson's current Kickstarter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_K Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 My buddy Steve Mannion has just started his 6th Kickstarter project. I've backed all of them. He's gotten them done in good time. That includes printing, commissions and mailing. The art for his comic is pretty much done before he launches. He keeps all the backers updated and keeps things light.
