Happy Friday my Wolf Pack!
For this update, I just wanted to give many thanks to my friend, Tyler James, who graciously provided an amazing Foreword for Snow Paw Volume 1. For those of you who don't know Tyler, he is the Publisher of ComixTribe as well as the Founder of ComixLaunch. A training program for comic creator to learn how to run successful crowdfunding campaigns and more. As you may or may not know my first Kickstarter campaign failed, so I started doing freelance work to pay for the first two issues of Night Wolf. However, that process took to long and I didn't really consider going back to Kickstarter until I discovered Tyler's ComixLaunch course in December of 2018.
Since then we have become friends and I even consider him a big brother when it comes to the comic book industry and look up to him with the utmost respect. When he accepted writing the foreword for Snow Paw, was so very excited and thankful. But when I read what he wrote it brought me to tears. I can't thank him enough for all he's done for me in my comic book career. I haven't had the pleasure to meet him in person yet, but when we finally do, I own him a big hug and many beers. Here is a snippet from Tyler's foreword.
"There’s nothing better as a reader than being able to sit back, trust the storytellers, and go along for a ride worth taking.
Snow Paw Volume 1 represents something special: a creator expanding his creative vision with a fresh spinoff that never loses sight of what made the original a hit. With the addition of Cirray’s story told for the first time in these pages, Rob’s Lone Wolf Comics universe is now bigger, richer, and more inviting than ever.
And that’s definitely something worth howling about!"
Tyler also has a Kickstarter live for three more day, so I highly recommend you check out before time runs out.
Sinners & sharks collide in the definitive edition of Ryan K Lindsay & Sami Kivelä’s steamy surf noir graphic novel for mature readers.
CHUM is a surf noir crime tale for mature readers set on a sun-bleached island where money, drugs, and desire pull everyone toward the same inevitable bloody tide.
Summer Stanwyck is trapped.
She tends bar on the island she grew up on, the local cop is about to become her ex-husband, and she’s wasting time screwing the local reefer kingpin.
But when a bag full of cash and drugs appears, she sees a way out... and anyone who gets in her way is shark bait.

Happy Werewolf Wednesday my Wolf Pack!
Well, you've done it again! You've clawed down two more stretch goals! The four stretch goal unlocked a new four page short story for chapter 3 added to the physical books by returning guest writer, Travis Gibb, writer of Coins of Judas, Band of Bards. His short story is a prequel to his Night Wolf volumes 1 and 2 short stories featuring how Tartarus and Lucas Ferrara first met. Here are sneak peeks at one of the pages illustrated by Evan Scale and colored by Bruna Costa!
The fifth stretch is a book enhancement for the hard cover adding a Gold-edge to pages. This process is called gilt-edging and is a premium feature applying actual gold leaf to the page edges for luxury, aesthetic appeal, and protection against dust and moisture. This technique adds a lovely reflective, metallic finish. The image below isn't the actual book but is what the process looks like once applied to the books.

LotR meets GoT with an anime twist as small‑town kids venture out to seek fortune, serve the realm, and chase adventure.
Clariette longs for a life of adventure and action, far different from her mundane existence as a fish vendor with her family. The story follows a group of young, aspiring adventurers—Clariette (a fighter), Ariarra (a cleric), and Jolfe (a wizard apprentice)—who seek to make a name for themselves in a world filled with war, monsters, and complex, dangerous quests.
The main group includes Clariette, who acts as the leader with a "heart of gold," and her friends who take on, or get forced into, high-stakes situations. The series is inspired by tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, MMOs, and Game of Thrones, intense, often unpredictable consequences for the characters' actions.

The Second-to-Last Chapter of the YI SOON SHIN Trilogy
Yi Soon Shin (1545–1598) was a Korean Admiral who fought against invading Japanese samurai during a seven-year conflict known as the Imjin War (1592–1598). And here’s what makes his story unbelievable--he was never defeated in battle! Not once. Outnumbered. Outgunned. Up against one of the most powerful and feared military forces in Asia—and he still won. 23 consecutive victories. He remains one of the only military commanders in world history to achieve that.

Together we are offering this exclusive 5x7" print illustrated by Evan Scale, to anyone who backs both SNOW PAW and BLAZING BLADE OF FRANKENSTEIN campaigns!

Sword & sorcery meets gothic horror, with Mary Shelley's monster cast as a wandering barbarian fighting for the fate of a savage land
BLAZING BLADE OF FRANKENSTEIN is an episodic graphic novel that casts Mary Shelley's monster as a wandering barbarian fighting for the fate of a savage land.
It's a direct sequel to FRANKENSTEIN, picking up immediately after the events of Mary Shelley's novel. This is the monster as Shelley wrote him: intelligent and sensitive, with super-human speed and strength. No Boris Karloff grunting and shambling here...
But don't worry! You don't need to have read the novel first--we provide a recap--but if you're a fan, there are plenty of nods to the source material.
