Art Book Kickstarter Races to Successful Conclusion!

The Kickstarter has reached its goal! Yet there are a few hours left for you to take advantage of the opportunity to get high-quality art books from six terrific, exciting artist from the breadth of the comics world. They all just happen to be studio mates of lucky me! One of them is Ben Dewey, who drew the above image of the rest of the “first wave” artists to celebrate the reaching of out goal a few days back. Ben’s breathtaking technical skills and his subtle, delicious humor is on display in his wildly popular Tumblr Tragedy Series . And of course, in his own art book as well. Check out the rest of us on the Kickstarter site. And get in on some last-minute pledging offers, too! A mere $5 gets you digital copies of ALL SIX ART BOOKS!! If you have more to pledge, there are lots of levels and rewards to chose from , including a deluxe hardcover collection of all six books, and a sketch card from me!

And below, another celebratory piece, this by Aaron McConnell. Aaron’s work isn’t in our first wave, but by supporting our initial books, you can help to bring the rest of the equally excellent Periscope artists’ Art Books to print as the project continues. Thanks for all the support–!
