12 hours until launch

Francesca, Joel, and I have been working really hard to get this campaign put together and the pieces are almost all together.

One last reveal before we launch and the next message you see from me will be about a LIVE CAMPAIGN!

Maybe the most important cover of them all is here...Francesca's!

Stake Presents: Jessamy #2 by Francesca Fantini

Hopefully we see you in the morning!

Less than 48 hours to go until we launch new campaign - Early Bird Special inside!

First 48 hour early bird special!

Let's keep it short an sweet on a Sunday night.

First a quick story: Fredy Bardales sent me a message a few days ago...it said "I have something for you."

I was like, "right on, Fredy's awesome, wonder what's up?" What was up is below...

If you back for a physical tier in first 48 hours of the campaign, you're going to get this cover with your pledge for free:

Fredy's follow up message was perfect..."she just cut someone >:))"

Yes...yes she did.  This free version will be the black and white style you see above, but I bet we make the color version available some other way?

Hopefully we see you Tuesday morning when we launch! 

A little more than 2 days until #2 launches, how about a little more art!?!

From Kelvin Chan, Jessamy after a kill!

over 2 years ago – Wed, Jul 28, 2021 at 09:32:20 AM

Jessamy is coming back with a vengeance!

One week from today around 10AM, we will be launching issue 2 of Stake Presents: Jessamy. We're offering issues of #1 for new readers to catch up as well, hence the Issues 1 and 2 in the title!

You can sign up now to be notified when we launch by clicking here or the image above!

Arists!

We have a phenomenal group of artists this time around:

Maria Khe

Ryan Pasibe   

Alan Quah   

Derrick Chew   

Jay Ferguson   

John Gallagher   

S Red Amparo     

Kelvin Chan   

Tina Valentino   

Casey J Wulner   

Alessandro Micelli


What a list! Did I go overboard? Maybe, but you all know, I LOVE GREAT ART! 

Most of these are complete, a few will be revealed during the campaign as the artists are busy doing covers for some smaller publishers like DC Comics...

What's new?

We'll be running some new incentives to help with promotion and also offering a few new items for stretch goals that we've never had before.

We will have 5 new vampires as well, I really doubt they're friendly, but I guess we'll find out...

Covers!

How about a little art preview? Just for you backers, before we share with world...

First one of our new vamps - Abella!

Abella by John Gallagher

And a little Jessamy...

Jessamy by S Red Amparo

I'll try to share a few more to get you salivating before we launch.


Don't forget to back early, last time we gave every physical backer a copy of Francesca's process cover for FREE for backing in the first 48 hours.

PSA: CGC will be offered, but turn around times are still insane so, we are not promising delivery on those books until mid 2022.
