    Hello readers!

    Our Kickstarter is live! Not only is it live, but it’s only been up for 48 hours and already our amazing fans have pledged more than half of our target! Thank you so much to everyone, this is so exciting it asplodes my brain.

    The project is to make Exocomics collected volumes 1 & 2, of 100 comics each, plus loads of extra art and content. Go see the project page for all the details: cool exclusive stuff is available for backers!

    Further awesome news: We are super lucky to be able to work with award-winning, perfectionist print expert Kyra from Threaded Magazine! The books are gonna be so awesome, you don’t even know.

    Finally, some more awesome news: if the project is successful, I will resign my job and do Exocomics full time! If that happens, I want to release comics more frequently, and work on some new ideas I have for projects, both with Exocomics and totally new stuff.

    Jump on twitter or facebook, or the kickstarter project page to keep up with project developments. Thanks everyone!

    Li

    Well... i know 48 hours may not be very relevant, statisticaly speaking, but you got 1/3 of your goal on the first day, which is fantastic. Then 1/6 was added on the second day, which is still awesome. But i hope this trend does not continue because

    1/3 + 1/6 + 1/12 + 1/24 + ... + 1/(3*2^n) = 2/3... 66%!

    WHY DO YOU HATES US, MATH?

    @lou,
    the comic is on the kickstarter page!
    I am disappoint at your sense of entitlement.

    Good luck on your kickstarter, already pledged :)
    Wouldn't recommend quitting your job though, a stable income provides security. Unless you REALLY hate your job :p

    Question: Can I get the books even if I don't pledge? I want to buy them, but the only way on the pledge thing that I could get them is if I give my whole month's salary (I am a poor college student!).

    @vikram: You, sir, are a carcass fit for hounds. Take your foolish disdain elsewhere; Li's art is magical.
