KickTraq

With 8 days on the clock, the project isn't just funded, but has a couple hundred dollars of safety net!  Again, thank you all so much.  Remember, if we get another $800, it'll unlock a great six-page mini-comic, drawn by Dan Shive, for every... (Read More)

I went to bed last night relatively pleased, but I woke up OVER THE MOON. We made it! The Gospel of Carol is getting drawn, and it's getting drawn RIGHT. With ten days left on the clock, I guess now would be a good time to chat about stretch goals?... (Read More)

Today's update is short and sweet.  Carol got a bit of press, thanks to Fleen, bastion of webcomic bloggery.  Thanks, Gary! If you see Carol mentioned anywhere, or feel compelled to talk about the project on your own site, please let me know!... (Read More)

I first met Matt Lubchansky at NYCC a couple years ago via the kind introduction of one Jon Rosenberg¹ and have followed the various comics that he produces since. Much as I like the laugh-chuckles of Please Listen To Me, I find that his collaborations are even better and he’s got a doozy of a collaboration with Mallory Ortberg today. I wasn’t familiar with The Toast, where said collaboration is running today, so thanks to Hey Pais’s Sara McHenry for the pointer. (Read More)

Just another short for you folks. Keep spreading the gospel! (Read More)

I decided to draw another little Carol strip today. It takes place shortly after a Friday that, from Carol's point of view, wasn't particularly good.  And, by the by, we're stuck at 60% with 16 days on the clock, so keep spreading the word!  It's... (Read More)

60% Funded, 17 Days Remaining! That doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room to achieve our goal, so keep spreading the word! And now, I return to chatting about my library of research material. Today, I just wanted to briefly mention that Oscar Wilde, one... (Read More)

First, I wanted to say that I am GOBSMACKED.  Due to an incredibly generous backer yesterday, the project is now at 60%!  We've got 18 days on the clock, so let's keep the number growing! Second, I don't have much of an update for you today, but I... (Read More)

First things first: I was asked for more details about the $800 Cameo Reward, so I posted a bunch of info about it in the FAQ. That should clarify things! Basically, with that reward, you get to follow Carol around everywhere in the second half the... (Read More)

I'll get back to the Carol Library in a bit, but I thought you'd like to know a little bit more about how the comic will end up being structured. At this point in time, I intend to create the series as standard black and white, twenty-two page comic... (Read More)

We're up to 45%! Not too shabby, but with only 21 days left, we've gotta push that number higher, faster. Please tell everyone you know that might be interested! Shout it from the rooftops! Anyway, enough begging. For Part 3 of our exploration of my... (Read More)

Welcome to Week 2! Thanks for the all the support so far. 42% ain't nothin' to sneeze at! But it looks like we might be crawling to the finish line, so please spread the word to any interested parties. Now then, another look at my research library... (Read More)

I've never done as much research before any project as much as I have for Carol. I've already dumped a lot of my own money into building a reference library for the comic, looking into period fashion, locations, events, and stories. My primary focus... (Read More)

Morning, all! Today I thought I'd talk about the origins of Carol and where the idea for this project came from. Some of you may know that I draw a bunch of other comics online. One of them is called Lit Brick, and it's an on-going parody of all the... (Read More)

Good morning! Before today's update, I first have a request: if you're already a backer, and you think others might like Carol, please spread the word! We need to get that backer count up. On a related note, if you have a blog or are doing any form... (Read More)

Is it too early to talk about stretch goals?  NEVER!  I live in perpetual optimism.  In the event that this Kickstarter project reaches $8000, two six-page bonus comics will be digitally distributed to every single backer.  One of these will be... (Read More)

Wow, 37% of the goal in just 48 hours!  I'm rather gobsmacked, let me tell you.  Thanks for your support, and keep spreading the word! In my effort to post daily (yes, DAILY) updates to this project, I thought you'd like to see a weird Carol page I... (Read More)

Wow, you guys got the project 28% funded in just the first 24 hours!  Thank you! I've previously posted this material on my Tumblr in the past, but I thought you Kickstarter folks might be interested.  This is some developmental artwork I sketched... (Read More)

What do the prints look like?  Good question!  They look like this:  (Read More)
