WHORE OF BABYLON | A Horror/Grindhouse Graphic Novel

And we're done!
over 7 years ago – Sat, Oct 29, 2016 at 07:09:17 AM

We are finished with 205 backers and $11,053 raised. Thank you, thank you, thank you all for your encouragement, support, feedback, shares, and free drinks over the last 30 days. This was a steep hill to climb and I wouldn't have made it without all of you.

While the graphic novel is still in process (victims to draw in, Devils to create, etc) there are still MANY rewards I will able to distribute and will start doing so before Christmas. Expect the surveys to be circulated soon. This will tell me how to get things to you and what your preferences are for prints, variant covers, etc.

I will keep you updated with sketches, art and other items through the Kickstarter, but if you haven't already, head over to Facebook and Like the Infernal Pact which is where I post most of my stuff.

Now, back to reality and some well-deserved rest.

Talk soon,

Joe

110% Reached!

Folks! We have reached the 110% point and that means.... STRETCH GOAL! Thanks to the last few backers who put us over the top!

All backers will now get a pinup gallery of some of the awesome art that's been collected for the book. Now it won't just live in the prints, it will be in the graphic novel too! 

Do we DARE go further? **Just $1,000 more to the next one! ** You know what they say... ain't no minute like the LAST minute! One hour to go!

One Day More
over 7 years ago – Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 07:43:03 AM

In just 24 Hours, the campaign ends. I'll admit there were moments that I didn't think we'd pull it off, but you all came through for us. Thank you so much. 

Let's take a victory lap, shall we?

• We started off strong, hitting our 100th backer and 40% funding by the first weekend.
• We hit 50% the first week and all backers received recipes for specialty cocktails inspired by the graphic novel (I must say that the Black Hen is delicious!)  
• When we hit 75%, all physical backers got high quality variant cover stickers added to their rewards. Just 'cause.  
• On Tuesday, we were 100% backed. The project is happening and we plan to start distributing rewards as soon as they are ready (so remember to fill out your surveys once you get them).  

We are only $25 away from reaching our next stretch goal of additional content for the book. If you want in on J.K. Woodward's original art (only $250 includes a graphic novel with the JK Woodward cover plus all stretch goals)  or if you want to BE in the book, it's not too late! 

Questions? Feedback? Send me a message or leave a comment, I always like to hear from you. 

Almost there,

While we have met our initial goal of $10,000, we are not slowing down and still have $298 to go until we meet our next stretch goal- additional content for the book!

There are still some great rewards left, but don't delay, on Saturday at 10AM EST, the campaign ends.   

Got Questions?  Leave a comment and I'll try to get them answered ASAP.

Almost there! - 3 Things YOU Can Do to Make This Project Happen
over 7 years ago – Wed, Oct 26, 2016 at 07:49:09 AM

We are almost there. Currently, we are 97% backed with a measly $208 separating us from making the Whore of Babylon a reality. 

We are so close and your help is needed to get us further.  So, what can you do? 

1. Social Media
Bring some visibility to the project. Did you share when you backed? It's never too late! Or, head on over to the Infernal Pact Facebook page and Like/Share some of the art posted, or follow Joseph Schmalke on Instagram or Twitter.

2. Sharing is Caring
Got a friend who follows horror AND comics and who you know will LOVE this graphic novel? Tell them about it and bring another into the fold. You might be giving them their next favorite thing!

3. Leave a Comment
Are you excited about the project? Did you like my previous books, either the Infernal Pact or Calamitous Black Devils? Then leave a Comment on the Kickstarter page and let the world know what you're thinking.  A positive review is ALWAYS welcome.  

Thank you everyone for believing in the project. Talk soon.

Best,
Joe
