Today’s strip is by Darrin Stephens, who does a pretty great comic called Space Slugs and a 2nd also great comic called Savage Slug! Thanks Darrin!
The Kickstarter is going great, by the way! We’re past our original goal of $2100, which means the project is fully funded. Of course, the more money we raise the more books we can print. I had promised that for every $400 we generated over the initial goal I’d do a special 3 page comic for the book featuring one of the Modest Medusa supporting characters. So far we have enough money for two of these comics (one featuring the Mermaids, the other with Charles) and we’re only about $300 away from unlocking a Chainsaw Unicorn story! I’m also hoping we’ll get enough money to do a fourth story about Medusa’s snakes! Check out the details of the Kickstarter, including all the cool stuff you can get, here!
aaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnddddddd that is why you need to keep a box in your room…
Dunno why but totally reminds me of Garfield XD
well thats cause there’s nothing to do in the enchanted wood on a monday
Pretty sure that’s because there was a Garfield comic strip like this, Emery. ^^;
Looks like By the time i have the money to help the kickstart you’ll be doing bonus strips about the paramedics who took charles away. hehe
I know. I think the 4th story, the one about the snakes, will be the last one.
Well if people keep getting you over youll have to come up with more and more ideas. of course there could be any number of characters you might introduce between now and the books release. so if you write in “Ricky the Drunk Chimera” then that might be your next 3 page just dont tell the fans what special bonus comics are in store after medusas snakes comics.
I could do that, but I’m thinking 4 bonus comics is probably enough. I don’t want to offer SO MUCH bonus stuff that fans of the comic who don’t want to buy the book feel like they have to to get the full story. 12 extra pages (on top of the 10 page story that I’m already doing, 2-4 pages of illustrated interview and 2 page photo gallery) seem like enough.
Jake, you should probably edit the text of the kickstarter to make it clear that the Medusa’s snakes 3-pager is the last extra 3-pager. Currently the kickstarter text says one 3-pager for each $400 over $2100, not one 3-pager for each $400 up to $3700.
Good point. Thanks!
hey Jake thanks for letting me play in your world!
Emery – Garfield? Oh no. Now you’ve set up this strip for “Medusa without Medusa.” What have you done? XD
Mwahaha 😀
Always protect you chocolates. I have learned that people will steal unprotected chocolates no matter who they belong to.
I’ll give some money, just need to get paid first
So tell us Jake about the sketch you mentioned on the title page.
The sketch I mentioned?
“I’ll also do a little Medusa sketch on the title page! You’ll also receive the previously mentioned reward”
Oh, right. What to tell. I’ll draw a nice little Medusa sketch in each book. It might not actually be on the title page though, since I haven’t designed the title page yet and I’m not sure how much room it’ll have, but it’ll be cute and totally worthwhile.
So each book will be unique?
Sure, in that each one will have a unique, hand drawn sketch.
i love this comic,and by the kick starter you can tell others do too,i mean 4 grand and it still has awhile to go,wowza 🙂 (id love to donate but im broke with a baby on the way) but yeah,you rock,i cant wait til the arc finishes, im curious 🙂
Baby on the way is a good reason to keep your money in your pocket (broke is also a good reason).
4000 bucks and it still isn’t the second yet.
4th panel: “OM NOM NOM”
Btw, what does the ‘ink’ follow button do? I tried clicking it but it only refreshes MM’s homepage D:
You know, I’m not sure. I think that, if you’re signed up with Inkoutbreak.com it lets you add the comic to your favorites list.
This inforaimotn is off the hizool!
Chainsaw Unicorn!
I have the power of Chainsaw Unicorn! (just bought the tee shirt-yaay). That adds to my Medusa and Bitchy Mermaids (gotta catch ’em all). Team Rocket look out–thar’s a new sheriff in town.
Hey Jake if you reach ten thousand dollars will you add another bonus comic?
The last panel is so cute!!!!!
