Welcome to the Family! 

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for a phenomenal first day. 

There were loads of great books launching yesterday, and we're very grateful you chose to join us. 

Thanks to you, we had our best first day for a FRIED Comic ever, and Kickstarter sent us this badge in less than 24 hours:

I've always said the best part of crowdfunding is seeing all the familiar names popping up in our Backer Report, so if you're a Frequent Frier, hearty thanks for returning to the scene of the crime!

If this is your first time backing Fried Comics, welcome! We promise you're in for a bloody good read. 

I'll be back every now and then to share updates on the campaign, but for now, I'll just say: thanks for the support. These comics literally wouldn't exist without you. 

And if you know someone who'd dig BLOOD OF THE GRUNCH, please share with a friend or twelve!

Death & the Maiden - Issues 1-2

Our friends at Dren Productions are back with their latest, a dark fantasy series based on the art of Jasmine Becket-Griffith and David Van Gough. Here's the pitch:

"When Stralice comes of age, she is sent to complete the Flourishing. She knows little of what is going to happen other than she must go to the Chimerian Wood. She only knows that she is not ready for this task. She makes the journey, carrying the two items she needs for her quest, an egg, and her heart. But what awaits her in the Chimerian Wood is not something that she is prepared for, and it pulls her on a journey she never thought possible." 

If this sounds like a book (and maiden) to die for...
