Strangebeard Vol. 1 on Kickstarter!

I've finished the first volume of Strangebeard! It's called The Ghost Pirate's Gift, and it'll be 114 pages of piratical awesomeness. I've launched a Kickstarter to cover the costs of printing the book, and I'm proud to report that the funding has already reached its minimum!

 The next challenge is secure stretch goals; we've already passed the $5000 mark which means everyone at the $25+ level gets a bookmark and a die-cut sticker... but at $6000, we can upgrade the book to nicer paper and better stock for the cover!

I've also got some pinup artists supplying me with amazing artwork for the book: so far, I've got Riley Rossmo, Mike Rooth, Tom Fowler, Fiona Staples, and Nick Bradshaw announced. I'll announce two more tomorrow (Friday) and a final artist on the weekend. Keep your peepers trained on my Twitter feed for more news.
Thanks so much to those of you who've pledged, and for those of you who are planning to. It's been a wild ride so far but I thank you from the bottom of my heart.


Strangebeard

Today's the big day! I've launched Strangebeard, my sophomore webcomic, on its maiden voyage.



Strangebeard tells the story of Jenny Brigham, a servant girl living on bustling Crook Island. Although she loves her mother and works very hard at the Shivering Timbers Inn, Jenny has always dreamed of a life as a briny outlaw on the high seas. On her twelfth birthday, she'll get her wish.

Strangebeard is a project near and dear to my heart. I love all things pirate and Strangebeard has been the most professionally rewarding work of my career. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy working on it.
