Hello Soulfire Backers! 

Hope all of you have been doing fantastic since our last update! As many of you may know, we’ve run several other successful campaigns on Kickstarter besides Soulfire: The Core, and our newest has recently launched…

Ekos Volume 1!

Ekos is a brand new universe inspired by the art and creations of Michael Turner and Geoff Johns and is produced by the founder of Marvel Studios, David Maisel!

We’ve put together an incredible All-star line up of talent for the book: 

J.T. Krul writing - Alex Konat on art - Mark Roslan on inks - Peter Steigerwald on colors - Josh Reed on lettering. 

We also gathered a host of incredible guest Superstar artists for covers to go along with our Michael Turner offerings including:

Alex Konat!   Joe Benitez!   Khary Randolph!   Siya Oum!   David Mack!   Francis Manapul!   Kendrick Lim!   Joe Quesada!   J. Scott Campbell!   Jerome Opena!...and Alex Ross!

The Ekos Volume 1 campaign is our newest and biggest we’ve ever done (with the Kickstarter CEO saying - "This is Historic!"), providing fans and backers an endless amount of choices! Our amazing offerings include the complete collected hardcover and comic issues; incredible collectibles from holofoil covers to original art; limited numbered exclusives and trading cards; and brand new Ekos Universe products such as puzzles, prints, apparel, and so much more!

If you haven’t had the chance yet, make sure to stop by our Ekos Volume 1 campaign (link below!) and take a look around. We’re sure you’ll like what you see!

Thanks so much!

99%!! And That's a Wrap!!
over 3 years ago – Tue, Aug 30, 2022 at 08:38:57 PM

Aspen Backers!!

Hope everyone is doing fantastic and either enjoying their campaign goodies or looking forward to receiving them any day now! As noted in the subject line of this message, we are now at an amazing 99% FULFILLED!! That means every order able to be shipped has been sent and with less than 10 surveys still outstanding, it took us just under 2 weeks to get all of your orders packaged and out the door! That includes ALL international orders which we couldn't be more thrilled about, getting those shipped as quickly as we did!

Seeing all of the posts and pics of everyone going through their items has been great and we know many of you are already asking about getting more books, trading card packs and other products we had listed on the campaign. We're going to ensure we give it some time for everyone to receive their packages in case of any missing deliveries or damages. However, once we're in a good spot to release whatever extra inventory we have remaining, we will certainly let everyone know! 

In the meantime, please join me in about 30 minutes at 2p PST / 5p EST for our latest LIVE update show on our Aspen Comics FB page where we'll be discussing the strong ending to our campaign and answering any questions you may have. 

See you all then!

Aspen Backers!!

I've returned home from Aspenstore after a long week of non-stop fulfilling of SOULFIRE THE CORE, and things could not have gone any better!! As of today we're at 91% of all orders shipped out with less than 80 more to go! Another international shipment will be heading out by weeks' end and we should be close to 100% fulfilled by the weekend. If you're one of the few who has not yet received your shipping notification, please hang tight as you should be receiving it any day now! 

It's so great to see all of the pictures, posts and comments from everyone who has received their goodies! So happy all of you are enjoying the books and your campaign items. Everything turned out so fantastic and we're proud to have delivered on another hugely successful campaign!

Please make sure to join me in about 15 minutes at 2p PST / 5P EST for our latest LIVE update show on our Aspen Comics Facebook page. I'll give you all the most recent info on the campaign and we'll discuss the huge BY US print show coming up this Thursday! See you all then!
