Mystery Solved
Chapter: Comics, Season Five
I think some folks saw this one coming and I am okay with that.
Say hello to Carlos’ Grandma, Mrs. Diaz. I like her and like everyone else in the cast, her look will evolve as I become more comfortable drawing her. I am really trying to stretch my limits again lately and it is fun.
Guys, d20Monkey: First Edition is on sale right now for $10 and I am signing every book ordered!
Hover-Text: Then she pulls her face off to reveal Phillip Dove.
She’s not fat enough. Not even close
That shawl is bigger on the inside.
i thought at first that it said “then she pulled phillip dove’s face off.” ah well, one can hope.
I ordered my (second) copy of the book 11 days ago, any chance if it hasn’t shipped it can get in on the signing? š
Oh shit! Let me check the store site. I’m so sorry for the delay!
No problem at all, man. Thanks for the quick response!
Sam in profile! Without glasses! Have we seen either before? It really hammered home the disorienting nature of the circumstances.
Well done, Brian.
wooho, I’m one of those who saw through! yay!
cool strip btw
this makes me happy because the more backstory the more likely carlos is hear to stay and i like him and his grandma so far
Called it!
I’m hoping he plays a barbarian like in dungeon run that whole concept was inspired.
I might have to borrow that trick when the JWs come. That’s presuming I’m wrong about them blacklisting us.
I just open the door, yell “CHRISTMAS IS REAL” and shut the door.
Yup, that’s pretty much what I expected. Also, Brian you’ve changed Dove’s voice in my head from pompous jackass to Red Herring from Pup Named Scooby-Doo.
And damn you Patterson! I’m trying to save money and you keep making awesome things I need to buy. And then putting your old things I haven’t bought yet on sale too?! You are determined to drain my bank account >(
So uh Brian… dammit, now I have to buy the d20Monkey thing… I mean if you’re signing it and all.
Unrelated… did anyone else notice that Mrs Diaz is wearing black glasses… Another blind Character perhaps?
The $10 signed book seems like a bit of a kick in the nuts to Kickstarter backers. We had to pay a lot more.
If you ever do another one, the mentality might be to hold off a year and the price will be a hell of a lot better…
Although, due to paranoia, I’d probably still back it…
The kickstarter was 2 years ago…I’m surprised he didn’t do it sooner.
And 15 bucks more for the sign copy isn’t ‘a lot’
….especially when the whole point of the KS was so he could make the book in the first place.
Let’s make sure to compare apples to apples instead of apples to dogs, then:
Kickstarter:
$25 = Get the book a year-or-more earlier; includes shipping anywhere in the USA; signed book; signed exclusive cover print; the PDF
This new offer:
$10 = Get the book today; pay at least $5 in shipping, not included; signed book; no exclusive signed cover print; no inclusion of PDF noted
So the $15 difference is: Inclusion of shipping; PDF; signed exclusive cover print; earlier access to a signed copy of the book than anyone else in the world.
There’s no kick in the nuts. At worst, it’s a light pat on the butt.
That certainly isn’t my intention at all. The book has been out there for a while and honestly, I hoped to sell a few extra for a week or two to 1) Less to pack/move and 2) Add to my moving fund. It does not include the bells/whistles the campaign did but now I am paranoid about it so I will probably cut the sale short, just in case.
After reading the replies, my first post was a bit knee-jerk.
My Bad.
For some reason I thought it was last year, and I had spent more on the project, so I don’t think I realized that the book, pdf and such was only $25 to start. So in light of that and Mr. Hicks’ breakdown of it, I wanted to retract my previous nut kick comment and downgrade to a surprise kick in the rear.
Tried buying a book, but when I tried paying I wasn’t charged for shipping, and I don’t think shipping to Sweden is free.
Should probably add that I cancelled the order and posted here for clarification instead.
Did you get all the way through to the PayPal page? That is weird. Everything looks good on my end.
Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I got to the PayPal page without shipping being added. Going to try again.
Still no joy on shipping. I don’t get why the store won’t add it. Have I missed a step somewhere?
Seems like Carlos is a chip off the ol’ block.
I just love Charlie’s analogies. I’m going to have to start keeping a list.
I hope she plays D&D!
Omg that’s it! She gets the spot instead of Carlos… Or maybe as well as?
Oh my god that would be awesome
