This is just a quick update for you guys. We wanted to share a couple of the pages from the book with you.
It seems here, by looking at this, that Plan 59 is a complete success! So what does that mean for humanity? Well, it means that we will bow down to our alien overlords for all eternity!
Wait! No! That can't be the end can it? The aliens can't possibly win can they? Well, you're just going to have to wait until you get your copy of the book to find out!
Anyway, enjoy these couple of pages here, and always let us know what you think!
Just a reminder. We're nearing our next stretch goal! Let's get there so we can add some extra pages into this book!
We also have a few more sketches left for our sketch covers (sketch cover included when you buy the sketch!) And we also want to remind you of our limited virgin holofoil covers. Both can be added as add-ons!
Happy Thanksgiving

Wanted to wish all my U.S. backers a Happy Thanksgiving for tomorrow! We wanted to know how thankful we are here at Dren for fans like you! You are truly something else.
That being said, just a couple short announcements.
We passed that next stretch goal, so we have another print in the bag now. That's awesome!!
And don't forget, we have that limited virgin holofoil cover for you guys as an add-on!
But most of all, have a safe and happy holiday tomorrow (those of us in the U.S.). And for everyone, just go out and give thanks for all the good you have in your life!
We surely appreciate you!
Tonight's recommendation first caught our eye because we have an anthology coming out in the spring with the same title (but more on that soon). But when we took a look at this one, it just looked great! So, we had to give it a share!

Hey all,
So we are SOOOOO close to reaching that next stretch goal. We just need a little jump to unlock it!
Seeing as we're traveling this afternoon, however, we wanted to throw that next Stretch goal up for you to see. And what is it? How do you feel about having an extra mini-comic added to the book?
So, lets jump on and get us over that hump!
The other bit of news we have for you is we've put in a new add-on! This is our first ever virgin cover, and to boot it's a holofoil! The aliens will really be upset about this one! Mwa ha ha!
As with all our holofoils, we will only print what is ordered. So if 10 of them are ordered, there will only be 10, if 50 are ordered, there will be 50. That's all there will be!
So, check it out! How can you go wrong with a beautiful cover like this?
So, our share for today is a cool horror comic series that we have enjoyed for a while now. It's got a great stry, and terrific artwork.
Miskatonic High is a comic series about the students who take on H.P. Lovecraft-style monsters and their small-town high school...they're just not sure which is worse.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1442861719/miskatonic-high-12-and-complete-lovecraft-pi-mh-crossover
Each issue is a standalone issue so it's always a great time to jump in! Or get one of our catch-up rewards to get the full series!
And don't worry, you don't need to know anything about H.P. Lovecraft to enjoy this series, just like you don't have to remember anything from your high school music class either
So, what are you waiting for? Head on over and check it out!

Thanks all!

More Sketch Covers!

It seems that you guys really wanted sketches on those sketch covers!
Since we ran out of them so early in the campaign, and we've had some people asking for them, we are adding a second round of them! So, anyone who wants to grab a sketch cover with an original sketch by one of our creators, Mike Dolce, jump on and grab it before they're gone.
We won't be adding a third round of these if they sell out quickly, and there are only 5 more available!
And don't forget, we added a brand new cover today! It's a fun one, that fits the idea of the story.
That being said, we have another couple of campaigns for you to check out.
The first one is called Old Man Rufus, and it is a new Killeroo comic book, taking place some 30 years in the future of the regular series. It's a one-shot for now, but may be expanded to several issues if well received.
However, the Australia of the future is a very different place, after several nuclear strikes on the Eastern coast have made much of the country a barren wasteland. The only remaining city is Perth, with all of Western Australia walled off by an enormous barrier to maintain the Cyberpunk-like society that has developed there.
For a world that Killeroo once had to hide away from society, THIS Australia is now largely his domain.

Jump on over (no pun intended) and check this one out!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/killeroo/oldmanrufus
The other one is a fun... yeah, let's call it fun... horror anthology called Holiday Spirits.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bd4db-issue3/holiday-spirits
Holiday Spirits is a comic book horror anthology with suspenseful and thrilling Christmas tales brought to you by 15 super talented indie creators. This high-quality 80-page book is a must-have under the tree this year! if you like Tales from the Crypt, Twilight Zone or Alfred Hitchcock Presents, this comic book is for you.
The book contains 6 stories that are set in either the past, the present and the future. Each of these stories will be introduced by the 3 ghosts of Christmas made famous by the book THE CHRISTMAS CAROL by Charles Dickens.
Head on over and check this one out too!

New Cover!

First, thank you guys once again. We've surpassed another stretch goal! Last night we officially unlocked the Digital Motion Covers! So another great reward for all of you!
But we're here this morning to announce our new cover! It is already in the lineup if you wanted to add it to your your pledge! We call it Trapped, and it is by Matheus.
We've got some more excitement coming--including some thrilling new stretch goals. So be on the lookout!
Before we go though, we have a couple of projects we wanted to share. The first is by one of our friends, who's contributed to some of our anthologies (including an upcoming one for next year), L.K. Ingino!
She has a... cute... dare we say cute??? Anyway, it's a cute kitty, who happens to be a vampire in this horror comic called Fangs and Fouls Play, and you need to take a look at it!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lkingino/fangs-and-foul-play-horror-justice-and-an-evil-vampiric-cat
A telepathic vampiric cat, Fang, in a Victorian town, just wants to eat! Meanwhile, a conflicted ex-colonel just wants to do the right thing. What happens when he becomes enthralled to Fang?
This PG-13 light horror comic is perfect for anyone who loves cats, Sabrina, and The Addams Family. If this sounds like you, then Fangs & Foul Play is right up your alley, you alley cat, you.
This definitely looks like a fun (if not horrifying) comic. So, you should definitely take a look.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lkingino/fangs-and-foul-play-horror-justice-and-an-evil-vampiric-cat
Then we have an interesting one. As some of you know, we here at Dren also publish TTRPG related materials. So, when we saw a comic that was also a D&D supplement, we had to jump on it!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/luminousages/luminous-ages-comic-the-baize-and-book-of-monsters-5e-campaign/description
Part comic, part book of monsters, and then some other cool stuff thrown in as well (who likes minis?). The Bai Ze and the Book of Monsters has many monsters, races, and NPCs inspired by Chinese Mythology. The book of monsters has been stolen by the villains of the Luminous Ages world from the Yellow Emperor (Huang Di) and the Bai Ze a goat-like lion creature.
Definitely check this one out too!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/luminousages/luminous-ages-comic-the-baize-and-book-of-monsters-5e-campaign/description
And we usually don't put three campaigns here for suggestions, but this one ends in just about 12 hours, so we needed to throw this one in! And it looks awesome!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/amryldark/razors-edge-anthology-1-comic-by-amryl-dark-entertainment/
It's an anthology for Amryl Dark Entertainment's series Razor's Edge!
Razor's Edge Anthology #1 is an exciting 32-page full color comic that consists of 4 separate character stories and will help establish Razor and the rest of the awesome characters in the new shared universe with Cavewoman in the Amryl Dark Universe. The stories pick up with these characters where they are now and continues their stories from where they left off, and will not be throwing out their histories to start from scratch. So it's a great jumping on point as well!
There's not much time left on this one, so definitely give it a look while you still can!

Thanks all!
