We're so excited, DESTINATIONS seeker!
With one week left in this epic campaign, we've just unlocked an amazing BackerKit add-on…
PINK PITCHER'S ORIGINAL WATERCOLOR PAGES FROM "SUMMIT"!
Now, you have the chance to own an 11x14" original watercolor page of "Summit," stunning 8-page comic from Pink Pitcher!
These pages are all one-of-a-kind and completely hand-drawn and painted…not to mention absolutely gorgeous!
Each page will be available after the campaign in BackerKit, giving every backer at every pledge level the opportunity to order the one they want most!
But be warned…they are first-come, first-served!
With each individual page valued at $200, and the final two-page spread sold together for just $350, these beautiful works of art will go fast, so be sure to order yours as soon as possible when our preorder store goes live after the campaign!
How Can You Get These Pages?
After the DESTINATIONS campaign ends, we'll open up a Preorder Store on BackerKit, a third-party service that helps us reach more backers, offer additional rewards, send out surveys to backers, and fulfill rewards.
The "Summit" pages will be available in the Preorder Store shortly after the campaign ends, and any pages that don't sell there will be available as add-ons when backer surveys go out.
They will not be available as Kickstarter add-ons!
About "SUMMIT"
In "Summit," one lonely backpacker braves the bugs, the bears, the blisters, and the beauty of the back country to find that most elusive of destinations…peace.
Featuring breathtaking watercolor art by Pink Pitcher, this 8-page comic is one of the highlights of the DESTINATIONS Anthology!

Meet LK Ingino, Writer of "Never Say Boo"

Hello hello, DESTINATIONS seeker!
Why don't we take some time to meet another creator with work appearing in the DESTINATIONS Anthology?
This week, we're happy to introduce you to…
L.K. Ingino, Writer of "Never Say Boo"!
L.K. Ingino is a speculative fiction and comic writer, poet (Leanne Kathleen Ingino), and singer.She loves fairytales, myths, dark tales, the strange and bizarre, dark humor, and puns so bad they’re good.
In addition to her short comic, “Never Say Boo,” coming in the DESTINATIONS Anthology, she’s had short comics published in multiple anthologies including Cthulhu is Hard to Spell 2, Tales from Neverland, Not So Fair Tales, I Like Robots, and more! She is currently working on her own comics, Fangs & Foul Play and The Orb Teller. She can usually be found trying to create all the things.
Here's a tidbit from our interview with L.K. Ingino:
Your comics work often embraces dark humor. Where do you draw the line between morbid and funny? Are they the same thing?
I think the line is fairly fluid, as is humor, really. What one person finds funny, someone else might not, and of course, I’m not talking about bullying or anything that is dehumanizing. But, in general, humor is subjective. For example, I love puns, lots of people….errr, don’t. I certainly think that nowadays it’s almost hard to survive without having some base level of gallows humor as even the most carefree of us likely find it hard to ignore everything going on in the world right now.

Hey, DESTINATIONS backer!
If you're like us, you've received approximately fifty zillion calls, texts, emails, and ads about #GivingTuesday today. Which, frankly, is great. We love giving what we can to those in need, to the organizations that do good in this world, and more.
But it can be a little overwhelming.
So we wanted to let you know that, since you backed this campaign, we're going to be donating FOR you!
Each and every backer of DESTINATIONS will have a tree planted in their honor through our official partnership with One Tree Planted!
When the campaign ends, they'll plant a tree for every backer, wherever they're needed most, in order to:
🌱 Restore ecosystems
🌳 Sequester carbon
🌲 Give back to the trees who turn into comics!
You don't need to do anything extra…we'll donate for you!
If you DO want to take an extra step and plant more trees, great news! You can do it through the Oneshi Press/One Tree Planted donation portal!
Just visit https://oneshipress.com/onetreeplanted and give $1 for each tree you'd like to plant! You can help us reach our goal of 500 trees planted in 2022!
'Dagon' is a short story by American author H.P. Lovecraft. This Kickstarter is for a comic book adaptation of the classic Lovecraft tale, written and illustrated by Chris Askham (creator of Switchblade Stories). This version brings the tale forward to modern times. An experienced sailor becomes lost at sea only to be discovered days later in a state of hysteria and shock. A journalist is given the task of interviewing the sailor years later, and tries to make sense of his drink and drug addled memories of what happened.

Welcome to a new week, DESTINATIONS seeker!
Today we'd like to take a moment to tell you all about…
PACK: DESTINATIONS
In this 8-page comic co-written by Lynsey G and Jayel Draco (co-founders of Oneshi Press), illustrated by Sean Bova, and lettered by Cardinal Rae…
…the 6 stray dogs—and 1 stray man—who protect the innocent on the streets of Brooklyn are back!
Along the way, danger stalks his every step. With the Dogs of Virtue on the job, will he reach his door safely?
Or not?
PACK is an ongoing comic book series that combines urban noir with vigilante crime-fighting to tackle issues like police corruption, gentrification, and animal rights…all in a 7-issue series.
PACK: DESTINATIONS is the first standalone short comic offshoot from the series, and with the imaginative illustrations by Sean Bova, we know you're going to love it as much as we do!
The "drunken love child of Rolling Stone and MAD Magazine" is back, and this time, our focus is on COMIC CONVENTIONS.
The magazine is a combination of comics and articles about comics from an experienced team of writers and artists. Our team has articles lined up on Steve Ditko, the drunk side of Comic Con, Dollar Bin Dives, Conventions in Comics, Spider-Man's anniversary (the web-head looks great for 60!), and more, as well as our Best of 2022 and plenty of actual comics from some of our favorite rising star creators.
