I feel like a massive narrative weight has been lifted from my shoulders with this one. A certain sequence I’ve been calling the ‘Cinder Transfer’ has been getting turned over in my head for way way way too long. I’m glad it’s finally out. 31 pages, damn! Please enjoy, and thanks for reading.
Alright I’m going on vacation now, feel like I worked straight through 2025 and I’m exhausted, I gotta relax! Gonna be in Japan for a bit, take pics and work on my scripts. Thank you for your support this year, thanks for reading and thanks for all the nice comments I get all the time. I love working on these comics.
Next update will prrrrobably be in early March, but I can’t say for sure. IRO is right on the edge of a big arc wrap-up and I like to drop those all at once. Maybe I’ll finish a few AHS pages before then. We’ll see! Keep you posted.
If you have questions about logistics or shipping, or if you missed the campaign for whatever reason, you can contact Zoop at hello@wearezoop.com and they’ll set you up. They’re handling all the production and fulfillment. I believe they can still take orders until production begins.
Here are some things I drew during the campaign (you can see them full-size by clicking on them). We got two big prints, some stickers and a bookmark. I made some pins too, I’ll post a pic when they actually exist. That smoldering Cinder pic is the cover for a little 32-page Tome 4 preview comic we’re sending out for free to everyone who ordered; that was our 500k stretch goal. Really cool I get to do that.
Not sure how busy I’ll be this month; the work I have left to do to get the book ready to print isn’t much but takes a lot of time, if you know what I mean. Emails and decisions and proofreading, all that. Still, there should be a new IRO chapter by the end of the month. AHS I might wait until I’ve got enough for a big chapter at the end of the year.
Keep you posted. Thanks again,
