55K Stretch Goal Unlocked!

Well, we smashed through that goal in no time! Thanks to all who made that possible. And for everyone who got a physical rewards tier, please take a moment to find a special place in your home where you can showcase your BRAND NEW FREE FOL’KLOR BOOKMARK (I always think they look nice in the traditional place of honor upon the hearth, but if you prefer to make a small shrine in your bedroom that’s cool too! It’s really up to you)!

…you could always just put it in your favourite book too. Honestly, whatever works for you.

THE KICKSTARTER COMMUNITY

I just wanted to take a moment to thank the Kickstarter community and everyone that’s reached out with their advice and support in the last week. I’ve met some genuinely nice people here and it really makes this whole process so much more rewarding and engaging. I can’t remember the last time I had this much fun making comics!


And speaking of genuinely nice and talented people, check out Dungeons & Dimwits: Critical Miss from the fine folks at Dren Productions Games! 

Based on real events.

Any fan of fantasy has probably played a few RPG’s in their day…  maybe you’re playing an RPG right now…  either way, I’m sure you have a couple of hilarious stories to tell about it. Dren Productions has stories too and they’ve taken their commitment to telling those stories to the next level in this 52-page, full color comic extravaganza! 


“The idea for Dungeons & Dimwits came about by a group of us making jokes while playing some tabletop games. We started telling stories about some of the weird stuff players (and game masters) have done, and then I started visualizing what that might look like in the world of the game.” ~ Dren Productions Games

THAT’S ALL FOL’KS!

And that’s it for this update! Stay tuned right here for more Fol’Klor recommendations, Add-ons & Stretch Goal news!

My First Stretch Goal!
over 4 years ago – Fri, Aug 27, 2021 at 06:21:48 AM

800 Backers!

First off, I wanted to again thank you for all of your interest and support for Fol’Klor! As of today we have 800 backers which is incredible!

50K!!

We also crossed the 50K line this week so I wanted thank you fine Fol’Ks (doesn’t work, does it?;) and also unveil my first stretch goal at $55,000! 

A Laminated Fol’Klor Bookmark!

 When we cross this threshold, I’ll include a FREE FOL’KLOR BOOKMARK for every physical pledge reward! 

We’ve got 27 days left in this campaign and I’ve got more surprises on the way so stay tuned!



AND SPEAKING OF UNEARTHLY HORRORS BEYOND ALL IMAGINING…

I want to recommend a new horror magazine by the eeriely talented and charasmatic creator known only as THE SKINNER

…oh wait, I’m told It’s just ‘Skinner’, not ‘The Skinner’. Okay, well, either way this guy has got the market cornered on all things horror. SKIN CRAWL Magazine follows along in the tradition of the old Warren and EC horror comics and it looks fantastic! 

Horrific 1st Issue of SKIN CRAWL Magazine!

Skinner’s art is also featured in the newly announced PSYCHO GOREMAN Anthology from LETHAL COMICS!  Check out  https://lethalcomics.com/  for more info! 


SKIN CRAWL Magazine has 4 days left in its campaign so you’d best hurry if you want to get in on the ghoulish action!

And, Fol’Klor #1 is now listed on Kickstarters front page as a #ProjectWeLove, which is amazing!



Add-Ons

There were requests for more ”Mix’n’Match”capabilities that would let you pair your favorite cover (or covers) with your preferred tier. That said, both Dan Panosian’s and Tula Lotay’s covers now available as Add-On’s! 

Also, we blew through 100 of the initial Cary Nord B Covers but we can certianly print more If the demand is there! 



30 Days to Go!

We’re just getting started! Lots of updates to come! Please feel free to ask any questions and I’ll do my best to get back to you quickly! Thank you all once again!

Wow, already the support for this has been incredible (and in only 3 hrs! I’m humbled)! Thank you all so much for helping to make this happen. I don’t think I’ve ever worked as hard on something in my life and somehow I’ve never been happier. I hope you all love this project as much as I do! Thanks again for this tremendous show of support!
