Still waiting on the proof for the main book to show up, but I have the full run for the classic books with the restored art now! We'll be in shipping mode very soon!
I love how crisp the colors look!
Thanks so much for supporting this project. The Golden Age restorations really are a passion for me, and I hope in the future I can grow the audience a bit more to justify spending time doing more.
For now, I have a new novel out today, if you like classic sci-fi in the tradition of Heinlein, you'll really enjoy Colony Launch. Check it out here.

I always run a proof copy to make sure everything prints right before getting the books out. The proof is on the way and will be here within the week. As long as everything looks good, that means we'll start printing physical copies next week!
So excited!
Over on IndieGoGo I launched a new book you might like if you've enjoyed my writing so far. It's called RoboToad: Rekt Manelt. It's a one-shot, complete story, and very fun and whimsical if you liked the style of this story.
Check it out here.
Digital Books Have Gone Out!

Digital books of all sorts are out to backers now.
If you haven't filled out your BackerKit survey, you didn't receive the books. So make sure you do so! An email will have come from BackerKit, check your spam.
Still waiting on print files of all varieties, but we will have these well before the promised July date.
This project was so fun and I think we created a killer story. Everyone who's read so far has said really positive things so I appreciate it!
My next book will be Colony Launch, a science fiction novel on Amazon. It'll be out April 22nd and can be preordered on Kindle here.
Comic wise, not sure what's coming out or going to be crowdfunded next -- those who follow me are aware I have a LOT of different books in the pipeline as I'm working to compete with the mainstream industry -- which means coming out with content at a rate the pros do. I'll of course keep you guys updated when the next project is ready.
Thanks again! Hope you enjoy.
BLASTing Off At The Speed of EXPLOSIONS!

Hey all! Hope your quarantines are going well.
The good news is -- Dynamite Thor is ready to go. As soon as Kickstarter drops its funds over you'll be getting an email from BackerKit for a survey, and within that there will be your digital downloads of Dynamite Thor. So you'll have something good to read!
ETA for the Kickstarter disbursement is tomorrow or Wednesday, so it should be very soon.
You'll notice there were a couple of stretch goals for Dynamite Thor which didn't quite make it (we were close!). I got these stories done in advance so even though they're not a part of the Kickstarter, you can still get them.
Meta-Girl Meets Dyanmite Thor is available in Flying Sparks Issue #0 -- both in Print and Kindle on Amazon.
And Young Dynamite Thor -- the completely new prequel story is available in my new short comic issue, Spectacular Comics #1 -- this just released yesterday in both Print and Kindle editions.
If you love classic comics, this book will be for you as we worked to recapture the short comic fun in old EC Comics or Tales of Suspense books from Marvel. The Dynamite Thor story ties in nicely with my book here as well.
Lots of great reading for you to enjoy. Print editions won't be far behind so you'll be hearing from us soon.
Excelsior!
Stretch Goal #1 Unlocked!

Hey there true believers!
I can't believe I haven't posted any updates. That's unlike me! It's been a busy crazy couple of weeks since this campaign launched.
But great news is -- we're funded. Book is not only going to be made, but we are 100% done with it. It's ready to go!
And we're also getting chapter covers made for the books. This means each split for an "issue" will get its own interior cover by our great artist Donald Kent. They're amazing and hilarious pieces. I'd show them here but you'll have to find me on some other platform to see them because they're a bit spicy :). (Nothing above PG-13, I promise. But some platforms don't judge based on normal standards...)
I really want to nail these next couple stretch goals during the campaign because it's more story content for you, which is what I'm about first and foremost.
Up at 7K is the Dynamite Thor meets Meta-Girl crossover with Flying Sparks. It's a short and a lot of fun.
Then at 8K is Young Dynamite Thor -- an origin story of Young Peter Thor discovering his powers. It's really cool and has a great little rascals/sandlot vibe like classic films with young boys being rambunctious.
We'll want to get to these. Couple of ways you can help:
1. Up your pledge! We've got great rewards. If you want to check out any of my other graphic novels or even want a signed book from me for my Steampunk Novels or Sci-Fi stuff, just add $20 to your pledge and it'll be available in a store as an option after the campaign closes.
2. Tell your friends. Share this on social media, let folk know. Dynamite Thor was HIDDEN from all searches for the first two weeks of the campaign which really hurt its visibility. A lot of people probably haven't seen it. Let people know it's here, why you think it's cool, and why you're backing.
Thanks all for the support. I can't wait to get these books into your hands!
Excelsior!
