Hopping to it! 🐰

The studio is buzzing with activity these days 🐝 from conventions, projects, and Kickstarters! Perhaps it’s the warmer weather putting a spring into our step and bringing our hibernating peers out…

April also brings the end of Dax Gordine’s Forest Folk: Quips & Quandaries Kickstarter campaign (LINKS πŸ”— in BOLD!) this Thursday, April 6 - so you still have time to jump on in…

Thanks for reading RAID Table Talk! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

FOREST FOLK: QUIPS & QUANDARIES - the third book in the Forest Folk series - is currently 184% funded and in its FINAL 48HRS! We are thrilled by the return support for this series, as well as the new faces who have discovered the series over the past year by picking up a book or two at comic shows!

We’ve had a lot of fun with this campaign - creating the Buzzfeed What Forest Folk Character Are You? Quiz, and the March Forest Folk Madness head-to-head poll battles to discover who YOU wanted as the next enamel pin in our Forest Folk enamel pin series (Ollie the Otter narrowly beat Basil the Bat!)

If you haven’t yet, now’s the time to come on board - we have some fantastic tiers which feature just the book, all the way up to some wonderful commission tiers by Dax! Plus, we’ve also dropped A BUNCH of T-shirts in the campaign Add-Ons section that you’ll love. Should we reach our next Stretch Goal all backers will receive a wonderful Forest Folk keychain πŸ—οΈ the design of which you’ll get to vote on!

Some Easter shenanigans Forest Folk style β€” as the holiday quickly approaches!

FINAL DAY of DEATH TRANSIT TANGER by KARL KERSCHL!

A young woman with a strange gift travels the galaxy to help lost souls find their way home in this new sci-fi series, Death Transit Tanager, from our studio friend and Eisner Award-winning artist, Karl Kerschl.

The comic is part of our RAID: Creator Visions 100-card collectible set, and the campaign ends TODAY (Wednesday, April 5, at 10:30 am EDT). SNAG IT before it’s too late!

Spring has blurred by as we exhibited at more shows than we ever have! As the dust settles from this past weekend’s C2E2 and MEGACON we still have several events forthcoming!
