Multiplex: The Revenge pre-orders are OPEN

Now that the Kickstarter project has ended and Multiplex: The Revenge is funded (yay!), I can open up the floor for pre-orders to non-backers via BackerKit. I’m using BackerKit instead of handling things through the Multiplex store (as I did with Book Two), because merging everything and keeping track of essentially two separate crowdfunding projects proved to be a huge headache; BackerKit streamlines that process for me tremendously.

NOT all of the Kickstarter rewards are available, and some are slightly different: i.e. you don’t get your name on the Acknowledgments page of the book, and while you can get vector portraits, I can’t promise that you’ll make it into the third book. (There is only so much room!) Some of the higher level rewards (like original comic strips) are not available, either — although if you have your heart set on one of those, just shoot me an e-mail, and we can probably figure something out.

The current stretch goal is to fund a second printing of Multiplex: Enjoy Your Show (Book One), a necessary step before I can doing a fourth printed book. The amount needed is $7500, with roughly $1,238.97 of Kickstarter’s surplus (the amount over the $24,000 funding goal) applicable toward that. Once this goal is reached, I’ll add Book One  as a reward goal for ANY Kickstarter or BackerKit backers (“preorder backer,” as they call them).

I’ll put up a few more visible graphics on the site later — there’s no urgency at this time, so I won’t be bugging you guys about it often. These BackerKit pre-orders will be open for several months and only “lock” in the summer shortly before Book Three goes to press.

If you do want to get your funding dollars in to help support the ongoing production of the book series, check out the Multiplex: The Revenge Pre-Order page on BackerKit today!

Multiplex: Enjoy Your Show is sold out — maybe?

Multiplex: Enjoy Your Show (Book One) is now sold out at the publisher (a.k.a. me) — assuming, that is, that the Multiplex: The Revenge Kickstarter is successfully funded, and the copies of Book One reserved by backers at the “Just Three Books” and “Trilogy Pack” levels are  sent off.

You can still pick up copies of Book Two with your Book Three reward package, read the eBooks… or, you know, obviously the website still exists! The “Story So Far Pack” includes Book Two, Book Three, and the eBooks for Book One, though, which gives you all of the bonus material except for the print-exclusive “Prequel” story from Book One.

Amazon still has a handful of copies of Book One left, too — as well as Multiplex: There and Back Again (Book Two) — but I’ll start looking into reprinting Book One if/when Book Three is successfully funded. There are a lot of hurdles to figure out with reprinting Book One, particularly the printing cost, but if I do get it reprinted I’ll make sure Book Three backers will be able to “upgrade” their reward pack to add a copy of Book One, even after the Kickstarter funding period has ended.

But you don’t need Book One or Two to enjoy Multiplex: The Revenge! While I would recommend starting with Book Two, at least, there will be a “The Story So Far” segment at the beginning of Book Three to help new readers (or people who haven’t read these older strips in a while) get up to speed, just like there was at the start of Book Two. You can read Book Two’s segment over at Kickstarter, if you’re curious.

Cyber Monday is stupid, but the books are on sale, anyway!

In addition to the Multiplex Book set being 25% off, the individual Multiplex books are now 20% off each — and for you digital comics readers, the PDF eBooks are on sale, as well. Check out the EXTREME SAVINGS at the Multiplex Store today!

I feel like a prostitute every time I write copy like this. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Shut Up Already T-shirt now available! Also, the books are on sale!

Jason’s T-shirt from Multiplex #967 is now available in the Multiplex Store:

MX-SHUTUP

Also! I know it’s rather early for this, but people have already started putting Christmas stuff up (bah humbug), so what the hell. For the 2014 holiday season, if you buy BOTH Multiplex books from the store, you’ll get them for $10 off!
