Anime Boston: April 6-8

 

The time has come!  I'll be at ANIME BOSTON this weekend, April 6-8, at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, Massachusetts.
 
I'll be selling:
  • Commissions!  At amazing prices!
  • Print copies of Issue #1 of Prince of Cats and promo posters
  • Drawings, paintings and prints of fanart and original work
  • Prints from the 1000 Idols Project
  • Prints of the 40 Years of Magical Girls Poster and trading cards
 
I'll be showing off:
  • A process book of all the original artwork from the Prince of Cats comic
  • Previews of Issue 02 of Prince of Cats
  • Other works-in-progress
 
I'll be auctioning off fanart paintings in the Art Show, too!
 
 
 
ALL PRINT COMIC ORDERS are now on hold!  If you place an order between now and next Tuesday, I will not be able to respond until I return.  When I return, I may be out of comics, and will need to reorder.  But I will reorder, and reorders will be shipped in a couple weeks!
 
Looking forward to meeting many of you!

ConBust: March 30-April 1!

Hey!  I'll be at ConBust this weekend, at the lovely Smith College campus in Northampton, Massachusetts, from March 30-April 1!

I'll have printed comics, and posters (see below!) for Prince of Cats for sale, and promotional postcards to give away.  I'll also have originals of comic strips and artwork on hand to show, including strips from part two of chapter one!  I will also have the usual- idol prints, fanart prints and loads of paintings and sketches for sale and show.  And open commissions!

Next weekend is Anime Boston!

Since for the next weekish (Mar 30 - April 5,) I will be either at a con or packing/preparing for a con, I will not be able to fulfill any email orders for printed comics until I return. I will still accept them, though – if you order a print or digital copy, I will email you the digital copy, but I won't be able to mail the print one until I return!  If you're interested, check the blog entry below this one!

Issue 1 is here! Order now!

The time has come! Order Now!

Prince of Cats, Issue No. 1 contains:

-All of Chapter 00 (re-edited) (5 pages)

-All of Chapter 01.1 (29 pages)

-4 pages of Bonus Exclusive (non-web) Comic "Accessory" (see sample below!)

-6 pages of author notes, sketch gallery and unused pages

-A PDF version of the whole comic sent to you almost immediately! (High quality images, three times as big as on the web!)

That's 44 pages of comic, on sale for $6.50 an issue! (Or if you just want the PDF, $2.50!)

PLUS, if you buy the physical version, she comes with an exclusive print: a 4 x 6 color print of "the photo inside of Lee's locker."  This watercolored artwork has not been and will not be released digitally anywhere online.  The only way to see it in all of its ridiculously cute 12-year-old-Frank-and-Lee-picking-pumpkins glory is to buy a physical copy, whether at a convention, or purchase via the internet!

But wait!  There's more!

Chapter 1, part 1 concludes on Friday, April 6th.  If you buy it within the next week, you will get to see a whole two week's worth of unreleased strips, and the high-tension conclusion of the arc, a whole two weeks early!

Oh, are you not particularly invested in owning print comics, but you would like to see the bonus content?  No problem!  Go ahead and buy the PDF version only!  It includes everything the physical one does (except for that little extra art print.  Sorry!)

How to preorder:  

Send me an email at korimichele@gmail.com with the subject "Prince of Cats Comic Purchase"  or... something reasonably similar. Specify if you would like the print version ($6.50+ $2.00 S&H in the US, inquire if outside US) or the PDF version only, ($2.50) and make sure you include your paypal-billable email.  I'll send you an invoice.  When that is paid, your comic will be sent (PDFs within 24 hours, and print comics within two business days) starting Monday, March 26th!

Or, catch me at an upcoming convention!

 
Are you not dying to know what is going on in this scene above?  Buy the comic to read the first installment of exclusive flashback mini bonus comics.  In "Accessory," Frank and Lee are 13 years old, and make bad decisions.  Oh youth!
 
Don't hesitate to email me with any questions you have!  Your purchase helps support the continued production of Prince of Cats!  Thank you!

By April, I hope to have some form of printed book of the first chapter of Prince Of Cats available for purchase.  It will include print-buying incentives, like extra offline bonus stories and images.  We're not sure if we're doing a issue-style book or a graphic novel shaped one, but I'll keep everyone updated, for sure!
 
In the coming weeks, the Gallery, Links, Characters, and About pages will be updated!  We are actively customizing the site, so if things look a little garbled once and a while, don't panic!  All will be in order again soon.  Thanks for your patience.
 
Thanks so much for following along!
