Project Update: THANK YOU for a fantastic campaign for LILITH!
Our next steps now? Corin has already over the halfway point creating the first arc of the series, and every cover featured in this campaign is either complete or being actively created right now. We'll also be creating brand-new artwork for the body pillow, calendar, and other items in the campaign (pin-ups! glorious pin-ups!), and of course will keep you updated along the way.
We'll also actively prepare for the subscription release of Lilith #1 and onwards. We will reach out in the next few weeks with surveys to verify digital and physical delivery addresses for everyone who backed at those levels. Please don't hesitate to reach out anytime if you have a question about the series, campaign, or your rewards, and we'll get back to you swiftly.
We're out for now... but you'll be hearing from us again very soon ❤️ 🖤
Project Update: When Your Graphic Novel is So Good-Looking it Even Has Good-Looking Friends
Based on the results of yesterday's poll, we thought you'd be interested in checking out a few of the Comictopia projects that have embraced sex appeal and cool costumes! These are all friends of Autarch and Ascendant Comics who have worked behind the scenes to help us grow as a brand, and I hope you'll share with them some of the enthusiasm you've shared with us.
First off, of course, you'll want to check out our partner Sagaverse Studio. Their Sagaverse Chronicles cover a wide range of genres and all of them are linked into a set of RPGs they're creating. Here's their steampunk comic, Mechanical Horizon:
From there, you can head on over to check out Dynamite's Karma Vol 2, which has some dazzlingly sexy art. Be warned that this is a romantic slice-of-life comic with some naughty art, so please don't yell at me if you clink the link at work and get fired. That said, if you're a Stiletto fan, you might also be a fan of Karma....
Next up on our list of friends is The Legend of Rosa Blanca by our friends at American Mythology. La Rosa Blanca is a masked gunslinger in the vein of the Lone Ranger and Zorro. Like them, she's a skilled sharpshooter and a crack whipper, but she brings certain other assets to the table as well. Like Karma 2, this is a comic intended for mature audiences!
Don't forget that if you back five (5) Comictopia projects in total, you get a special comic book featuring the characters from all the contributors. And, because Sagaverse Studios is our studio partner, if you back Sagaverse Chronicles you get the amazing poster of Aurora and Yore, too!
And most important of all, vote in today's poll...
Project Update: Uh-Oh, I think my Polling might be Biased...
Thank you to everyone who has been voting in our daily polls. However, after a careful review of the polling data, however, I've noticed a disturbing trend. Namely, Stiletto got more votes for than the total of all of her male counterparts on the Squadron, and Singularity got twice as many votes as any other villain!
The empirical data seems to suggest that highly attractive female characters in revealing costumes seem to poll much, much better than all other type of characters. Tell me it isn't so!?
With today's poll, we will get to the bottom of this shocking and unexpected polling outcome...
Project Update: New Terminator Series Coming Your Way Soon!
The Terminator franchise is fully returning with new comic book stories this October — with heavy hitter creator Declan Shalvey at the helm, recruiting artist Luke Sparrow for each mission!
The war between the humans and the machines is coming home! Just in time for the franchise’s 40th anniversary, following the original film’s October 1984 release.
"The approach of this series is new situations, new dilemmas in each issue. Mostly done-in-one stories, but as the series progresses there may be some recognizable faces…," said writer Declan Shalvey. "We’re going for a more stripped-down, pulpy approach to the book. As innovative and groundbreaking as the first film was, it was also grounded in its environment, being noirish and moody as hell. An unstoppable force is coming to kill you — that’s the element of the franchise I want to lean into."
The plans to kill Sarah Connor and her son John have failed, but that isn't going to stop the genocidal Skynet. If at first it doesn't succeed, it's going to expand the theater of operations. There are still a few more avenues into the past to try that will allow it to eliminate the human resistance before it even starts. Skynet and its Terminators are determined to stamp out these pivotal figures in history before they lead to their processors being smashed into silicon shrapnel.
Acclaimed creator Declan Shalvey is back on board in the present for what is sure to be another hit project with Dynamite, following the massive, industry-shaking success of ThunderCats. This time the Alien, Old Dog, and Time Before Time writer is joined by rising star artist Luke Sparrow (Star Trek, Old Dog: Operations). The duo are locked in and ready to unleash all-new tales of Skynet and its nigh-unstoppable mechanical assassins.
They're paired with algorithmically perfect covers from Shalvey himself, as well as Edwin Galmon, Joshua "Sway" Swaby, and David Cousens. The first issue of the upcoming series also features a stunning "Icon Cover" for collectors to grab, presenting the iconic artwork by Alex Ross early in his career for the "Burning Earth" storyline.
More news coming soon! We're so excited to be expanding The Terminator lore in comics with brand new stories.
And I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that Dynamite has a project running for the big ComicTopia event right now on BackerKit. Check it out if you get a chance. Thanks!!

Project Update: Behind the Scenes: The Making of Star-Spangled Squadron
Today we're going to examine how it all comes together for Page 14 of the graphic novel.
Script
Pencils
But Mel Joy is very good at what she does, so she takes advantage of the framing of the scene to add depth and humor. See how Stiletto is in the top frame, but the heels of her boots extend towards the bottom two frames, where Dr Quantum and Aurora are in portrait? It's illustrated such that Stiletto's right foot is almost resting on Dr Quantum's head, while her left foot seems poised to stomp on Aurora's head. The characters, obviously, don't know they're in comic book frames, but we as the reader see the whole scene at once. (Those of you who have read Volume I can also see this sort of artistry at work on the very last page, with Stiletto gazing through the panel at American Eagle and his wife.)
Inks
Colors
Letters
I hope you enjoyed this walkthrough of "how the sausage gets made." This is only the second graphic novel I've written, so I am myself still learning the trade. I cannot tell you how many pages of my first script were sent back as "undrawable"! Fortunately, I have had excellent mentorship from David, who has teamed me up with top-tier professionals.
Let's finish off today's update with another daily poll....!
