In the end we unlocked two regions for the travel guidebook: The Old Kingdom and The Dark Forest. Every backer will get a digital file with those regions, which will have some juicy new lore details.
Here's what's coming up:
-Daryl is finishing up the last pages of this issue. It's 50 pages long - that's no joke! I expect he will be wrapping up sometime this month.
-Once the art is done, Dave will finish lettering the comic (he has already lettered the first 24 pages). Then we will get the digital files and print files ready to ship off.
-Meanwhile, I'll be working on the travel guidebook chapters, which will include two new maps in addition to the world map, illustrated by Dave Swartz.
-I will be working on the pledge manager, which will go out around the time we have the digital comics ready.
-Once order numbers are confirmed and all the files are ready, I'll send the files to the printer. Printing for this project is somewhat complicated, as between stickers, trading cards, collector boxes, standard editions, and the Collector Edition, I'll actually be ordering from four different printers.
-Once all the rewards have arrived, I'll coordinate with my shipping team (that's me and two people who help me out on weekends sometimes) to get the packages out as quickly as possible! Currently I'm hoping for a December fulfilment, but that's pretty optimistic - it might be more like January.
Here's the last bit of news - this is not the end for Edward and pals. This is the last issue of Unicorn: Vampire Hunter, but the story will eventually live on. We will be doing a collected edition of Volume 2 next year, and we have other plans as well. Stay tuned - and thanks as always for your support.
Thank you everyone for backing and helping us bring this book to you.
We crushed our first stretch goal this weekend, so we'll be adding a lore drop to this campaign. Your votes are in, so we'll be visiting Talderra, the ancient Zymeran city built by a long dead god.
The next stretch goal will be at $6,000 and will add a new sticker pack to every physical pledge.
We had planned for 3 stickers, but our discord server convinced us to add a fourth design. (Speaking of, if you would like to join it and hang out, you can do so here: Join the Discord, Meet some Friends
We took the Kavan standee to Ocala Con this weekend and had a lot of fun taking photos with him. I think our friends and other con attendees had fun with him too!
To wrap up the week of previews/sneak peeks, I wanted to share the list of contributors who will be included in the print edition of the zine. All of the amazing contributors in this zine anthology are listed in the Story section of the campaign (including links to their social media or websites that they've shared); please check out the full list, along with more information on the campaign rewards, stretch goals, and Printopia event on the main page.

Vote below then ask a specific question in the comments! We will compile for Steve once we hit 500 backers - don't forget to share the campaign so we get there faster!
At 500 backers, Steve goes live for a backers-only Q&A. Send your questions ahead, then join the private stream and ask the follow-ups yourself in chat. Date announced after we unlock it. Also opens the Nexus Archive Wallpaper Pack as an add-on.
Goal: 500 backers reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!
Alright y'all 51% means we need to start think about celebration plans if this gets fully funded. I want to leave it up to you, my backers. So put your heads together and start talking about options. If you want me to do something crazy (within reason), do a challenge, commit to weekly lives and chapter readings ... whatever you can think up. I am now at the mercy of you guys! Only backers can commit, so if you want a say in this, go pledge!
