Hello ghosts and ghouls! 👻
Books should be in the shipping process at this time if you purchased either standalone or with patches! Some of you should start to see these arrive to you shortly.
If you were interested in visiting Either NY or PA in early April once your books arrive, Sage is also going to be available at both of these events!:

We would love to see you there potentially to get your books signed! 🍷 (or to maybe buy a second copy for a friend you'd love to meet up with in hell 👻)

Project Update: Wine Ghost Goes to Update!
To all of you: Hello!
On to updates!:
The books, as you have seen on social media, are available at this time standalone. Your books as backers, which may be being paired with patches or sent alone, are currently in transit to White Squirrel for fulfillment. These are going to be paired with their patch that is already waiting for it there, and shipped out immediately as soon as they are available.
Bookplates are soon to start their printing process. Once they get over to us, Sage will be visiting us in Chicago to sign them, and then the posters will head off to White Squirrel. Once they get here, if you backed that, this will be paired with your book and sent out as soon as possible.
As for the vinyl figures we are currently waiting to hear from the manufacturer on molding and casting times, and once we have further information another update will become available.
I will make an attempt to update here as well when these shipments happen. Thank you all again for your patience!

Project Update: Book production is done!
Heya, folks! After a bit of a slowdown during the holidays, the books have been printed and are finally in the U.S.! Right now, they're on their way to our distributor's warehouse in Tennessee. Once they get there, the distributor will send the inventory for the crowdfund to our fulfillment company in Washington. From there, the books will be shipped out to backers at last!
Thanks for your patience, everybody!

Project Update: Wine Ghost Goes to Hell Progress Update (October)
Hello! I’m Amanda L., an editor, social-media manager and jack-of-many-trades at Iron Circus Comics. I’ll be sharing updates to various ICC projects from here on out, aiming to give y’all at least one update per month – more if behind-the-scenes updates progress quickly enough to warrant them.
WINE GHOST GOES TO HELL books are being printed right now, and once they reach our fulfillment partner’s warehouse we’ll be able to give an ETA on shipping. Attached below is a production sample from the printer, to give y’all a sample of what it will look like!

Also in pre-production are the patches and posters. The patches are requesting quotes and materials, and the posters are also getting quotes from some specialty printers due to their unique qualities (black-light reactive inks, velvet flocking). We’ll share samples of those as soon as we have them as well!
Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to bringing you regular updates and behind-the-scenes sneak peaks!

Project Update: WHAT'S GOING ON? A Wine Ghost Update!
Heya, folks. Spike here, getting everyone up to speed on Wine Ghost Goes to Hell.
Due to an unanticipated personnel turnover at Iron Circus, a lot of things got derailed. a LOT. For months, multiple. And as a result, a lot of the titles we had in production got put on hold.
But I'm pleased to report things are back on track, and the book is due in warehouse in 8-to-10 weeks. From there, we can send it to our fulfillment partners at White Squirrel, and finally, FINALLY get them out to you.
I definitely should have done a better job keeping you folks in the loop, and I apologize for that. For a lot of the last couple of months, we've been arranging things so that a gap like this won't happen again. All I can do is apologize, and hope I haven't burned too many bridges with my radio silence.
I'll be in touch again in a month or so, to confirm what I've typed here.
If you have any questions about the project, please email [email protected].
Thank you again, and apologies again. It's been a weird year.

Project Update: 50% FUNDED: Come see the Wine Ghost Add-Ons!
Hey, all! Spike from Iron Circus Comics, here!
Thank you so, SO much for getting Wine Ghost to 50% funded (and BEYOND)! We love this graphic novel, and can't wait to share it with you.
With the crowdfund half-completed, we've made a few changes to the backer levels, and introduced some Add-Ons! This is a brand-new Backerkit feature to us, and we hope it really contributes to the project.
To add these add-ons to your pledge, click your backer level! The page to add Add-Ons will show up before the pledge summary!
Next: Embroidered Patches! We've NEVER offered these on a crowdfund before!
Working with our old pals at True Metal Works, We'll be offering a 5" x 3" embroidered patch, suitable for bags, jackets, and wherever else you may see fit to stick it. Show the world that, if nothing else, you have the affection and admiration of your dead drunk pal in Hell. These will be $10!
And finally... our BIG REVEAL.
THE WINE GHOST BLACKLIGHT POSTER!
Lurid! Eye-searing! GLOWY. This 11" x 17" poster of Wine Ghost on the town features blacklight-reactive, fluorescent ink and velvety, black flocking. It is just so COOL, and we can't wait to get it made. For $25, it can be yours!
And by request: We've added a "Buy Wine Ghost a Drink" backer level. This is for folks who want to help bring the Wine Ghost GN into the, er, Underworld, but would like to pass on any rewards, physical OR digital. The amount is customizable, and starts at $1.00!

Wine Ghost's crowdfund ends in just TWO WEEKS, and we would love your support! Please consider backing, and spread the word about Sage's strange little graphic novel. We can't do this without your help!
