Hey Jumpers,
I hope everyone is doing well as the Summer wraps up. Here are some updates for you! Let me know if you have any questions on anything.
FULFILLMENT UPDATE
The books are headed your way! Physical fulfillment on The Jump #4 is now about 80% complete. The only thing we have left to contend with are the international orders (we have to use a different shipping service for those) and some of the more complex/"you grabbed a bunch of stuff" orders. But rest assured, everyone will have thier spoils in hand very soon.

We announced the whole thing in earnest a few weeks back at a big EVEL KNIEVEL blow out at San Diego Comic Con with Kelly Knievel (Evel's Son) and Joe Pennington from the Evel Knievel Museum.
This is going to be one hell of a book, guys - maybe the best we've ever done - and you are not going to want to miss it. BE SURE TO SIGN UP FOR LAUNCH NOTIFICATIONS NOW: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rylendgrant/evel-knievel-1-from-ringo-award-winner-rylend-grant

Hey Jumpers!
HUGE update for you here! BIG NEWS! Dig in and ENJOY!
THE BOOKS ARE HERE!
The physical books have landed at the Grant compound about a month earlier than expected!
The problem is I am currently in heavy prep for a BIG San Diego Comic Con next week, so I won't be able to do too much physical fulfillment before I leave and return.
But that's okay because...
DIGITAL FULLFILLMENT HAS BEGUN!
And it has begun a few weeks earlier than promised no less! You should have an email from Backerkit waiting in your inbox now containing instructions on how to retrieve the lion's share of your digital goodies, premium and otherwise.
The only things we still owe you are the PROCESS JUNKIES DREAM and the BONUS DIGITAL EXTRAVAGANZA... those are a bit more time consuming to put together, but we'll have them to you shortly after SDCC!
Oh, and SPEAKING OF SDCC...
.
It was announced by the folks at AIPT and Bleeding Cool this week that the team at Half Evil Comics will be bringing an official EVEL KNIEVEL comic book here to kickstarter THIS FALL!
We've turned the world's most amazing daredevil into an ass-kicking NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN-styple adventurer and you DON'T want to miss it!
We will be kicking the whole endeavor off at a rockin' mega panel at this year's San Diego Comic Con with Evel's son/the brand owner Kelly Knievel and Evel Knievel Museum Partner Joe Pennington. Here's all the info if you're going to be down there:

The comics are printed! Don't miss out on Fa Sheng: Origins!

Hey Jumpers,
Quick update for you as we head into the 4th of July holiday! Be SAFE this weekend!
THE COMICS ARE PRINTED!
I just got word from Comic Impressions that everything has been printed, packed up, and shoved out the door. I am scheduled to accept shipment of THE JUMP #4 on July 10th. SOME fulfillment will begin soon after... I say SOME because I will be receiving everything amid the run up to San Diego Comic Con where I have a very full schedule, where my company Half Evil Comics will be announcing a VERY exciting new licensed comic project.
Anyway, long-winded way of saying I'll be getting everything when I'm a bit swamped. We are VERY ahead of schedule on everything right now though and everyone will still receive their books before the original promised August delivery date.
If you are looking for some more great reading here on Kickstarter be sure to check out Issues 1-3 of the book I wrote of IMMORTAL STUDIOS:
Fa Sheng is a death-cheating, mind-bending Shaolin Master… but he carved a long bloody road to get there. Fa Sheng’s story begins in the latter days of the 19th century when the propaganda and carnage of China's Boxer Uprising force him to reevaluate his purpose in life, to dedicate himself to helping those in need. It isn’t easy. Between Fa Sheng and his path to enlightenment stand ruthless adversaries, backstabbing power grabbers and cowardly charlatans… any of whom would gladly dispose of anyone in their way.
In Fa Sheng: Origins #3, our hero takes the first true step on the path of healing. But healing, like kung fu, isn’t passive. It requires discipline. Stillness. Heart. And sometimes, the courage to stand up to your own pain... If you like Kung Fu, Warrior, Shogun, Shang-Chi, or Avatar: The Last Airbender, this series is for you.
FROM RYLEND: "In our book, the titular martial hero is forced through the meat grinder of the Boxer Rebellion, of China’s Warlord Era. He witnesses unspeakable evil, is dealt horrible defeat, but he rises, in the end, from the ashes of the carnage, a changed man, a better man, an enlightened man with a mission, deputized by the powers that be in the fight against all that Dharmically ails us. This isn’t just a Kung Fu book. There is something for everyone. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll be inspired. You’ll start asking big questions. Give it a read, huh?"
THREE HOURS LEFT to get Rylend Grant's THE PEACEKEEPERS here on Kickstarter!

Hey all,
It's now or never! You have just THREE HOURS LEFT to grab the latest issue of my comic book
THE PEACEKEEPERS on Kickstarter! It was a bit of a personal triumph getting this one made. It's the story I wanted to tell from the moment I got into comics. It took me years to bring it to life. I'm obscenely proud of it. And I'd really be grateful if you'd give it a look.
The project is fully funded and onto stretch goals! Now, each backer gets 18+ comics and a wicked print for just one pledge.
THE PEACEKEEPERS is a dark, quirky crime drama in the vein of
Fargo or
No Country for Old Men. It’s a love letter to case-a-season police dramas like
True Detective and
The Wire, to Elmore Leonard novels, and to comic masterpieces like
Criminal and
100 Bullets. Now tell me that doesn’t sound cool?
We're a Kickstarter "Project We Love!" The hippies are writing songs about us! COME SEE WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT!
PLEDGE HERE:
CLICK HERE TO PLEDGE NOW!
Thanks so much!
Rylend Grant
