Latest Updates from Our Project:

STRETCH GOAL #4 UNLOCKED!
over 4 years ago – Sat, Nov 13, 2021 at 08:45:37 AM

GUEST ART GALLERY UNLOCKED!

You howled and now we finally get to answer: the Guest Art Gallery has been unlocked! 

Thank you all so much for your incredible suggestions on who you'd like to see take on the legend of the Wifwulf - suffice to say, we're hugely excited to invite some amazing artists into the fold. 

With that said, we'd love to announce our second guest artist: J. Parks!

J is an incredible artist, famous for their beautiful and loving renderings of animals across the spectrum. They've also been a friend to the Wifwulf team from the very beginning and their support has meant the world to us. Since they were already part of the pack, it only made sense to bring them into the fold officially! Welcome, J. Parks!

NEXT STRETCH GOAL ANNOUNCED (KINDA!)

We honestly had no idea we'd make it this far - so we'll be honest: we didn't have a $50K stretch goal planned! But in an amazing turn of events, it looks like Vault had an idea of their own! Check out this tweet from Vault Publisher Damian Wassel:

Don't you want to find out what this means? WE DO! Let's howl and get this book to a previously-thought-impossible $50K by tomorrow morning and we'll see what incredible printing magicks our friends at Vault have in store!

NEW ART FROM DAILEN'S DESK!

Another live session on Twitch, another incredible piece of art for the Our Lady of Bloodied Teeth tier! And it's not even finished yet!?

There are still five of these left on our campaign - so if you just can't help yourself, head over to Kickstarter and make a pledge at the Our Lady of Bloodied Teeth tier to get your own original ink drawing from Dailen!

And in the meantime, if you just wanna help spread the word, Dailen's got another side to their artistic genius: MEMES! See below some of our favorite WIFWULF memes for your use on this here internet!

HANG WITH THE PACK!

Yesterday, we took to Instagram Live - hosted by Vault Comics - to talk about WIFWULF. Wanna see Dailen, Jackson, and Jazzlyn just be loopy and excited as we await the $45K unlock? Then this IGTV is for you!

WATCH IT HERE!

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

We are continuously overwhelmed by the amazing support and fellowship of this pack. Thank you all for your voices, for your time, for your funding, and for your trust. We cannot wait to provide a book worthy of you.

WIFWULF is what it is, now, because of each of you. 

Howling for you,

Dailen, Collin, and Jackson

44 HOURS LEFT! LET'S HOWL!
over 4 years ago – Sat, Nov 13, 2021 at 06:49:50 AM

THE FINAL HOURS ARE UPON US!

After four weeks of absolutely incredible enthusiasm from the WIFWULF pack, we are now in our final two days of funding! Our backers got an exclusive look at new full pages from Dailen's desk in our last update - so if you're a new backer, make sure to check out the last update for those amazing new pages!

We've got some fun updates for you below the fold, including an EXCLUSIVE ANNOUNCEMENT of our first potential guest artist! So let's get started!

STRETCH GOAL #3 UNLOCKED!

You did it! You unlocked our $40K stretch goal - meaning the whole creative team was able to give ourselves a small raise! It means so much to us to have such incredible direct support from the pack - and we owe it all to you. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

Our next stretch goal is $45K, where we'll unlock our GUEST ART GALLERY! Keep reading for an exclusive reveal about that goal below!

WIFWULF IN THE PRESS

We've had some wonderful opportunities to talk to friends in the press and spread the news about WIFWULF - and you should check them out for more info on the project! 

GATECRASHERS, one of our very favorite podcasts, welcomed Dailen and Jackson to talk all things WIFWULF. The conversation got deep and personal - learn how Jackson's druidic teenage years shaped the man he is today! - but also had time to ask Dailen about what their favorite sandwich is. A fun and freewheeling talk that you'll enjoy listening to about as much as we enjoyed recording it.

LISTEN AT THE LINK!

We also sat down with The Beat to talk all things WIFWULF and especially to get into the process of working with our new publishing partners at Vault. Get the perspective from Collin, Dailen, and Jackson at the interview below!

CHECK IT OUT HERE!


ANNOUNCING OUR FIRST GUEST ARTIST!

We are now only three thousand dollars from our $45K stretch goal: a GUEST ART GALLERY! 

So we figured it was time to give you a glimpse at the kind of thing you'll see in that new section of the book, if we're lucky enough to reach that goal before Saturday morning! With no further ado, we're honored to reveal our very first guest artist for WIFWULF...

HELEN MASK!

Helen is one of Dailen's art heroes and we are honestly so honored to have her join the pack! Help us unlock that 45K tier today so we can guarantee that Helen's amazing art will grace the pages of WIFWULF!

CHECK OUT PLANEBREAKER!

One of our very favorite game designers, the legendary Monte Cook, is currently running a kickstarter for his new product: PLANEBREAKER! It's an incredible new sourcebook for Dungeons & Dragons 5e that that presents you with the wonders, terrors, mysteries, and treasures of dozens and dozens of new alternate worlds—plus the inexplicable Planebreaker itself. It includes a bestiary of planar creatures and new planar class options for players to their campaigns, as well as new subclasses, feats, spells, and player character species options.

It looks incredible and - if Monte's boundless imagination is any indication - it should be a blast for old and new players alike.

THANK YOU AGAIN!

We'll never be able to thank you enough for your support. This project has become a dream come true - all thanks to this incredible pack. Keep howling with us - we've only got two days left!!


Peering at you from the darkness, smiling with sharpened teeth,

Dailen, Collin and Jackson

ONE WEEK LEFT TO HOWL!
over 4 years ago – Fri, Nov 12, 2021 at 06:17:54 PM

WE'RE IN THE ENDGAME NOW!

With one week left, WIFWULF is heading into the final stretch of our campaign! You've all supported this project beyond our wildest hopes - and now we're looking to make that big final push! So...

 ... LET'S UNLOCK SOME STRETCH GOALS!

Our goal now: to get this project to $45,000 - the threshold at which we can afford to produce a guest art gallery for inclusion in the book! Want to see some of your favorite artists take on the Wifwulf? This is how you make it happen. How? It's simple: just increase your pledge or help bring new members to the pack in the next seven days to help push us over the line.

We still have a few higher tiers available - original art by Dailen! Original stories by Jack and Collin! A workshop for your own story with the Hivemind! Treat yourself!

Need some help inducting your friends into the pack? Let Team WIFWULF help! We all sat down with Comic Book Yeti to talk all about the book, our history as a team, and why it's worth backing!

You asked and we've answered! Presenting four INCREDIBLE desktop and mobile backgrounds for your myriad devices - all featuring art by incredible series creator Dailen Ogden. You can download them all for free at the link below!

HOWL FOR SOME OTHER GREAT CAMPAIGNS!

In the beginning, superheroes were all about one thing: Protecting the little guy, gal, or nonbinary pal. But somewhere along the way that got lost, as capes transformed from populist defenders of the working class to glorified supercops. Enter BEEF BROS, a revolutionary, leftist take on superheroes by Aubrey Sitterson (No One Left to Fight, The Comic Book Story of Professional Wrestling) and Tyrell Cannon (Eris, Speculative Relationships).

Honestly, Beef Bros is one of those comics that just brings us automatic joy - a truly delightful and aspirational take on superheroes that reminds us why these characters exist in the first place. The energy, the positivity, the unabashed leftist politics - it all makes Team WIFWULF smile. Aubrey and Tyrell somehow get better with every page. And they've got a whole new graphic novel ready to fund! Help them out and give those bros some BEEF!

BACK BEEF BROS HERE

From the creator of RUINWORLD and BOT-9 comes a new Graphic Novel from Derek Laufman. The Witch of Wickerson is a twisted dark fairytale described as the SECRET OF NIHM meets ATTACK ON TITAN, about a Witch who terrorizes a community of small animals. What started as a page-a-day challenge for Inktober 2021, this haunting tale will be collected into a Hardcover book with the help of Kickstarter supporters!

This one seems like an automatic buy for most WIFWULF fans - and we think you should check it out. Derek's style is truly delightful and his take on witchy horror is sure to be incredible. Plus, they've already funded well beyond their goal - so you're sure to get some incredible stretch goals if you dive in now!

BACK THE WITCH OF WICKERSON HERE

ONE WEEK LEFT TO HOWL!

Truly, we are so honored to have such an incredible pack backing this story.  With one week left to go, we want to make this seven days to remember. Help us share the page, howl out to your friends and family, and enjoy the free wallpapers! Next week... the campaign ends... and the story begins.

Howlin' for you,

Dailen, Collin, and Jackson.

FULLY FUNDED!
over 4 years ago – Mon, Nov 08, 2021 at 01:53:29 PM

We're going to keep this pretty short and sweet: thank you. 

In one single day, you've brought this book to life, and we are floored--humbled, thrilled, blown away--by your reception. Our pack has rallied, bigger and louder than we could have imagined. 

And it's not over yet! Stay tuned for stretch goals, and watch as we bring you the best book we can physically make. We have 29 days left to celebrate, and we plan to make the most of them. 

Again, from the bottom of our hearts: thank you.
