Would it be possible to start re-releasing on a 3rd party website without giving up any of your rights? Putting this on webtoons on a daily or weekly basis might generate hype for physical prints, especially if you don't have to pay for hosting. I'll admit I'm also one of those jonesing for a physical copy of the last volume.

I don’t have anything helpful to add, just wanted to say I continue to hope you find a way to print the Dr McNinja finale. Volume 1 (pre-McBonald) was the first comic I ever purchased and my collection is looking awful incomplete without the End.

Also in my Night Powers you sketched Boba Fett with a mustache on his helmet, back when Boba Fett was still cool.

Would a complete DIGITAL omnibus of Dr McNinja ever be possible? Something downloadable and therefore not subject to the whims of site hosts?

That's an option!

I would unquestioningly pay for a Complete Dr. McNinja, Digital Edition. Saves on shipping, too.

It's great to see you're keeping busy! It would also be really nice if we could get any kind of update on Draculagate? It's been over a year since your last update and it really sucks to be left hanging

I'm still drawing it! I do a little bit every morning, and then try not to look at how much more I still have left. I'll share more progress, but I have to be honest it was getting demoralizing that every time I wrote a KS update, someone would ask for a refund. I look forward to releasing it, not just to fulfill the promise to everyone who backed it, but also to get the chance to actually get the thing into stores.

Great to hear it's still on the way! I definitely understand how that would be discouraging, but there's still lots of us who are really looking forward to it - can't wait to read it

Maybe this is too personal, but it seemed like things were moving along really well last summer (you had been optimistic about an October 2022 release). Did something major happen? I'm sure most of the backers would be very supportive and want to see you succeed with this!
