Hello White Ashians,

Happy Saturday.  We just wanted to pop in and give you one last shipping update.  

If you live in the United States, you should have your rewards by now.  If you don't, please contact us ASAP so we can track down where they're at.

If you live outside the United States, they are on their way.  The last 10 international packages are going out Monday morning.  Everything else has shipped.  If you don't have your rewards in the next 3 weeks, please shoot us a DM and we'll try and track them down for you.

We apologize for the delay in getting the last batch of international rewards out.  The printer put us about three weeks behind our anticipated schedule.  We’re going to strive to be more on schedule before we launch Chapter Five this summer. We appreciate the patience and support of all our backers. A series like this is built on your word of mouth.  

And speaking of word of mouth, please tell your friends that we have 4 DAYS LEFT on our Kickstarter for the White Ash Hardcover.  This is shaping up to be an amazing book.  The new story that Conor drew for it looks incredible and the pin ups that are coming in are truly something special. 

Thank you again, we hope all of you are enjoying White Ash.

We couldn't do any of this without you,

Charlie, Conor and Fin (AKA Team Ash)

The shipping is almost done!

Hello White Ashians,

Just wanted to give you a quick update on the shipping of your books.  We're nearing the finish line here and are getting the remaining few packages out the door.  Many of you already have your comics and have posted some amazing pictures online.  Thank you!  Your spreading the word of our little town is so incredibly helpful.  And the more people that move to White Ash and join our little community, the cheaper we can offer the books in the future.  

If you don't have your books (sorry), here's what you can expect...

DOMESTIC

All domestic packages should arrive by the end of next week.  If you don't have your books by Saturday, shoot us a DM and we'll track them down for you.

INTERNATIONAL

Hopefully you should have your books by the end of the month. Many of these packages are currently in route.  But as always, filling out the customs forms takes a little longer.  All international packages will be mailed by the end of next week.

THANK YOU

So many of you came and backed our current Kickstarter on day one and two.  We really appreciate it.  The 200 page Hardcover is now FULLY FUNDED and we're heading for stretch goals.  

The new back-up story we wrote for the Book is looking gorgeous and we thought you might appreciate a peek at the art from the first page.

 Thank you again. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have a question.

All the best from Team Ash.

White Ash: Volume One is NOW LIVE

Hello White Ashians,

Happy Monday.  Our Kickstarter for the Hardcover edition of White Ash: Volume one is NOW LIVE!

As a thank you to you, our returning backers, we've got some great day one discounts.  

Thanks again, we couldn't do any of this without you.

All the very best from Team Ash.

Shipping update, plus a few details about Monday's launch.

Hello White Ashians,

Hopefully many of you have now received your Chapter Four rewards.  As of this posting, 75% of all packages are in the mail.  We're working overtime to get out the last 25% and anticipate having shipped everything by the end of next week.  

If you ordered a sketch variant of the Chapter One cover, those are in the "still to be shipped out" category.  They took a bit longer to complete as Conor decided rather than do a quick scribble on the back of the book, that our backers deserved something more elaborate.  Like this...

Which I think we can all agree, looks incredible.  

If you didn't get one of these beauties, we well be reserving 5 of them to be part of one the tiers of our Kickstarter that's LAUNCHING ON MONDAY.

Now about that Kickstarter...

A lot of our backers had been asking us for a trade. In White Ash style, we wanted to make sure that we overdelivered.  So here are a couple of tidbits from Monday's launch.

  • It's a 200 page Hardcover. 
  • It has an ALL-NEW story that reveals a piece of White Ash's hidden history.
  • It has a dust jacket (Yep, we're classing up this book). 
  • It has an art gallery featuring some amazing artists take on White Ash.
  • and...

Early-bird pricing starts at $28.

This price, (a steal by Kickstarter standards) is our way of saying thank you to you, our returning backers. It will only be available for the first 48 hours of the campaign. So if you'd like a copy, we encourage you to come early.  We'd love to have the deals and the limited edition rewards go to  the people who have helped us build the White Ash world into what it is today.

Thank you again for all of your support.  We know we couldn't have done any of this without you. If you have any questions, please reach out.  We'll be back with more shipping updates soon, and will have a link for you to the Kickstarter after it launches on Monday morning.  

All the very best from Team Ash.

Shipping has begun! (also Hardcover alert)
about 5 years ago – Wed, Mar 06, 2019 at 05:33:04 PM

Hello White Ashians,

It has begun. The comics arrived this weekend. 

We here in White Ash have sprung into action. As of this posting, the first 150 packages have been mailed out. Some of you may even receive them this afternoon. We’re shooting for getting out an additional 50 packages everyday. If we can hold to this schedule, shipping should be done by early next week. And speaking of early next week…

On Monday, March 11th, we’re launching our next Kickstarter. 

We’ll be back on Friday with more details. But for now, hypothetically, if you were interested in a 200 page HARDCOVER of White Ash, collecting the first four issues, plus an ALL-NEW TALE exploring the history of our little mining town AND pin-ups by some amazing artists… you might want to circle that date on your calendar. (Especially if you like getting things on the cheap.)

But while we’re on the subject of hardcovers, there’s an amazing one on Kickstarter right now. A couple of weeks ago, comic book legends Karl Kesel and Tom Grummet launched SECTION ZERO 1959.

Charlie here. I was a day-one backer on this book. Billed as “Jack Kirby does the X-Files” this is a beautiful looking book, that’s not only has a killer story conceit, but it’s filled with pin-ups from some pretty famous artists, including:

Erik Larsen

Steve Rude

Ron Randall

Mike Alred

and…

Conor Hughes. 

That’s right, Conor’s going to be doing a pin-up featuring someone from White Ash, teaming up with Section Zero.  

So if you’re a White Ash completist, or just a fan of Conor, you’re going to want a copy of this book. But don't take my word for it, check out their campaign and I'm sure you'll see it was well worth the click.

Thanks again for all the support. We’ll be back with a shipping update on Friday. Till then, if there’s anything you need, let us know. Our backers are the best and we know that without you, there’d be no White Ash.

Have an amazing week!

All the very best,

Team Ash
