Hey everyone,
We’re thrilled to let you know that we’ve officially started shipping Intergalactic Wrestling Federation #2 to all of our amazing backers! Over the next few weeks, you should begin seeing your reward packages arriving in your mailbox.
If you’ve moved or need to update your shipping address, please email us ASAP at [email protected], and we’ll make sure your package gets to the right place.
This project took much longer than we originally anticipated, and we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your patience and continued support. We’ve packed your reward boxes with extra goodies to show our appreciation and make up for the delays.
Over the past year, I faced a number of unexpected personal challenges—including a serious back injury and our family’s second move in two years—but we’re now in a stable, fully functional space dedicated to producing and fulfilling projects. With that foundation in place, we’re committed to making sure future campaigns are handled faster and more efficiently.
Moving forward, we’re launching exciting new titles like Morbid Fantasy Magazine and The Pit: The Art of R.L. Black—and planning new entries in the Ethos series and IWF #3, which is scheduled for this October. Our goal is to make IWF a bi-monthly series starting in late-2025.
We’re so proud of Issue #2—an oversized, retro-styled, action-packed book that we truly believe is our best work to date. Thank you again for being part of this journey. We’re grateful for your support and can’t wait to share what’s next.

Hey everyone!
We’re thrilled to let you know that the printed copies of Intergalactic Wrestling Federation #2 are arriving this week from the printer (Wednesday, June 4)! That means we'll be prepping and shipping out your rewards very soon. You—our amazing backers—will be the first to receive the book, well before it's available anywhere else.
This oversized issue is packed with over 60 pages of intergalactic chaos, sci-fi wrestling action, and behind-the-scenes “making-of” content that showcases the process behind bringing this book to life. We can't wait to get it into your hands!
For those who missed the Kickstarter, IWF #2 is now available for order through the Vantage Comics website. Feel free to share the link with your friends and fellow comic lovers who want to jump into the madness.
Thank you again for your support and patience during this journey. Stay tuned for another update once shipping officially begins!

Hey everyone,
We’re excited to let you know that Intergalactic Wrestling Federation #2 is officially off to the printer! The book is scheduled to arrive the first week of June, and we can’t wait to get it into your hands.
This is no ordinary comic—IWF #2 is an oversized edition packed with over 60 pages of artwork, story, and exclusive bonus content. In addition to the main feature, we’ve included a behind-the-scenes look at the creative process, from script to inks to final colors, offering you a deep dive into how the book came together.
All add-ons are now in production as well! The exclusive trading card decks are taking a little longer to manufacture and will be shipped separately once complete. All other physical rewards—including prints, stickers, and bookmarks—will be fulfilled together with the books in June.
📦 ETHOS Update:
For those of you who ordered print bundles from Vantage or physical copies of Ethos: Heroes Lost, we’re also rolling out a brand-new variant cover! This updated cover features a digital watercolor design and will now serve as the official cover going forward. It’s a beautiful upgrade for a one-of-a-kind indie comic.
We’ll be back soon with more news—including a full shipping update as soon as all materials begin going out.
Thank you again for your patience, your support, and your love for indie comics. We’re almost there!

As a special thank you, we’ll also be including a few extra freebies for all backers—just a small way to show our gratitude for the love you've shown this campaign. Stay tuned for more details on that very soon.
