Kaor!
Time on Barsoom is running out, for Phaidor and her mission to save the dying red world, and for you to support her campaign!
The campaign has crossed the $10k mark as well, which means that anyone receiving a Deluxe PDF will also get my 32 page Barsoomian sketchbook included for free. (And almost everyone is getting the Deluxe PDF.)
The sketchbook will also have a print version, and if you'd like to receive that, as well as a Phaidor sticker and print, you only need to add the $1 BONUS Rewards add-on. It helps to keep pledges from getting cluttered up.
Searching for a new home for all Barsoomians, Phaidor and her court travel deep beneath the surface, to the very Heart of Mars!
A 48 page, NSFW B&W magazine size adventure, QoM #4 is fully written, drawn, inked and lettered by Mick Beyers, with a cover from Mick with colors by Fin Cramb, and a varaitn cover by Jarbas Noguiera. Facing new enemies and forging new alliances, Phaidor must survive the most dangerous place in Barsoom, it's heart!
Welcome back to Barsoom, or as we of earth call it, Mars!
The next book in Phaidor's saga to save a dying world is titled 'Heart of Mars' and sees the Queen of Therns journey deep into an unknown world. Joined by her princess, Isdar, and other companions, Phaidor is searching for a new land for the people of dying Barsoom to call home. But once she's found this new refuge, can she tame it?
Queen of Mars 04 is an all-new 48 page, B&W NSFW magazine adventure. Written, drawn, and lettered by Mick Beyers, with a variant cover by Jarbas Nogueira.
The Other Spoils of Barsoom
In addition to the brand new adventure, lots of other rewards are on offer. Original art, original pages, extra books from the McComics library and more are available during the campaign.
Thank you one and all for your support of Queen of Mars! This series/story is a real passion project for me, a love letter to the adventures I read growing up, and the comics I've always wanted to create. These books wouldn't exist without you, and I hope you'll support this next chapter in Phaidor's story!

So it (March) Begins!

I'm gonna be all over Kickstarter in March, with three projects going live, and the first of these, launching today is Mercy: In Prison!
Written by Steven Prince (MONSTER MATADOR), with art by Mick Beyers (QUEEN OF MARS) and colors by Alex Zief (MONSTER MATADOR, CARMILLA). The 24 Page one shot, MERCY: IN PRISON journeys back to 1975 and follows MERCY HANSEN, a happy-go-lucky farm girl from Wisconsin who gets sent to a Philippines prison after getting caught with a brick of China White in her travel bag. Of course, she didn't put it there. That darn English prick Richard Hawthorne III did and she wants to get out of prison to get her revenge. Only problem is that she's not the only one out for revenge... and she'll be lucky to survive!
I've drawn two versions of the cover (SFW and NSFW) and the really cool part is they'll be a lenticular version of the book where you can get both versions of my cover in one book! It's a really fun effect.
Also available are great covers from Andrea Dailey, Suspiria, and the man himself, Steven Prince (with the original art for that cover available.)

Kaor!
Digital files were sent out today! Check your email, Inbox, Junk, Spam, Promotion, Social, all the places. Digital rewards are distributed by BackerKit and I'd had issues with those being filtered to out of the way boxes.
Please let me know if you can't find them, and I'll get replacements sent.
Books are at the Printer!
Proofs were approved earlier this week, so looking to have them in hand early January. I'll get them checked for quality and errors, and start shipping them out.
