Hello Awesome Backers:
Thank you so much for your tremendous support. It means the world to me. In the meantime, we have made our 4th Stretch Goal, which means everyone who has pledged to a physical reward will receive a stainless steel bookmark with the image of Tesla's Experimental Station on it. Our next stretch goal is to upgrade it to a copper finish. Here is the proof from the manufacturer.
We are a third of the way there, so please keep sharing, posting, and tweeting and I'm sure we will make it. :)
If you didn't see the last update, I added a new "ADD-ON" of a set of three metal dirigible bookmarks in stainless steel, and copper and brass finish. They are limited. So, if you want them you better get them before they are gone. (Design by Alejandro Lee.)
WONDERCON
I will be at WonderCon in Anaheim this coming weekend (Small Press - 93). Please drop by and say hi if you plan on being there. :)
Don't forget to check out these other amazing Kickstarters that are going on right now before you go.

Hello Awesome Backers:
I'm thrilled to announce that we blasted through Stretch Goal #3, which means everyone who has pledged to a reward will now be receiving a total of twelve (12) digital bonus comics!
Our next goal is really special. It is a 1.5 x 4" STAINLESS STEEL BOOKMARK ETCHED WITH TESLA'S EXPERIMENTAL STATION. If we make this goal, everyone who has pledged to a physical reward will receive one (1).
(Proof of concept. Actual bookmark may vary slightly.)
If you were with us for our last Kickstarter, you'll know how cool they were. For reference, here is the dirigible from the Vol. 2 Kickstarter. (Note: It will be available in Backerkit.)
The next stretch goal will be to upgrade the bookmark to a copper finish. (And yes, I'm putting together new Boston Metaphysical collectibles just for you!)
