Merry Christmas and an even shittier New year!

Alright guys.
Fist off, we got some new holiday items are the Merch Store (public) here: https://new-age-ninja-corps.myshopify.com/collections/holiday-stuffs

Secondly, and the part I’ve been dreading to update everyone on, so I’m just gonna be honest here. The money we were trying to get back from Patreon in regards to that whole merch cluster fuck... well we're not getting it back. Which sucks. But ya know more our problem than yours. We've done what we've can to mitigate shit and make sure things are still moving and shipping. But, as they say best laid plans never survive yadda yadda. If you're not sure what we're talking about see this short vid I made on the matter for transparency's sake: https://youtu.be/D75NdT5txo4
So, what this means is, 1) We'll have enough to pay for Luigi to continue work....barely
2) We're going to have to creatively ship things out between February and March.
3) I've already tapped what emergency funds I had to cover the period where this happened, and I'm going to need to be creative again on making this work. More than likely I’ll be using my tax money to fill in the gaps.

Also, all the inks are done for Issue 6.
All the lettering is done for issue 6
But the colors is what we're waiting on. And because Our colorist is ghosting us (yes they’ve been paid), we're going to have to tag in AP. Which means that the AP retail version is going to be MUCH different than the Patreon version. Which I guess is neat, but whatever.
When it rains it pours… I guess.
Onto some better news, those who were searching for that Mad Mori version 2 Cover you can find it here: https://indyplanet.com/rags-mad-mori-2 this’ll be live until Feb of next year.

Discord is getting a server reset starting DEC 1st which starts the Operator’s Gambit. Hop into Discord and see the rules.
 

Added some new Mods to the Mod team so now Discord should be much more friendly.
Merch Store is getting reworked and prepped for next year so this’ll be the last month to grab stuff.
 

We’ve added Calendars and some metal prints that are going to be store exclusives.
 

So check out the Normal Store front for now. Next year we’ll be added exclusive stuff to Tier1’s, then the Normal Patreon store front before the public store front gets gear. We’re looking at a Lewd Calendar for later.
 

Meanwhile, I have successfully created a Manga-sized TPB…(if you’re in discord you’ve seen the pics.) I’m hoping to use this format to collect issues 0-7 (cheaper costs) and pushing that out to Operator’s sometime next year. And Hopefully it’ll go smoother than that TPB fiasco from the beginning of the year. This will include the prototype stuff that’s kinda fallen into limbo.
 

We’re also looking at creating an simple Art book that has all the covers.
 

One final thing. Yes we’re getting hosed by Patreon, but we’re not going to ask for money. You’re continued support and patience is honestly what keeps us going, so we’ll just find a way to make it work. We’ll keep you guys posted as this develops.
