Monthly Over-View December 2024 to January 2025

Swindle: December passes, and another New Year greets us! We’ve revealed a lot and have a lot planned for the New Year: monthly character polls, a new comic cover, and a couple of little personal treats; and at the end of it all we are standing pretty with a current pledge of  $2,565 and while we do know some of our big patrons are leaving soon, we do believe what we offer in the new year will attract new patrons to join the fun as we make our way towards our next goal of $3,300

Business Time: JANUARY IS PATRON COMMISSION TIME!!! Which means a majority of our focus will be on getting our lovely patrons’ commissions done, but we will still be including our other patrons with another free for all ATS questions, and debuting our newest feature, monthly character polls!

Explaining the Monthly Character Poll: We always wanted to offer more to our patrons who gave a little more but either weren’t interested in ATS’s or in getting a commission, especially after reaching our $2,200 Goal. So Knowingest and I thought we could introduce a little democracy and the chance to work on some characters that we might not get to work on in the near future, and so the monthly character polls were born! I think you’ll be surprised to see just who shows up outside of the usual suspects for voting and i’m excited to see who you will vote for! Now, Voting itself will be exclusive to Tiers Amethyst (10$) and above, but you are free to upgrade anytime, and, as explained below, your support ensures that we will be less dependant on commissions and high tier patrons in order to keep the lights on, as well as give us the time to dedicate more towards the comics you are here to enjoy. 

A reminder to all interested parties: after completing Primal Urges, we will begin work on Steven Universe Fervor Chapter 3, something we’ve been looking forward to just as much as y’all have!

Now, call to action time, the main reason we reached such a big goal is due to both consistent and new support from high and low tier patrons. It may be possible for us to drop below the threshold in the coming months as there are always financial difficulties, especially in the summer season but i mean it when i say every tier helps us achieve our goals and the more lower tier patrons we get, the less dependent we will be on the higher tiers to pay rent and keep the lights on and thus we’ll have more time to deliver to you the high quality comics you desire and deserve!

So to any free, former or current patrons that might be reading this, i just want to remind you that in order for the two of us to be able to focus on original comic ideas, we need any and all prospective patrons to please consider using the tiers they find affordable so that they can stay at CONSISTENTLY, which will mean more original comics for all of you!

So I implore each and every one of you to stick with us or recommend us to people you think will enjoy us, or even upgrade yourself if you so wish and I promise you won't be disappointed by what we have in store! Including the written version of Extreme Trick or Treating as well as other unreleased stories and scripts!

And a message for our "free" Members; If you could be so kind as to support us at even the lowest tiers of 3 or 5 Dollars in order to get early access to art or the WIPs, it would go SO far in supporting us and making sure we can more consistently focus on the comics we know you love. So please consider pledging whatever you feel most comfortable with, even if simply to help us grow

$2200 (REACHED As of 4/30/24): Will be able to release Written Stories of our future comics or ideas that we have.

$3300: Will be able to hire sketch artists to help production of comics along.

$4500+ : Will be able to consistently hire sketch/line artists to help make multiple comics and if we reach this goal, we can consider future goals for expanding into other media such as comic dubs with voice acting!

See pictures above for reference in distance to goals.

Unknowingest: We took some time to ourselves for the holidays, but between commissions, ATS questions, and the new monthly character poll, January is all about the people. I hope y'all will enjoy what we have in store for the new year. Let's make it a great one!

We here at Quartz Kings Comics are eternally thankful for our loyal and long staying Patrons, be sure to spread the word and spread the links far and wide. We welcome any and all support with open arms!
