You send in System-like images you find in the wild, I post them. Send them to systemcomic at gmail.

This first one is from Systemic Tom, though as far as I know he did not create the image just captured it. Still pretty cheeky.

Next from Systemic Allison is a greeting card gone wrong (or right?). If those were my characters, one of them would be complaining about tuition.

And finally, one from Systemic (and longtime friend) Rachel who writes:

While I was in Russia I saw this awesome sign outside the restaurant we ate lunch at and thought of you (and your comic).

So, there you go. Did I mention there’s a Kickstarter? You should support it.

Don’t worry, the cat is okay.

Kickstarter Will Be Shoved In Your Face Until Preorders Improve

Still happening! For just $10 you get a digital copy of the book, and for $25 you get the book and, if we raise another $800 or so, a poster AND a digital copy of the book. To be honest, I’m so busy at work I haven’t had much time to shout to Reddit, BoingBoing, and wherever else I can think of about the project so if you have a chance to share it on the forums, blogs, and social medias you visit I would consider that as much of a gesture as supporting it with money. Please and thanks!

I also just added a new reward level, for $40 you get 2 copies of the book. I’ve overdone it with the exclamation points today, but I’m pretty excited about that. Hope you are too.

There is a magical point where having more to do makes you more productive. But there’s also a point where you just give up. This is also known as the “Tetris principle”.

Kickstarter Off To A Great Start

We are well on our way with the Kickstarter to support the printing of comics 1-200 of The System into a book, and have started to announce some great stretch goals to help keep things moving. The larger the amount we raise, the better the stretch goals!

You can check out all the stretch goals, all the rewards, and a hilarious outtakes video of me trying to record the “explanation video”, all right here.

I wanted to do something special for comic 666, so I made it about the scariest thing I could think of. Finding out your parents are Juggalos.

Holy Crap A Book of Comics

In much bigger news, it’s time for a Kickstarter! Here’s me telling you about it:

In short, here’s the basics:

• The first 200 comics
• With an introduction by Kris Straub
• With commentary mostly by Rossmom (my mom)
• Some commentary and insights by me
• Over 120 pages
• Some other neato prizes to go with it!

For more info on the project, head on over to the Kickstarter and support things. Every dollar counts, and sharing helps a whole lot! Here’s another widget thing:

So great news! The Kickstarter campaign for book 1 of the comics got approved, which means it launches probably TOMORROW. Stay tuned.
