this is where i tell you some fun stories.
so... here we are. my patreon.
i'll get right to the point. purpose of this whole thing is to help me finish the stories i always wanted to finish and have you enjoy them
patreon will consist of tiers through which you can support my work.
1 dollar tier will allow you to read Sunstone updates a week early and uncensored.
5 dollar tier will sponsor creation of other comics. these being, death vigil, teen Witchblade and ravine. 5 dollar tier comics will not be released anywhere else but hare until they are ready to go to print. once printed they will feature a personal thank you to all of you who have supported them.
anything above 5 dollars will get you into the bonus tier. this will get you high resolution printable images, it will also give you access to top secret stuff, work in progress stuff and even if you are interested early reading of my novel as well as some other slightly saucy stuff
i will not activate the patreon account until some time in april or may. i will post official announcements well before i do so there is no mistake.
once activated there will be at least 25 comic pages here monthly between the 2 tiered comics. there will likely be some other fun stuff as well.
so yeah. thank you everyone and welcome. get comfy cause 2019 will be one hell of an interesting year.

My hope for Ravine 3 is 3 years old now but still here.
I found your stuff on Deviant Art. Your artwork is superb and the plots of the comics have me wanting more. It will be a pleasure to support you on Patreon.
I am so happy that you decided to finally make a patreon. I have been waiting for you to do this since ... 2013/2014, I think. I believe your stuff is great and you deserve to receive regular and pretty solid amounts of cash for it (ALL THE MONEY!). Hope this works out really well for you.
Just wanted to let you know that since I discovered you a few years back, you've been such an inspiration to me! I adore your art style, and I adore all the work you've put into Sunstone. Looking forward to seeing what this year has in store!
I am so excited for all your work - especially Sunstone and Ravine!! Ahhhh I'm so glad you started this so I can support your work more.
Death Vigil and Teenage Witchblade are the ones I have my eyes on the most, especially Teenage Witchblade.
Yeah, more Teenage Witchblade and Ravine. I'm totally on board for that.
SO EXCITED!
Loved your art on deviant will be very happy to see more of it, hope this all works out for you.
So glad you are finally here! I have enjoyed your art for years, even before you started the Sunstone storyline. Glad to be able to support you in a way other then buying your printed books.
Thank you for all of your work, planning, artwork, story telling, etc... it is refined and amazing. I am happy to finally have the chance to support the beautiful work that you do... beyond just going to the comic book store. Welcome to Patreon.
Just impatient to see the following of Death Vigil!
Death Vigil! Twitch! Ravine! I had given up on Ravine! Whoop! Whoop!
The DA posts are censored?
I'm just so glad he mentioned ravine! That alone made me sign up, although sunstone is easily my guilty pleasure not gonna lie.
IM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW
So happy that we can help u make the comics u want to do. I hope it all turns out wellt for you.
Omg! You have a Patreon? YES!!! Now I can finally help my favourite artist create more of my favourite works :) and they won't die again! Take my money!!!!
Hey there i'm a "young" artist, aver in love with your work, i have a question, in the "other randoms" will be som tutorials o speed vids of you working ? ty.
it would be pointless as i stream quite often and for a tutorial all you need to do is be in a chat and ask what you are interested in. i constantly do on the spot tutorials :)
So happy you decided to do this so we can get more of our favorite characters! Finally got me to sign up for Patreon too.
After being burned on Kickstarter and just life in general, I never said I'd do this. You sir, have cracked my armor. More puns.
only the worst kind of puns here! XD
Excellent! Have joined at lowest level for now but hope to update it next year when things improve, because that is exactly what I want to be supporting!
I'm thrilled, Stjepan. I hope this project will bring you even more satisfactions and let you develop your favorite projects. Oh, and I really hope your story about Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn will find a good home here and flourish abundantly ^_^
More Ravine and Death Vigil? This was the easiest follow ever. Got me to finally make an account, too.
I’m so excited. I cannot wait until you’re up and running here.
I don't think I can give you anything less than $10 and feel like it's enough.
I feel the same way :) honestly, I think Tier 3 should be 10 USD.
I'm so glad you're going forward with this. I was relating to a friend just the other day after reading about the discontinuation of Death Vigil. Its not something I've followed myself, but its a tragedy to see an artist of your caliber have to give up on things they love. Never been a patron before but this was worth getting signed up for.
Is "Teen Witchblade" Switch?
yup. just rebranded for name recoginzability
I have a strong suspicion that Stjepan's (What I am calling) "Pipe dream" level is going to be met with a resounding chorus of "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!"
i am still too scared to let my optimism burn bright but damn if i don't want it to.
I am so excited you've finally made a patreon! I am definitely looking forward to see what you do!
I have been waiting for more Death Vigil since I discovered it after reading Sunstone. If $5 a month can help bring more of both into the world, I'm in. More Bernie, Sam and Clara! Mia and James! Ally, Lisa, Anne, and Alan! Cannot wait.
My hubby and I are more than set to support your highest tier twice. I manage my local comic shop and see how much you do in DC and Topcow, we love you're work so much just don't over do it and burn out. ♡♡♡ Now time to get Linda on here so she can work on Blood Stain too ♡♡♡
agreed! XD
Quick question, when you say you won't activate the patreon account until April or May, does that mean we won't get billed monthly until then or we will start getting billed from January but content won't arrive until April/May? I've pledged and am super excited, just want to know so I can manage my finances :)
you wont be billed until i activate it. from then on you will be billed for every month of me producign actual comic pages and posting them here until i decide to pause it because i'm done with a book and will take a month off or something like that. you're not paying me to chill and play videogames XD we're all here for the stories :)
<a href="https://youtu.be/usfiAsWR4qU?t=6" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Hallelujah</a> . Sunstone? YES! Death Vigil? YES YES! Twitch? HELL YES! Ravine OH MY GOD YES! and more*foams at the mouth with excitement*... Uh sorry about that, this is spectacular news, my support is guaranteed.
On one hand, YAY for more Ravine, Death Vigil, and Teen Witchblade. Just done burn yourself out. We're all here cause we want to see these stories continue, yes. But not at the expense of your health.
Gonna be totally honest, I'm only really interested in more Death Vigil, so sadly can't do $5 a month for just that :-( (plus in the UK, so I think I get charged VAT or summit) Sorry. Hope more Death Vigil makes it to print!!!!
There is some kind of tax on top in almost all countries :) I think that supporting here is definitely making it more likely Death Vigil will make it to print.
5$ ? Steal!
So excited to finally read more Death Vigil!
Ravine? Sold! So excited to be able to support you directly Stjepan!
This sounds interesting. This 'Teen Witchblade' - is that the Switch comic? Because I was really curious to see where that was going. In other news, I'm curious about the higher tier stuff. If it involves more of my favourite Sunstone couple, or perhaps some more of Poison Ivy and Harley, you have my interest.
teen witchblade is indeed switch, just rebranded into a more easily recognizable title. i won't be making other people's stuff here so no harley or ivy. jsut the stuff that i create or have a direct okay to do and post (teen witchblade)
Whelp, guess I made an account for this...
YES YES YES YES YES
On-board all the way. Coming from a comic store employee who tried his best to push your comics on everyone I know; it makes me profoundly happy to finally see more Death vigil, (your!) Witchblade, and everything else!!! I wish you the best of luck and all the success in the world. I will be here till the end either way. Gonna have to hunt you down someday at a con so I can thank you for your work in person :)
Awesome, can't wait to join the bonus tier.
I'm the least interested in teen switchblade but Sunstone and all other make me drooool!
Give me that Death Vigil and Ravine goodness
just updated my pledge to above 5 :) yay!!
Ravine!!
Just give me more ways to throw my money to you and I'll be happy to oblige.
Weeeee! So glad, that you gonna give this a shot! <3
Huge fan of all of your work. I am super excited to see what projects your going to be able to create with all of your Patreon supporters now. Maybe we'll get to see the Sunstone statue be resurrected.
Yessss... gonna go spread this around to friends :3
Hell Yes, so much good stuff!! Death Vigil, Teen (ultimate) witchblade, Sunstone, and more! So excited!
So happy this is finally a thing! After stumbling on your Wonder Woman art years ago, my human and I have become huge fans of all things Sejic :)
More Death Vigil, you say? Take my money, damnit! XD
So excited! Being a fan of Gotham City Sirens, my first exposure to your work was The Ivy Secret Origins issue you did. My husband showed me the panel where she is on the ground I was like :-O!! After that I found sunstone and I have been a fan ever since. I loved Switch, ravine and death vigil and happy to see it come back! April/May cannot come any sooner!!!
Incubus/Succubus comic please! (if enough support happens. Just let me know what to pledge for that haha) Looking forward to this! :)
This! :D I'd extra pledge Incubus/Succubus comic too :3
I'm in!
I'm totally in!
Seconding GhostPhil, looking forward to your lovely art!
This is the greatest thing i have ever read in the last 2 minutes
I look forward to it!
I can't wait for all of this! It is great that you decided to create a Patreon page :)
