Greatures merch update

Been thinking and trying more and more at the concept of Designing a Shirt that even I feel happy with. This time featuring our three favourite fellows from Greatures university! Plus an extra one? Maybe LP's Ghost Nose will be a patreon exclusive shirt order. But I'm happy with these designs and you might even see a preorder for them on Topatoco very soon.

As for the Book: I haven't worked on it in a week! The basic layout is done, I just need to go through it and clean it up, and add all da extra strips and art too. You won't see a preorder for that for a while, but we'll probably do a kickstarter or something. I just want to release it when it's done and printed, but I guess a preorder system doesn't hurt.

Been thinking of other possibilities for merch. I've been told those acrylic stands are fun, and that leaves some wiggle room for all the greatures and more. Maybe a Greature fighting game would be worthwhile, but I don't know how to code or make a good game. Just one of those long term goals, yanno?

Okay. There may be another Greatures this week. I gotta read a lot of mini comics for the Cartoonist Co-Op Minicomic Awards (I'm a judge for it!), but since I'm snowed the hell in here in New England, maybe there's time after all for some one-offs before #200. I just got a little thang planned for the occasion, another Sunday Special, but it'll take some extra drawing from me. Maybe I'll just do #200 now and get it out of the way.

Ah, but I'm rambling. Stay safe and warm if you're in the midst of this Nor'easter!

They're not really too much a fucking pain (unless a lot gets made), but I feel that will be a Phase 2 product launch. Right now, starting simple with some shirts and a book and maybe a secret third thing??? so secret, even I don't know what yet
