Six hours, everyone.
Midnight tonight and we close the book on Issue #2 at 500% funded!
Thank you. All of you. For coming back, for bringing friends, for believing in this story a second time.
If anyone's still on the fence — you got six more hours.

Thank you, Charlie! Means a lot. Best of luck on the rest of your campaign too!
So proud of this comic! So proud of this team. So proud of this community that's come together around it. I cannot believe we've reached 500% funded on a 2nd issue. That never happens.
Thank you to everyone who's been part of getting us here.
Twelve more hours to go!
Two days left on the TIME SENSITIVE #2 Kickstarter.
Tomorrow night at midnight it's done.
300 hand-numbered Filipe Andrade foil covers. Gone when they're gone.

These Layout book reproductions from Jorge Coelho are stunning, an amazing view into his process — the closest you can get to sitting at his workbench as he draws.
Who's Dr. Dwight Higgs? Neurotic genius. Reluctant hero. The only one who can read the time map when everything's falling apart. — Time Sensitive Issue #2 has some new characters I'm dying for you to meet! And Higgs is my favorite.

The more of yourself you put into the work — your taste, your relationships, your family, your actual life — the more people want in. That's the lesson. Make it personal and mean it.

This is the takeaway: People don't back campaigns to 400% for the product alone.
They back the person.

No publisher would have greenlit my cousin's comics debut as a stretch goal. I did it because I could — because her work earned it — and because this is what independent comics looks like when you actually make it personal.

Nicole works in colored pencil at a photorealistic level that makes your jaw hit the floor.
She's also my little cousin in her comics debut!
Every other cover in this series is by an amazing art star from the comics world. Nicole comes from fine art. And she's family. That's not an accident.

Time Sensitive #2 just hit 400% on Kickstarter! Let's talk about what this Stretch Goal says about what works in a Kickstarter campaign.
This is a variant cover by Nicole Goldman, BFA-trained fine artist, two-time People's Choice Award winner, and featured in Colored Pencil Magazine.

I wrote a Location Based VR experience for Netflix's BLACK MIRROR. It launches in Montreal in May and was just covered in Variety and Hollywood Reporter.
Here's the moment I accidentally announced it on stage before it was public — and the CEO said "go ahead."

Man, gotta love that 80s nostalgia play in the music choice!
This is f**king cool cover, guys! And only ONE MORE DAY to grab one for yourself.
Check out this cool weekend bundle. We got Igor Wolski's cover back for just one last weekend — and it's going fast.
It's a beauty!
Thank ya, George!!!
We just hit 350% funded. — To celebrate: Six original Jorge Coelho pages just dropped as reward tiers at $350.
And NOW, each comes with the full Collector's Bundle — that's ALL the variant covers — for FREE!!
Only 6 original art pieces. And going fast.

Building an audience in indie comics means earning EVERY SINGLE reader. One of our backers picked up Issue #1— and had to write to say he'd made it 4 pages before he backed Issue #2. : )
A comic panel doesn't just arrive. It's built. Watch a single panel from Time Sensitive #2 move through every stage — Jorge's layouts, inks, colors by Sarah Stern, letters by Micah Myers. Three artists, four stages.
TS2 is live on Kickstarter now!

Two great comic artists that go great together!
Got some BIG NEWS coming Friday. The big Stretch Goal when we hit 400% funded is a FIFTH collectible variant cover.
This one has a very special story. It's an artist I'm very close to. And she's an absolute genius at hyper-realistic graphite portraits.

300% funded. Seven days. 397 backers.
Made a quick video because I didn't know what else to do with this feeling. Thank you all.

Love seeing these two great editions of Time Sensitive #2 together — absolutely packed with extras and goodies!
Delighted to see two great editions of TIME SENSITIVE #2 together. THIS is how you collect a kick-ass comic.
Love this!
Jorge Coelho, Igor Wolski, and I are hanging out live in the Strange Land Lounge on Discord TONIGHT at 7pm ET.
Cameras and mics are open. No ticket required. No agenda. Just a real conversation with the people making this book.
Everyone is welcome — feel free to share this.

Polish artist Igor Wolski built this cover from scratch and I can watch his process video forever!
Be sure back TIME SENSITIVE #2 before Thursday 3/9 @ midnight — because after that, this cover disappears forever and I genuinely don't want that for you.

Absolutely planned it this way! : )
