On Their Way....

This is a message for the IGG QV9 backers! For those of you who ordered physical perks, they are on their way via USPS. For those of you who selected one or more of the PDF perks, you should have received an email from DriveThruComics.com. That email contains links to the vouchers you need to download your copy of the PDF you requested.

If you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check your spam folder. If you still can't find the email from DriveThruComics, let us know and we'll get the links you need.

Signing and Shipping

Scott has finished autographing all the books, and we've started shipping them out. Your physical perks should show up in the next week or so (might be a bit longer for international shipments). We expect to send out vouchers (via email) to those who wanted the PDF e-books.

Once again, many thanks to our backers. Stand by for further updates.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Tall panel. Let's have another exterior of The Little Prince, with the planetoid centered on the lower third-line, and we see much of the enclosing air skin but it's cropped a bit on the sides. Space above for caption boxes.

Caption: On a planetoid of surprises, the richest man in the world explains chimeric food sources.

Tobi (from planetoid): I have brought the best genetics minds together here on the Little Prince and put them to work on the problem

Panel 2
The now-familiar patio scene with the Guzmán brothers and Tobi. The food tray is almost empty. Tobi is still holding court.

Tobi: The need is very real. On Earth, genetically modified foods have been banned and genetic research funds have dried up.

Panel 3
Medium shot of Toby, gesticulating with one of the last little mini-sandwiches from the food tray as he makes his declaration.

Tobi: Conventional animal production is way too resource-intensive for 90-some percent of the world's population.

Tobi: Well, I'm going to change all that
