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
Wide panel. Pan across each of the students describing the music.

Manjula: It was – very faint at first.

Second student: It seemed to grow almost organically out of the background, the wind noise.

Heinrich: After a while, you could not ignore it. It seemed to demand attention.

Fourth student: Sometimes, it wasn't only music. There were also, uh, voices.

Fifth student: But always vague, and ethereal.

Irina: Not all of us heard voices.

Seventh Student: But we did all hear the same music.


Panel 2
Angle shot so we see Reggie in the background left, and Fourth Student and Heinrich (from behind) in the right foreground.
Reggie: Waitaminit. How do you know it was the same music?

Fourth student: Heinrich and I both have musical backgrounds. We each transcribed the music we heard ...

Panel 3
Medium close-up of Reggie, reacting in shock to what the student is saying.
Fourth student: When we compared notes, we saw they were virtually identical.
