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, narrow panel: Two-shot of the Brothers, standing almost nose to nose.
Ernie: Now, if we could just …
Bert: Get to Dactyl? So how could we do that …
Ernie: Our jetpacks?
Bert: Nope, too slow, not enough fuel …
Ernie: Even if one of us used both packs?
 
Panel 2
Wide, narrow panel. Bert waxes professorial.
Bert: Sorry, 'too slow' means that even if there were enough fuel – which there isn't – the packs have such a measly delta-V, it would take a decaday or more to get there and that's less time than we have in these suits.
Bert: So what are we missing?
 
Panel 3
Tight 2-shot of the Brothers, both staring inwardly, thinking.
No dialog.
 
Panel 4
Same shot, but Ernie suddenly speaks up
 
Ernie: How about you shoot me to Dactyl with the mass driver?
