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
Angle so we see the cockpit of the Novo Argo in the foreground, Reggie and Babbette standing on the dock in the background. Reggie is gesturing towards the poop-deck with the pilot's seat, which sits behind an old-fashioned ship's wheel, in turn behind a classically-styled binnacle, to which is attached a small, contemporary control panel.
The pilot's seat functionally looks something like this:

But in keeping with the whimsical look of this 'cute carrack,' give the chair a more suitable styling.
Reggie: Anyway, we don't actually drive Novo Argo.
Reggie: It has an A.I. Helmsman that actually steers the yacht according to the captain's orders.

Panel 2
Babbette has her arms crossed. Reggie is still putting on the jolly.
Babbette: Who's the captain?
Reggie: I am. You are the first mate.

Panel 3
Babbette is frowning, and Reggie is back-pedaling.
Reggie: I called dibs ...
Reggie: … err ...

Panel 4
Reggie bows to Babbette, with a flourish. Now Babbette is smiling like a contented cat.
Reggie: … but I would be only too happy to promote you to co-captain.
