Hey Backers,
You've helped me bring some incredible Nexus stories to life through Kickstarter, and for that, I'm eternally grateful. But the truth is, the traditional comic book world is a tough racket. Deadlines, printing costs, distribution nightmares - it's enough to make a guy want to hang up his drawing gloves.
But I'm not giving up. I'm fired up and ready to take Rude Dude to the next level!
That's why we're launching "Project Phoenix," our brand-new Patreon campaign. It's a way for my most dedicated fans (that's you!) to join forces with me, to support my work directly, and to become part of a creative revolution.
Here's what awaits you inside "Project Phoenix":
-
Direct Line to My Brain: Get early access to new Nexus pages, sketches, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into my creative process. It's like having a front-row seat to the madness!
-
Kick-Ass Rewards: Score exclusive prints, personalized commissions, original art from my archives, and even the chance to hang out with me and Jaynelle on Zoom or in person.
-
The Thune Sector HQ: Join our exclusive Discord server, connect with fellow fans, and become part of the Rude Dude inner circle.
Think of Patreon as your secret weapon, your way to fuel the future of Nexus and empower me to create the stories you crave. And don't worry, we'll still be launching epic Kickstarter campaigns for new projects!
This is your chance to be more than just a backer; it's your chance to be a partner, a co-conspirator in keeping the Rude Dude dream alive.
Join "Project Phoenix" today and let's make some comic book history!
Head over to https://www.patreon.com/steverude/ now and check out the tiers. You won't be disappointed!
With heartfelt gratitude,
Steve & Jaynelle Rude

BATTLE FOR THUNEWORLD ORDERS
We are FINALLY finishing up the Battle for Thuneworld issues 4 and 5. They are VERY VERY late, but Steve literally took issue 4 apart and half the book was rewritten. We also let 2 designers go and now I'm doing their jobs as well!
Once we get those to the printer we will have ship and on sale dates!
We are crowdfunding the Collected Edition for Thuneworld July 18 - August 8 as part of Backerkit's COMICtopia! We are pleased to be part of this monumental project!
