Shortbread Summary

EGGBEATER is a black & white, 24-page, traditionally drawn floppy. Every backer receives an 8x10 full-color print by Dean James(The Embrace) EGGBEATER & an 8x10 full-color print of the original drawn by the inside artist, Vinny Scatena, along with the book itself.

• The artist is Vinny Scatena. He's a first-timer with a unique style, love of comics & art, & full dedication.
• I'm Ali & I'm the writer. I have one independently published novella, Wild Man. I marketed, sold, & fulfilled over 200 physical copies successfully- without a campaign. 
• Several wonderful & talented artists have believed in this project enough to create amazing contributions.

Thugs have butchered Eric's sickly wife & two children. They've burned down his bakery & left him physically disfigured- and insane. He's cooked up some custom-made weapons, a black belt in martial tarts, and is on the hunt for sweet revenge.

EGGBEATER is working his way up to the top tier of the local gang responsible for ruining his life- one brutal murder and pun at a time!

What We Knead & What You Get

This comic is what YOU bake it. You, the readers, are the loaf of the party:

• Quid pro dough: Every bit of funding goes into the book & campaign necessities. First and foremost: Paying my artist, Vinny Scatena, and printing locally. Secondly, shipping materials & costs to ensure you receive everything in good shape. Thirdly, of course, the perks.
• A variety of perks: prints, trading cards, magnets & more!
• If I don't reach my funding goal, you still get your book and chosen perks.

Whisks & Challenges

It can't be all bun & games, unfortunately. There is a lot of elbow grease that goes in to independent  publishing.

• Printing locally removes all the risks associated with shipping time and book accidents.
• Running an online store and fulfilling my novella myself gave me the real-world drive and experience for fulfillment.
