What We Need & What You Get
We will print as many books as we can with funds generated from this crowdfund campaign.
These are the main content for reward tiers:
1. Digital copies of El Krudo issues #1-4 (for those outside the US that would still like to support our crazy ape indie comic)
2. Physical copies of El Krudo issues #1-4, which will come with some rad accessories! Including a limited edition print by the amazing Elliot Rodriguez!
Risks & Challenges
Printing can always be a challenge. We have some good partners that we work with directly, but this past year has been especially difficult. The books will definitely be made since the art is complete and we do not expect any major delays on printing. Of course, we will update our backers of any unexpected road bumps along the way.
