Latest Updates from Our Project:

The Amrit Birdi Variant
over 5 years ago – Mon, Nov 26, 2018 at 06:28:31 AM

Hello! As a new week dawns, our team is gearing up to make our second week one to remember. Keep an eye on our campaign and our social media channels, as we’ll be announcing some stuff that you won’t want to miss!

Today we’d like to feature the stellar work of Amrit Birdi. Perhaps best known for his work on the acclaimed Username graphic novel, London artist Amrit Birdi is a concept and comic artist whose work has graced brands outside of comics including Nike and Doritos, and whose sought-after cover work was a staple on the Assassin's Creed comic book series.

We’re more than happy to have Amrit as part of our team, and we’re excited to show off this process video of his Harken’s Raiders variant cover. Amrit’s variant cover is strictly limited to 100 copies, and available for a pledge of $45 or more.

Up to the Challenge

Happy Saturday! We hope you’re all resting comfortably today, and have recovered from your food comas.

Today, we are happy to present the custom-designed Harken's Raiders S.O.E Patch and Challenge Coin to our backers, and lovers of memorabilia. Each is designed to pay homage to Special Operations Executive units like the one in the pages of the Harken's Raiders original graphic novel. The patch measure 4 inches in diameter, and the challenge coin is sized at 1.5 inches. The challenge coin features our special (if unofficial) member of the Harken's team, Alfie, because what's a World War 2 story without a bulldog?

Both the S.O.E. patch and challenge coin can be pledged via the Care Package reward tier, as well as other levels. Additionally, both will be featured as add-ons, and can be added to your pledge via BackerKit once the campaign ends, or at any time during the campaign.

Until tomorrow!

The Best Deal in Town!

Good afternoon! As many of you are undoubtedly busting down doors at big box stores or staying warm shopping from home on your iPad, we wanted to take a moment to remind you of the great deals right here on the Harken’s Raiders campaign.

Perhaps the biggest value that Ominous Press has ever offered is happening right now! You can own every single volume in the Black Book series for just $100. This includes Black Book: The Art of Bart Sears, Andy Smith, Jim Starlin, Graham Nolan, and Darryl Banks! With more artists to be announced, this is the best time to get your hands on the full set of this pristine collection.

This deal is obviously running for the entire length of the campaign, but don’t miss out, this may be the last time we offer the full collection at this price!
