Wow! That was one heck of a last day! Thanks to everyone’s generous outpouring of support, Harken’s Raiders and Black Book: The Art of Darryl Banks have been fully funded! 

We sincerely could not have done this without you. Thank you so much to everyone who pledged, liked, shared, followed, took part in our AMA and Kickstarter Live events, read our updates, and took part in the discussion.

So, what happens next? Ron, Darryl, and the rest of the team will continue putting together the pages of Harken’s Raiders, and carefully curating Darryl’s first published art collection, Black Book: The Art of Darryl Banks. Our production team will put together the files for the printer, we’ll proof until it’s perfect, and then approve for printing. Once printed, the books are shipped to our offices, and the fulfillment process goes into overdrive. 

We’ll update you as each of these steps happen, so keep checking your inboxes as we aim for our March fulfillment goal.

Have a wonderful holiday, everyone! Thanks to you, we certainly will.

Good morning, Raiders! Thanks to you, we’ve reached 76% of our funding goal! We’re so close! We ask, once again, that you help us complete our mission and spread the word about Harken’s Raiders on social media.

While you’re telling your friends all about us, here’s a bit of eye candy to show them. We’re thrilled to announce that the final Harken’s Raiders pin-up piece is by none other than Peter Krause, with the wonderful coloring of Nanjan Jamberi. Peter Krause has a slew of comic credits under his belt, including his acclaimed Power of Shazam run, Adventures of Superman, Daredevil, Archie, and many more.

As of this morning, our campaign has reached the $13,000 mark! We have until Friday to reach our goal of $17,500, and get this Harken's Raiders mission going, so please spread the word! 

Today we're revealing the fifth of the six pin-ups that will be included in the gallery of both the print and digital editions of Harken's Raiders. This awesome piece of Harken himself is by Jeff Johnson, with color by Ross Hughes. Jeff Johnson's acclaimed career includes comics credits at Marvel and DC on titles like Green Lantern, Wonder Man, Legion of Super-Heroes and many more, as well as animation work.
