Monthly update + Charging backers SOON!

Hello dear backers,
We are back from this Summer break with more succulent previews!
Here is a sneak peek of page 11, inked by Lady Santos and colored by MSASSYK.
Right now we are perfectly on time: all the comic pages are inked and MSASSYK is almost halfway with the coloring! Hopefully, we are going to print the books in 2-3 weeks and we'll patiently wait for them to reach our warehouse. Then, fulfillment can start approximately in November 2024.
ALL MERCH ARRIVED, EXCEPT FOR...
Bookmarks. Unfortunately, one of our supplier didn't make a good job with previous bookmarks: they were ruined and scratched and the printing quality was really bad. We had to reprint them all and hopefully you will get a better product.
WE'RE GOING TO CHARGE BACKERS SOON!
So please, be sure the card you provided on Backerkit is correct. After that, we will lock orders to count exactly how many books we have to print.

Q&A time: Will you find our book in retailers book stores? and more
5 months ago
– Wed, May 29, 2024 at 01:41:43 AM
Hi dear backers!
Here is a quick update to reply to the most common questions we've receiving.
THE HOLLOWED NIGHT QUESTIONS
Q: Will the comic be in retailers comic books stores?
A: Short answer, unfortunately no. We are an indie publishing house based in Europe so our books are not distributed worldwide. However, if you are a retailer, we may offer discounts over our books! Contact our publisher at info(at)kudoseditore.com for details.
Q: What genre is the book? Does it contain a lot of gore?
A: The book is horror, rated 16+ and it contains a bit of gore. You can find some preview pages on our Kickstarter page!
Q: Is there any sort of romance in it between the main characters?
A: This is a massive spoiler but here's a quick reply from our author Son M: "I'm a fan of romance but we it really depends on how many issues we get and space". So here it is! Back the project so we can create more issues!
Q: How many issues you expect Hollowed Night to be?
A: If the series gets enough attention, we will work on 1 issue per year to reach at least 3, one for each main character in the story!
Q: Do we get to see any of these characters in their monster (werewolf/vampire) form in the comic, or only their human form?
A: We are not sure if the character real form will appear in this exact volume or in the next ones but probably yes.
SHIPPING QUESTIONS
Q: Would it be possible to add my country to the list of destinations?
A: Unless your country is included in the list of destination where we cannot ship, we may add it to the list of destinations! Just contact us with the perk you're interested in and we will add your country to the list.
Q: Why shipping fees are so high?
A: Thank you for your feedback! Sadly, we are aware of that. We are shipping from the EU and we included Kickstarter's fees, labor, and packaging into the shipping fees. Usually the courier shipping itself from Italy to the US costs €35+ (taxes, package and fees excluded) in case the items weight exceeds 2kg. We hope Kickstarter will implement a weight base system in the future to lower add-on's shipping costs. Otherwise, we may consider charging shipping once at the end of the campaign.
