Latest Updates from Our Project:

We're over a third of the way! New rewards coming...
about 4 years ago – Fri, Feb 14, 2020 at 08:26:30 PM

We're over a third of the way towards being funded so we're going to spice things up by adding some new reward tiers. Be sure to visit our page from time to time to check out the new rewards. We'll also be changing our banner to show off the wallpapers we've added as extra incentives. By the way, if you pledged any amount by midnight on Valentine's Day, you're eligible to download all four of the pieces of wallpaper as soon as we're funded. Check them out in the reward section if you haven't seen them yet. And if you know someone who wants to pledge but hasn’t yet, encourage them to pledge as soon as possible so they'll be eligible to get one or more of the other three.

Our first new reward is titled "Cats in Space" as it adds our series Pet Noir to the mix. We consider it a YA book, but all ages enjoy the tale of Leon, a genetically engineered cat who’s an undercover cop on a space station. For only $10 more, you'll be receiving all of the items in "The Monster" as well as a first printing and a high-resolution PDF of Pet Noir Volume One, a trade paperback that collects issues one through six of Pet Noir. So for only $45 you'll receive both Mary Shelley Presents Volume One and Pet Noir Volume One

We would also like to announce that we have an exciting extra for when we're fully-fund. Nathan Leuth, the creator of Impure Blood, has donated the first 30 pages of his comicto our Kickstarter Bundle. This is a not to be missed comic. Check out their Kickstarter here. I’m a backer. I want this book. 

Story:  Dubbed the "Abomination" because of his appearance, enslaved gladiator, Roan, carries within his human body the blood of a mystical and nearly extinct race known as the Ancients. He jumps at the prospect of freedom when a mysterious girl named Dara appears at his cell and offers him a chance at a new life in exchange for his help. Together with the aristocratic Caspian, roguish Elnor, and grease monkey Mac, they embark on a mission to track down an artifact that Dara believes may be connected to Roan's ancient, Impure Blood.

Hello Awesome Backers:

We are already 30% funded. It's all due to you, so thank you. But please keep sharing, tweeting and getting the word out as I have some terrific Stretch Goals planned and we still have a ways to go.

Did you see that Kickstarter put us on their “Projects We Love” list? If you search for Mary Shelley Presents, you’ll see the banner across the left-hand corner.  That is very exciting!

We’ve also added an incentive for early bird backers. Everyone who pledges before Valentine’s day will receive four special Mary Shelley Presents wallpapers once we fund. After the 14th, people will receive three of the four of the collection for a limited period of time. And so on for the next two weeks. If you know anyone thinking of pledging, urge them to do so early so they can receive all four of the wallpapers. Every pledge level is eligible.

I also wanted to let you know of another interesting Kickstarter that is live right now.

BOSTON METAPHYSICAL SOCIETY: GHOSTS AND DEMONS 

Madeleine Holly-Rosing has been a great support of ours since the beginning. She’s the amazing creator of the Boston Metaphysical Society comic series.

In this issue Caitlin and Alma have continued Mary and Frida’s work as union organizers, but when Caitlin has a disturbing dream about her childhood friend, Duncan the ghost, she decides to return to Boston to find out what’s wrong. Though it is a happy reunion with Samuel and Granville, something much more sinister awaits her and the team.

I’m a backer. You should be, too. Go here to support her phenomenal series.

More to come and, thank you for continuing to support Mary Shelley Presents.
