For those that don't know/remember, buckshot_defunct (aka Kenny Keil) had a comic out a couple of years ago that was really funny, but it got dropped after one issue because Diamond (the only real comic distributer) changed their order guidelines. I believe Tales to Suffice #1 was fairly successful, given the type of comic it is.
He couldn't let the idea for the comic go, though, and eventually decided to self-publish. Friends, family, and fans helped foot the printing costs via Kickstarter, in a campaign that was a raging success. He still had to come out of pocket for shipping, etc.
So now we have Giant-Sized Tales to Suffice, a paperback beast that is basically more than three issues worth of funny.
In the interim, Kenny lost his regular job. His wife believes in him, certain OKPs believe in him, and many industry guys like his work. This guy has really busted his ass to shove himself into the comics industry, and now you can nudge him further. This isn't just a "lemme help dude out because he's working hard" situation, though.
The book is fucking good. It's hilarious, gorgeous, and the quality of the paperback printing slaps the shit outta mainstream paperback printings costing much more.
Head over to his site (link at the top) and cop for $14.99, or get two individual issues for $.99 each in digital format. Discuss the book in this post!
