Hi Masters,
The lists are ready to go to Barry at Ka-blam and we should see shipping happening in a few weeks’ time. We are working on a better way to streamline the shipping process, so we can deliver future campaigns by the estimated date. As always, we will keep you posted.
In the meantime, please check out the latest from our friends at Standard comics.
From the Back Issue Bin of a Parallel Universe:
If you're a fan of the George Perez era of the Justice League of America and the Avengers, Paul Levitz and Keith Giffen's Legion of Superheroes, and Wolfman's New Teen Titans, you should check out The Sentinels for a Bronze-Age fix.
Combining my own original characters with updated public domain superheroes, this homage to the Bronze Age of comics should satisfy the urge for comics like they used to make.
As the Grim Reaper continues to wrestle with his own internal demons, a mysterious figure arrives at Freedom's Stronghold. UltraMan and crew continue their Multiversal journey. Super-villains report to a secretive figure.
Find out in this action-packed 22-page Bronze-Age style comic book, The Sentinels "Interregnum"; a great jumping on point for the series! Guest starring your original characters!!
Thanks to comics fans who backed the previous issues, I'm able to bring this issue to life on Kickstarter. (I started publishing with "#267" to imply there is a history dating back to the 60s (kinda like Big Bang Comics if you will), but there's just these so far. They are all written to imply a 'Standard Universe' history, but they are standalone stories.)
Best,
Darrin

Hi Masters,
We still have around 100 backers that have not responded to their survey. We are going to extend the lock date till Sunday, July 17th*, but on that date, we will LOCK orders and get them over to Barry at Ka-Blam for fulfillment. PLEASE, fill out your survey ASAP so we can get the Masters #1 into everyone's hands. If you need help with your survey, please email me at [email protected]
*after July 17th, there may be a delay in getting your books
Please note, we will only lock orders for Masters #1 and not for the Trades as they won't be shipping till after ALL campaigns for single books have completed. We also have not charged postage to those with Trades. That will happen when the time comes for them to ship.
Best,
Darrin

The last day to make final updates to your order is Tuesday, July 12th. After this date, we will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases, pledge upgrades, and pre-orders. You can update your shipping address up until we lock addresses for shipping. And you can also grab some cool add-ons, like Posters, Action Figures, etc.
If you haven’t answered your survey by July 12th, you can still answer your BackerKit survey or pay for extra shipping after the deadline order due date, we’ll still receive your information but your shipment may be delayed.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://themasters.backerkit.com
THANK YOU!
Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering our BackerKit survey—even though it may not seem like much as an individual backer, you have no idea how tremendously helpful this has been for me when trying to keep track of all 567 of you!
Thanks everyone for your support!

Finally after close to 2 years since conception, the first issue of my first self-published comic series, "The Masters" went to the printer.
It's been quite the Odyssey, and I am so grateful to my family, friends, collaborators, advisors, supporters, and backers who have made this possible.
I wish to thank everyone who supported the Kickstarter campaign, and to let you know you can purchase some ADD-ONS now when filling out your survey.
Great items like POSTERS and ACTION FIGURES and so much MORE! So BACKERS keep an eye on your email Inbox!
If you missed the campaign, NOW is the time to get in your PRE-ORDER! Please visit our store. Link listed below in the first comment section. HERE: https://themasters.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
In addition, The Masters Issue #1 will be available at two retail chains: Graham Crackers Comics (all 12 locations) AND Dream land Comics & Vinyl in Libertyville, Illinois. Keep checking back with Power Comics, Inc. for dates of artist appearances!
