, will be available before the SNOWMAN campaign closes.
I designed this last week and wasn't sure about it, but I've decided I'm happy with it. It's the new imprint that SNOWMAN will be published under in the future!
I want to thank all of SNOWMAN'S initial backers and especially my biggest backer
@EthanVanSciver
! It's an honor and privilege to have the ALL CAPS name on my work, brother!

Along with Ghost Dance, I've also been working on two other SNOWMAN books. One is Gwynn's backstory called "Little Wing" and the other is an Early Frost edition of Snowman

. I'm feeling a bit of cold and uncertainty lately, but I'm just gonna keep going.
Sorry if my last post about regret was concerning or discouraged anyone. I still love drawing comics and I'm not quitting. There's still many things I want to draw and stories I want to tell.
Amazing, SNOWMAN Passed 40k! Thank you to all our backers! I'm inking the cover for Early Frost and getting first pages ready for color!

Got thru the boxes tonight. Books were individually bagged/boarded & then surrounded with bubble wrap, which spared them from UPS. Only a small amount of dinged copies, which'll go to friends and family.
Anyways, books are on ebay now. Thanks everyone!
UPDATE: The SNOWMAN books have spent months in limbo but are finally being prepped for printing. Four more pages had to be added to Snowman
#1
yesterday, so it now includes a 4 page preview of Ghost Dance, bringing it to 60 pages.
It was a good day! Snowman original art tier backers took their pick of the pages from A Cold Day in Hell and the art was shipped. It felt so good! I'm forever grateful to them and all our backers. I'll make the rest of the art available soon!

Ebay orders from today. A taste of what fulfillment is like! SNOWMAN books are all in limited quantity, but especially the Gwynn ARCADE variant of Cold Day.

. They should be viewed in story form. I'll make a digital version of the book available tomorrow.
We lost our dog Tucker this week. My game has been way off on SNOWMAN so I drew Tucker yesterday instead. The kid colored it and it turned out great.
Hug your dogs, they don't live long enough.
What an absolute beast of a drawing! I hope there's a crossover one day!..

You could stare at this for hours and always find something new!
SNOWMAN is finally closing out today! Thank you to all who backed it and continued to be supportive when things got unexpectedly difficult. I'm eternally grateful and can't wait for you to see what we made for you!

Only hours remain! :D ->
I finished restoring the line art for Snowman
#1
: Early Frost last week. While most of it is simply cleaned up and restored, there are some improvements that may stand out.
This small stack of comics are the first ones I ever owned. I keep them seperate from the rest and get them out when I need to remind myself why I do this.
This scene from Wolverine

, buried in my subconscious, influenced SNOWMAN years later.
The 24 hour Snowman cover is in the hands of
@stefanirennee
