On Their Way....

This is a message for the IGG QV9 backers! For those of you who ordered physical perks, they are on their way via USPS. For those of you who selected one or more of the PDF perks, you should have received an email from DriveThruComics.com. That email contains links to the vouchers you need to download your copy of the PDF you requested.

If you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check your spam folder. If you still can't find the email from DriveThruComics, let us know and we'll get the links you need.

Signing and Shipping

Scott has finished autographing all the books, and we've started shipping them out. Your physical perks should show up in the next week or so (might be a bit longer for international shipments). We expect to send out vouchers (via email) to those who wanted the PDF e-books.

Once again, many thanks to our backers. Stand by for further updates.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Medium shot of Jacob.

Jacob: As you may know, it is not our practice to cooperate with temporal powers, especially when someone's freedom is at issue.

Jacob: I would like to hear your story, before I decide what I must do.

Panel 2
Wider shot, the three of them now seated. Robyn and Sajjan are in passenger seats; Jacob in the pilot's seat which can swivel around allowing him to face his guests. Robyn is gesturing as she tells their story; Sajjan sits passively, Jacob listens intently.
Caption (Robyn): 'So, I spent the next half-our telling Jacob our story, pretty much like I'm telling you now.'
Caption: 'As Jacob listened his face grew more stern with every passing moment.'

Panel 3
Medium shot of Jacob, looking very grave. Leaning forward a bit in his seat, elbows resting on knees, fingers pressed together in front of him.
Caption (Robyn): 'Finally ...'
Jacob: You tell an horrendous story ...

Panel 4
Tight two-shot of Robyn and Sajjan, looking pensive and holding their breaths.

No dialog.

Panel 5
Jacob, now looking more sad than stern, hands resting on his knees.

Jacob: … But I believe you.

Jacob: We have heard … stories about this place.

Panel 6
Jacob has swiveled back around forward in his seat, and is fastening his straps. Behind him, Robyn and Sajjan look at one another with wide-eyed relief.

Jacob: Just before you arrived at my airlock, Tower Control informed me that the situation here was under control. They cleared me for departure.

Panel 7
Robyn and Sajjan happily fastening their own seat-straps.

Jacob (OP): I will fly you to our settlement where members of our congregation will hear your account.

Jacob: They will decide what is to be done. Please strap in.
