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
The living room session continues. In this shot Gus is starting to stand up. Mary-Francis continues to hold her son's hand.
Gus: Well, things are going to change, starting tomorrow.
Wally: Change?

Panel 2
Now Gus is standing next to the couch, assuming a command posture, talking down at Wally, who is looking up at him with some alarm (not too much).
Gus: You, my son, are going to learn your father's trade.
Wally: You mean, constructing seasteads?

Panel 3
Gus paces behind the sofa (as well as one might pace in Cererean gravity), pontificating. Wally is rolling his eyes.
Gus: A good, practical career! Working with your hands! Doing real work making real things!
Wally: What if I'm not interested in that?

Panel 4
Gus leans over the sofa, sticking his face directly in Wally's. Mary-Francis is a bit shocked but doesn't say anything. Wally is sullen.
Gus: You want to continue living in my house, eating my food, breathing my air?
Wally: I see your point.
