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
Two-shot of Ed and Carlos, Ed is ticking off his second finger.
Ed: Two, it's too heavy for you.
Ed: What do you weigh? 65 kilos? This gun has just too much kick for your mass.

Panel 2
Focus on Ed, ticking off his third finger.
Ed: Three, it has too high a muzzle velocity.
Ed: In the Desert Eagle, a .50 AE has a velocity of 438 meters per second.

Panel 3
Looking past Carlos at Ed, who waxes professorial.
Ed: That's a good percentage of Ceres' escape velocity of 510 meters per second.
Ed: In fact, if you fired it east at the equator, Ceres' rotational velocity would add another 94 meters per second and your round would leave Ceres forever.

Panel 4
Two-shot of Carlos and Ed, ed takes a sip of his drink as he finishes his mini-lecture. Carlos looks defeated.
Ed: In any case, your rounds will go just too damned far.
Ed: No telling what damage a stray round could do.
