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 close-up of Terry, her arms resting on her knees and one of her hands holding her chin in a thoughtful pose.
Terry: I guess you had no choice, but unless Svetlana joins our conspiracy and fancies the 'Cisco Kid,' he's going to be one lonesome cowboy when he gets to Mars.
Panel 2
Focus on Leon, standing up and moving towards the kitchen.
Leon: I discussed that with him...he accepts that.
Leon: Besides, if we make a go of it, others will follow. Ultimately,I’ll put millions of people on Mars.

Panel 3
Leon walks into the kitchen and Terry stands to follow.
Leon: Once our skyjacking and proto-colony are a fait accompli, Virgin, XCOR, SpaceX, JP Aerospace, plus everybody else and their brother, will get in on the act.
Leon: If the US doesn't like it, too bad.
Panel 4
Leon picks up the pot of coffee and turns to where Terry is off-panel.
Leon: The deals we cut with Panama give us an end-run around the Americans, and I have two other backups to Panama...
Leon: ...Joint operations run by Singapore, Malaysia and Bahrain in the Far East...
Leon: ...and the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen in the Middle East—if I need them.
