Hi everyone,

We've got just under a week left in the issue 3 campaign! Based on our current trajectory, I think we are going to finish above the campaign for issue 2, which would be amazing. 

So please keep sharing the campaign and telling your friends! We got a great shout-out from Absolute Batman writer Scott Snyder yesterday!

Meanwhile the vote for the bonus pulp story is heating up. Here is the current tally:

  • Ring of Prometheus: 6.5
  • Blade of Medusa: 2.5
  • Gear of Antikythera: 2

There's still time to vote and it's anyone's game!

To vote, head to the campaign comments page and select which story you want to see adapted!

Campaigns worth your tokens

I wanted to highlight two campaigns from veteran creators on the sci-fi side of comics!

Giant Sized Cyberpunk Books 1 & 2

An outcast detective and punk vigilante team-up to stop a terrifying conspiracy. Don't miss this epic cyberpunk series, available in regular book size or giant size (half a metre high!) showcasing the stunning cyberpunk art of Monty Nero.

This is a new take on cyberpunk, with a unique world full of strange and surprising rules. It looks different too, rendered in shades of silver and black shadow with flashes of eerie glowing blue or red. It builds on the atmosphere of films like Blade Runner, The Big Sleep, and comics like Hellboy and Akira, to create a fresh story full of explosive new ideas about the future.

Snip #1-2: Erase Someone Else. Save Yourself.

If you could snip someone out from reality, from ever existing, would you do it?

And if you were next on the list, what would you do to save yourself?

Hi everyone,

Hope you had a nice weekend! We were buried under more snow here in New York, but hopefully it will melt soon. 

Second Stretch Goal Unlocked & Third Stretch Goal Revealed!

I'm happy to report that we've unlocked the second stretch goal! All backers will now get a 1-page comic illustrated by Enid Balám chronicling a pulp adventure from Beatrice's imagined past! Basically, we're going to turn one of our pulp homage covers into a real story! But we need your help picking! 

To vote on which story will be featured in the stretch goal comic, leave a comment on the main campaign page here with your vote! Here are the story choices:

  • The Blade of Medusa
  • The Gear of Antikythera
  • The Ring of Prometheus

Voting is open until the end of the campaign. Could the story expand to more pages? With your support, anything is possible ;)

Because we've unlocked the second stretch goal, we're also revealing the third stretch goal: an all-new Pillars of Atlantis holo trading card, the second in the series! If we unlock this stretch goal, Fran Delgado will illustrate a new card that will be included in everyone's pledge (digital or physical). Plus, new backers will also get the first card in the series, so you'll be able to build your collection.

Thank you again for coming out and showing your support for our series. As independent creators, we rely on you--the readers, the fans--to keep us going, and we really appreciate it.

Hopefully by the end of the weekend we will have unlocked the second stretch goal ($7000) and the next backer bonus (250 backers) which combined will add two free comics to everyone's pledge!

Please help share the campaign by retweeting this tweet, sharing this Instagram post, or telling a friend to go to bloodofatlantis.com. Word of mouth really goes a long way to bringing in new readers, which lets us bring you more comics.

Hi everyone,

Hope you had a great weekend! Since our last update, the campaign has been humming along. We've cleared 200 backers and are currently 281% funded!

Stretch Goal 1 Unlocked and Stretch Goal 2 Revealed

I'm happy to announce that we've unlocked the first stretch goal, which means that issue 3 will now be 34 pages long with the addition of 2 data pages! And because we've unlocked the first stretch goal, it's time to reveal the second stretch goal:

If we unlock the next stretch goal, everyone will get a copy of an all-new pulp adventure drawn by BoA issue 3 variant cover artist Enid Balám!

White Ash Crossover Print!

If you've been backing Kickstarter comics for the past few years, then you've likely come across Charlie Stickney's White Ash series. 

The campaign for Charlie's latest double issue of White Ash is wrapping up tomorrow, and we're offering a special crossover print featuring Beatrice from Blood of Atlantis and Lillian from White Ash

All you have to do is back both of our campaigns. You'll receive the physical crossover print if you back both campaigns at a physical pledge level, and the digital print if you back both campaigns at a digital pledge level.

"The long-running, hit fantasy series about Elves and Dwarves in Pennsylvania, returns with two ALL-NEW ISSUES!"

"White Ash is an ongoing, urban fantasy comic book series created by Charlie Stickney and Conor Hughes with colors by Fin Cramb. First launched on Kickstarter in 2017, White Ash is one of the longest-running and most popular series on the platform.  With almost 800 pages of story completed, now is the perfect time to join us."

Support White Ash here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/whiteashcomics/white-ash-1-to-9-and-a-half

You can also grab a copy of Glarien: Short and Deadly, which features a story drawn by Blood of Atlantis artist Francine Delgado!

I hope you'll check out White Ash, and stay tuned for another update later this week!

Best,

Jon

A record-breaking day 1, thank you!
6 months ago – Wed, Feb 11, 2026 at 11:05:51 AM

Hi everyone,

We had a record-breaking launch day! Here's a recap:

  • We finished the day with 140 backers and at 192% funded!
  • That backer total was my highest-ever amount of day 1 backers across all 6 of my Kickstarter campaigns, and the highest-ever day 1 funding for an issue of Blood of Atlantis. You all really came out extra strong to support the campaign!
  • We are within striking distance of unlocking the first stretch goal (maybe today, even?):

One of my favorite parts of the X-Men Krakoa-era books were the data pages that were sprinkled throughout the issues. If we unlock the first stretch goal, two data pages will be added to issue 3!

I've got a bunch of other awesome stretch goals planned (some familiar to past backers, some new), so please spread the word about the campaign and help unlock them! 

Posting about the campaign on social media always helps (you can retweet this tweet for example), or just tell a friend to go to BloodofAtlantis.com, simple as that!

Thanks for your continued support!

Best,
Jon
