Here's the link:
Now what the hell is Mark thinking? Only 7 days of campaigning? The worst part is the shipping. It's an expensive book to begin with (62 USD), and asking for 50 bucks for shipping is insane! I have backed all of the Kickstarters, but I think I might sit this one out. How can shipping be that expensive? Even Canada has to pay 50 bucks for shipping. That's not right man...

Sucks for the shipping, but the idea is awesome.

I think Mark should stick to one or two things at a time. What ever happened to the Magnum helicopter guy? What happened to Disco8track? He should stick to his LK/Ethel comics and build them up first because he's spread out too thin.
One thing I don't like to do is say I'm going to do something grand but then put little or no effort into it afterwards.
And I like to think I don't need Kickstarter for most things.

He released a schedule not too long ago how he was going to release everything. Magnum Skywolf will get its own print and Disco 8-Track has been transformed into Lord Karnage I think. I can almost guarantee that this kickstarter campaign will not succeed. 7K in one day wmis still impressive, but I bet the momentum will slow down today.

I actually like this idea. I might buy one. I love the book idea. But you live in the US right? The shipping is only 6 bucks compared to 50.

Also it's now possible to keep up with all of his stuff when he releases so many projects with those prices. It's a shame that he only gave this project a week of campaigning. It's like he doesn't want it to succeed.

It's like he doesn't want it to succeed. I also haven't understood the one week limitation. Is he overconfident or sure that the project won't work out? I see no reason for why he didn't give it a month. Anyway, this is the first time I won't back a Mark project, as it's just too expensive and I've already spent a lot in the complete supreme collection.

Well this is only for the hardcover. There will be a paperback and digital.

Is it possible that he's getting greedy?

It feels very much like last year when he started 3 Patreon campaigns. He spread out too thin and got sad when his monthly earnings decreased. So if he starts a lot of Kickstarters and stuff, of course that's going to hurt his Patreon and so on.
