I hope everyone is having a warm, safe, and happy holiday week! We’re still waiting on the hardcover books from the printer and I’m expecting an update from them soon!
This was an amazing year for The Middle Age - and your support on this Kickstarter was a big part of that! And once again, I must thank my kind supporters onPatreon - without them, this webcomic wouldn’t exist. <3
I hope you enjoy the digital download and I can’t wait to have the hardcover books in your hands! :D
Wishing you a healthy, fun, and brilliant 2019!

Bookplate and book update!

A quick update: I'm still waiting on the books to arrive from the printer but the bookplates have arrived and they turned out great! Here's a look...
I've begun working on the drawings for the Doodled editions on these bookplates so they can be ready and waiting to get shipped out when the books arrive! :)
I was hoping to have the books in hand before now but the printer is saying that they've been swamped with holiday orders and don't have a delivery date for us yet. I'll keep everyone posted!
Episode 121 of The Middle Age was uploaded this week. As always, you can read the story from the beginning here: middleagecomic.com
And big, big thanks once more to all of you who have begun supporting me on Patreon!The Middle Age now has 97 supporters and we're just three supporters shy of our goal! I really hope we can reach that number soon and start 2019 off with two episodes every week! Fingers crossed! You can learn more here: patreon.com/steveconley
Thanks again!

Waiting on the books from the printer! And Bookplates!

I caught one glitch in the proofs I received (part of a word was cut off on one page) and I was able to get that fixed before the big order was started! Whew! The files were a little slow in getting replaced because of the Thanksgiving holiday but everything is back on track.
Bookplates!
I've designed and placed an order for bookplates for every 'doodled' book!
I've rushed the order and expect to have the bookplates this week (I'll share a photo when they come in). Each bookplate is 3x4 inches, is printed on high-quality, acid-free paper, and features a new illustration at the top...
Each bookplate will have an adhesive backing so you can affix it inside your book! This will mean I can begin doodling sooner and have the doodles waiting when the books arrive!
Other perks...
You can choose to display the doodle separately (a few of you have asked for this).
This means I won't have to crack the spine to draw inside the book.
