Please scroll down for all our titles, collectibles and extras including digital editions of sold out books like both 321: Fast Comics volumes. The Few and Cursed is a creator-owned comic book series about people trying to survive a wicked world where most of the water was gone overnight in a mysterious apocalyptic event in 1840.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Shipping Update: replacements have been sent, NZ packages on the way, service to Australia still suspended.
about 2 years ago – Sat, Mar 12, 2022 at 12:55:20 AM

Hey y'all,

Quick update for those waiting to get anything replaced whether because they never got their rewards or anything arrived damaged. I'm almost through shipping out everything and most of you should've gotten tracking updates in your email accounts through BackerKit - I expect a lot of you to have even received the new packages (at least backers in the US).

Service has resumed to New Zealand and everyone waiting for the packages should get them in the next few weeks, I just think it will be a while though so please give it some time.

I'm shipping out the prints and the last packages over the next four to five days and that's it for now. I got a lot of international packages returned to sender and I will reach out to those backers individually, please keep an eye out for emails from me if you are an international backer and never got your rewards.

AUSTRALIA BACKERS

This is killing me but service is still suspended to Australia. I have no clue whether I will be able to ship these but rest assured all packages are ready, labeled and just waiting to fly out the door. Unfortunately I have business in Brazil in April so I won't be able to ship these until May when I'm back in the US.

Hopefully service will resume until May 15th when I travel back to Florida. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, this sucks, I know. I'm with you, I keep checking every day if service has returned and if by some miracle it does before I fly to Brazil at the end of the month, I will ship everything and update you again.

CHRONICLES OF TFAC

As of this update the only pending packages/items to ship will be Chronicles of The Few and Cursed. Just a reminder I'm printing a second run of these alongside Heart-Shaped Ambition which is going to print in the next two to three weeks.

They will ship in June when I'm back in Florida for the fulfillment of that Kickstarter campaign.

If anybody has any questions please do not hesitate to contact me via DMs right here on Kickstarter or better yet via e-mail at [email protected]

I do respond to every comment, message and email and I try to do it as quickly as possible.

Cheers!

Missing Rewards or Damaged Items? Aus/NZ backers? Please read for replacement instructions!
about 2 years ago – Mon, Feb 14, 2022 at 10:28:54 PM

Howdy, fellas!

It's been two months since my last update and I'm finally going back to Florida to not only resume fulfillment but also handle any missing or damaged rewards. What does this mean?

Well, let get through this topic by topic.

AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND BACKERS

Your packages will be the first ones out the door as soon as I'm back to the US on the 25th. Packages have been done already so all that is left to do is actually ship them. I expect to get them all done before the end of February.

MISSING REWARDS

Anybody that NEVER received their packages are next. If you have received your rewards but an item or two  arrived damaged please scroll down to the next section.

Unfortunately lots of packages get lost in transit and a number of you have reached out already but unless I organize ALL replacements in one swing it will be impossible to keep track of which backers got sent their replacements and which didn't yet.

To that end I need you to fill out a quick form online to make sure your shipping address is up to date and that I can find your BackerKit Survey, reset it and send a second package.

----------> https://forms.gle/aZpP31pqSNA3yovL6 <----------

Please click the link above and fill out your Full Name, Email address and Update Shipping Address.

This form will be open until March 20th, 11:59pm PST. Please fill it out sooner than later so I can also ship your replacement packages sooner than later.

DAMAGED ITEMS

If you did get your rewards but items got damaged in transit please email me photos of the damages at [email protected]

These will be handled separately from the missing rewards so please, one more time, do not fill out the above form if you are looking to replace an item that arrived damaged. As soon as I get an email with photos of the damages I will reply with instructions on how to proceed to get anything replaced.

It's super easy and intuitive and many of you have already gone through the process. Packages from this group will be shipped around March 12-15th. 

CHRONICLES OF TFAC & PRINTS

If you have purchased prints the mailing tubes will be mailed alongside the items above so expect them all to ship by March 20th.

Chronicles of TFAC on the other hand will not ship in the next few weeks. It will go to print alongside Heart-Shaped Ambition for logistics purposes and I'm afraid that project suffered a bit of a delay during the holidays and month of January. We're gearing up to go to print already though and I expect to get these shipped in May/June.

I know this is frustrating and a huge inconvenience, I sincerely apologize for this and again I can tell you it won't happen again now that Funagain is taking over shipping and fulfillment starting already with Heart-Shaped Ambition.

Sneak peek at The Few and Cursed #7!

There are tons of exciting news and projects ahead and I cannot wait to start sharing them with you, I'm thrilled we're almost completely out of the woods with this Kickstarter so I can focus more on creation and production.

Thanks so much for supporting The Few and Cursed and for your never ending patience and support. You guys really rock!

Cheers,

Felipe

Fulfillment COMPLETE! (Aus/NZ, Chronicles & Prints pending) Please read for info on missing and/or damaged items in transit.
over 2 years ago – Tue, Dec 14, 2021 at 03:47:40 AM

Hey y'all!

The update all of you have been waiting for and that I was so anxious to share. Seriously, I've been writing this text in my head for a few days now as I was working on the last packages so allow me to yell at the top of my lungs:

 FULFILLMENT HAS BEEN COMPLETED!! 

That's right, over 2.500 parcels have been shipped literally up to the last minute possible before I boarded a flight home to Brazil for the holidays. I stopped at the post-office an hour or so before packing and heading to the airport. Crazy, huh?

If you filled out your BackerKit Survey then you either already got your rewards or received an e-mail with a tracking number (there are still 96 backers that never filled out their Surveys...). Because I was literally shipping packages until Saturday please allow USPS some time to get them to you.

A word on tracking:

When I buy the postage and generate the label you all get an e-mail through BackerKit with that information but it isn't until the USPS scans the bar code that their system updates the tracking. And sometimes they only scan it when they actually deliver the package.

It's frustrating, I know, but it happens more often than you'd think so if your tracking still says "Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item" it doesn't mean I haven't shipped it yet, just means the USPS didn't scan the label into their system. You might even get the package before that info refreshes.

With that being said, if too long a time goes by without any updates whatsoever I will gladly send a replacement package. I just want to reassure everyone that nobody will be left without their rewards.

I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you all again for supporting my work and for your more than generous patience with this fulfillment and all the delays. You guys are the best!

AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND, CHRONICLES OF TFAC & PRINTS

I'm afraid nothing has changed re: the situation between USPS and Australia/New Zealand and any mail going there is still suspended. A few backers have pointed out that Fedex and DHL still ship there and I stopped by their offices to check prices and they were simply not viable. Smaller packages started at $178 while the bigger ones would cost more than $250 each. 

I'm really sorry but since that was never in the budget I'm afraid the project wouldn't be able to cover those and thus I had to make the difficult decision of holding on to the packages until I'm back in Florida.

Hopefully by then the situation will have gone back to normal and I will have those shipped out in no time, they are all ready to go, I left them completely done just waiting for the shipping label.

As I mentioned before, Chronicles of The Few and Cursed is now officially out of print and we're going into our second printing of the book. These will be printed alongside Heart-Shaped Ambition and shipped separately by Funagain Logistics early next year (more on that scrolling down).

I will reach out a couple of weeks before shipments go out the door and everyone will get tracking codes as well.

PRINTS

Because prints are shipped separately in mailing tubes they are also printed separately as well and I use a local small printer in my neighborhood. I reached out to them and they didn't have enough paper for my orders and while they scrambled to get it in time, I'm afraid that didn't happen.

As soon as I'm back in Florida those will ship as well. I apologize for the inconvenience, I'm really sorry I left the prints for last and that back-fired but I felt I needed to handle everyone's packages first before moving on to the tubes...

MISSING OR DAMAGED ITEMS? (News on FUNAGAIN!)

I handled fulfillment completely by myself with Fabiano coming in to help in the last two weeks and we're both only human so mistakes could have happened and I already know they did because some of you reached out to me already. Fabiano and I did our best to be as thorough as possible but please always check if all your items were sent to you.

Same thing goes for damages. We did our best to ship everything as safely as possible but a couple of items were a real challenge (I'm looking at you Painting the World Red!!).

Give it some time until early 2022 but if you don't get your package by then or there is anything missing or if any of the rewards got damaged in transit do NOT leave a comment or DM me here on Kickstarter, we need to do this via e-mail. 

You can reach out via Kickstarter but first thing I will do is ask you to e-mail me... so PLEASE E-MAIL ME AT [email protected]

I need you to shoot me an e-mail because you'll need to send photos of any damages and it makes my life a whole lot easier to queue all replacements up in a folder at my e-mail browser. Kickstarter just throws all communication together and it's hard for me to navigate and find any specific requests or mark which ones have been dealt with.

I am more than happy to do right by all of you and see that 100% of backers are satisfied with their Few and Cursed experience, just please make sure to e-mail me, capisce?

FUNAGAIN TAKING OVER FULFILLMENT STARTING 2022!

There's no way I will be able to continue doing these fulfillments by myself. It just got to a point where not only I feel overwhelmed but makes me feel incapable too. I want to do the best possible for both backers and The Few and Cursed franchise and shipping packages is not the answer. 

My time would be better spent writing new stories and your packages would also be in better hands than my own as I just learn as I go giving it all my best and sometimes that's not enough. I'm not a shipping expert, Funagain is.

So starting with the next fulfillment (TFAC: Heart-Shaped Ambition) every campaign will be shipped out by the good folks at Funagain. I have confidence that this means you'll get your parcels faster and more securely.

It will also give me more time to work on the actual books and get them printed faster as well, it's a win-win for everyone.

That's it for today, folks, and until the next update. As backers of TFAC trade paperback you'll hear from me from time to time whenever we have new stuff coming out of The Few and Cursed IP. If you have any questions or comments in the mean time please do not hesitate to contact me, my door is always open.

Thank you so much!

Felipe

Last 48hrs to back The Few and Cursed #7 - a direct sequel to the trade! Almost 90% of packages have shipped out, fulfillment almost over \o/
over 2 years ago – Thu, Dec 02, 2021 at 04:01:45 PM

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/felipecagno/the-few-and-cursed-7-a-new-season-begins?ref=6cxptd

Howdy fellas!

This is it, we're running out of time with the latest Few and Cursed issue on Kickstarter. The campaign to fund production of issue #7 - a direct sequel to the Crows of Mana'Olana story - ends TOMORROW at 10pm PST.

This is the LAST CALL and CHANCE to grab the new issue alongside a number of extras rivaling those of the trade (cards, prints, bookmark, coin!) and read the beginning of a brand new story featuring the Redhead and Hazel.

I know there are still many of you that haven't received your books yet, we're almost done getting to those packages too, but most have and I do ask you all to consider backing this latest Kickstarter. It's the foundation to keep TFAC and Red alive and kicking =D

And let's not forget that to announce the new season, which will feature a number of exciting projects outside comics, we've prepared an amazing LIVE ACTION teaser featuring Carol Costa as the alluring Redhead.

If you haven't seen that yet just hit play and enjoy it. I really cannot wait to hear your comments about the teaser and Carol.

Here it is:

<div class="template oembed" data-href="https://youtu.be/nmfm0h0Ztro"><a href="https://youtu.be/nmfm0h0Ztro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/nmfm0h0Ztro</a></div>

LESS THAN 400 PACKAGES TO SHIP AND FULFILLMENT WILL BE COMPLETE!

It's been challenging to say the least but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I never intended to do this fulfillment all by myself but life got in the way and that's how it happened. I am thrilled to say that Fabiano and I have less than 400 parcels to get out the door to finally announce this is done, all packages have shipped.

I know it's super frustrating to see all the comments about people getting their rewards while you haven't yet but please do bear with me for another week or two and you will be just as happy like all the other backers. We poured our blood and sweat into this trade paperback and I really think it shows.

The feedback we have been getting from people have been incredible and I thank every single one of you again for supporting The Few and Cursed. You made this all happen!!

I've been doing my best to stay on top of every comment and/or DM so keep them coming, it's really a joy reading all your positive feedback.

And let's not forget that the campaign to fund the new issue ends TOMORROW, hit the link below and make sure you do not miss it:

AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND backers please read - IMPORTANT!!! Fulfilment impacted due to suspension of postal service.
over 2 years ago – Tue, Nov 23, 2021 at 10:27:25 PM

This is a special announcement to backers in Australia and New Zealand only. 

No other backers have been affected by this.

While things have been going back to normal we're still living in a post-Covid world and its effects are still impacting our lives. After trying  to ship packages to Australia and New Zealand through BackerKit and then actually going to my local United States Postal Service agency, I was informed service to these countries have been SUSPENDED until further notice. 

You can read more about it here: https://thenewdaily.com.au/finance/2021/10/05/us-australia-post-suspended/

And here: https://auspost.com.au/service-updates/current-updates/international-service-updates

I've never had anything remotely close to this happen in the past and I will monitor the situation closely as it develops. I have 60 packages labeled and ready to ship which will go out as soon as service resumes.

I apologize for the inconvenience and frustration. This sucks for me just as much as it sucks for you and I'm sorry about the whole situation.

Sincerely,

Felipe
