First off, a huge thank you for your patience! We know we've been a little quiet, but that's because we've had our heads down, entirely focused on building out this beast that is BLITZ magazine issue 1. It's packed with some seriously exceptional raw talent!
📢 Since our last update, we've assembled an incredible lineup of international creators to bring you bold art, insightful articles, engaging discussions, and so much more. We have the fantastic work of Italy-based artists Dina Omut and Jute, alongside Mahdi Kheene, who's making waves in the NY indie scene, plus many other contributors—including the promised legendary Jim Mahfood, Shawn Crystal, and Karl Kerschl—plus we've got a few surprises in store, which we'll share more about in the coming weeks.
🎁 Also, the former insert 'Creator Universe' gets an Upgrade!
Instead of being bound within the magazine, the "Creator Universe" section will now come as a separately printed special edition included in a collector's treasure trove of extras. Thanks to the generosity of our incredible creators, we're stuffing this grab bag with original comics, postcards, posters, stickers, and more exclusive goodies!
📆 Printing & Fulfillment Timeline — we're officially on the books to take BLITZ to print in May, and we're printing locally here in Canada, which means fulfillment will begin by late May or early June. We know it's been a journey, but trust us—it'll be worth the wait!
BLITZ has evolved into something much bigger than we originally conceived — and we're trying to make it as unique, memorable, and purposeful as possible. The extra time you, our amazing backers, have afforded us has helped us achieve this. Thank you for your support and patience.
Thank you again for your patience and belief in BLITZ — we can't wait to get this into your hands!
In the meantime, please enjoy some art from some of the new faces going BLITZ issue 1!
