Richard Cox

Hi, I'm Richard.  I script, pencil, ink, and letter web comics, in partnership with some amazing colorists. Firstly is a faithful <a href="http://www.sequentialmatinee.com/princess/" rel="nofollow">adaptation </a><a href="http://www.sequentialmatinee.com/princess/" rel="nofollow">of Edgar Rice Burroughs' A Princess of Mars</a> that has been moving along for several years with the talented <a href="http://www.patreon.com/boatwrightartwork" target="_blank">Thomas Boatwright</a> on colors. You should really go <a href="http://sequentialmatinee.com/princess/2012/04/24/chapter-1-on-the-arizona-hills/" rel="nofollow">check it out from the beginning</a> - for those who've found it, it's something they really enjoyed: <blockquote> "thank you for making a true adaptation of this wonderful story and not watering it down and making it ‘safe and nudity free’ like most other lame adaptations have." "The art here is bold, lovely, and unafraid." "The artwork for this is really beautiful, and really does the series justice."</blockquote><div style="text-align: center;"> <img src="https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2917/14599754260_78d9355b4e_z.jpg"> </div> Via this Patreon, we've brought back John Carter. We're finishing Chapter 2, moving into Chapter 3 and continuing until the book is finished.  And then we can finish the trilogy, together with your support. And that's just the beginning! At higher milestones we get to the really awesome stuff.  Because I have this little creator-owned thing I call HighJump. <div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://highjumpcomic.tumblr.com/" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8759/16491796243_2aaf2db27d_o.jpg"></a> </div> <a href="http://highjumpcomic.tumblr.com" rel="nofollow">Highjump</a> details the adventures of a 1940s pulp heroine fighting Nazis, and robots, and mad scientists, and femme fatales. Maybe Nazi femme fatales with robots. Because you never know. I've gotten the entire prelude story - all 12ish pages - plotted and thumbnailed.  I have the entire first arc - graphic novel in length- plotted out.  I just have to get to the point where it's economically feasible for me to start working on it.  And again, that's where you come in.  Did I mention there are aliens and Lovecraftian beasts? Because there are.  And femme fatales! Donations are monthly but you can change or cancel your donation at any time. <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5565/14806554463_1359af242c_z.jpg"> </div>

Free

You're an awesome supporter of the arts, and as a reward (beyond your inherent awesomeness) you'll get behind-the scenes access. I'm talking all of my works 
in progress - even the stuff I can't show publicly - and won't, as 
you'll have access to it through my private Patreon blog. I'm talking 
commissions, sketch card sets in progress, announcements of future work,
 maybe some tutorials, etc.

So, double the contribution and what do you get? The PDF package! A PDF of Chapter 1 of A Princess of Mars after 6 months of support AND, upon completion, a PDF of any and all comic releases going forward.  You'll also get the same behind-the-scenes access as at the $1 tier.

The PDF Package

You'll not only get all of the benefits of The PDF Package but additionally the beautiful 11x17 A Princess of Mars: On The Arizona Hills art print shown here after a year of support. The print is on a good, high-quality 80# stock, and I plan to be rotating out prints as necessary in order to keep this reward level fresh.

The PDF+ Package

This is a sweet spot reward! You'll get all of the benefits of The PDF Package PLUS:

<li>Hardcopies/floppies of the comics themselves at approximately the same time (6 month intervals or as soon as available).  </li>
<li>Convention Access - early access to my pre-con commission list. I only attend 2-3 conventions a year, and take 3-4 pre-con commissions each. You all will get dibs on these very limited slots! You'll ALSO have the opportunity to grab a place on my con sketch list before the convention opens! Please note this doesn't include the cost of a convention commission nor a con sketch.</li>
</ul>
