Hey mobsters!

We just crossed the 67% funded mark! Thanks for being so awesome! We have 13 days left to hit it hard and cross that finish line. 

In other exciting news, I worked out a really awesome crossover with the team at Swamp Line Productions! They have their second issue of Toothville live right now and it looks absolutely crazy!

These guys make some rad books and we have joined forces to create some cool bonuses for our backers.

When Italiano crosses the 100 backer mark, we will unlock the first full issue of Toothville as a digital download for all our backers! Now who doesn't love bonus comics?! 

To sweeten the deal even further, if you back both books we will give you 2 exclusive digital trading cards!

You can check out Toothville here

So let's keep building the Italiano family, grab these sweet bonuses, and crush this goal! Keep spreading the word and let's get some backers on the team.

I'm so jacked up to get this book in your hands! This has been a lifelong dream of mine and I can't even explain the mix of emotions running through me on a daily basis. So nerve wrecking!

I'm making great progress on production, only a couple pages left to ink, a few weeks worth of laying down some mind blowing colors, and this baby will be ready for print. So let's band together like a bunch of goombas, and push this thing over the finish line hey!!

Thanks for your support
