We unlocked all the mini-issue pieces AND the Great Beyond sticker! It's too late for us to be using this many exclamation points, but we're still doing it!!! Year 2 is starting in style, and it is going to be great!

Our art director is working right now on the mini-issue cover layout and it is BEAUTIFUL. It would be fantastic if we could send 9 wondrous pieces instead of 6 to all our backers! We are very very very close.
