Mark Dos Santos, the incredible artist responsible for the Sideshow Edition Cover, has offered to give up the ORIGINAL HAND-PAINTED ART for one very lucky backer. It has been added as a tier on the Kickstarter. If you're lucky and I don't just steal it for myself.  ;) We love you all. You're the reason we get to make this cool shit.

 Exclusive Cross Promotion Pinup - SIXTIES TWINSIES!

As some of you may know, our very own Laurie Foster is an occasional cosplayer! Several months ago, after having read Bloom #1, Laurie commented on a thread saying she loved the issue and was thinking about a Regina cosplay. To which Bloom creator/writer Ted Sikora replied…“best idea for a cross promotion EVER!”

Our companies have been waiting for several months for releases to align. Laurie has read Bloom #1-#3 since then and is totally obsessed with the series!! 

So, without further ado, here it is!! Backers of both Bloom 1-4 and Miss Medusa's Monstrous Menagerie AT ANY SHIPPED TIER will also receive a signed print of Laurie Foster as Regina (signed by Laurie) with your physical rewards! It turns out that crazy shit wasn't only just happening at carnivals in the sixties! Is it possible that Ramsey actually saw Miss Medusa's show at some point?!

CHECK OUT BLOOM #1-#4 RIGHT HERE AND GET SOME OF THESE UNBELIEVABLE COVERS WITH THE SIGNED CROSS-PROMO PRINT!!

The year is 1969. Ramsey is an aspiring comic book artist who is  trying to find inspiration for his femme fatale. When he meets wild dancer, Regina, at a street fair he invites her into the woods for a character photoshoot where she begins to break on through to the other side. Witness the psycho-delic origin of the most powerful character in the Hero Tomorrow Comics universe. A mind-bending 4-issue journey to reshape your reality!
