NEW Comic Issue RELEASED Today!
I AM QIDO #1 -The Extended Preview is available EXCLUSIVELY in our store... come get details on WHAT this is and WHY this is...
All this week we have been revealing NEW merch, UPDATED merch, and more. Today we get to announce something we are SUPER STOKED about - and that’s the RELEASE OF:
The I AM QIDO #1 Extended Preview PDF issue!
So let us explain WHAT this is, WHY this is, and HOW you can get your hands on it!
So WHAT is this?
If I AM QIDO was a mini-series, instead of a one-shot graphic novel, this is what Issue #1 would be. The first chapter of the story ends with a pretty significant swerve and cliffhanger, and by doing this, it gives those moments a chance to be the focal point (for a short time). This also lines up with the lyrics to the theme song, SPIRAL INTO MADNESS, and help make sense of QIDO’s perspective there.
Haven’t heard the theme song? Take a listen and watch the LYRIC VIDEO here!
So WHY is this?
While we’re finishing up the graphic novel and getting it ready for print (the number of pages to complete dwindles daily), we wanted to do this to so that people could start enjoying and experiencing our tragic tale of an Empire’s Ultimate demise NOW. The WHY is twofold: One- This gives our campaign backers an unexpected, extra benefit. Two- For those that are curious, but aren’t a part of the first group (campaign backers), you’ve now got an easy and inexpensive entry point into the story.
So HOW can I get my hands on this?
We’re glad you asked! If you are an I AM QIDO campaign backer, you already have access for no charge. Just check your SURVEY; the link is at the top. If you missed it when filling out your survey, let us know and we’ll hook you up.
Otherwise, this is available (Digital ONLY) in our online store at the link below:

We hope you enjoy it, and we’d love to hear your feedback. The early comments back from those that have already partaken has been highly positive, and so we’re definitely feeling like this was the right thing to do. We hope YOU’LL feel the same way after reading it!
*** That’s all for today, but if you missed it, here are some other items we’ve shared in our previous updates, including GLOW IN THE DARK PICS, GLOW IN THE DARK shirts, and an EXCLUSIVE I AM QIDO STORE COVER that’s only available through us though 12.22.23! And if you’re a campaign backer and you HAVEN’T filled out that survey, go do it as soon as you can, thanks!
GLOW IN THE DARK GUITAR PICKS!
One of our most popular items at live events is our GLOW IN THE DARK HEIRS/NOCTURNIA guitar picks, so we decided to get a set for I AM QIDO! One side has the DUAL SERPENTS logo, the other has the SOUL RIPPER logo. They’re available for pre-order on our site or as add-ons to the campaign.

‘SOUL RIPPER’ SHIRTS WILL NOW BE GLOW IN THE DARK!
We’ve also updated the SOUL RIPPER shirts that were available during the campaign, and now this design will all be GLOW IN THE DARK. We got the prototypes in and they were completely badass, so we decided to make them all this way!

*** If you’re a campaign backer - the SURVEYS are now out as well. Get those filled out and back to us as soon as possible! There are also a few links in there that YOU have access to before anyone else!
And don’t forget about our update from yesterday - we’ve revealed the super rare BEARDED BROWNCOAT Store Variant Cover - The ‘Beard Ripper’!
EXCLUSIVE STORE COVER VARIANT REVEAL:
THE BEARDED BROWNCOAT ‘BEARD RIPPER’!
ONLY AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER THROUGH 12.22.23!
Bearded Browncoat Comics & Games is at it again. This time out their store exclusive cover is the I AM QIDO 'BEARD RIPPER', a mashup of their store logo and our SOUL RIPPER logo. They allow us the ability for a SMALL window of online sales for those who aren't in the area, but want one of these super rare exclusives.
How this works: The store will get the hand numbered copies 01-10. Any additional orders will start with 11 and go upwards. The number of printed copies will increase ONLY by the number of issues ordered prior to printing (so it could be a limited run of 17, 28, 35, etc... just based on the number sold.) After our small online window, you can ONLY get these from the store itself.
IMPORTANT: If you are a PHYSICAL TIER BACKER for the I AM QIDO KICKSTARTER campaign, you can obtain this free of shipping. Contact us and we'll tell you how. Otherwise, you can order through our website here:
PRE-ORDER THE BEARD RIPPER VARIANT HERE!
Cost is $29 (the standard Graphic Novel version is $19 so that's a pretty solid value for the store exclusive).
*** We’ll be back later this week with some MORE news!
That’s all for now. Exciting Times!
