Steamroller Man #2 Kickstarter Hits 450% — Plus Comic Con Revolution Ontario This Weekend!
From the Kickstarter front page to the convention floor — it's been quite a week in Kurtzberg City!
Hi!
I just wanted to give you an update on a few things happening this week in the world of Steamroller Man!
Comic Con Revolution Ontario THIS WEEKEND!
If you’re going to be in Southern California this weekend and want to get a dose of geeky goodness, come out to the city of Ontario to see me and a bunch of other comic-making folks at Comic Con Revolution! I had a great time tabling at this one last year, and this year’s show looks to be even bigger and better! Marvel Comics legends Chris Claremont and John Romita Jr are both going to have tables in Artists’ Alley, along with many other comic pros, so I’m hoping to give them both a copy of Steamroller Man #1!

Media Appearances!!
Podcast host Kristian Horn graciously had me back on his show to talk about Steamroller Man #2, The Simpsons, and to promote the Kickstarter! I always have a good time talking to him! To listen to our conversation, click the picture above!
I also went LIVE on my friend Tommy Huls’ World At War Comics podcast on the weekend - the first time I’ve ever done a live YouTube show! Tommy has been a fan and supporter of Steamroller Man from the earliest days of the comic, so I always love talking to him! This time was no exception!
The Kickstarter Rolls Along Nicely!
Ever since I started even thinking about doing my first Kickstarter, I noticed some projects denoted by a classification called “Projects We Love” and thought it would be cool if one day I did a campaign that would be deemed worthy of that distinction. Well, it happened on Day One of this campaign, and it made my day!
Being a Project We Love means the campaign is featured on the front page of the Comics category of Kickstarter’s website, giving it high visibility, which will hopefully result in more people taking a look and maybe even making a pledge!
The campaign is currently on Day 3 and is going GREAT!
As of this writing we have 80 backers and have exceeded the funding goal by almost 450%! The first Stretch Goal (three bonus digital comics) has been achieved and the next one (a shiny, glittery Steamroller Man logo sticker) is within reach!
If we reach 100 backers OR $5000 in total funding, every physical reward will come with one of these cool stickers!
If you’ve already backed the campaign, THANK YOU SO MUCH for your support! It means the world to me. If you haven’t made the leap yet but are thinking now’s the time, click the button below to be taken to the campaign page!
Thanks for being part of this journey with me!
Keep Rolling!
Matt
Congratulations, Matt!
