Olympus Legions!
Shipping begins tomorrow! Stretch goal packs have been dropped off to the printer and they have the printing presses running! One change in the stretch goal pack items, the enamel pins needed to be replaced with acrylic pins in the stretch goal packs due to the enamel pins printing terribly. New enamel pins would have taken too long to reprint so we went with acrylic to prevent further delays.
Earlier in the week I headed over to the printer to sign the Kickstarter edition, 5 tables full like this, and that's just the "Snow Suit Sunrise":
Tomorrow they will begin shipping and will continue shipping over the next few weeks. If you have any questions please email [email protected]
Patriotika United 3 Kickstarter work continues and will arrive sometime mid to late summer on Kickstarter. Here is the finished cosplay outfit by Amaterasu Mikami, She will be wearing it for a new cosplay variant:

Olympus Legions!
I hope you are all doing ok during these difficult times.
If you added on Patriotika United 3 digital and or United 3 digital lineart during the campaign or during the survey you should have received an email with the download links. If you did not please email or message me. I'd love to hear what you think of it but please do not post spoilers for those who prefer to read the physical copies. If you are missing any digital downloads please send me a message or an email and I will get them over to you.
Speaking of the physical copies, the printers are hard at work on the books and stretch goal items. They already started on issue 2 but the issue 3 files only got to them today. There were some lettering issues on issue 3 but that has been resolved. If they print and ship as fast as they did with Valkyrie Saviors 3 Kickstarter, everything should be shipped by mid to late March. If you had a change of address please email [email protected] I am sorry for the delays, the lenticulars took much longer than in the past to arrive as well as some other issues due to current events. Please email me if you have any questions or send a message on Kickstarter.
In more Patriotika news, Patriotika arrived in the League of Maidens video game today! They just launched their open Alpha and the Patriotika outfit is one of the many outfits available in their shop! Check it out here:

The 3D Lenticulars had several delays coming from abroad(I think they shipped them later than I was told) but are finally scheduled to arrive to me later this coming week! Once I receive them I will send the covers off to the printers to make the books and will use the other 3D lenticulars for assembling the stretch goal pack rewards. Because of the delay of the lenticulars arriving to me, shipping will be most likely be around the end of February. However, this means if you added on a physical copy of issue 3, it will be shipped together with your other items instead of later! This is because Issue 3 is now complete except for lettering! Lettering should be finished by the end of this week or early the following week. Once I get the lettered pages I will also send out the digital download for issue 3 for backers that added it on. If you backed Valkyrie Saviors 3, we will be using the same printer and fulfillment team. Feedback has been very positive for the new fulfillment team and printer. If you have any questions or have a change of address please email [email protected] If you emailed about a change of address in the last two weeks and did not hear back a confirmation email from me, please email again. I have had some backer emails going straight to the spam folder.
The Samurai of Oz 3 Kickstarter is in the final week! I have some fun stuff planned for each of the final days leading up to the end of the Kickstater on February 5th 8PM PST. Please consider checking it out if you haven't already:

I also recently shared the Road Map for Mount Olympus Comics 2021-2023 on our Facebook page, more info below:
Here is a higher resolution of the Road Map:

A little more info on some of the new titles:
Mad Wolf and Cop is about super powered police officer Gwen(from Patriotika) and Ex-Mercenary Mad Wolf! Two very different individuals brought together by fate to deal with the various super powered crime syndicates and villainous hybrids around New Haven City - the same city Patriotika and Collateral Dee reside in! Vampires, werewolves, ninjas, hybrids and more! Currently in the works with anime style interior!
Maiden Metal is about a girl that just wants to go to raves and have fun but wakes up one day as the most advanced piece of machinery on earth! Her memories are scrambled and fuzzy, the government and sinister agencies are hunting her down, but she just wants to find out how this happened and where her missing parents are! She also resides in New Haven City and will be running into and possibly away from the other heroes while learning just how powerful her new body is!
Samurai of Wonderland is set in the same Universe as Samurai of Oz! Alice must claw, slash and blood drain her way through a zombie and monster filled Wonderland to find a cure for herself and her sister! Will the blood lust make her a monster before it's too late?
Claws and Bullets is inspired by Gargoyles and Thundercats and set in the same universe as Patriotika! This mercenary hybrid team runs missions to protect or detain other hybrids, while keeping Beast City safe and secret from the rest of the world! Secrets don't stay hidden for long though...
Myth Mercs is a futuristic team hopping across multiple universes to find allies against a threat to all existence! Inspired by "Exiles" and "What If"!
More details will be revealed about Samurai of Neverland and Chronicles of Orion in the coming months. Please keep in mind everything is subject to change, some things may move up or move back on the timeline, but everything on the map is being worked on at different stages. Lost Samurai Girls is planned for 2023 or later.
More updates soon!

Lenticulars are well on their way to me. They should be here in the next couple weeks as things have been slow with postal services due to current events. Once I receive them we'll start assembling stretch goal packs and drop them off to the printers to get the books going. Once they finish then we begin fulfillment direct from the printer so everything will be as mint as possible!
Here's a look at the Real 3D cover, keep in mind these previews were sent to me from the printer abroad:
