In an overwhelming show of support and enthusiasm for diverse storytelling and indie comics, we are thrilled to announce that "Dark Sentinel" has reached its Kickstarter funding goal! This milestone is a testament to the power of community, the importance of representation in media, and the collective desire for change that resonates with each of us. From the depths of our hearts, we extend our sincerest gratitude to everyone who pledged, shared, and believed in the vision of "Dark Sentinel" and the expansive universe of the Way of Paman.

But We're Not Done Yet – Stretch Goals Await!

Reaching our initial funding goal is just the beginning. With the campaign still in motion, we're excited to introduce Stretch Goals to enhance your experience and ensure the continued growth of the "Dark Sentinel" saga. Here's what's on the horizon:

First Stretch Goal: $2,500 – A "Dark Sentinel" Bookmark for All Physical Backers

Our first Stretch Goal will gift every backer of physical tiers a beautifully designed "Dark Sentinel" bookmark. This exclusive piece will not only mark your place in your favorite stories but also serve as a token of our appreciation for your support.

Beyond the Bookmark – More to Unlock

Reaching our Stretch Goal of $2,500 is just the start. We have more milestones planned, each designed to unlock additional rewards and expedite the production of "Dark Sentinel" Issue 2 and beyond. Additional funds will directly contribute to ramping up the art production, ensuring that the visual storytelling matches the depth and intensity of the narrative.

The Impact of Your Support

Every dollar beyond our initial goal propels us further into the Way of Paman universe, allowing us to bring new characters and stories to life more rapidly. Your support enables us to not only enhance the quality of "Dark Sentinel" but also to expand the narrative scope, exploring themes that resonate with our diverse audience and providing a platform for voices that need to be heard.
