Something Is Killing The Children #0 and UPDATE on 2nd Printing of Absolute Batman #1
Celebrate 5 years with Stupid Fresh Mess!
Hi guys! Megan here. Stupid Fresh Mess is having a birthday today! We are FIVE years old! On October 23, 2019 we went live with our lil website- dropped some prints and original art and crossed our fingers. I was too nervous to quit my “real” job and figured I’d work a few hours a few days a week for Skottie. Bwahahahahahaha. That escalated quickly. My “real” job was now very full time at Stupid Fresh Mess.
As part of the celebration we are offering FREE SHIPPING on domestic orders over $50 through the end of October!

Something Is Killing The Children #0
Skottie did a daily sketch of Erica Slaughter in August 2023. Man, I got a lot of emails and inquires about this one.
I think it always stuck with Skottie that he’d like to do something more with it. Well, It’s been five years since the debut of the smash hit, Something is Killing the Children. A half decade, and forty issues since Erica Slaughter arrived in Archer’s Peak. Now, a critical chapter from her past is revealed in SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN #0! It was time to do something with that Daily Sketch idea… our own EXCLUSIVE! Make that EXCLUSIVES!
This will be a smaller print run- Cover A: 1,500 copies and Cover B: 500 copies. Something Is Killing The Children #0 will drop live at skottieyoung.com on
MONDAY, OCTOBER 28TH AT 10AM CST

Absolute Batman #1 Second Printing
With 5 years under our belt, we still regularly run into the unexpected. It turns out our 2,500 print run of Absolute Batman #1 is now more like… 2,000. We inspected, signed and bagged and boarded hundreds of beautiful Batman covers and sent them on their way to our fulfillment partner as we always do. Unfortunately Absolute Batman and the rest of the UPS truck contents were involved in a fiery crash in the countryside of Indiana. We fully jacked up Skottie’s regularly scheduled days and fit another signing in. These newly signed copies will be making their way to you this week. Thank you for your patience. We are now fully sold out of individual signed copies with just a small handful of the signed All-In sets of 3 available. Inventory is also moving fast on unsigned copies. I do expect we will sell out.
The exciting news is that we decided to jump in on the SECOND PRINTING of Absolute Batman #1! It will be a black and white ink version of the art with a virgin cardstock cover. Just 1,000 copies available and dropping at the same time as Something Is Killing The Children #0.
Well dang it. Unfortunately we need to cancel our 2nd printing. The entire print run was just not up to our standards and expectations. We’ve made the decision not to reprint due to the wacky, fun goals we have to close out 2024 and we just don’t want to interrupt those. Thanks for your understanding! This is an incredible storyline and book and we are so happy to be a part of it.

We’ve added some CGC Signature Series 9.8’s for WHAT IF MINNIE BECAME CAPTAIN MARVEL #1. A lot of people have asked if we’ll have raw sets of THE 8 DEATHS OF SPIDER-MAN available. It’s likely but since these titles stretch through February we’ll wait until much closer to time to access what we have for available inventory.
