SHOP TALK.
Hey guys, Megan here! Pull up your calendar and in big red letters write SKOTTIE YOUNG COVER SALE on Thursday, September 10th at 10am CST. This is an awesome group of covers with some instant classics. Stay tuned for detailed scans but here is a sampling of some of what you’ll see! Pricing will be available when sale is live and no advanced sales. Shoot me an email at meganhodges@skottieyoung.com with any other questions!
MORE I HATE FAIRYLAND GIVEAWAYS.
What’s more fun than an art giveaway? NOTHING! We had so much fun sending out the first I HATE FAIRYLAND sketches and hearing from the winners. Look at this next group ready to go to their new homes! Anyone signed up at the annual or BOSS level is eligible. Winners will be emailed from skottieyoungstore@skottieyoung.com so make sure we aren’t in your stupid junk folder and don’t forget to check your PROMOTIONS folders as well.
WHAT’S HAPPENING IN SKOTTIE’S STUDIO?
STRANGE ACADEMY #12 came out on 8/25. Check out some of the reviews here!
Hey, Skottie.
What job would you be just terrible at?
“I’d be a terrible teacher. I rarely actually know HOW or WHY I do anything. I like to just wing it and see how things work out. Also, I can be pretty impatient which isn’t great when dealing with a room full of kids that really need ALL the patience you can give. So, hats off to all you teachers out there!”
We recently made a donation to The Hero Initiative and just wanted to remind everyone of this awesome organization that helps comic creators in need. Keep them in mind if you are looking for a charitable cause to donate to.
Here’s a handy chart to lay out the levels of membership. Skottie’s first announcement newsletter lays it out in greater detail. If you missed that one, our archives can be found HERE. My door is always open at meganhodges@skottieyoung.com. Please send me any question you’ve got!
Holy moly this is awesome!!! I cannot wait for the new issue of SA! I hope the sketch covers don't sell out too quickly! I will definitely be actively refreshing on that Thursday! Thanks for all the great news!!
Sketches look fantastic. The question part at the end was also a nice edition to the weekly roundup, hope it continues.
