Is there still time to pre-order the book? I clicked on the link on the Sakhmet post but it just brings me to the closed Kickstarter.

Direct link to the backer kit in case there's some problems somewhere.

As part of the Wicked + the Divine: The Covers Version we promised finally doing a Sakhmet cover to finish the set.

Here it is.

Jamie and Matt did her proud.

You can still pre-order a copy of it here.

The Wicked + the Divine: The Covers Version Kickstarter

It's been out for a week, but Tumblr wouldn't let us post, so it's been delayed. We've already backed! It's awesome. If you haven't already, you can go nose. The main tiers are...

The Standard Edition - £40

Deluxe Edition including signed bookplater - £75

And there's an edition which adds a high quality print above all of that.

Go nose for all the details! We're pretty pleased with the shipping we've secured too.

Happy 10th WicDiv anniversary (plus a week, because if we were competent, we wouldn't be wicdiv)

Coming soon: The Wicked + The Divine: THE COVERS VERSION

A hardcover art book collecting every cover ever made for the comic book The Wicked + The Divine.

As it's the 10 year anniversary (eek!) of WicDiv, we wanted to do something to celebrate. And so - a kickstarter for a coffeebook of all the covers, plus extras. It'll launch properly next week, so sign up for your reminder.

More details in this week's newsletter from Kieron.

Out today in comic shops, next week in book shops.

Writer Notes: The Wicked + the Divine 45

Spoilers, obv.

Here’s the ticket link.

There’s all the details on the site, in terms of venue and similar.

There’s two ticket prices listed.

$10 General Admission: for those who come to solely dance. $40 Valhalla access: includes other party distractions.

There will be a limited number of tickets on the door on the night, but we’re limited by the Venue’s capacity. We're figuring out an easy upgrade system if you buy a General Admission ticket now, but later decide you want Access to Valhalla. Who are we to deny you.

So many people have been great at helping at this, so there will be applause for everyone. Jazzlyn has told me amazing things, and all the DJs are killer. I also plan to resurrect my old-skool one-sheet Fanzine Darcy’s On The Pull for an evening to hand out to everyone, which is kind of amore Phonogram move, but it’s our party and I’ll hand out crappily photoed zines if I want to.

That link again, for linky clicking.

It will be a lovely time. See folks there.

[wicdiv]

Advance tickets for sale on Saturday 28th at 6pm GMT (1pm EST, 10am PST). 

Limited number of tickets for sale on the door.

There will be dancing.

The Wicked & The Divine’s Creators Look Back at 5 Years of Excellence and Exhaustion

One of the best comics series in the last decade came to an end last week. As you’d expect, writer Kieron Gillen and artist Jamie McKelvie have a lot of thoughts about saying goodbye to The Wicked & The Divine.

This was a lovely interview to do. Lots of spoilery stuff.

Out Today: The Wicked + the Divine 45

The final issue. 

This is Olivia Jaimes’ cover. Jamie/Matt’s is here, but is such a big spoiler for the final issue, I don’t want to put in a newsletter as a bunch of you read in trades.

There’s no preview. You can get it from your local shops or online.

I wrote a proper goodbye in the newsletter. I*n short, thank you. You can sign up to the newsletter here and (IMPORTANT!) Jamie has made a newsletter which you can sign up here for all the HOT! MCKELVIE! GOSS!

Thanks for reading. Doing this has been the greatest honour of my creative life.

As a warm up for tomorrow, here’s the writer notes.

There’s no preview for 45, btw.

[wicdiv]

What is the reading order of WicDiv? Are the TPBs the same? I just found WicDiv and I love it!

At the start of the eighth trade (which collects the specials) it provides the publication order reading list for those who want to read in that order, but the order of release of trades also works.

[wicdiv]

I know you've probably been asked this before but I can't find it, but... Since the final issue is coming out soon, do you have an approximation on when the 4th hardcover will come out? I just started reading and decided to buy the cool hardcovers, but didn't realize they weren't fully caught up yet 😅

It’ll come out next year. The first half, I believe.

[wicdiv]

Out today. WicDiv 44. End of the main story, before the epilogue next issue rounds it off.

I write a bunch about it in the newsletter. Sign up here.
