We're back!
http://www.therockcocks.com/comic/page-181
Sorry for the long wait! These last couple of pages have been really complicated, and honestly, we just needed a break from the constant work. I think this page looks a lot better as a result of us able to actually take our time with it. Don't worry, you'll get two pages this week, which leads us to our next point...
We added a new milestone! The goal: THREE comics a week. The amount: $2300 a month
. Now, I'm not going to sit here and beg and plead you to spend more money on us. You've all given us so much, and I can't stress how grateful we are for every single cent you give us. We couldn't do this comic we love with you! But that said, people have been asking us if we're going to add a new milestone, and this is the only thing we can think of to work towards.
We want nothing more than to do Rock Cocks three times a week. We want to update it as much as possible, honestly. We've got a story we want to tell, dammit. The only problem standing in our way is, sadly, our other comic, Blaster Nation. We also love that comic, too, but as I'm sure most people have noticed, Rock Cocks is rightfully more of a priority to us. So, we're considering winding Blaster Nation down to just one update a week, which will allow us to push Rock Cocks up to three comics a week.
That brings us to the amount. $2300. It's a lot of money, no doubt, but trust me, it's justified. Blaster Nation pays the entirety of our rent with its ad revenue, so if we're knocking it down to 1 a week, we need to cover at least a good bit of it. The money you give us goes towards our food, bills, healthcare, absurdly large taxes, living expenses and the occasional video game for me/anime figurine for Leslie. Without Blaster Nation, we'd have a really hard time making it by even with your extremely generous contributions, so to make sure we can stay afloat and won't have to take on additional freelance work, we figured $2300 would be a reasonable amount.
So, thank you. Again, we're not going to put a heavy push towards this new milestone. We'll keep doing the same thing we've been doing with the once-a-month Patreon reward teasers. This is mostly to give newcomers an incentive to push for if they so choose to. All of you reading this now have already given us so much, and there isn't a single day where we're not grateful that we get to do this comic because of you. So please, don't feel pressured. You're all wonderful. Thank you so much!
Rewards will be going out around June 3rd! Expect a new page probably around then, too! See you soon!
