Would you buy a physical copy of NLB for 30-40$?
Added 2019-09-21 10:15:51 +0000 UTCI want to see how many people would actually be interested in a book so I know how big of a print to get.
Remember that this is 250-pages which is more than the usual page count for standard single manga volumes. Hence the printing costs will be quite high. I also plan to make it slightly larger than standard but still with a soft cover.

@kipteiei any plans to release these and the patreon waifus in a set of zips? It's hard to get to the older posts on patreon. :(

2019-09-23 21:53:22 +0000 UTCby "soft cover", obviously you mean sydney will have a squeezable belly a la those oppai mousepads, rite :^)

2019-09-23 12:06:12 +0000 UTCI would Pay $100 for it but that`s me I love your Work Kip

2019-09-22 19:59:41 +0000 UTCThis is true, but there are also people who will say nothing at all and would buy given the chance that it's made readily available. By the looks of it print-on-demand kind of service is what I'll be looking at.
Kipteitei
2019-09-22 15:36:53 +0000 UTCGo with kickstarter. A lot of people say yes, but when it actually come to buying - many will disappear. On kickstarter people may vote with their money, not with their words.
2019-09-22 14:55:27 +0000 UTCI think I’m the typical. Really do want a copy, but I’m still trying to keep my fetish hidden. It would likely be hidden and ultimately be found by my niece.

2019-09-22 14:54:59 +0000 UTCBesides, it could help us identify each other in the streets! Think about it~ It would be like a secret code only Kip fans would recognize LOL

2019-09-22 08:39:50 +0000 UTCI would absolutely love to have a copy, but I would really like to keep my fat fetish a secret from the people I know irl, and the less physical evidence I have, the better. However, if you made t-shirts, tote bags, and other type of merchandise with subtle designs inspired in your characters without explicit fats, I WOULD CONSIDER BUYING THAT! And most of us would appreciate that type of merchandise because 1. We will be supporting your work. 2. We won’t need to hide your merchandise! Instead, we would proudly use it in our daily lives without worrying about anyone finding out we like fatties. ...Unless they tried to dig deeper on finding out where those characters come from, but in my experience most people just ask for the sake of conversation but don’t search for it later.
Mirameika
2019-09-22 08:33:39 +0000 UTCI would absolutely love to buy it, I have been thinking about it for probably the entire running of this series! However I think I would be so stressed out that someone would find it, and would not be able to stop thinking about that factor of it. And being the werido that I am, I think about what would happen if I move or start a family and one of my kids or significant other finds it, how that would all go down. And I don't want to have to throw it away to get rid of evidence of me having it! So tldr: yes and no

2019-09-22 06:22:25 +0000 UTCTbh I wasn't sure about getting a physical book, cuz i'd die of embarrassment. The last update tho with how cute the relationship it was just too wholesome. Plus getting it would be a great way to show support!
RexicanSasquatch
2019-09-22 04:20:47 +0000 UTCDidn't comment earlier, but that doesn't seem an unreasonable price for a custom print. I love your art & stories, so I would definitely be interested. I've mostly transitioned to digital, but it's cool having favorite stuff in physical.

2019-09-22 00:38:32 +0000 UTCI like the old cover but I'd likely make a more polished one for the final version. Thank you very much for your interest!
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 19:10:36 +0000 UTCI would gladly buy a volume of this if at all else to support you. This comic has been amazing and very high quality. I know a couple people in my area that are interested as well so good luck with the print. I'm just more curious what would be the cover or would you use the front cover you made in the beginning of No Lunch? I look forward to it either way!
Sullied Grace
2019-09-21 19:06:41 +0000 UTCIf more than a couple hundred are interested I'll definitely need to get a print. There's a certain quality to having a physical quality as a collective item that I totally understand, it's not for convenience.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 18:45:01 +0000 UTCThank you!
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 18:44:03 +0000 UTCVery happy to hear that!
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 18:43:48 +0000 UTCIf you just want a pdf I can give that out for free once I get it done
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 18:43:14 +0000 UTCI'd give $5 maybe 10 for an eBook
Indigo
2019-09-21 18:34:06 +0000 UTCThat's gonna be my problem, but hopefully I will find a relatively easy solution.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:40:33 +0000 UTCOnce in a lifetime chance to get your share of dinosaur parts!
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:39:42 +0000 UTCYeah I'd of course try to make it as affordable as possible.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:39:06 +0000 UTCYeah I'm very aware of this issue, it's why I hesitated on this in the first place but seems there's a fair amount of people interested in it anyway.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:38:42 +0000 UTCI would obviously ship it in a package that's discreet so no worries!
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:38:05 +0000 UTCWhat about it? If you're saying they are cheaper that's obvious as they have tens of thousands of units printed not to mention professional logistics and distribution services. You shouldn't compare self-published products to a commercial one.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 17:37:44 +0000 UTCAbsolutely, I want to support you and you've put a ton of work into this. Just try not to make the cover TOO risque :P
Kerma
2019-09-21 16:05:13 +0000 UTCI agree with this man Kip!!!!
ThexDeadxGuy
2019-09-21 16:04:51 +0000 UTCYes, I will buy it. I will camp in front of the mailbox so my roommate doesn’t get to it first and I will hide it somewhere nobody will ever find it but yes I will buy it ❤️
Serious Cattitude
2019-09-21 15:53:41 +0000 UTCMy girlfriend and I have been reading no lunch break for a while now and we both would be happy to purchase your work :3
Justaddwater64
2019-09-21 15:33:36 +0000 UTCThe price makes sense, but the real problem is having physical evidence lol
Streamtiem
2019-09-21 15:10:26 +0000 UTCDepends if it is Color/BW, the paper type, how chonky/big the book is, any slight revisions to art you weren't fully satisfied originally cause of time constraints. Heck id probably buy it anyway just cause the thiccc
Geb Baserr
2019-09-21 14:24:20 +0000 UTC@Kipteitei i dont care about the price of your comic turning into a book,id gladly buy it

2019-09-21 13:41:44 +0000 UTCPhysical media is slowly dying and so are we.
Shapeshifter6
2019-09-21 13:26:47 +0000 UTCMaybe take orders from a handful of people? I'm a digital media type person so I don't see the appeal, but I can understand some people wanting a copy they can hold in their hands.
Oxdarock
2019-09-21 12:56:56 +0000 UTCI'll certainly buy one for that price, but I worry about the logistics of arranging deliveries around the world.
Phat94
2019-09-21 12:15:49 +0000 UTCThat's a bit on the edge because I don't know if it can cover the costs yet... but I'll try to make it as cheap as possible. Sadly printing small batches is very expensive.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 11:49:50 +0000 UTCFor 25

2019-09-21 11:43:13 +0000 UTCI mean I bought a physical CD of gay furry stuff from Red Rusker so why not? >.>

2019-09-21 11:16:16 +0000 UTCNLB, BwS, all your series, I'd pay whatever.
The Mighty Helix
2019-09-21 11:13:56 +0000 UTCYou don't really have to consider this poll if you're not interested. It's only to get some kind of idea how many people would like to buy one.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 10:52:30 +0000 UTCI'd pay that much for BwS, since that's like the OG series.
Nevoki
2019-09-21 10:34:01 +0000 UTCNot a doubt in my mind I would!
GV-97
2019-09-21 10:20:36 +0000 UTCLol if I do make one I'll send you one for free absolutely. Color printing is a lot more expensive but I could make a smaller batch and sell that to people who want. But I'll focus on the b&w first.
Kipteitei
2019-09-21 10:19:30 +0000 UTCAre there any plans to have a colorized version? If so, I'm gonna feel obligated to get one.

2019-09-21 10:17:59 +0000 UTCAbsolutely! 110% 😻
