After four long years, GOTH WESTERN is finally coming to print!

The fine folks at Hiveworks are crowdfunding production of a paperback edition of the comic, the first time it will be printed in its entirety! This is very exciting for me! I had been working with Hiveworks for a while about running something like this, but just as the wheels were beginning to turn in earnest, the pandemic hit and I don’t think I have to elaborate about what that does to plans.

In addition to the comic itself, the print volume will include a 22-page bonus story exploring how Jack and Evie met, and the beginning of their romance. You can also get this side story on its own through the crowdfund page, if that’s more your speed, but please consider pledging for the print volume and helping us meet our goal!

There are also some extra goodies available for those who pledge more, such as an exclusive print and sticker, and a 3D-printed bronze pendant! Check ‘em out at the crowdfund page!

The print volume of GOTH WESTERN will only be made possible if we reach our goal by October 23rd, so get those pledges in and tell your friends! Check out the crowdfund by clicking this link or any of the others I have sprinkled liberally through this text!

Magic, gunfire, flowers and blood! Goth Western - The Complete Edition, is now available on Hivemill! 🌺

For the mysterious gunslinger known only as “Jack,” Love’s Saloon is a haven in the desert, not least due to the presence of the charming proprietress, Evelyn Love. When Evelyn is killed in a shootout, Jack sells her soul to the God of Doomed Lovers to bring her back. The two must then embark on a mission: to deliver the god’s bloody vengeance to a man who’s been hunting the god’s other chosen.

Discover this compelling western story about selling your soul for love, and how necromancy may not fix all your problems, but it’s a start. A perfect read for Lesbian Visibility Week 👀

The ebook / book is HERE!

animaepanda asked:

Hello! I recently discovered your webcomic and saw that in late 2023, you were sending out physical copies of your webcomic to those who joined in the crowdfunding, but when I checked the Hivemill store, it doesn't have it listed. I was hoping that maybe I could buy a copy even though the crowdfunding is over? Is this possible? If not, its totally fine!

Hello, thanks for getting in touch! I’m so glad you liked the comic!

This ask prompted me to check with Hiveworks, and they got the books and such from the crowdfund put up in the shop! The link below should take you there.

Bit late, I assume but I found the comic through one of Tumblr's blog ads. I just wanna say that I was pulled in quick and didn't stop until the end. Jack's (same name, actually; just different gender! Hahaha) speech on page 66 really resonated a lot with me as someone who very recently found love like that. That said, were the gods made up for the comic or do they belong to an actual pantheon? I got curious and googled but found nothing.

Thank you, I’m so glad you liked the comic! Sorry for the uh,,, approximately 5-year-late response to this message. I left Tumblr for a while!

The gods are made up for the comic. There’s going to be a little section in the forthcoming print volume that has a little more detail about each of them.

devotedlystarstruckartisan asked:

Did you delete your comic on Tapastic ? I can't find it there anymore (also take your time responding to this !! I know your tumblr is inactive)

Oh hey uh… I just saw this. You were correct that I was inactive!! I did remove it from Tapastic, because I signed with Hiveworks to produce a print volume, and my contract prohibited crossposting on other websites. We held a successful crowdfund for that recently, and additional copies should be available once fulfillment for the crowdfund is completed. The comic is still free to read online, and can be accessed at gothwestern.com!

Sorry for the incredibly late reply!!

The nice folks at Hiveworks said that even though we’re funded I should keep up promo until the crowdfund is over instead of lying in a pile of leaves and trying to process my emotions, so: pledge to my crowdfund and get your goodies, we’ve got a day and change left to go!
