Only one Kickstarter campaign and hefty valuation because of father's IP. How was father's IP used in the creation of “The Adept”? Thanks, Kevin A: HI Kevin -- thank you for your question(s). #1. The Adept is actually an original creation and not adapted from the Shiao Yi library. This underscores our hybrid approach from modernizing previous titles, and also commissioning new titles, for a dynamic blend of influences, to ultimately have a very diverse and comprehensive universe.​ #2. Valuation. It is pretty rare for a proven, 60+ title, all rights library to be attached to a new company with many other strengths from model, te... - Q: Regarding the sales/delivery channel, backerkit isn't the most friendly delivery channel. Are there other sales channel that you are considering, e.g. on Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble's online store? Also, any comicon or marketing channel plans for next year? Are you going to... A: Hi Liling -- This is an excellent question. We look at Kickstarter as a discovery and activation platform for us, especially for the launch of new titles. This is also a place where we workshop a variety of IP related choices. From there, we will be publishing complete graphic novels through Amazon and Barnes and Noble, and also plan to syndicate our content through a variety of 3rd party platforms including Comixology, Webtoons, to name just a few. Had we not been shutdown by Covid... - Q: Hey, will you stick to Wuxia or will you extend to Xianxia? When I hear 'Immortal' I don't think Wuxia, will there be Qi/cultivation? A: Hi Chanen -- Thank you for your question. By your comfort with these terms, I trust that you are already a fan of the genre(s). It is actually my view that Xianxia, which really is a more recent term, is actually a vital part of Wuxia, which in our definition, is the more comprehensive term. For instance, my father, who wrote many immortal stories, and was one of the few writers who kept that tradition alive in the 70's after it disappeared from the scene, wrote them under the Wuxia banner. A... - Q: Hi Peter. It was good Zooming with you today. I would like to invest more with you, but first I would like to read your next issue and see how "sticky" it is. How long will the wefunder last and how soon can you get the next issue out (sooner than March)? I am hoping to read y... A: Hi Sean -- you know a little bit about our next title than the general public so please keep our creative lineup secret before we make the general announcement in the next few weeks. Our WeFunder campaign is currently expected to end in March, and our next book is going live on Kickstarter on 3/1, so you may not have the opportunity to sample our next book in its entirety before deciding to invest more. There is pickle, however, you should know - that for reasons I shared with you already, we... - Q: Hi Peter, I am interested in investing, but I am also wondering if you accept submissions. I write teen superhero novels and would like to adapt my critically-acclaimed MG/YA novel into a comic book ( some of my characters are adept at martial arts, so they should fit into you... A: Hi Paul, Thank you very much for your question, and for your interest in submitting to us. The easy answer is yes, that from time to time we do accept "solicited" submissions. However, because we are building a story world that is unique to our aesthetics and our take on the wuxia genre, it is something that is different from the superhero genre. However, even if for whatever reason the story is not right for us, we'd be happy to offer you some suggestions on comic adaptations and how you mig...
