TAKE OFF Physical Book - Suggestion/Feedback Pool (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone! So I've been working on Take Off Volume 1, the physical copy of Take Off Season 1, converting the scroll-form comic into a page-form book!! I wanted to gauge everyone's interest and see if anyone's got suggestions/feedback!
1. Inclusion of Extra Comics
I'm unsure whether or not to include extra comics in it such as the kids AU, Andrew in Wonderland and etc. Season 1 was intended as the whole comic so it's complete on its own and I'm not sure if including other things would feel disruptive or irrelevant? Also to note: Season 1's book will be completely SFW due to the nature of its content and will not include NSFW extras!!!
2. Special Editions + Merch
The standard copy is expected to be A5 size paperback. I am wondering if there is interest for a hardcopy version? Beyond that, I would love to make bundle editions where merch is included. But the alternative is to sell everything separately where you can have the option to choose and shop!
Please let me know if there is interest in merch besides the book! And if there's any ideas for merch feel free to drop your ideas in the comments below!!
3. Distribution Methods
This relates to the point above! I've been thinking about doing a kickstarter/crowdfunding campaign, in which pledgers would have the option to select the package they want which could range from pdf version of the book, all the way to a very special edition/signed copy with exclusive merch etc. But having no experience in this, I am a little nervous and hesitant...! And honestly, I'm scared of it failing🥹 But it would be a challenge and a personal milestone!
Otherwise, the book will be sold online when I launch my store. It's something I've been working on for a while and I've finally reached an agreement to work with a store fulfilment company based in the U.S., so that's weight off my shoulders on packaging and shipping! If I go the crowdfunding route, they can also help with that!
Please let me know if there is interest in supporting a crowdfunding campaign for the book!
With or without the crowdfunding campaign, the online store will be a thing coming in 2023! And it'll be where books and merch relating to Take Off will be sold, including the NSFW zine that was mailed to Pilot Patrons last year!

And that is all for now!! Thank you all for the support you've given this series and I hope I can deliver. Thank you❤️
