Re-Spun Threads is a paperback comic anthology of fairytales and folklore set in cultures (micro or macro) outside the original or well-known version of classic tales.
Sixteen creators and creative teams came together to craft short comics based on the concept of retelling classic tales with the twist that the characters and/or time and place had to change from the original. The goal was to bring the structure of a fairytale and mold it to convey themes and cultures more relevant to ourselves-- Not to unweave the tapestry of tales that we love, but to rework them into something new.
Death and Decay is a new mini art book featuring illustrations that explore the melancholic beauty of decay and rot... Showcasing work by over 15 artists!

This April 1st, @bobaboard proudly presents our first ever Kickstarter:
✨The Fujoshi Guide to Web Development✨
Join us for a fun and educational adventure sure to hold the interest of even the most "no studying, only studs" fans.
The secret? Hot fictional men, of course!
If you're new to @bobaboard's April 1st traditions, you might wonder: Is this just an elaborate joke?
As long-term fans know, it’s elaborate, it’s a joke, BUT it’s also a 100% real, high-quality product you can buy.
Check out the full pitch and back us at the #FujoGuide Kickstarter page! Keep reading for more!
Since the very beginning, we have championed the weirdness of fans as the best antidote to the blandness of the corporate-driven web. But pointing out this weirdness is not enough: we must nurture and empower it.
But how do we hold fans' attention in a world full of distractions? Well—
But jokes aside, there's no joke: with your help we will make #FujoGuide an amazing teaching tool that will (cough) "fill the gaping holes" in current educational materials for web development.
To fix the web, what we have now is not even close to "good enough." Here's why.
While teaching fannish "baby coders," we noticed existing materials fall into two categories:
jargon-heavy, complex guides designed for professional developers
oversimplified, nostalgia-driven tutorials filled with outdated approaches
…and not ONE hot man in sight!
Instead, #FujoGuide aims to put modern web development techniques into the hands of a fannish public, speaking directly to their needs WITHOUT talking down to them.
We love web development, we love fandom, and we believe that, with the right tools, they'll also love each other.
But words can only do so much. To support #FujoGuide and learn more about Version Control, our first—bold!—choice of topic, head down to Kickstarter and (cue YouTuber voice) smash that "back this project" button!
This whole project was created by a small team of fannish people over the course of just two months (yes, really)! The amazing quality of what you see is testament to their infinite talent, passion, and patience. Applause pls (on the credits doc).
And with this… our 30 days countdown begins! As the month progresses, we'll teach you more and more about our new beloved self-shipped blorbos. We know you'll come to love us as much as we do.
Also if you aren’t already, follow our mothership and main project @bobaboard.

The level up section from my new TTRPG 'Warped'! Since you play as a whole host of different alternate reality versions of your character in 'Warped', levelling up gives you more control over the chaotic energy of the Multiverse, allowing you to change forms more often, open rifts in space and time and summon variants from different dimensions to fight alongside you!
The game has been a joy to develop and the Kickstarter is currently live with only one week to go if you want to back and play your part in bringing this manic multiverse to life!
If you've been following me for a while you'll know I'm soon going to be releasing The Perilous Pear & Plum Pies of Pudwick, a 52 page full-colour, fully illustrated adventure for Melsonia where a group of plucky adventurers will shrink to insectoid size and adventure into the uncanny world that exists inside a sapient pear tree in a system agnostic weird fantasy bugcrawl.
If that interests you, you should absolutely check out Beetle Knight, which I hope to run TPPAPPOP with when I get my grubby palps on it!
Beetle Knight has got a cool contested rolls system, an emblems mechanic reminiscent of the medals in Bug Fables or charms in Hollow Knight, and it comes from a team embedded in the OSR/NSR design trajectory.
I'm not involved with Beetle Knight, but if luck is on our side both projects will release the same day Silksong comes out! If it sounds like your kind of game (and you know it is if you're following me) go check out the kickstarter page!
Want to help fans make their publishing dreams come true?
Want 20 amazing stories and 19 awesome art pieces AND a 12-page comic, all super-duper LGBTQIA+, all made by fan authors and artists, all inspired by The Three Musketeers?
Want an anthology that feels like a fandom zine, except the fanworks are completely legal?
Want to support a queer-owned indie publisher run by fandom's own @unforth?
THEN HAVE WE HERE AT DUCK PRINTS PRESS GOT AN ANTHOLOGY FOR YOU!
The Kickstarter campaign to back Aim For The Heart: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Alexandre Dumas's "The Three Musketeers" ends on Saturday, July 15th, at 10:15 AM Eastern Time - as of the time I'm posting this, there's only 48 hours left to back!
For this collection, we recruited 20 authors and 16 artists who love Athos, Porthos, Aramis, d'Artagnan, Milady, Madame Bonacieux, and the whole gang from Dumas's wonderful historical melodrama. These creators' mission was simple: take this long-adored story and make it queer! The result is an amazing collection of works exploring the nuances of these characters, delving into issues of identity, gender, and sexuality—telling and retelling a story we all know and love.
We've got a great book! We've got gorgeous merch! So come on over and check out our campaign, and get your book on!
If you missed our Kickstarter campaign for Re-Spun Threads, don't worry! The pre-order shop is now open for a limited time, giving you another chance to grab a digital copy of the anthology you've been waiting for.
🌟 Limited-Time Offer: Pre-Order Until December 30th!
The pre-order store is live and accepting orders until December 30th. This is your last chance to secure a copy of the anthology and the many goodies available from the Kickstarter campaign to go with it.
Wastelands 2023 artbook project is a collaborative collection of post-apocalyptic art, showcasing the beauty and resilience of nature and humanity facing the consequences of massive destruction and climatic change. The 16 artists featured in this project have captured the haunting and desolate landscapes of a future world ravaged by death and disaster while celebrating the power to regenerate and thrive of nature itself.
Click here to BACK the project on KICKSTARTER!
Printed and published using sustainable materials, Wastelands 2023 is an ode to humanity’s creative spirit and the enduring power of nature, but also a call to action to protect our planet and preserve its ecosystem for future generations.
I'm throwing in a little incentive for Baldur's Gate 3 Players to promote the kickstarter for our Tiefling centered Zine:
Reblog this post with proof of having backed the Zine and a picture of your BG3 character, and I will draw a headshot of them for you!
- Abyssal Tiefling or Impish Tributes: Clean Sketch
- Infernal Tiefling: Lineart and Flats
- Abyssal Follower or Infernal Worshipper: Lineart, minimal Shading and colored Lineart, as seen below:
You can include additional requests (certain expressions, changes to the design...), and do let me know if you want me to "fix" the hair if your character has horns.
This offer applies to any OC except for dragonborns (sorry).
To keep myself sane in case this blows up, this is limited to the first ten reblogs! I'll try to get the drawing done within a month of your reblog.
If you want to support this Zine without backing the kickstarter, reblogs of this post and my other promo post are greatly appreciated!!
