Welcome to The Few and Cursed online store!
The Few and Cursed is a comic book series set in a world ravaged by the disappearance of nearly 90% of the water on the whole planet. It's been seventy years and mankind has learned to survive - barely.
The problem is their survival sometimes involves curses and deals with the Devil and that's where she comes in. Redhead is a Curse Chaser going from town to town balancing the scales...
Latest Updates from Our Project:

Hey guys, I apologize for the double-update on the same day but it was just brought up to my attention that there wasn't a tier where backers could just get the first four Few and Cursed books plus Chronicles only without any of the higher tier rewards and extras.
I just opened up a new tier ($70) that collects the first four books of the main series in their regular covers plus Chronicles in its regular cover and softcover format and nothing else.
If you'd like to upgrade to this tier just manage your pledge by hitting the "Manage Your Pledge" button in the upper right corner (green button).
Then in the next screen just click the "Change your pledge" blue button on the lower right and finally you'll be able to pick a new tier.
Regular cover by Fabiano Neves on the left, variant cover by Rodrigo Ramos on the right
If you are looking to get Chronicles in hardcover format or with the variant cover art then please manage your pledge accordingly and add it to your package by following the same instructions above but then inputing a new total pledge amount:
- Chronicles Variant cover ------> $35 + S/H ($4 - US or $12 international) - Chronicles Reg Hardcover ----> $35 + S/H ($6 - US or $15 international) - Chronicles Var Hardcover -----> $45 + S/H ($6 - US or $15 international)
Chronicles is a 96-page full color book exploring The Few and Cursed universe in eight different short stories by top creators - two of which are brand new Redhead tales.
And yes, regardless of cover or format preference, every book comes with a dual-sided full gloss dust-jacket. And they will come signed by me, Felipe :)
Again let me apologize for hitting you guys with two e-mails on the same day but as soon as I posted my last update I got a few messages and comments from backers with tons of questions about The Chronicles of The Few and Cursed.
Until the next one, folks!
Best, Felipe

Howdy, everyone!
Quick update with some pretty cool news! I've started organizing the fulfillment of the rewards for the Chronicles of The Few and Cursed campaign this weekend and after doing inventory I found out I have some limited back issues available meaning:
I'VE OPENED UP TWO NEW ULTIMATE REWARDS "THE TREASURE CHEST" WHICH COLLECTS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING EVER RELEASED.
These are pretty exclusive as it contains the last issue #1 variants plus all the other variants for issues 2, 3 and 4 and Chronicles in both their covers and in hardcover format.
Variant covers for issue #1 by Mateus Santolouco and Rod Reis - I only have about six of these left which three have already being pledged for so grab'em while they are still available!
VARIANT AND ASHCAN BACK-ISSUES
I still have variants and ashcan editions for both issues #2 and #3 available as well and you guys are welcome to add them to your pledges as follows:
- Pair of Ashcan editions for issues #2 and #3: $5 - Each individual variant edition: $15
Free shipping!
Also, if you want to get all four variants ($60 retail) please adjust your pledge by $50 to enjoy an awesome discount ;)
Remember, the variants are limited to Kickstarters only and these opportunities are pretty rare!
Some time after the campaign ends, you guys will get your BackerKit surveys where you will be able to use the extra credit pledged towards any add-ons you like from the online store we're setting up.
That way BackerKit handles inventory and makes the process 100% risk-free.
Variant covers for The Few and Cursed #2 by Fabio Valle and Vitor Cafaggi
Variant cover for The Few and Cursed #3 by Felipe Massafera and André Toma & Jok
That's it for now, I wish everyone an awesome weekend and here's hoping we hit that next Stretch Goal soon, it's pretty close, we're only $409 away!! Jai Kamat even started working on his collectible card now:

Have a good one and thanks so much for your overwhelming support! I can't believe we still have about two weeks left and we're already unlocking Stretch Goal #7... maybe I should start thinking about future Stretch Goals?
All the best, Felipe
$23K Stretch Goal unlocked! Every backer now getting double the books \o/
about 6 years ago

Holy smokes, guys!!
We've unlocked yet another Stretch Goal, kudos, well done! I'm speechless as I sincerely thought we'd work around the $20K range and we're working towards unlock every single Stretch Goal planned!!!
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!
Every backer now getting stuff sent in the mail will get both The Few and Cursed #4 in full color and in Black & White for the collectible Ashcan edition!
What's next you all ask? Well, let's take a gander at the Stretch Goals board:
We're currently working towards the second Gold Signature Series collectible card we will be offering in this campaign which is also exclusively to backers getting stuff in the mail.
Add-Ons - how exactly do they work?
I've been getting a lot of questions about add-ons and how exactly I'll know what you guys are adding to your pledges.
I use BackerKit to organize the add-ons so it doesn't really matter what exactly you add-on as long as the math is correct. And even if it's not, you will have a chance to correct it when the BackerKit surveys are sent out.
Basically BackerKit will see you over-pledged your tier by "x" amount and you will have that extra credit to use towards any purchases on BackerKit itself. It's really a smooth and error-free process.
With that said, anybody interested in adding any goodies to their pledges, just follow the instructions in the Add-On section of our Kickstarter page. We've got all the available products and prices listed there.
For instance, the Luke Ross METAL trading card set can be added to ANY pledge tier for $20 only:
WIP - Luis Guerrero is still working on the colors but this should give you all a good idea of the end result.
For those completionists backers out there looking to get the past five Gold Signature Series cards to go along the freebie #6 and #7 cards unlocked on this Kickstarter, just add $13 to your pledge ;)
And last but not least as we move closer to the ultimate $28K and $30K Stretch Goals, backers might either like to consider upping their pledges to get the EXCLUSIVE KICKSTARTER EDITION instead of the Regular cover or just add a second to their pledges for $20 only.
I mean, take a look at this gorgeous cover art by Harvey Tolibao with colors to come by Marvel Comics Juan Fernandez:
Lots of awesome things to be added to your packages for the full Few and Cursed collectible package, folks!
If you still have any questions about add-ons please let me know. As always I'm available for any questions, comments, critiques either by replying this message directly, adding me on Facebook or Instagram or shooting an e-mail to [email protected]
Sara Parks is an 8-time Kickstarter creator with a phenomenal success rate and this latest project is already 100% funded with 15 days still to go. I cannot recommend this enough as it looks absolutely a blast!
From their own page: "Spinnerette, aka Heather Brown, is back and ready to deliver more zany antics in Mayhem in the Midwest! Ohio's Number 3 superhero continues her journey in and out of costume in her sixth graphic novel!"
A Kickstarter "Project We Love" comic, funded in 48 hours and over 300% funded. If these stats are not enough to convince you to at least head over for a sneak peek then perhaps their awesome premise will. I for one love a good anthology and this looks top-notch!
From their own page: "Every one of the 20+ creators who worked on this project is a fan of Edgar Allan Poe and his stories, and we decided that we would re-imagine some of his poems and stories in some new and different ways.
This anthology contains 13 chilling stories by a variety of writers and artists, including Annabel Lee, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Masque of the Red Death, The Oval Portrait, Ligeia, Conversations with a Mummy, Mesmeric Revelation, El Dorado, Dream Within a Dream, The Black Cat, and The Purloned Letter. Plus there are two vastly different interpretations of The Angel of the Odd."
I hope you enjoy these cool tips and let's keep kicking some major butt with The Few and Cursed! We have 15 days to go and 280 backers to bring in to celebrate the super awesome milestone that will add a $20 worth METAL trading card set to every rewards package :D
Until the next one, gang!
Cheers, Felipe

We're now currently going after another one of the GOLD SIGNATURE SERIES COLLECTIBLE CARDS \o/
As some of the "older" backers might know, ever since issue #2 we've been doing these collectible cards featuring exclusively commissioned art for them by top artists.
We've done five cards so far and if and when we reach $20K we will unlock production on Card #6:
*NOT FINAL IMAGE - this was an artwork Genzoman did for one of my previous Kickstarters. Should give you guys a sense of his style and quality of art!
Also, yes, the previous collectible cards from the Gold Signature Series are available as add-ons (although in limited quantity!) so please refer to our Add-On Section from the Kickstarter page to add them to your rewards.
Last but not least, If you are at one of our digital tiers yet you might want to consider upping your pledge and upgrading to a print tier to get all the awesome collectibles we will be giving away to ALL BACKERS getting stuff in the mail:
That's it for today, let's keep kicking some major butt and unlocking Stretch Goals! Please do continue to share the project online, pass the word forward and help us go well above the Bonus 1.000 Backers Stretch Goal ;)
As always I'm available for any questions, comments, critiques either by replying this message directly, adding me on Facebook or Instagram or shooting an e-mail to [email protected]
Actual page from issue #4 which is looking absolutely awesome!
Thanks for your support and until our next update - $20K Stretch Goal!

Project Spotlight
KILLING TIME IN AMERICA - A hardcover ADULT graphic novel
Jimmy Palmiotti needs no introduction. The guy is a comic book legend that has done phenomenal work for both Marvel and DC on top of his creator-owned books. And it's so cool to see such an accomplished creator using Kickstarter to fuel some of his more independent work.
Killing Time in America ends in less than 48hrs and they are well beyond their initial goal so jump on it as soon as you can! From their own page: "This story follows a group of European killers, posing as a vacationing family, coming to the United States to film their killing spree, and the detective that is after them. This story contains graphic violence and sexuality and is for ADULTS ONLY."
Featuring gorgeous art, Angelica Reigns is also entering its final stretch on Kickstarter with less than 60 hours and working towards Stretch Goals. I highly recommend this book if not for the visuals alone!
From their own page: "Angelica struggles to be normal, to be the average twenty something… She does so because frankly, she’s not normal: Angelica Reigns has a destiny and it seems like no matter what she does or how far she runs, it’s impossible to escape who she is."
That's it for todays news and spotlights, my friends, and thanks so much for your continued support of The Few and Cursed. We're doing fantastic and I cannot wait to see if we are able to unlock all our planned Stretch Goals \o/
