Hey everyone! Great news! The FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Comic Book Proofs have arrived and they are spectacular! From the get-go, the comic book pages are crisp, vibrant, and have that "new car smell!" Over the next few days the STUDIO SANDMAN creative team will review these proofs, front to back, and make changes as needed. Once their review is done... the comics will go to PRINT! Which I HOPE will happen by the end of NEXT week! My GOAL is to have everyone's orders shipped BEFORE Thanksgiving... but that timeline might be adjusted somewhat. I'm still waiting on receiving my EXTRA STRETCH GOAL comic book rewards from both @MaCaaaaw / @SayersArt ... to add to everyone's KICKSTARTER package. And I should be getting those books very soon! Once I have those EXTRA books... and the FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Print Run done... everyone's Pre-Order packages will ship ASAP!

Hey everyone, check this out! I finally got around to taking glamour shots of the two NEWLY renovated TV Production Studios here on Asbury Seminary's Wilmore, Kentucky Campus! Within the past year, over $100,000 has been spent refurbishing, remaking, and rejuvenating the video production spaces in the greatest remodel since the late 90s/early 00s.

Both video production spaces have all new 6K and 12K Blackmagic video cameras! Brand NEW audio and video recording equipment, mics, SSD recording decks, wiring and support infrastructure! All new LED lighting panels, neon green Chroma Key Cyc Wall, Podcast set and soundstage buildout! New Steadicam rig, tripods, camera rig stabilizers and much MUCH MORE! It's been such a pleasure working with Admin Staff and fellow Co-Workers on rebuilding these spaces for the seminary. Only a few minor tweaks remain to fully 100% both studios, and hopefully by the end of this year, that milestone can be fully realized for the campus. It's been so fun working with the new gear and running the equipment to produce external marketing, internal communications, professor lectures, special event broadcasts, and podcast episodes for the Seminary! 10 months ago, Asbury Seminary President Dr. David Watson launched a new theological podcast series with co-host Jessica LaGrone called, "It's Elementary". With over 50 episodes shot so far, and tens of thousands of views, it is a highly successful podcast show that I'm glad to be a producer of!

So what happens next? For CURRENT backers... sit tight! KICKSTARTER will take about 2-3 weeks to process pledges and to release the funds for printing. The FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 comic book is 100% completely finished and ready for printing! Once the KICKSTARTER funds release, the comic book files will then be sent to the printer, and within 1-2 weeks the comic will be printed! Once I have the comics in hand, backer surveys will be sent out, and then the comics will be shipped! Orders fulfilled!

To help promote the KICKSTARTER campaign, I recently joined the @DingusDen Podcast to talk comic books and movies! This comic creator interview is PART 1 of 2 EPISODES we shot together and it was really fun to do! I generally don't do a lot of interviews so it's nice to be asked to appear as a guest on his show!

WOW! What a weekend! THANK YOU to everyone who came out to the FALL @lex_con show to chat with me and to buy my artwork! THANK YOU! You all made this weekend an extremely successful endeavor! It was also a lot of fun hanging out with Barry Bostwick (Spin City, Rocky Horror Picture show) at the The Kentucky Theatre to premiere his new movie "Making MEGA FORCE"! That movie was really awesome and the Q&A session afterward was really insightful.

My Four Freedom ISSUE #5 Pre-Order Campaign continues to do very well! We SMASHED through our first $1,000 STRETCH GOAL this weekend and UNLOCKED dozens of reward add-ons for all Issue #5 backers! So for now, even at the LOWEST reward level of $5 (1x copy FOUR FREEDOM ISSUE #5 comic book), backers will receive 10x COMIC BOOKS! That's $.50 per comic book, a price not seen for comics in over 45 years! Since 1981! AMAZING!

And for that support, I am adding an additional FREE reward to ALL FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Pre-Order backers! I am now including (for each reward tier) a FREE copy of Kevin Eastman's DRAWING BLOOD Issue #4! DRAWING BLOOD, is a dark-comic look inside the life of a famous cartoonist on the skids: the story behind the stories - from the co-creator of the TMNT! I was an early backer on both DRAWING BLOOD Volumes 1 (2017) & 2 (2019) KICKSTARTER projects and have several extra copies of the books in my archives! And now, I will be sharing those copies with my fellow FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Pre-Order backers. You might be asking yourself, why is DRAWING BLOOD Issue #4 so special for a FREE backer's reward? The reason being it's the FIRST appearance of FOUR FREEDOM in a comic book outside of my own! FOUR FREEDOM has an easter egg/cameo within the pages of DRAWING BLOOD Issue #4! And that is really awesome! I grew up watching the TMNT cartoons and playing with the toys, so it was an honor to support and appear in Kevin Eastman's KICKSTARTER comic! DRAWING BLOOD was eventually picked up by IMAGE comics! So my FOUR FREEDOM easter egg appears within an actual IMAGE comic book! And so now, dear backers, you will also receive a FREE DRAWING BLOOD Issue #4 comic book within your FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Pre-Order rewards! So that means, even at the lowest reward tier of LEVEL 1 ($5 for a single copy of FF Issue #5), backers will now receive 4 COMIC BOOKS (1x copy of FOUR FREEDOM ISSUE #5, 2x copies of GOD'S STORY, and 1x copy of DRAWING BLOOD Issue #4)! WOW! What an amazing deal!

Got to work with a 3 star Lieutenant General in the studio recently! He was here on campus to help promote military chaplain programs and to encourage the students studying here. When he first came into the studio, I introduced myself as (Kentucky) Colonel Sanders and that I liked Chicken! Haha! We had a good laugh! After the shoot, he gave me a Challenge Coin! And that was really cool! I put it in with all my other trophies and mementos in my office. Hooah!

WOW! GREAT NEWS EVERYONE! We are now over 82% FUNDED on the FOUR FREEDOM Issue #5 Pre-Order Comic Book Campaign! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH kickstarter.com/projects/stu… And on top of that amazing news, I am now announcing NEW FREE REWARDS add-ons for ALL BACKERS AND REWARDS LEVELS! ALL FOUR FREEDOM ISSUE #5 Pre-Order Campaign BACKERS will receive FREE COPIES of the Christian "GOD'S STORY" Comic Book added to their rewards! Earlier this year, @MaCaaaaw and I, finished a new Christian Comic Book together, called "GOD'S STORY". It was made in partnership with Asbury Theological Seminary, here in Wilmore, KY. It was created to help teach younger readers about the OLD and NEW TESTAMENTS. The comic book features individual reading and family group activities to support Christian learning. It was released earlier this year, back in MARCH 2026, and has done amazingly well! It is currently in the process of being translated into Spanish for its SECOND PRINTING, and that version looks to be published in early 2027! And so with that I am proud to announce, for each and every BACKER of my FOUR FREEDOM ISSUE #5 Pre-Order campaign, will receive FREE copies of the "GOD'S STORY" Christian comic book added to their order! THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR AMAZING SUPPORT! More exciting updates will be announced in due time relating to this amazing project! So stay tuned for more info! In the meantime, continue to LIKE, SHARE, BOOKMARK, FAVORITE, and REPOST this project to your friends and family! FREEDOM FOUREVER! ~SANDMAN

Had some free time lately and got done with a lot of needed maintenance on the 76' Cougar! Dropped the transmission pan and drained all the fluids. Replaced the rear differential fluid and changed the engine oil and filter.
