#Timeline
The final covers for the comics should be finished and revealed during the campaign, so the comics should be ready to go to the printer a month after the campaign is over. Printing and shipping should take another 3 months after that, so delivery of rewards is expected to be done around November or December 2026.
Zoop will always be here to communicate with supporters should any delays occur, if there’s confusion about delivery, or if any other concerns pop up.
