Festive shopping just got easier. https://kugali.com/collections/all-products
Next up, we have an incredibly exciting Kickstarter by one of our best-friend companies, Stranger Comics! You might know them as the team behind the incredible Niobe, She Is Life series, but they've just launched a brand new comic called RUINING CHRISTMAS, which is a hilarious and cheeky comedy caper! This one definitely isn't for kids, but it's a roaring good time nonetheless! It’s an irreverent tale about the spirit of giving taking it in the you-know-what for too dang long! Give the link a click, go check it out, and help them hit hteir goal if you can! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sebastianajones/363951896?ref=4nnre5&token=7d147103
Lastly, one of the Kugali comics is getting a sequel! Our resident Liberian-American hero of MILL CITY'S FINEST is back in WELCOME TO MILL CITY, a continuation of the Kugali story! They're right at the end of their campaign so go and give them a click, support their campaign and enjoy some fresh African-American action! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mcfseries/welcome-to-mill-city/description
Have a wonderful day, and a lovely holiday season,

Hello!
We are officially back from our Wellness Week and we are well-rested and ready to go! We sent out our Backerkit surveys last week too, so if you’ve not submitted a response then make sure you get on that sharpish, or we won’t be able to send you your rewards! We’re currently at an 89% response rate, which means that there are still plenty of people who haven’t submitted – make sure that you aren’t one of them! The deadline for survey responses is the 27th of November, AKA Friday of THIS WEEK! You can also pre-order physical prints of our latest kids’ comic, Mumu Juju, via Backerkit right now!

Next up, some slightly sadder news. Our colourist has had to drop out of the Nani project, so our artist, Jasonas, will be finishing the colouring himself. While this won’t affect the quality of the product at all, it does mean that there will be some delays on the final 60 pages that still need their grades. Our new expected shipping dates are in early March, 2021. Sorry for the bad news, rather out of our control but we’re going to work as hard as we can to make sure that we get them to your doorsteps as soon as possible!
Lastly, because the holidays are just around the corner and we know many people will be buying presents for loved ones, we are going to be releasing DISCOUNT BUNDLES on ALL of Kugali’s physical comics later this week. You’ll be able to get these bundles on our website, with savings of almost 50% off our regular retail price, so if you’re in the market for Kugali presents then that will be the place to get them!
Best regards, and stay safe,
The People of Kugali

over 3 years ago
– Wed, Nov 04, 2020 at 07:04:53 PM
Hello backers!
INTRODUCING a BRAND NEW REWARD!
We've added a special reward to our backerkit add-ons that you might want to take advantage of! At Kugali, we publish a number of comics in addition to Nani - you can get most of our current print titles as add-ons to your pledge, but now you can get our newest print title BEFORE ANYONE ELSE! Introducing Mumu Juju, a fantastical tale of two demigods in debt to an African deity, as they travel the spirit world going on fantastic adventures! Mumu Juju is suitable for all ages, but especially young children - it even introduces Yoruba phrases and bite-size chunks of African history as it tells its tales. If you add it to your pledge as a pre-purchase, you'll get a copy as soon as the comic launches! For anyone looking to complete their Kugali collection, this is a must-have!
Mumu Juju will be available in our pre-order store until launch, so don't worry if you miss out or can't back right now! https://nani.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders We'll be aiming to ship these alongside the Nani 2 release!
Anyway, production on Nani is now beginning to wrap up, and we're still on track to ship in early 2021! Best wishes to you all, stay warm, and ese gan!
