No. I hear Seven Seas loves Amerimanga, maybe Myoopi should submit her portfolio.

$25 for the physical book? I'm in, cheapest Kickstarter for me to date.

I'm a bad man though, up until a few weeks ago, when Nina ended, I thought Robin was Justin's wife...

Consider my pledge to be be my penance.

....Mine as well. Fully funded in 8 hours though congrads on the accomplishment.

that's really cool. I wonder if there's a market for my comic on kickstarter...

No surprise the goal was met. Aside from Calvin and Hobbes, I don't think I've seen a more fevered group of fans.

This is a good way to finalize a "thank you" to Robin and all her work these years making us smile.

Backed this, as I always looked forward to Wednesdays. Congrats Robin on making the goal so early, and hopefully we can reach the stretch for a hardcover!

That's exactly why I backed it. I didn't even ask for anything in return, because IMO she's already given us a lot to begin with.

Congrats on making your goal, Robin, and good luck with your surgery today.

Just made the pledge to put it over $10k. There will be hardcovers. Thanks, Robin.

Anime News Nina was a comic I kept coming back to ANN even when I stop watching anime for a while. I pledged the most I could afford because I really want too see this a reality.

Backed it even though I just recently had a discouraging experience with Kickstarter (it will be more than "discouraging" if The Kansai Club doesn't publish and send us backers Osamu Tezuka's "The Crater"!)

Anyway, I've enjoyed Anime News Nina over the years, and the comic will sure look fancy in a hardcover book!
Congrats, Robin, and get well soon! Smile

I'm in! I took a Super Fan Pack - I was too late for The Ultimate Face-Splosion Immortal Nina Fan Lord Pack and the Mega Fan Pack. I've been hoping to see a book for a long time, and it's now going to happen. That is so cool!

Thank you Robin!

Years ago when the comic was ongoing I'd always tell myself that eventually I'd read every strip. Alas, that never came to be but at one point I thought to myself, "self, how nice would it be if the comic could be in one easily accessible chunk that doesn't require being tied to a computer."

Definitely had to back this project.

Well, they passed their stretch goal buy over two grand, so I guess we'll be getting that hard cover and dust jacket.

I wonder what kind of additional goals Robin is gonna think up next.
