Our website is up!
So much available!
We just loaded our current inventory onto our website (this took a few days)—something we’ve meant to do for quite some time.
You may notice some more recent titles’ variant covers aren’t available and that is due to our Kickstarter-exclusivity window. We wait 3 months after Kickstarter fulfillment before we will put variants from recent campaigns on the site for sale.
Also, we will not restock any of the variant cover inventory. Our print runs are extremely limited. Once it’s gone, it’s gone for good. You’ll only know if it’s low in stock if there are 2 or fewer copies available, so if you see “Low in stock,” it’s genuinely low in stock.
Digital inventory is not available at this time. We’re working on that.
The site isn’t perfect - we have a LOT we plan on changing and upgrading, but we’re absolutely wanting your feedback - we’re not sensitive people. Help us!
Badbugmedia.com - take a look!
Some other things to look forward to on the horizon:
Patreon - here are some examples of what you can expect.
$5 - free art and wallpapers, a behind-the-scenes look at our productions, and our upcoming exclusive webcomic (new page updated every week).
$25 - a flat black subscription box where you receive 2 random variants from any of our series each month along with an assortment of smaller items like stickers, special edition trading cards, and a lot more are to be announced. 1 in 5 chance of a metal variant being included. Also includes everything in the lower-priced tiers.
$50 - a subscription box with unique artwork that includes an exclusive metal variant cover (meaning the only way to get this metal variant is by being subscribed to this tier), along with everything that’s included in the $25 tier.
$100 - includes everything in the previous tiers, but you’re also invited to a once-a-month video call with Bad Bug creators. We use this call as a Q&A to assist you creatively, talk about your passions, get opinions and feedback on what we’re doing, make fun of my receding hairline…all sorts of things.
Discord
Anyone can be given an invitation to our Discord server. Ask us questions, and the whole Bad Bug team will be there to give you answers. No spoilers though.
We will also give you guys a sneak peek at our inner workings. You can even participate as beta readers for some of our upcoming books!
WhatNot Livestreams
We’ve got some super rare stuff lying around like original hand-drawn artwork, slabbed 9.8 books, and prints that will be up for sale soon.

Fulfillment Updates - as always, please reach out to shaynarose@badbugmedia.com for any issues with packages or orders. We want to get things addressed quickly going forward and this is the best way to do so.
Cereal Killer/Monster World - books have been ordered. Digital rewards were already sent to backers through Kickstarter messages and Dropbox links. We expect to get this inventory next week and start shipping next weekend.
Midnight Highway 4 - same as above.
Discordia 3 - we are going to place a print order on the books soon. The only thing that is delayed is the trade paperback since we’re still completing the art for the backup story in that. Everything, aside from the trade, should be shipping in mid-December.
Bobby Jo 2 - We are 95% complete. I am waiting on a reorder of a couple of prints and Ginger Fury covers from Issue 1.
Death Nell 2 - Fulfillment is complete.
Vanya 6 - The book is being colored as we speak. This will likely ship in January.
Roseblood Manor 4 - We also expect to be shipping this in January. PDF should be ready to deliver by the first week of December.
Just so you know - She Brings A Devil, a title in partnership with Ryan Cummins/Skeletal Press, is not fulfilled by us. This title is owned and operated by Ryan. You’ll need to follow Skeletal Press for more information on that title. Shayna and I will not have any information on that title going forward.
Kickstarter campaigns currently running or launching soon:
AstroWitch 2 - this is in its final days. We have one more trading card to unlock at 25k. Hopefully, we make it.
Sex Spells - it’s a really thoughtful and magical story about sex priestesses learning to heal the world through their sex magic in unique ways.
Monster Girl Beach Party: Winter Special - what’s a better place to have fun in the sun than at a ski resort? Every page is a pinup in this flip-through, almost-magazine comic book. I had a lot of fun reading the first issue and I’m pretty sure anybody with a macabre sense of humor would as well.
No More Gods (Coming Soon) - this is our sword and sorcery book. It focuses on a woman known as The Antigod and her quest to kill every last god…with a massive, badass demon-possessed sword.
AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU ALL!
