Unfortunately communication has not been good with the Skunkworks Group community and those who may be in the know regarding sale of the remaining art and collected books.

Jason Canty (who is allegedly arranging sale of JMH's remaining artwork) has not been active on this group in years, so unless someone else sees the sale or is notified by Jason then posts to Skunkworks Group, we aren't likely to find out about it. :-(

I've heard that some people have received them, but never seen anything (pictures, details, or other), so don't really know the true status of this other than Pauline's most recent letter.

If you look at post #28100 By jmhcustomart2004 back on 17/10/2012 you will see the original publication of the notice of the kickstarter, with link to Angry Viking Press, etc. If you search for "kickstarter" in the group messages, you will see all the coming and going.

It was briefly for sale on Angry Viking Press from what I have heard, but the decided not to sell it due to explicit content, etcetera. I have repeatedly suggested Ed Zolna of Second Ed Mail Order books, who was (is) one of the original online seller and distributors of JMH's work (and is still selling the stock of prints).

Good question. I hope they do a bigger run and sell the graphic novels at a small profit so that "the rest of us" can get a copy and also recoup the unexpected extra costs of producing the original "kick starter" set. That would be my recommendation, but obviously needs funds to get it moving initially. Maybe they could pre-sell copies?
Looking back through the messages, found this on the 11th July 2014 from JMH - maybe he knew; he just wasn't telling us directly. :-(
--JMH, still not dead yet, but damn if the ol' Reaper isn't trying his best!
Scrapper, Black Dragon, only hearing what comes via the group.
