Emotional Support Monsters – Exclusively at Jetpack Comics

I want to talk about Jetpack Comics for a moment, and fill you in on why you should absolutely buy your comics from them.

First off, this photo is of their Jeremy Robinson section. That’s right, a whole section!! >>>

Jetpack has been a part of my family’s lives for the past 15-ish years. Not only are they my comic shop of choice, but my son played Pokemon there for years, and my wife would provide transport for a whole collection of “Pokeboys”, many of whom went on to play in actual tournaments, including my son. My fam was Pokemon royalty, and were befriended by just about everyone in the shop.

Three years ago, when I decided I wanted to finally try my hand at comic books, I spoke to Kyle Litchfield at Jetpack about it. Turns out Kyle knows everything about comics, from the business, to publishers, to artists. He’s a treasure trove of information. And I’ve picked his brain every weekend for the past three years. Kyle’s advice has led to many of our successes, including deciding that Vault Comics was the right fit. (Turns out they were!)

And when NECTAR came out last spring, Jetpack was kind and wise enough to have the only variant cover made for it. When the book sold out two weeks before release, stores who’d missed their chance got variant covers made for the second printing…over 60 different covers!

And I can honestly say I would likely not be here, talking about successful comic books, without Jetpack’s support, and Kyle’s advice. Thank you, Kyle!

As you can see, Jetpack is a fantastic store with fantastic staff…and is the only place where you can order signed (and remarqued) novels and comics online.

It’s time to SETTLE DOWN!

Rather than kick things off with a personal anecdote about the book I’m going to start with…DISCLAIMERS (read that in a dramatic, deep, announcer voice).

Disclaimer 1: Some have noticed that the book is dedicated to Christopher Columbus, which immediately gets people riled up. BUT, don’t jump to conclusions. Did his life inspire this book? Sure did. Was his life inspirational? If you’re a fan of genocide, approve of torture, support slavery,  endorse extreme violence, and human mutilation, sure. If you oppose those things, not so much.

RobinsonFest 2026 – Join us in ST. AUGUSTINE!

REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP NOW

Wait, what is RobinsonFest?

Robinsonfest started in 2015. A group of very determined readers pressured Jeremy—a near hermit-like introvert—into holding a weekend-long gathering. We were just thirteen people back then, and the first ’Fest was held in Portsmouth, NH. The weekend was full of great food, good fun, and a lot of laughter. We decided to make it an annual thing, and it grew each year. (Until 2020, when we sadly put the event on pause for the pandemic.) We resumed in 2023 in St. Augustine, Florida, returned again in 2024, and then last year we went International with a trip across the border, to Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. A good time was had by all, and now we return to St. Augustine once more!

Robinsonfest isn’t like a standard author signing or event. The ’Fest will still be a relaxed affair. (Jeremy will probably be in shorts and T-shirt the whole time.) We’ll get together for the weekend. Go see and do some cool things around town, and we’ll have a big signing/Q&A session on Saturday, where you can buy books and get them signed. You’ll have plenty of time with the authors: Jeremy Robinson, Kane Gilmour, Kent Holloway, J.M. LeDuc, and Xander Weaver are confirmed so far, along with audio narrator Dan Delgado, but we might have even more. You’ll have ample opportunities to ask them all your burning questions.

Excommunicated #1 is Haunting Comic Shops NOW!!

ORDER FROM JETPACK HERE

As the release date for Nectar #1 closed in, Vault Comics wanted to temper my expectations. I was informed (accurately) that an indie horror title had a sales ceiling. Reaching that peak number was something of a holy grail. Nigh impossible to reach, especially for a first timer like me. Reserved for the biggest indie hits by people in the business for years.

It’s been two months and my first three issues (Nectar #1 and #2, and Excommunicated #1) have ALL crushed that number. Like, decimated it. And now, Excommunicated #1 is ready for you to read and weigh in. Does it live up to the hype? Does it deserve all the attention and sales? I’m eager to hear what you all think, and very excited to get all four issues into your hands so you can enjoy Sister Josephine and Edimmu as much as I do. Let’s dig in!

EXCOMMUNICATED #1

RELEASE DATE: TODAY (sort of). Here’s the deal. All of the variant covers for Excommunicated were shipped on time and will be available at shops today. BUT, there was a SNAFU with the printing/shipping of the primary cover, which has been delayed until NEXT Wednesday.
