At long last...
Well, thanks for your long-standing patience everyone, and thanks for your support of Full Bleed over these last couple of years. I have some good news, and I have some bad news:
The Good News: At long last, Full Bleed Volume 4 is complete! The files are at the printer as we speak. It's jammed with the great content you've come to expect. If you've ordered it, it will be at your door in early December. Along with anything else you're expecting; the slipcases, and Las Vegas Repo #3 are also ready to go!
The Bad News: Volume 4 will be the last one, at least for the foreseeable future. I want to thank you all for coming on this ride with me. I'm proud of these books, and always will be, and I'll always be thankful for your support. I hope you've enjoyed these books 10% as much as I have enjoyed putting them together. And I can never thank all the tremendous creators that have graced Full Bleed's pages enough for their contributions.
I'm sorry this 4th volume has taken so long to complete, but truly hope you'll find it worth the wait.
Here's the cover below, from the inimitable Tony Millionaire. One last time, for now, Viva Full Bleed! - Dirk

Hi All! It's been a while, and I just wanted to drop a line so you know we haven't forgotten about you -- Full Bleed Vol. 4 has experienced a few delays for reasons I won't bore you with... But it's coming! I'm hopeful you're all using this time to catch up on your reading for Volumes 1-3! We know they're beefy volumes. At any rate, there will be announcements VERY soon on the imminent Volume 4! Have no fear, we plan on doing this for a while, and hope you're having as much fun with these books as we are putting them together.
Meanwhile, a recommendation! Our good friend Shelly Bond has an amazing Kickstarter going right now, particularly for those of you who are aspiring creators. Check it out here:

Thanks everybody, as always, for all of your support! Announcements coming soon, and Viva Full Bleed!

Thanks to your support, we're well on our way to Full Bleed Vol. 3 being a reality...In fact, I'm doing a final copy edit as we speak! This baby will be going to press in just a couple of days.
And with 18 hours left in the campaign, here's one last chance to tell your friends, and help us find every last lover of print books we can. Please spread the word, and here's a way to make it easy, retweet this puppy if you can:

Thanks again for all your support and viva Full Bleed! Once this campaign is over, we'll give your inboxes a break for a little bit, so you can catch up on your reading!

JUST ADDED TO VOL. 3! Eric Powell print, and a "No Book" tier!

As we enter the last 48 hours of the campaign, here's one last surprise! Our good pal and Full Bleed fan Eric Powell has cooked up something special, a limited, autographed print from his Hillbilly series! (See below) This one is a treat - The very first image Eric ever drew of Rondel and Lucille, when he first conceived the series. Fans of Eric's will note that Rondel's look is very different here, as he changed quite a bit in the design process...
Look for the new $50.00 pledge level that includes Eric's print...
AND! BY POPULAR DEMAND - We've added a NO BOOK LEVEL - Already a subscriber, but want the prints and pins from this volume? Check the new $75.00 pledge level, that includes Eric's signed print, Michael Brophy's signed print, and Tony Shasteen's signed rock and roll print, along with Las Vegas Repo #2 and the new enamel pin!

Help us close this baby out with aplomb! Thanks for all your support, and... you know it by heart now: Viva the printed word, and Viva Full Bleed!
