Hey everyone,
Sorry we have been so quiet over the last month or so. We have been extremely busy over at Untold HQ getting the book ready!
Unfortunately we're running a little behind due to some unforeseen family issues. But we're hopefully going to be back on track within the next couple of days.
Here a sneak peak of one of the intro pages, to wet your appetite. With the finished book soon to follow.
Thanks
Dan
The 4th Monkey...

Hey everyone,
I wanted to invite you all to a very interesting project that myself and James E Roche, creator of the Wretches series, have recently launched on KickStarter.
The title "The 4th Monkey" is a play in the ancient Chinese proverb "Three wise monkeys"; see no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil. In our case the 4th Monkey is the outspoken one. He is the monkey that has his eyes wide open to the world and is willing to help.
The anthology itself is gear toward raising awareness around social and environmental issues. We have 8 stories that have been put together by over 20 creators. The stories include:
- Poaching
- Suicide
- Water Pollution
- Internet Trolls
- Political Polarization
- Mental Health
- Alcoholism
- Pesticides
If any of these issues are close to your heart, or if you simple feel they need more awareness, please head on over to www.the4thmonkeycomic.com and check out the campaign.
Any support you can offer will go along way to being able to make this book, and hopefully help get the comic community discussing some sensitive issues, that may usually go under the radar.
Thanks for your time.

P.s we're also giving away this stunning "4th Jedi" print by Francesco Tomaselli to anybody who backs us on a physical level within the first 48 hours!

Hey there,
I've just taken a few days away from social media and KickStarter, after what felt like a LONG campaign!
I really wanted to say a huge thank you to everybody that has backed and supported the book. I know we say it repeatedly throughout the campaign, but without you guys being willing to give us your hard earned money we wouldn't be able to make the book. So thank you, it really is appreciated.
I have been speaking to Criss Madd today and he wasn't happy that we didn't make the final stretch goal. He really wanted us to get some colour on those first 3 pages (I think it's, mainly, because the style we were going for was his idea!!). He was SO unhappy that he has kindly offered to have his colourist take care of them, at no extra expense, as an extra thank you to you guys for being so awesome!!
The script has been handed over to Criss and the rest of the artwork is underway!! We will keep you updated with progress pictures as and when they crop up!!
Thanks once more
Dan

Thank you for your support throughout the campaign. See y'all on the other side!!

STRETCH GOAL #3 ANNOUNCED!!
almost 9 years ago

Hey,
I am extremely happy to say that we smashed through the second stretch goal yesterday!! It means that I can now include a 3 page introduction in Untold #2 that will explore Daisy's story further.
I can also announce the third stretch goal, which is for £3,500. If we reach the goal, we would like to add some colour to the new 3 page intro. It wouldn't be FULL colour, but a really unique style that would merge into the Black and White with colour splashes that we use a the moment. I don't want to give too much away, as I'd really like it to be a nice surprise for you guys as backers.
Thanks for your support and hopefully we can get to that next goal!!
Dan
