Enjoy new series pages, exclusive mini-comics, and special patron content. Plus interesting links! - Author: Matthew Bogart - Tags: Newsletter, #post-card-pool Hey everybody! This is a quick newsletter update this month because the shipping deadline for getting any cool *Incredible Doom* stuff for your friends or family is just a few days away. Along with prints and floppy disks, we've recently restocked copies of the first two Incredible Doom volumes, each signed with original sketches by yours truly. 0:00 /0:33 1× [CHECK OUT THE SHOP](http://incredibledoom.com/shop?ref=matthewbogart.net) We also have just a handful of the original mini-comic versions of volume one. This special edition has a handcrafted slipcase and unique "Feelies" - special objects from the story's world included in each issue. Jesse and I hand-assembled every part of this set, and it's one of my favorite things we've ever done. For the die-hard Incredible Doom fan, remember, once these are gone, they're gone for good. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/matthew-bogart-incredible-doom-mini-comic-set-MAIN-62abb4121fba3-1110.webp) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.06.29@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.06.18@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.07.00@2x.jpg) [CHECK OUT THE SET](https://buyolympia.com/Item/matthew-bogart-incredible-doom-mini-comic-set?ref=matthewbogart.net) **Holiday Order Deadlines** For December 25th, 2023 Delivery US-bound Orders: Standard Mail: December 11th Priority Mail: December 15th Express Mail: December 19th **International Orders:** ~~Untracked Mail: November 24th~~ ~~Tracked Mail: December 1st~~ ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.11.29@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.08.39@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.12.42@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.09.13@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.09.23@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.09.29@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.08.52@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.09.06@2x.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9c/0c/9c0c3ed1-6073-42fe-82e4-7701884d4597/content/images/2023/12/CleanShot-2023-12-07-at-14.11.49@2x.jpg) A selection of stuff from [the shop](http://incredibledoom.com/shop?ref=matthewbogart.net). ### 💬 New Comics I'm having a blast with this new Incredible Doom series!

So I was primed to love this dive into the profound themes of hope in Middle-earth. It's the kind of video that reminds one to push on, which I sometimes very much need.

The Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee episode with Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner, the HBO Max doc about Rob Reiner and Albert Brooks, and this video. of Bob Newhart and Don Rickles in this short documentary by Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio. It captures the joy of lifelong friendship and a profound sadness now that Rickles is gone. [Thoughts on “Now and Then” | Andrew HickeyPatreon is empowering a new generation of creators.

So when the surviving Beatles did this (the third time) this year, I was intrigued. This post by music writer and podcast Andrew Hickey not only dives into the song itself, but a very personal and touching theory about, even if it's not for you, why it probably **should* exist.
