Hola Amigos!
Hope your spring is going well so far. I’m taking over this week’s mail for James, while he works on actually writing all of those books we love so much. Deadlines, like death, wait for no one.

Deluxe Tiny Onion Merch
At C2E2 we’re debuting a selection of our new Deluxe Tiny Onion merch. Designed by the talented Kerin Cunningham, we wanted this line to be an ode to genre lovers of all mediums. Here’s a peek at our Thank You! Tote, and the Layer By Layer unisex t-shirt, available in sizes XS-5X.
Onion Club 2024 is live!
We’ve been hard at work revamping the 2024 edition of the Onion Club, and now it’s live!
Badges ship in June, but if you purchase your membership this week, you’ll get to use your convention benefits at C2E2! Spots are limited, so get it while you can.
Out this week!
Blue Book: 1947 #3, by James Tynion IV, Michael Avon Oeming, and Tom Napolitano is out this Wednesday!
Now a changed man after his bizarre aerial encounter with the mysterious fleet of light in the sky, Kenneth Arnold hunts for evidence of his confrontation to show the world, while at the same time federal agencies begin to get in the way of his quest for truth.
Also including a True Weird backup story by Chris Condon, Jacob Philips, and Aditya Bidikar!
What did I tell you about us being busy? This isn’t even half of it! We’ll be back later in the week with some big news. I wish I could tell you now, but please trust me. I’m doing this for all of you.

Thx for the C2E2 and Onion Club details.
Not sure about what happened with the original tiers. I was Day 1 founder's Onion Club. Is there nothing for the OG's left?
