Greetings, Followers of the Lamb,
Listen true, fellow congregants: This is a friendly reminder that Backerkit surveys will close on Friday, December 6th at 12 noon Eastern Time (ET)! You only have a few more days to finish filling out your surveys for the CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE, so we can collect your mailing address and shipping information for processing in a timely manner and ensure that your pre-order items ship in December as intended! Be forewarned: Completing your survey after the Friday deadline may lead to a delay in processing your order shipment…so do it now and don’t delay!
As a reminder, you can locate and complete your survey via the following link if you have not done so already:
https://cult-of-the-lamb.backerkit.com/
After surveys are locked, we shall journey onward to our next adventure: fulfilling orders. Once surveys have closed, we expect the first wave of packages to begin leaving our fulfillment hub in Los Angeles, California on Monday, December 9th. Single issue and softcover packages will likely be shipped first, followed shortly thereafter by hardcover, signed hardcover, and limited-edition tier orders. Some specific Add-Ons (like other Oni Press graphic novels unrelated to CULT OF THE LAMB) may ship separately from your other FIRST VERSE rewards, but that will not affect your total shipping cost. Similarly, for the sake of extra security and extra-secure packaging, all original sketches and artwork by artist Troy Little will also be shipped separately at no additional shipping cost.
Once your package has been shipped, you will receive a tracking link via BackerKit where you can follow its progress onward towards its ultimate destination.
(Also, for those of you hoping to have orders in time for Christmas: We believe the vast majority – if not all! – packages will be posted before December 25th, but cannot guarantee delivery before the holiday.)
While you wait, there is more good news to share in exchange for your eternal devotion … As foretold by the Rite of Eight Forbidden Stretch Goals, every backer of a physical reward from this campaign is entitled to receive a gratis, DRM-free PDF copy of the complete CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE graphic novel. As the first taste of the glories yet to come, this reward shall be released to you SOON … so check your inbox for a direct delivery link from BackerKit in the next 72 hours!
And as a final, parting temptation, see what bounties await you with this teasingly candid photographic tease of more Forbidden Stretch Goal items coming soon to every physical backer of this campaign! As written in the stars, you soon shall receive these stunning 8x10” Art Prints by Billy Fowler and Abigail Starling … as well as all eight tarot cards as rendered by artist Brenda Hickey:
There’s more to come soon … For assistance at any point, please reach out to [email protected], and we’ll do our best to address any questions – large or small!
Praise the lamb,
Team Oni

Followers of the Lamb,
Surveys have been deployed and, lo, our fellow cultists have been diligent in their task – roughly 90% of you have already completed the BackerKit surveys that went out last week. Good work! (And thank you, thank you, thank you – this makes our jobs exponentially easier!)
If you’re still unable to locate your survey and have not been in touch with us directly, simply visit this link and use your email address to locate your account:
https://cult-of-the-lamb.backerkit.com/
We’re also happy to report that the vast majority of previously overstated shipping charges have been resolved, and corrected shipping charges should now be available for review in your survey. As we mentioned in our most recent previous update, Oni and our fulfillment partners have done everything possible to keep the shipping costs as close to our original projections as possible – but, alas, they are still just projections and total shipping cost is calculated by the total volumetric weight of your order… Meaning the more items that are included, the heavier your box – or boxes! – will be, and, thus, the more expensive it will be to ship from the continental United States. Please note: This includes Add-Ons, as well, so if you’re purchasing additional items beyond your tier, there will likely be additional shipping due to the extra weight!
If you have questions about your order, you can reach us directly at [email protected].
If you have not done so already, please complete your survey no later than December 6th, at which time we will be locking orders and initiating shipping charges. We need those surveys in order to confirm your mailing address and a few specific questions (eg, t-shirt size for applicable orders), so be advised: Completing your survey after December 6th could result in delayed shipping for your pre-order purchases.
In the meantime: We’ll post another reminder here before surveys are finally closed, and let you know when fulfillment is imminent in December.
And most importantly…
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THIS CAMPAIGN AND MAKING CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE A REALITY!
Praise the Lamb,
Team Oni

Greetings, Followers of the Lamb,
Our journey down the sacred path is almost complete! It is foretold: BackerKit surveys for the CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE will soon be coming to your inbox!
“Well, how soon?”you may ask with a tone of brazen boldness? Well, they’ll be headed to you on Wednesday, November 6th. The Lamb provideth so!
It’s important to complete this step to finalize your shipping address if you pledged for any (ANY!) physical rewards associated with this campaign (beginning with the CULT OF THE LAMB #1 BLOOD RED FOIL EDITION or higher).
If needed, you’ll be able to change your shipping address in the survey as well.
Through the survey, you can select your t-shirt size (if that applies to your pledge level) or browse through additional Add-Ons to your campaign pre-order from Oni Press. If you want to be kept up-to-date on future Oni Press releases, you can subscribe to our newsletter as well, which features a bonafide plethora of forbidden treasures.
Lo, we know it is a busy, busy world, but it will be very important to fill out these surveys as soon as you receive them in order to acquire your items in a timely manner. We are currently on track to fulfill all items in this blessed campaign on time in December as originally intended, but if you fail to complete your survey, so too may your shipment be delayed. Thy hath been warned!
We will post a reminder here once your survey has been sent … and what’s done is done.
SOON IT BEGINS … AND THE FIRST VERSE SHALL BE READ!
Praise the Lamb,
Team Oni
