🚨 IMPORTANT UPDATE: LAST CALL for the Survey + Amazing Updates / New Pages Preview!
🔥 Hello, Warriors! 🔥
It’s time for a new Seventh Universe update... and this one is important.
First of all, a quick production update: work on the main graphic novel is moving forward at full speed! We would have loved to publish many more updates over the past weeks, but we got completely absorbed by an incredible amount of drawing, coloring, page work, corrections, and production.
The good news? There is a lot to show you today.
The main comic is now halfway through production, and I have also just drawn the characters inspired by the backers who selected the “Your Face in the Comic” reward. Seeing real supporters become part of the Seventh Universe story has been truly exciting.
So please keep reading, because below you’ll find some brand-new previews from the main book and from the spin-offs!
🚨 LAST CALL for the BackerKit Survey 🚨
Very soon, we will lock orders on BackerKit. This means that if you still haven’t completed your survey, now is the time to do it.
Completing the survey is extremely important because it allows us to:
Collect your final reward information
Confirm your shipping address
Calculate shipping costs correctly
Prepare fulfillment in the most accurate way possible
Let you upgrade your edition or add extra items before orders are locked
If you haven’t completed your survey yet, please do it as soon as possible.
Enter the same email address you used for Kickstarter, and you’ll be able to retrieve your survey.
⬆️ LAST CHANCE to upgrade your edition ⬆️
This is also your last chance to upgrade your reward or add something special to your order.
And yes, this includes the Seventh Universe spin-offs.
If you missed them during the campaign, or if you selected only one or two and want to complete the collection, this is the final opportunity to grab them through BackerKit before we lock everything.
So… let’s take a look at them.
In 3… 2… 1…
🌍 PLANET KILLER — New Preview!
The first spin-off is Planet Killer! Enjoy this hyper detailed double splash-page!
In this story, we witness a planet being consumed by a terrifying bio-mechanical infection. The situation is catastrophic, the scale is massive, and the danger is growing beyond control.
In the preview, Ekam saves his sister, Adia, at the very last moment.
But don’t worry.
Adia is not just “the princess to be saved.”
Once she recovers, she will give you one of the most unforgettable and spectacular moments in the entire Seventh Universe saga, as a true “strong female protagonist”…
Or maybe it would be more accurate to say:
super-powered.
🪽 GLITCH — Upgraded Beyond the Stretch Goals!
The second spin-off is Glitch, and we are very proud to say that it has received a fantastic upgrade, not tied to any stretch goal. We simply wanted to give our readers the best possible version of this story, because the Seventh Universe deserves it, and so do you.
The cover has been improved, the visual mood has been pushed further, and the atmosphere is now much stronger and more cinematic.
In this new page, the Elokahs are preparing to reach a planet where something sinister is happening.
Portals are opening.
Wings are spreading.
And the next mission is about to begin.
🌑 LIGHTLESS — New Unreleased Page!
The third spin-off is Lightless.
In this new preview, Ekam finds himself facing an enemy who feels strangely familiar.
What is really happening here?
Will he strike?
Will he hold back?
This is one of those moments where the answer is hidden inside the story itself, so if you want to discover what’s really going on, Lightless is the spin-off you don’t want to miss.
Oh, and the big news is: Lightless is 90% finished already!
Let's go!!
⚔️ Main Comic Preview — New Material!
And now, a little taste of the main graphic novel.
As mentioned above, the main Seventh Universe comic is moving forward at full speed, and we’re incredibly excited by how the pages are coming together.
The book is becoming bigger, more cinematic, and more intense with every new scene.
We can’t wait to show you more.
Stay tuned — more previews are coming soon.

⬆️ Last chance to UPGRADE your pledge ⬆️
Inside the survey, you’ll have your last chance to upgrade your pledge and grab exclusive add-ons and special items.

Can I change my shipping address later? Yes. You can update it before we close the surveys.
I have more questions. Who can help me? Send us a private message or email us at [email protected].
🔴 One more thing, Warriors... 👀
Very soon, another project set in the same narrative universe will go live from a different branch of ArtCon, with a different team and a completely different format.

[IMPORTANT UPDATE] BIG NEWS: Comic Progress, MOVIE Reveal & BackerKit Survey Next Week ⚔️🚀
3 months ago
– Wed, Mar 18, 2026 at 08:30:18 AM
⚔️ WARRIORS, HERE WE ARE: A BIG UPDATE ON SEVENTH UNIVERSE
Hello, Warriors!
First of all, we want to sincerely apologize for the long silence since our last update. 🙏
The reason is simple: work has been moving forward incredibly well, and we’ve been fully focused on building something we truly can’t wait to share with you. We’ve held back a little because we don’t want to spoil too much too early... but today we can finally give you some great news. 🔥
✨ VERY ENCOURAGING NEWS
The biggest update is that the main comic has now been completely written, and all storyboards are finished.
That means that even though many pages are still in sketch or draft form, the full comic can already be read from beginning to end (124 pages!). This allowed us to collect the first feedback on the story, and we’re very happy to say that it has been extremely positive. 🚀
That gives us even more confidence, because it makes us hope that the story we’re building will be able to truly captivate you, our Warriors, too.
Lots of pages!
At the same time, the spin-off comics are moving forward with some absolutely amazing artwork already taking shape. 🎨 From time to time, we’ll be sharing some of these visuals inside the Seventh Universe Facebook VIP group, so stay tuned if you want little glimpses of what’s coming.
Oh, and the second volume is already in development!
Vol 2 Cover preview
And there’s more: we’ve also officially started the serial production of the statues. 🗿 This is a huge milestone for us, and we’re incredibly excited to see ALL these pieces finally becoming reality.
🎬 BREAKING NEWS: A PARALLEL FILM CAMPAIGN?
Now for something unexpected...
We’re currently testing the waters for a parallel campaign connected to a film project. 👀
And yes... our protagonist ADIA will appear in it in an important role. ⚡
We’re not ready to reveal too much just yet, but this is something we’re very excited about, and we think many of you will be too.
So stay tuned on Facebook, because soon we’ll be sharing a concept trailer. 🎥
Live action Adia???
ArtCon Universe is already EXPANDING!
🚀 WHAT’S NEXT: SURVEYS & PLEDGE UPGRADES
Starting next week, we’ll enter the next phase of the campaign: BackerKit surveys.
Here’s what you’ll be able to do in the survey:
Confirm or update your shipping information
Review and complete your shipping payment
Increase or upgrade your pledge
Grab any add-ons you didn’t select during the campaign
This is an important step if you want to make the most of your Seventh Universe pledge.
👉 Please note: once the Late Pledge / BackerKit survey window closes, most add-ons and campaign pricing will no longer be available.
NO cards will be charged before mid-2026, so you’ll still have time to adjust your selection with no rush.
⏳ LAST CALL
Before the BackerKit survey period closes, this is the perfect time to take one more look at your options.
As mentioned above, once the Late Pledge / survey window ends, most add-ons and campaign prices will no longer be available. That’s why we strongly encourage all Warriors to check out the bundles as well, you may find something you missed during the campaign, or discover a better way to expand your Seventh Universe collection. 🔥
And much more!
🤝 HELP A FRIEND DISCOVER SEVENTH UNIVERSE
There’s one more big way you can support the project:
help another Warrior discover our universe. ⚔️
Late Pledges are still open, which means this is the perfect moment to invite friends, comic readers, collectors, and sci-fi lovers to join our growing cause and become part of the Seventh Universe journey.
Every new Warrior makes this universe stronger. 💫

Hey Warriors! While work on the comic is moving full speed ahead, I have a big update for anyone who wants even more lore. But first things first:
📌 Production update
Meanwhile, behind the scenes a lot of cool stuff is happening:

finished pages
roughs
storyboard
In short, the Seventh Universe production site is alive, productive, and things are going smoothly and strongly.
