Pinupocalypse News + More! 💥

Hey everyone!
Big news—Pinupocalypse was published in the U.S. by Massive Publishing, and the first chapter (a 20-page standalone issue) was a massive hit! Over 15,000 copies sold—and that’s just the beginning.
Some of the variant covers are already going for $200+ on the resale market. Totally wild. And honestly? That’s all thanks to you. You were the first to support this weird, sexy dream of mine—and your early belief helped get it picked up by a major publisher. I can’t thank you enough for that. Truly.
If you haven’t grabbed a copy yet, check your local comic shop—there may still be some floating around. And trust me: this first issue will be a rare collectible in the future.
Swinging Island 2 – Pleasure Land 🌴
Meanwhile, over in France, Swinging Island 2 has already been printed and released (in French). The English edition? That one’s on me again. No U.S. publisher wants to touch erotic adventure comics right now, so I’m going DIY on Kickstarter.
The pre-launch page is live, and you can follow it here to snag Early Bird rewards when the campaign launches.
👉 Of course, we’ll only launch this new project after fulfilling all rewards for the Kinky Cards 2.0 campaign. First things first—your trust (and your very adult-themed cards) come before anything else.
I also wrote an update for the Black Books, so if you participated in the campaign, please check your emails for the update.
Get ready to return to the island… where pleasure meets adventure.
In this sizzling sequel, Grant and Betty are invited to a luxurious resort where exploration, indulgence, and connection are the only rules. Surrounded by gorgeous couples and unexpected thrills, they’re about to find out just how wild paradise can get.
I’ll be partnering again with Project Nerd, who’ve been amazing collaborators.
Project Nerd just launched their new comic starring Eriu—a sci-fi heroine who’s equal parts space vixen and cosmic vengeance.
Created by Nathan, Eriu is intelligent, fearless, and dangerously sexy—a little Barbarella, a little Kill Bill’s The Bride. I’ll be contributing special art to the campaign, and if it hits its stretch goals, you might even get an exclusive print from me. 👀
Go check it out and support indie comics at their weirdest and coolest.
Webtoon Time: Extra Virgins Club 🌶️
I’ve also launched a brand-new comic on Webtoon: Extra Virgins Club. It’s part of their annual contest, and with your help—clicks, likes, reads—I might actually get selected as a Webtoon Originals creator.
So if you’re into bizarre, sexy stories with a twist, give it a look. You’ll make me Extra happy, promise.
That’s all for now. So much happening—and more to come. Thanks again for being the best, weirdest, most supportive crew out there.
Let’s make the rest of 2025 even hotter.

Project-Nerd's Esme #1 (With Tarusov Cover)

Hi Backers.
Project-Nerd here, hope you are enjoying your copy of Pinupocalypse!
We're excited to share with you our comic book project. Project-Nerd has brought Esme back to the comic pages with a Kickstarter campaign already fully-funded.
Project-Nerd's Newest Title...
In a disease-ravaged, post-apocalyptic America, wealthy enclaves hire escorts for safe travel through dangerous wastelands. Enter Esme Ford, the best in the business.
The reason I'm providing an update, is we have four awesome covers including one from Andrew Tarusov himself. This is a very limited run for his cover, with only 10 copies remaining.
Final background of Andrew's cover subject to change.
The Escort, the original title of the series, had just 10 first print copies of issue #1 remaining. At this time, 4 still are available. This is the only campaign you can get this collector's edition at this time and it will never be available again.
Esme is already passed its first stretch goal, and has a great chance at more. Every stretch goal has physical perks to add, whether its stickers, added pages, new art, or an entire second issue at no extra cost.
Congratulations Andrew!

Andrew Got Married!
That's right, Andrew Tarusov is now Mr. Andrew Tarusov as he tied the knot on Friday. We're so excited for Andrew and wish him all the best on this big adventure.
Project-Nerd Has a Comic Book
Hey, we launched a comic book right here on Kickstarter and we need your help! Check out The Four, an action-packed comic book with fantastic artwork and a thrilling story. There are plenty of pledge levels at great price points you'll find enjoyable. Plus, if you have backed both Kinky Cards and The Four, we'll throw in an extra Tarusov art print when we ship out your copy of The Four!
Thank you all for supporting independent projects, and send your love and good wishes to Andrew and his beautiful bride.
Thanks for your time and your pledges! The Project-Nerd Team
Kinky Cards - Second Round!
over 1 year ago
– Thu, Aug 01, 2024 at 04:35:24 AM
Hello, my dear friends! I’m excited to announce the 2nd edition of Kinky Cards: the unique Luxury Deck, now with more fun and provocative hand-drawn artwork.
Our first edition was a hit, so we're bringing it back.
“Creating Kinky Cards combined my love for erotic art and vintage fetish drawings. Each suit represents a different fetish: Spades (restraints), Diamonds (latex), Clubs (shibari), and Hearts (tender play). Each card is unique!”
This campaign offers two versions: Normal (black & white) and Luxury (30 new drawings, color, plastic material, new box, better quality). They will sell out fast!
What’s in the new deck?
The images are reworked and colored, making the cards brighter and more modern. Over half of the cards have new fetish designs.
The reissue will be better quality paper, with an improved box, printed by a specialized company. Only NSFW cards will be available.
100% of Swinging Island comic books sent!

Hey everyone! yesterday I went to the post office and sent the remaining comic books! I mean Swinging Island. Each of them is included a bonus postcard with my signature! I hope you like it!
First I wanted to send Ink sketches and Watercolors together with the books for those of you who ordered, but later I realized that I need tubes to send drawings and I can't put the books in the tube. So, I will send it a bit later separately (as I said, during April I'll try to finish all of the custom drawings).
For the "Black PinUp Book" backers: at the post office I realized that it's much cheaper to send every book separately, cause to send one book costs around 8 euros, but to send 2 is around 50-60 (it's weird, but after 2 killos it's a 'heavy package' and not just an ordinary mail), so I'll send all the books separately. So if you ordered Red & Black books, you will get 2 packages separately. I hope it's ok.
Also, if you're in Berlin or not far than 1 hour drive from it, I'd be happy to meet you, give you books by myself, sign it and take a selfie! It'll save me some money and I love to meet new people anyway!
