I've already backed the original Kickstarter! What is Backerkit?

Backerkit (BK) is a platform used for crowdfunding campaign management. By using BK after the Kickstarter campaign has ended, I can collect all contributors’ information such as mailing address and shirt sizes. If you are an initial backer, no additional funding will be collected from you. Your initial contribution amount will be reflected as credits, which will be used to purchase your preorder items.

When will my items be shipped?

All items will be processed and shipped starting February 5th, 2024. The Episode 2 graphic novel will be sent to the printer in December 2023 (Please note that Episode 2 will be printed overseas with a delivery estimate of 7-13 weeks). Episode 1 and Culturally Insensitive Art Books will be printed domestically in January 2024. Once all shipments are received, all rewards will be packaged and shipped throughout the proceeding weeks. The estimation to process all preorders will be roughly around 3-4 weeks.

I will be moving before packages go out. How can I change my address?

If you have moved or plan to move before packages go out, you will have until January 3rd, 2024, 11:00PM Pacific Time to edit your address via BackerKit. If due to an emergency, you need to change your information after the cutoff date, please email me at: [email protected] with your updated information. Until a confirmation from me has been sent, assume your package will be delivered to your Backerkit registered mailing address.

I'm new to Trill League. Who are you and what is it?

My name is Anthony Piper. I am a writer & illustrator who was worked in the art industry for over 10 years. I started off as a freelance album cover illustrator and graphic designer, who has worked in both the comic and animation industry for companies and brands such as Marvel, Warner Bros, Brisk, Complex, TDE, Fox Animation, and more.

Trill League is independent comic project I created in 2014. It is an infusion of comic book parody, comedy, satire, & black culture. After going viral, I built on the characters and stories presented on the web, which is where the Trill League: Episode 1 Graphic Novel starts at. Fans often cite the IP as “Boondocks meets Justice League”, but it’s definitely it’s own unique flavor from a Chicago-bred artist who grew up on cartoons, video games, and hip-hop. Currently in development at BET+ with Lionsgate and G-Unit TV, this graphic novel story is the foundation for what will be an unparalleled series rooted in hip-hop and superhero pop-culture.

If I'm new to the series, can I start off with the Episode 1 Graphic Novel?

Due to the nature of how I penned the story (which was with the project’s initial supporters in mind), it is best to purchase the Culturally Insensitive Art Book alongside Episode 1 & 2. It contains all of the webcomic drops created from Trill League’s inception, up until my first graphic novel, as well as Issue 0. This will give you the best grasp of what the series entails.

Do you ship outside of the United States?

Most preorder packages can be delivered to some countries outside of the U.S., including Canada, Mexico, Japan, Australia, and most of Europe. Retailer packages can only be shipped domestically. Please note that I am not a commercial business, therefore I do not receive international discount rates. Having shipped to foreign addresses before, the USPS rates are fairly high. S&H fees reflect the the current USPS shipping rate (including packaging).

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
