Hello Schemers!

Apologies for the silence since New Years, our Social Media mod is having a hectic first 2 months… Anyway, here’s an update!

Production is still moving along. Our Graphics Mod is working on the book and our shipping Mod has received most of the merch!

Here’s a look at the double-sided bookmarks, notepad, and tea tins!

Thank you so much for your patience and stay tuned for more updates!

Schemers, we finally have a cover reveal!

Our cover, styled to look like Zexion’s lexicon, features stained glass portraits of both Ienzo and Zexion.

The printed version of Retribution || Another Side will incorporate a unique design element: midway through, the zine flips upside down! Don’t worry, the centerfold piece smoothly transitions between the two halves.

Dear Schemers, here’s an Update!

✨ We were only a small handful of physical orders away from reaching our washi tape goal, so some of the mods grabbed a few bundles… Which means we unlocked the washi tape! All physical orders will come with a roll of this cute tape!

If you were hoping to get the beautiful Ienzo pin as well, there might be some hope just yet! The mods are plotting…

Pre-orders are officially closed! Thank you SO much to everyone who ordered.

✨ Stay turned for more updates in the near future. We’re excited to start production!
