We just got a head's up that Kenny, er Ken "Whit" Whitman has resurfaced on Kickstarter with some wild information, which we had to learn via Facebook. Screenshot courtesy of Chuck Boswell, used WITHOUT permission:
"Hey Everyone,
This morning I recovered the original files for KODT Live Action series. I am copying the files and shipping them to Jolly on Monday.
I have reached out to Jolly and Dave and have asked for permission to remaster the product, however, my contract ran out years ago. If I can get their permission to work on the footage I would love to finish and distribute the project.
I do ask for your forgiveness, and hope I am allowed a way to make amends for my shotty business performance.
I will keep you updated, and hope all of you are still enjoying one of the best damn comics ever made!
-Ken Whitman "
Our ability to post this cuts off there, but when we get a better screenshot we'll post the content for everyone to see.
An informal discussion here at NAD, almost an unnecessary conversation, lead us to believe that this is step 1 in an attempt to begin-again with some sort of crowdfunding effort. If not crowdfunding, them some other scam, er capital fundraising effort.
There is another post about two hours of behind-the-scenes video, but we do not have that yet either.
There was a single post about Spinward Traveller, which we will post about next.
2020.11.08 Edit: We have access to the full post. We've updated the text above and will provide a better screenshot. We did take the liberty of removing some line breaks to make the text read better on this platform, but no other editing was done.
I've sent 2x Screenshots to your blog showing this and his other KODT update in full.
