I have something amazing for you all to take a look at. My pals at Oneshi Press are running the most ambitious campaigns yet. TarMucks™ Cthulhu Corporate Coffee & Comic is a Lovecraftian satirical “in-world” 16-page comic. This mini-comic features the origins of the Oneshi-verse coffee chain TarMucks™. Learn why drinking a fancy cup of Cthulhu-chino saves the world by keeping the Old Ones at bay. But wait, there’s more!! (Always wanted to say that.) Oneshi Press doesn’t stop there—they partnered with Onetreeplanted.org to plant one tree for every backer. For the caffeinated advocates who stand against the Old Ones who shall not be named, Oneshi Press is offering a BPA-free, biodegradable, dishwasher-safe, reusable TarMucks™ travel mug! (That really is a mouthful.) Right now you can save the world one cup of Java Java Java at a time by clicking this link Kickstarter.oneshipress.com & choosing a tier that fits your budget today. – Joey Galvez-

The Great Old Ones want you asleep. TarMucks™ keeps you awake

Cthulhu & his kin want you asleep. TarMucks keeps you awake. Save the world with comics, coffee, and a tree planted in your honor!

Facing the day without a strong cup of coffee is a terror beyond all description…and so are the unimaginable eldritch horrors that Cthulhu and the Great Old Ones would visit upon this world if they awoke from their aeons-long slumber. Tarmucks™ Coffee is here to ensure that neither of these nightmare hellscapes comes to pass. 

TarMucks™ is the largest purveyor of caffeine on the planet. With a location on nearly every street corner worldwide, most of us have never stopped to wonder how this behemoth got so gosh-darned behemoth-y.

In TarMucks: Origins, readers will finally learn the full story behind this iconic brand…and how its ubiquity isn’t just a corporate victory, but a sacred duty that every one of us must help to uphold.

You see, only TarMucks™…and the Cthulhu-besting caffeine it foists upon the throats of the willing…can keep the Great Old Ones at bay!

In TarMucks: Origins, you’ll learn just how it all got started, where it’s at, and how you can do your part to preserve the sanctity…and sanity…of our fair planet from the ravages of ancient beings who have no care for the fates of humankind.

The coffee itself may be dark brown, but this campaign is green as heck! We take saving the world seriously, whether that means protecting Mother Earth from the ravages of alien beings ancient beyond imagining who have no care for human life…or making our business and products as environmentally friendly as possible!

•  Direct trade coffee beans from farmers who use organic farming methods: “Direct trade coffee is bought directly from the farmer.…The end result of direct trade is that farmers get a better deal, since a larger amount of each transaction goes directly to them. Direct trade coffee is also known as ‘beyond fair trade coffee,’ since it goes beyond the standards established under fair trade. It’s ethically sourced, higher quality and designed to facilitate stronger, better relationships between buyers and farmers.” (thespecialtycoffeecompany.com)
•  Environmentally friendly cups: Our dishwasher-safe hot/cold mugs are reusable, BPA-free, and biodegradable! They’ll keep your beverage piping hot or ice-cold for years, keeping the Old Ones asleep and keeping you awake.
•  Green printing on eco-friendly paper: We use Short Run Printing for all our comics and art prints, utilizing a combination of recycled and sustainably logged and harvested papers, non-toxic inks, and eco-friendly printing technology. For more information on the environmental impact of their printing process, please visit Short Run Printing Environmental Impact page!

• Comics printed in the United States: Short Run Printing is an American company, which means our printed materials aren’t shipped across the ocean. This helps keep our turnaround time short…and keeps our carbon footprint small.
•  Green Web Hosting from DreamHost: Dreamhost is making a conscious effort to reduce its impact on the environment with optimized facilities and policies that put respect for natural resources at the core of what they do. That’s just one of several reasons that Oneshi Press proudly uses DreamHost as our web host provider for all our websites.
•  Oneshi Press HQ Is Green AF: Oneshi Press itself is a green operation—we offset all our carbon emissions, recycle everything we can, buy as much as possible secondhand or in bulk, and live as sustainably as we know how. We’re always looking for ways to make what we do friendlier to our planet.

Here’s some green things we’re doing:

And now, we’re introducing our greenest initiative yet…

As part of our commitment to saving the world, we’ve officially partnered with onetreeplanted.org to have indigenous trees planted were there most needed in reforestation efforts to help combat climate change.

Trees clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, and provide habitat that fuels the world’s biodiversity both and land and at sea. They are an essential tool in the fight against climate change, and a pillar of the world’s many ecosystems. With enough trees planted, we really can save the world!
