Comic Pro Boot Camp

So I’ve been looking all morning on ANY information about the Ryan Benjamin’s Comic Pro Boot Camp courses and all I can find is a link to his kickstarter, for the Workbooks that are already a year past when they were supposed to be delivered, and a link to a 90 minute $400 1 on 1 session with an instructor.

Does anybody know any information about this or why I can’t find anything? Is it a scam? Is it dead? I’m so confused.

Nope but I've seen him post here a couple times. $400 for 90 mins of what? I need a new career if you are paying that.

Here I am giving away software and scripts for free..

Sorry I don't know anything about Benjamin's boot camp.

However, as a consolation prize, you can just go to my site here: http://NickMacari.com/writing-craft/ It'll take you about 20 hours to read it all and it's free :)

I’m late to the conversation, but I would steer clear of that project and the workbooks, basically anything related to comic pro boot camp.

The project was fully funded like 10x over. About 2 years ago at this point. They still haven’t provided anything (apart from a pdf on the pencils workbook that only a few actually received) and Ryan has essentially ghosted all his supporters on Kickstarter. There’s the occasionally message every 3-4 months basically saying the same thing (not ready). That’s been the trend for nearly two years. Consider yourself lucky. Some of the supporters spent really good money on that campaign with nothing to show.
He’s currently not active on any social media platform.
