Hope everyone is ready for some HUNKLES! We're planning a TWO YEAR CALENDAR this time, for 2025 and 2026. Not two separate calendars, but two calendars, together! Like twins! 2025's theme will be a Mullet!Stan calendar, with probably some Researcher!Ford thrown in. 2026's theme will be two old men around the house or ship, just doing stuff. Like baking cookies or watching TV. Something more domestic and homey, as opposed to the adventures and monsters of calendars past. More details to come, but for now, it's time to GET HYPED!!!

10 YEARS OF BILL CIPHER ZINE

Ten years ago, Gravity Falls released Dreamscaperers, marking the first ever appearance of our favorite satanic triangle, Bill Cipher! And what a lasting impact he had on Tumblr. From memes to thirst to his status as a Tumblr Sexyman and all the unique humanizations, it’s the 10th anniversary of Bill Cipher being unleashed upon our Earth.

To celebrate, let’s create a fanzine in his honor! Artists, writers and merch creators are invited to celebrate Bill Cipher as a creator! The application will be open for 2 months, meaning it will close on September 12, 2023. Happy creating, and I can’t wait to see your pieces!

Be sure to reblog this post so it can get more views and more applications. The more the merrier.

Feel free to ask questions! My main account is @wolxoltl if you also want to ask me questions there!

Any more Gravity Falls zines incoming? I know it's been 11 years since it ended but I got into the fandom (and also zines!) too late :')

Possibly! I have a couple of ideas brewing, but I'm not 100% sure they'll happen just yet. Any news will get posted here, though!

Made another unboxing video. In this one we check out arguably the most legendary Gravity Falls fanzine IMO; @gfwayfaringstrangerszine

Made in 2017 and sold by The Mystery Shack, this was a collaboration of many fans and artists to make a zine about Stan and Ford's adventures over the years. It's a very awesome book and I'm glad to now own it!

I was helping out TheMysteryofGF at a con this weekend when he told me about this video, and I just logged into this blog to share it, only to see you've tagged the blog in it!

This is totally awesome to see! Thanks so much for posting it! You're far too kind to call it the greatest, TMoGF and I are just two huge nerds that like quality crafted stuff.

It's hard to believe it's been 5 years since that book came out! I know a lot of artists in it have moved on, but I hope some might be interested in traveling back to Gravity Falls some day should I ever decide to launch another one of my harebrained project ideas again.

Hi! Do you think there’s any chance of a rerelease of the zine ever happening? I only got into the fandom in 2021, and I’m afraid I might have completely missed the boat. While I’ve been able to admire some pieces posted by individual creators, I’m sad to think I might never get to see all of this art in the format it was intended for, even as a digital version.

Avatar

There's a good chance the digital version will be on sale again in the future! I haven't quite decided if it's going up for sale in addition to the upcoming calendar, or if it'll be something on sale during 2022 for the 10th anniversary, but rest assured that once I know, I'll be posting about it here!

Hey, everyone!

Hellmandraws                 Theotheraddams

We’re still working out the details, like what charity we’ll be donating to this year, but I just wanted to get the word out and get the excitement started!

Cookbook survey closed!

Thanks for all the survey responses, everyone!

That should conclude my data gathering, unless something else comes up. Time now to crunch some numbers and make some careful considerations. But remember, things are afoot, so be sure to watch this space!

WOOOW!! JUST WOW!  I am totally blown away by our donation amount!!

We donated a whopping $6,724.10 to StandUp for Kids! 

That’s almost seven thousand dollars going to help kids and teens experiencing homelessness in the USA! 

Thank you so, so much to everyone who bought a book or a digital copy and helped spread the word through reblogs, word-of-mouth, or however you lovely folks managed to help make this zine a huge success! 

After TheMysteryofGF sent in our donation, we got an email from one of the folks that works for StandUp for Kids thanking us for the contribution and asking for a little information about the project, since TMoGF dedicated the donation to everyone involved in making the zine. I gave a brief reply, and apologized for the book being entirely composed of spoilers for Gravity Falls. 

If you guys want to know more about StandUp for Kids or get an idea of how donations are used, you can visit their page here!

I just wanted to say thank you one more time to my crew that helped coordinate and organize the zine and to all the wonderful artists who participated! We couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you! <3

And thanks to @hntrgurl13 for whipping up the above image!
