It was announced last month that Mother-mastermind Shigesato Itoi’s company Hobonichi Shinbun will be offering fans something called the Hobonichi Mother Project.

35 artists will be contributing to the comic, which is anticipated to go on sale in Japan on June 11. The lineup of talent includes Undertale creator Toby Fox, as well:

There’s even a special sticker sheet available to those who purchase the book through Hobonichi’s 1101 website (which we’ve linked to, below). No word yet on Pollyanna coming to the west, but once we hear anything official we’ll let everyone know!
