Quick Update

I've decided to hold off on posting more preview art, until it becomes clear what you (our dear readers) really want to see more of. There's a poll at the top of the page that will give you a chance to have your say.

Until then, another quick update...

For the Preview:

- All 10 pages are now pencilled and inked

- At least the first draft of the letters for all 10 pages are done

- One page is fully colored, and a couple more are started

- Two separate covers are lined-up, and on schedule

Overall:

- Line art is almost 90% complete for Issues 0 and 1

- Color art just started recently, but is making good progress

- As writer, my focus is on writing Issue 2, finalizing dialogue and lettering in 0/1, coordinating the artwork, and preparing pitches for publishers

All in all, I'm just damned impressed. I first started writing this (as a graphic novel) only 84 days ago, and the artists have been working for only 60 days. (Less, in some cases.) That's a lot for them to accomplish working part time, alongside other work they actually get paid up front for.

As it stands, I think we are on track to start releasing the official digital Preview (Issue 0, plus 5 pages of Issue 1) by Halloween, as I hoped-- and to send that issue to the printers in November.

If you read this blog, you're already among the first to get a taste of the preview. Be sure to vote in the poll, about what you'd like to see next!
