I will probably put copies back up for sale off my site in mid to late November.
I must also request the PATIENCE of all who have placed orders (minus the people who have already miraculously recieved their copies)-- In case you didn't know, these are the most busy days of my LIFFEEEE lately. You are, of course, a high priority for me-- but these books that you'll be recieving will be worth a lot more if I actually manage to meet my deadlines, first :]
Lotsa stuff coming up. Preview of the 2nd Rival Schools backup, a Sequential Tart interview... uhhh lots of stuff. So much stuff that I can't possibly remember it all. I seriously need an assistant. Sunday, October 16, 2005 New event information to the right and bottom of this news space. I have my own signing in California next month! If you are in the area, or have friends in the area, or both, you should DEFINITELY COME!!!
Also, my god, I have lots and lots of orders for PENG and Sharknife. Thank you all for making this boy so happy and un-broke. BUT! I must warn all of you that this IS basically a 1-man operation (well, I'm training an "intern" I guess you could say) but you should know, that if you ordered the $20 PENG deal, yours will take the longest to be sent. As yours comes with 2 drawings, essentially. $15 orders won't take as long, and a batch of the $10 orders have already been sent out.
This, along with demanding Rival Schools deadlines and dedication, also means Shorty Portrait reservees will have to wait a little longer.
So much excitement!!! Big plans, grand dreams!!!
Oh yeah, be sure to check out my updated MySpace page and add me if you haven't already!! Friday, October 07, 2005 Yeah, the gallery problem I mentioned last post is not happening as often now. So don't worry about it. Safari users will just have to refresh if anything looks wonky here. All other users simply live in an ultimate wonderland where absolutely nothing is wrong with this site, hooray!!!
Anyway, I may use this space as a Blogger-ish kinda thing now. So expect more posts or whatever I guess.
People have been briskly ordering copies of PENG and Sharknife from me. Thank you for the support, everybody!!! I will start mailing these out very soon. I bought little "Sales Order" sheets, so I am all organized right now. Also on my list of things to do, of course, are the Shorty Portraits that people ordered a couple months ago. I will get started on those soon, promise!!
Also, and this is kind of emberassing, but if anyone has not yet recieved a SASS-PACK they ordered, please indeed email me. I've sent them all out, but at least 1 of them was sent to a wrong address... so yeah. Please bitch at me if you have any problems.
RIVAL SCHOOLS?????? It's going great. I have a lot of inspiration to make sure the comic rocks, thanks to the Shoryuken.com and SNK-Capcom.com messageboards :] Thursday, October 06, 2005 I totally redesigned the site as you'll notice. The coolest new feature about this new site would be the fact that it is now very easy for you to buy my comics if you would like. The shittiest feature about this site is the same thing that plagued my last design; Safari users will notice that the "gallery" section gets effing effed up whenever it effing wants at effing random!!!! Yeah, it totally sucks!!! I don't even know why or how it happens. It just does. What I do is refresh the stupid page a thousand times until it looks right. Basically, the problem is, like 15 or so of the thumbnails will load, then the remainder of them will stack on top of eachother for an unknown reason. If anyone has a suggestion to un-fuck this occurance, that would be killer! Wednesday, September 21, 2005 I am flying to the Small Press Expo in Baltimore tonight!!!!! I know I haven't updated in a little while, and people may not know that I am going, but I am so going. And PENG will be there!!! I also have little portraits that will be fore sale. So, if you are going to this event, be sure to seek me out, as there is going to be some very exciting things to see from MEEEEE!!! (If you play your cards right, I'll give you a sneak peek at my 2 new projects!!! :D)
Oh yeah, and in case you haven't heard yet... This is really funny coz I wanted to make a big deal out of this, but I have barely any internet access... BUT ANYWAY.... My next project is a Capcom licensed property known as RIVAL SCHOOLS!!!!!!! Even awesomer, I'm not just drawing it, but also writing it!!!! Anyone familiar with this game will know how suitable a fit I am for the project, and how hard it is going to rock!!!! Expect some serious schoolyard fighting special burning vigor mayhem in '06!!!!! There is a Gingerbox thread with some Rival Schools artwork in it right here!
And here's a little peek at a Rival Schools illo I did for the cover of LO-FI magazine!!!
So, PENG is coming out within the week, Rival Schools is next, and I am also writing and illustrating TWO new indy projects!!! It's all going buck nuts in 2006. I hope you all will be there holding the rope with me on this giant tug-of-war that is COMICS JUSTICE.
Ok, I'm off to Maryland. Hope to see some of you thereeee!!
