Hi,
I hope you’re well.
Okay, ripping the band-aid off time, I’m not physically going to be at San Diego, but yesterday I put together a video for Matt Hawkins of Top Cow, talking about my upcoming comic, and showing lots of art from it! I believe the plan is to show it at some point in SDCC - though I don’t know when or where!
Also, I can’t show you anything yet, but hopefully the time is coming where more can be spoken about it! I love Willi’s art for the book, and Lyndon’s lettering is top-notch as always!
Powers Fearful & Divine 1 & 2
We launched our latest Kickstarter on Tuesday for Powers Fearful & Divine 1 & 2, and we funded in under three hours!
Houdini, Lovecraft and Conan Doyle battle for control of the 20th century, embodied by a twisted, half-mechanical Victor Frankenstein.
As always, we have early-bird rewards that finish today so head on over there now and grab one whilst they’re available!
Writing, At Last
I managed to fit some writing time in yesterday, which was great, and I picked up on a comic I started writing a few years back. Having these ideas half done is always beneficial when I come back to them, as it feels like I don’t have to do as much work as if I was starting from scratch. It’s not finished yet, but the pages are flowing nicely, and I have no doubt it’ll be finished. It’ll be part of the Hexes Volume 3 book.
Seventh Sister
I received more pages from Majory Yokomizo for Seventh Sister, and they’re looking great. Here’s one below.
It’s a pretty wild ride!
Clodagh 3
Talking of wild rides, I had the lettered pages from Rob Jones yesterday, and I’m really pleased with how it’s shaping up. I wouldn’t say my books are full of action, but issue 3 has a couple of fight scenes which are amazing!
This is all but complete, so expect to see it crowdfunding soon!
Sinners 5
It’s been in the works for a while, but after The Shadow Over Innsmouth is complete, RHStewart has been able to incorporate some changes into the art, and hopefully issue 5 will be ready soon!
He’s also provided a variant cover based on a famous comic cover, see below:
It all looks very cool!
