Pages flowing in

Good morning all.

J.C. Grande has completed issue one of three for the mini-series The Coming of the Occultist. I'm currently lettering the work, and there is a preview of page two up on deviant art here.

A preview book is being put together which will include this first issue, as well as a three page preview of The Theatre of War (art by Dan Smith) and a six page preview of The Menace of the Mannequin (art by Jonathan Rector).

The webcomic will start being posted early next year, starting with the The Coming of the Occultist story line.

There are some more character sketches up in the Characters section.

With Samurai issue one now pretty much being put to bed, I will have more time to focus on this series, and will be filling in the blanks on the website over the next few weeks.

Have a great day!

Going Live!

The site is now out of the testing phase, and pretty much live. There will be some changes here and there as we go, and plenty more being posted as the series comes together.

A meeting yesterday with some of the KnK crowd (krowd?) has had me thinking about formats and arcs. There is the option of jumping straight in to the meat and potatoes of the series, and having two or three mini-series filling in the back story of the series - or that of just going full at it from start to finish.

There is a certain amount of disconnect between the opening two, shorter arcs with the rest of the series, and the very first story line was pretty much planned to be either a one-shot or a mini-series (it simply grew and grew and proved to be too much fun!) so that will go out as such, and I will think about the opening of the main arc of the ongoing series until that is completed.

Work has begun on the first mini-series in the Hero Code universe - a working title of The Coming of the Occultist. I would like to get way ahead in the series before I start to post anything here, and would like to have the first issue completed before the end of the year, but I will try to get some sneak-peeks up on the production pages of the site shortly.

Have a great week, everyone!
