Wow, the forum is dead lately.

Mark Bertolini · 12-09-2010, 02:32 PM

Let's do another of these: What are you working on? Got some upcoming stuff to pimp? Ideas you want to throw out there?

I'll get the ball rolling.

My Long Gone series is rolling along, issue 2 will be complete by the end of the month. Markosia has been very patient with us, as it's taking a while to get this done.

Breakneck issue 1 is currently available for digital download at Wowio, and will be featured in January's Previews. I've got the full art back for issues 2 and 3, and I've scripted up to the end of issue 5.

Ghost Lines is all done, and all four issues are available for download at Drive Thru (pm me for links if you want 'em.) Issue 1 will be getting a release through Previews sometime early next year.

I've got two other books on deck for 2011 releases, just need to get a few things finished off on both Antihero and Knowledge.

Also, I've been asked to write a column for a new website launching next year about the trials and tribulations of assembling, and keeping, a team together to produce comics. That's been a blast so far.

2010 was a good year for me. Who's next?

I'm thinking I might actually make some comics in 2011. It could happen!

Do it! I'd love to read something of yours, provided it was action-packed with snark and wit.

SuperMonkey · 12-09-2010, 05:49 PM

I should have my name on some actual comics some time in 2011, as plotter/editor, and hopefully as full-on writer for some web stuff, and maybe even print.

Aaron Walther · 12-09-2010, 10:42 PM

I'm getting things together for the first print volume of my webcomic, Zero's Heroes .

I've also got a 10 page short being finished by the super talented Grant Perkins and Jamie Roberts for Digital Webbing 2.0.

John Lees · 12-12-2010, 06:15 PM

I'm hoping things will start moving for me in 2011. In the early months of next year, I hope to start the marketing for The Standard , my first comic mini-series. The first issue has already been drawn, with some AMAZING art by the great Jonathan Rector, and beautiful lettering provided by DW's own Kel Nuttall. I hope to have the first issue available at some point in the spring of next year, with the other five issues following on a monthly schedule after that. I'm planning to self-publish, selling the comic digitally, through print-on-demand, and perhaps in comic shops locally (by which I mean Glasgow, Scotland). I hope to have more information on the project soon!

It's quiet because Kid Intense started posting in the Golden Goats forum

jedipencil · 12-13-2010, 07:38 AM

Can only people who are writing for comics post here? Or can we blather about anything we're writing?

Jedi, blather away! The more the merrier.

Staplebug · 12-15-2010, 01:34 PM

I was trawling for a writer, hoping to find some one or two page scripts knocking around to read and maybe draw up. But alas, tis, as you say, dead around here.

I'm writing a children's comic at the moment, it's an 'on spec' thing. For an Asterix age readership ( e.g 7-30 ), I hope

It's still a ways away, but those guys are super supportive. I'm sure we'll do something.

Asterix!

Well I got into writing stuff for the Flash Fiction thing, and by golly I quite enjoy it. A bunch of stories are piling up in my Fiction folder, and now I gotta learn how to edit and maybe turn them into something hopefully readable. Absolutely NO idea what to do with them, but I'm having a ball doing it.

Scribbly · 12-16-2010, 08:13 AM

Asterix!

It was my first comics book!
I got it as a present from my uncle on my 6th birthday.
I adored it.
I treasured it by years until it fell apart.

Eugene Selassie · 12-17-2010, 01:27 AM

Hey guys. How's everything going? Hope everything is well with you all.

Working on a few screenplays now.

Actually writing my third comic.

Second one is up in the air. 1st issue was started seven months ago, but only got half of the art. Got burned by yet another artist... lol.

I don't see any of the usual suspects here.
