Ahoy! Wise man once said "I'm a little bit like herpes, I keep coming back!"
Last year was a real learning curve. Time to learn more by doing. I don't know what I am talking about, so I will nao direct you to the blog where my web comic updates shall reside for the foreseeable. Please stop by and come back here and tell me what you think. I have tough skin like Thing...well not that tough. Thx for your time ^_^
Figured I'd dust my old thread off for a little progress report: I've been working on my Team Mummy saga since around last summer. Now I've been able to get two and a half chapters done and up online for you to check out at your leisure ^_^ They are in the sidebar here at my blog. I think read one by one they may actually make a hint of sense ^_^
Chapter 3 - "NINJARELLA" is getting closer to being finished. And then I suppose I will prepare the POD volume to sell online.
Here is Ninjarella's "origin" sequence to maybe probably hopefully peak your curiosity. Feedback is encouraged, please tear me an eighth one. I want my work to be less crappy in teh future!
5 more Ninjarella pages to finish. 60 comics pages total. then i want to add 10-20 more supplemental/bonus pages to tie it all together. hopefully a "dress like Ninjarella" page ^_^ and bonus art
back: whoops, don't think i answered well enough. About chapters: As many as it takes til the story reaches the point of no return and almost everyone dies. but I'm trying to keep in mind the number of pages in case i want to prepare a vol. 2 or what have you ^_^
Captain's Log: It is 2:30 in the a.m. and I do not give a darn. I got tired of procrastinating and have decided to jump head first into my next chapter of comics pages. I have not even decided on the title yet. Chapters I-III were loosely structured, so it's safe to say I'm re-experimenting and returning to my "make it up as I go" formula. I don't expect you to read my mind, I give you more credit than that. But I trust you to follow along and piece things together however you feel. That is the point of art; you project your own expectations and interpret it how you wish.
I really hope you dig it. And please come back here to give feedback/rip into me ^_^
This story features the new team: half-assedly named "Team Dracula" and I will continue it at a later date. Need a mental vacation, but in reality I will be preparing my first 3 Team Mummy chapters for a POD volume. Which brings me too...
*Anyone interested in submitting fan art can go right ahead. I will include it in a bonus art page.
*Speaking of bonus content; I want to add a bonus page of women as Ninjarella; anyone interested please go right ahead - this is what she looks like (click for more info!!)
Well, I guess that is it. Thank you guys for your time and indulging me and my bullsh*t. I'll come back another time when I am nearing the completion of my POD book and then beg you to buy it. ^_^
I am woefully behind in following the Team Mummy universe. I will remedy that tomorrow, when I'm not bleary-eyed and nearly passing out from exhaustion.
Not that I'm exhausted now. But I *am* bleary-eyed.
I like the character design of Team Mummy. It is very simplistic yet iconic. Plus the humor is great. When I see these characters I think Gothic Noir. Anyway, keep on releasing these!
I've seriously thought of trying to get my cat to wear a fedora and domino mask and sending the photographic evidence to you for the back matter. But then I remember that he'd bite my hand clean off as soon as he realized my plan. He's, in fact, sitting in my lap. Reading this. I await my slow death.
Anyway, looking forward to June (hopefully)! I'll be happy to have this in an easy-to-read-and-transport format.
Hello again! Sorry if I keep sprouting on you like this. It's like I'm that nasty thing ya caught from that boy/girl/hyrbid that one night at that "party."
Anyway, allow me to get you caught up on things: When we last saw Spy Crusher he was about to battle Uber-Hitler. If I drew the actual fight, it would probably have rocked HARD!
Now I present Chapter 6, wherein we meet back up with Buster McCoy, Dracula, and Spy Crusher II on the moon desert. AND we find out the final fate of Spy Crusher I
And finally, an update on the printed graphic novel "Team Mummy Vol.1" - I've sent it off to the enchanted printing press forest. It should be ready later in the month, after which I shall return and beg you to buy a copy so that my reason for existing will have not been in vain ^_^
