Since this latest book project began there has been a lot development ongoing as the story and art for the first issue has been in production. A lot of ideas have been updated over and over in an effort to give the audience the absolute best story we can do. Art, logos even production techniques have been under constance revision. I intended to do more web blog updates but the work on the story and art as well as life in general prohibited my intentions from becoming reality. This has been slow work  for me since it’s not yet able to generate an income. My full time work has to come first which keeps food on the table for my family. But also one thing I did not want to do was get so far along and not be able to complete the first issue. It had been a while since I’ve done comic book work when I started this project. A lot has changed and there has been a re-learning curve in doing things mostly digital. But it’s a real blast learning!  So the idea was to do slow development and not to actually start promotion until the book was complete. That included the website. So there have been updates spaced apart by months but that is about to change and everything will begin to get more consistently updated as we move into the promotions stage of the project. The first issue is complete and I’m working on the merchandise as well as streamlining the web site in preparation for the first issue launch. Still a lot to do but the goal is on the horizon now.

So hang in there, faithful ones! I hope to make it worth your wait.  I appreciate your patience in the large gaps of time in between posts.

Thanks! – Mark
