G-Man Updates

I know that G-Man is everyone’s favorite comic that I work on (who could resist that college-ruled paper background, lack of color or shading, the high school humor, and the artwork that looks it was illustrated during math class?), so I wanted to make sure everyone was aware that I just updated a few additional pages online.

G-Man: The Defender of Food has officially reached 65 pages right now, but I have so many more left to clean up before I can start working on new content for G-Man.  I was working on some web banners over the weekend for my comics, and started thinking about some of the stories that I’d like to tell – and how much further I have to go in this continuity before I could even think about telling them.  There’s so much back story that hasn’t even been revealed yet that I couldn’t even think of doing a new page yet – readers would be like, “Who’s this and who’s that?”  I haven’t even gotten to the pages that introduce some main characters.

The alien, the one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eatter, Marty the Guido Slayer, and even G-Man’s worst enemy:  the Mystery Guy! 

However, I’m starting to try for regular updates for G-Man…weekly, if not monthly (monthly would obviously involve a larger influx of pages, where as weely would just be 2-4 page updates at a time). 

In any case, check out the new pages here (sorry I left you on a cliffhanger), and let me know what you think.

@$$hole 13: There’s Something About Susie

Since I have tomorrow off, and probably won’t go anywhere near the internet (thanks to having an extra-ciricular workload that is a little overwhelming, but not unrealistic), so I’ve opted to post the images for @$$hole #13 early for everyone.  The official page will not go up until 3am tonight, however, so if you click the link to it, you won’t get anywhere. 

Finishing off the battle against the girl from the Ring, I had to give her a name.  Since I didn’t feel like getting into a legal battle (especially an international legal battle) if I ever got around to selling these stories, I decided that the best way to end it was to give her a name.  I’ve always thought it strange that they changed the character’s name in the American release, since I’ve seen Sadako referenced in several other Japanese media.  Apparently, she’s like Freddy Krugar…only more scarey, and less annoying. 

The character will continue to pop up (in fact, the next several pages feature her), but her story arch is done.  She’ll certainly play a major role in later stories, however, as she’s becoming Trevor’s roommate.  I have a few stand-alone strips for the next month or so, and then we’ll get into the next story arch.  Something a little more sophomoric, and I hope a little more funny.

I’ve been spending a good deal of my time lately writing The Temple of a Thousand Tears: The Legend of Abraham, since my friend Olivia has volunteered to illustrate the 25 page “missing chapter.”  It will fill in the gaps about what caused an entire religion to form around this little kid, and the events that lead up to his receiving the Seven Lost Keys of Abraham.  I hope it’s interesting for everyone, since it’s a tale worth telling, and Olivia’s artwork is awesome!

In any case, I hope everyone has a great weekend.  I plan to spend a good deal of it trying to work on a new portfolio, and not playing video games….
