Gonna be another crazy busy week at work. Looking forward to it ending soon.
Getting my convention and speaking schedule together for 2010, and should be making some announcements in the near future about my appearances. Looking forward to a fun filled year of cons and fans.

Back to the old man narrator…but who could he be talking to (we’ll find out in this story)? Has he been talking to this person all along throughout the prequel stories? How did he get his hands on Marielle’s personal diary? And why is this information so important…?
Finally, by popular demand, Marielle’s fateful events in her own words.
Happy 2010, everyone!
Be sure to tune in on January 12 (8pm central time) for my live interview on TGT Webcomics. We’ll be talking about The Temple of a Thousand Tears and you can ask questions via call-in or the talkshoe chat room. Ever wanted your questions answered by the creator of a comic series? Now’s your chance!
One page splash! Rock!
I just got back to Chicago from home, having spent several days there visiting family and friends. I have two days off from work on vacation to recover / work on comics, and then I’m back to the grind stone. Here’s hoping that there are no more 11pm nights….
Have a great New Years, everyone, and I’ll see you in 2010!

- Best Writing

- Best Supporting Character – Susie (or the crazy cat lady…or the waiter)

Tried a new coloring technique for the cover of Assassin. It still needs some work (and Seymour is WAY too dark), but it was fun to experiment and play a little again. Time was my major constraining factor on this one. There are not enough hours in a day. Especially outside of work.
Next week the comic starts proper, and it’ll be a 32 page romp of awesome!

Here’s a single page summing up the two previous prequels in this series, to help catch new readers up to speed – and also so everyone else doesn’t have to re-read everything that came before to know what’s going on. Assassin starts next week with a cover by myself, and then we’ll get right into the thick of it. Tell your friends.
Assassin takes place before, during, and after the events of Hikari, by the by, so some of the details may be nice to know from that story – but shouldn’t be necessary. Some half conversations will be completed, and the locations of some characters (like where was Malukai during Sophia’s attack) should be answered.
Still deciding if I want to put the extended Bushido story in before the finale in Holy War, but I have some time to figure that one out.
In the meantime, I’m going back to writing scripts. I’m so behind….
Later!

Just a reminder that the next story arc needs a few weeks to get going, so in the meantime I’m posting some supplemental materials. To tease a bit about the up coming Assassin story arc from Olivia, here are some of her sketches for Seymour and Marielle. Next week will be some additional bonus content. Comic should start in late December.
I hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving!

Holy boobs! That’s right, Sophia had to remove her dressings and her shirt in order for someone to get in there and help redress her injured ribs. Most of that blood isn’t hers, though. It’s her sisters.
Sounds like her suicide mission is something that we’ve seen before. I fear that this story parallels the original Temple story a little too closely in terms of plot points, but at least I was able to divide up the beats a bit better. This story feels like it flows better, has more action and adventure, and is overall a more fun story to read. The first story suffered from some slower periods. It’s amazing what you can learn about writing in 8 years.
Wizard world was a blast, and I hope to have pictures posted to the blog soon. I may also try to turn some of them into a photo story arc for my other comic, @$$hole!, but we shall see.
Speaking of @$$Hole!, the comic was nominated for two Drunk Duck Awards this year:
1) Best Photo Comic (second year in a row)
2) Best Socio/Political Comic
Thanks to all who read and voted!
