Tshirts now on Pre-order! and a cat's tongue bath

Posted by Comick - February 25th, 2011

Hi everybody! Wow I haven't posted any updates in months....so here are some things I've been doing.

First big announcement is that T-shirts based on my comic "In The Dark" are now on Pre-Order! :D YAY!
Limited to only a small press set of 150 shirts, they are silk-screen painted, and on heavy black cotton. Its been a long time coming to get these shirts this far, and after months of hunting I found a local shop willing to do a PREORDER deal with me. Basically the shirts will be produced when the minimum sale quota is hit. The more people order, the faster the shirts will be able to get produced. So just a note, this means by purchasing this shirt you are agreeing to a wait time of unknown timeframe since it depends of the sales, so patience is appreciated and this is not like amazon.com haha I'm an independent artist making a rare limited item. But the very fact I can offer you guys a shirt is a dream I've been working hard on achieving, so it's almost there! Also just as a promotion, I'm selling the first shirts at a discount price ^_^ Once the quota is hit, the price goes back to normal, so if you want it cheap than order it now! And of course Issue one of the comic is for sale too In The Dark Webstore Thanks again to all the people who asked and noted me for a shirt; I am totally grateful for the support!!

In other news, Issue 2 of the comic has been regularly updated with new pages thanks to a new time management system I have set up. I swear that this issue is so much fun because of all the cartoony demons I get to draw haha. For anyone new and not aware of my comic series you can read it on my blog In The Dark Blog or my Deviantart page Comick's DA page .

And anyone wondering what's happening with Ep1 of In the Dark cartoon, sorry for the delay! I most definitely underestimated the time and speed I animate, so its moving super slow...and real life drags me from the computer as well! Progress wise its more than half way done and the final running time for the short is 3-4mins with a 1 min special cartoon Easter egg. Hopefully I can ask Tom or Wade for a larger limit size since the whole thing is graphic heavy and I sense its going to get over the 10mb limit :T Well, I'll handle that when I get it finalized and everything!

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST: I drew a new picture and posted it in the art section:D Its a lazy cat giving itself a tongue bath. It was sitting with a bunch of doodles I drew last night in my sketch book, and struck me as a good piece to color up in Photoshop. Some comments on it would be cool ^^

And below is a picture of the shirt's final art!

that would be so cool to buy one! i imanigne how people would react with that shirt
:D and by any chance after seeing the cat drawing , will you ever draw giygas from the video game earthbound anytime soon :)

Comick 2011-02-25 17:47:40

Thanks! Since I posted this I've had a number of orders so this is good news for the shirt! :D And I don't know who is giygas ^^; I never played earthbound...so chances are that no, I won't draw him/her/it/thing. lol

zaxe7 2011-02-25 22:58:46

Looks amazing!!! Hope things keep getting better for you and your artwork.

Comick 2011-02-25 22:58:46

Thanks man! I appreciate it :D

RedMask 2011-02-26 00:35:20

WELL.... looks like I'll have to buy all 150 seeing as how I can't wait for them to ship. =P

Comick 2011-02-26 00:35:20

Lmao! I don't need to sell all 150 to get them made! The minimum is to sell 50 shirts (1/3rd of the projected sales) and then he will start production! But thanks for the compliment =p haha

BLIZZARDLIZARD 2011-03-02 10:41:36

only 15$? DO WANT. i prolly cant, but i really would like too, on other news, is the next section of the comic coming out? i wanna see it! hows the flash coming, and you know, all that geeky fanboy stuff!

Comick 2011-03-02 10:41:36

haha well thanks for the verbal support at least X] yeah the 2nd issue has been updating with new pages on my blog and DA (see links above) and yeah cartoon is moving up :) (again the update is written above lol). Thanks again man!!

ExtraDan 2011-03-05 07:38:48

ohh... sorry...i'm just upset and sed....
when will you gonna finish your cartoon?

Comick 2011-03-05 07:38:48

I'm a little more than half done :)

NesCartridge 2011-03-25 00:42:40

Judging by your page header, I believe your insane...

Insanity and the ability to animate, that can't be a good sign... Never the less, your are a good animator and i respect you for that :)

Comick 2011-03-25 00:42:40

haha thanks man! I'll take that as a compliment and glad you liked my work :)

Roddrigo9 2011-03-28 17:21:37

Your animation,animating little boxes was REALLY good,i left a comment there,make sure you read it.
international shipping? i like the shirt.

Comick 2011-03-28 17:21:37

Hey thanks! :D Yeah I've been completely overwhelmed by the positive response for my 3am boxes! Also cool, yeah I ship it international you just click the country and it will add the shipping to the total :) Thanks so much!

Determinator 2011-03-29 20:46:53

Oh no, Comick. I know what you do with your Easter eggs. Consider me off the hunt. Hey, if they won't let you upload the entire finalized version, do you think you could find a place to upload it where the file size isn't restricted? Still, 3-4 min, like to hear that! I love 'em looooong 'n' thick.

Saw Sonic Paradox 6. Loved your Army of Darkness referrence! In my opinion, you beat all the others.

Comick 2011-03-29 20:46:53

The easter eggs will be funnnn haha. And no worries when its done I will ask (beg) them for a limit change. If they say yes then awesome! If not then uh...its on Deviant art I guess :T

Determinator 2011-03-30 00:04:37

BTW, have you come up with a sound track yet? If you were allowing something from the Metal genre to set the atmosphere, I wanted to suggest using "Hollow Ground" by The Haunted. "Walk with me in Hell" by Lamb of God is also a good one, and a bit self-explanatory. Don't know if you'd be able to take the vocals out.

Comick 2011-03-30 00:04:37

Yeah my cartoon doesn't use any borrowed or commercial music. It all custom made music by my good friend Shadowfox2. He's making the main score for episode 1 and the credits music is from my friend Armon.

Ziggyness 2011-03-30 04:50:00

After watching your "Boxes" submission I couldn't help but wonder how you feel about society. It's a very unusual style that you use. It's very effective.

Comick 2011-03-30 04:50:00

Hey thanks man! Well I study and have a degree in philosophy and art so I enjoy looking at social structures and taking them apart to question how we run our lives for better or for worse. So the song I knew from years ago (the original one from the 60s) and it was an accident that I found this cover version. When I heard the way the Decembrists warped the melody I was hit with inspiration and a whole story that expanded on the songs meanings with the plot and the boy...but at 3am I was pretty delusional and tired and the animaton really started getting more and more insane as the piece went on haha. Anyways thanks for watching it and glad you liked it too!

Ziggyness 2011-04-02 09:46:03

To your response above, it's very sobering to watch social structures. We're more or less prisoners, living in ticky-tacky boxes, working 9-5 for that ever-important dollar, the bars on the cage.

demonataman 2011-04-06 21:12:27

can't wate for the flash you comic are awsome and you'r art are twist evily great best of luck to you in the futer keep up the good work

Comick 2011-04-06 21:12:27

Thanks for looking at my work! Hopefully more will be coming up soon

MADNESSRULES1111 2011-05-29 11:12:03

Comick 2011-05-29 11:12:03

Well it might come out in July but yeah its hard to tell right now since I'm so busy working on an art show in the city.

Celx-Requin 2011-07-27 10:33:50

Holy rat fetus Batman, look at this old decaying newspost!

Incidentally I am moving to California next month, I can put in a good word for you at the Samuel Freeman Gallery in Santa Maria if you would like... Perhaps they would be inclined to represent you.

Comick 2011-07-27 10:33:50

Geez you'e right! D: Feb?? I can't believe it's been that long since an update here! I guess I should dust this off a bit and let people know some progress ^^

And that's cool, you'll be in Cali. It's a nice state to live in heh :) Wow yeah man that would be so awesome if you did that! :D Thanks for even considering it!! Hopefully some new stuff and UPDATES to come along soon...so here I go! *gets back to drawing*
