Hi everyone! I've come back from the APE Alternative Press Expo and it was a BLAST! I sold lots of copies of my books (in fact I'm almost all sold out of issue 1 now!), met a lot of people, and just had fun selling at a con of this size for the first time. The only thing I could think of for next time is to maybe bring some easels of my larger artworks to hang behind me and maybe a cool banner sign would look nice too.
But now on to the big announcement! Yes, Issue 2 is DONE! YAY It basically took me 2 years to draw this huge 48 pages graphic novel 2nd chapter but yes its now printed and for sale in my web store! In The Dark Issue 2 A few people have been asking me if I will still post the rest on the pages now...and I had a really hard time deciding this. I want these books to start getting into comic shops and they all said the same thing...they don't want to stock a book that's totally free online because it means the book has nothing exclusive to offer the buyer. So for now, the complete rest of issue 2 (an extra 14 pages!) is only available in the book. In a few months I'm also working with a friend to have both issue 1 and 2 for sale as downloadable comics for smartphones and tablets too so that will be another way to get a hold of the last pages soon enough. Issue 2 is 48 pages printed on bright white heavy stock and SUPER black inks and the cover is glossy and the colors pop so nice. It's not a cheap newsprint comic with that onion skin-thin paper that rips when you flip it haha. So yeah the money from book sales goes into a savings so I can afford making the next issues at all so please support it if you can! I can't wait to start on Issue 3: Promiscuous >:3
The 2nd bit of news is the new shirt! Skitzo the bear has now been preserved onto a nice cotton black shirt for your horror haha. They had pretty good feed back at the show so that was a good sign you can get one here now! Skitzo T-shirt
Also for the APE I had a very SPECIAL GOODIE for sale that made a big surprise for some people ...Evil Bird and Clash the Duck plushies! They were made by my sister especially for the con and gained a lot of attention by comic goers passing by haha. We had only a few left by the end, so I'm putting them in the store as well if anyone wants the last plushies! There are only 3 Clash ducks Clash Plush , 4 grey birds and 2 pink birds Evil Bird Plush and each one is hand-sewn
On the side note of SPECIAL GOODIES, anyone who preordered anything last week I realized my store had the book priced wrong D: so for the fact you spent an extra .95 cents I'm sending you a special token of thanks with your orders...a password-protected link to preview IN THE DARK Episode 1! And I'm getting ready now for the holiday/new year's season which means a new evil X-mas card will be sent out to anyone who orders from my store up to Dec 25th thanks again everyone!
