April 2010 Archives

All the cool kids have facebook fanpages, so we figured we needed on too. Because, like who's cooler than us, right? Exactly. 

So go add us on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/CosmicHellcats and tell all your friends to too. You can post photos over there if you've met us at a comicbook convention or if you have fan art. You can give us suggestions. You can... I dunno... Do whatever it is people do on facebook.

And while you're at it, please add http://www.facebook.com/maverickphoto which is my photography fan page.

Pittsburgh Comicon 2010 is in the books. I want to thank everyone who came out to support me and Max and especially thank Damsel, Chaste, Trix and Sahara for helping us out at the show. If you don't know Trix and Sahara, then you should definitely read today's strip because they both just debuted as two of the four Starfoxes that will be part of the strip for some time to come.

Thanks again to them and it was great meeting so many fans and other comic creators. Hopefully once I'm a little better rested we'll be posting some of the pics from the convention here in the blog. So stay tuned.

Max and Mav made their return to Pittsburgh Comicon on Friday and we'll be there today as well. We're even bringing along a couple of the models the strip is based on. So if you're in the Pittsburgh area, or driving distance to it, please come on down and meet us. You can pick up copies of our new book and get your picture taken with a real life Hellcat. What better way to spend a weekend afternoon.

So as you can see by our handy dandy little pledge graph, we've hit our goal of $1200, so we will in fact be publishing and we will be taking Cosmic Hellcats back to Pittsburgh Comicon with the new books to boot. 

Since we still have some time left on the pledge drive, I've decided to try something else as well. We're going to try to put together ANOTHER book just in time for Comicon. This will be an all original project. New art. New stories. New Characters. But still in the Hellcats universe. I've already contacted some other artists about working on it with me, and they seem excited. I'm not sure exactly how much we're going to have yet, but it's definitely going to be fun. 

So here's what I'm asking for. If we can make another $500 in pledges by the cut off date (meaning a minimum of $1730 in pledges) I'll throw in the extra book for everyone who's pledged at least $10 or more (including all the old pledges). So if you've already pledged and want to add more, you can or you can tell your comic loving friends to do the same so that you get more stuff. And if you haven't pledged yet, well... what are you waiting for? Now is the time. There's good stuff to be gotten.

Seriously, thank you all for the help. I hope you're as excited about this as we are.
