Yesterday I publicly released the very first look at the cover to the third issue of our comic John Dixon's Air Hawk that is presently being expertly designed by Don Ticchio. (The cover was illustrated in 2010 by Gary Chaloner.) This third issue (the "First Internationally Released Issue"!) is due to be carried by Diamond Distribution, and is planned to be released in May 2025. Our second issue? It is due to be picked up from the printer in mere days. In the meantime, Rob Feldman's Fridge Boy From Space comic has completed its Kickstarter campaign, and I am happy to report that we were able to clearly make our target, with thanks to all the people who kindly backed the project. Rob himself was most enthusiastic in getting involved with the campaign, posting video after video that was used to promote the comic at various stages of the Kickstarter campaign. Indeed, I was so taken by his contributions, that I felt it would be remiss of me not to record each and every video here for posterity! So, please enjoy (and see if there were any you missed on seeing the first time around)! The Kickstarter announcement! The genesis of the idea; how it was formed and came to be...
Rob reading part of the comic...! What is a Splash Page, and how do you share your knowledge in polite circles?! Reviewing "Fridge Boy From Space"... A REAL review of the comic! Two days until the Campaign ends...! Finishing the campaign! Thanks EVERYONE!! Getting the Rewards out there (well, the first of them)! Were some videos missed? YES! There was one that announced the halfway mark of the campaign (and it was really funny! I can't seem to find it as I type this, so maybe it's one to share for another day!
