Mae Volume One is now available… and I have a comic in it!

Heads up, completists. I have a three page story in the new Mae Volume One TPB from Dark Horse Comics. This is the same one I co-wrote (with Mae creator Gene Ha) and as a thank-you for backers of its original Kickstarter edition — and Dark Horse’s editors decided to include the story in the back matter of this new collection, along with a bunch of other short stories by other great creators.

BUT… I have a story in a Dark Horse-published book! That’s cool!

If you’re not familiar with Mae, it’s an all-ages adventure comic by Gene Ha (Top Ten and a billion other comics). Here’s the official Dark Horse synopsis:

When she was just a girl, Abbie discovered a portal to a fantasy world and has since had great adventures there: defeating horrible monsters, power-mad scientists, and evil nobles. But when she turned twenty-one it all came apart and she decided to return home. Her sister, Mae, had no idea what happened to Abbie all this time, and Abbie’s tales are too hard to believe—that is, until the monsters and other terrible creatures start to cross over to our world . . . Collects issues #1–#6.

I highly recommend it. It is a lot of fun. You can learn more about Mae Volume One on Amazon.

Multiplex: The Revenge final cover

(Unless I change something at the last minute.) If you see a typo, let me know. :)

Anyway, Book Three is on track to go to the printer TODAY. The next step is proofreading the electronic proof, and then the next step after that is proofreading the physical proof (in a few weeks). So, you know, don’t hold your breath yet. It’s a process.

Also! In case you missed the very quiet announcement, I’ll repeat it here: since Multiplex is ending in the next couple of months, I have started a tinyletter so you people can stalk me more easily. I’ll use it to send uh tinyletters about my upcoming (Multiplex and non-Multiplex) projects and junk like that. It’s basically a very simple e-mail newsletter. I won’t use it often; just to give you the heads up on Kickstarter projects launching and whatnot, since not everyone can afford to support my creative endeavours via Patreon.

Multiplex: Chapter 15 — and the full Book Three eBook set — are now available!

Multiplex_Ch15_eBook-cover-large

Kickstarter and Patreon supporters have already got their copies, but for the rest of youse: The Multiplex: Chapter 15 PDF eBook is now available!

Chapter 15 collects strips #311–338 from the Multiplex archives, plus three bonus comics not found in the archives — including “The Abyss Gazes Also,” an all-new twelve-page mini-epic. Chapter 15 costs $2.99.

Since Chapter 15 is done, you can also get all five Chapter eBooks for Book Three — Chapters 11–15 for $7.95. If you get the five eBook set, you’ll also get a PDF of the six-page “The Story So Far” sequence from the beginning of the upcoming print book (about one page of which is new art).

And remember — Chapter 11 is free!

 

Oh… Stealth announcement: the Multiplex Store is no more. If you need access to your digital files that you bought through that, just shoot me an e-mail. I will have something different set up by the time Book Three is available.

Production on Book Three is winding down

I thought I’d share this one publicly, rather than just to the Kickstarter and Patreon folks. It’ll be used as the “chapter illustration” for the back matter — which means that it will be directly opposite the last page of the comics in Book Three.

Anyway. I just have a couple of illustrations (the cover and the cover/chapter illustration for Chapter 15) before production is officially wrapped — which means I’ll be moving on to proofreading, pre-press, and  other boring stuff next! BUT there will be movie review comics and things like that going up at Kickstarter and Patreon during that time.
