I think there might have been a couple of you that I didn’t see at the show last night. That’s cool, good thing is you’re in luck because they now have an audio podcast of the entire thing! You can visit the CBC site and comment on it or you can listen to the podcast directly here. Of course, iTunes users can listen to it by following this link.

Ultra-Lad!

Well, it’s finally official. My none too subtle hints and news leaks have been pretty transparent but here’s the official announcement. Look to the Act-i-vate site for my upcoming webcomic, “The Transmigration of Ultra-Lad” in early June. I’ll have more exact information as we approach launch so please stay tuned.

This story is a future chapter of the Process and it is a standalone story. It’s comprised of scans of a long lost comic from early in the last century so the print quality and pages are a little worn and deteriorated with age. The comic title is “The New Adventures of Ultra-Lad” and this issue’s story is entitled, “The Transmigration of Ultra-Lad”. Here’s the logo design as best as I’ve been able to reconstruct it.

Ultra-Lad!

So there you have it. Aren’t you excited! I sure am and I’ll be posting more teasers prior to launch. Once we get that show on the road things will get a little more regular here on this site as well. Your patience and my hard work will be rewarded.

Tonight, Tuesday May 27th, I’ll be joining the folks at Comic Book Club at the Peoples Improv Theater for a discussion of comics including Borrowed Time 3, the Process and my upcoming project for Act-i-vate! So if you’re in the New York area, please consider joining us. I’m sure you’ll find my squirming nervousness punctuated by spurts of lofty loquaciousness entertaining and enlightening. The Schadenfreude alone is worth the price of admission.

Here’s proof that satisfaction is guaranteed when you commission a sketch. Not only did I get an email when the piece was delivered but an email full of photos posing with the sketch! This level of enthusiasm deserves recognition and here it is:

This gentleman is a fan of this project and was particularly keyed up about Ultra-Lad. So much so in fact, that I had to warn him that if he sent me any more ideas about the character, I’d have to credit him! In all sincerity, this sort of thing really makes me feel good…it’s not often that I get to meet someone this excited about one of my creations. Frankly, his enthusiasm is infectious and I am very thankful to have his support. Cheers, you are a Prince among men

Want to join in the love? Well, it’s a simple donation away. A $25 donation gets you a black and white sketch and a $50 donation or more gets you a full color sketch such as this. Please note, photos of you with the sketch are optional and public display of said photos is not required.

Big Shiny Robot has interviewed my friend and colleague, Neal Shaffer, to talk about his comics work including Borrowed Time as well hint at current and future projects. It’s an excellent read and has some cool insights into the creative life of this comics creator.
