Check this out,
Ed and I will be running around Mid-Ohio Con October 22-23. No table this time, but if you happen to be at the show and want to say hi, @ us on Twitter @leecherolis and @edcho7000. We will see your @reply.
Did you know we put out a comic anthology last year? Of course you didn’t. Last year we had almost no way to promote it. But it occurred to us at a recent convention that maybe some of you might be interested. It’s all short stories by Indiana-based comic artists who are pretty much all members of our local cartoonist meetup group. I’m in it, Ed’s in it, Sam’s in it.
We’ve already broken even on the print run (self-financed) so all sales now go towards supporting our artist group and funding events like our monthly meetups, annual Comix Rock Art & Music Showcase, group projects like more anthologies… And who doesn’t like supporting independent comics?
On Little Guardians, a new Thistlewhite’s Journal page will be up Friday and Chapter 1 will continue with Page 15 this coming Monday.
Thanks for reading!
Well, so much for the semi-sympathetic reader comments towards this guy. Hold off on them for another hundred pages or so, methinks.
Shoulda known that glass ceiling would come crashing down on her. I’m wondering if the direction your comic goes will challenge the typical perception of women in comics.
Well, given that the doctor decided it was horrible for the guardian to be presented a daughter instead of a son, bad treatment of hard working girls was to be expected. So although I don’t like Yunda much I’m not condemning him yet, he might just be average in this regard.
Currently I’m expecting the comic will be about both Subira and Idem, with both having one half of guardian-hood – Subira the talent, and Idem the training. (And I think that if Subira had been accepted as heiress of the guardian and got the training, she would have been a good guardian)
That would make sense.
Afterall, there’s not much point in setting up a switched-at-birth thing, with particular emphasis on gender as the reason, unless you’re planning to make the girl who was switched a significant part of the story, challenging preconceived ideas of gender conformity.
In the mean time, let us simply enjoy the gratuitous, gratuitous mockery as a comfort from the cold reality of the actual glass ceiling.
Poor kid! Now she’s going to get some serious motivation to get out! destiny.. and all that stuff!
GUYS. Forget that Gong’s a boy. Gong’s OLDER. At least in my my raising that’s a pretty heavy quality in his favor.
Not that I’m disregarding the whole “guardian can’t be a girl thing.” NOPE
