Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

I'm doing the butt pose cat satan!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

oh yeah i was definitely not expecting you to actually draw that stuff!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

even tough it's a great idea

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

ooooo that is hot

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

I feel like drawing it on paper and maybe trying to do some pencil shading, so to much stuff wouldn't be fun :P

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

nonono

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

stan lee autograph

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

horrible action figures

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

dumb comics, like making fun of ALF or something

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

just terrible things. inflatable sex doll superhero

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

haha he could have a wagon of shit he bought at the show

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

he's totally got that nerdy con-goer thing happening.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

but i also think this is really fucking good at this angle

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

yeah, you could do a brokeback pose

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

it's so good.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

OMG yes the boob window.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

I should probably do a butt pose

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

i doubt that it will be a problem though. luckily, she doesn't have a logo.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

worst case scenario is that you make a print out of it instead of the cover because action lab is too scared

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

ok lemme do a sketch thingy

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

so it could have the goggles, the cat ears, a tail, and some clevage

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

and also because it's parody

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

we could probably get away with it for two reasons: she's had so many costumes that it's not like you can say "this is officially catwoman"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

and a catwoman like costume is to hard becuase she's had 10000 costumes

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

but thats like copyright shit

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

at the same time! nice.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

OMG

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

or catwoman

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

catwoman

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

maybe a shitty devil costume?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

hmmm would costume would satan wear?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

what costume could we get away with?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

it could say "comic-con exclusive comic-con cover!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

mhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

that would reveal the new appostles tough

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

what about Satan decked out like he's at a comic con? in some terrible cosplay with a back full of stuff and a camera

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

http://cdn.bleedingcool.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/wedding-aquaman18.jpg

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

"damn! did you just rip on, dorkules?"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

I don't feel like I can make him look pregant without saying he is because he allready has the gut

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i'm thinking maybe moses should say something about the fart instead.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

haha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

maybe he could have a basketball and a dildo instead?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

preggers satan is good

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

hahaha nice

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

i'm gonna change a line of dialogue in the moses / herc fight. it's too similar to the page before it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

yeah, that might work well.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

the shirt doesn't help it might work better with a shirt that just cover his breast

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 1, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

yeah it blows because this charger has been iffy for a long time now, but it's finally officially dead... maybe i should buy two in case this happens again.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 1, 2015 at 12:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

thats to bad, but that might be why she's got an IDW and Darkhorse book

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

she's so into the business side of comics that i think she kinda forgets the "let's just have fun" part of it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

oh well

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 30, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 11:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 29, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

I think it gives a pretty fair view of what I can do

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

http://darrudamassa.tumblr.com/

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

which tumblr?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

yeah link him my tumblr so he can see for himself

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

yeah, understood. well let me start with this question. i'll send him the link to Holy F*cked #1, and i'll tell him your style is flexible, depending on how they want to go with the look of the Full Moon books.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

stuff that might get into the general direction of what they might want a Dollman book to look like

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

dark stuff in general

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

like other styles?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

lemme see if I have anything else

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

i'll probably attach some of your new Holy F*cked art to the email... first issue, i guess?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

good. i'm gonna send it now.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

seems okay to me tells what we want in a straightforward yet polite way

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

Does that look okay? Is there anything I should add or leave out?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

yours is better

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

*creative team

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

"I mentioned the Full Moon stuff to my Holy F*ck collaborator, Daniel. Coincidentally, he expressed some interest in Dollman right after I emailed you about pitching that specific property. What do you think about us pitching it as a creative? Would you be cool with that?"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

how tosay it mhhh "I'd like to pitch Dollman. And I'd like to co-plot it with Master D-Dog and He's gonna draw that shiz too. peace"

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

okay, so here's how i'm thinking of bringing it up to him:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

a Pittsburgh guy I know from before Action Lab started

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

one of the founders

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

ah

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Puppet Master writer

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Shawn Gabborin is the EIC of regular Action Lab

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

who's shawn again?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

trying to think of how to say it...

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

i'll ask Shawn, too.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

very cool with me. i love working with you!!! and i'm stoked you're down to give this a shot.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

sooo option tres if thats cool with you

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

I could start with ONS around issue 3 if both would get picked up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

lets do dollman

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

hahaha someing centimeters

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

1/3 meter tall. would anyone ever say that? hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

how many meters is 13 inches? .4

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i mean, you would kill on Dollman, no doubt. pissed off 13 inch cop? awesome.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

yeah but it would make both a bit slower

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

and i guess you could always work on it at the same time as One Night Stand if that comes through

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

lemme ask amanda for advice

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

yeah potentially it would be greenlit before SDCC because i imagine they'd want to announce it there.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

if we would get dollman and I start drawing late july early august and we do 3 issues I could be done by november

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i'm just guessing. i dunno.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

don't get me wrong... it's not bad! but that would be like $6000-7000 for four or five months of work.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

hahaha 100 is allot for me

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i imagine it's not much.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i might even be wrong about that.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

i dunno how much exactly... maybe $100 a page for full art?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

mhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

I haven't even tought about that part

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

well that's nice of you to say. frankly, i'm not worried about you messing anything up! you rock and your art rocks and i'd be thrilled to work on this with you. however, my main concern is that we commit to this and then end up getting the greenlight on One Night Stand. with that said, i imagine this gig would come with a small page rate and there's no guarantee with that for ONS.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

I'd love to do 3 but I don't want to mess it up for you in case they don't think I'm a good fit

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

hahaha so i take it you wanna go with option 3 ;)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

pfoo well I'm trying to download it :3

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

3. we do it together. we both watch it, brainstorm, plot, etc. kinda like our Holy F*ck writing process. we pitch it with them knowing it's a package thing, which means i'd have to tell them at this stage probably.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

2. i do the meat of it solo but consult with you. that way we make sure that it's a direction you would like to go. i can or can not tell them you're interested.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

1. i do it solo. if they like and you like it, then we can work on it together.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

three options:

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

should that leaves me with the question of how to proceed...

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

BTW i heard back from Shawn Gabborin about Full Moon... he hasn't gotten a Dollman pitch yet so i'm definitely gonna do that one

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

nice.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

coloring a pencil one now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

there's a cool squiggle to the line that reminds me of ballpoint. but then again, it could just be the squiggle from zooming in on any pen drawing.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

don't think so

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

ballpoint pen?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

thanks man I love him too

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

it's sweet! great personality.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

I drew it in 2012 I think and just colored it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

is it you?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

OMG i love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i love SCI-FI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

but westerns have always bored me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

cartoons i get! i love me some cartoons. i would be the biggest fucking anime fan in america if i was growing up now.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

just that i've never really understood the appeal of westerns

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

how so?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

interesting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Westerns and Cartoons

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

but It did help me wanting to speak English as a kid

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

I understand that I just don't bother anymore

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

sometimes i think it's fun but mostly it bores me.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

I wouldn't know I used to watch the zorro series and I think I have some books aswell

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Batman's kind of an asshole nowadays, though. at least Zorro is a nice guy.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

i mean, he's basically Batman on a horse with a sword

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

yeah becuase they all mexicans

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

i guess Zorro is kind of a western, though. people generally think Zorro is cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

yeah it's bad real bad

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

so like the black characters are slaves or just freed, the latino characters are all evil mexicans, and asian characters are all chinese railroad workers (if any asian characters at all). and then there's the native american stuff...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

I love django

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

there are so many immigrants in the states but mostly only white people get to be heroes in westerns (the way they're traditionally written)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

ohhhh luckyluke!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yeah those are ignored here

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

i think maybe western's are kinda not well received here is because they have a lot of cultural connotations...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

boring*

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

mobius used to do one but it was bring

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

nah but I like this one

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

oh wow that's like Civil War shit, not even six shooters and cowboy hats

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

Les Tuniques Bleues

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

some western comics are big here

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

dunno the only person I know that likes them is my dad

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

especially comics... there are almost no western comics here. but it's like the #1 thing in italy!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

i feel like westerns are more popular in the rest of the world than they are in america

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

hah! that's funny.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

I also grew up watching bonanza and such my dad loves that crap

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

they tried to make it big here like 15 years ago

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

I've heard about that

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

the fashion kind are everywhere... mostly in rural areas. country music is BIG business here.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

thats the pulp-y part

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

as for the crime fighting kind, i don't think they ever existed hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

and then there are fashion cowboys who dress in the hats and boots to dance to country music

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

yeah I guess the usually had a ranch but most of the time they were riding around shootin' dudes fighting crime

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

so like nowadays there are actual ranch hands who raise cattle and ride horses and shit...

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

or wait... literal

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

i meant actual

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

not little

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

and you're talking about western fiction where cowboys all ride through desert towns and shit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

oh wait im probably confusing you... i'm talking about little cowboys, like ranch hands

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

haha oh well the books were written by a dutch guy around WW2 I doupt he had ever been in the US

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

no worries. i can look him up.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

I just realized that Karl May is German

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

i dunno how much cowboying ever happened there

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

so arizona is mostly desert

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

i have no idea what that means

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

it was pretty much Karl May but watered down

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

set in arizona?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

as a kid my favourite book series was a pulp-y western for kids

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

but oklahoma and texas are really the main places

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

everywhere has em, at least in terms of fashion

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

:(

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

sorta not really

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

Arizona's still got cowboys right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

oh well

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

yeah... no.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

like pancakes and apple pie

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

the state name sounds friendly

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

hahaha I didn't know

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

well, pennsylvania has a lot of problems... go easy on them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Nederlandish sounds good to me

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Pennsylvania dutch.... they're germans

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

what about nederlandish?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

the whole holland and dutch was just a way for the english to show how little they cared

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

yup nederlanders

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

so you call yourselves nederlanders? i wish we did too. this whole Holland and Dutch thing is incredibly odd.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

good book tough

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

hahahaha what a dork

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

have you ever read bram strokers Dracula? that guy tought the spoke german in Amsterdam

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

thats not on us tough thats on the english language

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

right. not at all. it's just as simple as the name of your country and what i'm supposed to call people from your country! it all makes so much sense.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

this ain't confusing at all

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

groovy

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

I'ma try to tumb 2 more pages and then I'll put it up

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

glad to help

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

cool I like the bio thanks so much!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

I know I guess thats what I mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

i think that there's nothing wrong with making it... but it might be in our best interest for you to wait to release it until we know for sure what the plan is for One Night Stand. we still have a ton of publishers to hear back from and there are a few i'd still like to pitch to. i mean, SDCC is a potential opportunity for it as well. i know it's far away but in person we might really be able to make some good connections.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

I taught about making 8 page wonderkat comics but that seems to risky

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

I don't know I have tought quite a bit about it and I figured aslong as I don't make comics about it that I show to the world

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

but at the same time, i wonder (hehe nice pun) if they'll be like "the cat's already out of the bag!" (oh man i'm on fire today)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

yep

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

i dunno either. it's a fucking perfect image for the header

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

but I'll look for an alternative

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

I think they'll be okay with it aslong as I don't put Wonderkat comics on there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

I don't know

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

oh, also, thought of one other thing... do you think a publisher would feel weird if they saw wonderkat on your page after looking at the pitch? probably not, but i thought i'd ask because i'm not totally sure...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

i'm about to email you my bio idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

it's not but nobody else really has it

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

seems very complicated

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

???????????????????

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

yep. i do not get it at all.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

I went to stupid people school from when I was 12-16(ish I think) and then to like vocational school

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

sounds like it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

dutch system is fucked

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

huh? this confuses me.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

I'm gonna have a bachelors in applied science

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

whoooooooooooooooa

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

4

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

hahaha okay -- how long is the program? two years?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

the college is uninteresting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

comics is an awesome way of telling stories in an economic way and I like drawin' 'n stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

where are you studying it? do you want to name drop it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

I'l consider putting it on there. the thing in studying is call communications and multi media design.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

annnnd what do you love about comics? in a few words

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

also, how would you describe the classes you're currently taking? what kind of program is it?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

also, you might hate me for this, but i think you should put overexposed weasels as a front page link. i mean, it's a fucking great story and it's basically a completed graphic novel. just my opinion

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

is this for the front page or for your about page?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

thanks :)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

sweet!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

okay, cool. i'm already working on it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

just a short paragraph or two would be awesome

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

haha can i help you with your bio?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

yeah dude no pressure whatsoever. i'm fine with whatever you decide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

I'll see what I can do! I might just make the once on there bigger otherwise I have so much shit to draw

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

understood!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

I feel like scene where the guns come out could be even bigger, maybe a bit more exaggerated... basically, more guns / rockets / lasers / whatever!!! Just to make it feel really over-the-top, ya know? I dig how it is right now and I'm totally cool with it if you decide to leave it as it. I just think it we could sell it even more.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

Terrific action. It's gonna be amazing.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

I FUCKING LOVE EM!!!!! They're coming along great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Satan stuff is my favorite. It's so funny.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 28, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

I understand that I did that with nimona

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

yeah, i tend to binge after pages have built up.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

especially for stories

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

art style is fine, but usually feels one in a hundred. I can't really do the waiting for updates thing

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

ahhhh i see. i meant more like the art style and pacing of webcomics

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

I guess it's often not executed well and they usually try to tell un-interresting epics

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

tell me more......

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

mokay I don't know how I feel about it

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

which is what i tend to like nowadays

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

it is

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

very webcomics

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

I think I've even made it and I'm not into writing long pieces of text

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

yeah i've definitely made that mistake before. it's the worst way to start a comic.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

hahahaha nah just some random stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 27, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 27, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

yeah, i think the subtly is a bit more refined... also, i'm planning to use the same To Be Continued in every issue, so i think the consistency will be nice

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

it works boths ways the second one is allot more subtle

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

hahahaha! i'm also helping Heather Nunnelly with her pitch, so actually it was her even more because we've been talking about it so much. but it was DeWayne who reminded me that just writers could pitch.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 12:49am PDT

no problem

Nick MarinoFriday, April 24, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 24, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

I'm not sure what im gonna draw yet

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

oh ehmm

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

will it be black? or purple? or white? or gray? i know it won't be green. OR WILL IT?!?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

what color is the #4 cover? we have yellow, magenta, cyan, and then the orange tpb

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

it should be able to change from series to series

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

good point

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

I probably would but I also have wouldn't tell people with what font to write their name

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:03am PDT

i don't wanna read too much into it, but... why wouldn't you just use a font everyone has? dumb.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:02am PDT

oh well

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:02am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

it costs like $400, fucking dumb

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

of changing that stupid gotham font

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

i'll upload it and send to jason with all of the other covers and let him know final versions need his loving touch

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

lookin's sharp

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

don't blame the name, blame the game

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

the only thing that would make it better is if I would stop using the arruda part

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

whew good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

horizontal is fine

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

BUT THE HORIZONTAL

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

yeah i'll raise em

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

okay, so that's called vertical position

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

guess thats vertical

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

I think they can be a bit higher

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

okay, how to you like the horizontal positions of the names here?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

hahahaha not a big deal AT ALL

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

I'll blame my not feeling so well today on the writing error

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

haha whoopsie

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

Gotta wipe

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

BRB

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

I dunno about the festive name change... but this design is literally making me shit myself!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

Fucking sweet.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

IT'S MAGNIFICENT!!!!!!!!! And I love the stretchy Inspector Gadget hand! GENIUS!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

yeah i agree. i think we should just do that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

that works

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

reversed

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

hahaha my name's fucking shit up

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

here's exactly where the names were on the other cover

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

right... it's just okay

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

not bad perse

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:30am PDT

that's the best i have so far

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:30am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:30am PDT

niiiiice

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:23am PDT

I'll have a mecha sketch for you soon

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:23am PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 7:22am PDT

agreed. but the spacing doesn't fit with Jesus's foot. i have a few different versions included in the file... i'll take another look at it now and see what i think.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

I think whe should put our names on the same way as the volume 1 trade

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 23, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

i decided to fuck coloring the logo. it looks good. why mess with success?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:16pm PDT

added formatted versions of the four covers to the dropbox. only thing we still need to figure out is how/where to put our names on the TPB.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

i agree

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

it's alll good

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

i'm anal

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

you've been doing your pages at the equivalent of 2065 x 3133, which is actually perfect because when the pages get resized, a pixel around the entire edge ends up being about 50% opaque, so i need to crop it anyway

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

like i said, print no one will fucking see it but our digital stuff is all at full bleed so i'll tweak it. it's all good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

ah whoopsie

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

it looks like you did the covers at the equivalent of 2062 x 3029

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

yeah for pages / covers / whatever, our pixel dimensions are always 2063 x 3131

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

so interesting

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

I don't know anyone who uses it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

this is all new to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

but it makes for huge files

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

like the trade cover for example is packed with those I can make big art and edjust it quite easily

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

cool!!!! then i'm good to go

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

OMG i was wondering what the fuck that was

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

it's called a "smart layer"

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

whoa whhaaaat?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

if you right click on the art layer and chose edit contents you get to see the 600dpi version

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

that one was pretty easy but the other two are more complex

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

so i only need 2 and 3

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

issue 1 i already fixed! earlier hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

you know what... the issue 1 cover is actually 300dpi but I might be able to fix that

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

cool, yeah like after the show or whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

yesh I'll just drop it in the dropbox

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

hi-res

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

plus i love hires art hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

so you don't have to worry about it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

then i can toss them into the files

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

wanna send me the 600 dpi files?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

or in this case I just drag it in

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

that's how i normally do it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

to 300

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

do you change it to 300 or do you resize to a specific diemnsion?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

how do you decrease the size?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

not a big deal, but it's something i need to correct for the digital versions

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

ah

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

for the covers

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

i noticed that there are a few missing pixels on each side of the art

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

I do that with most of my stuff so I can be a little sloppy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

ya

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

did you draw and color your covers at 600 dpi?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

and 24 is even

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

i like giving the readers more

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

fine with me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

now there's 24 pages

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

yeah, that's cool. change anything

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

good! i tried to channel my inner Daniel Arruda Massa with that line

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I moved some stuff around from page 20 on tough

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

yup very much so

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

you likey?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

I had sex with my father's killer?!?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yeah they will

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

and these F*cked covers should pop even more

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yeah they always seem to pop

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

i mean, in photos. i've never seen our book in a store

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

something i love about your holy f*ck covers is how bright they are and how much they pop on the shelves

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

understood

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

'i'm just interested in seeing what some colors might look like

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

i like the white a lot too. i

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

do whatever you like. I like the white because it's so clean but I'm not set in my ways

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

which is okay with me

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

unless you're partial to the white

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

i gotta run an errand but when i get back i'm gonna toss the slightly tweaked logo on the other covers and try playing with the colors a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

constantly have it covered by explosions, speed lines, and punch impacts haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

groovy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

I'll just draw it detailed once and the frame it smartly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

it's awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

don't worry about it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

i'm game for making it so you're as psyched to draw this as possible!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

well what could we do to make things as easy as possible?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

probably but I'll figure it out

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

is the mecha too complicated?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i forgot you didn't read the script until now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

I guess I repressed it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

hahaha HOW COULD YOU FORGET???

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

I forgot about the mecha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

YOU MOTHER FUCKER

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

also

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

oh thanks! i forgot it was there for a sec

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

the short story before #4 was awesome as always

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

k cool!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i closed the vertical gap between the two words and spaced out the letters in HOLY a bit more evenly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

fine with me :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i dunno where i saved it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

uh oh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

flower alligator

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

also, what do you think of this logo tweak?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

what's a flowagator?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

that's a haunting photo!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

flowagator is back!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

this photo is haunting me

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

aight

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

I'll just do it unless they bring the variants up

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

i'm cool with anything you want to do. i might have opinions (like thinking you're gonna be better than anyone else we get, for example... plus you'll also be there to sign it). but i'm also gonna back you up 100% if there's a particular route you really want to go.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

it's cool with me I'll start thinking about what I would do for a SDCC exclusive

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

i'm not saying that will actually happen! i'm just like... WHAT IF?!? truth is i already brought it up and Jason never replied about it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

but then we can't bring up the SDCC one either :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

oh yeah totally it's such a distraction from the important stuff that's why i'm kinda like... what if we just don't say anything? will they forget about it and we won't have to worry about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

the considerations and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

variants in general

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

what part?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

this part sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

yeah I don't think the variants helped at all

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

yeah, in terms of art style, chances are they're not gonna drop my jaw with the visuals. but i'm thinking more in terms of the sales, audience, and added awareness they can bring. frankly, none of our previous variant artists seemed to help with any of that in my opinion. BUT MAYBE I'M WRONG ABOUT THAT!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

I'd rather see them doing a pin-up to be honest, but I get the promotion thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

mainly, my thought is that we'll get a huge boost from their own individual promotion of the issue, both when it's time to order and when it's in shops. none of our variant artists -- Aaron, Kaylie, Jerry -- for Holy F*ck did much promotion.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

two artists I'm friendly with who have pretty decent online followings that might be kickass for #1 variants: Rebecca Cohen: http://www.gynostar.com/ http://www.gynostar.com/bad-princesses Kennedy Cooke-Garza: http://www.superbitchcomic.com/ http://www.superbitchcomic.com/gallery/

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

but the probably want a couple for #1

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

I'm also fine with no variants

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

i'm also fine with zero variants

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

since there's a good chance we're getting solicited SOON!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

yeash

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

ooops not people, i meant get ideas

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

k. in general, we should figure out what we're doing for variants for the whole series so we can get people lined up now.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

just the chew guy not much to know

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

i dunno much about him

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

seem right

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

I also would love Rob Guillory but for some reason it doesn't quite sound right

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

and potentially could happen because 1. he'll probably be there in support of Miami Vice Remix and 2. he really dug the concept

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

oooooo yeah that would be dope

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

Jim Mahfood wouldn't suck :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

awefull

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

sounds awesfull

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

maybe Obama could draw us one

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

yup love it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

his stuff is rockin

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

http://andrewmaclean.tumblr.com/

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

hahaha taht would be cool for issue 3 or something

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

also, i can do an extra super shitty F*ck Buddies variant hahahahahahaha!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

i'm down with that. do you have anyone in mind?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

If we can get someone of the Aaron level who will be there I think that would be great of not I'll just do it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

also, it would be cool to have that artist be at the show to sign the issue. actually, i think that's pretty crucial.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

personally, i think your variants are the best. plus you have so many fucking kickass styles. but if you really feel passionate about getting a good variant artist for it, i'll back you up on this.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

hahaha now I have to give an example right

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

mja?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

It also couldn't be done by just anyone

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

mja understood

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

Yeah, I agree extra special would be cool. I think having Aaron do the variant got us a few extra sales. But i'll be honest with you... the biggest thing that got us attention based upon the feedback I heard at NYCC was the concept, title, logo, description, and the fact that it was a convention exclusive. (Apparently NYCC posts a list of all convention exclusive issues online... maybe even in the program.)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

maybe it's just because I loved what Aaron did so much. But in general I still feel variants are silly(even tough we had some pretty cool once) but because of the special occasion I want it to feel extra special

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

you know

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

as in not disagreeing

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

*not

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

i'm no disagreeing, just curious why you feel that way

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

tell me more plezzzzeeezzz!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

ehm of all variants that one makes most sense to me

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 8:25am PDT

why's that?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 22, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

I think we should get someone to do our SDCC exclusive cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 10:54pm PDT

oni: oh well not that suprising Full Moon: :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 6:27pm PDT

FYI Full Moon has a deal in place with Action Lab to turn a ton of their properties into comics... getting announced at SDCC i imagine. i talked to Dave about it a bit this weekend and i just emailed him now to find out with properties are up for grabs. i dunno if anything will happen with it, but i'll keep you posted on stuffs.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

sooooooo... not One Night Stand, i guess!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

yeah it does

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

it's silly and works well enough with the original

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

awesome work

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:13pm PDT

laying down some flats on it

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:56pm PDT

plus, you had a lot of room on the right side so it worked out well

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:56pm PDT

we lost a little of it horizontally because of the dimensions. but not much.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:54pm PDT

the formatted spread is currently uploading to the dropbox, BTW.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:54pm PDT

holy shit. i just now realized you colored everything except for the spread. you're a beast!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 6:24pm PDT

i'm emailing jason now to find out about the double page spread formatting

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 6:24pm PDT

anyway, i'm back home now. might not get done much today but i'll be back at it hardcore tomorrow.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 6:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

it's for the Yaoi convention. this is the closest I could get to yaoi

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

Coool!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

it's gonna be a tiny foldout book

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

alssooo

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

I'll get caught up with all of that on Monday when I'm home. It's hard to really dig into that right now.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

cool! I like doing one-shots

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Ohhhh shit nice!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Oh, also, Dave is interested in working with you on something. In particular he has a one-shot type of thing in mind. He said he'll get in touch with you about it at some point.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

geez

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

not*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

nor 32

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

#2

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

ehmmm I think #1 32 and the TPB covers are done

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

How's the cover stuff going?

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Understood.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

hahaha I understand my awesome is more to the overall sentiment

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

But hopefully it's for real.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

I'm not taking him 100% percent at that because ya know its Action Lab...

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

awesome!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Great! I'll definitely flat more this week and then straight into letters. Dave Dwonch was at the con, and he said that Jason talked to the team about getting Holy F*cked #1 onto the schedule ASAP and everyone seemed down with that. He actually said "so Holy F*cked is going into the solicitation cycle next month?" or something else basically like that when I first saw him.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 19, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

working on page 7 now

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 18, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

aaaand thats about it for today.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 18, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

ehm the podacst we had to read a thing for... what is it called?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 18, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 18, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 18, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

thanks and no I don't think you need to reply

Nick MarinoFriday, April 17, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

Do you need me to reply to any of the new emails?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 17, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

Everything is looking fucking great!!!!!! Im glad the flats help. I wish I had more for you. I can do more next week when I get home.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 17, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

alright, i'm off to san francisco / san jose. gonna go rep Holy F*ck at Big Wow! ComicFest, the silliest named convention of all-time

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 17, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 17, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, April 17, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

yeah, it's true. ugh. humans. i hate em!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 17, 2015 at 2:47am PDT

but allot of people seem to be like that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 17, 2015 at 2:47am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 3:57pm PDT

VENTING: Jason has this way of writing emails that makes me feel like he doesn't really read everything we send him and he doesn't really know our story that well. So then I write these replies that're kind of defensive... I don't want to do that but there's something about his wording that annoys me!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

YES THAT'S IT!!!!! That looks fantastic. I think you've got it.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

okay this will probably be it! I'll work on it tomorrow! hope I have green light on the tarde cover in the mornin

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

and then some shading

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

maybe something like this

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

mybe

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but yeah anyway if moses was just a little purplry, i think he might fit really well with the motif to make this vibe like that cap page. but i also could be soooo wrong about that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

maybe I'm still not sure what I want :P

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

i likey!!!!!!!! i'm doing a shit job of being specific today. i should have said "the same shade of blue or purple" ya know for the monochromatic thing. but this is super cool too!!!!!!!!! i'm 50/50 on the shading. i sorta miss it but i also love these bold flat colors. would it be more fun to color the issue without the shading and then maybe reintroduce it for the hospital?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

oh wow!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

oh wow. it's practically your Satan! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6zH4DWkp4I

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

ooooo that looks pretty fucking sweet! also, another idea... what if everything is a shade of blue or purple EXCEPT for the background color on the first panel and the sound effect in the third panel?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

but that might just be the scann..

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it seems to me that the darker a colors gets on that cap page, the more saturated it is. the lighter a color is, the less saturated it is. do you see it like that too?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

my last observation...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

it's a huge inspiration for me

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

but i see a connection between the excitement of your lines and the excitement of these lines

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

also, i feel like your characters have much more personality and so they don't blend in with the background as much as these cap characters

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

mhh

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

but maybe it would need to be a bit more surreal?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

i think you could totally pull off a monochrome thing with some bright spot colors with your lines

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

sort of has this thematic thing going on

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

oh well

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

plus... red, white, and blue... ya know, captain america

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

it's probably my linework

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

everything is swoopier and busier

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

but my gut says that style of coloring is probably more suited to that style of linework

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

yeah I want it to kinda look like that

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

well i'm no expert on this kind of stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

ohhhhhh i see what you're going for

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I have a 'vision' but I can't get it right

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

OHHHHHHHH i really like the one you sent with the pink chest circle!!! i was a dumbass though and forgot to say i only meant that he should have a pink circle in the silhouette panel. SORRRY!!!! i like his normal blue circle in the other ones. and of course you know i'm down with whatever you want to do.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

and maybe moses's chest circle should be another shade of pink?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

but i think maybe it would pop more if herc was a bit more flesh toned? that's just a guess.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

I LOOOOOVE the shading!!!! the color choices are good.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

yeah it's weird probably a typo

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

i dunno why people write "Holy F*uck" though... i've never seen that done before. ever. i thought the idea is to substitute the letter

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

ahh lemme look it up

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

I'm just reading Jason's email

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

Well then... I guess our next priority should be the TPB cover!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Oh, and that Operation Comic Book hahahahaha.... yeeeaaah it's hard to finish it. But I like the art!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

As for tunes? I don't know what you like! Nowadays I'm into jazz and funk and a little EDM so if you like those genres then maybe I can help!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

So awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

I love it. Amazing execution on these pages. You took it to an almost Looney Tunes place and I fucking can't get enough!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I'm listening to Dispatch right now but I feel guilty about them being white

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

okay hit me with some good music

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

yep, i like that.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

clarity's mah jam

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

i've worked with some collaborators where they'll fuck up paneling or they'll draw something that's really confusing, but the great thing about you is that you're really into clarity and simplicity, so i think that makes pretty much all of your stuff work.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

I might have to figure out how to draw it but I don't have to figure out what to draw

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

oh I understand it's also think power

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

to me, either it comes out awesome or super-awesome.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

and the worst case is that the result is just so-so. but with you drawing it, i never worry about that :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

but honestly, writing a really insane visual moment feels about the same to me as a tricky dialogue joke that needs specific pacing... i'm never 100% sure if it'll work, but i figure it's worth a shot. cause if we nail it, then we REALLY nail it!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

yeah there were times in that script where i was like "ehhhhh this doesn't even make sense but let's fucking see what happens. it's gonna be intense!"

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

hahahahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

annddd im done for the day :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

you get to write :"By clutching Moses's leg and swinging him around in circles above his head, Hercules has created a mini tornado!"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

but what in particular makes you say that? cuz the shit is so crazy?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

i love writing all of it!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

you must love being a writer for sequences like this

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

they don't consider a lot of shit

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

i think most people are just like "this seems cool, i should do this"

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

so there's that

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

yeah but you're smarter than everyone else i know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

haha you might be

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

when I was 11 and wanted to make my own comics company I taught allot about names fitting on corners

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i wonder if i'm the first person to subscribe to submit my email

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

good point

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

if you print it to small it just looks weird

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

OH YEAH

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

the details

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

yes buttt

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

instead of a fucking circle

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

aftershock is at least a square

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

it's ridiculous how much space that shitty logo takes up

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

number one example of that

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

hahaha Danger Zone

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

I like that no one seems to conissider how a company logo might look on a book

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

ha allright

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

i just tried it

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

that wasn't even included in the press release

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

http://aftershockcomics.com/

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i lied

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

and right now they have nothing over ActionLab

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

they don't even have a website yet, though, so i imagine they're only interested in creators that they already know.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

yeah, they would!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

I guess a publisher like that might dig superserious

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

the relaunch, that is

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

reminds me a bit of Valiant

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

they seem serious and superhero focused

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

but still interesting

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

not for us, i don't think

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Holy F*ck was worse for me

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

for ons

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

hahaha fair point

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

the chances of jason letting us solicit the book before the fourth issue is done is low anyway haha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

no biggie

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

okay well i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

well, i'm gonna turn the wifi off on my comp and do some flats

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:37pm PDT

i'm sure that didn't help! i'm not in a bad mood or anything... just being honest

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

hahaha it's cool man. its the fair

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

hahaha i'm so bitchy tonight! i dunno why.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

action lab has a sweet deal going for the guys who're on staff. i wonder what pay / perks they get

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

yep. but this will be one of the "expenses" that comes out of our profits. i can almost guarantee it!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

but I went to school for it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

probably

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

s probably why the company pays him

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

but at the same time, i think dave has to do them because that'

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

yeah i wish they'd ask us to do the ads instead

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

yeah the comixology thing should be fixed :3

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

oof that add is painfull

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

Kevin was cool about the comixology thing when i asked him again today. he emailed them about it too so hopefully we can get that fixed soon.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

forwarded you a house ad Dave made for us. it looks like shit but whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

hahahaha It's cool I agree

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

venting, i guess. hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

not complaining here... i'm cool with how it worked out... i just trying to be pragmatic about it... i don't see a point in spending money on variants that won't even get an awesome push

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

so it's not like they'll even take advantage of it if i score us some kickass variants

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

probably

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

i mean, aaron's cover was the fucking bomb but because of their decision to make our variants the Jesus/Satan theme, it got relegated to an NYCC exclusive. cool to have but it probably would've been more useful on the first issue as an extra.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:27pm PDT

I still think variants are silly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

yeah oh well

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

it's not like Action Lab promoted them at all

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

ti get some press on them, i had to "leak" them to Bleeding Cool

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

oh yeah hers were super cool. but i feel like they didn't even try to capitalize on the joke around them and then they made us put that ridiculously obvious caption on them.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

hahaha I also loves kaylie's variants

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

at the end of the day, your variants were my favorites anyway

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

i guess lets see what jason suggests for a variant program and then we can go from there

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

yeah me too. it was fucking sick.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:23pm PDT

okidoki :)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:23pm PDT

also, i added an issue 3 folder to the holy f*cked section of the dropbox. i'm uploading the print-size cmyk versions of the pages now. as i flat, i'll replace them.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:23pm PDT

hard to say. I loved Aaron's NYCC cover

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:22pm PDT

not sure if it's worth it.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:21pm PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 10:53pm PDT

welll lets not do it then :)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 5:23pm PDT

i've been rethinking the celebrity variant covers thing.... no reason other than i think it might get crazy expensive....

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

oh god that was pointless. the ride was nice, though.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

have a fun time! It doesn't really matter were you start!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

i'm heading out to this zine fair soon, but i'll flat tonight. what page would you like me to start with?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

yuppers

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

yeah that would be fun if it works out

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

and cool about the might mouse thingy :)

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

yeah I turned him blue so the purple stuff no longer applied.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

kevin said he'll pass the mighty mouse idea along to Bryan

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

NICE!!! I love the Papa Smurf joke in the script too. Awesome stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

#4

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

how many issues do you want of Holy F*ck

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

most tools also have anti-aliasing as an option

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

as for the colors, i'll just start using the pencil tool.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

THESE PAGES ARE EXQUISITE!!!! I love everything about them. So hardcore and hilarious. Definitely my favorite two yet. This third issue is sick.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

it's just easier to change colors when there is no anti-alias

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

yeah no prob man. fuck anti alias!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:43am PDT

also when you flay could you try to do it without anti-alias? it's no big deal if you can't. would you be cool of you could

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:42am PDT

jerks fair

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:42am PDT

cool have fun at the ferks fair!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

i'll start flatting tomorrow. also, there's a zine fair here in long beach. the zine fair that rejected my table request. jerks.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

letters. finally. fucking. done.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

It looks so good too!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

it's easier to do on paper than digital

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

these days I try to pack my pages full whenever I draw on paper

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

been doing it over the last 3 days because it's nice to finish something within a short time for a change :3

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

really excellent pacing. so much good stuff packed into those three pages.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

thanks :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

it's fantastic

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

hahaha floppy guys

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

LOVE IT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

also, i just noticed this issue has black borders. nice.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

awesome cartoony action!! FUCK YEAH!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

you just took it to the next level with these pages!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

holy shit dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 5:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 3:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 3:52pm PDT

good idea. i'll let you know what happens.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 3:08pm PDT

Tell him that mighty mouse is actually something we both really like

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 3:08pm PDT

maybe if you ask seriously?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 3:07pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 2:39pm PDT

it's one of those things i'm sure i could ask Kevin about for Action Lab... it's not like anyone's doing anything with the character. i just don't know how serious they'd take us if i asked!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

CBS seems to have some connections to DC but nothing exclusive as far is I can tell

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

yes I have seen it and I loved it

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

He's owned by CBS, who don't have any comic book publishing connections, to the best of my knowledge. Did you ever watch the 80s Mighty Mouse that John K worked on? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwaguELUuc

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

:)

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

yes we would!!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

Dude, that's what we should do... MIGHTY MOUSE! We'd kill on that.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

Oh, but I did submit next week's covers to this thing they do on the Comics Should Be Good blog called the homage streak. And in the process, I found this crazy hi-res version of the Mighty Mouse #5 cover

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

Still working

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

Obviously I didn't finish the letters.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

cooooooooooooooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 10, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

1 works :)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

A slightly tweaked version of #1

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

aight! good stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

yeah. two G-Man miniseries by Giarrusso, The Pro by Ennis and Amanda Conner, a bunch of 90s Quantum & Woody, two issues of Freelancers (i can always get the rest), Nutmeg from Action Lab (it's pretty cool), and the first volume of Scott Pilgrim in color.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

cool cool do you have funny stuff in there?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

just an FYI

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

i "archived" a lot of my purchases recently

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

also, you're welcome to go through my comixology account and pick out any books that're already on there.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

cool I'll take a look tomorrow

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

i figure we should probably pick it soon. 1. cause im a slow reader and 2. i dunno, just to be nice to the other dudes

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

April 29

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

i think you should pick whatever we read for that show.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

I flipped through a few issues and I was totally blown away. I was gonna suggest it for our one reading podcast but then I read the sample pages and they're BOOOORING

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

I'm not sure if I've seen it looks cool!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

the third preview page on this issue is sick too! https://www.comixology.com/Wilds-End-1/digital-comic/140791

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

have you seen this guy's art yet? https://www.comixology.com/Wilds-End-2/digital-comic/157144

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

thank you so much man!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

The layouts for these pages are incredible and I fucking love the linework and SFX. These might be my fave pages so far.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

I like how the New Apostles are almost more monsters than superheroes, really.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

Her awesome soulless eyes. Beady and blank with the expressionless mouth. SHE'S SO FUCKING COOL AND WEIRD!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

I fucking love your Mother 2Resa design so much. SO MUCH.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:46am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 9, 2015 at 2:19am PDT

is cool man! don't worry stuff will get done when it will get done!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:31pm PDT

also, i forgot... we planned to email jason!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

i didn't finish the lettering. hopefully tomorrow!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 4:11pm PDT

okay, so i finally heard back from Kevin about the collected edition... apparently he gave them our file as is so i need to contact ComiXology support and see if i can work things out with them.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 2:40pm PDT

hahahaha! i gotcha. well i still never heard anything back from jason about it.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

it had a moon in the anme

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

I'm bad with names I mean Full Moon Features

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

haven't put out a new book in a while

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

i think they're done

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

under the right circumstances

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

but yeah all if this together makes that doing a moonstoneproduction(right?) based book might be fun to do

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

hah!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

I'm also trying to make more use of my tendency to draw things my grandparents find ugly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

I haven't read many

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

i think horror comics pacing can be pretty great. though i can't think of many horror comics i've really enjoyed

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

i follow you.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

I'm not a horror buff or anything like that I just like the artistic stuff you can do with it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

'bout the horror stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

wonderful

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

hahaha thats also good

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

"ugh. it's gonna take forever to fix this. couldn't he have just used the door?"

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

okay i likey

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

1 till 3 and 8 will probably be colored more like #2

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

yeah it looks good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

hahaha FAP!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

and I decided I might want to do it a bit like that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

I saw this:

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

yeah, you're really good at stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

it will be

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

and as long as its still night by the end of #4, everything works fine

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

i think the nighttime setting will make for lots of cool moments

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

yeah that works for me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

I figured I was to lazy to color 4 issues like #1

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

or dinner is fine also

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

yeah that works!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Guess Who's Coming To Supper?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

we should maybe change the name of the issue, then

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

k cool. i think my script had some dumb idea about the sun setting during the fight. too complicated.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

are you going to color issue #3 at night?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

the outdoor scene is at night

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

oh i just realized something...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

"He was so good at cunnilingus "

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

"sigh. another dinner party ruined."

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

that would work

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

not that line exactly

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

"well that explains a lot. he was way too hunky to be a human."

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

or maybe even something semi-complimentary or sexual

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

ehmm yes but no

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

"Huh. It seemed like he really enjoyed the beef..." "MIERDA!"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

like?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

or what if it's something totally unreleated?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

or just "Yes...... [curse]"

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

ohhh okay good thinking

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

like "Yup that [curseword] happend."

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

she could still reply with that or with cursing as part of that

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

which of course, i can change...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

right now, i have her cursing in spanish

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

re going with that

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i like where you'

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

maybe more like "so your boyfriend...?" "yup"

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

i want to communicate Satan's surprise, but in a really calm way.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

it's not bad... but it feels too obvious when i put it on the page.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

I think your boyfriend was secretly Hercules and he just kidnapped Jesus.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

i need help rewriting this line:

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

that style is sooo great!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

he drew smaller than usual :)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

nah I just know I would like to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

the hellboy animated books are also tiny so he might have drawn them small.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

do you have a horror project you've started developing?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

i just swung by his website. i see what you mean.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

usually he way more disney

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

it's like bruce timm meets mike mignola. very cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

But I'd like to do some horror thing so I can get closer to this type of thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

but he NEVER draws like that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Rick Lacy

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

who did the art?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

ooooooooooo that's really good!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

It's super inspirational to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

there are these lazy hellboy comics to promote the animated movies they did

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

yeah it's worth a shot

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

I don't imagine it would ever be in color but why not try something out anyways?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

a color test for my brothers comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

NICE! its fucking great. what is it?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

hahaha cool!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

yay thank you!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

then i can start flatting

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

i'm gonna try and finish lettering today

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

thanks :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

well i think they're fantastic. i really dig the shot of herc standing across from the four new apostles. really cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

I feel a bit meh about them, but I'm trying to do 2-3 pages a day

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

speeeed lines! the herc and moses page is amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

they're so good :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

I FUCKING LOVE THESE PAGES, THOUGH!!! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

seriously!? that sucks :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

the Holy F*ck digital collected edition is a hot mess. there's a lot of duplicate content and it's not what i set them!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

toodles

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

yeah i gotta go buy groceries

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

allright then I have had enough of computers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

no problemo

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

no biggie if not, though

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

oh and include the showdown font just incase! if you can.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

who doesn't! and thannks

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

LOOOOOOVE EM!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

these pages fucking rock

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

ahhhh i love a good sound effect

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

booyyyaaa

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

still have to figure out the SFX

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

NIIIIICE

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

I'll have two mare pages inked soonish

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

coooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

I like doing it, thats all

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

cool. we should try that out. i like your color decisions more than mine.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I always want to color!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

but obviously that depends on if you WANT to color them haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

and one thing i thought might be cool was if you colored them

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

i had a lot of time riding the bus this weekend to and from wondercon, so i thought about this a lot...

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

ooooh yeah that could be cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

you could do old school colors with a texture

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

3. we actually make them look like black and white comic strips in a newspaper with some texturing underneath

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

2

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

2. flat colors under the black line art.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

1. black and white. nothing special done to the art.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i had a few ideas, actually.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i was thinking about color too...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

yeah I have no gags yet either

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

what 'bout color?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

i dont have any good gags in mind yet but i figure we can brainstorm up a bunch of them and pick the best

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

good point. agreed.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

I think they would fit better with the rest aswell

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

also, digital letters gives us a chance to improve the jokes together

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

i love hand lettering but i'm sloppy and i write big

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

yeah, i was thinking digital letters

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

just so either tighter or digital letters

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

yeah, I like it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

maybe even computer panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

but for F*ck Buddies, i'm thinking tighter panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

so it's got a Stick Cats kind of looseness to it

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

here's a short story i'm doing for my friend's anthology

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

not exactly

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

actually, i don't

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

here i have something kind of in the style

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

In a pretty loose style

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

YESS PLEASE

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

you said you wanted to draw it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

YESSSSSZZZZZ

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

I AM HAPPY TO HAVE INTRODUCED YOU TO THIS NEEEEEW WORLD

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

okay in that case

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

nope. never heard of Mini Marvels or Chris Giarrusso. ever

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

they were all over comics back in the day

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

you have, right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

EVER

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

that looks cool. never seen it before. ever

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

https://p.dreamwidth.org/780f8ba5fe56/i12.photobucket.com/albums/a233/Marvelgeek/Show%20LJ/MMFFDone.jpg

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

EVEN BETTER

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

yeah or like ehmm what were they called little marvels?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

what do you think would work well?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i was thinking very peanuts-esque but inappropriate. so they're these little chibi-ish kids doing mundane stuff around the neighborhood but cracking really foul jokes.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

I mean F*ck Buddies

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

anyways how are we going to approach Holy F*ckers?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

oh thats all I have. I have two synopises... synposy? synosez? but I want to do a gag thing that I could easily put online

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

tell me more! i love music comics.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

ohhhh well I should try to come up with a music based gag comic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

I guess ThreeDaysGrace also belongs in that group

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

not surprised :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

never heard of em!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

ehmmm I was listening to a band called hit the lights but I also like Anberlin and stuff like that I guess

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

at the same time, it so doesn't matter. like what you like!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

metal-core without the grunty parts

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

hmmm yeah that sounds rough. what bands?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

like the emo-y 2007 teen music. heavy metal/hardrock guitars and pretty voices

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

quite bad

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

how bad?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

I just discovered im into bad music

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

bye bye

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

dinner time bye

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

ehh I'll do it again

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

JERKS!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

actually, you just submit your art to this: https://www.facebook.com/BoomStudiosArtistSubmissions

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

probably have to get internet famous

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

I want to do some sweet boom variants buttttt don't know how

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

yehs!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

cool. well it gets good reviews so i'll take the praise!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

I don't know that much about GHA but I know enough :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

yeah you told me!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

i was super impressed with Boom's booth. really amazing books and cool staff. they're #1 on my list now!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

i only know the title of that book! hahaha. i'm very out of the loop. oh, did i remember to tell you that i gave our stuff to Boom editorial and Valiant editorial?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

I DO think our comic fits in with stuff like god hates astrounauts

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

it's really good!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

one of the more balanced and thoughtful reviews we've received.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

listening to it now!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

he loves your art!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

okay awesome!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

I figured no one will notice anyways

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

oh also, digital collected edition tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

hahaha thanks man

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:31am PDT

hahahahahaha the fact that it's just the same shot of him eating cake is making me lose my shit over here. i'm trying not to laugh because Stique is still asleep but it's fucking hard! bravo.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

looks what I dids

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 2:11am PDT

OMFG I forgot to put him in the enitire scene

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

whoopsie I might draw him in later :3

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

But where's Moses?!?!? ahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

OMG amazing pages. Maria and Satan especially! The facial expression on that one are dynamite!!!!!!!!!!!! And I love how the characters are just lil bit chibi on the group shot.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

k byeee

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:12am PDT

allright then I'm gonna do some cookin'

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

yesh :)

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:04am PDT

cuz you know everyone and their fucking brother is gonna pitch them come May

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:04am PDT

hopefully Oni will be there. they didn't go to WonderCon this year.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:04am PDT

i'll be at a another con in two weeks called Big Wow Comic Fest

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 8:04am PDT

yeah i hear yah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

I'd love to be published by Image as well, but BOOM and ONI excite me more

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

I wasn't either

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

ahhh cool

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

I also got the lowdown on Boom Box (Lumberjanes imprint) vs. BOOM! -- Boom Box is like tumblr / webcomic inspired takes on material that is good for teens and up. I was never totally clear on that from just the internet.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:47am PDT

Image i would love to work with. but then again it's not like they have much staff anyway. i think the fact that we mailed them a submission too should help.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

yeah I'm a bit iffy about Image aswell

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

I want to read LumberJanes badly

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

Image was kinda like IDW in the sense that it wasn't very easy to hang around their booth and talk to the employees.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

yeah after looking at all of their output, i feel the same way.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

cool cool cool. I love boom I think they are one of the best publishers out there right now. IDW is very meh

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

Also, here's a convention report for ya: I didn't hand out any pitches but then again I didn't necessarily expect to hand em out. I did learn a lot from the few panels I went to and talked to a TON of people. I gave #1-3 to editors at BOOM! and (of all places) Valiant. The BOOM! they asked me if I had anything to give them so that was cool. Also, the books that BOOM! is putting out right now are incredible. I was really impressed. IDW, nothing really. Their staff isn't as friendly or outgoing. The panel went well. I named dropped you multiple times AND told the audience you'd be at San Diego so they should really come meet you.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

ehmmm I'd like him to get everything rolling

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

happy you like it :)

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

Okay, so this week... what exactly am I emailing Jason about?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 6, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

LOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!!!!! It's so cool, like a fucking Looney Tunes cartoon.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 5, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

my sister is 4 and he is right and actually a nice guy

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

even though he's probably right

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 8:27am PDT

and that godfather can SUCK IT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 8:27am PDT

WHOA. your sister must be very young

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

butttt I have been told by the "Godfather of dutch children comics" that some people just shouldn't write children stuff :3

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

in that case I wish I could do YA stuff one of my things is that one day I'd like to make a comic for my sister that she could read when she is 8

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

very

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

confusing words

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

yah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

it's it supposed to mean YoungAdult?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

i dunno much about YA

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

i guess. i dunno! they said YA and then they said 9-12 yrs old

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

are 10year old YA now?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

I think they're too literary for us (their word used during the panel). But with that said, they're looking for YA stuff big time right now. So if we can turn One Night Stand into a a story for 10-year-olds, then we're in!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

Happy you like the cover, the emotional thing is what I was going for. I have never been to a panel so I don't know what mostly is. WonderCon isn't over so plenty time to give the things to the people. Top Shelf is a bit confusing but they might be slightly to artsy for us. I'm not to surprised about the Fantagraphics thing.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

I went to a pitching panel which should help us if we need to do a second round of ONS pitches. I went to a Top Shelf panel. We're definitely wrong for them, at least... I think so. But who knows! Oh, I also got an email rejection from Fantagraphics. Kind of an annoying condescending form letter but whatever.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

So WonderCon yesterday was alright. I didn't hand out a single copy of Holy F*ck though! I feel like I mostly went to panels... but I only went to three of them, so I dunno how "mostly" that is.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

FUCK YEAH!!!! I think the 3rd one is my favorite, mostly because it does the same great thing that the first one does... it's like an emotional representation of the conflict instead of a literal representation of the events.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

I'm doing some #2 cover sketches

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

Jamie, our studious Holy F*ck student!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

were talking about the wallpaper right?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

Jamie Adam ?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

who was it?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

it seemed silly but cute that someone would want that

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

i saw it was there but didn't read it yet. s'good idea. i can find some awesome panels to use next week

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

did you see the facebook message about the phone wallpaper?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

for being so fucking awesome

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

thank YOU

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

i love what i'm seeing!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

the Moses getting his powers story is so rad! and the fight is fucking awesome! it's equal parts funny and badass. i think you did an amazing job here.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

"Suck, snort, fart"? Maybe the best sound effects sequence in comics EVER

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

I FUCKING LOVE THESE PAGES. PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 4:43am PDT

two days of work I don't quite like the last 5 pages butt it'll deal with it when I ink it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 4:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 3, 2015 at 2:18am PDT

cool! seems like a good plan :)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 7:26pm PDT

i'm going to their panels and might have a good opportunity to at least slip them some books

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 7:25pm PDT

so Boom, IDW, and Image will be at the convention. i printed out pitches with personalized cover letter for each of them. i don't necessarily expect to have a good opportunity to give them the pitches... but JUST in case.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

AWEESOMEEEEE

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 2, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

I got the issues! I like issue 3!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 11:14pm PDT

you don't have too

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:37pm PDT

it's too late to turn back now, though. i'm not going to redo all of Holy F*cked's dialogue.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:36pm PDT

ahhhhhhh shit Piekos just updated the Holy F*ck dialogue font! https://www.facebook.com/blambot/photos/a.126073074080052.14495.106028492751177/902023039818381/

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

k nighty night

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

cool I'm gonna get some Z's

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

yep, i'm down. good plan.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

cool ehm lets think about thats and mail then on monday?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

so we can be persuasive

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

but because i think it helps to go in knowing what we want

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

not because we need it right away

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

we also need to figure out what kind of backmatter we want

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

just so you know

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

i think that's good. i'll be at WonderCon all weekend so i won't be checking email much from fri-sun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

ehm I should be done with the thumbs done on saturday so we could get the conversation started 'round then

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

including whatever variant plan they want us to have

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

pretty soon

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

i think that means we need to get jason in on the cover decisions for #1

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

yeah that would be awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

solicitation

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

okay, so when #3 is complete let's see if we can get them to put #1 into the solitication cycle

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

yeah, when you say it that way i have a better idea of what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

yeah I know thats why I want them to get started on that shit while I'm working on #4

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

we could have had it in previews a month before we did

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

we were done with the book LONG before its deadline but because Jason had it on the schedule, he basically held it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

cool i'd like that

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

my only concern about that is what happened to us with Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

probably. i think they're getting ready to announce the rest of their 2015 books soon.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

another thing do you think we could get the actionlab guys to pin down a date for Holy F*cked #1 after I finished #3?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

really looking forward to it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

hahaha yeah that fart page is just a winner of an idea

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

want to draw the fart page but have to do client work :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

I just have to say it me not you in a 100 different ways(for myself) when it comes to stuff like this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

it's no problem at all! i'm glad to make it better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

feel a bit dickish because it such a small thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

sure. no prob bob!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

I like what you did and it's super close to what I would like it to be

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

a little bit more refined

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

which isn't even a word anyway

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

flowy

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

okay, so maybe make the boxes sharper and the tails a bit more flowly on mine?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

what you had was actually pretty close

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

lemme me a photo

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

i'm down for anything.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I had an idea for the lettering on the holy spirit page... It's fine the way it is but I taught it might look cooler with a bit more of a french comics look

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

byes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

talk to ya latur

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

dinner time

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

i bet, not u bet

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

i doubt we'll win anything but u bet we'll pop up here and there

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

there aren't that many books like ours. most stuff is action of sci-fi first with a little humor.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

never even crossed my mind

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

but maybe next year we might get nominated for some humor categories!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

speaking of which, we're not eligible for any of this year's awards, i think.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

I know I will

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

when we win the Eisner for best fart joke i think it's safe to say that we'll look back at this moment and truly know that we did the right thing.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

fartjokes <3

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

yay love it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

I added just a wee bit of banter. I hope you likey.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

DONE

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

the suprise is in the presentation anyways

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

pfooo you can update it

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

i dig it. would you like me to update the script or would you rather surprise me?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

YEAH! that's cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

like he's on the floor on page 16 we don't need to see him get up

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

thats cool but I think we can do all of that on page 17 and maybe not have the moses panel

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

If you dig that, I'll update the script with it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

Page 18 - Panel 1: Herc rips a massive fart that's actually a cloud of the Holy Spirit's now decimated form.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Page 17 - Panel 1: Holy Spirit swirls around Herc. Panel 2: Herc begins to breathe in. Panel 3: Herc completely sucks in the Holy Spirit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Yeah dude you know I'm fine with whatever you want to do. I like the breathing him in and farting thing. How about this:

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

I might just skip page 17 orrrrrr I can have Herc breath him in and then fart

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

I like your work ethic. Also, I like your work.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

I'd like to do 1 issue every 5 weeks or so(that's what I have been doing for the first too)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

hahah it's cool man

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

Err sentence structure, I mean. Kinda the same as grammar, I guess.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

My grammar in that last one is a nightmare. Sorry.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Whatever you prefer to do is fine with me regarding backgrounds and time. I don't think we're in any rush. But I'm cool with whatever schedule you'd like to stick to!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Right. I had to go look that one up. It's a bit insane. HAHAHA!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Oh and 17?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Maybe it should say "android thunder punch" now instead since we got rid of her fleshy parts?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

And the fucking 2resa page rocks!!! Great angle choices again. So much fun.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

And yeah, Pope dying = the best. So good.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

Herc eating the staff thing is fucking incredible too!!!! I love the storytelling on that one.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

amazing foreground / background on the Secret Pope panel with the staff! that's just such a killer page.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

great angles on the page when Moses goes to attack.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

I love all of these layouts. So fucking kickass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

I love the face melting!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

o-m-g page 17

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 6:59am PDT

it's all quite rough because I don't feel like I know what i'm doing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 6:57am PDT

this issue is either going to have like no backgrounds or take me a bit more than the other issues

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 6:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

thanks man :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

And Jesus passing out is my favorite moment of all from the pages! Amazing pacing, the way you took it from the heavy action to the tiny, quiet joke. It works so well

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

The crash page is kickass! Great title font too.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Maria's expressions are amazing in the car page.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

The Secret Pope looks cool as shit when he's communicating with the Holy Spirit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

I love the expressionless face of Mother 2resa as she disarms the bombs.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

Every pages is packed with fantasticness.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

FUUUUUUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 31, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:14pm PDT

nice. yeah, it's good a nice free flow to it.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:13pm PDT

yesh I like that one I used it before

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:12pm PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:12pm PDT

i found a font that's 100% better

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:12pm PDT

i'm not actually gonna do it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:12pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 11:11pm PDT

fine with me!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

truthfully though... it's a little too bold and generally pretty rigid.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

there's something i love about the idea of fucking with people and using comic sans

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 9:57pm PDT

how mad would you be if i used comic sans for something?? :}

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 8:04pm PDT

http://www.smosh.com/smosh-pit/articles/artist-creates-incredibly-derpy-disney-gifs

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

satan's goop breaking is great too because the holy spirit is like "ewwww"

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

i love the panel of them just hanging out and being weird

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

page 3, panel 3... have 2resa project with the other hand so both lines of dialogue can be on one side of her and the projection can be on the other side.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

yup :) it worked best for the page. thanks man. tell me!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

i only have one suggestion for a possible tweak

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

these pages look t-riff!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

fucking love it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

YOU GAVE HER WHEEL FEEET!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 30, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

hahaha why not right

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

it's sooo lazy

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

hahaha that lettering is garbage! i love it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

yeah it's all the same for the story, i'm just thinking for balance... which pages might look better facing each other

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

I like how the lettering is shit

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/comicsalliance.com/files/2011/05/sincity02.jpg

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

thats cool with me, for the story it doen't matter but for the experience it might

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

i'm also thinking about mixing up the order of the pages at the end if you're okay with that

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

looks like they do really circular balloons with medium to long dagger tails

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 29, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

updated!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 28, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

i need to get the Secret Pope page from you again with one tiny correction... "introducing" has an extra T in it! conversely, you could just send me the corrected text you used in that page instead of resending me the whole page. THAAAANKS

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

it's a pretty great duck

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

guess I gotta make up a story for a duck now

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

"ughhhh you didn't invite vibe, did you?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

and all of DC's more modern latino characters can talk trash him

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

deep stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

ohhh meta

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

i mean, in the comic.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

also, this podcast. The Bleed, it's like a bookclub thing. so we discuss a book (not ours) that we've all read. WHAT SHOULD WE READ?!? i think it should be something really weird and cheesy.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

podcast scheduling

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

your daylight savings time is this weekend, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

I don't have a smartphone

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

it's worth considering. if only for texting, because my understanding is that getting wifi access in the san diego convention center is dicey.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

ah ok I could just but a prepaid card

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

maybe not. but if we're sharing a pass, we'll need to figure out some kind of system and meeting place, etc.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

is it necessary?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

i've been thinking... what should we do about a cellphone for you while you're here?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

meh

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

unless they sent me the wrong date! which is very possible.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

oh well

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

I should read

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

i just heard back from the guys who do a Bleeding Cool podcast called The Bleed. they're down to do a Holy F*ck episode! recording on April 29th. i asked them what time they record. hopefully you can make it!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

same I just acre about their money :)

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

as for Jeff Kline, yeah he seems like he's new to the creative side of comics. but his business knowledge seemed very sound to me so if they're interested in our book i'd definitely be cool with that.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

coolio

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:04am PDT

yeah i've got two decks here. we'll be all good. i'm gonna wait a month or so to see if we can get a ride there with someone, but if not i'll get us train tix.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

1. got a spare board?(not suer I can bring mine on a plane) 2. sounds....cozy. 3. yup he's totes new to the game

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:37pm PDT

like, he knows all about the entertainment business but he talks about making comics like someone who just learned how to write a comic book script.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:36pm PDT

maybe i'm just being a snob, but Jeff Kline of Darby Pop doesn't seem like he knows that much about making comics.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:28pm PDT

and we might have to share a key.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:27pm PDT

but that doesn't mean anything, really, except worst case scenario is that we might have to share a king bed.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:27pm PDT

however, they had to give me a "single" which means your name isn't on the reservation

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:26pm PDT

check in Thu 7/9, check out Sun 7/12

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:26pm PDT

it's the Doubletree Downtown San Diego

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

it's pretty close too so we can just walk or skateboard to the show. i skated last year and it was actually my favorite part of the whole thing, being able to bypass everyone walking around.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:23pm PDT

okay, we've got a hotel!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

cool. i'll listen. they would make sense for us in a way because it's the publisher i gave the least shit about out of all of them, similar to action lab

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

#72

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

yup there all tv-writers

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

Darby Pop is a very Hollywood-ish type of company

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

can't remember

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

the publisher did say they wanted to get into licenced comics

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

is it?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

by the writers of It's Always Sunny

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

I heard the publisher on... waynes comics I think

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:38pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

yeah that would be cool!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

what we need is MAD to start doing comic books! they'd sign us in a second

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

i mean, hey, new editorial team... new taste?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

vertigo is usually quite serious tough

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

Oni, Vertigo, ALE, Image, IDW

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

actually, seriously, i dunno what they want

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

yeah they want, i dunno...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

I don't think Vertigo has even done comedy

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

also, can you imagine DC publishign One Night Stand???!?!? AHHHHHAHAHAHA!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

i don't think i know their "new" editorial team

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

hahaha sure

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

soooooooo... it's a good thing we've only gotten one rejection so far, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

dunno I wish I could just decide one thing and stick with it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

guess so

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

well i mean when i say "your style has changed" i think more specifically what i mean to say is that you've purposely chosen certain different styles and gotten really good at them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

I think this is one of the first real me things

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

this was almost 5 years ago

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

so my earliest pixel art was made at 300 dpi by moving around 50x50 blocks. it was a nightmare.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

yeah I only figured that out like 1 year ago

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

my dumb ass didn't used to know about the "preserve hard edges" option in Photoshop when you're resizing an image

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

is that possible?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

Dave seems fin to work with

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i vaguely remember this

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

very cool

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

OHHHHHHHH

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

but maybe Bill is just doing one issue

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

"I have a one-shot coming up in the next year that I'd love for you to draw, and a kickstarter that might be cool with a variant cover from ya. What are your rates, Daniel?" -Dave Dwonch Dave Dwonch 12/11/14

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

he mentioned some stuff to me about taking forever on it and i saw Bill McCay posting some stuff about drawing the sequel

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i think that plan may have changed though

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i remember that

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

well Jason was interested in the Night of the Undead 80s thing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

oh the other dude was Jason

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

Dave and another dude both said they wanted me to draw an issue of something butttt I haven't heard anything in a while

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

what stuff is that? i forget.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

brb

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

I'm a lazy dickwad :3 I should probably bug them about the stuff they said they wanted me to draw but I'm to lazy

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

so i figure if i actually request them to send out press for us AND i write up sample versions of it myself AND make the PDFs too, maybe Jamal won't be such a grumpy butt

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

yea gotta find a nice way of working with them incase we might be stuck for a bit

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

but ya know why not work together if we can?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

i can always send out my own press release... not like i need them to do it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

so we'll see... i could hear from Jason today or in two months!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

it's a good line

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

maybe even use that line "Holy F*ck... the way god intended it!" as the headline

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

yeah that sounds smart

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

by send out, i mean have Action Lab send it out.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

i had an idea... send out review copies of the digital collected edition the week it's on ComiXology. that way we'll have reviews of the full miniseries posted around the time the final issue hits shops. also, it'll potentially give us some good advance reviews about a month before the TPB is for sale.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

their whole release thing is weird. i'm trying to be more proactive about it now , though.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

the issue #4 sales don't really matter all that much but it sucks for the people that bought the singels

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

yeah, well said.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

I think it's fucked up but not the end of the world

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

and 2. we can say "can't wait for next week's final issue in shops? read it now... the way god intended it!"

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

my feeling on it is 1. it's good because it gives us different weeks to promote them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

wtf

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

or care

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

he probably doesn't know that

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

haha 15th!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

but when does #4 come out?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

eh okay

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

oh i've been meaning to tell you all morning... Kevin has the Holy F*ck collected edition scheduled for April 8

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

yeah I guess I didn't love the first one either. I liked it but didn't love it.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i tried the first volume. didn't love it at the time. but i'll try it again. that was like 2012 or something.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 26, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:44am PDT

it's cool anyways I like it

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:44am PDT

anyway, i know it's ugly but i think it'll be much better with the letters

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:43am PDT

well, i guess the shot of the room full of hackers would have been a bit complicated for this style

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:43am PDT

no, not too hard necessarily... but it didn't have any blood

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:40am PDT

was the original script to hard?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:40am PDT

hahaha I like it

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:39am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:39am PDT

alright, here she is, next to the revised script

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:31am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:21am PDT

oh, and the cross on her arm

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:19am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:17am PDT

k, in a min. i need to add more blood.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

nope. i'm not that fast!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

you lettered it allready?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

Do you want to see the 8-bit 2resa page with or without letters?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

SEXY!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:08am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 2:07am PDT

NICE!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:53am PDT

but I'm inking it right now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:51am PDT

yeah thats was my idea it kinda happens almost emotially

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:50am PDT

hahaha sweet! i love how it's completely NOT in our story at all. like, emotionally it sort of happens. but just barely.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

sounds like fun

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

i was inspired to try out an 8-bit type of thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

hahaha no it's fine

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

I doubt it's that bad but it's your call

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

hahaha okay

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

its too ghastly to show you

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

i know

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

there is no picture

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 11:09pm PDT

it's hideous but it just might work...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 11:09pm PDT

so i started doing this thing...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

gotta go

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

thanks man

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:16pm PDT

i think you're on the right track. just trust your gut. you're a fucking awesome artist and you're gonna kill it, whatever design you choose.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

yea might make a sketchy sketch tomorrow. i'll try to make a desicion tomorrow

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

hahaha that's a cool idea!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

but with jezus as deadpool and herc as the gozilla

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

especially if it still says Deadpool at the top

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

it'll sell like crazy

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

GREAT IDEA!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

hahaha a deadpool cover?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

for a bit I was considering

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

so i think that works out perfectly

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

#3 we have the new apostles and #4 we have the hail mary fight

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

image from the issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

it's the most ditinctive

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

#1 needs a jezus doing something cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

i like your gut instinct to go with jesus skateboarding for #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

because i think that makes for such a great iconic image... preggers satan

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

yeah, probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

i dunno... maybe the pregnancy is better on the second issue?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

I get that

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

Holy F*cked #1, i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

- jesus skating with the basketball

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

- herc freaking out

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

- pregnancy announcement

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:09pm PDT

my favorite moments for an HF cover:

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 3:09pm PDT

yeah agreed.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

the problem with the HolyF*cked #1 cover is partialt that not all that much happens and it's #1. Holy F*ck #1 was also hard

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

I will combine the teaser image with the HolyF*ck TPB cover... kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

yeah no problemo TPB is easy

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

oh, also, i dunno if you saw it in that handbook but they want us to have the TPB cover done REAAAALY early. So like probably as soon as you're done drawing ish 4

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:55pm PDT

it will be!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

I know I know I just want it to be more fun and stuff I want it to be funny and shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:52pm PDT

to me, i think the most important thing is that we really like what we're putting out there. FUCK EVERYONE ELSE! if it's a cover design you really love, you're gonna draw it better that way

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

blegh selfconfidence

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Well, at least the mockup is here on Facebook

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

I think fuck what will or won't sell... you should just do the designs that excite you the most.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

haha I didn't safe that one :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

Really? I think the first one is great!!! I really love the one from yesterday too.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

I don't know I guess I like the first one best but It wont sell

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:42pm PDT

1. is fun an playfull 2. it's just crazy action 3. I like it but people might think it boring 4. almost like the variant of HolyF*ck #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Also, I'm very much in support of this "something that's not even in the comic book" thing for the cover. Especially if we put that on the cover, like "Note: This scene does NOT occur in Holy F*cked." That would also be a cool variant theme... Unrelated Variants!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

What's your favorite right now?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

I'm not as crazy about 5. I think the composition is great. It's just soooo serious!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

I like 3 and 4. In particular, I think the stained glass idea is fucking amazing AND would make for a kickass variant theme, like if every issue had one stained glass variant.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

I would be more than happy with both of those.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

As for 1, I think the basketball would be fine but the heads make it really dynamic so it doesn't need it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

I can't tell exactly what's happening in the background on 2. But like before, I'm all about him holding the basketball while he's on the skateboard. Mostly because it adds a bit of a "WTF factor" to the image. What do you think about that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

I think 1 and 2 are VERRRRY fun!!! I really like both of them, especially the color schemes.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

WHOA I MISSED SO MUCH STUFF!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

jezus vs nazivampires

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

I was thinking I might just draw a cool scene that is not in the book

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

none of them are fun enough tough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

shady-ness

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

but it makes total sense I just don't understand why they aren't clear about that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

just kidding

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

it makes sense but you are still paranoid :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

maybe i'm just being paranoid. i dunno. but that would explain a lot of things, like why they have weeks with no releases and then weeks with lots of releases

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

it probably has nothing to do with the printing or the date we send the files over and EVERYTHING to do with the shipping from the printers, based upon when ALE schedules that shipping

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

so, for example, our book might be done BUT if it's the only book coming out that week, i bet they won't ship it until they have a certain amount of other books to ship it with.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

i think Action Lab groups their shipments. i bet that's what fucks up the release dates

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

dude. you know what i just realized?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Previews says Holy F*ck #4 will be out on April 15th.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

ta-ta

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

yeah a 3 issue dealy with one of their properties would rock!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

talk later

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

I'm gonna have dinner

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

also you wouldn't care and get stressed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

I would just need colouring help and the guts to do rough inking

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

I could do like a 3 issue series of any of their properties

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

yes I did

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

i feel like maybe you were the one who reminded me that DeCoteau did Puppet Master 3

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

my favorite Full Moon thing is the Gingerdead Man series. killer pastry puppets.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

he also did three puppet master films

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

YESSSSSSSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

http://fullmoonstreaming.com/movie/voodoo-academy-movie

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

yeah, well said.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

I know they are a pain in the ass buttt at least we have a place to grow and to put our shit out

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

they'll definitely take One Night Stand if no one else does

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

yeahhhhhh... ugh those guys

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

thats why I asked about what actionlab might publish

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

but i share your ambition. i just dunno what to do next!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

we probably just need to wait

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

i do not know

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

also, i wonder if we just need to wait. i mean, we're only on our first professional American comic book.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

but i dunno where to start! and i wonder if it's kinda inappropriate to do that.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

i'm totally comfortable emailing editors and all that shit... just doing "cold calls" or whatever other phrase they use for that.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

they soft

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

mhhh I never really liked to party and I only like kissing female asses

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

oh, but then there's the way Kelly Thompson sold out, by kissing ass online for years and inviting people on her podcast

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

i don't like to party anymore and i hate kissing ass

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

i think people sell out by schmoozing at parties and kissing ass

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

but in true Jason fashion, he just never replied

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

i thought maybe he would be like "wanna pitch BLANK?"

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

Jason sent me this weird email yesterday asking me what i thought about Full Moon's movies (the company that makes Puppet Master, among other b-movies).

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

hahaha I was afraid of that :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

i feel like all of our ideas are only things that Action Lab would publish. HAHAHA!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

do we have anything on our ideas list that only ActionLab would publish?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

how do other people sell out?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

guess you have to talk to people at parties or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

editors are like unfazed. and the people working the tables at these cons are disinterested interns and assitants

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

difficult

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

i feel like creators are way more receptive. they're appreciative and they love the title.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

like, i know i can give them our book and say we'd like to pitch. but i wonder if that's even gonna make a difference

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

I don't know either! I want to be a ho but wouldn't know how

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

travelin'

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Boom should be at WonderCon, same for Oni. IDW too. maybe even Dark Horse. but i dunno exactly what to do!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

next week, i've got WonderCon. then in two weeks, i'm going to Big Wow in San Jose (near San Francisco). so maybe i'll make some connections for us there.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

yeah I think thats would be the plan

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

i think we just gotta network our asses off at Dan Diego

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

when i first saw Weird Man today, i remembered Boom does an Uncle Grandpa comic book. and i thought "Daniel and I would KILL on a weird man book" (he basically just creeps out criminals until they give up). but then i was like "wait... i don't know anyone at Boom. and the people i know who know people at Boom aren't gonna hook me up."

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

i wanna do a ton of pitching too. i dunno exactly where to start, though! i don't know that many peeps in the biz and the ones i do know aren't very generous with contacts.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

reeeeal special

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

make em feel special

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

like comic book special i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

but that's just the normal way i write

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

i wonder if they'll think i was trying to do something special with it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

spanx

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

haha nice handwriting

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

part of me wants to re-watch 25 years of the simpsons

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

part of me wants to do a crazy amount of pitching to see what sticks

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

at first i was gonna post that pic, but then i was like "nahhhh... just wait till we land a sweet publisher and surprise people"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

okidoki I'm just asking

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

ohh image

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

More pitching? Possibly. But to be honest with you, I don't have many contacts yet.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

should we be pitching more stuff everywhere?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

cool beans :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

Weird Man is the best

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i like some of it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

anyway, Justique's been watching Uncle Grandpa

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

could've

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i could had it in within 2 mins if it'd actually loaded right

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

took the page forever to load

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

but i got in a room request within the first 3 mins

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

i mean, i dunno if we got a hotel

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

I have watched it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

I can ask for it I should try to mail them more often

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 8:26am PDT

i neeed a file for the new comic cover template

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 7:10am PDT

don't worry about how i'll draw it aslong as the face stays pretty much the same nobody will care

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 7:03am PDT

nah if anything simplify

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 6:53am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 6:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

her sari is so confusing!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

the designer and teh comic

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

i either like really straight forward shit that actually adds to the story

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

you know my taste in covers

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

no, they really dont

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

lik people draw cool things but almost no one makes full use of the opportunity

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

I think most comic covers are kinda shit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

I would read that why are we not doing that book

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

Teenage Mutant Ninja Jesus

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

Do you think maybe you should go back into the book and draw that third arm on him in every scene? I kinda need it in there.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

THAT'S IT!!! PERFECT!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

or maybe a cup of delicious, organic yogurt? i want to emphasize how important it is to have quality nutrition when you're playing sports

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

what if he's holding the basketball in the front hand and an imaginary double-sided dildo with the back hand?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

not all all what i was thinking but somehow 1000% better

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

i really like the logo placement, cutoff like that

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

just sayin

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

also, the letter F could always become a penis

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

sorta looks like he's already holding one

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

can we put a basketball in his hand?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Satan in bondage gear getting spanked by Jesus with a Holy F*cked paddle

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

"this is terrible!"

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

reading Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Hercules on the toilet

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

or riding a bowl

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

ripping some gnarly trick

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Jesus riding a halfpipe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

I wanted to do something with skate culture

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

or a basketball that says "Holy F*cked" on it instead of a Wilson

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

what if all of our covers were just fucking rad skateboard decks?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

WHOA

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

or just the bottom fo a skateboard that says Holy F*cked on it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

do a close up of Jesus's feet on the skateboard

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

people love that shit

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

it's like three squares that sort of look like jesus, satan, and maria

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

do a super iconic cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

nobody puts jezus in the corner

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

no logo or number on it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

we'll call it the busty variant

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

like an actual photo

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

one cover that's just a pair of breasts

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

tiny jesus in the corner

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

holy f*ck in the iddle

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

all hot pink

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

we should just do solid color covers with the title on it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

yeah no it's so true

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

they can be litarally anything

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

variants don't matter

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

remember this? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RH4k06P4RIKfnvdhFqKeBrfeqtVS0XexmfkjVdUTT5k/edit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

covers are hard

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

that's a lie

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

wait

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

no seriously, i dunno...

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

dumb

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

haha it's cool

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i changed the topic

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

sorry

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

OH RIGHT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

blegh covers

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

yeah, good call. if they cared enough, they'd already know.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

they'll find out themselfs

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

leave it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

i'm also getting tired of pointing out Jamal's mistakes to Jamal hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

should i even tell the Nutmeg writer that they fucked up his solicit? i don't want to worry him, but i kinda want him to know....

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

i fucking hope so

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

I guess the bigger profile publishers must be better at this stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

I don't know man. I hope they are

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hopefully we'll find out!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

i wonder if the other companies are really any better though

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

it's insane

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

he sends out the lowest rez, shit looking PDFs and then we barely get any reviews!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

the laziest

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

lazy

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

he fucked up their solicitation real bad too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

i feel bad for the Nutmeg creators

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

Jamal sends out the June 2015 press release and doesn't even both to write June in the email, just leaves May

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

that's a classic Action Lab moment

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

you'll get a kick out of this...

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

so i can have them for WonderCon

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

thank god i ordered them a month before i wanted them

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

hahaha yeah, right? i had to nag Scott for 2 weeks to get them shipped

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

:3 I didn't even dare to ask

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i should have them later this week

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

that was a hassle too! haha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

oh BTW our #2-3 comps finally shipped.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

i think so too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

mh yeah thats a problem.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

like for them it's okay to do this. no biggie.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

i think it's just the company mentality

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

and it still went out late

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

yeah that is my biggest issue with this

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

yeah, added a few pinups and covers but that was all still WAAAY early enough

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

i mean, our book was done since AUGUST

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

from my perspective, i don't think they realize how important it is to retailers and readers that you release stuff consistently.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

i dunno, man. they're such a mess with this stuff!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

lots of issues coming out back to back weeks and stuff like that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

how do they even do ongoing series?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

thing is, it's not just us... all of the Action Lab titles are shipping all fucked up right now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

but the weird shipping does affect reviews

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

I think they should have waited with the trade

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

our vocal readers don't seem to mind

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

because we should've had two issues out when the TPB was in Previews

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

i dunno man... i feel like the late shipping kinda screwed us with the TPB

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

yeah well good thing most readers don't care that much, right?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i'm gonna be SO on top of this for Holy F*cked

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

so whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i nagged him for weeks about it just to get it sent out on Feb 14

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i mean, i guess blame him because he could've sent it out earlier

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

jason told me back in Jan that all of our issues would take longer from nwo on

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

no blame, really.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

weird hit man who do we even blame?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

i guess the printer needed long on this one?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

i don't really get it. seems like plenty of time.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

and won't be out by April 1

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

but #4 was sent out on Feb 14

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

and came out on March 11

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

#3 was sent out on Jan 29

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

yeah, i know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

jezus fuck

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

which normally means they have no idea when it'll be out until then receive the books

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

OMFG

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

also, i don't think Holy F*ck #4 will be out on April 1. it's listed as TBD right now

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

im thinking about mentioning it to jason because he has a table at the show... might have an extra pass.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

we might have other options too

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

for real

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

yeah that would get me a pass

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

I'm trying to get inspired for Holy F*cked covers

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

hopefully this panel will happen at SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

hey, it's my first scheduled panel at a big comic con, though! so i;m psyched

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

not even a day... it was like 9am and she needed the names by midnight

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

i think it kinda was. she only gave me a day to find out.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

the woman putting it together was like "Niiccck! what Action Lab people will be at wondercon so we can do a panel?!?"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

it sounded like a last minute idea

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

hahahaha yeah! it wasn't pitched that way to me

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

I think it's funny that you are on the future of actionlab panel

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

hahahaha yes most definitely

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

yay I picked a thing and it might be good :)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

He's gonna read the book and shoot us a line to let us know if SKC is interested in doing a review, interview, or both.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

sweet

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Oh, I heard back from Rondal, the guy who runs Strange Kids Club. He digs the concept of Holy F*ck.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

yeah I used the coloring as kind of foreshadowing

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

I'll get lettering this week. After I finish up my page, that is.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

no problem thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

I especially like the way you went with thematic recurring colors for certain moments. The blue for Herc and Jesus alone, the pink and brown for when shit gets intense at the dinner, and the green for the boring parts.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

YESSSSS! Sorry for the delay. Looks good!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

did you have a chance to look at the colors yet?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

k, i'm gonna try and get us a san diego hotel tomorrow. check in thursday and check out sunday. it's gonna be fucking nuts!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

here we go again!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

and now? we wait.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:19am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:17am PDT

ffooooock yeah!!!! i'm gonna send out these pitches and then download them

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:17am PDT

just uploaded some pages to the box of droppings

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

GOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

exciting! and don't worry cyber terorism won't go anywhere. it lives in garages of old single moms

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

I didn't do as much sketching today as I'd hoped, but I did some.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

The pitch emails are all queued up to be sent out in the morning. And I already sent Alternative Comics an inquiry / request to send them our pitch. The materials for Dark Horse, Fantagraphics, and Image are also ready to get printed out and mailed in tomorrow.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

ya mmeeee too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

cool! hope he's into it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

also i'm about to send Holy F*ck to Chris Bachalo. i didn't ask him about the variants or anything, just said hi, i dig what he does, and i wanted to say thanks by sharing our story. and he's down.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

i can't wait to see all of it!!!!!!!!!!!! i need to get my 2resa on so we can fucking move on with the new pages. i'll do a bunch of sketching today and send you stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

but!!! once I am done with that almost the whole issue is done. then it's just the 2resa page and the complete apostales page

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

but I want to have the whole 6-7 page scene in flat color before I start rendering so I can make it look consistent

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

I got like 2 pages ready for rendering and 2 almost done flatting/color picking

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

with this stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

i was like world's slowest flatter

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

ugh coloring is going slowly today

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

OH YEAAAH purrrfect

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

I was thinking about one of kaylies covers

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

obviously the #2 cover would fit well

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

but yeah any of the covers would be fucking awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

mhh yeas i'll think about it thanks

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

so like maybe two pages at the begining of the first, two pages in the middle of #2, and 2 at the end of #3

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

and you would have draw a quick maria scene for each issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

them being recued / reborn is just an intro or whatever

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

and each character goes on an adventure in their issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

so like you're saying, each issue is a different character. she has a rescue team get Cosmic Moses from space, she has a tech team rebuild Mother 2resa, and the Holy Spirit is inside of a coccoon about to be reborn in the astral plane

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

okay so far so good

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

and her first order of business? reform the New Apostles!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

haha Pope

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

in the beginning of the first issue, there's a scene of Maria being sworn in as the new Secret Pop!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

each issue features a page or two drawn by you, which kinda ties things back into Holy F*ck/F*cked

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

i might have a good idea here...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

OMG showers are the best for thinking

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

okidoki

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

getting a shower brb

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

who i find the least interesting of the three anyway

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

i mean the only one who can't really be brought back to life in the same way is probably the secret pope

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

but i also thought the challenge of it might be fun

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

right? that was my main concern

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

it might get to confiluded

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

maybe that's too difficult?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

so like they all come back to life in their own ways

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

as for the New Apostles thing, i've already been thinking about how we could continue their story post-Holy F*cked...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

what's the release date?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

also, i love that you put yourself on the cover

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

YES!!!!! that cover fucking rocks

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

we'll see

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

but i wonder how much those sales will change with the print release of the book

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

yeah compared to the book sales

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

a lot lower than i expected!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

allright

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

#1 - 152 / #2 - 58 /

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

BTW here are our ComiXology sales from November-December:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

OH OKAY! Gotcha. Well, yeah, then we agree haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

not art for the book, just some of their best drawings they've already done

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

but when i say float i mean we're able to show him art from your friends and we really sell it good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

yeah thats what I meant with what I said

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

3. we email jason and float out the idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

2. we ask your friends to find out if they would be interest and when they'd be able to do it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

1. you and i come up with a basic concept and brief outline for it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

well i'm no expert but here's one way that i think it could work well:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

just thinking if we should pitch it first or if I should ask my friends first

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

Uneccecary but not ever kill. yes indeed and if he's up for it I can ask my friends if they are

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

i dunno for sure, but i bet Jason would be interested. especially if we time things right so that it could be announced on the day when Holy F*cked #2 comes out.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 7:20am PDT

as for the New Apostles mini idea, i think that would be an insane amount of fun to make.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 7:18am PDT

YEAAAAAAH! The pages look sick. I was wondering if we should make the background / gutters look like lined paper. Do you think that's worth doing? Maybe it's overkill.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 17, 2015 at 5:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

nah man I think this is a great idea

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 6:01pm PDT

BUUUTTTT that's just me arrogantly inserting myself into your idea. i'm curious about what your original vision is more than anything else.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 6:00pm PDT

because i see this as a GOLDEN opportunity to do a new Apostles miniseries!!! you and i could write it and they could draw it.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 5:59pm PDT

whoa yeah that would rock! are you thinking about writing it and having them draw it? or just coming up with an idea and having them write / draw their own issues?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

like a 3 issue mini 1 issue per person

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I've been thinking if there could be a story/idea or whatever that would work awesomely with my dutch friends drawing an issue

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

welcome. i hope it's good enough!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

yeah good job man thanks :)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

i'm sure they can fix it for you at the airport if it's actually a big deal

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

hahahaha the woman explained it to me like it might actually show up on the website as all one word but it should be two words on the ticket? it was confusing. i think that will probably be okay too.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

probably fine

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

Daniel Arrudamassa

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

it's better now

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

if you wanna log onto the site and check it out some time today that would be awesome!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

trying to get your name changed now

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

so real

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

eeeeel

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

thanks man! I made the colors dark becuase I want it to feel like shit got re

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

and the final panel of 18 has so much impact when it reverses to blue!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:53am PDT

i love your use of white for the phone and the cross. makes em pop real well.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

niiiiccceeee

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

I colored and uploaded two pages earlier today

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

cool thanks, i just wanted to get it off that dude's horns.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

up looks fine

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

cool awesome sweet! i'll get on that shit!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

so all of the pages in that folder are formatted for print, in CMYK, exact size, etc. pages 1-6 have some partial flats, except for page 2 which is completely flatted. i had to do the baby shower!!! hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

https://www.dropbox.com/home/Holy%20Fuck%20-%20creators/volume%20fucking%20two/issue%202

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

okay so here's the deal...

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 5:29pm PDT

what do you think about the logo a little higher like that?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 5:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

and you're welcome! i'm glad to help make it happen.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

sweet dreams

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

thanks again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

Imma go sleep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

turn it on!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

i gotta get the SFX layer right, though! it's turned off.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

okay cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

approved!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

slight repositioning. what do you think?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

yup

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

it would change EVERYTHING

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

otherwise, we'd have to do like a nightwing parody and that would be a whole other thematic thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

but Wonderkat could ask him "your 18 right?" before they do the deed

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

yeah that's what i'm concerned about too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

yeah that's my toughts on it aswell making him clearly older would destroy the joke

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

that's part of what makes it so funny

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

at the same time

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

so is it ENOUGH of a thing that he needs to be older? i could be persuaded that maybe he should be older

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

so do I, I think it would be an awesome crazy comic

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

so i'd rather present the fucking best pitch we can and get it accepted

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

and i love the story we've cooked up!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

consider me persuaded

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

so i guess i'm in the middle. i do agree with her that he;s young but............ there are all shapes and sizes of people

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

fair point

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

for her, i'm sure that's right. but we're not her.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

but i also think he opinions about things are ridiculously conservative and safe

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

yeah i mean my main thought it i like kelly and i consider what she suggests

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

I'm easy to persuade

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

hahaha yeah oh well we'll see

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

yeah i mean i guess the area where i differ with you is that i wouldn't wanna drop it!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

2 but that was kinda what I was saying

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

2. we can pitch it as is and be receptive to what a publisher wants

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

1. if we're really concerned, we can always draw him older, right?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

i think there are two options:

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

with that said

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

i do think it's something we didn't consider well enough

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

but (yes here it comes) the concern about KitKat's age is real and if it comes up I'm willing to just drop it. what's your idea on that?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

I love that one and can't wait to work on it more

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

yay!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

One Night Stand!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

i gotta start sending out

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

hahaha good question

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

sooo what else we gonna pitch this year? :D

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

thanks :)

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

that's classy

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

nice that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

okay cool just making sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

nah it's slow

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

wait... is it already there?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

this is what i did

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

k cool i'm going to look now

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

uploading a version with a new logo

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

okay I'll be honest I knew I left it out becuase I was to lazy to figure out how to put the with the rest of the text

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

but not for the THe

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

if nothing else try it for the resizing

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

i mean, try it if you want but really it doesn't matter when i start thinking about it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

I personally just don't care

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

I can fix it easily

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

too much work

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

nah fuck it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

it looks perfect but i feel like it sounds weird when i hear it as just "Holy Spirit"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

does it work as words?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

I don't know as an image it works

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

i mean do you think i should care about it?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

it already wasn't there

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

hahaha we decide

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

well i guess not

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

do you think it matters?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

there's no the

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

oh shit you know what i just realized?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

cool play with it as much as you like

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

i'll test it out and see what you think

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

i can just shrink it a little

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

thats what I tought

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

the hatch marks are where the yellow ends

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

yeah lemme check

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

my only concern is that it falls into the yellow "it might get cropped" area

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

carry on is. but not checking a bag. were you thinking about checking a bag?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

i dont think they'll go down

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

if you want to wait and look in a weke or so if the prices are going down that would be totally fine

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

actually, that's not as much of a thing as you'd think

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

if I would have to go there way early or something that would be fine

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

which is okay but im just looking at a few other things

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

and both times have you getting in and leaving at rush hour

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

the traffic is brutal here

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

here in LA

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

it ends up being 1050 after the voucher

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

till ehm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

the 6th

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

because it looks like the days are mostly the same price-wise

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

home

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

SO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL PLAN! hahaha what would be your favorite day to leave and favorite day to get hom?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

yeah i think it might be too risky to try and book two different reservations

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

and possible delays would fuck me

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

making things ridiculously complicated

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

but then you would definitely have to go through customs somewhere other than los angeles on your way here

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

dum dum dum

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

i could book two seperate reservations for you!!! haha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

well, yes AND no.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

can't they take it of the AE part?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

yeah no big deal though

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

so for example, no british airways

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

oh that sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

:(

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

if you like it, i can basically get it now

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

what do you think of that?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

here's the best one i found

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

no prob bob

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

I gotta go have dinner now made some creamy-ass soup

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

if you think thats best

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

but obviously a lot less for me with the voucher

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

they're like $1300 from Us Air

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

so yeah i'm finding decent flights with only one stop from Amsterdam to LA and back again

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

fucking AMERICA!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

getting in to Europe is easy getting into the US has some stress factors

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

the way back can be crazy and I wouldn't care aslong as going to LA is pretty effordless(ish)

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

okay cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

there I guess but if you don't have anything to submit you can just walk trough

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

but i just wanted to check because that last time i did that was when i was 10

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

i'm pretty sure you would only do that at your destination

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

lemme think

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

when you fly through another european city, do you have to go through customs there or in amsterdam?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

oeh yeah that would help allot

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

i might be able to use that

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

i also have this ticket voucher for US Airways for $450 towards the purchase of a ticket

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

maybe even monday to tuesday so you can actually see some LA stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

anything is cool with me if I need to I'll sleep a wek when I get back

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

yeah is cool with me

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

in fact, it might be better to do monday to monday since you have the MASSIVE time change to deal with

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

with that said, i haven't search for other days yet.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

yeah the dates are just somewhere beteen 5-8juli till somewhere between 13- and 16 or something

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

yeah so okay this is like waaaaay simpler.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

i totally understand

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

yeah I'm just not doing NYC don't want to toy with peoples feels to much

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

so shit yeah roundtrip from amsterdam should be mad easier

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

i left that part out haha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

ohhhh my $1400 was amsterdam to la, la to nyc, and nyc to amstrdam! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

8 hour overlay in moscow

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

hahahahahahahaa!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

fuck that one

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

lemme check

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

yeah i saw that one... is that total or pre-tax?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

yeah the cheapest I got now is 996

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

i was getting $1400 total with taxes which is like 1333 euros right now

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

hahaha that's funny, that's the same search i did yesterday! i think our prices are pretty similar.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

this is what I've been looking at

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

https://www.google.nl/flights/#search;f=AMS;t=LAX;d=2015-07-07;r=2015-07-14

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

I don't knowI think it might be the same. maybe we should just share our findings?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

we pay lots of taxes on flights here in the US... but i dunno if you do too

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

here's a question, though... would it cost one of us less than the other?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

and obviously that's easier when you do it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

but i also imagine it makes more sense for you to pick out the best days and times

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

part of me really enjoys that hunt

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

like, i'm totally cool with searching for the best flight anf stuff like that

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

yeah me neither

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

Anything helps. I was just about to read the review aaaand whatever works best for you. I don't know the smartest way to do this

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

i can buy it for you or i can paypal you some money for it, whatever's easier

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

and the ticket!!! we should figure out how to make that happen.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

oh also: http://www.comiccrusaders.com/review-holy-fck-3/

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

okay cool so what i'll do is upload what i have done at the end of the day today.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

I don't know would probably like to get started tomorrow

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

i also have flats to give you!!! when do you think you'll want them? i wanna get as much done before i give em to you!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

so yeah no worries.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

oh yeah i think the page will definitely work out!!! i've been sketching your design a bunch. i really like it. my next step is to learn how to draw a sari, especially hers because it has those three blue lines on it.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 3:17am PDT

I want you to do it very much but if you think it won't work out I'll make time to work on it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 3:16am PDT

do you think the page is gonna work out?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 2:27am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

ehmmm allright then

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

hahaha it's not too much to ask at all. i can afford it! think of it like an advance on that sweet, sweet royalty check we're gonna get from Action Lab.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

nah it's cool man unless your selling drugs I couldn't ask this of you

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

but yeah i'm glad to hook you up with the whole ticket, for real. so if you're interested........

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

yeah.... try to explain that to someone who doen't do this

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

but for real you have a job it just doesn't pay... at all

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

ehhhhhhhhhhhh jobs are so overrated

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Amanda's shouting at me right now about my lack of Ambition and that I don't have a Job

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

trust me it's not

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

unless this was a sweet way for you to get out of the wedding haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

but yeah dude i'm glad to hook it up with your ticket if that helps

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

yeah see i think that's the biggest problem, cuz like how the fuck do you make that work out, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

nah to difficult

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

i'd imagine you and amanda want to be on the same flight back, right?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

out

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

well i'm glad to help our however i can

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

what airline would you take from amsterdam? Delta?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

yeah man it sucks that it's like one or the other

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

I don't give a hoot about the wedding but it sucks for Amanda

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

double

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

well how do you feel about that? missing the wedding and all

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

hahaha i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

no clue

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

where in new york is the wedding? i'm curious

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

If I would do both I would be flay broke at the end :3

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

ohhhhh right like staying in new york with amanda. i gotcha.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

NewYork would also mean food money and Hotel Money

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

haha not new

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

new york to LA

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

what if you just got a ticket to new york and i got your ticket from new to LA?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

i gotcha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

money

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

ahhhhhh i see. why not both? the flights?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

I just can't do both and Amanda decided I should go to SanDiego

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

I'm still going

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

okay. what do you think about san diego then? still interested?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

I'm not going to newyork

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

just make something ape shit crazy

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

i sketched a bunch of pages but nothing as inspired as your new design

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

i don't have any cool designs yet

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

yeah for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

yeah I think that fits more with my latest design

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

so i think the all robot design works better for her

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

she could be a robot with Mother Theresa's brain patterns, etc.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

instead of being a cyborg clone

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

I was also thinking about her origin and what might be cooler for her

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

NICEEEEE!!!!! I love her arms. So cool. I like that.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 7:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 5:04am PDT

coooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 1:55am PDT

cool! I like that :) don't worry to much about the stuff we talked about we're not in a hurry.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

Jason isn't really doing collected editions for the DZ books but since i offered to take care of getting all of the pages ready, he said go for it.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

BUT i did start down a path that got us something interesting potentially -- a collected edition on ComiXology. why's that special? because it would be a version of the story without all the covers and backup stories in between. basically, it would be just like intended the story to be.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

okay so i did a terrible job of getting any work done on the important stuff that we actually talked about today like the 2resa page, design, and the flats.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

toodels

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

toodaloo!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

alright im off.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

okay so anyway i'll start uploading that stuff tonight

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

i ifgured why have you go through and select the same colors like 10 times

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

no I'll just finish one and then adjust it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

I can do it it's fine

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

other wise i've got some stuff done on pages 1,2, and 5

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

oh okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

or should i just copy the vectors and place them?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yeah that'll work

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

it might be easier for you to get the colors right and then copy the vector files into each panel where it appears

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

and i figured

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

okay cool, i have some flats done, not that much but a little. i did the very first table panel

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

the final group page when I'm happy with 2resa I can draw that and then it's just colouring

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

what are you diving into next?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

cool have fun

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

stique and i are going to the beach now for a few hours but i'll work on some ideas tonight

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

which is cool.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

definitely not bad. it's like terminator mother theresa

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

it's not bad perse it's just kinda weak

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

I never actually designed anything I was super happy with thats 72% of the problem

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

lemme scan in a sketch

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

have you done any sketches of the character that i should be working with?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

sure

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

how about this? give me the weekend to play around with some layouts and designs. then we can decide if i can handle it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

why not we don't have any nick art in there yet

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

should i? probably not.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

want? yes.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

hahahahaha!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

you want to draw it? :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

lots of shadows

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

stick figures

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I'm looking for the easy way out :P

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

manga is better than my idea, which was a really modular, cluttered type of thing. kinda like Kevin Hopgood in the 90s Iron Man and War Machine comics.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

ooooooooooooooooo manga could be fucking sweeeeet!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

gotta do a poop now but will tell more in a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

thinking either manga ish or super angular

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

that's okay!!! i think anything you do will rock. have you had any ideas for it yet at all?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

uploading page 22. don't know how to do page 21 yet

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

fooooood

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

mmmmmmmmm!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

probably thinks it's a statment about the state of the american police force

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

well i look forward to seeing what he thinks of the rocket fucking in the last issue!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

blegh booooooring

Nick MarinoFriday, March 13, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

aaron emailed me about it but i haven't read it yet

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

frankly

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

which he does

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

she was kinda squeamish about the One Night Stand pitch because she felt Kidkat looked super dooper young

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

she didn't share any contacts (STINGY!!!!!)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 12, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 3:08pm PDT

hahahaha I'm cool with whatever style you choose!!! i really like the layouts for the page. i know it's gonna be fucking great.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

I'd love to just go for the kirbyesque style but don't feel like I would do it justice

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

might go for a ehmm ONS style instead of kirby style

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

hahaha april fools!!! I CAN"T DRAW!!! muuwaahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

Any ideas?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

Also, I haven't been to a comic shop yet to see our books there!!! But hopefully our final issue will be out on April Fool's Day. Maybe I'll do something to celebrate, like go prank customers at a shop in the area that carries Holy F*ck #4...

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

I had Scott combine my orders of Holy F*ck #2-3 into one shipment, and those should be on their way from Diamond sometime this week. Then I'll mail 'em off to you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

niiiiice

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

yay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

hahaha yeah! the Miller-esque Sin City vibe, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

I just need you to tell me you understand the stylistic reference

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

YEP. That's the fucking stuff!!! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome design for the Secret Pope. He's fucking hardcore!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

coooooooooooooooooooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 11, 2015 at 1:25am PDT

yeah I fully agree on the not when I saw the lettered page I noticed it looks stupid

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

top marks all around on the first book! you go the extra inch in the penis department for sure! only note I had would be, on the grid of panels of dialogue between Anansi and Herc (page 16 I think), Herc's face repeats unchanged in panels 2-5... but he's only talking in a couple of them, with his mouth open in all seems if you closed his mouth in panel 3, it would work better all around (even though he doesn't talk in panel 5 either, his mouth remaining open could be a reaction to the news) little, and fine either way just thought I'd mention it its really good and knowing where it goes, even better

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

Jason's notes on Holy F*cked #1:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

cool and awesome to all of the above :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

Vito's trying to find a signing for me around here for FCBD. i doubt a store will leap at it but who knows maybe we'll get lucky.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

i had to email Jason about the TPB to make sure it was being put together at the printer. so i also sent him the F*cked #1 PDF. just wanted to let you know.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

ohhh yah i totally understand that about the US thing. i think they would definitely be interested. you should probably have all of the email addresses you need, but if not just lemme know

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

fuck man now you put Rainbow Wizard on my mind again

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

for us here the format of us comics is exciting and saying you got something done is the US gives you a little cache

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

it;s more for Abe and Wouter

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

I would not right now but I would

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

would you pitch that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

i want a fucking Rainbow Wizard book!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

okay cool thanks man

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

very realistic! i think they'd be game for it. they have a bunch of international creators and series: Bo Plushy Gangsta, Mishka and the something or other, Itty Bitty, and more. send Jason an email. or if it's not a mature readers thing, Shawn Gabborin. oh, and Dave Dwonch. because he's cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

I know the itty bitty bunny guy is australian

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

I got a weird question I know you have no real answers but you might have more insight. How realistic would it be for me or one of my dutch friends to do a solo series trough actionlab

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

sweeeeet!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

thanks man finishing up 13 right now

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i hadn't seen 15-17 yet. they're so good.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

also i fucking love the new pages!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

i mean i would do it anyway for flatting so i figured why not get it out of the way first

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

yeah no prob

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

i made a few formatting tweaks to the issues in #1 as well so i fyou already downloaded those you might wanna grab em again

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

thanks man

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

just in case you want them before they're flatted.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

i went through and formatted all of your #2 pages so far: https://www.dropbox.com/home/Holy%20Fuck%20-%20creators/volume%20fucking%20two/issue%202

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

yeah and then people ask me why I don't want to do a release part for ZombieHipsters

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

hahahahaha NICE!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

yeah my local store was like :'if you can get enough orders for the trade we would love to have a signing" but they got like 2 or 3 orders one was be and another was abe

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yeah that's my situation. i just replied to the email, told them where i live, and that i don't have a preferred shop. obviously your situation is a bit different but who knows they might have an awesome relationship with a retailer near you.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

I could contact the 2 closest stores to me but usually they don't have people for fcbd

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i'll forward you the email

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

okay because they also sent out a FCBD email. do you think you'll be at a shop for FCBD?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

at some stores they have FCBD

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

of course you didn't. why would they email a creator? i mean, c'mon... at least not a creator who draws.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

also, do they have FCBD in your neck of the world?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

nope didn't get it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

i replied for you just in case you didn't get it. but yeah that's something they're checking on.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

from Action Lab, that is.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

but yeah i appreciate all the knowledge you're dropping on me. BTW did you get that email about who's going to San Diego?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

I got my moments

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

whoa. you just leveled up to a whole new section of wisdom that i'm not ready for yet! i'm still trying to not get pissed about typos in a press release! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

it's either that or coming up with something that has a great hook and at least 5000 people like

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

honestly it's okay to get riled up that way you can get stuff done. it might help getting yourself to the next level

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

but i'll learn

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

which is tough

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

but yeah what you said... basically i'm learning not to get riled up about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

not fucks

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

fucking

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

hahahahaha YES!!! it fucks seems like a drug front!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

but I'm liek if these people get to do stuff like marketing and stuff there must be some money right? are they selling drugs?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

I also don't have time to be annoyed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

it sucks and it's easy to get riled up about but ya gotta let go

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

so now i'm unlearning things.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

i got really used to controlling everything, from the audioshocker to my webcomics.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

yeah you're a pro at it. but this is really the first time i've ever dealt with it!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

hahaha yeah I'm allready used to that

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

lately i'm working a lot on accepting that a lot of this stuff is out of my control and often controlled by people who i think do a shitty job. haha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i'm not psyched about Jamal having more authority because i think he's kind of a jerk, but whatever.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

hah! yeah, Vito. he's cool. i didn't know he had credits like that, to be honest. i thought Stray was his first comic book.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

okay I guess it's more like D-listers. but I mean the people that have done things for big publishers like Jamal and the new marketing guy

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

hahahaha which c-listers?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

whats up with C-listers and ActionLab? I tought it was just Z-listers doing stuff with them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 10, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

oh well we'll score out book with our without her help :) and I'm happy the thinks fucked is funny :)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 10:25pm PDT

i also shared Holy F*cked #1 with her and she said she laughed a lot. so bonus points for that.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 10:24pm PDT

so i heard back from Kelly about One Night Stand. no contacts from her yet, but maybe she'll hook it up at some point. but ehhhhhhhhhh probably not.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

thanks man I think it's pretty meh, but I'm happy you like it

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

i love the way this page is coming along

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

OMG OMG OMG

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

OMG

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 9, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 9, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 8, 2015 at 11:12pm PDT

ignore that stupid jetblue thing i sent you. trying to get some points to get a free flight to Big Wow ComicFest next month

Nick MarinoSunday, March 8, 2015 at 7:21pm PDT

OMG OMG OMG Jamal sent out the preview pages and the PDF and they're actually readable! He's still inexplicably using the censored versions of our covers and for some reason he left our regular cover off of the review PDF, but at least people can actually read the text in them!! IT'S A FUCKING MIRACLE!! haha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 8, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, March 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 8, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

okay, sounds good. i'm fucking stoked to see the new apostles!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

the plan is two ink like 2/3 pages a day and after that do one apostle page a day

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

oh cool i'll be able to flat a shit ton of pages in that time!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:37am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:36am PST

just waiting to be corrutped

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:36am PST

i think holy f*cked would click more with the yaoi crowd but i mean i believe there's a holy f*ck fan in all of us

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:35am PST

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:31am PST

and my comics are waaaaaaaay gayer than abe's

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:30am PST

yup neither of our shit has anything to do with manga

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:29am PST

that should be fun and weird

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:29am PST

Abe got invited (because they always invite 1 gay comics guy) and if his boyfriend doesn't want to go with him I'll go with him

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:27am PST

please

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:27am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:27am PST

YESSSSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:25am PST

I might go to to a yaoi convention in may

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:23am PST

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:23am PST

speaking of which im going to send out a holy f*ck #3 email right now

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:23am PST

nope. not really.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:22am PST

but for some reason there not allot of comics like that

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:21am PST

very much so

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:21am PST

ditto

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:20am PST

yeah I just like dark-ish comedy

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:20am PST

i wish they did more comics on stuff like that, where since it's a situation comedy like that you can imagine infinite plots that don't interfere with the show

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:18am PST

I'm thinking about series and stuff that might line up with our humor

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:16am PST

allright I think its pretty good

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:16am PST

i know of it but only seen about 5 mins

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:16am PST

anyways have you ever seen the series Wilfred?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:15am PST

well see

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:15am PST

i was hoping she might do SDCC this year for jem but i now i doubt it

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:14am PST

i bet you will

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:14am PST

I hope I get to meet het some day she seems pretty cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:13am PST

agreed. i hope it helps with that. shes had a shitty past year from what i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:12am PST

oh well good on him ya know, everybody deserves happiness

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:09am PST

mhhh interesting

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:09am PST

unless she told the company first

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:09am PST

OH yah know what... Jem #1 will probably say Ross and #2 will probably say Sophie

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:08am PST

and imagine how many people out there who buy comics but dont follow this kind of comics news who won't know for years, probably

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:08am PST

oh yeah and my first tought was "he is almost bald"

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:08am PST

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:08am PST

and the books still say ross

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:07am PST

oh right. yeah it's natural to slip up though at first

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:07am PST

yeah it's difficult like I bring her work up so much

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:06am PST

so before i knew she announced it, i was like "fuuuuuck when do i start saying she instead of he?!?"

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:06am PST

she told me like two days ago and then said she was gonna make the announcement on saturday

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:06am PST

yeah it's super hard not to do

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

OMG i know i had all fo these congratulatory things in my head that involved some kinda guy reference

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

hahaha yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

i bet jason has no fucking clue too, which really makes me smile

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

I almost tweeted "good for you, man"

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

should be done pretty soon if ya want em

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

i'm uploading the lettered TIFs now

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:05am PST

yah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

is cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

I understand

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

i figured but i didn't know for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

I know

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

oh ross is sophie now, FYI

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

i was even gonna try out

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:04am PST

oh fuck yeah sophie had a hell of a time getting a consistent colored that she liked for Glory

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:03am PST

i started saving our pages with the zip style of TIF so they're taking up half the space that they did before. we shouldn't run into any space issues in dropbox anymore, i don't think.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:03am PST

nobody cares

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:02am PST

like take glory for example has 4 compeltely diffent coloring styles

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:02am PST

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:01am PST

hahaha maybe

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:01am PST

we'll be consistent when these fuckers pay us!! hahaha!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:01am PST

fuck em

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:01am PST

seriously

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:01am PST

fuck consistend coloring :P

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:00am PST

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:00am PST

nah I won't add anything

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:00am PST

so if you're interested in adding some halftone to the first issue, i'll need to give you the less compressed versions

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 9:00am PST

those are super condensed and all of the art on them is combined.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:59am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:59am PST

yeah do that

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:59am PST

speaking of which, i was gonna delete the pages in the "issue 1" folder and replace them with the lettered pages

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:59am PST

I hope you can just copy and adjust here and there

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:58am PST

yell i'll drop it in there in a bit

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:58am PST

dropbox, i guess?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:57am PST

yay

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:56am PST

yep im interested.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 7, 2015 at 8:52am PST

just tell me if you are interested in doing some flats the monotone pages should be quite easy

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

I know right :P

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:46pm PST

yeah great point

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

so do I but I would like oni for pretty much anything

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

i fucking want oni for this so bad.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

yeah but that's what makes it so much fun!!! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

the biggest problem with them is that ONS looks like an all-ages book

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

hahahaha thanks!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

tons

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

does Boom even do mature stuff? i just thought of that...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

i don't know that she really has any anyway

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

i tried to get some contacts out of Heather Nunnelly because i helped her write a cover letter and treatment for her webcomic. BUT SHE DIDN'T GIMME ANY! hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

OH YEAH!!! aaron. good idea. aaron always sends me early shit anyway.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

you might get a I like it out of Aaron

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

yeah neither do i

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

jeez I don't know who you know

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

i mean... opinions?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

can you think of any other pro comics peeps i know who might be willing to cough up some personal contacts?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

cool. i sent Kelly the pages and treatment. i asked for her opinion on the materials and which publishers she thinks might like to work with us. hopefully she likes it enough to pass along some of her personal contacts!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

looks good to me

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

i basically copied the email i sent to Action Lab because i figured that one seemed to work the best

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

so i just emailed you the pitch

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

hahahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

yup they should have ordered more TPB's

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

fuck em

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

yeah I think the repeating works, people will hate it but I feel good about it.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:47pm PST

there's something i really love about the repeating panel... i think it's the way it hammers home how boring and mundane this dinner might be otherwise, if not for the argument that erupts out of it. also, i LOVE the page of Satan and Maria standing there. i think i already said that.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:46pm PST

thanks man

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

schmoocharino is a kickass sound effect. and that old guy is amazing!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

i love the shot of Herc and Maria scooping the food. great expressions.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

that guy staring at Jesus and Satan in the lamaz class... hahaha awesome!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

I FUCKING LOVE THE BABY SHOWER! those creatures are incredible

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

i just looked at the pages again... few things...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

and sweet to the ONS stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

thanks man! makes the lazy backgrounds feel less lazy.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:34pm PST

i got caught up playing around with some ONS stuff. i'm about to go put together the PDF of the pages and covers now.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 12:34pm PST

I love the halftone!!! looks fucking great. these pages are coming along wonderfully. i'm really feeling this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 10:56am PST

the grey stuff is a halftone pattern I decided I might want to make use of that a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:43am PST

allright!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:42am PST

alright, i'm gonna get cracking on ONS. will email you the full pitch thing within the next hour or so

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:42am PST

though i doubt it

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:42am PST

i'm actually kind of hoping ALF is on there since it was an NBC show

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:42am PST

oh yeah there could be so many shitty comics we could make with their NBC license

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:41am PST

well end up doing something funny

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:41am PST

yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:39am PST

awesome!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:38am PST

in a week or two i'll follow up with Shannon from Lion Forge

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:38am PST

and that was actually family friendly

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:38am PST

that would be great too because what sitcom like that has ever had a comic book? i guess ALF is it, really.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:37am PST

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:37am PST

real nice

Nick MarinoFriday, March 6, 2015 at 9:37am PST

we would kill that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 6, 2015 at 8:01am PST

waddabout an it's awlays sunny in Philadelphia comic

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 5, 2015 at 11:32pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 5, 2015 at 10:59pm PST

extra terrestrial? entertainment tonight? estrogen testosterone?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 5, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

so tell me about your ET experiences

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 2:43pm PST

okay, weird, while i was emailing you i caught something that had to be fixed. but now it's sent! i hope you like it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

i'm tweaking

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

i lied

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

maybe 10 mins

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

i'm about to send you a Holy F*cked #1 PDF proof

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 12:56pm PST

he almost got it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

"But given the content, it’s a claim that again turns absurd and, to a point, a little amusing. "

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

hopefully next issue will do it for him since it's less subtle.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

OMG how does this guy still not get it?!? http://www.sacredandsequential.org/2015/03/04/review-of-holy-fck-2-provocation-for-provocations-sake/

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:39am PST

oef thats pretty bad

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 8:53am PST

but apparently 200 is still the high end of average for Danger Zone TPBs. HOW DOES THIS COMPANY MAKE ANY MONEY?!?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 8:52am PST

kind of oddly low considering our other numbers

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 8:52am PST

only about 200 orders for the Holy F*ck TPB

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:16am PST

yeah could be probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:11am PST

i downloaded the episode from the week our book came out... it's their Secret Wars discussion which has like 0 show notes. i bet it's on there.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:07am PST

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:06am PST

i mean they tend to mention everything but it's just a massive block of text

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:05am PST

but usually they are pretty through

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:04am PST

ugh their fucking show notes are a mess

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:04am PST

the thing is I couldn't find anything in their show notes

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:04am PST

i figured Vince would be into it, but i think i emailed it to David because he was the only email i could find

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:04am PST

maybe i'll give em a shot later today

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:03am PST

I don't know when I must have missed it I listen to most of the episodes while working

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:03am PST

only one of 'erm read it but liked it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:03am PST

dunno if i can make it through a bunch of them

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:03am PST

and did he say when? they're episodes are so fucking long

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 7:02am PST

niiiiiiice. good or bad mention? or neither?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 6:59am PST

according to him 11'o clock did mention the comic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 6:57am PST

yeah he is one of the windmill comics guys

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 6:50am PST

scroll all the way to the bottom: http://www.comics.org/changeset/2333189/compare/

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 6:50am PST

i randomly updated our Grand Comics Database listing yesterday and just found out that you were hanging out with a GCD editor -- Ramon -- at that comic con! haha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 12:02am PST

yeah I'm not suprised

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:08pm PST

oh and James F Wright who i met over the weekend (writes Nutmeg for ALE) said they do the same thing to his artist too even though they're both the creators, where they mostly email him and shit

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

i mean, i dunno 100% for sure that #3 is out next week, but Jason told me and he knows more accurate dates than i do

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

cool. something like that

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

"show us your Twinsies" hahaha alright

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:04pm PST

hahaha that would be cool

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

what if we do something like "take a pic of #2 and #3 together" and we can call it "Twinsies!" or something

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

just for #2, that is.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

hmmmmm i dunno if i wanna do the "take a pic" thing if our next issue is coming out next week...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:45am PST

yay good stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:34am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:12am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:11am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:10am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:09am PST

yay letters! yeah the morning of the con my voice was all fucked up and becuase I am stupid I decided not to wear a jacket but only a cardigan. my nips were rock hard

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:08am PST

FUUUUCK, not about the inking but you being sick!!! i hope you get better ASAP. i fucking hate colds, especially the kind i get from conventions (although i guess yours probably came from before that). i should have the letters done today. maybe tomorrow depending on how long this errand takes me today, but i doubt it.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:06am PST

I haven't gotten to ink anything since friday due to the con and mygirlfriends brother coming over, and now I'm sick

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:04am PST

yup sell it on the fact that your a nice guy

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:02am PST

all the comic book creators i shared the book with were really feeling it just from the cover. Mahfood, Casey, Chris Burnham, a few other randos. talked to some retailers too, which went great. one dude told me he sold a shit load of em. so hopefully the more i do of that networking, the bigger boost we'll get.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 9:01am PST

yep! exactly!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:59am PST

yeah at the end it doen't matter to much it's just sillyness, it also gives us a little more motivation to move on

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:58am PST

yeah it's silly. my one consolation is that at least it's going wrong with our first book! also, generally, people are feeling it so whatever. eventually they'll forget shit like this.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:55am PST

ugh that shit make me tired

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:53am PST

yes, it is!!! i thin it's because i really started nagging Jason to send the files out on time with #3. so that issue is basically on time while #1 and #2 were late as shit! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:53am PST

shit*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:53am PST

weird hit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:52am PST

whut

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:52am PST

and apparently #3 is out next week? hahahaha WHAT IS GOING ON?!? hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 8:39am PST

so not only did Jamal NOT use the preview pages i sent him (or even reply to my email), but he's also using an outdated version of the book to send out the previews. he's using the version of Holy F*ck from before i went through and tightened up the letters! where the hell is he getting it from?!? i redid the letters a fucking long time ago... like six months ago, if not more. so where is he getting this old version from? sigh. hahahahahahaha. i know i just gotta let this stuff go but it drives me crazy!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 8:53am PST

i've been working on the hotel stuff this weekend. hopefully something good soon.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 8:52am PST

i hope your next show is 100x better! especially if it's San Diego :)

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 8:52am PST

ugggghhhh i hate shows like that!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 1, 2015 at 7:58am PST

in short the con itself was pretty bad for artists and publishers. windmill comics sucks. I like hangin' with mah friends

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 1, 2015 at 7:57am PST

I sat with windmill comics but they are boring and stuff. so I tried to hang out as much as possible with Wouter and Abe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 1, 2015 at 7:54am PST

the von was just kinda depressing. for some reason they mad mood lighting everywhere aso after 2 hours I felt like drinking and not long after that I felt like sleeping. there weren't many artists and most of the guests did not seem interested in artists

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 2:29am PST

tell me about your shitty con!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 2:29am PST

he was loving your jesus on the cover.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 11:28pm PST

cool man happy that stuff went to well, love Mahfood's art

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 7:51pm PST

gave it to a bunch of other people too. the reactions to it were pretty good. going back tomorrow and planning to hand out a bunch more.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 7:50pm PST

hahaha the churro was a big hit. i gave the book to Jim Mahfood too, who totally geeked out over the title, like super hard. also, gave it to Joe Casey who was like "what's with the asterisk?" and after i told him he was like "next time, just go for it." hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

I was at a shitty ass con-today so no I've been drinkin' churros lookin' good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

hahahaha good stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 28, 2015 at 10:42am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 4:32pm PST

lettering update! i'm almost done. i know i'm so sloooow. i hate it. but hopefully you'll really dig it. tomorrow is the long beach comic expo so i dunno how much i'll get done this weekend... wanted to be done today but that won't happen. but it'll be done super soon!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 12:07am PST

thats fantastique!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 27, 2015 at 12:06am PST

oh yeah I've inked about 4.5 pages of #2

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 27, 2015 at 12:06am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:47pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:44pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:43pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:42pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:40pm PST

I want to make them all fit together a bit better

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:40pm PST

I'm already thinking what I want to do for the Holy F*cked covers

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:36pm PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:35pm PST

yeah that sounds cool

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:35pm PST

yeah, something similar... i'm thinking the motivation could be to get a first look at Holy F*cked.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:31pm PST

mhh yeah could be cool, the same thing again?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:31pm PST

our "take a pic" thing did great last time. should we try something like that again?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:30pm PST

so, i dunno, we'll see what happens i guess!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:30pm PST

allright, that works

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:29pm PST

so i just sent him preview pages i want him to use

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:29pm PST

i was going to make a good quality PDF and send it to Jamal, but i don't feel like getting into company politics and hurting his feelings just because he does a half-assed job

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:29pm PST

I think thats normal

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:28pm PST

with the first one, i actually sent it twice. and to a looooooot of people. that got us a few good early reviews. but most of the reviews seemed to really come from people buying the issue.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:27pm PST

think you covered all the important ones

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

mhhh not that I can think of, I thik

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

i mostly just sent it to peeps that already reviewed it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

okay awesome, you the best

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:21pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 10:15pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

i really loved what both michelle and heather did

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

if nothing else, i think a few of our pinup artists could do some good variants

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

yeah he would rule!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

like fransisco frankasomething

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

oeh

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

maybe Dave Wachter... he has this super serious watercolor / painted style

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

yeah and yeah

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

they would all do fantastic variant sales

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

i'll look into all of them. i mean, we go for 20 artists and we end up with 3 or 4, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

hahah true

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

theres a good chance some of these creators will be down just because the title and idea are so ridiculous

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

i'll look into it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:21pm PST

I wasn't going to bring it up but I was thinking it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:21pm PST

you can read my mind !?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:21pm PST

that one's a bit ambitious for me

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:21pm PST

hahaha Bruce Timm

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:20pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:29pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 10:34pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 3:17pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:23am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:21am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:20am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:19am PST

I want to have the cosmic moses page look as much as kirby as I can, but I haven't quite figured out the rest yet

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:18am PST

I want to do the new apostle pages to be in different styles and stuff but I haven't quite figured out any of the characters. moses and 2resa are closest to what I want

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:15am PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:15am PST

yeah, i've done a bunch of dialogue. i'm planning to send it over all at once, if that's cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:15am PST

cool :) have you done any lettering?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:14am PST

i'm gonna try out some stuff like "crash!" "bam!" "smash!" and see how it looks next to music notes.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 11:13am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 10:03am PST

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 10:01am PST

if there's one thing i know, you'll fucking kill the art so i think it'll work too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 10:00am PST

allot of very similar panels but I think it'll work

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:59am PST

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:59am PST

I can't wait to see more!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:59am PST

LOOKIN GOOD!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:57am PST

i just never uploaded it I want to pick it up again but I'll just upload em whenever I have one and feel like it.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:56am PST

it's an old one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:56am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:56am PST

and it's awesome

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:55am PST

holy shit you sneaky bastard! new Dead Mondays.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:55am PST

also

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:55am PST

ye just gotta figure out the comics part :3

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:55am PST

thats cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:54am PST

probably on like postal cards

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:54am PST

will you do prints of the Seasame Hipsters?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:53am PST

and most deadmondays stuff doesn't quite work in black and white

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:53am PST

yeah i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:52am PST

the reason I don't want to have a whole lot of Holy F*ck's is becuase it's called "Art Comic Fair"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:51am PST

myeah that's an option

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:51am PST

what about the holy f*ck webcomics? also, i can send you more copies of the first issue if you want 'em

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:50am PST

but I don't think sitting there with 2 20cent comics and a print or something will make anyone happy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:49am PST

I actually like that part it's just that the show is in a month so I don't have time to make anything from scratch and all I have that's not super old is 1 8 pager and maybe some blend-bot strips

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:47am PST

well, formatting and printing

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:47am PST

yes, i knowwwww! printing is my least favorite part of making comics.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:42am PST

it's a pain

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:42am PST

I'm trying to compile some work into a minicomic or soemthing for a comicarts festival thingy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:38am PST

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:38am PST

i'll be sending out my own review PDF anyway, especially to the people who reviewed #1. but i had this idea to fuck with the people who gave it really dumb or half-assed reviews and send them a copy with totally different dialogue.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

i think i know a good way to start the conversation

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

fuck their toes there is a reason why our book sells better then most of their books

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

i appreciate your input on it.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

okay cool i just wanted to see if you agreed

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

but i'm just not cool with my shit being sloppy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

no man, your just making sure our shit is the way we want it

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:34am PST

i already feel like that guy who steps on toes

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

do you think it would be dick of me if i gave that stuff to Jason or Jamal?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

I agree

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

i really want our shit to actually be readable!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

ask

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

i don't know if Jason gives him the images or if Jamal gets them himself.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:33am PST

mhhh that sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:32am PST

it's regular sized

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:32am PST

so Jamal Igle sends out the previews and review copies for upcoming comics. sometimes the images and PDFs are so lo-res that they're practically unreadable.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 23, 2015 at 9:32am PST

i have something i want your advice on...

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:00pm PST

yah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

just gotta keep pitching stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

probably

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 9:44am PST

yeah, agreed. ya know, i used to have this philosophy that for every 10ish collaborations i tried to start, 1 would work out. and i think landing new projects may follow similar rules.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 12:31am PST

I saw the banana guy mike episode guess I watched more than i thought. anyways cool that there are small steps being made, we'll see if anything happends or not. if it does, cool if not it dun matter

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:49pm PST

anyway, he thought it might be worth exploring but i didn't get the impression that Kevin felt it was a particularly exciting prospect.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:49pm PST

but since Penguins and King Julian come from the same franchise, Titan Comics may currently have the rights to use King Julian and his crew in their stories.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:48pm PST

he said they typically handle their properties individually, so Titan doing a Dragons book may not interfere with another company doing a different book.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

he did work with them and even wrote a few Shrek stories.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:46pm PST

i talked to Kevin about Dreamworks. they're kind of tough to work with in his experience, very protective of what their characters can and can't do.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

anyway, i guess maybe i'll start by asking Kevin what he thinks and then go from there.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

you might like #4 a lot where he pretends to be a character called Banana Guy Mike. that's pretty great.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:21pm PST

cool. i love the one with Carl, the Fanoloka or whatever he is. such a good supervillain.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

yup the potential is there i watched 1-3

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

what episodes did you watch? my faves are 2-4. the first one is just meh. but yeah regardless of if you liked it as much as me, i think it has a lot of potential.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 11:47am PST

I watched some of the king Julien stuff it's pretty good. it's not the best but it could be a pretty fun thing to work on.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 6:22am PST

yeah both titan and IDW have doctor who

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 4:43am PST

i was wondering about their doctor who because i definitely thought another company had it...

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:24am PST

titan usually has the uk rights. they also publish adventure time and have their own non IDW doctor who

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 2:21pm PST

Titan Comics is currently doing a Dragons series and they did an adaptation of the Penguins movie, though, so they might have an exclusive licensed with Dreamworks right now. i have no clue. i can always email Titan about it.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 2:20pm PST

also, i just realized that ALE president Kevin Freeman used to be in charge of the publisher APE Entertainment back when they published comics featuring Dreamworks characters, so that might be an in for us if you like the idea of doing a King Julian pitch.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

do you have Netflix? there's this 5-episode show on there about the weird lemur character from the Madagascar movies. the movies are fine, whatever. but the show is incredible stuff!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

ya know what i think we would kill on, though? King Julian.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

my big fear would be... "HOW CAN I TOP THAT???" The Naked Gun is like my Bible.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

HAH! dream come true

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

would anyone let us make a naked gun comic?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

and a curse

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

it's a gift

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

I'm not to bad at silly one-liners

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

you're on fire today

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

i'll draw a churro and cut it out and give it to him! he can't forget that.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

OMG yes you've done it again... i'

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

paper churro

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

yes.... yes i do... hahaha i'll have to make my own, otherwise

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

cool :) better hope they have churros

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

so we'll see.................................

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

that's what he typed.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

You had me at churro. :) Looking forward to seeing you at the show!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

literally:

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

hahaha what did he say?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

it was just a "looking forward to seeing you at the show" response.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

yep. the churro line did it. well played, my friend.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:39am PST

sweet

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:39am PST

and he wrote me back already! i have to post something on here and then i'll read it.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:34am PST

cewl

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:25am PST

emailed.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:04am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:03am PST

hahaha i'm gonna put that line in there "i'll buy you a churro... ya know, if you're into that"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:02am PST

but yeah also tell him you can talk to him at the con and you'll buy him a churro if he likes those

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:01am PST

yeah i think that's about right

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:00am PST

* and then

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:00am PST

I mean tell him you think the stuff they do is cool and they ask him te bend over

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:59am PST

i mean, i guess i could offer to take the guy to lunch or dinner or something, but that feels like overkill to me, especially since we're talking about lion forge

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:59am PST

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:36am PST

lube before you start plowing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:35am PST

nah just grease 'em a bit

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:35am PST

so i'm emailing Shannon now. anything in particular you want me to say?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:34am PST

wow, that's even more impressive.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:34am PST

yeah the mailman came by yesterday but no one awnsered or something

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:33am PST

whooaaaaa! one week? shit!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:32am PST

I got the books today

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:32am PST

yeah basically the way i feel too. the miami vice remix indicates to me that they're down to take chances, so that's cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:00am PST

cool yeah I actually think their stuff looks good and all that, just not necessarily mah thang

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:51am PST

yeah i mean generally i couldn't give two fucks about what they're currently doing, but who knows what they have planned for the future. at least their shit is gonna be in print books now too. i'll shoot Shannon a line (the editor i was talking about).

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 3:37am PST

I used to love Knight rider but I wouldn't be right for that. I guess I could do like 1 issue of saved by the bell

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 3:35am PST

I was thinking about them as wel, relating to ALF

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:44pm PST

lots of random 80s properties too... i could try and talk him into the ALF thing! haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

a senior editor from that company will be at the Long Beach Comic Expo in a week. i could try to talk him up a bit.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

http://www.lionforge.com/comics/

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:54am PST

That is just..... those are fucking perfect. I mean, seriously, I love those pages. Even better than I could have imagined. Especially the bath kiss.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:45am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:42am PST

nah of alf sketches :P

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:42am PST

page of Holy F*ck #2?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:42am PST

i would argue that you're getting just the right amount of "into this"!!!! your ALF face is fucking perfect now and your Kate fucking rocks too. i still haven't heard anything, though :(

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:41am PST

"inked"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:41am PST

I got a couple more pages but most of theme weren't inked

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 7:41am PST

haha FUCK YEAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 5:47am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 5:47am PST

getting a bit to much into this

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 17, 2015 at 8:07am PST

yeah that's true

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 17, 2015 at 12:32am PST

don't worry about it you can promote it whenever it'll be there

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

but whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

i'm mostly annoyed because i won't really be around that day

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

i can't type today apparently

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 16, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

pfff oh well that sucks

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 11:01am PST

i was torn about sending it to him soon... i was gonna wait to give it to him until around the time i wanted it posted. but i figured if i asked him, maybe he would wait.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 10:59am PST

this company!!! hahahaa

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 10:59am PST

i asked Kevin if he would hold it for mid-March but i guess he decided not to wait.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 10:58am PST

fucking hell, Holy F*ck #4 is going to be on ComiXology this week. sigh.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 16, 2015 at 10:22am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:58pm PST

hahahaha i know what you mean! i use these cheapo Paper Mater Flairs and the same thing happens to me.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:57pm PST

whenever the pen is pretty new the pages are pretty good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:57pm PST

yeah I think this one is pretty good

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:56pm PST

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh i see what you mean... but i like the raw ballpoint feel, crooked borders or not.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:54pm PST

nah man it's my borders

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:54pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:53pm PST

fucking hell crooked scanning is the worst.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:50pm PST

I just scanned some balpoint pages it's sooo crocked

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:46pm PST

hahah yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:46pm PST

my favorite part is the lighting! he's got a cool little glow to him.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:31pm PST

the character is starting to form, it starts to feel like him but I don't quite like the line work

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:14pm PST

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:14pm PST

i likes

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 3:14pm PST

NICEEEEEE!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 2:43pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:22pm PST

i'll be working on the publisher list today so i might email you an update

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:22pm PST

yeah good call

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PST

oni and DH are always my top pick :P

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

maybe Kelly can hook it up

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

WE NEED A FUCKING ONI CONTACT!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

i've just seen them in the news

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

see, i didn't even know if they were popular enough that their name is well known among comics people

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

yeah their stuff seems good

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

i'm gonna go through Previews to see who i may be forgetting

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

i dunno if they're a good fit, though they're doing good stuff lately

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

Heather may have a contact at this new company, Black Mask Studios

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

your list seems pretty spot on

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

would be awesome but woudn't work

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

yeah probably not a right fit

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

but maybe i'm wrong?

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

Dark Horse seems like a bad fit for One Night Stand to me

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

beyond that, there are a couple of imprint publishers who are iffy fits like Archaia and Darby Pop

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

basically, it's Image, Oni, IDW, Boom, and ALE

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

work it!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

i gotta work my connections , man!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

i just started going through our publisher list. maybe 5 good companies for us on there, and three of the best ones aren't open to cold submissions :(

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

well try and see :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

yeah that's what i'm working towards as well, kind of expecting it to take me 5-ish years to be established and doing this stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

5 years from now I'd like to be able to consider doing comics full-ish time

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:58am PST

the ittybitty bunies guy does some simpsons stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:56am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:56am PST

I'd just like to see how it is to play with someone else's toys for a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

I don't have anything specific to be honest

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

is there anything like this that you have an interest in... like if you could do any licensed thing, it would be BLANK

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

right

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

but you don't you till you do it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

I understand that

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

but if he's a control freak for no reason, this could be a sucky project. that's my only reservation

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

that's what i think. nothing to lose. ALF is barely doing anything now. only commercials. if nothign else, this will bring in a little money and some fresh attention. maybe sell some more DVDs

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:52am PST

and the guys that do that are not big names either

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:52am PST

if he sees that the bill and ted thing is starting up again taht might spike his interest

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:51am PST

anyways he has nothing to loose

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:51am PST

so who knows, maybe this could work. but i'm going into it mostly out of curiousity

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:51am PST

yes indeed

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:51am PST

however, if he's still trying to get a movie made, there's no better way to do that now than having a comic book

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:51am PST

it's not gonna be like that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

i mean, the thing is, there's not a lot of money in comics. i dunno what paul would expect. he had a comic back during the boom days at Marvel.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

hahaha it's allright

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

my spelling is atrocious today

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

yeah I guess if it would work like that the deal could be pretty good

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

like

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:49am PST

yeah, Ted is so much life ALF.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:49am PST

my only other thought is about the business stuff... i feel like if i'm the one that brings this property to a publisher, there's potential for us to get a better deal out of it.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

If I would write it I would rip off ted

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

that way the old character can be there, but they can show up as a special thing.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

so it's like a continuation of his story rather than a reboot

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

ah yeah thats smart

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

hahaha okay

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:48am PST

but he still lived with the Tanners from 1986-1990, like the TV

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:47am PST

not really. my only idea was that he's with a different family.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:47am PST

oh well it sound like fun I bet you have like a thousand ideas

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:46am PST

probably

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:46am PST

yeah, i mean if there hasn't been any news since, i think it's dead

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:46am PST

ah thats a long time ago in movie years

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:46am PST

i doubt it's still happening

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:46am PST

but that was back in 2012

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:45am PST

i know they had some tentative plans for an animated life action hybrid film at sony

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:45am PST

haha for real!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:38am PST

I would totally google sketch up the house tough

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:38am PST

yeah like doing a thing were he lands in 2015 could be pretty cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:37am PST

people's expectations of the actors who played those characters

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:37am PST

yeah it would either have to be ALF in a completely new thing or a modernised familly

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:37am PST

and plus, then you're beholden to people'

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:37am PST

it's been done

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:37am PST

i don't really see the point in having him with the same family

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:36am PST

if i do hear back from them, i curious to see how open they are to doing something new with his setting

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:35am PST

yeah he rules

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:33am PST

but I totally get why you love the ALF character

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:32am PST

it has issues for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:28am PST

the jokes are good but it has like no 3rd act

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:28am PST

For Your Eyes Only is pretty good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 11:06am PST

wink wink nudge nudge

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:35am PST

(y)

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:35am PST

I'll watch those first

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:34am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:34am PST

http://www.audioshocker.com/2009/03/27/the-top-9-episodes-of-alf

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:34am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:32am PST

sure I have a couple of episodes downloaded soo I'll watch some and if I don't hate it I'm all in. but I won't get my hopes up :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:30am PST

nothing's happened yet... i may never hear back from them. but still, i'd love to plan for a good otucome.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:30am PST

maybe!!! i know it's not something you have a lot of experience with but is it something you might be interested in?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:23am PST

you would probably do really well writing an ALF comic

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 9:49am PST

yay! yaya nd yay

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 9:00am PST

oh and HF 4 is at the printer

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 7:40am PST

i know

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 7:40am PST

haha yeah you love rob

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 7:40am PST

I'm reaching out to the creator, Paul Fusco, and his agent about doing a new ALF series. Probably nothing will come of it, but I thought why not try?

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 7:39am PST

DUDE, GREAT ALF SKETCH!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 2:36am PST

downloading

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 2:36am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 1:39am PST

I should probably say I love Guillory's art

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 14, 2015 at 1:35am PST

fuck yeah I love rob

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 7:17pm PST

Jared compares your art to Rob Guillory AND loves your page layouts.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 7:17pm PST

http://cbpitt.blogspot.com/2015/02/189-butt-chin.html

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 4:15pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 2:51pm PST

I'd be willing to watch some

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

never seen it

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

how do you feel about ALF?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:38am PST

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:36am PST

nah

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:35am PST

i dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:35am PST

it's clearly better than the dining room, but $10 better?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:35am PST

yeah maybe next time

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:35am PST

so good tough oh well

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:35am PST

i almost got that one. but it was like $15 total and i wasn't feeling it so much that i'd pay $10 more for them

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:34am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:32am PST

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:32am PST

but yeah not right now

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:32am PST

yeah i mean if you're gonna do your own, Vista isn't that awful. just gotta hunt down coupon codes

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:32am PST

so i figured "fuck it. there's a 90% chance my cards are getting thrown away or forgotten anyway. why not get the cheapest ones?"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:32am PST

I would do my own like a drawing or my face on one side and my site and email on the other side

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:31am PST

A guy in my class had an un ironic kitten card from vista

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:31am PST

but now everyone has them

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:31am PST

i used Moo cards for a while, the ones who do those cool half-cards

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:31am PST

I can't do it man I can't do ironic cards

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:30am PST

yeah their cards are just so-so.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:30am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:19am PST

i gave up on trying to keep my shit looking fresh and current

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:18am PST

dude it's a pain in the ass

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:17am PST

I had to do a house style for myself in my first quater ever since I'm been strugling with the idea of re-designing my site.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

this also reminded me to make my blog less spammy

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

ur welcome

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

anything else would just distract from your great work, in my opinion.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

thanks man

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:12am PST

i think you've already got a great direction here

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:12am PST

rad.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:11am PST

yeah thats the plan

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:10am PST

you should totally add some of Holy F*ck too! chop it up in half pages or panel by panel if you need to... or maybe some of the webcomics!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:10am PST

i think it's terrific

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:10am PST

yeah i love what you have going on here!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:07am PST

maybe I should just be okay with it and just update the site a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

yeah that's kinda what I have right now http://danielarrudamassa.nl/comic

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

lets the content be the focus

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

i'm into really simple stuff like that

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

i like the way you did the basic image viewers for the stuff you would share with me like Rainbow Wizard

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:05am PST

yeah I know!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:05am PST

that's always tricky!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:05am PST

ohhhhhh i see...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:04am PST

mhh yeah cool I'm looking for a good way to display comics on a website

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:04am PST

and even though it's not a portfolio, i always love Neal from the AudioShocker's web design: http://nealshyam.com/

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

even if she is using templates and stuff, she's using them well

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

i guess i just like her web design

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

she's switched over to a more product-based focus lately, but i think she usual has a really classy layout going on

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:02am PST

also, a past collaborator of mine: http://catillest.com/

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:01am PST

I love rugg's site.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 11:00am PST

hmmmmmmm Jim Rugg's site is decent. ummm i'm hard pressed to think of any that are better than yours, though. you have one of my favorites.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 10:13am PST

oh btw do you know of any comic book artist that has a good portfolio website

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 10:11am PST

thanks

Nick MarinoFriday, February 13, 2015 at 10:11am PST

GREAT SKETCH!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 13, 2015 at 10:10am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

I'll just be here so you can pretty much call me whenever

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:59am PST

anytime after 5.30

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:57am PST

what time would you like to start?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:57am PST

perfect.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:56am PST

nono that would be awesome Amanda has school from 5.30 till 8.30pm that evening

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:55am PST

your night, not mine

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:55am PST

would Thursday night be too soon for you?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:55am PST

yeah that would be nice

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:55am PST

talk some more about ONS, other options, etc

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:55am PST

i'd love to find out more about what you're most excited to work on.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:54am PST

yeah thats cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:54am PST

maybe we should Skype about this stuff sometime soon.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:53am PST

ohhhhh i see what you mean.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:53am PST

especially if ONS gets picked up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:52am PST

ah ok, well I'm all scheduled in for the next couple of months so if we'd like to see if we could pitch something to IDW I would have to wait until the fall

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:49am PST

as for what you were saying about the fall, i think there was a typo in there and i'm not sure what you meant!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:49am PST

not much, but a li'l something

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:49am PST

also, a few sites ran the press release but Comic Bastards actually wrote something: http://comicbastards.com/comics/holy-fck-gets-a-sequel-holy-fcked/

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:48am PST

oh yeah I said that :p

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:47am PST

yeah, i was going off of your suggestion for waiting until Holy F*ck #2 is out, which is the end of this month. so more like March, really.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:46am PST

that was planned in for this month right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:42am PST

mhhh fuck I'll think about it, maybe when can out something together for the fall.... anyways what's the pitching plans for ONS?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:41am PST

now, not "not"

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:41am PST

yeah they don't. i think someone like boom or idw would be good for that. actually, i might have the email address of someone at idw, not that i think about it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:39am PST

yeah and they don't really do this sorta thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:38am PST

yeah that's cool. i wish i knew some awesome contacts for you at publishers! i think the only editor i sorta know is this dark horse guy

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:38am PST

but I figured I'd just put it out there "into the universe"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:36am PST

mhh yeah I'll just keep thinking about it some more maybe come up with something more specific

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:35am PST

also, if you're open to working on something like that together, i'd be glad to reach out to some publishers about us as a creative team on something

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:35am PST

not like i know much about how this works, but i think you can just email publishers and let them know you're interested.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:34am PST

I think I'll finish these two panels tonight and then I'll color the last two pages for #1 tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:34am PST

I Know!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:33am PST

yeah dude your cartoony style would fucking rock on something like that

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:33am PST

i love that page so far!!! kicking some major ass there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:33am PST

I have a serious thing that keeps going trough my mind where I really would like to do some weird licence comic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:32am PST

I'll finish this first.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:32am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:32am PST

ohhhh but you want it to actually be a story, and not just a pin up?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:31am PST

maybe :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:30am PST

what about doing some fan art?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:30am PST

exactly.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:30am PST

yup he's just misunderstood

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:29am PST

so edgy yet i can still tell that he cares

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:26am PST

I don't even care man, it could be the care bears for all I care I just want it to be fucking weird and unexpected.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:25am PST

WHICH COMIC? I feel like the more violent, the better. Like Red Lanterns or The Punisher!!! haha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 10, 2015 at 11:07am PST

I have this idea stuck in my head that I would like to draw an arc of an unexpected licence comic in my OneNightStand style

Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:41pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 9:37am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 9:05am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 8:05am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 7:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 26, 2015 at 7:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:05am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:04am PST

I decided that I love ironic dancing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:02am PST

also dance

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:02am PST

that's what food friends do.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 9:01am PST

gon' mak em some of them oven chick'n's

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:43am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:43am PST

we're food friends

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:43am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:43am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:42am PST

thats so cool

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:41am PST

hahaha yeah! this store with only the variants looks like they have 5 of each at least

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:40am PST

like they had more than 2 copies

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:39am PST

that one pic with the stacks was mind blowing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:39am PST

cool that they have it!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:38am PST

my cousin just sent me some pics of Holy F*ck at a comic shop near him... they only have the variants on the shelf! no regular covers.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:26am PST

thanks!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:25am PST

and that you did!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:23am PST

yeah it gives it a nice build up, it's a quite cinematic approach. I had to turn something mondane into something fun to look at

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:21am PST

the framing is really cool too, getting those close ups on different parts of the body gives the pacing a super interesting feel, especially since we're about to get some serious dong on the next page

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:17am PST

thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:16am PST

NICCCCE!!!!! I especially love the spank panel. That came out so good!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:13am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:12am PST

fuiiinnyyyyyy

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:12am PST

haha yeah. fuinny shit.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:08am PST

oh well someone else taught it was a bar

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:04am PST

not very smart. heh heh

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:04am PST

i think the fact that he thought Satan's Bait was a restaurant says it all.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 8:04am PST

the satan thing is what got me the most... how in the world are those elements the stereotypical traits of someone who's gay? A FANNY PACK? are gay people known for their love of fanny packs?!? hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 4:48am PST

also how is satan stereotypical

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 1:49am PST

I don't see how my art is like Ryan Dunlavey's art

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 22, 2015 at 1:42am PST

I don't know man, he clearly doesn't get the book but I think it's funny that we will still pick up #2

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 6:16pm PST

this review is so bad, almost as bad as the "this book is shit" review. however, i sent them the review copy so i guess i set us up for this!! haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 6:14pm PST

http://www.sacredandsequential.org/2015/01/22/review-of-holy-fck-1-small-chuckles-but-already-done/

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

thanks

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

okay have a good drink!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

I'm gonna go out for a drink soon soooo no page today

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

consent

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

I think the content is that our book is weird but fun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

I'm still waiting for someone to say my art is shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

It's a weird review because I couldn't tell if the reviewer liked the book. I just know he didn't hate it.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

but he seemed to dig it

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

Personally I think you art is like 20x better than what he said but I'm a little biased.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

I don't get the ScottPilgrim thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

so do I

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

But I dig what he said about your art!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

me too

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

They put the wrong cover on the article, which confused the shit out of me. Hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

yeha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

Oh yeah that's from The Beat, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 11:08am PST

I like

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 11:08am PST

Daniel Arruda Massa’s art feels right for the levity intended within the pages. The illustration feels at home in its Scott Pilgrim vibe, which makes the cover art a little deceiving. The cartoony nature of the interiors doesn’t always go well with intense action but a more realistic art style would have probably put this in another genre of comic while making some of the jokes less digestible. Visually, it just feels right.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:27am PST

k bye

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:22am PST

ok i'm cooking talk later

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:22am PST

weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:21am PST

at least, that's what Jason basically said

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:21am PST

i got the impression that the comp copies not shipped by Diamond can show up whenever.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:20am PST

nah, i haven't. in fact, i still haven't heard back about my request for copies of #2.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:20am PST

heve you gotten the copies from ALE?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:20am PST

did we talk about how Action Lab is switching over to Diamond soon for their comp copies? supposedly that means we'll start getting our comps really close to the release date

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:19am PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:19am PST

i can order you however many you want from the company. i think we get them at 50% off cover

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:19am PST

I think so

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:18am PST

i think we get 4 copies of it from ALE, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:17am PST

I will make sure to order the trade :3

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:15am PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:15am PST

i'm still debating if i'm gonna go to the shop down the street

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:15am PST

i think they have multiple warehouses and they have the printer ship the comics directly there... so one in the UK, probably.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:15am PST

wish I would have ordered one now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:15am PST

a guy got issue 1 at my local comic store

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:14am PST

yeah they are

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:14am PST

diamond is quick

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:14am PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:13am PST

naw, basically i do google searches to stay up on who's talking about Holy F*ck and now that the book is finding people who didn't seek it out themselves, i think that;s when we'll see more indifferent or negative reactions. which is fine! it's exciting, really. but also one of my first experiences with that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:13am PST

allright

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:12am PST

heh heh i would tell you if there was something specific to tell.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:10am PST

okay then don't tell me :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:10am PST

nothing in particular!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:09am PST

hahaha what happned?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:09am PST

and not to take it personally

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:09am PST

anyway, something i'm focusing on doing today is accepting that some people just won't like or understand what we're doing with Holy F*ck #1

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:08am PST

if i hadn't been digging around in there for something else i never woulda found it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:08am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:08am PST

it was especially weird because his email went into my spam folder.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:08am PST

sounds like fun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:08am PST

weird

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:07am PST

he can't read that well

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:07am PST

BTW, i got this bizarre invitation from a guy who works at the same university as the Action Lab president. He wants me to talk to his class about Holy F*ck... but it's like a multimedia class that makes a public access TV show? Very odd.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:06am PST

well you can always send him this link if he wants to read the whole thing! haha http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/holy-f-ck-color-1.pdf

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:05am PST

justique's mom is very christian. she read it and really enjoyed it.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:05am PST

I just want people to read the book

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:05am PST

I stopped giving a shit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:04am PST

nah

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 10:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 9:48am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 23, 2014 at 11:31pm PDT

Joshua Leigh RauThursday, April 16, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Saturday is kinda of free. Planning on going to a party that night. Sunday we are having a housewarming party at my place for my girlfriend who moved in not too long ago.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 8:00pm PDT

san jose convention center. schedule for sat and sun is basically to go to the comic convention! hahaha. it's not really that planned out. what about you?

Joshua Leigh RauThursday, April 16, 2015 at 7:47pm PDT

you might be fine up till... 3? it is friday though. where is your event and whats your schedule like for the next few days?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

but yeah that sounds like a good plan. i think hank and i are either planning to avoid traffic and get out of san fran (and on our way to santa clara) before 2 to avoid traffic. or, otherwise, just hang in the city till after rush hour.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 16, 2015 at 7:17pm PDT

that's a great question to which i have no answer! hahaha

Joshua Leigh RauThursday, April 16, 2015 at 6:56pm PDT

ok, cool. I'm at 763 treat ave in the mission district. We could grab lunch somewhere around the neighborhood. What are your goals for tomorrow?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Joshua Leigh RauMonday, March 16, 2015 at 8:27am PDT

Of course! Hank, formerly known as Pete is welcome

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:04pm PDT

nice, if you're okay with it, i'd like to invite my friend i'm staying with, Hank. he's a chill dude. you may have met him, actually. he lived down the hall from me freshman year when you visited! but his name was Pete then (it's a little confusing, i know)

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:02pm PDT

Yeah, can do that!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

i already told you that

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

cool, what about something like breakfast on friday the 17th? i get into san fran at 9:30.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:49pm PDT

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:47pm PDT

I work from home, and I wouldn't even call it work. Totally down to hang out.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:40pm PDT

yeah my buddy lives in santa clara, so chances of us hanging in san fran on saturday or sunday are pretty low. but fri apr 17 and mon apr 20 i'll be in san fran. i get in at like 9:30 am fri and leave around 1 pm on mon. do you work a 9-5 or is your schedule more flexible than that?

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:33pm PDT

I'm in the middle of the mission. San Jose is an hour away by train so you may not be here all that offer but if you are around it would be cool to see you

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 5:31pm PDT

thanks! that would be cool. what neighborhood are you in?

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, March 15, 2015 at 4:52pm PDT

I should be around that weekend and may be having a party at my place that you would be welcome at.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

anyway, what's your schedule like that weekend?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

they're holding out on you, man!!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Hell yeah! I would love to see you Nick! I ordered Holy Fuck at the local shop but they still haven't called me to tell me its in. Im gonna have to go investigate.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:50am PST

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:37am PST

Sorry Nick, I require a hand delivery only. Just kidding buddy, I'm excited for you.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:12am PST

thanks for asking!

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:11am PST

San Fran strikes me as the kind of city where a lot of comic shops will have it! i don't get order info for specific stores, so i don't know for sure where you should go... but i'm partial to Isotope. :D

Joshua Leigh RauSunday, January 18, 2015 at 9:48am PST

Will I be able to buy Holu F*ck in San Francisco or should I order it?

Joshua Leigh RauTuesday, August 19, 2014 at 11:35am PDT

Please do buddy!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 19, 2014 at 7:17am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 16, 2016 at 11:45am PDT

V Ken MarionSunday, May 15, 2016 at 7:04pm PDT

I've been swamped bro, had the flu last week and getting caught up on work and emails/messages has been a slog

V Ken MarionSunday, May 15, 2016 at 7:04pm PDT

did you send in the application yet?

V Ken MarionSunday, May 15, 2016 at 7:03pm PDT

DUDE!!! I am so sorry I just saw this

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

Yo! So I'm getting my application together for that DC Writing Workshop and... recommendation letters. I know you're just getting started over there but I'm such a huge fan of your work and I have mad respect for your hustle! Do you feel like you could, in good conscience, recommend me for the program? No pressure if you can't! I'll totally understand. But I'd be honored if you were down for it. If you are, I could create a skeleton letter so all you'd have to do is fill in your thoughts. Thanks :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:02pm PDT

I got my SDCC pro pass but haven't made any plans for it yet. How bout you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

I have no idea what it would be beyond the 3 min short that we pitched them!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

So that would be the joke, ya know.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

Like we would always allude to it but you never see him do it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

It's super boring and we're debating on if we would ever want to even show it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:00pm PDT

Rainbow Wizard's power is that he just makes rainbows.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 2:00pm PDT

I'm so happy to hear DC is going great! AWESOME!!

V Ken MarionWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:56pm PDT

sdcc

V Ken MarionWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:56pm PDT

V Ken MarionWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:56pm PDT

DC is awesome man, I have no gripes at all, they are treating me great, and everyone I have worked with so far has been really awesome

V Ken MarionWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:43pm PDT

And YESSSS this Talent Workshop is the first step to fulfilling my Marion/Marino dream. THERE WILL BE SO MANY TYPOS IN THE REVIEWS OF OUR BOOK! They won't be able to keep shit straight and it will be awesome.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:41pm PDT

Oooooooooooooooooo next to last issue! Awesome progress. How's the DC system treating you? Is it a smooth fit so far?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:39pm PDT

they're doing a Corps movie instead of just one Lantern. I think that'll really emphasize what's special about that concept.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:39pm PDT

I love that they

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:38pm PDT

Thanks!! I hope the Nickelodeon thing works out but if nothing else if was a great learning experience. We pitched an original story based on a character Daniel's been developing for a couple of years. We made a pitch comic too! It's super short, 6 pages if ya wanna peep it. No pressure, though! https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsMW5EWlFKejgzdm8

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:32pm PDT

and thats awesome your applying for that DC writers workshop! Is there a Marino/Marion book on the horizon?!!!!???!!

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:31pm PDT

and thanks for the kind words about Bloodlines man, I just wrapped issue 4 and am about ti dive ito issue 5

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:31pm PDT

perfect world- Gree Lantern Corps is Hal and John as a duo buddy cop lead team in the vein of Leathal Weapon, and Justice league has Kyle

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:30pm PDT

haha if Kule is in that green lantern corps movie I will shit a brick that would be so dope

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:30pm PDT

what project did you pitch them? was it one of your books, or an original concept?

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

Dude best of Luck! Animation is a crazy awesome business so Im praying your pitch gets picked up, I think you guys would kill it at Nick

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:36pm PDT

ohhhh and i'm gonna apply to that DC Writers Workshop thing.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:30pm PDT

how's Bloodlines going? i'm stoked for more!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:29pm PDT

the Nick pitch was fun!!! i have NO idea if they liked it or not... which i would normally say is a sign they don't like it but i dunno shit about animation producers.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

oooooooo WildCATS movie would be sick!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

yo did you hear about the GL Corps movie rumor? Hal, John, and Kyle?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

no worries! it takes you however long it takes you!

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 1:29pm PDT

also, I'm really bad with fb communication, sorry its taken me this long to hit you back

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 1:28pm PDT

V Ken MarionTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 1:28pm PDT

Dude!!!! Congrats on the Nicleodeon pitch! how did it go???

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:23pm PDT

i hear ya on the "classic" versions in the movies. what would be your dream DC flick?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:23pm PDT

we switched things up a bit from the CnC version you read, adding a ton of silver age-ish narration to it. it's fun.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:22pm PDT

Cougar and Cub is good, thanks. the pitch is over at IDW right now and we'll find out if they want to move forward with it in three weeks.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:21pm PDT

can't wait to pick up BL #1 next week. did you already talk to them about doing a another project post-Bloodlines?

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

hows cougar and cub?

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

and bloodlines is rocking and rolling, I'm trying to keep the 90's flair but with the modern story

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

modern but classic if that makes sense?

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

like the stuff I grew up with haha

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:09pm PDT

I am at the point now where I just want the classic DC universe

V Ken MarionFriday, April 1, 2016 at 12:09pm PDT

haha yeah man

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:47pm PDT

hows Bloodlines?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:47pm PDT

So I skipped it.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:47pm PDT

i was thinking about going until the reviews came out and they talked about how miserable it is, like not fun or happy at all.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:46pm PDT

Whaaataaaaaaaaaatttt! I mean, I'm not surprised you didn't like it because I totally see what you're talking about but I feel like that's the first flick we ever talked about that you actively disliked.

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:54pm PDT

I just felt the characters were waaaaay off model and didn't act heroic. but what do i know? its making money and I'm super happy for wb and DC that its doing great

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:54pm PDT

but I flat out did not like it at all

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:53pm PDT

like seriously pumped

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:53pm PDT

i was really pumped for the movie

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:53pm PDT

ok soory i just saw this

V Ken MarionThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:53pm PDT

dude

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 6:21pm PST

yo! are you stoked for BvS? i normally wouldn't give a shit but i'm loving everything in these trailers!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 5:33pm PST

haha but i say this now... who knows, i could totally change my mind next month.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 5:33pm PST

i hear ya. i dunno about you, but when i do a convention it takes me days to get back into the swing of things. i could use a break from that process of getting ready for the show, being there the whole time, and then spending days trying to get back to work!

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 5:06pm PST

yeah that had to be frustrating doing it through action lab

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 5:06pm PST

Im taking a break from cons this year too, maybe do c2e2 and then def the NY ones, but traveling is a real bitch, especially with deadline sand what not

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 5:05pm PST

I hear that man

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:52pm PST

how about you? what cons you got planned?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:52pm PST

ooops sent too soon, anyway you get the idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:52pm PST

it's a pain in the butt to order everything through action lab and wait for it to (maybeshow up (maybe) on time and then just break even.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:51pm PST

i'm taking a break from cons for a bit... i'll get a pro pass and hang at some west coast shows for the first half of next year, but no exhibiting planned right now.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:50pm PST

sweet! 20 pgs per issue or more?

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:23pm PST

you doing any cons coming up?

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:22pm PST

yep! six

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:10pm PST

did you sign on for a decent chunk of issues?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:10pm PST

i'm psyched to learn more!!! can't wait until it's revealed.

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:05pm PST

as soon as i can talk about it, ill let you know, like i said i think you'll get a kick out of it

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:05pm PST

dude, actuaklly, you of all people i think will really appreciate the concept

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:04pm PST

yep

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:03pm PST

kickass. you on a monthly schedule with it?

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:03pm PST

hows everything else going with you?

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:03pm PST

and yeah going well, I'm stoked about it

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:03pm PST

Def dude! I really dug the first one!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:02pm PST

for sure, i'll definitely share Cougar and Cub with you when it's ready. thanks for asking!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:02pm PST

niiiiiice, i thought so! going well?

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:01pm PST

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:01pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:01pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 3:00pm PST

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 2:59pm PST

V Ken MarionTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 2:59pm PST

Hey dude!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 21, 2015 at 7:15am PDT

Cougar and Cub changed a lot from what it was originally, yeah. i'd like to end up with someone larger than Action Lab, and frankly (just between us) a company who actually has their shit together. but we'll see!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 21, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

WHOA! nice, congrats, secrets are fun. when will it get announced do ya think?

V Ken MarionWednesday, October 21, 2015 at 6:34am PDT

V Ken MarionWednesday, October 21, 2015 at 6:34am PDT

Yeah man its awesome, are you doing it through action lab again? I know you said at sdcc that you were thinking about changing it up

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 9:35pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 9:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 26, 2014 at 8:37am PDT

that's cool that you guys met! i was gonna say something to both of you since i knew you'd be at Twin Tiers, but i figured the show was small enough that you'd probably end up talking anyway.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 26, 2014 at 8:36am PDT

Hello

CW Cooke, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 10:21am PDT

Thanks :D

CW CookeWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 10:15am PDT

I'm looking forward to your book quite a bit too

CW CookeWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 10:14am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 9:50am PDT

Looking forward to learning more about it. :D

CW CookeWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 9:16am PDT

Ok. I can put you down as a potential. I'll get to work on other stuff to show you

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 9:14am PDT

so Daniel and i discussed it, and our consensus is that we're open to the idea but we'd like things to be a bit more tangible and specific to officially say yes.

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 5:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:51pm PDT

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:49pm PDT

thanks for getting back so quick!

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:49pm PDT

no problem

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:48pm PDT

Innntteresting! Let me check in with my co-creator, Daniel, and we'll discuss it. Thanks for dropping me a line!

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:35pm PDT

We would be respectful and careful not to screw anything up for you. Just wanted to get in touch about it up front. Thanks

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:35pm PDT

The pitch involves characters who have the ability to jump through time and universes. I was contacting Action Lab creators to see if they'd allow us to jump in and out of their worlds

CW CookeTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 4:34pm PDT

Thanks for friending back. I'm excited for Holy F*ck and am putting together a pitch for Action Lab with a couple other guys and had a question: Not looking for donations or anything like that

Edward Harris, Nick Marino

Nick MarinoFriday, October 3, 2014 at 1:09pm PDT

Edward HarrisFriday, October 3, 2014 at 12:38pm PDT

good deal. Depending on how many you have, I know a few shops in the PHX metro area that may be interested in resale opportunities. I can always put you in touch with those folks too. These days it's not about what you know but who. :)

Nick MarinoFriday, October 3, 2014 at 12:37pm PDT

thanks ed!!! i've got you at the top of the wish list for the NYCC exclusive. i'll drop you a line a day or two after the show.

Jeff GriffithTuesday, October 21, 2014 at 1:30pm PDT

Hey Nick! I still want the issue, but man, I'm probably not going to be able to send the funds until Thursday... I will have some cash in the paypal account then. If you need to send it to someone else, I'll totally understand man. If not, I'll get it from you later this week. Either way, I'll totally understand, dude. Thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 21, 2014 at 11:52am PDT

Hi Jeff -- Following up on this. I'd like to mail everything out tomorrow, so if you want the comic I'd appreciate it if you could paypal me soon! Otherwise, let me know you're going to pass because I have other people who've asked about the issue. Thanks!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 17, 2014 at 3:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:05pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 4:43pm PST

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

K I'll wait to see when the public announcement comes for panels

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

Haahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

but i dunno if that applies to all panels! maybe our page is a fluke

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

it's still working for me

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

lemme test it on another device!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

when i looked at the link to the page for our panel in a private / incognito tab where i wasn't signed in, the page still showed up

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

K if not publicly

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

i'm not sure

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

Like an attendee or someone

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

That's what I got too! But I believe that if one isn't signed in, then the person gets a blank page

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

but the only way i was able to get the link was through the "My Panel Submissions" tab when i'm logged in

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

http://comikazeexpo.com/programs/cali-creator-owned-comics-action-lab

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

did you pitch them panels?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i don't think they're posted on the website publicly.

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

LOL

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Jessica TseangTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

HI Nick! Are panels up for Stan Lee's Comikaze?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

Jessica TseangFriday, May 29, 2015 at 7:50pm PDT

HI Nick! My friend is having a panel (in which I'm moderating) about religions and comics. The hilarious side of it. So it's not a christian based panel at all. He'll actually be covering your comic Holy F*ck, and I said that I actually know you! So I figured that I asked if you would be interested in being on it! It's on Thursday from 2-3 pm

Jessica TseangFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

yes!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 11:01pm PDT

geez, that's messed up!!!! has it always been like that?

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:57pm PDT

then.....what if your guests are out of town? or out of the state? country? by t hen, hotels are out, those ppl are screwed

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:57pm PDT

so that leaves...everyone who isn't approved, just in the wind. At least...give them a rejected template

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:57pm PDT

they only email you IF you are approved

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:56pm PDT

like

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:56pm PDT

argh so many rant thoughts

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:56pm PDT

I KNOW RIGHT?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

wow. thats so close to the show!!

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

Nope, they won't let us know unitl 3 weeks before the con!!!

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

That's so great that things worked out so fast!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 4:25pm PDT

oh totally unrelated, did you find out about your SDCC panels?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 3:30pm PDT

Thanks for the suggestion! I wasn't familiar with Rafael's work until today. It's cool! But ya know what? The problem sorted itself out. My collaborator and regular series artist is going to do it. This all happened within the past day, so it's been kind of a crazy change of plans. He just sent me his cover, in fact!

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

I'm also thinking of artists that would be willing to do something with a title called holy f*ck Lolololol

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

No problem! I have not told anyone

Jessica TseangThursday, May 7, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

Hii!!! I'm still thinking on artists. What about Raffael Naverro?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 1, 2015 at 12:28am PDT

thanks! we're looking to jump into it ASAP. the sooner it's done, the sooner we can get the issue into the Previews catalog! but with that said, please don't tell any artists about the opportunity until you and i talk about it first. i feel like you know that's a given, but i'd rather say something than say nothing and have a miscommunication between us. i appreciate your input!

Jessica TseangThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:16pm PDT

hmmm, let me go through my buddy list and get back to you this weekend. How soon would you like to get this rolling

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:07pm PDT

I'm open to anything at the moment... mostly curious what you think would match well with what you know of the comic book.

Jessica TseangThursday, April 30, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

hmm, whatkind of variant look would you want?

Jessica TseangThursday, April 30, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

hii NIck!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

You know so many cool comic creators and I was wondering if you have any recommendations for someone who might be a great choice for a Holy F*cked variant.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

We're working on the Holy F*ck sequel right now, Holy F*cked, and looking for variant cover artists.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Hiiii!!! So I got a question for ya...

Nick MarinoSunday, April 5, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

I hope it went well!!! I got home and crashed last night. I'll text you when I get to the show today... 11ish...

Jessica TseangSaturday, April 4, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

Jessica TseangFriday, April 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

Jessica TseangFriday, April 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

Jessica TseangFriday, April 3, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

Jessica TseangFriday, April 3, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

anyway, at least the panelists are covered now!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

i put together a few images for Jamal too just in case he's too busy to send in his own

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

for my stuff with Holy F*ck, i'll let you decide if you'd rather use the censored or uncensored versions. i'm fine with either. just thought i'd give you options.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

Jessica TseangThursday, April 2, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

Maybe can google image ?

Jessica TseangThursday, April 2, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

Sweet thank you!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:33pm PDT

you might wanna shoot Jamal a message here on FB about cover art for his books, Princeless, and Vamplets. he has access to all of that stuff that i don't! but i can get stuff some from the individual creators on the panel.

Jessica TseangThursday, April 2, 2015 at 3:43pm PDT

Thank you thank you!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 3:39pm PDT

okay, cool. i'm glad to help however i can with the images. will you have a laptop at the panel?

Jessica TseangWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

questions, I can type up in a bit, they are general, like how did you become part of Action Lab Entertainment, tell us a little bit about your book, what is the future of ALE, and what is like knowing that your company is associated with young female readers

Jessica TseangWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

covers of the comics that you guys produce would be great! I need to put one together, but I'm literally up to my neckwith stuff to do

Jessica TseangWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

Ohhhh visuallllssss

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 1, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Jessica TseangSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

GOd i hope so

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

i feel like worst case scenario is that they realize they fucked up and then they do something extra special for him!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

i would think

Nick MarinoSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

i think they'll understand the gravity of the situation. certainly doesn't hurt to add that he's had a hell of year in there

Jessica TseangSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

This isn't some filler panel :( CRAP

Jessica TseangSunday, March 29, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

Jessica TseangThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:36pm PDT

no just any one downtown, not shuttle.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:35pm PDT

i'm curious because we were both in there by 9:03!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:34pm PDT

did you check any of the other boxes, like "put me into any hotel downtown" or "any hotel on the shuttle"?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:33pm PDT

WAIT WAAAAAAT

Jessica TseangThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

I didn't think that I would

Jessica TseangThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

but that's okay

Jessica TseangThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

OHhh!1 It said that I didn't get into any LOL

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:29pm PDT

Jessica TseangThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:47pm PDT

I finished right at 9:03. I hope that's soon enough! Took forever just for the page to load.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:47pm PDT

I also checked the box that was like "Give me any hotel on the shuttle route if I can't get these hotels."

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

Granted I know like nothing about those hotels hahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 5, 2015 at 11:25pm PST

yes they do

Jessica TseangThursday, March 5, 2015 at 11:46am PST

:D I'm sure he'll be delighted . Those three jobs often get overlooked

Nick MarinoThursday, March 5, 2015 at 8:23am PST

Yeah I'll tell him at the show.

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 10:19pm PST

Yes! He's a great letterer! You must tell him somehow

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:58pm PST

great lineup for that trio panel. i especially love lanphear's lettering.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:58pm PST

ooooooo elite! that sounds fancy :D

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

IT'll be at the elite ballroom in the Marriot

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

all your panels sound super cool

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

yup yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

i don't need to verify this year and i figured i'd just be easier to keep the press badge

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

you never know when shit hits the fan

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

yayy! The more badges the better

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

ya know what? i still have a press badge as a holdover from when i podcasted like crazy.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

hahaha nice

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

Thank you for the link to his facebook page

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

Yes, he JUST got back to me! He's fast!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

DeWayne Feenstra might need a badge, though. although i think he's looking into getting a pro badge

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

Okay, no probs! I think you might get two badges: pro and panelist :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

and she's the only one i'd bring.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

't really into comic cons

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

yeah, i've got a badge! thanks for asking. no guests, thanks! my fiancee (Justique) isn

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:13pm PST

I want to make sure that my talents are doing good: do you have a badge already, and do you need any guests covered?

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:12pm PST

Pop culture and food collide! I'll have Chef Duff Goldman from Ace of cakes/foodnetwork

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:12pm PST

and also

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:12pm PST

yours for ALE

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:12pm PST

I will be doing a spotlight on inkers, letterers, and colorists (the forgotten trio), a tribute to stan sakai of usagi yojimbo

Jessica TseangWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:11pm PST

Yes! You don't wan tpeople to steal your art stuff at the artist alley's

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

what other panels are you doing at wondercon?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

yeah for sure. i find artist alley exhibiting to be really stressful, so i think i'm just gonna walk around or do shows with publisher tables for the next while. i hate lugging stuff back and forth to the show too!

Jessica TseangTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

Ohhh!! Sometimes just going and walking around is fun :)

Jessica TseangTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

Ohhh thank you !!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:52am PST

i sent DeWayne a link to your profile and told him about that panel. just wanted to let you know!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:28pm PST

How was your weekend?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:27pm PST

I'm glad we can get DeWayne in on this! Here's his profile: https://www.facebook.com/dewayne.feenstra

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:27pm PST

No, we didn't have a company table. I just went to walk around and hang out.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:26pm PST

LBCE was great! Thanks for asking :D

Jessica TseangSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:07pm PST

did ALE have a table at LBCE?

Jessica TseangSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:07pm PST

Should I look him up via facebook?

Jessica TseangSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:07pm PST

OF course! That sounds great!

Jessica TseangSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:07pm PST

OMG really?! WOW!!

Jessica TseangSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:07pm PST

Hii NIck! HOw was LBCE?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 1, 2015 at 6:00pm PST

Hi!!! So guess what? At the Long Beach Comic Expo this weekend, I discovered another Action Lab creator who lives here! His name is DeWayne Feenstra. He writes Midnight Tiger and the newly announced Aero-Girl for ALE. Can we add him to the panel?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

oh cool! i'll remember that. thanks so much for your input.

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

Good for safety at night

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

Yup! It's great! It's 24 hours and comes very often

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:54pm PST

i'm guessing you've taken the shuttle before, right? how's that?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:54pm PST

alright, good to know!!!

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

The system finds you a hotel easier

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

The trick is to write that you are going as one person

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

I think it's good to try

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:49pm PST

WHOA! i'm debating if i wanna get a room through the early bird hotel sale... mostly mission valley stuff. what's your sage advice on this?

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:41pm PST

Been going every year since I was 13 :D

Jessica TseangFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:41pm PST

Yes I sure did!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 7:38pm PST

Did you go to SDCC last year?

Jessica TseangMonday, February 23, 2015 at 12:19am PST

Hi Nick! Thank you somuch! I think I got a message from James!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PST

and here's Dan Mendoza: https://www.facebook.com/soda.popinski247

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:21pm PST

here's James F Wright's profile: https://www.facebook.com/chuck.spear

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PST

k, cool! i'm looking forward to it :D

Jessica TseangSunday, February 22, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

But they can change it anytime

Jessica TseangSunday, February 22, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

Yes! I am moderating and as far as I know : it's Sunday of the con at 12-1pm room 209

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 9:42am PST

is there a deadline for when they'll tell you the day and time of the panel? and you're moderating it, right?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 9:42am PST

whoooooa! cool. thanks :D

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 6:52pm PST

they are good! We are a go for Action Lab Entertainment as far as I know!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:45pm PST

oh hey i've been wondering all day... how'd your panel proposals turn out??? good, i hope!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:10pm PST

"well, home is nice!"

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:10pm PST

"arcade or no arcade"? hmmmmmmmmmm

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:10pm PST

that's pretty much the decision making process i got through every day! hahaa

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:09pm PST

I think I'm gonna stay at home , arcade another day!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 5:09pm PST

Yes, it's a weird dichotomy :0(

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 4:39pm PST

my favorite joints are the half-dead arcades that have barely updated their machines since the 90s... sort of a weird happy and sad balance of history, broken dreams, and future potential. i love that complexity.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 4:38pm PST

at the same time, i don't really drink anymore so bars aren't my scene and so i've tended to avoid barcades because of that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 4:37pm PST

seriously, it is. now all we have down here is a Chuck E Cheese. and that's fine, those are fun and all. but it's also kind of awkward going there since it's really a kid-focused kinda place.

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 4:03pm PST

Ohhhhhn noooo!! Arcades is a dying art :0(

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

as for arcades, we used to have one here in the LBC, it was real sweet too! closed down recently though. haven't been to a good one since.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

i just looked at a few pics and i was really impressed!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

or like "best bookstores in the US"

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

It's often listed on places like "best bookstores in the world"

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

Yes it is!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

It's ok, my family raised me here and I still need to know more!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

wow.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

dude that bookstore looks amazing!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

I know so little about the LA area, it's kinda sad really

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

I'm looking up these places!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

Also I was thinking maybe tomorrow, the last bookstore

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

As in 1982 in like downtown la

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

And a large one with drinks called Barcade 82

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Lolololo it's ok!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

to be grammatically correct, what arcade should have been followed by a question mark. i'm still working on this whole writer thing.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

whooooooooooa! what arcade!!!! you just said the magic word!!!!!!!!!!!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

Sooo I guess I will celebrate this coming week lol

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

It's actually Chinese New Year but everything is so crowded

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

i have mild post office PTSD. i don't say that lightly.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

OMG for real the post office is the worst.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

but seriously no i don't have any plans except for lettering some comics. and writing some comics. and pitching some comics. okay, so i guess i have comics plans but that's it!

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Sighs

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Then was asked like "oh sorry your id doesn't match your adddress"

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

OMG I did that this week!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

if by "fun plans" you mean going to the post office to pick up packages that aren't there, sorry but i already did that once today!!! haha

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

You have fun plans for Saturday?

Jessica TseangSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

No worries! Thank you so much !

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:04pm PST

oh maybe i forgot to tell you last night amidst the other 900 messages i sent! Ray-Anthony is a definite no.

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:38pm PST

it's alright, keep me updated if Dave and Jason or Ray-Anthony ever get back to you! It's still a few weeks away, perhaps Wonder Con can squeeze in names still

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:37pm PST

Aww, please tell Emily thank you for me anyways!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:23pm PST

i'm still waiting on Dave, Jason, and Anna. chances of me hearing from Dave and Jason now are pretty low. Anna's a wild card, though! haha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:22pm PST

Emily Martin got back to me and she won't be there either.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 10:21pm PST

no new names for you yet :(

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 5:30pm PST

no problem!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 5:25pm PST

or if the credit isn't related to a specific series, then just "comic book writer". thanks for asking!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 5:25pm PST

"writer of Holy F*ck" is fine. that's probably the easiest way to say it.

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 5:19pm PST

What would you like to be credited as?

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

:D Thank you for the invaluable help

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

thanks and glad to help

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:46pm PST

NIIICCCKKK

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:46pm PST

Right, Thank you so much! You guys have so many amazing talents involved with ALE, that I was like... WHERE DO I START?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

i was relatively thorough-ish, so i think for the most part i've reached out to the local ones or the ones who travel a lot

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

damn

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

Amanda is in Baltimore

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

i love hunting for stuff like this

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

no prob bob

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

thank you so much!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

the artist, Amanda Coronado, i looked her up earlier today and i forget when she's at.... lemme check again

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

i emailed the Vamplets co-writer, Dave Dwonch, and i was gonna ask him about Gayle if he got back to me.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

but i couldn't find good contact info for her :(

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

she could go either way. it's not far but who knows?

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

I really wanted JEremy as well (due to the little girls in the audience and Princeless) but he's out of state

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

ohhhhhhh

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

yes! That would be awesome! Thank you! AWWW katie cook is super dope! HOpe to catch her nex time

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

Gayle, the creator and co-writer, is in Sedona, AZ.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

i emailed Katie Cook too... she won't be at the show. i want to get some of Action Lab's awesome female creators into the mix!

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

Where are all the people of Vamplets located?

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

oh yeah, I understand!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

yeah, i think Jason Martin as a maybe is good. he can be slow to reply to emails so i may not know for days.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

the only other local-ish person i haven't reached out to yet is Mike Hunau, who wrote a Danger Zone mini called Crimson Society. i don't know how to email him and his social media accounts haven't been updated much lately so i don't even know if he's checking them!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

yeah, James is 100% down. same with Dan Mendoza.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

i emailed Emily Martin (artist of Princeless) and Anna Lencioni (she did an issue of Zombie Tramp recently), but nothing back from them yet.

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

I'll email him later

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

he was one that was good to go right?

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

yayyy!

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

so I'll put in you and other names of the lovely people that you named. I think I put down jason martin as a maybe?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

okay, so James F Wright's email is kagehito@gmail.com, just in case you need it

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

YES! I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS PANEL

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

noooo!! they are important for a reason

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

nice. i'm looking forward to seeing how it all comes together!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

those are exactly the kind of calls i'm trying to miss!!! hahaha

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

I'm typing up panel descriptions now, but I'll submit by midnight :D

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

Thank you for asking for me! It's hard trying to track them down

Jessica TseangFriday, February 20, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

awwwwww!!! You should answer the phone! You might miss like an important call! Or something from family!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 8:10am PST

yeah that's insanely fast! damn, you need at least a week for something like that. shiiiit. ALE people are kinda tricky to get a hold of so i don't blame ya. i'm glad to help out. i'll ask around a bit more... i don't know too many other west coast ALE creators except Emily Martin. i'll try to get in contact with her today. (though i guess it's a big show so non-west coasters might be going too.) i'm 484-798-7753 though i barely ever answer my phone and i think it's dead now! haha (i'll be good about picking up on WonderCon weekend, though ;) ) i'm pretty sure you have my email but to make life easier it's nickmarino@gmail.com. Dan Mendoza's email is daninashell@gmail.com. i'll ask James F Wright for his and shoot it over to ya.

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:03pm PST

and my email is jessica.the.comic.book.girl@gmail.com but I'm online all the time

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:03pm PST

my number is 626 782 8965

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:02pm PST

and I was like " wtf, that's so fast"

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:02pm PST

Wonder Con contacted me on Tuesday....and was like "oh and turn in the names of the ppl by Friday at midnight"

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:02pm PST

if you could help me, since you also...know the talent at ALE better than I do, that'd be great!

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:02pm PST

and even he was like " hmm. I have no idea who's going"

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:02pm PST

I had NO idea how to contact ALE people and yes, the ONLY person I know is Jamaal

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 10:01pm PST

Yesss!!! Thank you SO MUCH FOR ASKING THEM

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:52pm PST

the message avalanche continues! haha!! James F Wright (writer of Nutmeg) has an artist alley table and he's down for the panel.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:36pm PST

oh shit i just looked at the Special Guests list... Jamal Igle will be at WonderCon. i'm sure he'd be down.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

Jason Martin (publisher of the Action Lab: Danger Zone imprint and dude who does different stuff for a bunch of Action Lab comics) might be trying to get a table, from what i hear. dunno if he's had any luck yet, though.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

Ray won't be there this year.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

Mendoza will be there and yes, he's down.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

there are a few other Cali people who might be doing WonderCon. i'll ask. i was curious anyway.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:14pm PST

Ray-Anthony Height (Midnight Tiger) will probably be at the show. he's normally there.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:14pm PST

i don't know if Dan Mendoza (Zombie Tramp) has a table there, but he's here with me in the Long Beach area and i'm sure he'd be down with that.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:13pm PST

thanks for asking :D

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:13pm PST

a panel would fun, yeah! i'd love to.

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

also, do you know any one else from ALE that will be at Wonder Con other than you?

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

Would you be interested in being on a panel for Action Lab Entertainment for Wonder Con?

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

I won't be able to go to LBCC but yes for Wonder Con :D

Jessica TseangThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 6:26pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 6:24pm PST

Jessica TseangWednesday, February 18, 2015 at 5:05pm PST

Jessica ThecomicbookgirlThursday, October 16, 2014 at 5:33pm PDT

Jessica ThecomicbookgirlThursday, October 16, 2014 at 5:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, December 31, 2015 at 10:01am PST

i'm a total n00b and have no idea how facebook messenger works!

Dan MendozaThursday, December 31, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, December 31, 2015 at 9:46am PST

Yeah, I'm interested! Thanks for asking. Who's running it?

Dan MendozaWednesday, December 30, 2015 at 4:48pm PST

Hey Nick. You want to be on a new show with me where they interview comic book peeps? Its january 9th Not sure what time yet. Its a new interweb streaming show

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

cool, i wish i was gonna be there to hang with you cuz we'd have a good time but i've got a butt load of family and friends in NYC and it's just too stressful trying to do the con and do family stuff on the same weekend. maybe next year.

Dan MendozaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Yup.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:25am PDT

nope, sitting this one out. i know you're going, though. all four days?

Dan MendozaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 9:33pm PDT

Are you going to nycc next week?

Dan MendozaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

Yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

oh then fuck yeah i'm all good with that

Dan MendozaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

That's it they said

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

I kinda got burned at SDCC this year by saying yes to a panel without knowing all of the panelists and the full topic first. Trying not to repeat that! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

My buddy Kevin from Man vs. Rock invited me to join in and I pretty much said yes except I wanted to know who else was gonna be on it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:19pm PDT

I think so, yeah. Do you know who else they invited?

Dan MendozaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 6:13pm PDT

Hey. Are you down for the yuan twins panel? I told them id do it

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 29, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

oh cool i'm glad that all worked out. my guess is Dave's running the instagram too.

Dan MendozaSaturday, August 29, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

Yeah Dave emailed me about it last night. I gave him the hcf file and he said he would fix the teen witch problem. Whos running the action lab instagram. Its horrible. Only like 7 posts. I started tagging them on everything i post to see if the repost, but no. So im not gunna tag them anymore

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 29, 2015 at 2:00am PDT

i've been helping out with the Danger Zone twitter lately... i'm not actually sending out the promotional tweets. just going through and replying to people and favoriting stuff. i saw your message about HCF and your tweet about it not being Teen Witch. to be honest, i'm not sure who's sending out the tweets nowadays... it might be Dave Dwonch, Jim Dietz, or both. but i know Dave is kind of managing all of that a bit more than before so my suggestion is to email him about that stuff cause it'll probably get fixed quickest that way!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

cool thanks!

Dan MendozaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

Pip printing. Sante fe springs. Ask for brian. I send him the files through dropbox. Good dude. Its about 93 cents a print

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

who do you use for prints?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

cool. thanks for all the info!

Dan MendozaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

Nope. Dont know his name. But he already bought the sdcc vamp blade sketch cover off of jason

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

He's tweeting me about extra copies of the Holy F*cked SDCC variant and I was just wondering what his deal is. Also, I was wondering if I talked to him before. Do you know his name?

Dan MendozaFriday, July 24, 2015 at 9:48pm PDT

Kind of. Ive never met him but he works like out in the desert region for edison. Why whats up?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 24, 2015 at 9:47pm PDT

do you know who runs the ZT fanpage twitter?

Dan MendozaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 9:33pm PDT

Kool thanks

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 9:23pm PDT

I'll post it on the DZ tumblr

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 9:23pm PDT

Yeah for sure

Dan MendozaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

Hey posted a zombie tramp contest on instagram. Can you pass it along?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 8:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Yeah. Im down for that. But i cant go to the lbcc one. Ill be on vacation in Seattle

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

i think i asked you this already but i forget... would you be down for something like this at Comikaze too?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

LBCC said yes to the panel. i should be getting an official confirmation later this week.

Dan MendozaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 5:06pm PDT

Yup. Thats what me and jason said

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:52pm PDT

*for them

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:52pm PDT

woulda been nice with them to at least check in with Action Lab first

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:51pm PDT

seriously though WTF

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:51pm PDT

hahaha "and a bod that quit"??? is it supposed to be a pun because she's dead?!?

Dan MendozaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:34pm PDT

Check this out. So many typos. And a big misportrayal of my book. Even the image is old. Its from before action lab. This crap is actually printed in previews. Guess they dont feel the need to have proof readers. Or the need to check with action lab on fact checking

Dan MendozaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

Dan MendozaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

Looks good man

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:19pm PDT

But anyway, yeah, sounds good for the parking and I'll chip in.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:18pm PDT

Hahahaha! Yeah, I was gonna write "a cab or one of those car services" but cab was just quicker :D

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:45pm PDT

But taking a chance on murder. Lol

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:45pm PDT

Take uber to my house. Its cheaper

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:44pm PDT

Have no idea. Not worried about it. Im just gunna park near the show and leave my clothes in the car til i go to the hotel at night

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:19pm PDT

Jason said something about you guys staying at the Hampton Inn... do you know which one?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 6:19pm PDT

Sounds good. We'll catch a cab over your way and be there before 7.

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

7025 Lisa Ln, Westminster, CA 92683

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 5:13pm PDT

Im thinking we leave at 7am on Thursday. I drive slow.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 4:39pm PDT

Sure, we can make that happen. What time would you like to leave and what's your address?

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 4:00pm PDT

Of course. You gunna meet me at my house right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 3:36pm PDT

yo so for SDCC... you still down to have Daniel and I ride with you?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:24pm PDT

Gotcha.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

The panel I'm on is for a podcast that doesn't even exist. I dunno how they got the panel in the first place.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

That's cool! I'm barely have any shit going on. A panel on Thurs at 2, but other than that it's just whenever they book me for signings.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

My plan for sdcc is to sit at the ale table with bryan. Hes the only one that raves about me

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:18pm PDT

I got rid of a bunch of ALE people from my feed... even the ones I like. Ray, James F Wright, Vito. They're cool and all but I get tired of reading their constant posts about themselves.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:16pm PDT

Lol. I was totally thinking that today. Im so tired of jamals rants

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

So what's your SDCC plan? You gonna do some signings at other booths too?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:12pm PDT

I had to take those fools out of my Facebook feed. I can't handle their bullshit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:12pm PDT

Ego maniacs, I guess?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:11pm PDT

How come all these action lab directors of marketing like him and jamal are all dicks that are full of them selves?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

I know him enough to pass on that. haha

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

Lol. I dont know him at all.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

Just between you and I, they tried to get Jeremey Whitley to stay with me. I definitely wasn't gonna let that happen. The guy's kind of a dick.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

I guess

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

hotel surprise

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

hahaha

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Idk where im staying. Bryan has something for me

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

OH FUCK YES

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

By the way, your zombie tramp shirt came in.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Speaking of cons, where are you staying in San Deigo?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

Yup.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

ALE books as in con exclusives?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

Yup. Its bryans new rule. Nude variants will only be for ale books. Not stores

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

Hmmm. That's a new ALE rule or something?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

I know. Also Bryan told me no more nudes for store variants. So thats gunna cut down too on orders

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

Cool. I'm glad that worked out.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

That almost happened with their issue 13 cover. But it went through

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

Fuuucckkkkk damn that's gonna cut down on exclusives!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

Maybe the owner is playing dumb because he feels bad? We just had an unused cover, though, so it's not like I give a shit if he doesn't use it.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

That's what i got from jason. And from now on, to get a variant, you have to order 500 books. Not 250

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

No variants til their debt is paid

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

I told the store owner and he said he didn't even know about it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

Ohhh shit

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

Yeah i heard 1up owes diamond money.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

Like Diamond isn't allowing them.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

Yeah. I just thought of it as extra sales.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

At least that's what Bryan said earlier today.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

We've got a weird exclusive thing going on right now. Apparently 1up Collectibles can't order exclusives for some reason?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

Yeah, i mean, at some point you gotta let it go. But I totally understand why you would feel that way.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:53pm PDT

But then i got over it

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:53pm PDT

I was so pissed for a week. I didn't want crap on the cover of my books.

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:52pm PDT

And he said. I like it sooo much but the guy that drew it is my friend, and i dont want to deny him

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:52pm PDT

Then i offered it to him for free

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

i'm so confused

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

i don't...

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

they said no.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

yours is really good!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

WTF

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

Lol yup. I offered them this

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

do you know the dudes who did that?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:48pm PDT

OMG I think I found it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

okay please tell me more

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

hahahahaha

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

Back room comics. Their the ones that have the most shittiest variant ever in the history of variants

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

Nice. That's so great. What shop?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

Now i go back on july 17th for a book signing at one of the stores.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

Holy shit that's fucking awesome!

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

The con taught me that. I never signed so many books before. And broke my record for commissions

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

Did you already know about ZT being popular in Vegas or did this con teach you that?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

Its maybe a bit smaller than long beach con

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

Yup. Its a small show but it was busy

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

Sweet!!! I forget... was this your first year there?

Dan MendozaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:10pm PDT

Yup. It is awesome. Big zombie tramp fan base. 1st time being in an area where zombie tramp is sold in lots of stores.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:06pm PDT

yo! i heard from a couple of friends that Amazing Vegas was fucking awesome this year. how'd you like it?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

hhahahahaha!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:45pm PDT

Lol. Sounds like zombie tramp dialog.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

i think assholes like that have this delusion that they're super smart and no one else can recognize when they're being snobs. but no, assholes, it's pretty obvious to us.

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:08pm PDT

I think that some of tgese guys think that im some idiot thst just got lucky. I know jeremy dale thought so. They forget that i have a BFA in film and animation. I studied screen writing and film making. I know what I'm doing.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

for real dude. it was like 3 issues or something?

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:03pm PDT

Lol. One that wasn't liked to begin with

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:03pm PDT

oh i know. it's like wow congrats jamal, you're reprinting a 12 year old comic book.

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:02pm PDT

Yeah i thought we would talk about the one year anniversary issue. And the statue. But instead it was jamal talkung about some super hero he pitched to another company that got turned down and now action lab was gunna print it just because jamal wants too. Lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

thanks, i appreciate that! yeah, jamal had bad panel etiquette. he didn't toss questions or topics to anyone else and he definitely cut in. i was hoping you were gonna talk more because i know you'd say some funny fucking shit!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:08pm PDT

Yup he sure did. Im the guy that gets cut off. The best thing there was you. You're a good speaker

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:05pm PDT

Yeah dude he's a total diva! No question about it. It was mad rude at that panel. I think he even had his own spotlight panel too.

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:57pm PDT

Frustrating

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:56pm PDT

The panels never point towards zombie tramp and its accomplishments. Shes almost treated as a joke

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:54pm PDT

Yeah. But just between you and me... if you watch those panels, it always turns into the Jamal show. A talented artist, but a diva at heart. And his books make no money.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:49pm PDT

And if that can act as an ambassador for the company's other books, then they'd be goddamned smart to do exactly what you're saying!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:49pm PDT

You've got something really fucking special with Zombie Tramp. That story connects with all different kinds of people.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:48pm PDT

I'm not going to profess to knowing anything about the best way to market the Action Lab books, but I'll say this...

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:48pm PDT

oops haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 3:48pm PDT

I

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

Like a gate way drug

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

It better. If it goes through, then its good for everyone. It would make them interested in what other titles action lab has. Thats how zombie tramp should be treated at this company. High promotion to get peoples interest. Not just for her, but for the whole company.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

sweet. i'm glad it's moving along so fast!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

Im spose ta call bryan when i get off of work.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

so cool!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

This dude that works and pitches alot shows to Netflix hulu hbo. Dont know his company name but hes all in. And his company pays for every thing. Unlike if we did a b flick for full moon we would have to pay for half

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

That's so exciting. Who's the guy that's interested?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

NICE!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Just talked to him on the phone. Hes gunna try to get it handled

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Yeah, I think you should mention it to him and see if he can get it started!

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

No. Should i tell him? I just need someone to get the ball rolling

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

FUUUCCCCCKKKKKK they always take so long on shit like that. Does Dave know yet?

Dan MendozaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

Dan MendozaSunday, May 17, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Dan MendozaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Finishing a Halloween script now, then on to the zt vs. Gingerdead man script

Dan MendozaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

Got it homie. As far as I know, im all set up for sdcc. Finished 13 about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Turned out nice

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Yo I forwarded you the email about the air date for our episode. It's on the Thursday of Phoenix Comicon so I won't even be in town! I'm gonna work the Action Lab booth with Dwonch that weekend. Did Brian hook you up with your SDCC digs yet? And how's ZT #13 coming???

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

I don't know. Its alot of work. Lol

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Cool. If that writer didn't work out, would you want to take a crack at the movie script?

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

Still in talks. I guess band already has a screen writer in mind

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

Those look like pretty great incentives. Exciting shit! How close are you to making it happen?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

Yeah, I will. I'm gonna keep it in the back of my mind and I'm sure stuff will pop up when I'm doing something else random.

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

4 so far. 1. Behind the scenes photos signed by cast and crew. 2. Be in the movie as an extra (transportation not provided) 3. Signed copy of script. 4.signed copy of movie poster. Although I don't know how much to charge for these incentives. Email me if you get any ideas.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:19pm PDT

Thought about it for a few mins... no good ideas yet! What incentives have you thought of so far?

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:15pm PDT

Bryans gunna put together a kickstarter. Can you think of some good incentives to give out for donaters?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

i won't tell a soul

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

that would be a great match.

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:09pm PDT

And on a keep it quiet note, Charles band is interested in making a zt movie

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

fuck yeah

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

Ive been pushing it since last sdcc. Bryan asked me to pitch it a month ago. So its a go

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

I want to make sure I don't pitch anything you're working on and I thought Dwonch mentioned you were doing a Gingerdead Man thing.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:06pm PDT

That'll be fucking sick.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:04pm PDT

NICE!

Dan MendozaSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

Yup. Zt vs ginger dead man. Already submitted the synopsis. Now gotta write the 3 part script

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 25, 2015 at 7:48pm PDT

Dan MendozaFriday, April 24, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Thanks homie. I emailed him today

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:36pm PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:24pm PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:22pm PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:22pm PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

Yeah. I got til mid may so should be ok. What gets in my way of schedule is due dates for covers.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

Dan MendozaWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

Dan MendozaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 4:15pm PST

Ok

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 4:14pm PST

I'm not totally sure, but I'd imagine she's asking us questions. But I don't know what Jamal has planned. She knows him already, so she spoke to him on her own.

Dan MendozaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

Ok. Is she interviewing us in front of peeps or are we doing a slide show presentation kinda thang? Just wondering

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:20pm PST

hahaha Action Lab stuff i guess? i'll get more info from Jessica as the time gets closer. and you can always friend her and drop her a line too: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.the.comic.book.girl

Dan MendozaSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:12pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PST

Anna.E.Lencioni@gmail.com

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:31am PST

hahaha k that's what i thought you'd said.

Dan MendozaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:17am PST

Only jason and dave have her info. They don't let me talk to her. Lol

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:10am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:09am PST

aight cool. you got a good email address for her?

Dan MendozaFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:00am PST

Sure

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 8:40am PST

oh you know who else is out here... Anna Lencioni is in LA. should i ask her about the panel?

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:45pm PST

Yup.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

hmmmm that would make sense from all the random wizard shows Jason's been doing lately

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:40pm PST

Lame. I heard they worked out some deal with wizard cons so most are doing those

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

nah

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

Anyone else?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

ray won't be there, though.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

i just went thru the guests lists on the wondercon site. jamal's gonna be there.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

oh shit cool i hope he gets one

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

Yeah. I know jason is trying to get a table but no luck yet. Dont know about dave

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

i just emailed jason and dave about it, but i doubt they're gonna be there. i dunno... maybe they'll know of some others who might be there.

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

Actually i dont think too many. But im not sure which peeps

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

any other Action Lab peeps gonna be there that you know of? i assume Ray's gonna be there.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

cool

Dan MendozaThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

Yup

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

a lady i met at NYCC is interested in putting together an Action Lab panel for the show and she wants to know who's gonna be there.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:16pm PST

i forget... are you exhibiting at WonderCon?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 6, 2015 at 5:28pm PST

yeah, it's some weird shit

Dan MendozaFriday, February 6, 2015 at 4:25pm PST

Crazy instructions. Lol

Nick MarinoFriday, February 6, 2015 at 4:23pm PST

The parking lot is right next to the marina. When we were there on Weds, it was a little confusing because there was construction all over the place. Basically, you wanna turn into the lot where you see the Ruby's. And then we take a shuttle to the restaurant.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 6, 2015 at 4:21pm PST

"The call time is 5PM for both you and your guest, please park in the lot (181 N. Harbor Blvd, Redondo Beach, CA) - PLEASE SAY YOU ARE WITH THE TV SHOW, we recommend you and your guest drive separately if interviews run long unless they don’t mind waiting. Please have you and your guest come camera ready, No Busy Patterns, No Stripes, No Logos."

Nick MarinoFriday, February 6, 2015 at 4:21pm PST

Update!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

aight cool. i'll keep you posted.

Dan MendozaThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

Daninashell@gmail.com Loriee@gmail.com

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:10pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:10pm PST

Oh yeah jeans are fine. They had weird requirements about patterns and colors for us when we filmed with them yesterday, but I don't think that'll apply to Sunday.

Dan MendozaThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:04pm PST

Ok. Cuz this kid only owns jeans. Lol. I have nice shirts though.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:01pm PST

i expect them to email us more specific instructions tomorrow or Sat

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:59pm PST

which basically ruled out all of my tshirts haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:59pm PST

also, no visible logos on anything.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:58pm PST

here's what they told us about that stuff so far: "Please come TV/Camera ready – hair/makeup/clothing already set"

Dan MendozaThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

Ok ill find one. Is tgere a dress code?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:50pm PST

the show is called Say It To My Face. it's gonna be on FYI (used to be the Biography channel, i guess?).

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:42pm PST

the producers asked us to send over a pic of our guests. got a pic of the two of you that you want me to use?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 7:37pm PST

Dan MendozaFriday, January 30, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 30, 2015 at 7:25pm PST

YYEESS!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 11:35am PST

Sup Heather, Facebook now lets people choose a legacy contact to manage their account if something happens to them: https://www.facebook.com/help/1568013990080948 For your incredible pitch to turn my page into a total (and literal) ass fest, I have decided to make you my legacy contact (in the event that my untimely death occurs while people still give a shit about Facebook, that is). In particular, I was moved by your idea to draw on the butts, including adding hats, cigarettes protruding from the cracks, and anime blush marks. When I die, I 100% expect you to do this as soon as possible. (I mean, at the very least, post a new butt profile pic for me.) Sincerely, Nick Marino

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:40pm PST

i emailed the publisher. i'm gonna go ahead and email you the page template plus some other details. thanks for being game for this!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:31pm PST

right now i'm thinking it would be Friday. i need to check with my contact for sure about that, which i'm gonna do right now.

Heather NunnellyMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:20pm PST

Okay. If you wanted me to be in Issue 1, what would be the ultament deadline?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:08pm PST

so right now since you're one of the first people to say yes the schedule is pretty open

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:07pm PST

but we've got three other issues

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:07pm PST

the first issue will probably be going to print in a week or so. if you were feeling especially gung-ho, it could be awesome to try and get one in there.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:06pm PST

that represents how i feel about a pinup by you

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:06pm PST

Heather NunnellyMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:06pm PST

When would you need it by?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:06pm PST

yeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Heather NunnellyMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:05pm PST

Yeah I'd love to. I am actually taking a break from Vacant, so I have time to do a pin up.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:05pm PST

i know Illegal is taking up your drawing time right now but if you're interested, we're looking for pinups for Holy F*ck...

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 8:15am PST

Thanks man!

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 8:15am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 8:13am PST

i am sooooo out of the loop on podcasts nowadays! i used to cross-post my episodes on this site: http://www.comicspodcasts.com/ which features a ton of shows but they mostly skew mainstream.

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 5:17am PST

Hey Nick, hope all is well. I was wondering....donyoi know of any podcasts that might be interested in talking about something like "Abandon All Hope". ? Looking forward to seeing more Holy F%^ck updates!

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistMonday, December 1, 2014 at 6:52am PST

Great! Thanks again Nick. I will be posting updates on here so check in from time to time to see more art related to this project.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 30, 2014 at 6:57pm PST

Oh BTW, when I was pitching, I modeled my pitch after Archaia's templates because I think they have awesome examples: http://www.archaia.com/submissions/

Nick MarinoSunday, November 30, 2014 at 6:56pm PST

Much appreciated! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your awesome pages here on FB. Good luck with the pitching!

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistSunday, November 30, 2014 at 6:53pm PST

Cool thanks! The book looks great!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 30, 2014 at 6:45pm PST

Hey James! Yeah, my book Holy F*ck is being published by Action Lab. Specifically it's coming out from their mature readers imprint, Danger Zone. I hooked up with them just by contacting their submissions email address. Their submission info is here: http://www.actionlabcomics.com/faq/ Frankly, I don't know exactly what they're looking for! I just know they liked Holy F*ck. Our submission was a really tight five-page sequence, along with a cover letter and a treatment of the full story. Plus, our whole book was done before we started pitching, so I also included a link to a PDF of that. It worked for us, but I don't know if that's what they want from every project! (Also, it took us three months before we heard back from them.) Hope that helps!

JamesBeihl SequentialArtistSunday, November 30, 2014 at 5:01pm PST

Hey Nick hows it going? Hope all is well since you stopped doing Audioshocker. I don't know if you remember but you reviewed a book I was working on a while back on that show called ' Avalon's Destruction'. After taking a break from the book, my partner and I have gone back to the drawing board and are in the process of self publishing several books with my art on some of the issues. I heard you were tabling with Action Lab and I was thinking Action Lab might be a good fit for the book. My plan is to pencils and ink a full issue and then I am going to try and get my partner to use a colorist of my choosing. My question to you I guess is ( if you are indeed publishing through Action Lab) what does Action Lab look for in a submission, and what is the best way to get that submission looked at i.e. should I contact them through Facebook or direct email? I am still pencilling the Issue so we are a ways off from that, but I am confident the book will find a home with some publisher. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks. Best, James

Who's *almost* web-savy? I never check the actual address when I'm on my phone.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 4, 2014 at 1:33pm PST

WEIRD! did it say it was from one my email addresses or did it just have my name in it?

Jason K AverillThursday, December 4, 2014 at 12:39pm PST

Not a gods damn clue. I figured it was some sort of spam, which entailed not clicking the link.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 3, 2014 at 8:19pm PST

nope! what are "fleet services"?

Jason K AverillWednesday, December 3, 2014 at 9:54am PST

Did you just forward me a fleet services email?

Jesse James Criscione, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

Jesse James CriscioneMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Jesse James CriscioneMonday, January 26, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Terrible idea isn't it?

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:26pm PDT

I just think it's a really funny premise that can be expanded on

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:26pm PDT

All because of the conflict, what is it really like to marry/live with a hero

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:25pm PDT

A 2 minute scene in total

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:25pm PDT

My fiancee I were watching the incredibles today and realized how much frozone's wife stole the movie despite never showing up on screen

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:23pm PDT

Real housewives of super heroes/villains

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:21pm PDT

share anything with me! i love story ideas :D

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

Something different

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

Not for your current book

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

I think I kinda have a great one

Brady ChalmersSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

Do you take story ideas?

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:34am PST

Word

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:32am PST

once i master making comics, then i'll work on other fun stuff like that! ;)

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:25am PST

Keep it in the memory bank

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:25am PST

Fair enough

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:25am PST

Lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:24am PST

i love the idea, but honestly i don't enjoy working with video so that probably won't happen

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:24am PST

i wish we had 12 issues! well, maybe i don't... that would be an insane amount of work. Holy F*ck is only 4 issues.

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:22am PST

And the roll out

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:21am PST

Do one about the first 12 issues

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:18am PST

NO! damn. that's a good idea. wish i thought of it. haha

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 10:13am PST

Have you done a documentary about the making of yet?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:59am PST

hehe thanks! it's been an interesting journey, that's for sure.

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Word! I've always wanted to write a book, so I damn sure better support the only person I know who actually has.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:57am PST

this is my first time at the rodeo so i'm still learning about how to point people people to the right shops

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:57am PST

thanks for asking about Holy F*ck #1!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

hah

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Wouldn't trade it for wolverine #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

ahhhhh crusty old comic shops

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Maybe older than Chicago comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

those places can be the best sometimes, though

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

hahahaha

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Yeah, they're very very old

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:55am PST

oh damn. yeah, that's pretty rare for a comic shop nowadays

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Cash only type of place

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Yeah, old school place

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:55am PST

windy city comics is sorta not on the internet! i couldn't find much on them just now.

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Yeah, they're an institution. I like third coast too, only minority owned shop in town.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:54am PST

my friend told me chicago comics was awesome. i emailed them last year but didn't hear back.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:53am PST

third coast looks cool! i haven't heard of it before.

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:53am PST

Or windy city comics

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:53am PST

Or Chicago comics

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:52am PST

Third coast comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:52am PST

yeah, definitely! we're not sold out yet so your shop should be able to get a copy no problem.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:52am PST

specifically, i haven't heard from anyone in chicago yet. what's your fav shop in the area?

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:52am PST

Can i order it to my shop here?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 9:51am PST

unfortunately, i don't know which comic shops ordered copies of it. unless friends (or the shops) tell me, that is!

Brady ChalmersTuesday, January 27, 2015 at 8:04am PST

Where can I get your new book?

Kimberly Mattia, Nick Marino
Kimberly MattiaThursday, January 29, 2015 at 4:07pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 29, 2015 at 4:06pm PST

i will! right now the quality seems pretty good. the only weird thing is the smell! kinda stinky. but i always wash stuff before i wear it anyway.

Kimberly MattiaThursday, January 29, 2015 at 3:15pm PST

hurray! they came! thanks for the order. let me know how the quality is and if the design starts to peel off when you wash them.

Ray A. HeightWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

No doubt!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Ray A. HeightWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Kick ass job on locking this down, Nick!

Ray A. HeightWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

Ray A. HeightTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 7:35pm PDT

Mike Scigliano would be perfect and he'll get it to the right people. Also, Kris Simon. Do you need their email addresses?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 7:18pm PDT

Ray A. HeightFriday, July 17, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Tell them I'm in.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 17, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

i was thinking about proposing an Action Lab panel to the Long Beach Comic Con (similar to the one at WonderCon). any interest?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

yeah man agreed

Ray A. HeightThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

Ha! Yeah...LBCE should be fun.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

well at least i'll see you at LBCE in a week or so

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

nooooo!!!!

Ray A. HeightThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

Oh, yeah?

Ray A. HeightThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

Nick! Nah, bud. I won't be there this year.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

a lady i met at NYCC is interested in putting together an Action Lab panel.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

are you gonna be at WonderCon? i'm assuming yes.

Blackagar Boltagonn, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 7:38pm PDT

hahaha yeah fer shure!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 7:13pm PDT

Haha, this is wild. Even Rainbow Wizards need a day off.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:19pm PDT

Here's our pitch if you're curious: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsMW5EWlFKejgzdm8

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:18pm PDT

The Nickelodeon thing is their Animated Shorts Program, nothing NDA in nature. We haven't heard back yet!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:11pm PDT

Didn't you have something at Nickelodeon? (Or is that hush hush, NDA stuff?)

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:10pm PDT

Oooh, IDW would've been cool!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:02pm PDT

So yeah it's either Action Lab for that book OR I'll take it to 1First Comics which is pretty meh if you ask me.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:02pm PDT

I even sent them catnip joints as a joke gift and everything. Hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:01pm PDT

Yeah, exactly! We had Cougar and Cub at IDW but they eventually said no!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:41pm PDT

At worst I think we at least have someone we know we can pitch to.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:41pm PDT

Pitch away, man. Pitch away.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:40pm PDT

*cough* *cough* I may have the same bug you do.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:40pm PDT

Hahaha hell yeah!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:39pm PDT

But I'm gonna be pitching Dave some stuff next weekend anyway hehe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:38pm PDT

Our numbers for Holy F*cked sucked. And because of their magical accounting coughsuspiciouscough we're like thousands in the hole with them probably! HAHAHA

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:37pm PDT

He is super cool :D

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:37pm PDT

Yeah, he's great. Patient and understanding!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:36pm PDT

That's super cool that Dave is down to stick with it and make sure the series finishes properly.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:35pm PDT

Bummer about the numbers but TPBs are the awesomest anyway!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:35pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:33pm PDT

Yeah, that's the one!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:32pm PDT

You're nickmarino [at] gmail [dot] com, right? I want to make sure these go to the right one.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:31pm PDT

(That's between you and me for now, though! Just wanted you to be aware in case Rosie is wondering about future issues, haha.)

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:30pm PDT

I am glad they're sticking with us through the end of what we've planned, however it shakes out.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:30pm PDT

Our sales numbers have been on the low side. We may end up going trade-only for the final six issues. Dave mentioned it recently, and Jackie and talked about it a bit.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

That's what we want to hear! :)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

she just wants to read it all!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

no worries!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

she doesn't care

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

oh that's fine it can just be the singles

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

The issues comprising the third TPB (7-9) have all been released, but the that volume doesn't come out until July.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:28pm PDT

Sure! As you know, the TPBs are really just single issues smashed together, so I can basically send you one batch of issues 1-3 (TPB #1) and one batch of issues 4-6 (TPB #2)...

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:27pm PDT

She works at a comic shop but they don't have all of the Nutmeg books in stock right now! She wants to say a bunch of nice stuff about Nutmeg being a highlight of what ALE has to offer right now but she hasn't been able to read all of the issues.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:27pm PDT

Would it be possible for you to email me review PDFs of the Nutmeg TPBs? My friend Rosie is writing a piece about Action Lab books for Women Write About Comics https://twitter.com/womenoncomics .

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 2:11pm PST

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 10, 2016 at 2:09pm PST

More Nick & Daniel comics!

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 10, 2016 at 2:09pm PST

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:43pm PST

you're not missing much, haha

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:43pm PST

it's a fun idea, though

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:43pm PST

AND I STILL DON'T WATCH IT

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:43pm PST

oohhhhh okay so that is pro bowl week, i keep getting confused about that hehehe

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:42pm PST

So they moved it to that blank week.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:42pm PST

Then they realized nobody was watching the Pro Bowl when it fell after the Super Bowl.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:42pm PST

Yeah it used to be.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:42pm PST

whatever that's called nowadays

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:42pm PST

at first i was thinking it was the blank week between championships and the bowl

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:41pm PST

oh yeah, it's championship weekend

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:41pm PST

I've heard it was a cool show! Sadly it falls in that window of shows I can't attend (yet) since it's during FB season.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:39pm PST

Cool, I'll be hanging out. I might also hit up Phat Con at the end of Jan. It was pretty funny last year.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:39pm PST

It depends, but I may try to drop by for a bit.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:39pm PST

Thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:38pm PST

Are you going to LBCE next month?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:38pm PST

I'm glad it did! I'm looking forward to hearing about your experiences at all of these shows.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:38pm PST

That'll give Scott about 10 weeks or so to get them to us.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:38pm PST

Gonna try to get our order in before the end of the week.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:37pm PST

Thanks a lot, Nick! This helps immensely.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:37pm PST

That's certainly a good way to keep your sanity :D

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:37pm PST

You're also right.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

Yeah, you're definitely rigth!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

So we want to do a small run of those, plus our friend Eric did a variant cover for that one

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

It'll cost you less to order them and make things way more manageable.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

You're not really gonna lose sales.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

But #7 will be out by the time of WonderCon

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

Not a bad idea.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:36pm PST

We're actually thinking of just doing #1s and then the two trades.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:35pm PST

So it's tricky.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:35pm PST

But you may also have days where multiple people want single issues of #1-7.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:35pm PST

Oh I know it.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:35pm PST

I think it's safe to assume that you may have days where you don't sell a single copy of #4-6

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:34pm PST

Yep! haha

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:34pm PST

Oh, I know. That's preferable to the alternative.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:34pm PST

Though personally I think there's nothing wrong with selling out.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:34pm PST

Haha...

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:34pm PST

I hope so!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:33pm PST

Yep!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:33pm PST

It's just tough to figure out the alchemy of ordering enough books to sell well through the weekend, but not to sell out before the last day.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:33pm PST

I bet you'll do well.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:32pm PST

Oh, I definitely know that feeling.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:32pm PST

Our best shows have been in Seattle and Portland, which were still comics focused and also I think people are more receptive/supportive of indie creators there.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:32pm PST

I've been lucky with Holy F*ck... it's sold about the same everywhere. But I've done those shows in the past where I can barely give the comics away. heh heh

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:31pm PST

I know what you mean.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:30pm PST

Haha!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:30pm PST

Well, shows where people want to buy comics, haha.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:30pm PST

Having Jackie join me helps a lot, too. I think we're a good team at shows.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:29pm PST

Though that'll have its own headaches, I'm sure.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:29pm PST

God I know.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:29pm PST

I look forward to the time when the publisher does that shit.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:29pm PST

Ditto. I only did a few last year but it burned me out.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:28pm PST

I love doing shows, I hate doing the logistics for them.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:28pm PST

That's great.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:28pm PST

Oh wow! You're gonna be busy this spring :D

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:28pm PST

That is, a new variant cover.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:28pm PST

And we're looking to get a set of new con-exclusive variants for #1.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:27pm PST

I dunno how long he'll take to answer but he can check pretty easily, I think. I normally give him the Diamond codes.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:27pm PST

Good call!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:27pm PST

You can straight up ask Scott how many copies of each TPB and single issues are in stock.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

Ugh.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

I knooooooooow!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

who knows how many action lab made! hahaha

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

I know...

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

Unlike the singles which have to get printed.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

Yeah BUTTTTTT

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

Since they're already printed I imagine they just need to be ordered.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

k

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

or $11?

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

Yeah.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

They're $12 a piece?

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:26pm PST

It's tough because we conceivably need to order enough to carry us through at least two shows.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:25pm PST

Not a bad idea.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:25pm PST

Yeah, Dave suggested 75 of vol. 1, 40 of vol. 2

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:25pm PST

Even if you order conservatively and imagine you sell ten of each per show, that's like 60 copies each.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:24pm PST

20ish each at WonderCon, 20ish each at ECCC, Jackie's got her two Indiana shows, plus your two Canadian shows.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:23pm PST

I mean, I assume you'd want more of the 1st one, but realistically speaking...

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:22pm PST

Sounds to me like you could order as much as 100 copies of each TPB

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:22pm PST

Yeah, for reals. Actually Dave talked me into it. They sell well or him, but he does pop culture zeitgeist stuff.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:21pm PST

oops

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:21pm PST

We were thinking like mercenaries. Prints cost so little to make and we were like, "We can sell 'em for $10 and make out like bandits! (Or break even.)"

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:20pm PST

Hahaha yep same here

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:20pm PST

We went through all this trouble to make prints and then sold like 3 of them.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:20pm PST

But that's a Holy F*ck... who knows what it'll be for other stuff.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:20pm PST

That's what we found too!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:19pm PST

But my prints sell like shit! People want single issues and TPBs.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:19pm PST

That's great news.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:18pm PST

One thing I've found is that all days sell pretty equally now.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:18pm PST

Yeah, I think just taking some trades should be enough.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:18pm PST

Nice price! No space!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:18pm PST

The table space is tiny--2 feet!--but it's also only $30, so...

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:18pm PST

ooohhh it's an comic arts fest, cool

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:17pm PST

www.vancaf.com

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:17pm PST

Oh, yeah, I applied on a whim after I heard good things.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:17pm PST

Jackie's got Indy Pop Con mid-June, and then I'll be attending SDCC I think, but that's its own animal.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

Oooo never heard of the Vancouver show! Cool.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

Possibly Vancouver May 21-22 (got in, but dunno if I can afford the flight in addition to everything)

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

One of the big reasons I'm not doing conventions this spring is because I get so stressed out ordering from him.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

Then we've got Toronto May 14-15.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:16pm PST

Umm... Jackie has Indiana Comic Con end of April.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

That's why we're trying to get it in now.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

Just those two?

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

I KNOOOOOOOOW.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

Scott's a cool guy but he's not easy to order from. He takes a loooooong time!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

Then a week-and-a-half later it's Emerald City in Seattle.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

WonderCon is first up, end of March.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

ugh yes

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:15pm PST

Plus, trying to get enough to carry us over from show to show without having to reorder.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:14pm PST

What other shows do you have?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:14pm PST

Yeah, for sure!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:14pm PST

This will be the first time I do WonderCon where I'll have more than #1 out. That's what's tricky, haha. People who bought #1 last year might want to get #2 or #3.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:13pm PST

My experience has been that it's good to have a few extra copies of #1 compared to the other singles (and in your case, maybe #4 as well if you get people who read the first arc but not the second).

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:13pm PST

Okay, cool! That's kind of what we were thinking, too. #1s (standard, variant) and then TPBs.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:12pm PST

I sell about the same amount of sets (Holy F*ck #1-4) in a given day, as well as a few people buying just the first issue and people picking up a random variant cover that makes them laugh.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:11pm PST

The TPBs sell about 8 per day (give or take a few, of course).

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:09pm PST

Oh, cool! Thank you.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 6:08pm PST

Yeah, I mean, every show seems to be slightly different for every creator. With that said, I'll tell you how Holy F*ck has sold and hopefully that helps!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, January 4, 2016 at 5:10pm PST

Hey, Nick! Had a question for you, if you have a few minutes? Jackie and I are getting set to order some books for our shows this year, and just trying to get a sense of how many units to order--understanding that each show is different. We have two TPBs out now, but we also want to have a good number of singles as well, especially for issue #1. Do you have any advice on this? (Dave gave us some good points, too, but we want to get some other opinions.)

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:01pm PST

Naturally. Well you can always revisit it! Fertile ground there.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:53am PST

It was a lot of fun, and since they were completely our world and characters, we could do whatever we wanted with them.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:51am PST

It sounds like you two really invested a lot of thought and passion into the project.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:50am PST

Yeah but it's one hell of an "earlier stuff"!!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:39am PST

Wish I had more earlier stuff to share, haha, but GZ is pretty much it.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:36am PST

It was a weird origin. I pitched the idea of a Geek Zodiac to Josh, and when I saw his designs for each of the signs, I thought, "Hey, these could be characters." And then I came up with stories for each them, which we turend into mini-comic origins.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:32am PST

Yeah it looks super intense!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:30am PST

Hahaha... I think we lucked out. We wanted to do more with it, and had a fuller story planned, but it was just too heavy a workload for just the two of us, and working full-time.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:05am PST

again, impressed = me

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:05am PST

SO CLASSY!

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:32am PST

(We want to do a paperback edition, but no luck on that yet.)

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:31am PST

If you're interested, this is the whole magilla, though: http://www.amazon.com/Geek-Zodiac-Compendium-James-Wright/dp/0983818851

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:30am PST

Hahaha. No luck on the foil-embossed polybag cover, though.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:15am PST

I love how it was like "collectible pull-out poster!" in this issue. Brought me back to the 90s. :D

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:33pm PST

(That's more or less th basis for all the Geek Zodiac stuff. My buddy Josh and I came up with it in spring 2011 and then used it to make some comics. There's more to it than that, but that's the nutshell version.)

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:31pm PST

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:27pm PST

Awesome! I'll definitely check it out. I always like to see more comics from friends when I can.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:21pm PST

No pressure to read anything, but if you're ever curious... it's there!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:21pm PST

I've got a page on my site with PDFs of almost everything I did pre Holy F*ck: http://www.nickmarino.net/ebooks/

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:19pm PST

FANTASTIC! I'm impressed. It's super cool.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, November 1, 2015 at 8:23am PST

Those got collected along with that first issue and some background materials into a single volume.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, November 1, 2015 at 8:22am PST

Haha, hey, thanks! It was a lot of fun to work on. And hard since we had to figure out how our world worked. For a year and a half before we did short comics introducing each member of the group.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:17am PST

Geek Zodiac ROCKS! thank you for sharing it with me!!! really amazing concept with tons of depth and excellent execution.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

It's as big as the moon! Godspeed, my friend.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i, for one, really want to eat that sky cookie right now

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

COOLLLLLL

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

But it's more likely a case-by-case basis.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

I think it was contingent on pre-order numbers.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

I feel like we talked about it before, but I kinda forget the details.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

We want to use it as a variant or even main cover for issue 7. If we can.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Our friend Eric did it. We commissioned him for it.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Right?

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

IT"S GORGEOUS!!!!!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, October 18, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, October 18, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

:D

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 3:06pm PDT

Oldest Man Eternity

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

they should do a whole line of Old Man comics. it'll be like the new The End. Old Man Squirrel Girl, Old Man Bucky, Old Man Dazzler, Older Man Logan, Really Old Man Professor X

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 2:42pm PDT

i would read OMG

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Six Degrees of Infinity should be the next Marvel movie.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

I saw someone, David Aja, I think, on Twitter saying he wants to see an Old Man Galactus comic. Called OMG.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

...who was a herald of Galactus, who's an ancient cosmic being that knows Thanos! BOOOM!!! Six degrees of infinity.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Like Allison Blair.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Some people shine. He dazzles.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

I hear he really shines in the latest issue.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Jems Wright, co-creator of Nutmeg

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Strawberry Jem. Grape Jem. I love all of the flavors.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

Infinity Gems. Crystal Gems. Truly, Truly, Truly Outrageous Jem

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

I am always down for some Infinity Gem action

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hahaha

Yes! It's a good move. (Nutmeg has been called All-Ages but that's not really true since it's a thinly veiled drug story)

Whoa!!! That is gonna be a lot!!! Awesome.

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 4:02pm PDT

In hindsight it should have been 12, but it's too late for that now!

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 4:01pm PDT

The full Nutmeg story is 15 issues. (WTF?)

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 4:01pm PDT

...too much?

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 4:01pm PDT

SOOOO MUCH.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

How much Nutmeg is left?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

All sounds awesome!

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

And I'm tinkering with something else for him that's loosely based on my brother and me spending our summers at our grandparents' house in rural North Carolina.

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

No luck on the second round of pitches I'd sent, but... After LBCC I finally figured out Shield Maidens, which is what Jackie and I had planned to do after Nutmeg. So I just sat down and wrote up a brief pitch of that and sent it over to the guy. And he LOVED it, haha. The thing is, I can't do it (and won't do it) without Jackie since she's technically co-creator on it. And we've still got a lot of Nutmeg left to go. So, even if we were able to get it greenlit, it wouldn't happen for quite some time. But, the really cool part is that the editor said he'd help us put together the pitch materials document when the time comes, even if there's no guarantees. And he mentioned it to his higher-ups and they seemed to dig the idea, too. So... fingers crossed and all that.

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

Things at Boom are going... interestingly?

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

Thanks, man!

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

Oooooh! Cougar & Cub!

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

oh, first issue of Cougar and Cub if yer interested (only the first half in color): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B67SE_xwXHvsQjRVLWRzaF9pR2s

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

glad to help! how's Boom stuff going?

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:47pm PDT

Haha, yeah I'll keep it handy just in case. Thanks, Nick!

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

well for the future you can always use that comixology email! i've found it to be pretty helpful. kevin's great but he's not that quick about stuff like this.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

hahaha

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

Jackie hit up Kevin and Dave so hopefully it can get fixed soon! Haha. Someone's trying to cross-promote!

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

I dunno how quick they'll get back to you on the weekend, but they're pretty fast during the week.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Yeah, you wanna email actionlab@comixology.com and copy Kevin Freeman on the email

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

HAHAHA! That's awesome.

Blackagar BoltagonnSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Do you have any contact info for someone at Comixology? It appears that the synopsis for the Nutmeg series isn't just wrong, it's for an entirely different book altogether, haha. https://www.comixology.com/Nutmeg/comics-series/36816?ref=Y29taWMvdmlldy9kZXNrdG9wL2JyZWFkY3J1bWJz

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 4:34pm PDT

THANKS!!!!! It gonna be twisted but kinda like Holy F*ck/ed, it's also surprisingly sentimental. :D

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Yo this looks dope! After seeing what you and Daniel did to religious figures, I can't wait to see what you do to superheroes.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

yeah no rush of course

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Gaaaaaaah!

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

I'm grabbing lunch at the moment but I can check in depth when I get back home.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

okay, it's only a few pages so it doesn't get to the really crazy stuff... but it's a lil crazy ;)

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

Yes!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

wanna see it?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

so i just sent in our shadowline submission last night!

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

We can always dream!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

maybe one day i'll make it to #396...

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

ooooooooooooooooo our regular cover was #397 in Jan 2015!!! hahahahahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

i'm reading the FAQ but its fucking dense!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

i always forget about that site

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

And as far as I know, Comichron only charts comic shop sales.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

*one of the few

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Shit. Yeah they're like one of the books that I see on Comichron aside from Princeless and Gronk.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

but it can't make the sales charts for a technical reason involving the different price points

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

That makes sense.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

they're like 5000-6000 an issue from what i hear

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

which is, if i'm not mistaken, what really fuels the numbers

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Jeezus.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

each issue has at least four covers, if not five or six

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

i dunno if it's still the top book but probably

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

It's always weird tabling next to that book, haha.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

Is Zombie Tramp the biggest seller?

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

hahahaha...

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

hahshahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

oh well f*ck it i was gonna email them about it but you know what? i don't think i care enough

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yeah Zombie Tramp is there

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

It looks like there are Kindle editions of single issues for some of the series.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Haha.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Yeah, that was how we ended up getting Nutmeg in.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

SWEET!

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

(For Princeless.)

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Tales of Girls Who Rock #1 is Jackie's cover.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Yup.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

oh wait princeless has single issues

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

If it were a rando it'd be one thing, but it's coming from a librarian, so...

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

i'm so curious now!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

i can't find any other ALE books with Kindle versions

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

that's true

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

*shrug* They can't all be winners.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Hadn't seen the Kindle, though.

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Because I saw the TPB on Amazon a while back.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

what is the deal with that?!?!??

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

fucking hell

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Oh yeah, I knew about that.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

maybe don't even read it

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

like

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

*though

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

oh god the editorial review is excruciating through

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

Haha, we didn't. Thanks for the heads up!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

http://www.amazon.com/Nutmeg-Vol-James-F-Wright-ebook/dp/B010AX1596/

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

hehe you didn't know???

Blackagar BoltagonnTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

Holy f*ck! Your guess is as good as mine.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

i just noticed that Nutmeg has a Kindle version!!! how'd you score that?

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Yup!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

kagehito@gmail.com right?

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Go team!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

okay, it's already been fixed ;)

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Okay! Hopefully we can work it out!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Finally got our confirmation from LBCC for the panel but it has us listed for Sunday instead of Saturday. Hopefully I can get it changed!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 8:27pm PDT

sweet! i got the thumbs up from everyone involved for Comikaze as well, so i'll be sending that off soon. i'll request Fri or Sat for that show.

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 6:10pm PDT

Cool! I'll put in the request for that Saturday off then.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

LBCC said yes to the panel. and it'll be on Saturday as well! i should be receiving an official confirmation from them later this week.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:31pm PDT

How's this look?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

a year

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

not for at least year

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

hey, it's worth a shot. and so many of us are in the neighborhood (though I heard Mendoza is moving to Seattle?)

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

might not be an issue if they don't approve it, though! hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

ditto

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

That's more like it! Seriously, though, I hope I can make it.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

k i'll make sure there's champagne.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

Black Tie Panels.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

Damn it. If it ain't fancy, I want no part of it.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

i'll let you know when the proposal is put together. it's not gonna be anything fancy.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

understood. that sounds good.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

I think you can include me on the proposals but I can't say 100% if I'll be able to do them yet.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

we also have the option of Friday for Comikaze if that's better for you

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

can i include you on the proposals for the panels?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

cool

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Comikaze or LBCC.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Hey! I don't have my schedule for the season yet, so not sure which days I'll be off. But I can guarantee that I'll be working every Sunday. Saturday events are much more manageable.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

hey i'm working on my proposal for an Action Lab panel for the LBCC, which is Sept 12-13. i remember you saying that Comikaze would probably be okay with you since it's later in the football season... but i forget where we left off with the Long Beach show. would either the 12th or 13th work for you?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

Thanks! See you next week!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

have fun writing!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

yeah lots of great peeps. good messaging with you too :D

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

Can honestly say that all the other creators I've met at ALE have been good people.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

Always good talking to you, man!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

Alright, I'm gonna let you go and see if I can get some more words on this "paper."

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

thanks!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

Okay! If we go he can sit with us, haha.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

i might send Daniel to the dinner since he doesn't know anyone

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

yeah

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:01pm PDT

Yeah, I think because Jackie has only ever met like two people from ALE, and neither one is still around now, so...

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

that's huge!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

oh, very cool!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

her film only screens once

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:00pm PDT

but i dunno, i'm gonna see the action lab people all weekend

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

i'm not tight with her or anything

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

for the SDCC film fest

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

i've got an acquaintance from college who's screening her scifi short film on thurs night at 7:30

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

thanks for sending it!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:58pm PDT

Jackie and I are gonna try for dinner but can't be certain we'll be able to do it.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:58pm PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:58pm PDT

probably not

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

I hope I sent it to the right Nick Marino.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

yeah i might have to miss dinner

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

Yup!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

And also that they're going to dinner in Old Town on Thursday night.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

could you forward it to me please?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

cooool

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

Yup!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:57pm PDT

It says you and Daniel are 5-7 on Thursday, and 12-2 on Sunday.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:56pm PDT

was it sent out to everyone?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:56pm PDT

Jackie and I are 2-4 on Thursday, and 11-1 on Saturday.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:55pm PDT

Kevin sent out a (tentative) schedule the other day.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:55pm PDT

Though honestly I'll hang there as much as they let me, most likely. At NYCC I just stayed there for the whole show.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:54pm PDT

I'm talking about the schedule at the Action Lab booth.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:54pm PDT

Not sure what you mean exactly.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:52pm PDT

Oh... did you get one?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

I hope they give us the signing schedule soon so I can start planning other stuff.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

Yeah, I can't wait to meet her!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

Looking forward to seeing you at SDCC. Jackie will be there, too!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

Thanks, man!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

There's no guarantees, but it's a helluva start!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

that's hella great.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

cool!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

So, this weekend I'm basically just trying to get the OTHER pitch in some kind of shape so I can get it to him before he's bogged down with (more) SDCC prep stuff... And I want to have at the very least a verbal pitch of Shield Maidens, which is the book I want to do with Jackie once Nutmeg wraps.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

Haha... based on an experience from my childhood that he said might make a good comic with the right angle.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

And that one he kind of pitched me?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

VERY different haha. In fact, I think everything I pitched but one is really different.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

similar to Nutmeg or different?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

I'm super excited about it.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

I know!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

that's so terrific. i wanna hear more about all of this next week at SDCC!!! i really hope they pick up one or both of them!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

(Early next month.)

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

So, that one I actually got approval on the outline yesterday and he's gonna submit it to the pitch summit they have quarterly.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

Haha, so did I!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

oh right i forgot about kaboom

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

All the things I pitched could be Boom Box, I think, although one of the two he asked me to develop further he said could be regular Boom or even KaBoom.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

Ended up submitting five things. He liked all of them, which was good. Two of them he said weren't a good fit right now, one he wants me to sit on, and the other two I'm developing into fuller outlines.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

are they interested in you for Boom Box or regular Boom stuff?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

that's really exciting

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:41pm PDT

And then I went through my story idea folders to see what I could get into shape to send to him.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:41pm PDT

I flipped out for a bit, haha. Then called Jackie.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:41pm PDT

Thank you! It was pretty crazy.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:41pm PDT

He said he thought I'd be a good fit there, and wanted to see if I'd be open to pitch some stuff to him.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

congrats on that :D

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

SO AWESOME!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

About a month ago? I got a DM on Twitter from this guy who had come across Nutmeg and liked it.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

Yeah.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

boom

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

Who? ALE or Boom?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

did they reach out to you?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

Having paid staff editors goes a long way.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

yeah, Boom is like a super official company

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

It's a trip.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

Talking via email with this dude at Boom has been like night and day.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

Dwonch told me all about it in Phoenix

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

Mind-blowing indeed.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

Yeah. I talked to Shawn Pryor about it recently.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

i mean, the company staff, that is

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

kinda blew my mind

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

at least not salaries

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

i had no idea that NONE of the Action Lab peeps get paid

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

Hahaha... hoo boy.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

hahahahaha

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

Same! Same! Same!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

honestly, i'm not either. the one i pitched was a cheesy action movie franchise as opposed to a horror thing

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

i haven't disliked working with ALE, but i'm eager to work with other companies, at least ones where the editors are actually paid and there's more of a structure to the business.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

Hadn't looked into the Full Moon stuff, though. I don't know if I'm built for horror comics, haha.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:34pm PDT

interesting.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:34pm PDT

Action Lab is weird. Sometimes it's just a timing thing. I know like 3 creators here, including us, who got rejected only to later be accepted

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:33pm PDT

Yeah I was wondering how the Oni things were going.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:32pm PDT

I also pitched Action Lab for one of their Full Moon thing... REJECTED!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda Massa and I sent out a pitch to a bunch of publishers back in March, but only got a couple of rejections back. It's a superhero satire thing so we couldn't send it to Oni. But I sent them a couple of other things.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

That's what I've been hearing! Fingers crossed and all that. We're gonna grab a drink down at SDCC, I think.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

Oh fuck yeah!!! That's fantastic. They're a super cool company.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:29pm PDT

I'm in talks with an editor at Boom now, though, and have submitted a couple pitches that I'm developing further. No guarantees, but it's a start!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:29pm PDT

Noooooooooo!!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:28pm PDT

Nah... didn't have my shit together in time for the deadline. Jackie and I wanted to submit as a team, which required 8 pages of art...

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:27pm PDT

Did you hear back from Oni yet?

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:26pm PDT

Yeah, that's what was worrying me. Wasn't actually expecting to turn a profit, but it's nice just to know what the numbers look like.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:25pm PDT

Hahaha I totally understand! I was blown away by the printing costs. Granted, it included all four of our issues and the TPB binding. But still.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:23pm PDT

Thanks for answering! Felt a little more comfortable asking you first, haha.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:22pm PDT

Yeah, we're not sure either. The accounting statement should clear things up, hopefully. I was expecting mid-August, so that fits with that. So many unforeseen costs in the accounting process.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:17pm PDT

So I dunno what'll ultimately happen with our royalties. Hopefully Q2's accounting will be kinder to us?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:16pm PDT

But no, we didn't get paid because according to the figures we didn't turn a profit! Frankly, I was a little surprised since our order numbers were about 4000 for our first issue and averaging around 2000 for #2-4.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:15pm PDT

Our accounting statement was actually late by about a month, but I wasn't expecting to get one until mid-Q3 anyway, so it was a surprise to see it in Q2.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:14pm PDT

But since Nutmeg #1 came out in April in Q2, your first accounting statement shouldn't be out until the middle of Q3 (so mid-August, I guess).

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:13pm PDT

But to answer your questions, no we didn't get paid BUT we did get our first accounting statement.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:13pm PDT

It's not too personal! I'm always glad to talk about stuff like this.

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, July 3, 2015 at 6:37pm PDT

Hey Nick, not trying to get too personal(?) but just curious if you'd gotten paid for Holy Fuck? I think I recall hearing (or seeing in the handbook) that payment is roughly quarterly + 30 days or something? Not like we're expecting much in terms of profit on Nutmeg, just wanted to see when we should be expecting to see or hear something on that end.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 5:58pm PDT

gotcha.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, June 4, 2015 at 5:30pm PDT

Not sure, honestly. Don't know what my schedule for the season will be, but there might be a slim chance I'll have Saturdays off, so...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 5:18pm PDT

i know you can't exhibit at the Long Beach Comic Con... but could you do a panel on Saturday of the show? Sept 12. i'm thinking about pitching them a panel.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:58pm PDT

Haha, yup. The only character I think who aged "naturally" was Garth Ennis's Punisher. He kept him as a Vietnam veteran during his run in the mid-'00s.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:57pm PDT

i understand the idea of hitting the reset button, but literally keeping a character at the same age while time appears to pass? THAT'S COMIC BOOK MAGIC!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:56pm PDT

i don't get it... confuses the shit out of me how that works.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:55pm PDT

Yup. And Bruce Wayne is perpetually 30.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:54pm PDT

We don't know how long they go for! Marvel and DC keep sliding the damn time scale. I think Peter Parker is still under 30, right?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:50pm PDT

Just imagine how many concussions a superhero--without a healing factor--sustains in a career. And how long IS a superhero career anyway?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:48pm PDT

Haha... If it were still under Marvel he could have had a post-superhero career training their street-level heroes and such.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

yeah, basically. very Sentry too. i like it.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:45pm PDT

Well, probably won't get the approval of the NFL with that angle, but holy shit it'd be interesting and topical. The Sport Knight Returns.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:43pm PDT

I'm sold. In fact, I have zero interest in writing after reading that concept. Instead, I now have 100% interest in you writing it.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:41pm PDT

But only he remembers that superhero career.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:40pm PDT

What if you open with him as a depressive guy in his late 40s suffering from Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy due to multiple concussions as a superhero?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:38pm PDT

It's what I've always wanted.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:36pm PDT

Of course. According to common law, I think your brokerage means that you now have a 50% stake in the royalties of this new non-existent run of NFL SuperPro.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:16pm PDT

That's the best course of action. Make sure to mention that I helped broker the deal.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

i'll just go ahead and announce it myself.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 5:14pm PDT

right? so yeah it's like basically a done deal.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 4:48pm PDT

I don't have that kind of clout, but they did so that Rush Zone comic, so...

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 4:43pm PDT

hahaha nah, i mean i'm serious about wanting to write it... not about you brokering a deal! haha!!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

I don't even know who to talk to but I can ask around!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

i want to write this so bad.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

i'm serious though.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

hahaha yeah it went on for way longer than it should have

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:20pm PDT

Wait. There were TEN issues?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

Haha, I'm not exactly a deal broker but sure, why not?

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

i mean, ALE already did that one NFL series...

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

could you broker a deal to get Action Lab the rights to NFL Superpro?

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

also, while we're on the topic...

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

i know, right?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

Envy of everyone.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

You would be!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

flyest guy on the block

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

decked out head to toe in loser gear

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

Hahaha. Go for it!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

the guardian did an article on them this year

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

good360

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

It's worth a shot. I don't even know which charity it is.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

work there for one month just to get the shirt!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

or i'll try to get hired by them next january

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

thanks for the info! maybe i can hit up that charity organization and see if i can make a deal to donate in exchange for one. probably not, but who knows!

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

It would. There's some kid out there who grew up loving the Bills for their four consecutive Super Bowl wins.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

*be like

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

(They actually do it every year.)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

it would like a dream come true to have one, right?

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, April 26, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

Haha, yeah, we've inquired about that ourselves, but they lock that shit down quick. I don't think those boxes even get opened, honestly. Unless someone on Ebay got one (through travels or otherwise), they're virtually impossible to get.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

a ridiculous question, i know

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

but do you know if it's possible to get one of those shirts before they get sent off?

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

i know that this year the nfl used a charity to distribute the clothing made for the losing super bowl team to countries in need.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 26, 2015 at 2:57pm PDT

i have an nfl question for you...

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:16pm PDT

Definitely! I went up back in 2013 pretty much solely to meet Eduardo Risso, who rarely does cons in the U.S., and it was pretty great. Glad to hear it's still a good show.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:14pm PDT

super cool. surprisingly small! like, maybe 2/3s the size of the Long Beach show. but the exhibitors were interesting and the programming was quality. i saw steranko, the old school swamp thing artists, and dave gibbons do panels. i mean, that's pretty sweet.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:12pm PDT

Yeah, I hear you. I was meaning to ask how Big Wow went.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:11pm PDT

Thinking about it. Just walking around the show, meeting people, hitting up some panels... like I did with LBCE and WonderCon.

Blackagar BoltagonnMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:09pm PDT

Doesn't look like it... My next appearance thingy will be Free Comic Book Day. I'll be at my local shop from 10-1, then at the Comic Bug's event from 2-whenever. At least that's the plan. Might head to Indy at the end of June to do a show out there with Jackie, but that's more or less what I've got lined up for the time being. You heading to Phoenix?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

are you going to the phoenix con in may?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:35pm PDT

i'm helping Jessica get some art together for the panel. could you email me some Nutmeg covers? maybe even a couple of pages you really like too. nickmarino@gmail.com

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

yep

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, March 20, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Agreed on all counts. I don't know how many distributors would be ideal to help make the system better, it's just frustrating that if Diamond messes up, retailers (and creators) just have to eat it.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

as for the ALE feeling you mentioned, i know what you mean. i sympathize with the sentiment for many reasons. thankful for the opportunity but like the direct market, frustrated by the problems.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

yeah the direct market is such a bizarre beast. so one-sided and full of problems, but at least it's better than no distribution. how many competitors would there beed to be for it to be better? because i rarely see Marvel and DC making each other better. but Image seems to challenge them and then things slowly improve. so maybe three or more distributors would actually diminish the problems?

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 19, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Just imagine what it would be like if there was actual competition for Diamond... Hahaha... *sigh*

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

Yeah, I don't see why (if?) they can't send the stuff earlier if the books are done.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

And just between us, it definitely did sour our feelings about ALE a little bit.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

exactly.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

so for our next mini, i'm gonna remind them when then need to print our books. diamond can wlasy just keep it at the warehouse for a few weeks, right?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

and then i got on jason's case to send #3 out on time... and it came out the wednesday after #2! hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

just between you and i, i also think that they send out the books too late. i know that happened for sure with the first two issues of Holy F*ck.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

Hahahahaha... fuuuuuuck.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

jason martin told me they basically always pick the final wednesday of the month as the release date and hope it'll make it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

yeah dude it's such a fucked up system with diamond and ale and the printer!!!!

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:25pm PDT

haha, we'll see!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:25pm PDT

fuck that could be brutal! but also fun im sure

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:23pm PDT

*dies*

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:23pm PDT

Yeah. And there might not be A.C., hahahaha...

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:22pm PDT

oh shiiiit!

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:13pm PDT

Looks to be about 10 people there, haha.

Blackagar BoltagonnWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:12pm PDT

Yeah, it's a gamble. My friends got a place off of Air BnB but it's not close to downtown.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

anything new with your SDCC plans? i think the hotel lottery is March 24th. i'm still 50/50 on trying to get a room from the early bird sale, which kinda sucks but ya know, guaranteed room! haha

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:26pm PST

Just wrote to her!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PST

you're welcome!

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PST

Will do! Thank you, Nick :)

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:21pm PST

good! here's Jessica's profile if you have any questions for her: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.the.comic.book.girl

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:04pm PST

That should work!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 22, 2015 at 2:03pm PST

tentative panel time: Sunday of the con at 12-1pm room 209, moderated by Jessica Tseang. you, me, Dan Mendoza, and Jamal

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:08am PST

oh and the name of the woman putting together the panel is Jessica Tseang. she has to turn in the names for the panel tonight, i think. so this should come together quickly.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 9:07am PST

cool, i found a few others. some people are really tough to get in touch with, though!!!! and some of their social media profiles are so out of date that i don't even know if they're still making comics :o

Blackagar BoltagonnFriday, February 20, 2015 at 8:53am PST

I'm: kagehito at gmail dot com. Jules Rivera had done some Action Lab work in the past but she moved to Florida last year. She was the only other person I could think of

Nick MarinoFriday, February 20, 2015 at 8:10am PST

what's your email?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:51pm PST

i emailed dave and jason martin... i figure it anyone's gonna travel down for the show, it would be one of them. but otherwise i don't remember many other west coast Labbers. Emily Martin is in Cali, but she's up near Dave.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:43pm PST

Dave Dwonch is in NorCal, but I don't know if that means he's down for Anaheim or not.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:42pm PST

Yeah, I was meeting a lot of them for the first time, so I'm trying to remember who all was there and more or less local.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:41pm PST

cool. i was trying to remember everyone that was in San Diego last summer. i figure they're more likely to show up at WonderCon.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:32pm PST

That's cool! I'll see you there then. Don't know who all from AL is around me, but I can do some checking.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:25pm PST

do you know of any other Action Labbers in our area?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:24pm PST

nice! i'm not exhibiting, but i'll be hanging out at the show. Jamal's one of the special guests of the show. Dan Mendoza will be there too. Ray-Anthony Height is in Cali but can't make it. that's all i know right now!

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:07pm PST

Do we know who all will be in town for WonderCon?

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:07pm PST

I'll be there. I'll have a table in Artists' Alley.

Blackagar BoltagonnThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:07pm PST

Hi Nick!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

i got a message from a lady i met at NYCC and she's interested in putting together an Action Lab panel for the show.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 19, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

hey James! are you gonna be at WonderCon in April?

Kevin Freeman, Nick Marino
Kevin FreemanThursday, November 19, 2015 at 10:21pm PST

Fabulous! Thanks!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 19, 2015 at 9:39pm PST

Previews just updated our release date for Holy F*cked #4 so I sent you the PDF.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 19, 2015 at 9:39pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:12pm PST

thank you!

Kevin FreemanSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

Awesome thanks

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 10:44am PST

just emailed you the PDF for Holy F'd #3 for comiXology. i was waiting for Diamond to update our shipping date, which they finally did yesterday!

Kevin FreemanFriday, June 19, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

Right on. Thanks!

Nick MarinoFriday, June 19, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

Sweet! So the plan right now is for Daniel Arruda Massa and I to ride down on Thursday morning with Dan Mendoza. I'm on a panel at 2pm Thurs called "Sunday Morning Funny: The Lighter Side of Faith-Based Comics". Daniel will most likely end up joining in too. I'll probably check into the hotel after that. And then on Thursday night at 7:30pm my friend from college is screening her film and I don't wanna miss that. So I guess Daniel and I will be available on Thursday from 11-1 and 5-7. But that's my only day with plans. Daniel and I are totally free Fri-Sun. Thanks!

Kevin FreemanFriday, June 19, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Sure you can now. I can start working on things

Nick MarinoFriday, June 19, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

Heh heh k cool. Will you be sending out another scheduling email as the show gets closer or should I just tell you my availability now?

Kevin FreemanFriday, June 19, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

Probably me

Nick MarinoFriday, June 19, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Who's putting together the SDCC signing schedule this year?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:47pm PDT

oh shit yeah 9, my math was off

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:47pm PDT

That's about right. 8 or 9

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:46pm PDT

That's a whole lot!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:46pm PDT

That'll be 8 years! That

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:38pm PDT

I think my first one was 2007 or so, so not as long as you might think.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:38pm PDT

how many years have you been going to SDCC?

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:34pm PDT

Probably so. You will have a place to escape to at least. That's important at that show

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:33pm PDT

Yeah for sure. I'm looking forward to it. Last year I just came down for a day, which was actually a wonderful way to experience it. But I;m in for the long haul this time. For a day or two, I actually considered driving home every night (it's about 1.5 hours, maybe a bit longer) but then I realized renting a car and SDCC parking would cost me pretty much the same thing as the hotel. haha

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

No worries. We will have a good time. Hopefully have a drink or meal together

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

I'll make sure he feels "guilty" :D

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:30pm PDT

You betchya. Daniel can do me a sketch if he feels guilty lol

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:30pm PDT

Cool, it's much appreciated.

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:28pm PDT

I think eight people requested badges and we have 10. So we should be in good shape

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:28pm PDT

Right on.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:26pm PDT

I'm at the Douletree. Well, by "I'm" I mean Daniel and I will be sharing a double bed at the Doubletree ;)

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:25pm PDT

I am at the U.S. Grant IIRC

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:25pm PDT

Probably one double bed. Maybe a queen.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

How are they singles exactly, though? I don't get that. What hotel has single occupancy rooms?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

Yeah, I ended up in the same situation... massively overpriced single!

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

I haven't heard about Bryan, but he usually has connections. I got a place this year, but unfortunately it is an overpriced single

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:23pm PDT

That's not a biggie, although it would be nice to get a bigger booth. But competition for hotels, badges, airplane space, restaurants. I am getting to old for this shit lol

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:23pm PDT

Did you end up finding a place to crash? I heard Bryan's usual place wasn't available this year (well, usual as in whatever place it was last year).

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:22pm PDT

Yeah, I'd imagine it's not getting any easier as ALE keeps growing too.

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:21pm PDT

It's always a lot of work. It's fun when I get there, but I always vow that this will be my last one. It's just a very exhausting show, and gets more difficult each year

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:20pm PDT

Are you looking forward to the convention this year? Or is it just a lot of work by this point?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:19pm PDT

Awesome! Mucho gracias.

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:19pm PDT

I will submit ours tomorrow, I think

Kevin FreemanWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:19pm PDT

Yeah, shouldn't be a problem.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:11pm PDT

A buddy of mine mentioned in passing that he was submitting his SDCC panel pass requests to today. I just wanted to check in and see if you were able to get Daniel a panel pass! Thanks :D

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 4:23pm PDT

Makes sense. I'm looking forward to it

Kevin FreemanMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

No, there won't be a moderator. More of a presentation really

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Kinda bummer but still cool that we have a panel. Are you moderating?

Kevin FreemanMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

It's Saturday evening again I think

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

Yeah I figured it would generic. Gonna be so much stuff to announce this year! What time slot did they give ya?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

Did you choose Berlin as the other destination? Or was it s happy coincidence?

Kevin FreemanMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

Yeah since we only got one panel it will be fairly generic. Berlin is my favorite place in the world. So much to do there. Such a progressive city

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

Whoa, Berlin and Tokyo. So cool! My buddy studied poetry in Berlin off and on for a couple of years and loved it. But that's the most I know about the city nowadays

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

Thanks so much for the help with the badge. Daniel and I really appreciate it. Will it be a general "what's new at Action Lab" panel?

Kevin FreemanMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

It's hopefully an every other year thing, alternating with Berlin, which I have done several times. I don't speak Japanese, but am self-studying to be at least semi-competent for next time

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

It looked like so much fun! I've never been myself, but it's in my to-do list. Will you get to go again? Oh and do you speak Japanese?

Kevin FreemanMonday, June 1, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

We have gotten confirmation for one panel. Sometime soon they will send me a form with people to be on the panel, and hopefully they will get badges, assuming everything goes the same way it did last year. I will put his name down on the list. This is the first time I have taken students to Japan, although I personally have been there twice. It went very well, considering this was the first time.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

Are the San Diego panels finally locked down? If yes, I'd love to try and get Daniel Arruda Massa a panel pass ot badge or whatever it's called. As of right now, we're still sharing my badge! I'm reaching out to you about it since we'd emailed earlier in the year. But if I should be hitting up someone else about it, please point me I'm the right direction! Thanks a ton. Also, Japan looked fucking awesome! How many times have you done that trip?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 6:21pm PDT

yeah it's super bizarre. it's weird too because now it's listed as another issue of the series on comixology instead of a trade or collection, but whatever! at least the content is right

Kevin FreemanTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 5:44pm PDT

Don't know why they change things up on trades

Kevin FreemanTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 5:44pm PDT

Well, it wasn't my fault :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 5:42pm PDT

oh it's all good

Kevin FreemanTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 5:41pm PDT

Awesome. Sorry about the delay

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 14, 2015 at 5:41pm PDT

they fixed the Holy F*ck TPB! thanks for your help with that :D

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 4:20pm PDT

yeah i agree with that

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 4:08pm PDT

Yeah I agree. But it seems they would save more time by just leaving it alone and using it as is

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

thanks for sending the email! i assume it's a time saving measure for them, which i'm totally cool with... but it seems kinda sloppy the way they did it.

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

they do this a lot with trades, for some reason?

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

I just contacted them and CCd you with your explanation. Will keep you posted.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

The version they posted is pretty different from the one I gave you to submit... if you want to compare their version and the version I gave you, they're both below. But you can also skip to my explanation underneath for the details. I downloaded the version of what they currently have posted: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B67SE_xwXHvsbmk1Q1VhZ3NJUVE/view?usp=sharing And here's a lower-res version of the one I gave to you: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B67SE_xwXHvsQzQwZzRTYV9yZ1E/view?usp=sharing Basically, it looks like they took my new collected edition PDF, removed the story portion, and replaced it with the versions that are already on ComiXology. That means all of the regular and variant covers are in there twice (because I had them in the back of this new edition) and all of our backup stories are in there twice (again, I put them in the back of the new PDF). Also, the new PDF was formatted to be read as one big story, but their version has all of the issue breaks and "To be continued"s in there. Oh, and the lettering in the new PDF was updated! Sorry for the long explanation. I appreciate any help you can offer with this! Thanks.

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

No I haven't heard anything. Remind me what the problem was again. I can follow up

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

oh totally unrelated, did comixology ever get in touch with you about the Holy F*ck collected edition? i'm just curious because they didn't respond to my email from last week and they're normally pretty quick about that.

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

yeah my research on that was inconclusive

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

it would be fun. Not sure if the publishing license is expired, or who holds it

Nick MarinoSunday, April 12, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

cool thx

Kevin FreemanSunday, April 12, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Hmm. It's something we can look into. I will pass it on to Bryan.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Of course, this is a bit far fetched... but Daniel and I are still very interested in the possibility. Do you think this is something Action Lab might be interested in discussing further?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

I know it's owned by CBS and the only recent thing they've produced was a mobile game in 2012.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Something that's been out of rotation for a while that we love is Mighty Mouse, both the old school stuff and the 80s animated series by Bakshi/John K.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

So related to our King Julien conversation from before, Daniel and I are still brainstorming some licensed properties we'd love to take a crack at.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

of course!

Kevin FreemanWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

Oh great! He is a big supporter of ours. Be sure to post it when it goes up

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 1:57pm PST

i just finished recording an episode of Comic Culture with Terence. it was tons of fun!! thanks for making that happen.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

haha you know what? i saw the movie at the drive-in and we left as soon as the big fight was over! he probably does show up!!! haha

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

anyway, yeah a total longshot idea, but i knew you had some expertise in the area and i was curious about your thoughts on the matter!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

of course. I know the King Julian character was used in the Penguins TV show from a few years ago, but not in the recent film.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

in particular, the cast they used in this recently Netflix five episode series.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

King Julian.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

well i really appreciate you sharing your experiences with me about this Dreamworks stuff. if you think it's an opportunity worth exploring, daniel and i would certainly be interested in seeing if we could make it happen. but i'm also (somewhat) aware of the hassles of doing a book like that, so i also understand if you think it's more trouble than it's worth.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

granted, the challenge of getting them to greenlight it sort of makes me even more interested in it now that i know they're really strict... hahaha

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

obviously daniel and i would be the one of least safe creative teams you could possible pair with a protective company like that.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

i understand. see, that's the other thing i wanted to ask you... how much flexibility there might be with interpreting their characters.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

even if you weren't, i would be very entertained by that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

oh its all good!

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

Drwamsorry in the car

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

i like this voice reply feature

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

hahaha

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Basically, I figured you having worked with them in the past was a cool connection and I was curious if you think pitching them on a King Julian mini might be an option through Action Lab.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

I know Titan is doing a couple of Dreamworks books now, but I don't know how comprehensive their deal is with them.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:27pm PST

What have you been thinking?

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:27pm PST

One thought is pitching some weird licensed stuff. I love the new King Julian show they did for Netflix and I I was wondering if that could be a crazy option...

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:27pm PST

Daniel and I have a few more issues of Holy F*cked to go, so we've been tossing around ideas what we want to do next.

Kevin FreemanSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

Yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Hey, I know this is totally out of left field but....... you were at APE when they had the Dreamworks license, right?

Nick Marino, Terence Dollard
Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 7:33pm PST

i checked out the pics! it looks like it's coming along really well.

Terence DollardWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 6:22pm PST

If you poke around my pictures, you can see a few pages. And thanks again for doing the show. When I finish editing, I'll send the link

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 6:13pm PST

thanks for the awesome conversation today :D i'd love to find out more about your story... it sounds super cool!

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 6:13pm PST

the email i tried to send you earlier today got rejected! so i'll just send you my message on here.

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 25, 2016 at 6:38pm PDT

Awesome news about the nickelodeon pitch

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, March 25, 2016 at 2:09am PDT

Lol

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:46am PDT

that would be fun

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:46am PDT

but we could also just yell a lot

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:46am PDT

well, when i suggested it to Jess, my idea was for us to share our experience making comics for different kinds of audiences and then weigh the pros and cons of it all.

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, March 24, 2016 at 11:17pm PDT

What's the plan for the panel?

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:57am PST

Yeah, its an annoying extra step.

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:55am PST

Fingers crossed, I don't want to have to the listeners to re subscribe to a new feed

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:54am PST

He didn't do anything for me, just told me what I needed to do.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:53am PST

I have no clue! All I can say is that their support was more advice than actual hands-on help.

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:53am PST

It can't be that complicated for them to switch the feed

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:52am PST

I was surprised that their support got back to me and quickly via that email linked on the webpage I shared with you.

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:51am PST

I messaged itunes to see if they could help, but I doubt it

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:51am PST

That sucks

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:50am PST

Even those instructions (which are for self-hosted episodes) tell you to create a new feed if you're leaving podomatic.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:50am PST

Yeah, looks like that's the only thing you can do. http://create.blubrry.com/resources/podcast-media-hosting/migrating-to-blubrry/moving-from-podomatic/

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:49am PST

Yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:46am PST

you were on podomatic, right?

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:45am PST

I should have used FeedBurner

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:45am PST

blargh!

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:45am PST

Going to have to delete the show and resubmit it to iTunes from new host

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:45am PST

SHIIIIT!

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, January 23, 2016 at 12:13am PST

I think I'm screwed because my old host doesn't give access to the rss feed. I can't modify it

Nick MarinoThursday, December 24, 2015 at 6:12pm PST

hahaha NICE!

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, December 23, 2015 at 2:01pm PST

Random idea while doing laundry: a one shot comic about a crisis event that has ten artists so every page turn is a "reboot". Heroes change costumes every page turn but story progresses until they save the day and reset things

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, October 8, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

Topics: Fialkov and working for the big 2 Moon knight and characters that can't keep a series a float Charging for signatures drama

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

topic?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

iz good

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Looking around 730. should be a quick 30-60 min show

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

sure. what time?

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

Random shot in the dark: would you be up for a quick podcast tonight? My cohosts are kind of busy getting ready for NYCC and may not be available

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, October 2, 2015 at 6:28pm PDT

Thanks :-)

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 6:06pm PDT

Gotcha. Well the research should be super fun!!! GOOD LUCK! I believe in you.

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, October 2, 2015 at 6:05pm PDT

I get to pitch ideas for each. If accepted I script then

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 6:03pm PDT

Sweet! One for each series?

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, October 2, 2015 at 5:58pm PDT

Writing back ups in the BOOM! Comics. Just 8pg shorts

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 5:57pm PDT

What's the gig exactly?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 5:57pm PDT

COOL! Rigby and Mordecai from Regular Show should be pretty easy, they've got a lot repeated phrases and speech patterns.

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, October 2, 2015 at 5:55pm PDT

Thanks for the suggestions. Never wrote a licensed property before, should be an interesting challenge finding the right voice

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:21pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:20pm PDT

i avoided sunday for James

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:20pm PDT

understood

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:19pm PDT

I'm on another panel Sunday and was worried the Ale would over lap

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:19pm PDT

Lol.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:18pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:18pm PDT

which you know because you just answered the email

Nick MarinoSunday, September 20, 2015 at 10:18pm PDT

yeah, i just sent out an email about it. we're approved.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, September 20, 2015 at 9:58pm PDT

Any news on the ale panel for comicaze?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

Yeah, send em my way! I don't have too much room (only a half table) but as long as their bag isn't too big I'm sure I can find space.

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, September 11, 2015 at 8:17pm PDT

Random question- can a friend who is cosplaying leave a backpack at your table with a change of clothes? I'm not tabling this year

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, September 10, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

My pc died so I only have access to the PDFs and not individual pages right now

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

cool!

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, September 10, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

I emailed her a PDF of issue 4 and the tpb cover

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

did you send Jessica a couple of covers and an interior page? just checking because i don't see any art in your folder for the LBCC panel on Google Drive!

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Sure. Can't wait :-)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

Got our official time slot from Long Beach Comic Con today for the panel. It'll be at 6pm on Sat Sept 12. Would you like me to email you the confirmation document?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

nice. this'll be my first year there. i hear good things.

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

Sweet. Always wanted to go to Comikaze

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i'm just waiting to hear back from a couple of panelists and then i'll basically send the same proposal to Comikaze

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Groovy :-)

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

LBCC said yes to the panel. i should be getting an official confirmation from them later this week.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:31pm PDT

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

Sure

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

gonna submit a proposal to LBCC for an Action Lab panel. you interested? i'm going to request Saturday Sept 12, i think.

Just read Aero-Girl #1 on ComiXology. FUCKING GREAT!!!!!!!!!!! Everything about it is spot on. Fun characters, brisk pacing, incredible designs... loved it.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 24, 2015 at 6:00pm PDT

good. i did my job well.

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, April 24, 2015 at 5:49pm PDT

Was tempted to just leave it in

Nick MarinoFriday, April 24, 2015 at 5:49pm PDT

gotta keep things interesting, ya know?

DeWayne FeenstraFriday, April 24, 2015 at 5:48pm PDT

aight, im ready

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:25pm PDT

cool

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:25pm PDT

No worries

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:24pm PDT

nah, she won't be done cooking for a bit and our apartment is super small. you'd hear it on the recording.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:14pm PDT

k

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:13pm PDT

No worries if you can't. Just got home earlier than I expected

Nick MarinoThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:13pm PDT

Possibly. I'll ask my finacee. She's cooking and I normally record in the kitchen, so I need to find another spot to set up.

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 23, 2015 at 6:05pm PDT

Any chance we could start at 630?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:27pm PDT

i'm not familiar with that... so they send out everything for you?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

If I do another I'll use one of those backer reward agencies to avoid the headache

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

that seems like a pretty good reason to make it a maybe!

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:03pm PDT

My mental we'll being lol. Last campaign was a bear. Still sending out rewards because we had issues with backer credit cards canceling and I lost my shipping budget

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:02pm PDT

hmmm... depending on what?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

Maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:59pm PDT

niiice! will you kickstart it?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

We're going with sports themed villains. We have the Fisher Queen, EL Gamberro (eveil soccer coach who uses bobbleheads to commit crimes), Blitz (an alien disguised as a football player - he's pg version of predator) and Striker a lacrosse themed teen who becomes ahero by volumes end

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:57pm PDT

dude, i love those layouts! looks fantastic.

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

Started vol 2 this week

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

Exactly

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

oh artists

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

He said jp( our regular colorist) would have done better

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

"i'm sorry this is so awesome" -- like that?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

Axur apologized for the coloring lol

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

so cool

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

Tpb cover

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

holy shit that's fucking awesome!!!!

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 9:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

seriously

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

it's the myspace of podcasting

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:48pm PDT

hahahaha! i used to use talkshoe back in like 2008. it's kinda antiquated now but back then it was like super high tech... you called in via phone and it recorded you.

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

i've never even heard of those before

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

i know some people who still use talkshoe. also, blogtalkradio.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

right? for real. also, video = way more work.

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:45pm PDT

lol, how else do people do podcasts? I'm not one of those video shows that uses google hangouts. I don't need people seeing my house!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

i say that as if i know for sure that you use skype hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

yeah, sounds good. i'm nickmarino82 on skype.

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

groovy. show is about 45 minutes. How about we start around 7pm?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

yeah sounds great, i'm down

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

SFB, found it on the CPN

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

I clip random stories that grab my eye through the month and we just randomly bounce around

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:34pm PDT

you usually just talk what ever is happening in geek/comic news.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:33pm PDT

i'm free! what's the topic?

DeWayne FeenstraMonday, April 20, 2015 at 8:32pm PDT

You busy thursday night? I usually record a monthly show with my brother but he's been travelling for business and I need guest host

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

hah! i fall somewhere in the middle, i think... i'm glad there are websites writing articles like that because they represent an important perspective that's been too quiet for too long. at the same time, i think there's an undeniable clickbait aspect to a lot of comics blogging nowadays. i don't read the mary sue unless someone links me to it or tells me about it, so i have a pretty low interest level in their writing overall.

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

I called them the "website that cries scandal" lol

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:57pm PDT

i didn't know they were the ones who put it out there like that. i'm checking out the article now..

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:56pm PDT

We basically called their Cho "scandal"story utter bullshit and claimed they did it for clicks

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

why's that?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

hahahahaha!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

cool, thanks!

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

We recorded last night and I think The Mary Sue is not going to be happy with us when the episode drops lol

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:54pm PDT

We've talked about having guest panelists on. I'll let the rest of the show know you're interested

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:54pm PDT

Thanks man! They've been fun to do

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:53pm PDT

i've really been enjoying the final issue podcast! if you're ever open to having a guest, i'd love to join in for an episode :D

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:48pm PDT

nice

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Groovy. Going to meet her tomorrow when I pick up my badge

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

i will. i think this is good but ultimately it's up to Jessica.

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

Let me know if you need anything else

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:23pm PDT

got it!!! thanks

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

Email sent

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 7:23pm PDT

ooooooo good question... i dunno about that!

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:44pm PDT

Btw I'm getting a guest pass for my niece and was wondering if she had to be there when I picked up the passes tomorrow

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:37pm PDT

cool thanks!

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:36pm PDT

Ok. I'm doing some homework right now, but I'll get you some stuff in about an hour or so

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:35pm PDT

sure, i can pull stuff out of the PDFs. as long as the quality is good!

DeWayne FeenstraThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:34pm PDT

Pdfs ok?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 6:33pm PDT

I'm helping Jessica get some art together for the panel. Could you email me some Aero-Girl covers? maybe even a couple of pages you really like too. nickmarino@gmail.com

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:21am PDT

good luck. fucking Diamond!!!!!!!!!! the direct market is ridiculous.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

no prob bob

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

that's April

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

there ya go

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

oooo that never sent

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

so i guess the date was March 18th?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

cause here's the PDF order form for April

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

nah, they just straight up fucked it up

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

maybe thats for books coming out in march?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

i guess they fucked up?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

that's what the PDF says

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

the previews book AG is in didn't come out until march

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

maybe they got the date wrong?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

yeah man i was a little confused by that

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

feb 18th?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

i mean, add orders

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

well "reorder" hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

Since Aero-Girl #1 is in the March 2015 catalog, it says the order deadline was Feb 18th. With that said, retailers can always reorder it as long as there are copies at the Diamond warehouse.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

I click on the PDF order forms and then look for the Order Deadline, which is normally a few pages into it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

I normally poke around this page for that info: http://www.previewsworld.com/Home/1/1/71/947

DeWayne FeenstraSaturday, March 21, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

Do you know anything about diamond ordering dates? Trying to figure out the cutoff for AG #1

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:08pm PDT

cool, i'll get that going.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:06pm PDT

Sure

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:06pm PDT

should we get group FB conversation going, like among the peeps we already know who would be interested?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:05pm PDT

haha cool. i had to google Scig to figure out who / what it was!

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:57pm PDT

I know Scig said we could get a block of tables if we want

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:56pm PDT

I'll ask vito if he knows who is a SoCal native

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:42pm PDT

yeah, probably. she's not local. michigan, i think. but she might be doing the show! i emailed her about that wondercon panel when it was coming together (she won't be there) so i could always shoot her a line about LBCC.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:36pm PDT

I feel like there is one more.... Maybe I'm thinking of Katie Cook

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:34pm PDT

i'm interesting in finding out our options! who all might be involved? you and david, me, james wright, dan mendoza, and ray height. anyone i'm forgetting?

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 7:24pm PDT

Just got the email for the lb show in sept. Did we want to do the Action Lab row?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 9:00pm PST

niiiiiiiiice

DeWayne FeenstraWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 8:58pm PST

Put in for a pro pass for WonderCon, but Jess said she could hook me up with a panel pass if the pro one falls through

DeWayne FeenstraTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:52am PST

Groovy

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:52am PST

i'll update you as i find out more info

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:51am PST

cool.

DeWayne FeenstraTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:51am PST

I'll look into the pro pass

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:51am PST

i don't know that 100%, i've just heard of some cons offering them

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:51am PST

is it too late to get a pro pass from there? also, there's a chance Jess might be able to get you a panel pass.

DeWayne FeenstraTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:50am PST

Guess that means I need to buy a Sunday pass now lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:50am PST

but Jess said the panel will be Sunday of the con at 12-1pm room 209

DeWayne FeenstraTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:50am PST

Awesome!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:49am PST

she said we can get you on there! i don't have any official confirmation as in a message from WonderCon itself...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 3, 2015 at 11:49am PST

here's the woman who's organizing the WonderCon Action Lab panel, Jessica Tseang: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.the.comic.book.girl

Dustin Murrell, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 3:36pm PDT

yaaah

Dustin MurrellFriday, March 20, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

So you publish like a real life, buy it at the store comic book?

Dustin MurrellFriday, March 20, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

I'm in the web publishing game. Monetizing people's content, etc.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

What are you up to?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

I retired the AudioShocker website last year. No more podcasting for me! Well, not unless its interviews and stuff about my new comic book, Holy F*ck: http://holyfckcomic.tumblr.com/

Dustin MurrellFriday, March 20, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

Hey, what are you up to these days, in terms of podcasting? Or even blogging or other online type content creating?

Wes Locher, Nick Marino
Wes LocherThursday, May 14, 2015 at 6:31pm PDT

Haha! No worries, dude! They hired me in November of last year. It's been fun.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 6:20pm PDT

excellent! pls forgive me for not knowing... i may have seen you post about that before but i sure don't remember! that's wicked, though. how long you been working with them?

Wes LocherThursday, May 14, 2015 at 5:07pm PDT

Yeah! I'm a freelance writer for Pocket Gems Games in San Fran. I do story development for them and write a couple of serialized choose-your-own-adventure type games. So games are ever present for me!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

that's really interesting. so do you think you'll write more games in the future?

Wes LocherThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

There was another comic writer doing it, but that didn't work out for whatever reason. They wanted to take the game in a humorous direction and I heard about it through the friend of a friend, got in touch and it was a good fit!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

So cool! How'd you land the gig?

Wes LocherWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:49pm PDT

The game was cool. 9 months start to finish on a part time basis. Had to design all the quests in addition to writing dialogue, which was outside my comfort zone, but the developer was happy, so I'm happy.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:36pm PDT

Nice! Saw a few posts about the game too, which is awesome. How long were you working on that project?

Wes LocherWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

The usual, dude... promoting Unit 44, getting a humorous/fantasy pitch ready with the same artist and waiting patiently as other talented people draw the silly things I've written!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Thanks!!!! Glad you enjoyed it. Whatcha working on now?

Wes LocherWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Dude! I listened to your podcast interview with Chris Thompson on my commute today. Hilarious stuff. Keep up the awesome.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

devastatingly sad

Wes LocherWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

That hot dog is acutely unaware of its future! It's almost sad, now.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

i can't think of a single reason why it should be smiling right now.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

also, why is that hot dog happy?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

thanks for sharing!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Wes LocherWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Thanks so much for taking the time to check it out, for the kind words and for sharing! I really appreciate it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

I'm gonna go tweet about the book right now ;)

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

And I can't wait to learn more about some of the crazy shit they had inside of that storage unit!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

I love the chemistry between Hatch and Gibson. A great odd couple.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 25, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

Thanks Wes!!!!!

Wes LocherTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 6:02pm PDT

Hey, Nick! I hope everything's great over your way. Just wanted to toss you the first issue of my comedy comic Unit 44 (out tomorrow from Alterna). Based on your sense of humor from Holy F*ck, and your daily expressions of creativity online, I really think you're gonna dig it. The gist? Inept Area 51 employees forget to pay the rent on the facility’s off-site storage unit, leaving the secret contents to be sold to a pair of backwoods rednecks at public auction. If you enjoy the rhythmic, vocalized, expiratory and involuntary action of your diaphragm contracting (also known as laughter), dive in. If you like, tell a friend. http://bitly.com/U44_1_Review Stay awesome.

Kevin Meek, Nick Marino
Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:39pm PDT

Yeah everything is good. Job can be tough but oh well, that's life

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:38pm PDT

kickass

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:35pm PDT

Doing new job, keeping man vs rock afloat with Victor, the usual

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:29pm PDT

you?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:28pm PDT

not bad, mostly being lazy

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:26pm PDT

how's everything with you

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:26pm PDT

you da man

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

always glad to help

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

we're starting to commit to stuff, so I just want to have all the info I can get

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

also, again really appreciate all the info

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

hahaha i understand!!! well i'm excited to find out more

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

even if it costs us a bit in lost sales, we like the story

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:23pm PDT

i think we're going to keep it as is

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:23pm PDT

thanks dude

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:21pm PDT

but you're some crazy fucks and i think you should go with your gut

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:21pm PDT

yeah i mean conventional wisdom says you could easily split up #2-3 into four issues

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:20pm PDT

plus we negotiate the hell out of it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:20pm PDT

that's nuts!!!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:20pm PDT

so weird

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:20pm PDT

we print at such large bulk that it only affects it by a few cents

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:19pm PDT

it really doesn't

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:17pm PDT

but i figure you knew that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:16pm PDT

by price point i mean your cost! just want to be clear about that, realized maybe i wasn't at first.

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:15pm PDT

so they like us

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:15pm PDT

we placed an order not long ago for 5000 books including 2000 trades

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:15pm PDT

we buy a lot a have a great relationship with our printer

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:14pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:14pm PDT

does the page count significantly change your price point?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:14pm PDT

well

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:13pm PDT

we know it's not economically efficient, but we sort of like how the story flows better at 40

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:13pm PDT

i dunno that we're a special case or anything

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:12pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:12pm PDT

but 40 pages of story for a single issue is NUTS!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:12pm PDT

so i think you guys are a special case and there's no reason why you should follow the rules

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:11pm PDT

and after diamond takes their 60%

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:11pm PDT

after costs and everything

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:10pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:10pm PDT

so if we distribute through diamond, we make $1.10 per unit sold at $3.99, $1.60 at a $4.99 price, and about 70 cents at a $2.99 price

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:09pm PDT

yeah, we pay about 50 cents per unit cost

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:06pm PDT

those issue are massively oversized

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:06pm PDT

WOW! okay, so that's a fucking game changer right there

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:06pm PDT

Story pages

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:01pm PDT

28 story pages or 28 pages with other stuff in there?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:01pm PDT

okay, so those are legit oversized issues!!!!

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:00pm PDT

you are the man btw, i really appreciate it

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 6:00pm PDT

the first one is 28 interior, second and third are 40 interior, 4th is 28 interior, and 5 and 6 are 36 interior

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:28pm PDT

but i realize you may have meant 32 total with cover

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:28pm PDT

cuz i forgot to specify that earlier!!! like, 32-44 pages of story would be exceptional per issue and worth promoting in your solicits.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:22pm PDT

and you mean 32 pages of story, right?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:22pm PDT

Owe you one

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:22pm PDT

Thanks man, and your friend as well

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:22pm PDT

With a page count like that, she says you could do $3.99

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:22pm PDT

200 gsm/75#

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:21pm PDT

Self cover

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:21pm PDT

A thick cardstock cover or will the cover be the same material as the interior pages?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:20pm PDT

Not sure what that means

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:20pm PDT

What kind of cover stock?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:19pm PDT

Were leaning 3.99 but also wondering if 2.99 would be better in the long run as far as building a base

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:18pm PDT

We range from 32-44 pages.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:18pm PDT

Also, she says $2.99 could be awesome but clearly that's a risky price point for you! But she says it would almost be guaranteed to sell more in the comic shop.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:16pm PDT

My retailer friend says $3.99 is better unless you have a 40 pages plus issue

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

How many pages is the issue?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:13pm PDT

The no ad didn't affect us, obviously hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:13pm PDT

We had no previews ad for Holy F*ck #1 and a hella expensive previews ad for Holy F*cked #1

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:13pm PDT

Also just want to say I really appreciate the info

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:12pm PDT

Were also debating whether to sell at 4.99 or 3.99. Do you have any suggestions?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:08pm PDT

Did they take an ad out in previews?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:07pm PDT

But our biggest boost came from a piece Bleeding Cool did on out #1 solicitation

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:07pm PDT

They sent out a review PDF of HF #1 a few months ahead of time

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

But they did SOME promotion

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

What kind of stuff would they do?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

I did most of the work

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

Not amazing

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

But they did a decent job with Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

They did a crap job of promoting Holy F*cked #1

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:06pm PDT

And by the end with Holy F*cked #4 we were under 1000, which was a bit on the low side for them

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:05pm PDT

Did action lab advertise hf well?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:05pm PDT

Yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:05pm PDT

Maybe a bit under?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:05pm PDT

However, when we did 2000 on Holy F*cked #1 they said that was about normal

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:05pm PDT

Were hoping when we launch to hit 2500

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:04pm PDT

Yeah that's great

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:04pm PDT

They told us that was very good for them

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:04pm PDT

That's awesome

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:04pm PDT

But when we did 4000 on Holy F*ck #1

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:04pm PDT

I dunno what normal is exactly

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2016 at 5:03pm PDT

Hmmmmmm

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:24pm PDT

like do most action lab books sell more than 1k units per month through diamond?

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:24pm PDT

how does a normal sales month look like through Diamond, unit wise

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:23pm PDT

got a question for you if you don't mind

Kevin MeekFriday, May 27, 2016 at 4:23pm PDT

hey dude

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 7:40pm PDT

definitely saturday for my panel and as long as i can have my shit ready, friday too

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 7:39pm PDT

Kevin MeekWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

what days you gonna be at wondercon?

Kevin MeekWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 4:29pm PDT

hey bud

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:19pm PST

hahaha!

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:19pm PST

glad we could find some middle ground

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

agreed

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:13pm PST

oh well, must not limit their audience too much or else i suppose they wouldn't do it that way every year

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:12pm PST

im not sure which way it cuts

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:10pm PST

but then again, people might not get holiday pay for easter since it's such a religious holiday

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:09pm PST

you'd think it would actually cost them more

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:09pm PST

i just figure they wouldn't want to limit the audience... my guess is they get a break on the space rental tho

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:08pm PST

yeah it's super bizarre

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

or on easter rather

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

its always weird to me that they schedule wondercon around easter

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

lol

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:05pm PST

i feel like they should definitely put the Gonzo panel on Easter

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:05pm PST

yeah it will be fun either way

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:04pm PST

i'm sure everything will work out fine

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:04pm PST

yeah, i mean we'll see i guess

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:04pm PST

hopefully there's no problem

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:04pm PST

kinda weird that Jessica already heard back AND with a timeslot no less! i dunno what's up with that.

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:04pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 5:03pm PST

okay, thanks! that would be rockin because both Dan and I will be on the Action Lab panel.

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 4:59pm PST

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 4:58pm PST

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 4:58pm PST

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 4:58pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 4:37pm PST

I forget... did you say the Gonzo panel is already approved for WonderCon?

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:38am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:38am PST

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:33am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:32am PST

Kevin MeekWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:30am PST

Cool, do you know their books?

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:50pm PDT

twins have a couple of people they're inviting too, i forget their names

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:49pm PDT

Forgive me for the 20 questions but after my SDCC panel experience, I'm trying to at least know what I'm getting into first!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:49pm PDT

It would be you and Vic, the Yuan twins... anyone else?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:49pm PDT

Okay, interesting!

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:41pm PDT

GONZO - THE OUTER LIMITS OF COMICS: Comics, like any art form, are only limited by the imagination of the creators and the patience of the audience. How do you pursue your vision if your vision is considered outside the boundaries of politeness, political correctness, and/or common human decency? How do you create a book that may shock, offend, or even anger without ignoring the standard elements of story, character, and dialogue? Listen to these creators as they explore the issue of telling stories that fall outside the boundaries of political correctness.

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:40pm PDT

here's the description the Yuan Twins gave for the app;

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:40pm PDT

basically about totally out-there books

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:39pm PDT

Well the time obviously works... what would we be talking about?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:39pm PDT

I just pitched Comikaze the same panel I did at LBCC. I figured fuck it, why not.

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:29pm PDT

its at 10:30 am - 11:15 on Saturday, Oct 31. We'd love to have you on. The Yuan Twins own a comic shop in Westwood, so it might be a good retailer connection to make ...its cool you're doing another panel too!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

Thanks for the invite! I'm exhibiting at Comikaze and I'm definitely interested in finding out more about this panel. The biggest thing for me is.... what time is it at?!?? I'm doing another panel at 4pm that day!

Kevin MeekMonday, September 21, 2015 at 2:52pm PDT

hey bud, if you're going to comikaze on October 31, would you like to be a panelist on the Yuan Twins' panel about Gonzo Comics? You're basically the perfect fit for it, and you get a free professional badge ...

Nick MarinoThursday, September 17, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 3:26pm PDT

i think you should definitely go for a publisher

Kevin MeekThursday, September 10, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

our next goal is to get distribution, so we're either going to try to find publishers or do the diamond distribution thing ourselves (pry in 1-2 years so we can save up)

Kevin MeekThursday, September 10, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

yeah dude, when i get home i'll send you my magical list

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

Kevin MeekThursday, September 10, 2015 at 3:22pm PDT

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

i hope it helps!

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

you did webcomics right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

yeah no probs

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

etc

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Mon Week 3: post the next story

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Tues-Fri week 2: use those days to get people ready for the next story

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

funny like the differences between white people and black people?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Monday Week 2: post a teaser art of the next story

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Tues-Fri post something funny reminding people there's a new story up

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Monday Week 1: post the story

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

for example

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

do it once every two weeks

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

if that's your goal, i wouldn't do it weekly.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

our goal is to have regular content so that people that read MvR dont forget us

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

instead of one page a day

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

personally, i think you'd be better off posting the full five page story on a monday and then promoting it all week

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

we're pry gonna play it by ear

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yeah, maybe every monday or friday

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

granted i've been out of the webcomics game for years

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

have you thought about posting the complete stories instead of one page a day?

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yeah man, we appreciate any insight ... we're still relatively new at this

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

those webcomic sites are good if you already have a fanbase, i think, or want to be in a commuity

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

or even tumblr

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

nah i mean i think using ur own site is better

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

we fear it may be too inappropriate for those sites though

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

our own website for now, but we're definitely open to using one of the webcomic sites

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

SWEET! your own website or one of the webcomic sites?

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

but volume 4 and getting ready for SDCC has basically taken all our time

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

we've got about five stories done, and we hope to launch in a few weeks

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

cool idea!!!

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

so basically each story is five pages and we'll post a page every weekday

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

it's staged such that the main character of man vs. rock, Buck Stone, was named Secretary of Reading Good by the Bush Administration so he's in a classroom teaching a bunch of kids who ask him to tell them stories, so he gives his warped version of things like "why is there no peace in the middle east" and Pinocchio, etc.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

the webcomic is going to be called "Buck Stone Presents"

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

its so different than my normal job that i cant help but love it ... plus its exciting when people like it, and i really cant get enough of that feeling

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

what's the plan for your webcomic?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

i didn't always feel that way. i used to hate the process. but i taught myself to love it because i knew i would burn out on comics if i didn't.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

but yeah, i know what you mean about the process ... it's been really fun, even when it's difficult

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

nice.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

after SDCC we're going to be looking to get a publisher

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

so that's basically been our jam

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

we're going to start a webcomic too

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

just finished volume 4 for SDCC

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

but that's just one of many projects. lots or irons on the fire. how about you?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

yes and no? i used to love the feeling of finishing a book, but now i think i enjoy the process even more. i'll miss working on it once it's all said and done!

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

thats great man ... must be pretty satisfying to almost finish it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

we'll probably start pitching it in a couple of months when it's complete.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

no publisher yet. the book has evolved so much that my collaborator and i are still figuring it out in a lot of ways. it's been a strange journey.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

you doing it with Action lab?

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

cool dude! can't wait to see it!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

almost finished.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

been working on it for a looooooong time

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

it's a big ol graphic novel

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

yeah

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

you doing anything other than Holy F*ck and Holy F*cked?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

idols

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

both of em

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

love that guy

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

A Mel Gibson film

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Foreword by Kirk Cameron

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

hahahh

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

yeah, Holy F*ck will be retitled Holy Fun

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Holy F*ck definitely fits in with the Southern Baptist culture of Wal-Mart

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

I hope they actually are being bought out by wal-mart

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

awesome

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

you're going to jail for a long time Nick Marino

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

yep

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

did i just violate some insider trading law>?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

OH SHIT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

might wanna hold off on that. they're getting bought out by walmart. wait for the announcement.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

ill invest in Action Lab stock to diversify my portfolio

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

ohhhhhhhhhhhh cool! it all makes sense now. well i'm sure it'll fail. spectacularly. in a good way.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

yeah dude ... thats actually our business plan for man vs. rock

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

hahaha cant say i've ever seen that!

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

yeah dude ... plus the covers if you want to go somewhere and the gambling ... there's something really weird about watching someone take out a loan from a casino of $25k that they don't have and proceeding to lose it all in like 2 hours

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

they really have. i remember back in the day the thing was that the food was super cheap and there were buffets everywhere. now it's like $5 bottles of soda. ridiculous.

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

theyve perfected taking your money in Vegas

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

oh yeah man .... they've built it pretty nicely ... still sleazy at heart, but looks pretty lavish

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

it's sorta like a big overpriced mall. the whole strip, that is.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

it's not as sleazy as i remember :(

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

i was just there back in may for the first time in years.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

i'm really curious to find out what it's like at amazing vegas...

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

i appreciate any out shouts! thanks :D

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

ill let you know bud .... and if you want, we'll spread the word about holy f*ck

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

not really! i heard wizard world vegas was pretty meh for most people. but i don't know anything about amazing vegas!

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

any thoughts?

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

this will be our first time

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

nah, not gonna make it to that con. have you been to it before?

Kevin MeekTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

hey dude ... you gonna be in Vegas this weekend by chance?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

as for SDCC, i've only been last year and just for 1.5 days. i thought it was crowded but manageable. i mean, they have the space and the experience. it was fun to me. but NYCC, on the other hand, i think that one has become a fucking mess.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

Century City... i had to look that up! i've only been out here for a couple of years and i don't know all of LA yet... i don't come up that way that often, but next time i am i'll give you a shout!

Kevin MeekThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

definitely should touch base at SDCC! Never been, but i hear its madness

Kevin MeekThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

i work in the century city area, so i live close to there

Kevin MeekThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yeah dude, totally understand

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Yeah it's kinda weird... you'd think it'd be easier to go from the LBC to LA because there are more buses and trains and such, but it's actually simpler to get to an Angels game than a Dodgers game. But I really appreciate the invite! We should still hang sometime. What part of LA are you in? As for SDCC, fuck yeah! Let's chill.

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 4:04pm PDT

re: Dodgers - no worries, totally understand what a bitch it is to get to Dodgers Stadium from LB

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 4:04pm PDT

We'll be exhibiting at SDCC too, so stop by and say hi

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 4:03pm PDT

Cool! Awesome to hear about Holy F*cked #4!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:57pm PDT

As for the Dodgers game... Yeah I'm a sports fan!!! Thanks so much for invite. But I'll be honest with ya, I'm down in Long Beach and I don't own a car. And taking public transportation up to the stadium is a ridiculous 2+ hour ride with like 4 transfers. So I must politely decline.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:55pm PDT

Oops! I meant slip.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:55pm PDT

Shit! I mean rock. My bad. Freudian slit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:55pm PDT

How's everything going with Man Vs. Cock?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 3:54pm PDT

Things are sexy over here at Holy F*ck headquarters. We're almost done with Holy F*cked #4, the final sue of the sequel. Having fun with the promotion of the book. Looking forward to Phoenix Comicon and SDCC.

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

also, wondering if you're a baseball fan and wanted to be my guest at the dodgers game on June 7

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

hows everything with holy f*ck

Kevin MeekWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 2, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

Kerby HawkeFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

That would be great! 󾌸

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

haha! that'll probably be more fun than going inside. want me to let you know if i hear of a free pass?

Kerby HawkeFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Just tomorrow as far as I know. This new job hasn't given me hours and I didn't have enough money to buy a ticket all weekend. I might just hang out outside like a bum on Saturday and Sunday.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

nah, i'm doing a panel on sunday but otherwise i'm just wandering around. you going every day or just tomorrow?

Kerby HawkeFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

At a booth?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

Chris Parlon, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I hear ya.

Chris ParlonTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

Yeah, that's weird how shit like that happens. I have a bunch of friends I haven't spoken to in years, for no particular reason.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

nah, it's all good. i think the audioshocker ending was also partially due to us beginning to grow apart, so it's been a pretty natural kind of thing.

Chris ParlonTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

That sucks, sorry to hear.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

i will the next time i talk to them! but to be honest, we don't talk that much anymore. i email kelly now and then but that's about it.

Chris ParlonTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

I love you, hahaha. I miss the podcast, tell everyone I say hello (Kaylie, Kelly, and Sophie), if they know who I am.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 7, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

i don't like it.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

I'm going to bed. Thanks for the chat and info!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

okay, i gotcha.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

1 hr north of PGH

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

well, i say that assuming i know where you're at... but i don't!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

HAH! k, maybe it was different in the city.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

yet half the highway is closed off

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

and no one is actually working!

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

that's the thing! the roads are fine!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

doesn't make any damn sense.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

PennDot = ScamDot. they're always doing road work yet the roads are always a wreck.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

EXACTLY!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

hahahahaha there's ALWAYS construction on 28

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

OMG i know. seriously, it was the worst. i never had em until i loved there!

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

and there's tons of construction going on on 28

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

Playing havoc on my allergies, tho

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

well at least you moved there in the spring! i think that's such a beautiful time of year in that area.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

beginning of the month.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

ask my wife, I'm clueless

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

when did you make the move?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

from what i understand, it's even changed a ton in the two years since i left

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

lol

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

I have no idea what's going on at any moment of the day.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

yeah, oakland is SO different.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

not like you need the help though... you've already got the ALE people in town and the retailers you've met! seems like you're often to an awesome start.

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

I will. I mean, it's changed considerably since I was in Oakland.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

anyway, if there's anything i can do to help you meet some cool comics people in PGH or suggest some sweet shops / events, i'd love to help!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

cool! it's such a great comics town. my buds from the Comic Book Pitt -- https://www.facebook.com/comicbookpitt -- have a podcast that you might dig, plus they're always talking about the PGH comics scene on the show and they're involved in a lot of awesome stuff like the local indie convention, PIX, and the Century III Mall branch of New Dimension Comics. (and they all shop at Phantom of the Attic in Oakland, which was my beloved LCS back in the day... i think i may have mentioned that to you before)

Vito DelsanteThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

yeah, for the time being.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

hey! so you're officially living in the PGH area now?

Nick Marino, Brenna Sydel
Nick MarinoThursday, September 17, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

no worries it happens

Brenna SydelThursday, September 17, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

Sorry about that, how obnoxious.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 17, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Brenna SydelThursday, September 17, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Yeah... just noticed that! Thank you!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 17, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

hey i think your twitter got hacked. i just got a spammy DM from it. thought you might like to know!

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:16pm PDT

I am a good judge, this is true.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:16pm PDT

oh it never stops! well, the work that is. i'll leave the awesome judgement up to you ;)

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

no worries. keep up the awesome work.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

awesome. thanks. i'll post it around tomorrow morning (well, noon your time).

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

just twitter. no tumblr for this gal. not nearly tech savvy enough. I'm zom_brenna on twitter

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

hahaha k. are you on twitter and tumblr?

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:13pm PDT

You can just tag me - or don't. I'm not all that concerned about it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

want me to name drop you in the posts? i can do full name, abbreviation, no name, or i can just tag you

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

Well. keep me posted. I'll be jazzed to pick it up.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:12pm PDT

I'm so happy to hear that you liked it! The sequel will be out this fall.

Brenna SydelTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

Are you kidding?! Of course. Share away. I loved the comic. it was hilarious and both well written and well drawn. I'm a big fan.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:09pm PDT

would it be okay if i shared your photo around the web? it's a great pic.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:09pm PDT

thanks for picking up the book! i hope you enjoyed it :D

the poodleheaded mother of the duggar brood called abortion a "baby holocaust" and we just kind of took the ball and ran with it

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:31pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:30pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:25pm PDT

it went well for a first official episode. a link is on the IYF page

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

no problem!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:21pm PDT

How'd the recordings come out?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:21pm PDT

I just messaged the company prez and he said he can get Daniel a pass. So I think we're good! I appreciate you checking in.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:13pm PDT

Sweet.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:10pm PDT

Thanks man. I may have a press pass through CBR.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:09pm PDT

i'll try to find out ASAP

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 4:09pm PDT

i have a press pass (long story) and i'm pretty sure Daniel is getting one from Action Lab but lemme check! thanks so much for the heads up

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

i'm going to submit badge requests soon, if not today.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

quick question: what is your badge status? do you have a pro badge already, and i'm just getting one for Daniel?

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

pretty much everything is tough to get it right. beer, soda, any form of writing.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14pm PDT

i'd imagine it's pretty tough to get it right

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:47pm PDT

it's a shame the ginger ale is taking more time than i thought to perfect

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

kidding. no worries.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

sweet christ! what kind of writer are you???

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

oh maybe you missed it when i told you before, but i don't really drink anymore ;) thanks for the offer, though!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:37pm PDT

no worries. have you got any preferences on beer? we're going to have a brown tomorrow, but i've got shit-tons of bottles. i figure i'll send you home with a half dozen or so bombers

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:36pm PDT

cool thanks

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

710 north to 10 east. Get off at Garfield. Head north on garfield until Alhambra Road (i think it's like three miles or so) and turn right. Make a left on Mount Vernon. The house is on the right. The office is in the backyard. my number is 626-409-5844. call or text me when you're close and i'll run outside and wave my arms around or something.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

i guess it's san gabriel and not san marino, but it's on the border.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

Erik's address is 1305 Mount Vernon Drive 91775

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:42pm PDT

Thanks! That's why I researched it... I mean, yeah, it was only a super short story but I wanted to sorta get things right :D

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 8:02pm PDT

I figured you had at least a general idea of what lucha libre was about from HF #2. Not sure if it was a Comixology extra, or if it was in the hard copy, too. Once again, fuckin funny shit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

i mean, there's always the side action with lucha libre, but you kind of have to seek it out

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

joking aside, one of the kindest and, as a writer, one of the more interesting people you'd ever meet

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

yeah, the guy in the teal onsie is my Mexican brother

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

i'll see if they're doing a fourth of july show. it's a little close to con, but you really have to see this

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

it's kind of like... just another vavoom

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

that sounds especially outrageous

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

crap, I didn't include the pictures where the chick dressed like paul stanley from kiss shoots confetti out of a strapon. i'll find them.

a different segment of lucha libre - los exoticos

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:23pm PDT

the guy/girl in the middle is my friend cassandro

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:23pm PDT

they've got an act at vavoom, cholitos

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:22pm PDT

holy shit! you gotta love the minis

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:22pm PDT

the coolest thing i learned about lucha libre during my research was fucking mini-estrella wrestling. that shit is dope! i love the wrestlers who can do all of the swinging around. so cool.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:22pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:16pm PDT

if you haven't been to lucha vavoom, i'm pretty sure i can do something about that

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:16pm PDT

nah. just an enthusiast. i wrote a couple stories a few years ago, and just started making friends

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:12pm PDT

lucha libre... i'm not too experienced. i studied up on it a bit for story i wrote but that's the extent of my connection to it. why? are you launching a wrestling career?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 10:11pm PDT

nah, it's cool, i had long hair for tons of years and donated to locks of luv myself. you gotta get it really fucking long to make that donation, though! i think i JUST made the cut. (heh heh cut heh)

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:54pm PDT

it probably won't come into play until october, but do you like lucha libre?

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

i was growing the pontytail to give to "locks of luv". shhh! don't let it get out that i'm a nice person. I get a lot of mileage out of being a foul mouthed fucker!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

there's a bit on his channel where he's trying to figure out what "dropping the kids off at the pool means"

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

it's not that interesting... probably one minute will be more than enough. just funny stuff.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

his version of no diggity kills me

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:42pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

that's all

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

if you get 10k followers, you get access to the soundstages

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

his channel is called "it's flula"

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

yeah i just read up on it a bit. sounds like a nice facility. a really cool community space.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

flula borg

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

so he put on the godzilla suit and we "fought' over the tokyo skyline

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

and there's this dude in "step up 2," but he's also this youtube sensation

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

still, a ramen bar, a computer room, and a cheesy tokyo skyline made of boxes

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

i was just there to check it out. and the sets were from this INSANE godzilla experience in comic-con 2013

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:38pm PDT

they had like three sets on the soundstage. the big one. they have two.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

last year, they did this promotion in conjunction with the godzilla picture

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:37pm PDT

they have mixers, free and open to the public, i think every wednesday. we should go. i'm still cool with the pr people there

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

hang on a second. if my douchebag former editor didn't take down my article... yeah, the youtube studios are killer

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:36pm PDT

good for them :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

i didn't know youtube had studios! offices, yeah, but not studios.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

Nuke the Fridge got too weird for me, and small as it is, developing the satellite show, and all we can do with it, became the priority

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

next step is youtube. i have a few connections there. they have a studio facility in playa del rey

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

yeah i saw that one

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

only recently. i think the other show that's going now is erik and justin talking about "the lizzie borden chronicles"

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

on itunes. they already are

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

yeah, actually, sattelite show is going to be a channel

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

still trying to work out how to do it as a sky[e based show

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

yeah it always helps to have your own gear. so will it be through the satellite show feed?

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:28pm PDT

the other big thing is that i have my own equipment now, so i don't have to worry about inconveniencing erik. but i want to do my show more often

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:26pm PDT

right down to jessica

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:26pm PDT

pretty much the same lineup as sdcc

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:25pm PDT

obviously, we need to get in the game, and fast

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:25pm PDT

in your faith

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:25pm PDT

so this weekend is a live recording of In Your Faith? or the Satellite Show? i'm still trying to get a lock on what's happening exactly! does it tie into SDCC?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:23pm PDT

hahaha there are no episodes?!? that IS impressive!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

still, erik and i work for Comic Book Resources, and for the longest time, i worked for a site called nuke the fridge

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:08pm PDT

the satellite show is a once a month thing. my writing partner, erik, took the name from his college radio show. so for him, it's a notch above hobbyist shit

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:05pm PDT

i must have really pitched it well. the satellite show is still a good place to start as to what you're getting into.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:04pm PDT

so it's still kind of a mystery to me how we got the sdcc panel.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

we've only done demos of in your faith so far. it's still pretty new. and we didn't know if we were going to make that arrangement.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

hey i've been trying to find some of the In Your Faith episodes. could you point me in the right direction? i found the Satellite Show (i think) but not your series.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

haha

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:10pm PDT

beautiful lawns though

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:10pm PDT

you just have to eat all the gravy you can before six at night or you're fucked

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:10pm PDT

now, if you're on a gravy heavy diet, san marino is a swingin' spot on the globe

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:08pm PDT

but it's pasadena adjacent, so there's civilization relatively close

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:07pm PDT

hahahaha

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:07pm PDT

san marino's kind of tame. rich people and old people. and old rich people.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:05pm PDT

detailed instructions to follow

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:05pm PDT

it's a pretty straight shot from the 710. hit 10 east, get off at garfield.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:05pm PDT

YES! been looking for an excuse to go there.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

basically, a little south of pasadena

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

no joke

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

cool - coincidentally, we're in san marino...

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

i don't mind driving up your way (though you still haven't told me where that is! hahaha) so no worries about reimbursing. i think about it like this is my collateral for not owning a car... occasionally car stuff comes up and so i just fucking reserve one.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:01pm PDT

and to answer your action lab question, i have a press pass as a hold over from when i ran a podcast network. i'm good for all days. and apparently daniel will be too if they actually give him a badge! hahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:00pm PDT

oh thanks for offering but i don't really drink anymore. my liver and kidneys no likey! hahahaha

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:00pm PDT

oh, and the beer is fucking awesome. i'll hook you up with some bottles

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:59pm PDT

if nothing else, i'll reimburse you for travel expenses

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:59pm PDT

not really a big deal, if it saves you some money. you shouldn't have to pay out of pocket to help me do my show.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

long beach is and isn't out of the way

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

ohhhhh okay i gotcha

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

just a taping of the in your faith show. i'll send along a topic list tomorrow

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:57pm PDT

nice!!! i bet that brewery will be sweet

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:57pm PDT

hahaha i feel like i must've missed details somewhere because i have no clue what i'm going to.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:56pm PDT

erik, robyn (my wife and producer) and I also make beer and are working on opening a brewery

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:56pm PDT

i'd love a ride but not if it's out of the way, though! i'm in long beach. did i say that yet?

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:56pm PDT

i have to be there an hour early, though. not just to set things up, but it's kind of become a tradition to bring a keg of beer to these things.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:55pm PDT

Ah! We can pick you up. Least i can do.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:54pm PDT

sunday is fine and so is 2pm. what's the address? and how long? i don't own a car so i have to reserve a zipcar and it helps to know my driving distance and the times.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:43pm PDT

still the same time, 2pm.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:41pm PDT

also, is there any way we can change from saturday to sunday this weekend?

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:39pm PDT

to clarify, is action labs only hooking you up with a one-day? because seriously, i'd be happy to hook you guys up. as you can see, the others are pretty much covered!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:38pm PDT

I'll never look at fish in the same way

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

that is some intense shit!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldMonday, June 1, 2015 at 4:33pm PDT

We do it out of my writing partner's office/studio, so I'll verify with him. Usually, we do it in the early afternoon. i'll come up with a list of what we're talking about and send that to you ASAP as well. One thing I know we'll be talking about for sure... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuKV2Z3eYTY

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

Saturday could work. Where and when? And for how long?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 8:08am PDT

Haha nice! Thanks.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldMonday, June 1, 2015 at 3:00am PDT

so, yeah! Daniel is TOTALLY welcome

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldMonday, June 1, 2015 at 2:59am PDT

It looks like the stage can handle us... ;)

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldMonday, June 1, 2015 at 2:57am PDT

and this is the room... http://cdn.membercentral.com/assets/SA/SA/userimages/auditorium.JPG

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldMonday, June 1, 2015 at 2:55am PDT

Sweet! How's your Saturday looking in terms of time? Oh shit! You've got to see this: So... we're off-site, that is not in the Convention Center. Somehow, I think we're going to be just fine,,, http://www.sandiego.gov/public-library/graphics/centrallibrary/centralconstruction35.jpg

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

Yeah I live in Long Beach

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSunday, May 31, 2015 at 4:15pm PDT

Nice! Are you in SoCal? We're trying to get together a pre-con recording next weekend.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 7:02am PDT

Cool, all sounds fun to me. I love a good discussion and exploring all angles of a topic. Thanks for including me!!! My collaborator, Daniel Arruda Massa, will also be with me at the convention and I'm sure he'll come with me to the panel. I bet he'd have some interesting things to say about the visual depiction of religious figures in comics, among other cool observations.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Excellent! I'll send you some pdfs. Not sure if Jess mentioned what we're doing, but part of it is taking the piss out of some religious comics. Now that you're on board, we can talk about navigating the potential minefield of satire.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 6:51am PDT

Yessssss sounds like fun! Thanks for the invite :D

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldFriday, May 29, 2015 at 9:56pm PDT

So i'm just making sure, here: you want to be on my panel about faith based comics? If so - FUCKIN' COOL!!!

Santino Arturo, Nick Marino
Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:26pm PDT

the crowd was not bad for a panel of artists arranged on the fly.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:26pm PDT

I was in a draw off panel last year and that was sooo much fun!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:24pm PDT

SDCC is great for after hours and stuff but the convention peeps in Phoenix are my fave

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:24pm PDT

honestly, i had waaaay more fun at my tabl at PHXCC last year than i did at SDCC

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:23pm PDT

The milestone highpoint of convention year.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:23pm PDT

which is pretty much what it is.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:23pm PDT

i just look at it as the midpoint of the convention year

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:23pm PDT

oh i'm not going for sure

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:22pm PDT

I'm jealous you're goin' to SDCC, ahaha. But yeah, PHX is a great show. Got a good crowd there.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:22pm PDT

and i had to do it!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:21pm PDT

"ohhhhhhhh"

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:21pm PDT

but when Dave told me we could do PHX again i was like

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:21pm PDT

honestly, i wasn't gonna do any shows this year, at least not until after SDCC

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:21pm PDT

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:19pm PDT

I'm even more hyped for PHXCC now.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:19pm PDT

That'd be tight, man!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:19pm PDT

Dave's fiance is from PHX so he might do some family stuff but Dan and i probably wont have shit to do at night

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:18pm PDT

yeah we'll be down to hang

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:18pm PDT

We should get drinks some time if you guys are free!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:18pm PDT

i'm not sure on all the details tbh. Dave is organizing most of the stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:18pm PDT

heh heh well then you def gotta come hang with us!

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:17pm PDT

You and him are why I was team Danger Zone ahaha

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:17pm PDT

Dan's stuff is awesome.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:17pm PDT

Yooooo!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:17pm PDT

with Dave Dwonch from Action Lab again. i think our buddy Dan Mendoza will be with us too.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:42pm PDT

Sweet! Looking forward to it, man! Who you tabling with at the con, btw?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:38pm PDT

Yes, please share when they're done!

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:31pm PDT

I love the stress of making entertainment! and I'll def be attending. I gotta see what you'll have at your table. And the projects I got are going to be awesome. If you want to see the scripts when they're done, I'd be amped to see what you think!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:29pm PDT

So exciting and intriguing and awkward and entertaining and nerve-wracking all rolled into one.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:29pm PDT

The pitching process was fun! I probably put way more work into it than I needed to, but it's all a learning process for me.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

Sounds like you got some kickass stuff in the works. That rocks.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

Are you still gonna be at PHXCC? I hope so!

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:45pm PDT

I'm drawing two, and got an artist for the third. How was the pitching process? Exciting?

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

Just been writing away at my scripts. Planning to release three titles in November for a small local con since I couldn't get in on PHXCC.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:42pm PDT

How bout you? Whatcha working on?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:42pm PDT

It's going well, thanks! Just pitched a short to Nickelodeon today. Waiting to hear back from IDW on one of books. And KUTE Crew is actually happening! I'll show you preview art at PHXCC.

Santino ArturoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:47am PDT

Yo, man, what you been up to! How's the creative stuff going?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

yeah good idea!

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Ah, smart move. I wanna try that. I was gonna pitch to Action LAb next year.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

trying out new business and creative relatiionships

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

diversification

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Any reason why not Action lab?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

My stuff is going well! Bout to pitch one of my properties to Shadowline and then prep it to go out to other publishers.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

I've never read it so I can't comment but its a cool concept

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

Any way, how is your super hero idea?

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:24am PDT

(Though, I will credit, the villains are done well, I jsut wish there was more meat in the plot)

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

Honestly, their missions are so vague and unimpacting, the only thing keeping the series interesting is the fact it has a roster of established villains.

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Thanks, man! I'm pretty sure I can make it good and different than the suicide squad comic right now.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

cool! nice mash up.

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

It's about a team of Dark Ages/ Conan era style assassins and career criminals who get forced into working for a kingdoms special task force and have to stop cult worshipping terrorists.

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

Basically it's what would happen if suicide-squad, rainbow six, and dungeons and dragons created a fucked up homunculus..

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Yeah, gonna redraw the original issues and release 'em online for free, is the new plan. As for the suicide squad idea.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

tell me more about the suicide squad ripoff!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

last i remember was you saying you're redoing Pink Lasers (right?) and working on a few smaller projects with collaborators.

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

liked*

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

Not much of a rip-off, but I liekd the format of the idea ahah.

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

Well, Pink Lasers is still happening, but I told you about the suicide squad rip off?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

i mean, you told me not that long ago but i mean an update

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

as for what you're working on, i'd still love to know!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

yeah dude do you own!!!! that would rock :D

Santino ArturoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 8:28am PDT

Oh my god, I'm jealous of it. I'm going to make an attempt to do the same thing. So, I re-read our conversation and saw that I totally overlooked that you asked what I was doing ahahaha.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 4:33am PDT

i wrote it :D

Santino ArturoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 6:24pm PDT

So who actually wrote it?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

hahaha thanks! we had a lot of fun making that

Santino ArturoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 5:24pm PDT

I love the biography of how you two met.

Santino ArturoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 5:22pm PDT

Dude, the end segment of HF'd is amazing.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

thanks. it should be pretty chill

Santino ArturoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

Good luck at the con, though.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

heh heh thanks :D

Santino ArturoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

Really diggin' your covention flier for LBCC, by the way.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

nice

Santino ArturoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

Dude, if you like Synth-wave music and 80-90's action movie rediculousness, you'll love it. It reminds me of what movies used to aim for.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 10, 2015 at 7:05am PDT

cool how was it?

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

let me do a pin up for your koala story. Also late response ,sorry, went and saw Turbo Kid

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

I actually like that idea

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

I'm gonna work on that too

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

But I was thinking about this Koala thing...

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:40pm PDT

But a fucked up one

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:40pm PDT

It's a superhero thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:40pm PDT

There's no publisher so there's no restrictions like that, but I prefer to wait until things are a bit further along.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

I assume you're not allowed to say much about your other ideas and projects?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:26pm PDT

that's the kind of thing id love to draw if i wasnt so lazy

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:25pm PDT

I would read it if you were behind it. I wouldn't trust many people to write that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:24pm PDT

actually i would definitely read that

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:24pm PDT

*though i would probably read that, i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:22pm PDT

we're definitely not doing that. thought i would orobably read that.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

Because when you describe Holy F*ck it sounds just as insane.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

hahahaha! good response.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:21pm PDT

I don't know if you are joking or not.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

yeah its talking koalas under water fighting evil magic squids. kinda like Hamlet meets SeaQuest DSV.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:18pm PDT

oh shit, really?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:17pm PDT

yeah we're already onto the next thing

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

Yeah, I'd imagine it would be a short series any way. But that's good, 'cause now you can make some other cool shit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

What are you working on now?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

Set the tone right off the bat :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

I really wanted my first published project to a be an in your face punk kinda thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:14pm PDT

I appreciate the support. Every order helps! (Though I think these four issues of Holy F*cked will be the end of this story for us... not big enough numbers to justify a threequel.)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:13pm PDT

WHOA four subscribers for our book for one shop is pretty fucking rad!!!

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

In your face and not into censorship.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

It's like punk rock comics.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

Haha, no problem. We'll keep orders for it going. We have four subcribers. I think you guys are making a very good book.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

My intent was to have the asterisk cover up his cock... but then Daniel sent me the art and BAM massive Jesus dong.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Thanks for ordering some for the shop! MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

Also, I love that you censored the word "Fucked" with a jesus dick.

Santino ArturoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 6:58pm PDT

Yo, dude! I bought a few issues of Holy Fucked for the store I work at.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

Bummer about images not sending but big thumbs up to all of the collabos!!! That's excellent.

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

I just tried to send images, but they won't work.

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:22pm PDT

So far, Daisey and Rae Ann, who you met at PCC. There's two other artists that agreed to work with me (good friends), but i need to write for them first. Uhhh, other than that, I still draw my own shit.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:08pm PDT

Who are you working with on your upcoming comics?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:08pm PDT

News??? Hmmm... probably not. At least, no new publishers or anything like that. But lots of comics getting made! We'll find publishers later, ya know?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:07pm PDT

Sounds like fun, exciting stuff!

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:25pm PDT

Any cool news since SDCC?

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:17pm PDT

I've been practicing some new narrative techniques aaaaand the new title for the company I edit for is looking SWEET.

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:16pm PDT

I'm supposed to write three new stories. It'll be cake when I get the ball rolling (got a new computer, so any day now).

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

how're comics going?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:14pm PDT

they've been $1 a pound for like a month now

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:14pm PDT

yeah it must be fucking grape season around here or something

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:13pm PDT

I'm jealous of that grape life, though.

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:12pm PDT

dude, I'm all about that procrastination life right now. Mainly cause I'm tackling three different titles, but I will live.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:11pm PDT

how bout you?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 9:11pm PDT

cooooooooooooooooooooomicssssssss and procrastination and more comics and lots of grapes (i bought like 7lbs of cheap grapes last week and i feel like i'm eating 2lbs of grapes day or something)

Santino ArturoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 8:00pm PDT

Hey, dude, whats goin on!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

hmmmmm hard to say! probably 7 Star Sky Flash Kick. that's my latest album of all originals. of the mixtapes / sampled beats? Superior Tech has the best of those in my opinion. but i look forward to finding out which tracks you like and don't like! thanks again for listening :D

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 10:13pm PDT

I will probs try to listen to it all. Which one is your favorite?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 10:07pm PDT

NICE! I'm stoked to know that you dig it.

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

That was tight stuff to draw to.

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 9:49pm PDT

Only had room on my tablet to get smart bomb

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 9:42pm PDT

what stuff didja listen to?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

thanks!!!!!

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 8:23pm PDT

Yo*

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 8:23pm PDT

Your music is badass

Santino ArturoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 8:23pm PDT

You dude

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:35pm PDT

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:32pm PDT

This is pure gold.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:28pm PDT

it's actually been a pain in the ass because my name is really common.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:28pm PDT

nah, i was just around when gmail started. it was pretty easy because everyone was using hotmail and yahoo back then.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:27pm PDT

Damn. Getting a straight forward email like that must have been lucky as hell.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:26pm PDT

sure! nickmarino@gmail.com

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:25pm PDT

Seems to have paid off hah. Would you mind reviewing a script I plan to submit when it's all polished?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:24pm PDT

i had to make a lot of shit before i could make some okay stuff ;)

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:24pm PDT

well i've been cartooning (poorly) for 25ish years. i started writing scripts in 2004, making webcomics in 2008, and self-publishing in 2009. it's been a long journey.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

nothing wrong with making your own typeface, but i think it that's something worth diving into once you've really got some lettering chops.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

I will totally check it out. How long you been making books?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

i'd recommend using Blambot's free fonts

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:21pm PDT

But I feel you. I wanna try to make my own typeface for future issues.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:21pm PDT

Letterer* I had my friend do it and he was super new to it.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

The lettered was... bad.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Yeah the production timeline on that was shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

not just you, any creators, i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

gotta get your lettering game together. so crucial.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

well, i flipped through it. to be honest, the lettering was really tough to read on my screen.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:19pm PDT

Wait you read pink lasers? Ahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:19pm PDT

I just downloaded it from gumroad. I don't think you have terrible taste! I just think you need to keep cranking and perfecting your craft.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 6:19pm PDT

Cause that kinda stuff is genius to me. I also may have horrible taste.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 6:18pm PDT

It makes me really wanna redraw pink lasers and try submitting the first issue.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:46pm PDT

i'm a terrible example! normally, i'll have the basic premise of a story pop into my head and i'll write it down. if it's good, it'll stick in the back of my mind for months or even years. in the case of Holy F*ck, it was years. when Daniel heard me podcast about something called "The Bible 2", he said he wanted to draw it! (we didn't know each other at the time... it was a freak occurrence.) then we replotted the story together and voila, here we are.

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:34pm PDT

Thanks, man! Hopefully we can make something good to submit. Now we just gotta write something hilarious. How'd you come up with your concept?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:33pm PDT

Sweet! Yeah, the email submission thing is super easy. I dunno how many people have been greenlit that way, but it worked for me! Here's the page: http://www.actionlabcomics.com/faq/

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:32pm PDT

My co writer Gordon was super amped about making somethin like holy f*ck

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:31pm PDT

Ha! Yeah we are definitely gonna buy it. I also feel really compelled to submit some work to Action Lab.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:30pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:30pm PDT

not the local emergency room

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:30pm PDT

ER crew

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:30pm PDT

It was great hanging with you too!!! I really enjoyed learning about what you do. I'm honored that the ER is digging Holy F*ck. *Sequel coming soon!*

Santino ArturoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 5:14pm PDT

Hey, Nick! It was awesome to hang out with you at the con. Your book has the entire evil robo team geeking out over it.

Kennedy Cooke-Garza, Nick Marino
Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:30am PDT

I'll definitely send em your way!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:29am PDT

OKAY!!!!!! Have fuuuun :D Can't wait to see more pages!

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:29am PDT

Cool well thanks for talking shop with me man, I better get back to work :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:27am PDT

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:26am PDT

I wouldn't have even though of that, but yeah that's a whole other option

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:25am PDT

that they'll probs like the fact that they could also do a webcomic collection of SB

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:25am PDT

but i think i mentioned before

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:25am PDT

i dunno what they'd want exactly

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:25am PDT

i totally think you should

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:24am PDT

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised. Although I'm thinkin of including some samples from the webcomic in the pitch to kind of show the tone/type of humor

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

but that's pretty rare

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

i've seen a few publishers ask for 8

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

i finally found the page

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

yep

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:23am PDT

Looks like around 5 pages, sounds pretty reasonable

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:21am PDT

Ohhhh let's see what they're seeing on the site nowadays

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:21am PDT

Actually that reminds me, I was gonna ask you - about how many color pages like this do you think Action Lab would need to see before considering publishing? Like I've never actually sent a real pitch before

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:21am PDT

Yeah, with good reason

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:19am PDT

Thanks! I'm finally feeling excited about getting it done now

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:18am PDT

love it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:18am PDT

your page is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:18am PDT

yeah, he's evolved so much!!!!

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:13am PDT

Me I've got this page I just now finished. Forgot how much longer working in color takes

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:13am PDT

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, May 18, 2016 at 8:12am PDT

Haha nice, that's awesome. Dan's art has definitely gotten a lot better since the first Holy F*ck.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 9:54pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 9:54pm PDT

And then there's this...

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 9:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 9:53pm PDT

I feel like I'm endlessly lettering nowadays, never fucking seeing an end!!! One project that's about to wrap up after five years and another that just can't seem to find a publisher. If you're curious: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsVHFMbE0ydnB5SkE

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 9:49pm PDT

Ooooo cool, I hope the mini comes out great!!!! And I hope HeroesCon rocks.

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 6:03pm PDT

Heeey I totally missed this a while back. I've been pretty badly disorganized this year so far. 😆 Anyway I'm actually just now getting around to working on pages since I reworked the script a couple of times. Hoping to have a little mini or something to show at HeroesCon. What about you? What you been working on?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 19, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

hey! how're your pages going? still workin on the SB comic book pitch or did ya move onto other stuff?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 12:11pm PDT

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaFriday, April 8, 2016 at 12:05pm PDT

LOL yeah I've seen that before. Another one of their creepy data-mining techniques, as if they don't have enough info on all of us already.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

UMMM... what?!? is that a normal thing that Facebook does now???

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

just got this fucking weird poll on my FB sidebar!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:18am PST

Whatever happens, I'm sure it's gonna turn out fucking awesome. I suspect that feeling will always be there a little but shiiiit I dunno! It might actually go away.

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaSunday, January 31, 2016 at 4:15pm PST

That's a good idea thanks dude! I should probably just quit deliberating over it and just do it already though. That feeling's probably always going to be there.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:16pm PST

Black and white. Cheap and easy. Great practice and maybe even an awesome little extra for your eventual collected edition if it turns out great. ;)

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:13pm PST

Do a minicomic. An eight page story in this format. Something you can print up super cheap and sell for like a buck (or even give away) the next time you're exhibiting somewhere.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:11pm PST

I wouldn't suppose to know exactly what will be the breakthrough for you in terms of feeling confident about your pages, but I'll share just a teeny suggestion based off my own experience...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:09pm PST

I think it's perfectly normal to feel like transitioning from one layout to another is challenging.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:08pm PST

So that's a good sign!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:08pm PST

I don't know what the jokes are on the pages but I can feel the humor in them, like they make me smile without any text.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:07pm PST

I love what I'm seeing!!!!!!!

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 5:11pm PST

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 5:08pm PST

Hahah, honestly, I haven't finished a single one yet. I keep scrapping and re-writing certain parts and still haven't finished writing the overall arc yet. Seems like transitioning from writing for the web vs full books is a bit harder than I would've thought. Or maybe I'm just overthinking things.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:05pm PST

yooooo how's everything going? i'd love to get a sneak peek at the superbitch comic book pages if you think that's a possibility :D

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Heeey just a heads up, I'm having to update Skype right now, so it might take a couple minutes :/

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

Sure thing!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 11:43am PST

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 11:27am PST

Hey sorry about that, I always tend to get forgetful when I go visit home. How does around 1pm Eastern (11am your time) on Wednesday sound? My skype is kcookegarza :)

Nick MarinoMonday, December 7, 2015 at 7:07pm PST

Hey bud, just following up on our convo from a couple of weeks ago. I'm around all day tomorrow and the first half of Wed if ya still wanna chat about comics and publishers.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:56pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:56pm PST

emailzed

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:52pm PST

Awesome, I'll keep an eye out for it. :)

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:41pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:41pm PST

Cool, I'm still interesssssted. I'll shoot you a fresh email tonight.

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaSunday, November 22, 2015 at 5:24pm PST

Seriously! Damn haha yeah it must have gone to my spam folder or something and I just forgot to follow up. It's been kind of a hectic year for me, heh. But anyway, I was just gonna say if you're still interested in collaborating on something sometime in the future, I'd still be open, especially now that things have calmed down a bit for me. 😊

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 4:39pm PST

maybe it got spammed?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 4:38pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 4:38pm PST

sent it back in June!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 22, 2015 at 4:38pm PST

yeah

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaSunday, November 22, 2015 at 4:05pm PST

So I'm not sure what reminded me, but I kind of just realized the other day that I don't think I ever got your email, lol. Did you ever end up sending that pdf?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

Anyway, emailing you now.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

Well I'm fucking stoked to hear that it's selling out!!! What's the shop?

Kennedy Cooke-GarzaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

Hey dude, I do have a lot on my plate at the moment, but I'm always open to hearing about new projects! Could you tell me a bit more about the pitch and your collab style? And yeah I'd love to get a PDF of Holy F*ck. (I've seen it a couple times at my local shop and been meaning to pick it up, but I think it keeps selling out!) My email is kcookegarza@gmail.com. Just shoot me the details when you get the chance.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 7:59pm PDT

have you read Holy F*ck? if not, i'd be glad to send you a PDF to check out. just hit me up with an email addy. i'll even give ya a top secret peek at the sequel if you promise not to upload it to Napster or Limewire or whatever the kids are using nowadays. i'd love to describe my comics collaboration style to you too but it's kinda specific and detailed, and if you're not interested then there's no use in getting into it. but if you are, i'd be glad to tell you more about how i do my comics thang :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 7:58pm PDT

i know you've got a day job, the webcomic, the patreon, and a life. i totally understand if you're too busy or just not interested. so be brutally honest plleeez! but i'm always hunting for smart collaborators that i might gel with. and honestly, i don't find that many. but i think there's a chance we might work well together based on your sense of humor and work ethic.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 7:58pm PDT

yo bro!!! gots a question for ya... would you be interested in developing / collaborating on a comic book concept that we could pitch to publishers? i dig your art, love the jokes in your comics, and i really respect your hustle. your consistency and grind with superbitch is top notch.

Amanda Lundberg, Nick Marino
Amanda LundbergTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

okay!! thank you :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

he also says Bone

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

Amanda LundbergSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

His birthday is the 2 nd of November 󾌵

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

Ooooooooooooooo good question... I feel like he's mentioned stuff to me but I forget it now. I can be sneaky and talk about something like that with him, though! How long do I have to find out?

Amanda LundbergSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Hey Nick! Soon it's my beloved weirdos birthday and I was wondering if there is any comic book that you know he wants? // wanna support his neediness

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

I WILLLLLL!!!! :D

Amanda LundbergTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

Joshua HenamanThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:02pm PST

Yeah, I hear you. Bigfoot sits right in that PG-13 area (issue 3 is basically all about an alien woman who wants to break a 1000 year old curse by mating with the big guy.)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 6:50pm PST

haha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 6:50pm PST

i'm sure it'll work out just fine if you come to the Action Lab one at 5:50-ish when the other panel finishes! your book is in that interesting gray area anyway, so we can talk about that when you get there :D

Joshua HenamanThursday, March 10, 2016 at 4:54pm PST

The "How to get Press Coverage" 5:00-6:00 and the " Action Lab one 5:30-6:30.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 4:31pm PST

ooohhhhhhh noooo! which of your panels overlap?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

great way to say it

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

YES

Joshua HenamanFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:05pm PDT

He has no joy.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

i wonder if he just hates every book he reviews hahaha!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

maybe he bought them at a con?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:04pm PDT

WEIRD!!!!!!!!

Joshua HenamanFriday, September 25, 2015 at 8:22pm PDT

Strength in numbers for our earlier work! Florida Geek Scene (the same guy, Peter Schmeiser) HATED Bigfoot. http://www.floridageekscene.com/review/bigfoot-sword-of-the-earthman-1/ http://www.floridageekscene.com/review/bigfoot-sword-of-the-earthman-2/ http://www.floridageekscene.com/review/bigfoot-sword-of-the-earthman-3/ And what's amusing is I never sent this guy the books. I have no idea how they ended up there.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

no prob bob

Joshua HenamanSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

Excellent, thanks for the assist!

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

day *of our release

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

BUT I also know Daniel has picked up his books from his local Dutch comic shop the day or out release (well, actually, it may have been Thursday and not Wednesday... but it was the week or release, for sure).

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

There can be a slight delay in shipping depending on the store and the location...

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

I can't speak for every single shop out there, but as far as I know the stores in Europe and Australia use the same stuff to order from Diamond as American shops.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

Don't mind at all!

Joshua HenamanSaturday, September 19, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

Nick, quick question for you if you don't mind. Is Diamond Distribution the same internationally as the U.S.? I know they distribute worldwide, but is it the same catalog w/the same codes? Or is there some delay in when they get something vs. when it's released here? I have an email out to Dave, but it may take awhile for him to get back to me. Thanks again! Josh S. Henaman

Joshua HenamanMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:04pm PDT

Got it, thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

k sending now

Joshua HenamanMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:39pm PDT

Excellent! Definitely forward me the confirmation just in case there's a mixup when I check in. My regular email is jshenaman@gmail.com Cheers!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

Got our official time slot from Long Beach Comic Con today for the panel. It'll be at 6pm on Sat Sept 12. Would you like me to email you the confirmation document?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

cool. i'm sure it'll all work out fine. i'll keep you updated!

Joshua HenamanWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Excellent! I requested a guest/pro badge from LBCC, so I should hear back from them this week. I'm in the same boat w/Comikaze this year. I skipped tabling since it was so close to Bigfoot releasing w/Action Lab, but I'm definitely down for the panel. I'll look at their website and see how to get a pro badge.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

would you be interested in doing a similar panel like this at Comikaze at the end of October?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

LBCC said yes to the panel. i should be getting an official confirmation from them later this week.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

Joshua HenamanMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:30pm PDT

Looks good on this end! Thanks for setting this up!

Joshua HenamanSunday, July 19, 2015 at 9:27pm PDT

Cool, keep me posted!

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 9:26pm PDT

Anyway, I'm glad you're interested! I'll send ya more info soon :D

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 9:25pm PDT

It's pretty easy to get a free pro pass from them, I think all you'd need to do is send them a link to the Bigfoot announcement from the Action Lab SDCC panel. But also, if the panel gets approved, I'm sure they'd hook you up with a badge that way too.

Joshua HenamanSunday, July 19, 2015 at 7:23pm PDT

Nick, I won't have a table at this year's LBCC, but if I can secure a guest badge count me in! I'll check their site to see how to go about getting one. Cheers! Josh S. Henaman

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:37pm PDT

Hey Josh, I'm putting together an Action Lab panel proposal for Long Beach Comic Con in Sept. You interested?

Chad LambertFriday, July 24, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Hey Nick--Can I trouble a fellow Small Press Commando for a vote? I'm up for two Harvey Awards: Promising New Talent and Best Single Issue or Short Story (Breaking Out from DHP #35).

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 7:13pm PDT

Either that or you just REALLY hate aliens.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 7:13pm PDT

I wouldn't believe a couple of 30-whatever yr olds in high school either so I can't blame them. They kinda looked like people? They were really twitchy, though. You seemed pretty into the conspiracy angle, so I got the impression that they were up to no good.

Julia M CuramingTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 7:06pm PDT

Haha they probably didn't believe us because we are very old to be in high school. So aliens look just like people? This has always been my suspicion. Were they evil or pretty harmless? I'm glad we were on the case.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

Had a dream last night that you and I discovered an alien conspiracy. We were the same age we are now but we were still in high school? It was confusing. You could just tell the aliens from looking at them, but I couldn't yet so you developed this little test to help me figure it out. I asked a person to tell me their name while they looked me in the eyes. If they couldn't do it then they were probably... AN ALIEN! Hahaha. No one believed us, of course.

John Reilly, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

yeah i hear good stuff! haven't watch it yet. thanks.

John ReillyMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Danger 5 on Netflix. You're welcome.

Amanda Jade, Nick Marino
Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 3:02pm PST

I know! I was so excited.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:44pm PST

that's like a goldmine :D

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:44pm PST

AWESOME!

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:42pm PST

I found an old notebook while I was cleaning with tons of one shot story ideas using these characters from when I was developing it as a novel, originally.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

So that makes sense.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

I think I'm also overwhelming myself a bit.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

but my personal opinion is that monetizing a comic book before you've even made your first comic is jumping the shark a bit

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

so kudos for that

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

i think it's great to know all of your printing and financial options

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:34pm PST

And what could work for other titles as well.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:34pm PST

So I'm thinking ahead.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:34pm PST

Would something like Patreon be a better choice for it? I'm trying to consider all my options since I'm PR for this comic company too.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:33pm PST

anything can happen when you're doing your first comic. and it can't exist without the content. get that first and then everything else will fall into place on its own.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:33pm PST

I'm so overwhelmed -- there's so much to be considered!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:33pm PST

i strongly strongly strongly advise you to hold off on doing a kickstarter until you've actually made the entire book

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:32pm PST

BUT

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:32pm PST

but i have a bit of a background in printing so my situation was different

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:32pm PST

and i used a lot of alternative sources, like an advertising company my dad worked for and a mail-in photocopy service

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:31pm PST

granted, i haven't printed my own books since 2012

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:27pm PST

Is it better to do these things over the magic of the internet or to go locally to print shops first? I'm trying to get a price gauge so I can set up a Kickstarter with an appropriate goal.

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:25pm PST

How did you go about finding a reliable printer for your comic?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:23pm PST

let er rip

Amanda JadeMonday, November 16, 2015 at 2:19pm PST

Hello friend! i need your advice on a thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:40am PST

Cool!

Amanda JadeSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:40am PST

Just because we really want to go to Universal Studios around Halloween

Amanda JadeSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:39am PST

Also -- Chris and I might be your way for Comikaze next year

Amanda JadeSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:39am PST

Thank you!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

My biggest advice is make the comic before you even do anything for the Kickstarter. Since this is your first comic book, head into it with a lot of patience and flexibility. :D

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:51pm PST

I've never run a Kickstarter, only been a part of a few as a contributor. I'm not particularly experienced in that area. We definitely didn't have one for Holy F*ck, if that's what you mean!

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:31pm PST

Like do you have yours still up I can look at for a sample? Or any tips you'd reccomend?

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:30pm PST

How did you do your Kickstarter?

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

hence why I have everything written down

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

I'm paranoid of plotholes

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

I intend to explain more as the story goes on

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

*is

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

Personally, I think leaving some (or even most) backstory unexplained it a good thing.

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:02pm PST

I wish people just KNEW the backstory and could follow along immediately but nOOOOOO I have to explain the whole thing

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 7:01pm PST

Another hard part: having to give context/backstory.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:49am PST

hahaha! it's just solid black.

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:06am PST

That may have been a pic of my boob lmao

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:05am PST

Oops

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:02am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:30am PST

Sure glad to check stuff out :D

Amanda JadeFriday, November 6, 2015 at 3:41am PST

I'll definitely be sending you some samples, I want your opinions and whatnot

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

It's so much fun to play with those classic archetypes and reinvent them. Re-contextualize them.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:50pm PST

Sweet.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

So it's Zodiac now

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

But then I found out Percy Jackson existed

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

Originally the story was supposed to be Greek Gods

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

but that's the cool part about writing

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:48pm PST

It gets confusing!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:48pm PST

I know what you mean. I've had those. Working on one like that right now, in fact. Where it just keeps changing.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:48pm PST

For me I have to sit down and be like "this is how this happens, but why don't I remember this? OH. Right. I scrapped if cause it made no sense

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:48pm PST

But yeah it's just that it's evolved so much from its original point

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:47pm PST

So like 6 years since I graduated

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:47pm PST

Yeah, that's a long time!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

High school?

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

I've been writing this story since

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

I hope so

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

Sounds to me like you've done a lot of thinking about this.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

AWESOME! Sounds like a wonderful balance of stuff.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

Like I said, it'll be readable for younger kids but there will be worldly themes touched upon so I hope it kind of sits well with all ages

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

In the sense that she seems like your average protagonist but then that's up for debate

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

Well I hope she would!!!! She's the main character :D

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:40pm PST

She's going to be kind of interesting

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:40pm PST

The chick on the cover is our main character -- Eleanor aka Ellie Redgrave

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

He rebooted it for the rebrand but I like the story -- it's kind of all ages fun

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

It's RyuFox Legends

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

Yes, he has one up on Dynapolitan currently

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

Has he made comics before?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

hehe

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

Of course it is! Who else would be that majestic ;)

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

In case you didn't get it

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

IS ME

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

THAT'S WICKED!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

That's his too

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

Yeah his art on the website looks nice!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

and a great artist

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

But rather that it'll work itself out as the story is in progress.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

That's true, luckily he's easy to work with

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

Not to say it's not worth considering...

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

The other stuff is really just tangential.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:36pm PST

That stuff will fall into place as you work. But the story is the most important thing!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:36pm PST

Well in my humble opinion the most important thing is to find out if you and Ike are a good fit as storytellers! All of that other stuff... frequency, platform, distribution...

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

Then I think issues will drop monthly?

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

I need to have my first few issues done by January so Ike has something to work with so we can get Issue 0 out by March and get my title released

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

Sure, gotcha.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

Yep, is for Issue 0 which is kind of the creation story

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

And with my demographic I think comics are probably the way to go.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

So you're working on the first script now?

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

The whole point is to get this story heard

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

Of course.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

And I could always release it in novel form later if people like it

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

But then I finally decided with the action packed fight sequences and all the magical powers being used, it'll definitely lend itself to comic format

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

A little bit of hesitancy isn't bad! Keeps you honest :D

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

And I went back and forth with "should I do it as a comic? should it be an illustrated novel?"

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

Cause I had always pictured it as a novel

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

And I was really iffy

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

NICE!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

But then he found out about this story and was like... It would be such a good comic

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

Ike. Nice website. Great name.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:31pm PST

Originally, he signed me on as promotional model to cosplay as original characters from the series they're releasing

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

Dynapolitan is the page if you wanna check it out

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

He made his own company in order to publish his own comic and has signed on other comic writers and artists as part of the label

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

Well that's cool you already have a collaborative relationship. That should help a lot.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

The collaborator is actually the guy who makes all my website art and someone I've been working with for years

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

Sure, I understand!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

Never ever. I write but it's always been for blogs or websites.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

I forget what we discussed during the podcast... have you made comics before? And with this collaborator?

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

I think with my following through cosplay I can push this thing out easier

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

I've got character descriptions for him so we can get character profiles to build hype

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

That sounds pretty good.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

Cause I'm a theatre person and that's how my brain can handle it

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

I'm basically writing it like how I'd write a script but instead of stage directions it's notes to Ike (my illustrator)

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

It was like, I needed a course to figure it out if I wanted to use that

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

OMG no! Those are so silly.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

And I looked at it and went "HAaAA No"

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

Yeah the formatting is actually pretty inconsequential overall.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

Cause I tried downloading a template for comic writing

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

I'm trying not to get so wrapped up in the formatting I lose sight of the fact I'm trying to tell a story

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

There's no need to be too picky about it.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

I think you've got the right attitude.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

I know EXACTLY what you're talking about! It's such a difficult balancing act. It doesn't necessarily get easier... just simpler. I'm always debating how much I should say in my panel descriptions.

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

Like I'm not picky with the art or anything like that, I just have trouble with terminology so I'm just trusting that Ike knows me well enough to know what the fuck I mean

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

Formatting like, how do I give artistic direction without totally squashing artistic creativity? Cause like, I have it in my head, I just need to explain it so it can be reinterpreted

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

Also, I'm like trying to do a million things like -- figure out if I'm supposed to do a Kickstarter? Cause I'd like printed copies of Issue 0 to give to backers and to sell at cons.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

formatting like how?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

ooo that's always a tricky transition!

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

Which is difficult and I'm a little wrapped up in the formatting and it's getting in the way of actually moving forward effectively

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

Trying to translate it from Novel/short story form to comic book format

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

cool! where you at in the process?

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

It's tame and kind of young adult based but it'll have some dark undertones and allegories and whatnot

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

Lmao

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

Nothing crazy like Holy Fuck

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 7:35pm PST

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 7:30pm PST

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 7:30pm PST

Amanda JadeThursday, November 5, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

Amanda JadeWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

cool, i don't think sophie would have a problem talking about it anyway... just literally with talking!! haha

Amanda JadeWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Yeah I think that's what she said. But yeah, I wouldn't even mention the topic of her transition in the slightest. Like I said, I'm all about talking about the comics! XD

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

heh heh i don't think she would have a problem talking about other stuff! i think it has more to do with her transition than anything else, feeling self-conscious about her voice, etc. as far as i know, she hasn't done anything public (with the exception of posting a few selfies over the summer) for about a year now. it fact, it seemed to me that kelly was implying her transition might even be complete soon (she mentioned something about october, right?).

Amanda JadeWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

I just wanna make it clear that I literally ONLY want to talk about Jem. I won't even touch any political topics. If you can stress that to Sophie she may trust it more from you than me.

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

And the origins behind it

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

Now I have this weird need to look up the concept of animal companionship

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

pets and everything involving them are so philosophically problematic but human culture can't even address it because it's too worried about which imaginary father figure we should be listening to

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

it's probably #3 on the itunes top podcasts list

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

And we can discuss the moral implications behind why Goofy can talk but Pluto can't.

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

And I think you'll be good.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

Just remember that Kelly loves poop jokes and Sophie's favorite movie is Mac And Me.

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:24pm PDT

I'm already doing research and homework for this just in case!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:20pm PDT

Cool, I'll send out something tonight :D

Amanda JadeTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:14pm PDT

Awesome man look forward to it

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 1:52am PDT

next script is almost done, probably finish it up tomorrow :D

Nick WilliamsMonday, March 28, 2016 at 9:08pm PDT

okay ill text you like the changes too

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:28pm PDT

If you wanna talk about the script over the next few days, text me! I dunno if I'll be on Facebook much.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:27pm PDT

2. Ra's parents aren't dead, just badly injured. I don't think we need to kill them to communicate that Ra can't control the armor. Hurt works just as well. This doesn't affect that visual depiction much, as far as I'm concerned. And it's a pretty small plot point in the grand scheme of things!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:25pm PDT

1. I think Sam and Max should be business partners, not employer and employee.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:25pm PDT

I made a couple of tiny tweaks to the plot that don't really affect anything, but I want to mention them!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:25pm PDT

Probs another week before that half is done. But coming soon!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:24pm PDT

It's just the first half of issue one... I still need to do more work before the second half is ready.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:24pm PDT

Alright, I hope you dig that!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 8:24pm PDT

Nick WilliamsMonday, March 28, 2016 at 1:24pm PDT

cool um excited to get started

Nick WilliamsMonday, March 28, 2016 at 1:24pm PDT

Yeah if you have the dialogue pannel by pannel that would be good

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:06pm PDT

I'll still have dialogue broken down by panel in most cases, but I'll keep the structure of things really open for those scenes.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:05pm PDT

Some scenes I have specific suggestions in mind for the panel-to-panel action, but others i'm going to leave it totally up to you because I know you're interested in working that way as well.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:04pm PDT

Just so you know I'm mixing it up when it comes to the amount of detail in my panel descriptions.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:03pm PDT

Awesome!

Nick WilliamsMonday, March 28, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

Awesome man i really loik forwarf to making this book with you sir

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:12pm PDT

The #1 script will be done tomorrow. Thanks for your patience! This story has been a different kind of writing experience for me, both in story tone and script format. It's taken me a bit longer than usual to take this bad boy from concept to outline to script. But it's been an interesting process and I've enjoyed the challenge!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 11:50pm PST

Nick WilliamsSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 10:52pm PST

Talking to you feels weied with that profile pic ahahahahah

Nick WilliamsSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 10:51pm PST

Ooooo im excited nice man can't wait to read it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 7:09pm PST

anyway, first rough draft done. now i gotta flesh that badboy out. will keep you updated :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 7:09pm PST

haha that last sentence was a grammatical mess

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 7:09pm PST

Update! Just finished my first raw version of the script for #1. Needs a lot of work, but all of the characters beats and there with some rough dialogue.

Nick WilliamsFriday, March 4, 2016 at 7:00am PST

DOPE!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 10:28pm PST

k cool!!!!!!!!!!! I WILLLLLLL

Nick WilliamsThursday, March 3, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 10:55am PST

Nick WilliamsFriday, February 26, 2016 at 9:19am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 26, 2016 at 9:14am PST

Nick WilliamsFriday, February 26, 2016 at 8:00am PST

yeah t looks good so far sir

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 11:10pm PST

There's a lot of stuff packed into these three acts, but I totally think we can pull it off! I really focused on building complete character arcs for all of the characters while advancing the plot.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 11:09pm PST

The outline for our crazy story!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 9:20pm PST

i might be able to do it but i wouldn't be able to start until at least Feb 22. when does it need to be done?

Nick WilliamsFriday, February 5, 2016 at 8:06pm PST

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:36pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:31pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:31pm PST

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsRW5ZZU45OXo1QXM

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:30pm PST

here's the result...

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:30pm PST

plus, he knew the characters perfectly by that point

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:30pm PST

since Daniel and I had already done four issues together, i could be pretty sparse with my panel decriptions

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:29pm PST

that's one of my lighter scripts

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:29pm PST

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:29pm PST

okay cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:28pm PST

speaking of which

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:28pm PST

it might not be too off from some of my light scripts

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:28pm PST

interesting

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:26pm PST

Bear and the kid are standing outside of a cave in a cliff side. The sun is setting behind them.) Kid- "Why go in there?" Bear- "There could be something in there to help us."

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:25pm PST

its to jumbled

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:24pm PST

Bear and the kid are standing outside of a cave in a cliff side. The sun is setting behind them.) Kid- "Why go in there?" Bear- "There could be something in there to help us." Kid- "It could be dangerous." Bear- "That is why you are staying here." Kid- "No! Don't leave me out here!" Bear- "We need shelter. This cave can help us if it is safe." Kid- "I don't want to be out here alone." Bear- "If I build a fire and tell you a story, would you be okay to wait out here?" (Child is staring quietly at bear, not saying anything, not wanting to wait but wanting to hear the story.) Bear- (Going into revere) "Before I found you, I walked the Earth alone." (Scene changes to follow the story of Bear) Bear- "I remember nothing before, only that I walked and that time that once existed, now did not." Bear- "I walked so far that there were no more rocks and the sand disappeared." Bear- "A vast desert soon become a smooth floor of glass." Bear- "I walked upon the glass, a mirror floor and soon enough there was only the floor and myself. My reflection and I. Bear- "As I walked, the sun reflected off the floor and intensified." Bear- "I began to burn." Bear- "The floor became the sky. There was no horizon." Bear- "No up, and no down. There was myself and my refection." Bear- "I fell to my knees, dying of thirst, burning beneath the sun." Bear- "I faced my reflection." Bear- "I faced myself" Bear- "I banged and smashed my image." Bear- "The mirror desert cracked, spreading like spider webs, all the way to the horizon." Bear- "I could see the horizon." Bear- "At the end there was a cloud and a blinding light. Bear- "The cloud rose. and the mirror desert smashed and shattered." Bear- "I arose and began to walk again, walking on the jigsawed images of myself beneath me." Bear- "The soles of my feet tramped upon the teeth of the Earth as I walked upon the desert of broken glass." Bear- "My feet bled till there became more callous than the Earth." (Coming out of the story) Bear- "Wait for me here." Kid- "Did you really walk through a desert of broken glass? Bear- (Close up of face, boy over his shoulder) Yes.

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:24pm PST

ill send one i have worked from

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:24pm PST

one sec

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:23pm PST

okay

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:23pm PST

i save everything in google docs so the scripts are constantly changing

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:23pm PST

awww ok

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:22pm PST

hahaha if i can find a good one that isn't all torn up from me rewriting the dialogue after the art was done

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:21pm PST

sure

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:21pm PST

you know waht send me one of yoyur scripts

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

good

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

with dialoague

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

because i'm open to anything

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

yeah loose script

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

really for me it comes down to what you want

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

it can be one page for an entire issue or it can be a loose script with light dialogue

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:20pm PST

to me, marvel method is a pretty broad range

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:19pm PST

yeah, for sure.

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:19pm PST

yeah and you rbought up the marvel method as well

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:19pm PST

is that still what you're into?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

we discussed doing a less restrictive script, something that's less about what happens in each panel and more about what happens on each page

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

okay hmm

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

which i would probably do per issue

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

then after that, a detailed list of the beats that need to happen

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:17pm PST

okay then

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:17pm PST

emphasis on the at least

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:17pm PST

something like at least double what we already have

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

first, a plot outline

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

what are they?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

typically i'll have at least two steps before i would start scripting

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

so for example

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

what kind of steps between now and the script would you like to see?

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:15pm PST

ask away

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 5:15pm PST

now that mention it, i'd like to ask...

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 4:39pm PST

the script

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 4:39pm PST

anytime look forward to reading

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 4:37pm PST

Nick WilliamsWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

okay can and will do

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:48pm PST

it helps to be able to glance at them while i'm writing!

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:47pm PST

whenever you get the time, do ya think you could send me all of the character sketches so far either here on FB or through email?

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 3:25pm PST

anytime sir

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 3:13pm PST

Definitely helps me wrap my head around how to work out some elements of the suit's history. THANKS!

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 3:13pm PST

thanks sir

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 3:13pm PST

Great design.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 3:13pm PST

I'm down with it!!!!!!!

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

what do you think

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

roy suit lol

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

ra suit

Nick WilliamsFriday, January 29, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 5:03pm PST

heheheh sweeeet!

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 4:17pm PST

okay ill do some designs for roy lol

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

because depending on how you want to visualize that, it filters down into lots of little things regarding the suit's history!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

so right now i'm interested in exploring how an alien's protective space suit becomes a human's battle suit or armor.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

but from a plotting stand point, i want to tailor everything to match what you want to draw the most.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

i imagine a big part of that depends on how you want to draw Roy. i'm cool with anything!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

how do you see the suit / armor / mecha / whatever functioning for both Roy and Ra?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

so my next big question is about the alien (let's give the alien a name for the sake of discussion: Roy)...

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:29pm PST

hmmmm interesting take on it!! i dig it. makes it more about the function of the suit rather than a heritage or a legacy.

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

what do you think?

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

so the suit could be looking for max a well established fighter but through circumstance picks ra the help her realize her true potential

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

so we have that mutial tie there and the relation come in with our other hero max

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

i feel like the suit needs her and she need is to become what she wants a soul boxer.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 12:06pm PST

what do you think would be a better way to do that?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 12:06pm PST

that was mainly my reason for her ending up with the armor

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 12:06pm PST

cool, works for me

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 11:37am PST

i dont think she need to be in the descendant of a Thule family

Nick WilliamsThursday, January 28, 2016 at 11:36am PST

yeah i remember mos of it and yeah we can keep it the same

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:51pm PST

sounds good!

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:45pm PST

okay cool ill look at it and get back to you

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:44pm PST

after you check out that Xeqa history pdf, i'd love to hear some ideas from you about how you see the functionality of the armor accommodating both the ancient alien and Ra!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:42pm PST

so in the case of the xeqa armor, my big question is functionality

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:42pm PST

i'm cool with changing anything in that xeqa history that you want to change! most importantly, i want to make sure that the backstory i have planned lines up as well as possible with the visuals that you want to draw

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:41pm PST

as far as i'm concerned, that origin for the xeqa armor still works 100% even though we've merged the present day part of the story with the soulboxer stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:40pm PST

so i'm not expecting you to remember it much! especially since it's not something we've really discussed since then

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:40pm PST

i sent that to you back before we'd officially combined the xeqa and soulboxer stories

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:39pm PST

do you remember that plot concept for the xeqa story?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:39pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:37pm PST

but something it made me realize is that we haven't really discussed the armor's role much in relation to the current plot we're developing

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:36pm PST

it's cool!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 9:36pm PST

thanks for sending over the armor design

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

working on it now

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

can't wait to see what you cook up!

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

ahaha yeah ill do the arrmor

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

:D

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

i just want to make sure that i know whatever that is

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

we can keep it

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

i'm down with any approach you want to take

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:52am PST

it's totally okay!

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:51am PST

oh my bad she has the arrmor my bad i just reread it

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:49am PST

how you'd like to depict things

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:49am PST

i just want to make sure i understand how you

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

i have no problem switching some things around!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

and the mask is passed on from generation to generation

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

to oppose the armor

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

the tribe creates this mask

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

okay do you have an image in mind

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

the alien basically lives in it while it's on Earth

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:48am PST

is that the Xeqa armor is like a mecha bodysuit

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:47am PST

basically, the set up i had in mind

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:47am PST

she can if you want! i'm down for anything.

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:46am PST

Nick WilliamsWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:46am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 11:53pm PST

I watched some Outlaw Star. It's got a great look! Reminds me a lot of Moebius comics.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 11:52pm PST

Anyway, I consider all of the reference in there as suggestions. I'm flexible to tweaking any of it based upon what you'd like to do. But hopefully it contains some good starting points.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 11:51pm PST

I ended up doing a little more work on the characters than I expected.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 11:51pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 7, 2016 at 4:22am PST

I found that I was most interested in focusing on the thematic development of the plot and the characters right now. Once I feel like I understand that direction a bit more, I'll dig more into the more of the world development kind of stuff that we discussed.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 7, 2016 at 4:19am PST

I hope you dig it! I'll share the Google Doc with you too so you can edit it / add to it as you see fit.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

So I did a little research on the books your mentioned. I knew of most of them, just not much about their stories. Anyway, I did my best to dig through my story ideas I'm developing to find some stuff that might vibe with you.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Looks like it sent just fine.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

yeah, i've heard a lot of peeps say that in interviews. not sure i have an opinion on it. i mean, i still take some influence from comics but i'm more inspired by comics i dislike than comics i do like! hahahaha

Nick WilliamsFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

okay cool yeah i think thats good that you stopped reading them. i dont thinks comics should influence comics i think you need and outside experience to make them work beter

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

but imma look up all of those to get a feel for them

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

so i'm a little out of touch nowadays hehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 8:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 7:24pm PDT

good question! i dunno if i have a dream project right now... i feel like i kinda scratched that itch with Holy F*ck and another thing i'm working on now. at this point, i just have lots of different characters and relationships i want to explore.

Kristian Hans HornThursday, April 21, 2016 at 5:28pm PDT

Yeah...I just really dig drawing on paper...

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 5:16pm PDT

yeah, i think for some illustrators the inking process is just a major drag. in fact, it's like that for the majority of pencilers i know who work on paper. my digital friends are the ones who use the "inking" phase as a dual pencils / inks type of thing and they tend to really enjoy it because of that.

Kristian Hans HornThursday, April 21, 2016 at 5:10pm PDT

There's definitely a difference when you have a larger pic or print them out...I'm just getting tired of feeling like I'm re-drawing the same thing all over again. I did this interview with Kazu Kibuishi who does The Amulet graphic novels and he said he doesn't ink at all...he just uses pencils. Mostly because he hates inking. So I kept thinking about it and how long it was taking me to do this blasted book and I said fuck it! Just pencils!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:59pm PDT

There's barely a difference with the colors.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:58pm PDT

Just the pencils look fine. DO IT!!!!!!!!

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:29pm PDT

Above is a pencilled page with colors. The first page was the inked page.

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

Here's an inked page...

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:07pm PDT

Ugh...I hate inking. Thinking of just doing pencils. Went back to the first two pages, rescanned the pencils, cleaned them up a bit, and dropped them onto the colored pages. Think it may be the way to go.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:59pm PDT

how're your inks going?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:59pm PDT

not bad. got some pitches in the works, which is fun. need to do some lettering tonight!

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:56pm PDT

It was pretty good until I realized how unimportant I was! How are you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:51pm PDT

how's life?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:51pm PDT

I'm not important and neither are you.

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:39pm PDT

Aw, fuck off!!! I was feeling important for having hung out with an Eisner nominee!!! :-)

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:38pm PDT

Aw, Fuck off!!! I was feeling important for having hung out with an Eisner nominee!!! :-)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:30pm PDT

Well, my Photoshop skills nominated me twice :P

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 9:22pm PDT

Holy Fuck Dude!!! Did you get nominated for an Eisner twice????

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 10:02am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 9:56am PDT

Kristian Hans HornSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 9:41am PDT

Where you at?

Kristian Hans HornMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:41am PST

Yeah...I wish I could forget about the cat one too! Dave's pretty much in charge on Baby Badass. As far as I know he's working with the artist. He wants to do a Kickstarter early next year but he's not really been communicating his plans with me so...we'll see...

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:28am PST

hehe forgot about the cat one for a min

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:27am PST

BOTH

Kristian Hans HornMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:11am PST

Which one? The cat one?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:09am PST

how's the book coming along?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:05am PST

It's nuts.

Kristian Hans HornMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:05am PST

Got it. Totally understand. I don't know how so many people live the con life. It's kind of insane!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:03am PST

I'm abstaining from exhibiting for the first few months of 2016. I love connecting with people but I hate the stresses of it.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Thanks for asking! I

Kristian Hans HornMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:41am PST

We're thinking about exhibiting. Was wondering if other people were interested in joining forces to table together...maybe get a larger table going? I dunno.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:25am PST

I'm planning on going, but not exhibiting. Maybe do a panel or two if the opportunity arises! How bout you?

Kristian Hans HornMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

Hey Nick...are you doing Wondercon in 2016?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:05am PST

Bummer you can't make it, but I hope you're having a great weekend! Thanks for the shout. The show is fun. Catch ya soon!

Kristian Hans HornSaturday, October 31, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

Hey man! Just dropping you a note to wish you the best at Comikaze this year! I won't be making it down...too much Halloween/family stuff going down! Hope you have a great con!

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 6:01pm PDT

Ok...my cell is 8182093238. Seven thirty looks like it should be good.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 5:43pm PDT

tomorrow's no good for me but later tonight is fine if that's also good with you

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 5:38pm PDT

Hey...work is looping me into something and making me stay a bit late. Can we do seven thirty or tomorrow? Sorry.

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

Ugh. Who has the time?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

hahaha! i've done that a couple of times.

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

OK, then... FOUR HOURS!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

im good with whatever, just curious

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

About an hour. Could be less if you want.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

how long do you normally record?

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

OK, great!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

Yeah, 7 is good :D

Kristian Hans HornMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Hey Nick! We still down for tonight?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 4:17pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 4:17pm PDT

sounds good

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

All right! I'll touch base again on Monday!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Ok...let's do it! What's your Skype ID?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

Sure, I think that would work fine.

Kristian Hans HornWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

Hey Nick...can you possibly do this coming Monday evening? Like around seven p.m. or so?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 4:26pm PDT

I'm recording a podcast on Thursday but I don't know what time yet. Friday is open. Saturday morning is okay as long as we're done by 1pm. But then I'm going to the airport to pick up Justique's friend who's staying with us, so i think that means Sunday is probably out for me. But beyond that, I think anything is okay!

Kristian Hans HornMonday, September 28, 2015 at 4:00pm PDT

I can't wait to read the sequel!

Kristian Hans HornMonday, September 28, 2015 at 3:59pm PDT

Possibly this coming weekend...although I may not air it until next week. Gotta sort my schedule out. Wife's out of town and taking my daughter to see Iron Giant this weekend! Crazy week! What days/times work best for you?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 3:57pm PDT

Yeah, I'd be honored. I'm so glad you enjoyed the book! Here's a link to a PDF of Holy F*cked if you wanna check out the sequel too ;)

Kristian Hans HornMonday, September 28, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

Hey Nick! Just dropping you a line to see if you'd like to come on to my podcast to do an interview! Read your trade and LOVED it! HYSTERICAL! Great hanging out with you at LBCC! Hope all is well with you!

Shawn said yes to the panel

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 2:07pm PDT

ANYTHING FOR YOU

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:27pm PDT

Although could we make it less... you know... "kid friendly"? Maybe add some really harsh language?

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:26pm PDT

I LIKE IT!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:24pm PDT

SNATCH: THE OUTER FUCK OF COMICS

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:22pm PDT

Sunday is good. We haven't been to church in decades, so we've got no excuses to not attend that panel.

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:21pm PDT

Cool. We'd have done it ourselves, but every other word out of our mouths is either "fuck" or "snatch", the latter typically used as a noun.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

Because Kevin will be there that day too

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

Oh BTW Vic prefers Sunday

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

Okay, I

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:20pm PDT

I like the way you think.

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:19pm PDT

We will be there all four days. Possibly five if we find out machine guns and hookers are legal in Arizona.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 11:16am PDT

Will you be there all four days and available the whole time? Just checking for the panel time slot.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:52am PDT

Cool, I'll coordinate with Victor. Thanks!

Yuan TwinsSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:26am PDT

The Man Vs Rock dudes.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:28pm PDT

SWEET! Who normally pitches that panel... you or the Man Vs Rock guys?

Yuan TwinsSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:22pm PDT

We will be there! Sounds like a plan - take that panel out of state!!! :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 9:31pm PDT

i think almost all of us from the Outer Limits of Comics panel will be there and they might still have some panel spots open if you're interested

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 9:28pm PDT

are you doing Phoenix Comic Con again this year?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 22, 2016 at 8:37pm PDT

Yeah not brave... stupid!!! Just bad time management. :P

Yuan TwinsFriday, April 22, 2016 at 6:16pm PDT

No worries, dudeski! You are braver than we are to be in traffic at all between the hours of... oh, morning and midnight.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 22, 2016 at 6:01pm PDT

Ugh not sure if I'll make it there by 8!!! Had to meet an old friend in Silver Lake and I got manhandled by traffic. Because, ya know, Los Angeles.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 10:03pm PDT

cool, i'll swing by and catch up!

Yuan TwinsMonday, April 18, 2016 at 9:39pm PDT

We will be there after 4pm! :D

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 3:20pm PDT

are you guys gonna be at the shop on Friday? i might be in your area.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:39pm PST

Cool!

Yuan TwinsMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:57am PST

We think so. Kevin from Man vs Rock put in a request, so we'll see how it pans out. If Wondercon knows what's good for 'em, they'll say yes!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:26am PST

THANK YOU!!! The panel was tons of fun and it was great seeing you guys again! I think we're doing a reprise at WonderCon, right?

Yuan TwinsMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:09am PST

Hey, dude! Had a great time at the panel yesterday! Thanks for being a part of it. You were awesome (as was everyone else)!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

Awesome!!! Thanks for letting me know and I'll make sure to wear my asbestos safety suit just in case the torches get thrown.

Yuan TwinsFriday, October 23, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Hey Nick! Matt and John here - fellow panelists on the Gonzo Comics panel. In the interest of full disclosure, the minute we see torches and pitchforks coming out, we're headed for the emergency exit and we will probably be hobbling another panelist to facilitate our getaway. So you may not want to sit right next to us. Anyhow, we have an event set up for the panel - if you could invite as many people as you can to this thing that would be awesome! And we were totally joking about you not sitting next to us, 'cause we plan on hobbling Kevin. Best, Matt and John https://www.facebook.com/events/103074140054723/ There's a quick link, too!

Eugene AlejandroTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 9:10pm PST

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 8:08pm PDT

Im also looking for 6-8 people for a pasadena library event in october. Its gonna be all ages probably, but fanbase is gonna be there.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 8:00pm PDT

Works for me!

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:55pm PDT

Yeah thats happening for sure. Usually tables are split.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:54pm PDT

Hahahaha! Yeah, I do know what you mean. I imagine a few people will drop out as well. I'm always open to sharing a table too if you need to conserve space.

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:41pm PDT

and you know what happens, you email a bunch of people and you expect like 20% to respond, so when 50% respond you have a wonderful problem.

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:40pm PDT

I am overbooking like crazy. Mike is going to be so maaddddd. but I keep thinking of awesome creators.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:40pm PDT

rockin!!!

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:38pm PDT

yeah man. DJ, the fanbase press team, Dave and Nicole, Lonnie Milsap, Josh Trujillo. I'm trying to get my friends from devastator there too.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:37pm PDT

I'm looking forward to it! I imagine the usual suspects will all be there and it'll be cool to hang with everyone.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:36pm PDT

Sounds good :D

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:36pm PDT

So I guess, yes. I'm organizing the creators at least.

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:35pm PDT

I'm spearheading it. Mike is not the most organized person in the world so I'm helping out. I told him about it, and pushed him to do it, so I want to make sure I bring the thunder wit creators.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:35pm PDT

Cool. Are you organizing the whole shebang?

Russell NoheltyWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 4:33pm PDT

Do you want a table @ buy indie comic day @ the comic bug on aug 6th?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 20, 2016 at 5:18pm PDT

It's a fun little shop. Definitely still finding its identity. Cool owners.

Russell NoheltyFriday, May 20, 2016 at 4:55pm PDT

cool. You keep talking about it so it makes me want to go down there.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 20, 2016 at 4:53pm PDT

Yah, in that Shoreline Village set of shops. They're right across from that bar that had the Long Beach Comic Expo after party where we were hanging out.

Russell NoheltyFriday, May 20, 2016 at 4:50pm PDT

it's on shoreline drive?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 20, 2016 at 4:50pm PDT

They might be interested. The store is unique because it's not only really new but also in a super touristy area so it's like one part comic shop, one part geeky gift shop. Most of their traffic is on Saturdays and Sundays, so it could be good to chill there with a table and some books and see what happens.

Russell NoheltyFriday, May 20, 2016 at 3:28pm PDT

Does shoreline stock indie books or do signing?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:13am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 10:10pm PST

You planning on selling some?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 10:10pm PST

The irony is that now I make them... but I don't have a sweet collection or even really read them anymore. Haha.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 10:09pm PST

Cool! I gave away most of mine about 7 years ago. Only sold a few issues from the 60s and 70s. Got less than $100 for em.

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 7:33pm PST

its weird XD

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 7:24pm PST

hahaha funny

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:08pm PST

nice. was curious cause they annouced a new detective pikachu game were pikachu has a gruff detective voice and solves mysteries like dead bodies apparently

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:07pm PST

nah, i missed that boat. though i do love psyduck. and jigglypuff is rad.

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

were you ever into pokemon at one point?

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:03pm PST

its different i give you that

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:02pm PST

that's true

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:01pm PST

i think of it more like it's a unusual place to have a comic shop and that creates unique opportunities

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

so its sorta cashing in on the area

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

oh cool :o

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

it's interesting because he's located in an area that gets lots of tourist traffic so it's just as much nerd gift shop as comic shop

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:59pm PST

toys are always fun

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:59pm PST

yeah for sure! mostly new comics and lots of toys

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:58pm PST

i should check it out whenever i'm in the area

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:57pm PST

it's right in downtown long beach, next to the water

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:57pm PST

oh nice :3

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:57pm PST

he's just getting started (four months, i think)

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:57pm PST

super chill! real friendly owner, nice little shop

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:54pm PST

true :3 I'll have to think about it how was the comic shop in long beach

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:53pm PST

my advice is write what you would like to read, whether that's explicit or not.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:52pm PST

yeah, i hear ya

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:48pm PST

the con, it might isolate certain readera

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:47pm PST

it would help understand certain situations and can cause humor

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 4:46pm PST

what are the pros and cons to you of making it explicit?

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

idk if.i.should.make.it.explictive

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:14am PST

yeah lol they are :) music helps me create to create the tone and theme of.the story. and yeaj they are. especially since they are pretty out there situationa

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:11am PST

*are always

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:11am PST

real life mishaps as always great too :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:11am PST

i love using music as an inspiration, especially to capture the tone of a scene

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

but i had an idea for a romance comedy based.on unfortunate events that have happened to me in my attempt of dating

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:57am PST

sometimes music does. like i'll be listening to a song and idea would pop up. i try to broaden that idea and see what i can do with it

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:55am PST

what inspires you?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:55am PST

:D

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:55am PST

until i met Daniel and then we reworked everything together and my inspiration at that point became the creative process itself

Steven AvilaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:55am PST

oh jeez lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:54am PST

but then that idea sat around for a while and my inspiration because more like "how can i ever make this insane comic with another person?"

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:54am PST

my original idea for a book called The Bible 2 was "what if Hollywood decided to make a cash grab sequel to the best selling book of all time?"

Steven AvilaMonday, January 25, 2016 at 9:50pm PST

yeah :3 what inspired you to write holy fuck?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 25, 2016 at 9:50pm PST

sweet!!! sounds like a fun challenge.

Steven AvilaMonday, January 25, 2016 at 8:00pm PST

yeah trying to make a supernatural version of an amalgamation of batman and moon knight

Alex Schumacher, Nick Marino
Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:38am PDT

Indeed, good sir. Indeed.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:34am PDT

OMG i know, i can always dream

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:22am PDT

And at least you still have goals. It's a beautiful thing.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:18am PDT

probs. i still haven't been fondled by Eddie Berganza yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:09am PDT

Yeah... I mean when you've been at it as long as we have you've heard it all.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:08am PDT

right? hahahaha

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:07am PDT

Well, both I suppose haha

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:07am PDT

I know that response all too well

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:07am PDT

oh i appreciated any response! most just ignore me.

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:06am PDT

Fuckers

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

Very form letter

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

Hard copy's no problem

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

let's see...

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

Was the email a form response?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

they're hard copy only FYI

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

may have been a third time too, i forget

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

once they sent me a rejection email, another time they didn't reply

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

Gotcha

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

Alright then hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

i've had both reactions from them

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

yes and no?

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Are they a "no answer means no" type of publisher?

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Hahaha! Nice. I've actually never submitted to them.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

i'm fucking into it! i'm used to their submission process at this point. they're probably like "this guy again???"

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

This is a ways off, but I was thinking somewhere like Fantagraphics may be the place to submit our sordid tales...

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

Yee, boyeee!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

can't wait!!!!!!!

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

I'll try and have the other 2 designs for your eye-holes in the next day or two

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

cool

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

Nice... I actually just read the email. I agree, Maddie should have the "Mr. Clean".

Alex SchumacherMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

Bwahaha!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

YOU'RE SO HUGE, BIG BOY

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

I LOVED THE PICS

Alex SchumacherSunday, May 22, 2016 at 6:49pm PDT

Genital photography in your inbox, fool.

Alex SchumacherFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:30am PDT

Dig it.

Alex SchumacherFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:30am PDT

Wow! Phallic precognition...

Nick MarinoFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Yeah, I know. I dreamed about them last night.

Alex SchumacherFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

I wanted you to know who they were coming from

Alex SchumacherFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:25am PDT

Basically it's just going to be dick pics

Nick MarinoFriday, May 20, 2016 at 11:25am PDT

I feel so warned right now

Alex SchumacherFriday, May 20, 2016 at 9:45am PDT

Watch your email this weekend, broheem. You've been warned.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54pm PDT

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:24pm PDT

I just want to keep in touch and make sure you know I'm not dropping the ball or bowing out in any way!

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:24pm PDT

I have... Well, not new, but new to the "public". Now I just need them to pay haha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:21pm PDT

i know you've been taking on new gigs like a madman too! which is awesome.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:20pm PDT

yeah it's good stuff! i'm up to my eyeballs in in progress stuff for the next couple of weeks so no rush

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:15pm PDT

I really dig the idea we have

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:15pm PDT

I know I said that before, but I'm pretty sure I mean it this time haha

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:14pm PDT

I was glad to see your email... I should be able to carve some tie out this weekend to finally get on some character design at least

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:14pm PDT

Btw

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:09pm PDT

I mean you're welcome

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:09pm PDT

Oh... Uh

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:09pm PDT

Please

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:08pm PDT

spank you

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:08pm PDT

I commend ya

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:07pm PDT

That's kind of an epic psyche out though

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:07pm PDT

Bwahaha!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:03pm PDT

super butt throb!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:03pm PDT

yeah if you look even closer, the second nom is in purple, it's slightly crooked, and my name is spelled wrong ;)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:02pm PDT

hahahahaha

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

Not in a good way

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

Comic Sans makes my asshole throb

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

Basically just skim FB at this point

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

I just saw the headline

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:57pm PDT

Oh bwahaha!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:51pm PDT

It's totally fake, though. I even typed it in Comic Sans if you look closely.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:51pm PDT

Thanks!!!

Alex SchumacherThursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:41pm PDT

Dude... Been a bit crazed, but had to take the chance to say congrats on the fucking Eisner nom!

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 8:13pm PDT

Yea, boyee.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 6:54pm PDT

sexy

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 3:09pm PDT

Designs coming soon...

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 3:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 3:09pm PDT

i digz it

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:17pm PDT

So I'd like to have something to the effect of Model Citizen, Stays Quo, etc. Makes me giggle.

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:14pm PDT

Booyah! I'm happy to play around with it too. I just liked the idea of fucked up characters as the norm.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:02pm PDT

and none of the registered ones would conflict with a comic book called Model Citizen

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:02pm PDT

i did a quick trademark search

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

even though it's not a concern for us at all

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

it's surprisingly unused

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

for being such a common phrase

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:00pm PDT

so far

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:00pm PDT

Google isn't turning up any comics with that name

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:00pm PDT

WORKS FOR ME!

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

Or something along those lines anyway

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

If not, I kinda dig that for our book... But of course you need to dig it too.

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

Has there ever been a comic entitled "Model Citizen"?

Alex SchumacherThursday, March 24, 2016 at 1:30pm PDT

Hey! I sent an email earlier, but just had a stroke of adequate brilliance.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:34am PST

\m/

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:34am PST

nickmarino@gmail.com

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:34am PST

excellent

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:32am PST

Rock on. Aight... Let me shoot you some shit over the weekend. Feel free to do the same at: leadheadajs@yahoo.com

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:29am PST

im into that :D

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:27am PST

Sweet! I just like shining a spotlight on the cockroaches and watching them dance.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:26am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:26am PST

I likes!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:26am PST

I got that feeling from what you said before that the fucked up characters were compelling to you.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:21am PST

I'll have to think about that some, but gut reaction would be to make it character driven.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:16am PST

do you have an aspect of it that you're especially interested in? Characters? Setting? Themes?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:16am PST

Like...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:16am PST

Sweet. Gritty underground slice of life type of stuff isn't something I've done before. I've introduced elements of it into genre stories I've done (especially in my upcoming book), but it's relatively untrod territory for me. I'm interested in hearing more about what kind of direction you'd like to take that kind of story.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:11am PST

That sounds good to me. We can bounce ideas off one another until you feel you have something to work with.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:10am PST

So that's what I normally do, but I'm to married to that process.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:10am PST

Copious and continuous.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:10am PST

Yes indeed.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:09am PST

That's an important piece of the puzzle.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:09am PST

HAAHAHA COPIOUS SUBSTANCES

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:09am PST

Even though I have a love hate relationship with it, I almost always letter it

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:09am PST

Lots of booze, blackout, wake up to something amazing? No, just me?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:09am PST

I like to brainstorm / plot with my collaborator. I normally take whatever notes come out of it, try to boil things down into something coherent, and then do more plotting. From there, once everyone likes what's in the plot, I'll script some stuff. I don't really draw nowadays (just not into lately) but I enjoy helping out wherever I can with the art, whether it's clean up or formatting or flatting, etc.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:06am PST

Mine used to vary a lot but it's been pretty similar for the past few years...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:06am PST

Good to know.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:04am PST

I work full time, so most of the process happens at night. I'm definitely a night owl.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:03am PST

I think it varies depending on whether I'm writing prose, writing and drawing something, or just drawing.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:02am PST

Do you have a typical routine for your creative process or does it vary a lot by project?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:01am PST

heh heh

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:01am PST

Different end, same idea hahaha!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:01am PST

Then when I say them out loud, I'm like "Wow, that's so stupid." haha

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:01am PST

I'm the reverse... I wake up in a daze and have these super grand ideas in the morning.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:01am PST

Ooooo that sounds tough!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:00am PST

My brain never just shuts the fuck up!

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 11:00am PST

I tend to come up with tons of ideas as I'm falling asleep. Pisses me off because I can't actually sleep until the ideas are put down in some fashion.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:59am PST

ding ding ding

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:59am PST

"Show me... THE SHOWER!"

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:59am PST

"Where do you do your best thinking?"

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:59am PST

<Family Feud music plays>

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:58am PST

My #1 spot is...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:58am PST

Oh yeah. That's my #2 spot, though. <snicker>

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:58am PST

Where the best thinking is done!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:57am PST

That's me thinking

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:57am PST

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:54am PST

Or dumb ass Vine stars, or whatever that shit is.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:54am PST

Yeah... Maybe like a more modern Zap Comics? Really cartoony and exaggerated characters based on archetypes we despise, like yuppie douchebags for instance.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:52am PST

Ooooooo cool i can dig it!

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:51am PST

I don't necessarily have an idea in mind but maybe something like the Indies of yore would be cool... Crumb, Pekar, those types.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:50am PST

Well the kind of thing I've been focusing on in my short stories and weekly thing I'm doing has been in the slice-of-life vein.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:50am PST

I like to find out a collaborator's bucket list and try to make something on there work.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:49am PST

Is there any particular kind of story that you're dying to tell right now?

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:49am PST

Shoot.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:49am PST

\m/

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:49am PST

I feel like I asked you a version of this last month but I'll ask again in a broader way...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:48am PST

Cool!!!

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:43am PST

Plus CW likes to keep things more all-ages, while I'm a bit more of a dirtbag.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:41am PST

I'd absolutely be game for figuring something out that we could rock together.

Alex SchumacherFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:40am PST

Definitely, man. I try not to step on too many toes and, while I love working with CW, he tends to want things his way with little wiggle room.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

If you're interested, I'd love to shoot the shit some more about maybe finding a story we could tell together.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

But I dug the way you approached the concept process.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

I could tell pretty easily that CW might not be the best collaborative fit for me.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 22, 2016 at 10:38am PST

YO! I was just thinking about our story chat from last month.

Nick Marino, James Ninness
Nick MarinoSunday, January 24, 2016 at 10:35am PST

Ok. The Holy fuck in Russia anyway many fans

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 19, 2016 at 9:51am PDT

NO WAY! Shake his hand!!! I'm impressed that he put so much work into it. Hell, it's not like my publisher was going to translate it into Russian so he just helped us get more readers.

Oleg GreenTuesday, April 19, 2016 at 9:49am PDT

Thanks man. When I meet that guy who translated your comics into Russian without permission, I will punch him right in the face=)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 19, 2016 at 4:46am PDT

thanks for asking! i don't need an artist right now but i'll keep you in mind. i like your work. :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:54pm PDT

Cool, thanks! It's gonna be fuuuuuun!!! I'm sure we'll see plenty of each other on the Facebookies before then anyway :D

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:45pm PDT

Awesome stuff, sir. I will ingest all of these comics before PHXCC. I look forward to seeing you there!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:41pm PDT

Since we're Facebook friends, I know you've probably seen me talk about some of this stuff. But I'm not gonna make any assumptions about what you may or may not have seen! So here's everything that's gone on since we chatted last year... When we met at PHXCC, only Holy F*ck had been released. So here's the sequel, Holy F*cked: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsRkFRSGF3VHdNQXM I remember mentioning to you that I was planning to Kickstart my weird stick figure graphic novel. Well I said FUCK IT and put out Stick Cats (and its soundtrack) for free last month: http://www.nickmarino.net/2016/04/11/stick-cats-graphic-novel-and-soundtrack/ Daniel from Holy F*ck has collaborated with me on a new miniseries but we're still searching for a publisher! I'm keeping it top secret until I know who's gonna pick it up. With that said, there's a very good chance I'll know soon so if we have a publisher before PHXCC, I'll tell you! I've got a lot of other fun stuff in the works and I'll show you some preview art at PHXCC. A graphic novel about three loser supervillains who find each other, a cartoon pitch that Daniel and I did for Nickelodeon, a comic book about underwater koalas battling evil squids (yes... seriously), and a three issue sci-fi martial arts epic that's just beginning to come together. I look forward to catching up with you and your wife (Sara, right? I hope I got her name right!) at the convention :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:41pm PDT

Here's what was in the email:

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:39pm PDT

It just didn't like my email. hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:39pm PDT

You're not going crazy.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:39pm PDT

It exists!

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:38pm PDT

I get told it does not exist all the time. I swear that I think it exsists...

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:38pm PDT

Gmail would probably work fine.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:38pm PDT

Yeah, that's the one!

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:37pm PDT

Or facebook.

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:36pm PDT

Or Gmail, or msn.com

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:36pm PDT

Neilinco2004@q.com?

Norrin RaddSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:35pm PDT

That is fine, sir.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 11:35pm PDT

Yo! Your email hates me :( So I can just hook you up with all of the info through Facebook if that's cool with you.

Nick Marino, Shawn Demumbrum
Nick MarinoWednesday, May 4, 2016 at 11:24pm PDT

Just had a thought... should I write up a sentence with the names of the creators for each of the panels i pitched you? I wanna make sure people know who to expect! :D

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 7:50pm PDT

That would be cool, thanks!

Shawn DemumbrumSunday, May 1, 2016 at 7:48pm PDT

Shawn DemumbrumSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:57pm PDT

If they don't have passes already.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:57pm PDT

Sounds good.

Saturday at 7:30 pm?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:52pm PDT

Okay, sent the other proposal. It's a pretty simple conversation topic with what I think is a really interesting group of panelists! Hope you dig it :D

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 2:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

THANKS!

Shawn DemumbrumSunday, May 1, 2016 at 2:28pm PDT

I'll book it for 10:30 am on Sunday

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 2:26pm PDT

Okay, just emailed you about one panel. I've got one more I'm going to pitch to you today... I'm just locking down the panelists for that one! Thankzzz

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 11:12am PDT

Cool. That should be no problem. Thanks!

Shawn DemumbrumSunday, May 1, 2016 at 8:11am PDT

Yes. I need them today though as well as their availability during con.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 12:44am PDT

Speaking of panels, some of my buddies I've paneled with here in LA a few times are exhibiting at PHXCC too. We do this panel called Gonzo: The Outer Limits of Comics together. Can I have my friend email you the details?

Jazlin Anica, Nick Marino
Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:44pm PDT

Okidoke

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:44pm PDT

if you hit any snags, i'll do my best to help!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:44pm PDT

you can just fill it out and email it to the guy Shawn from the panel proposal email

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:44pm PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:44pm PDT

I don't have MS Word so I really don't understand how that thing works

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:43pm PDT

GOOD!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:41pm PDT

It gives me hope, really. I know this is where I need to be

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:40pm PDT

You were born in 92. When I was 24, I was NO WHERE even close to what I'm doing now. Ya never know how things can change!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:40pm PDT

Haha

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:40pm PDT

You seem like an *on the fly* type person

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:39pm PDT

Ok cool

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:39pm PDT

Your personal view on all of it is what matters

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:39pm PDT

That's all good!!!!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:36pm PDT

Lol I haven't done an actual comic in ages. It's usually the occasional 2 to 5 panel meme strip haha

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:35pm PDT

Yeah it's just a one day badge

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:32pm PDT

hahahaha!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:32pm PDT

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:31pm PDT

Hhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:31pm PDT

so the cosplay is a great representation of that

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:31pm PDT

You're not only the youngin of the panel but you're our "future of comics"

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:31pm PDT

EVEN BETTER!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:16pm PDT

I'll probably be cosplaying. Is that alright?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

i assume

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

i should know soon

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

i knew there would be panel passes and i figured it would be cool to make sure i invited Phoenix peeps to the panel because of that!

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

*and wear both like a champ

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:15pm PDT

Makes sense. Might just purchase my 4 day then

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

if im being honest

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

but youll have a panel pass

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

*I'm way more excited than one should be

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

YEP

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

NO WAY

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:14pm PDT

okay cool well you'll get one for being a panelist

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:13pm PDT

Yeah I haven't gotten one yet

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:11pm PDT

Do you need a pass?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 5:11pm PDT

Saturday @ 7:30

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:02pm PDT

Nothing fancy, just like a one or two word description

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:02pm PDT

So how would I credit you in the panel?

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:59pm PDT

Coolio. That works for me

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:59pm PDT

One of the panelists would prefer that since he has to watch his kids!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:58pm PDT

I'll probably request a weekend time slot

Jazlin AnicaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:58pm PDT

Jamal Yaseem IgleSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:36pm PDT

Jamal Yaseem IgleSunday, May 1, 2016 at 4:36pm PDT

Okay

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:39pm PDT

Would you be interested in offering your perspective?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:39pm PDT

So far I've got Dwonch, a podcaster, a self-published artist, a producer, and a fan.

Here's the idea:

So I'm putting together a pitch for a last minute panel. The deadline is tonight! (But in my defense, I just found out this morning. Hah!)

Jamal Yaseem IgleSunday, May 1, 2016 at 3:24pm PDT

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 24, 2008 at 12:29pm PST

i'm totally not worried about having different influences. i just didn't want you to be disappointed that i wasn't well listened in the groups you listed. i'm interested so far. i like the sound of this "beats man" thing. where are you and kate at? i'm in shadyside, and wherever i'm going has to be easy to get to by bus.

14203400@facebook.comMonday, November 24, 2008 at 11:31am PST

haha just thought of something.. Those bands I listed are just my influences right now, just cause I thought I should throw some names around. It's cool if you have different ones.

14203400@facebook.comMonday, November 24, 2008 at 11:23am PST

hey thanks for gettin back man. Yeah I checked your stuff out. To be honest, im not sure what we're trying to do. We're just looking for a "beats man" if you know what i mean. An awesome drummer/ sampler/ another writer/ whatever it is another person brings to the table. Writing drum parts/ beats is sort of our weakness, so thats why we're looking for someone to join forces with. I have a nice Telecaster, a fender tube amp, and an acoustic I've been writing with. Kate plays bass and has an amazing voice (she could do many different styles, whatever the music ends up calling for). We have our comps, tamborines, an old 1970's wurlitzer organ, a trumpet, and some other gadgets and pedals to work with too. We're looking to write songs however we can. Seems like you are also multi-talented which is sweet. We're looking to get something you can groove too. Write some heavy songs, some funks, some rock, some mellow and melodic, whatevs. We want to write enough songs to start playing out. Then play some shows, cause we love shows. haha. But def since we have experience recording, we wnat to record too... cause why not. Here's our old band: www.myspace.com/aaralynband Those are some old tunes kate and i wrote as a full band. So it's def a different style then what we're trying to do. Sorry for the super long message.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 24, 2008 at 9:49am PST

i might be down. here's the solo stuff i've been doing for the past couple years: http://www.nikfurious.com - does this sound like it fits with what you're trying to do? to be totally honest, i know the bands you mentioned but i've barely listened to them (so i'm not quite sure what sound you're going for). are you looking at this as a live act too or primarily for recording?

14203400@facebook.comMonday, November 24, 2008 at 8:21am PST

Hey man. Just noticed your posting. Thought you may be interested. Don't know if you're interested but my girl and I have been working on creating something different for Pittsburgh. We need some great drumming, beat writing, and synth skills to help us out though. We are combining different music elements and intruments. Some songs may have vocal melodies, others may not. Some may have a couple different guitar melodies and harmonies, others may not. Just pretty much experimenting with tons of sounds. Looking to create somethign along the lines of Broken Social Scene, Tv on the Radio, DeerHunter, Sunny Day Real Estate, etc... We've both played in a few other bands, mostly indie and punk bands. But we separated from them to work on something different. We have a small studio set up in our house where we record and edit our ideas together using a few mics and our Macs. We aren't serious yet, but with some help we would be down with recording some sweet tunes and start playing shows or whatever. Just sort of looking to complete our sound and our lineup. We may need more people we don't know. Hit me up if you think you might be interested. -Tim

hey, so i know i'm a little past deadline, but... i have this story that i specifically designed for the CoM final issue. it's kind of ambitious conceptually and that's why it took me past the deadline to get it drawn. but i finished drawing it today and all i need to do now is get it onto the computer. is it too late? or can i still submit it to you by this weekend?

12320278@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 6:07am PDT

Glad you like them. I actually created the new one to be either a stand alone or to go inside the original. I figured I could tape the update into the original.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, September 19, 2010 at 6:17am PDT

hey i got them, they're awesome. thx. for some reason, i was imagining that the new stuff was gonna be tucked into the original Apt 307, and not a standalone like they are, so sorry if i was confusing with my questions!

12320278@facebook.comWednesday, September 8, 2010 at 7:12am PDT

Yeah, they haven't done anything with it yet. It's kind of a mystery. Here's the link to the Cincy show: www.cincinnaticomicexpo.com

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 8, 2010 at 7:11am PDT

i guess i was thinking of this. i assume there's no date yet for this show.

12320278@facebook.comWednesday, September 8, 2010 at 7:06am PDT

Yeah, I'd love to do SPX right now, but it's not in my budget. The Cincy show is not Wizard. It's just two guys who realized Cincinnati needs a good show. So far, they have around 60 guests lined up, including Murphy Anderson. So it should be pretty cool.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 8, 2010 at 7:04am PDT

okay! i totally get it now! for some reason, i thought you were doing SPX... but damn i understand. it's a haul and tables are a lot. anyway, i hope the Cinci show goes well. is it a Wizard show?

12320278@facebook.comWednesday, September 8, 2010 at 6:53am PDT

I'm actually not going to SPX. I have a few copies of 307 left, so I'll be low after the Cincy show. After that, I'll have some more printed and will send you some. For the new additional comic, I'm going to print up a bunch.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 7, 2010 at 3:15pm PDT

hey i was just reading this again and i realized i'm not 100% following you -- so you're printing up some 307s, but just for yourself at SPX and the Cinci show?

12320278@facebook.comWednesday, February 24, 2010 at 8:30am PST

You went to school with Celanie Polanick. She was one of my housemates/classmates when we were in grad school at Ohio University. Weird. P.S. How's the prep for SPACE coming along. I'm working on two new issues of Candy or Medicine to debut there plus a possible third, non-CorM comic. I bought a new computer, but I've been too distracted by Plants vs Zombies to do anything productive.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 21, 2009 at 2:01pm PDT

whenever. realistically, we probably won't be recording for at least a month since my cousin still needs to finish up the semester. i have a copy of Reason (an old one), but i've barely used it. i think i have Ableton Live too... i should get into both of them.

686445711@facebook.comMonday, April 20, 2009 at 12:51pm PDT

Hey all - Some of you may already be familiar with Project Basement ( http://www.audioshocker.com/tag/project-basement ), and some of you may not. For those who're not already acquainted with it, it's pretty simple -- capture the raw energy of a quick sketch or doodle regardless of skill or style. I just completed work on volume 1, which was kept fairly close to the vest in terms of who I invited to contribute (I didn't want it to flop after asking everyone and their brother to join in!). But it didn't flop... and now I want to widen that invite for volume 2, and I'm starting with the members here at the Sequential Underground group. Here are the rules: "draw your favorite character(s) from comic book/movie/tv/video games. anything goes, but nothing hateful/ignorant/mean spirited and no sex fan art. and don't spend too long! project basement is all about the raw energy of a doodle or a sketch. scan in your drawing at no less than 300 dpi and email it to nickmarino @ gmail.com p.s. for v2, i'm adding this rule: now i also want to see you sketch your least favorite characters! everything from before applies, except that i want to know why this character is on your @#$%-list when you send me the art!" So that's that. If you're interested, let me know so I can get a feel for how many contributors we're going to have. And invite your friends!

So in the past, I participated in the ISR Quickies which was a fun activity on the Indie Spinner Rack podcast forums. I thought SU could adopt the idea and have some fun with it. The original idea is a simple one - One person comes up with any theme or idea and draws a three-panel strip. The next person has to draw another three-panel strip continuing the story however they want, then the next cartoonist follows it with another three-panel strip further continuing the story and so on and so on until it either all falls apart or comes to a hilarious conclusion. Strips can be done in any style or medium, the only real "rule" is that no strip should take more than one hour to complete, give or take. Obviously this activity is a little tougher for the writers in the group, but if any writers do want to join in, they're more than welcome. Use stick figures, clip art, Photoshop, repurpose old comic book art, whatever...just create a strip! The first round of Strip Club will start on Friday. Anyone who wants to participate should respond on the SU Facebook page no later than midnight Thursday. I will post a list of participants so everyone knows who they're following. Any questions, let me know. Let's get drawing! Dan

hmmm someone looking for a roommate... i might. i'll keep my ears to the street. if you can, rent from Meyers Management. they're the best. stay away from Lobos Management, L&N, and most South Oakland landlords in general. your best best is Shadyside / North Oakland. you should start looking now!!!

564045506@facebook.comTuesday, June 3, 2008 at 9:30am PDT

I should be there mid August! I'm still in Seattle right now. But I'm looking for a place to live in Pittsburgh so if you know of anyone who is looking for a roommate in August then let me know! Hope you're doing well.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 23, 2008 at 5:55pm PDT

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, April 23, 2008 at 11:19am PDT

i'm good, thanks. pittsburgh, so far (please let it stay this way), is way sunnier and less rainy than it was back when i first moved here (almost) 8 (fucking) years ago. so hopefully it will still be good by the time you get here! what's an international development degree all about?

564045506@facebook.comTuesday, April 22, 2008 at 3:27pm PDT

hey! how are you? i hope things are going well. guess what? i'm going to Pitt in the fall! i can barely believe that i'm leaving the Pacific Northwest to go to the University of Pittsburgh, but I am for a Masters in Social work and Masters in International Development. What's going on with you? Courtney

hey i know what time you go to work but i dunno what time you finish (i'm done at 5:30) and if it's anything like the time i'm done, we should hang out and catch up some day. if you're down, that is. actually, it could be on the weekend too since we obviously live close by. so yeah, any time is good for me... cept not for the next week or so cause i'm moving. not far, just over to the place above Jimmy Tsang's. yeah, so i guess the main point of this message is that i think we should hang some time and catch up, but not until after May 24th. oh, and your picture a day site looks sweet. i'm gonna add it to my RSS reader.

Hey Nick! Sorry for the delay--I'm never on facebook! Unfortunately I won't be coming to Carnival...I'm super-bummed out about it, actually. It's just that I'm taking 3 days off of work the next week to go visit Daphne in Chicago, and I just can't take the Friday before that off. Wah--bummed. So have a great show and a great Carnival, ok? Actually--I'm going to be in Pgh THIS WEEKEND! Wanna come out on Saturday night? Email me: joannalovering@gmail.com Laters-- - Jo

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 7:19pm PST

hey Jo - are you coming around for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

Hey guys -- Dunno if you heard about it last year, but a group called Open Thread held a Small Press Festival on CMU's campus in July. I really enjoyed setting up at the show last year, so when it came time to plan this year's show, I jumped at the chance to handle anything comics-related and let all the local comics guys know about the opportunity. While the show is actually a week's worth of small press events, I think the most important part to the comics community will be the free weekend expo (which I hope to make into as much of a Pittsburgh small press comics show as possible). The exact weekend hasn't been decided yet. Right now, it's looking like either Sept 18-19 or 25-26. The show's location is probably going to be either Oakland or SQ Hill (but not CMU's campus, like it was last year). And the best part -- the exhibitor tables are only $25. This message is just an early heads up to let you guys know that the show is on. If you have any ideas for related events/panels/whatever, shoot me a line. In the meantime, I'll have more details over the course of the next month as the particulars get nailed down.

hey nick...yes, i'll be back....and yes, we should do something...and thanks for the bday wishes :)

4801997@facebook.comMonday, December 26, 2005 at 6:50am PST

hey happy bday (i know, i'm a little late). are you gonna be back in the burgh next semester? (and if the answer is yes to that) do you want to possibly consider thinking about maybe making tenative plans to meet up?

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, October 6, 2007 at 6:01am PDT

i'm loving the lowprofile comics. i don't use comicspace as much as a i so i hadn't seen them yet. i know making those probably keeps you busy, but if you ever want to collabo on something let me know. i love your art style and i have a million ideas i'm just waiting to write into comic scripts.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, January 3, 2007 at 4:52pm PST

everything is different. the first bunch were all scanned by my editor at the school paper, and i snagged them. the evil dick comics were all photoshop. but the frank sanchez comics were drawn, scanned, then lettered and cleaned up in photoshop. that's the way i do most of my work now. as for your comics... DO IT! POST THEM!! and tell me when you do so i can read them. check out this site too: http://www.comicspace.com - they should have their "post your comics" feature up soon.

70201094@facebook.comWednesday, January 3, 2007 at 10:53am PST

Nick, I was looking at your comics. Pretty funny. I was going to post some of my comics on facebook too. Did you just scan those into your computer or did you use a program to draw those? Ryan

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, June 29, 2010 at 2:07pm PDT

Awesome! I didn't know registration was open already, I'll have to sign up soon. Shawn, you want to split a table again or do you think Seth is gonna make the trip?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 29, 2010 at 2:04pm PDT

i registered for my SPACE table last night! requested spots next to you guys...

1077923989@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 8:45pm PDT

awesome

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 8:38am PDT

I'll send him a message to politely light a fire under his ass. ;)

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 8:33am PDT

hahahaha yeah he posted the comment last night

1077923989@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 8:03am PDT

not saying we shouldnt skip him lets see how it pans out over the next couple days

1077923989@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 8:02am PDT

i dont know he posted a comment on your strip saying hes on it

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 6:47am PDT

yo barry's slackening on his strip! should we just skip to the next guy?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 24, 2010 at 9:44am PDT

okay, my strip is up.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 10:28am PDT

true i guess i jumped the gun abit

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 10:24am PDT

Yeah I agree Shawn, we want interaction to happen naturally. We don't want to assume people will want to post on the SU site, but I think we should leave the possibility open in the future. Plus, we have to remember, SU isn't even a month old yet. I'm not worried about interest falling off right now, I'm just thinking ahead. No one else has signed up for Strip Club yet, but I think we should still do it and post the results. Maybe once others see what we do, they'll join up for the next round.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 10:19am PDT

true that but its kinda tough now to keep people interacting with the facebook page any suggestions should we ask the toonseum? hey dan did you get any more signed up for the drawing exercise you posted the other day

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 10:00am PDT

I think eventually we'll want to add users to the WordPress site, otherwise it will just be the three of us posting and it might get kinda stale.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 9:49am PDT

right now, individuals have to be added manually to post to SU wordpress. we can set it up so they have to register and then they can post (i think)... but we'd have to be on spam watch if we put it on that setting. what are you envisioning?

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, May 12, 2010 at 9:03am PDT

Hey guys, something just occurred to me; we invited SU members to update the SU Facebook page, but will SU members be allowed to post to the Wordpress page? Should we keep posting privileges to the three of us for now?

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, May 6, 2010 at 9:11am PDT

Yeah we need to make it clear that everyone is invited to post stuff. We don't want people to think that SU is just for us three.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 6, 2010 at 7:30am PDT

yes i totally agree

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, May 6, 2010 at 7:23am PDT

hey guy im startin to notice that we're the only ones putting updates for su should put a post saying that everyone whose a member can put there news on the su wall

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 11:10am PDT

hells yeah!

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 11:06am PDT

cool i guess we should invite everyone again

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 10:56am PDT

okay guys you're both admins on the SU fan page

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 10:28am PDT

i def down with the comic idea. sorry i forgot to say yes before. Dan, you're an admin on the SU blog now.

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 9:12am PDT

Sweet. Well I'll get the Quickie started today/tonight.

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 9:00am PDT

im cool with both dan i like both ideas

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 8:57am PDT

Oh yeah I forgot! That's cool with me. By the way, am I set up to log into the SU Wordpress page? Did I give you my info? Oh and what do you guys think of the Quickie idea? Want to get it started?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 8:55am PDT

hey didn't hear a response back on this either way last time so i thought i'd mention it again... but i was wondering if you guys wanted to also make a Sequential Underground page (like Shawn and Seth's EotU page, for example) as well. i can't automatically update the SU group with the feed from our blog cause groups don't have that feature, but i can if we get a page. also, if we have a page, then updates to the SU page will show up in people's FB news feeds just like a friend's profile would show up. with a group, people have to manually go check it out or we have to message them.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 7:04pm PDT

photoshop!! now we're cookin with gas

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 6:32pm PDT

Well...that's the one problem isn't it? They're certainly welcome to participate if they want, they can use stick figures, Photoshop, clip art, whatever.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 6:05pm PDT

ya know i'd be down for that i have one question what would the comic writers do

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 12:08pm PDT

So in the past, I participated in the ISR Quickies which was a fun activity on the Indie Spinner Rack podcast forums.

The next person has to draw a three-panel strip continuing the story however they want, then the next cartoonist has to follow it with another three-panel strip further continuing the story and so on and so on until it all falls apart or comes to a hilarious conclusion. The one rule is that no strip should take more than one hour to complete.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 11:07am PDT

I'm thinking that we should start some small project for the group to keep the momentum going and let everyone know we're not just talk. I have an idea that I think people will respond to and it won't be a huge time committment. I'll give more details when I get back from lunch.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 10:59am PDT

i love the responses so far its exciting it seems that we hit a good nerve with this

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 10:46am PDT

Yeah I agree, we really don't have anything going other than just starting up. Its cool that so many people are excited about SU.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 10:42am PDT

hey guys harry copec asked me if there was anything can do to help i told really know off the top of my head you guys have any ideas,i mean we're pretty much all set up right and everything else is gravy from here on out

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 7:50am PDT

cool ill do it today

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 7:19am PDT

I agree, I personally like Spreadshirt's site & store setup better than Cafe Press, but either way is fine with me.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 7:13am PDT

yeah i'm def down. might wanna use spreadshirt though cause i think they're way cheaper

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 6:38pm PDT

Heck yeah man. I'll be one of the first to buy one!

1077923989@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 6:35pm PDT

hey gang i was thinking maybe we could put the logo on some t shirts sell them though cafepress its an idea and split three ways or something

1077923989@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 6:19pm PDT

sweetass fb page sure thing nick, dan it fb page looks good

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 5:34pm PDT

looks awesome! do you guys think we should also make an SU page? they have some extra features, plus they show up in that "pages" section on people's profiles with an icon. and you can "like" a page too.

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 3:24pm PDT

Alright guys, the SU Facebook group is up. As soon as you guys join it, I'll make you admins.

1077923989@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 10:21pm PDT

sent to you dan

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 9:24pm PDT

Thanks Shawn. Hey Nick, I created a wordpress ID, it's dvgreenwald, but I had to use a different email address to sign up, which is comicbookpitt@gmail.com.

1077923989@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 9:22pm PDT

Stephanie is writing this. The SU wordpress page looks badass!

1077923989@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 9:11pm PDT

okay on it

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 8:49pm PDT

dan, did you ever sign up for wordpress? just wanted to knwo if i should try adding your email yet

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, May 1, 2010 at 4:00pm PDT

Hey Shawn, can you send me the SU logo? I'm going to make the SU Facebook page tonight and I wanted to put it up there.

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 1:25pm PDT

Cool...I just wanted to make sure there were going to be some familiar faces around. :)

1077923989@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 1:12pm PDT

yeah ill be there i helped make cupcakes

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 12:42pm PDT

yeah but a bit later. maybe around 1030 i'm thinking?

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 12:29pm PDT

Sweet! That rocks man. Hey, totally off subject, but are yinz guys going to Paige's party tonight?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 12:05pm PDT

whateves. i'm lazy. signing up for the long one right now. btw, you guys need to create wordpress id's to access the blog. go to wordpress.com (not .org).

1077923989@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 11:23am PDT

s underground... thats kinda tough ill put it in the brain soup figure something

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 11:20am PDT

hmmm nope just plain sequential not available (though the blog is deleted). i guess sequentialunderground.wordpress.com it is, though that's kinda long. any other ideas?

1077923989@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 10:56am PDT

im cool

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 10:55am PDT

i was just gonna go with sequential.wordpress.com -- is that good with you guys? if that's not available, then i guess i'll go for the full name.

1077923989@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 10:53am PDT

same here anything you need me to do

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 10:37am PDT

lol...I was thinking the same thing Nick!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 10:29am PDT

hmmm if we can get the Facebook page posts and Wordpress posts to aggregate to the same Twitter feed, then i think it might be worth it. btw, Barry's recent post for a PGH local art show sounds like a job for Sequential Underground!

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 9:37am PDT

I agree with Wordpress over Blogger. Nick, if you set up the blog, I'll set up the Facebook page. No reason why we can't have both, right? And should we bother with a Twitter account at this point?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 9:33am PDT

fo' sho'! where should we put the blog? i nominate wordpress cause they have a great access system that lets people easily share posting abilities. blogspot does the same (though i don't think it's as pretty).

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 9:11am PDT

Alright, sounds like we're in business. So what's next, start spreading the word around? Maybe get a Facebook page and/or a blog started?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 30, 2010 at 9:03am PDT

also agreed.

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 9:56pm PDT

agreed sounds good

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 5:46pm PDT

I think we all got a little confused because, let's face it, it's not easy having a three-way conversation on Facebook! lol We all agree that whoever is in SU should actively working on comics or have some work to show already. We all agree that SU will be a way to do what Nick said, exchange info, promote each other, and present a unified collective. Since it's still technically just the three of us, I think we can also agree that we don't want to bite off more than we can chew. We should start as a local group. If people outside want to join, we'll just let them know what our standards are and go from there, but our primary focus should be getting our local friends and creators in on the ground floor.

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 2:02pm PDT

heres my thoughts on who should join up anyone whose down on creating comics and no wannabes, i think they should have at least one ashcan done and want to do more as who join geography it doesn't matter to me as long as they willing to support the other guys cause if we have other members in other states that means they're getting the word on all of us which would be kinda dope course. i could be way off subject with this jaunt

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 1:57pm PDT

nothing new to add really... pretty much what i said before. my original personal vision was for it to be a pittsburgh comic creator collective, a way to exchange info and promote each other in a unified way (to both each other and in the city at large... like, you know, when it comes time to get a block of tables at the Pitt Con, which, by the way, Wayne wants to do for next year as well). but if you guys see it as something bigger and more open, i'm okay with that! your visions seem to be much stronger than mine so i'm down for wherever those ideas take us.

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 10:32am PDT

Well I want to hear what you think...how are you seeing things? I think we should all agree and be happy with the direction this group is headed. I don't have a preference as far as who joins the group, but if you definitely want to keep it local, which is what it sounds like to me, then we have to keep an eye on who joins.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 10:25am PDT

okay gotcha. well it seems to me like you guys def agree on the direction and the last thing i wanna do is hold up any of the group creation process just cause i see things a little differently. i'm down with whatever you guys decide.

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 10:07am PDT

I'm talking about people joining the group in a general sense.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 9:55am PDT

wait... i'm confused. dan, are you talking about joining as in joining a Facebook group? or joining as in we will promote your work?

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 9:24am PDT

i can be down with that dan

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 8:33am PDT

That's my point, if we want SU to be a group for local creators only, we'll have to actively manage who is able to join up. And managing who can or can't join up means having a "closed" group and people would only be able to join by invitation or by member recommendation.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 8:23am PDT

hmmm i guess i don't really have a vision for that aspect of it so it's hard for me to pick one option. i'm down with whatever you guys think is best. i just want to make sure that SU favors our locals guys first and foremost and doesn't become something that someone we don't know tries to co-op as a PR opportunity for their comics we've never seen.

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 4:58am PDT

That's the way I'm leaning as well.

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 4:56am PDT

hhhmmm that is a tough one if i had to go with anything i'd go with (c)

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 9:35pm PDT

I think it would be difficult to limit SU to Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co, etc. We would be spending a lot of time trying to determine whether or not someone lived within SU's "boundaries", whatever they may be. I think our options are to (a) have membership be by invitation only, (b) alter SU's name and/or mission statement to include and stress the word "Pittsburgh" so people understand that SU is regional group or (c) let SU's online/social networking presence attract anyone, but only allow local creators to utilize the SU brand, participate in collaborations, etc. Thoughts?

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 8:46pm PDT

sounds good to me i don't think anything to add as locally are we just doing Pittsburgh or should we include Allegheny county

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 8:27pm PDT

Yeah I thought I'd leave the first draft somewhat generic because I couldn't remember if we decided if we were going to make it that specific or leave it open for anyone.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 8:18pm PDT

looks great! the only unmentioned thing i noticed (which probably doesn't belong in the mission statement but should, in my opinion, probably be stated explicitly) is that we're focusing locally right now, mostly in the pittsburgh area.

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 7:44pm PDT

Here's what I have so far for a mission statement: Sequential Underground ("SU") is a casual collective of independent comic book/webcomic creators. The purpose of SU is to build a support group for creative individuals who are actually working on comics, either in print form or online, as well as to build strong friendships and possible good future business relationships. SU exists to promote the hobby and the artform of comics and will focus on... 1. Community - SU will be a community for comic creators in the area so we can have one place to go to share and find out what's going on in the area - this is accomplished through social networking, blog posts, email or meeting in person. 2. Education - SU will share knowledge between members and use one another for critiques and advice. SU will work to increase awareness and promote the medium to the community at large. 3. Networking - SU will serve as a "matchmaker" of sorts - to join creators together in creative teams and/or to collaborate on projects. SU also acts as a "banner" for creators to use at conventions or for publishing purposes.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 12:19pm PDT

okay okay ill look into it sheesh

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 11:26am PDT

Yeah you really can do a lot with a Gmail account aside from just email.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 10:36am PDT

fo real shawn, you should get one! then you can try out that Google Docs drawing thing i was telling you about!!! seriously tho, it might not be a bad idea to get a gmail account... unless you hate having multiple emails, that is.

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 9:23am PDT

That's it! You're out! ...lol

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 9:03am PDT

i dont have a gmail account sorry

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 7:36am PDT

Shawn, do you have a Gmail account? If you do, we can use the Documents application to share/edit docs between all three of us.

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 7:10am PDT

should have it drafted and out to you cats tonight. I didn't get anything done on it Monday or yesterday, but I'm going to work on it today.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 7:06am PDT

how close are ya

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 7:04am PDT

That's cool with me. I just don't want to really put it out there for public consumption until we have the mission statement finished.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 6:56am PDT

cool

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 6:53am PDT

if you guys want, i can start the fan page (well, more like reserve the name) and sign up for a twitter account under the SU name. any other blogish / social mediaish we trying to use for this?

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, April 28, 2010 at 6:36am PDT

oh i thought you went

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 8:12pm PDT

Good question...I have no idea and I don't know anyone who went.

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:51pm PDT

oh who was the special guest at doc sketchy

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:50pm PDT

i'll get crackin on it tonight or tomorrow

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:25pm PDT

I concur and yes I think we agreed on one we both liked.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:23pm PDT

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:47am PDT

cool cant wait ill work on some thumbnails for the logo today

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:06am PDT

Nice. I'm working on the mission statement. Hopefully I'll have a draft that you guys can look at soon.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 7:03am PDT

hey fact checker, here's how it went down - my parents moved to nashville when i moved to pittsburgh*** then my dad moved to new hampshire and my mom moved to philly. confused? me too. i never had a vision of "future kelly" but i def didn't imagine you would go on to study your ass off like you have. why micro biology? nyc didn't work for me but i'm probably moving back in the summer. or miami. nah probably not miami. well, maybe. there's a .00004% chance of miami. and you're seriously thinking rochester? nah, that town is too small for you. *** to go to school and study design which turned into comics which turned into my degree of history + video production + audio production which turned into a complete lack of a career which lead me to work on a naked zombie film in LA, a TV theme song production house in NYC, and a Porsche dealership in Pittsburgh. turst me, it's all true. i couldn't make that stuff up. and my dream job? complicated. i'll answer that question next time.

27902548@facebook.comThursday, February 16, 2006 at 7:10am PST

Nick Well, I’m still working on my bachelors, after deciding to double major in biology and psychology, but I will be finish this spring. I am hoping to attend graduate school for molecular biology, however I don’t where I want to go…maybe Washington or Colorado? We’ll see. I know that I need a break from school, or else I think I’ll really burn out (my head will explode or I’ll start killing people). I’m actually thinking of moving back to Rochester this spring, but only for the next year (I don’t know how long I can survive there). So if NYC didn’t work out for you, where do you think your going next? I have a few random questions for you, a little fact checking if you will. Correct me if I’m wrong, your family moved to PA, didn’t they? About six years ago, right? You went to school for illustration/cartoon-making, right? If so, then what is your dream job? kelly

yeah i'm back in PA after being in Brooklyn for a year, but probably not for long. i've basically been learning the hard way that going to college does not give you a career. how about you? how is school and what have you been doing?

27902548@facebook.comMonday, February 13, 2006 at 10:17pm PST

it has been a long time since i have talked to you. how have you been? still in PA?

count me in i totally didnt see you post last week sorry

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:34am PDT

I'm in. Sounds like a lot of fun.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:29am PDT

hey all - so last week i put a comment out there that i'm trying to do a lo-fi fan project where people draw their favorite superheroes and supervillains. you guys didn't respond, but you're my comics friends, so i thought i'd contact you directly to see if you're interested in contributing. it's not like a drawing competition or some sort of high-quality comic art thing. my idea was for it to be a collection of drawings like the kind of doodles you'd do in your school notebook or a stick figure you'd draw on a napkin. ya know, fun and fast. the idea is a reaction to "project: rooftop," which is this blog that puts out super-polished redesigns of superheroes. cool idea, but stiff execution that zaps some of the fan fun out of it, in my opinion. so if you're still interested, shoot me a line. way i'm planning it right now, i'd put up one drawing a week on my blog and then eventually collect all of the submissions into a zine/mini-comic (which i'd print up on my own dollar and give some to everyone who contributes). there's no deadline for it, but i think it'd be nice to have it wrapped up by the end of the summer.

Sketchy was happening at the Cypsy Cafe on the Southside... it was on hiatus over the summer and was supposed to return in the fall. but it never happened. as of right now, it's sort of MIA. thx for letting me know about the Super Haters problem! i have yet to test out the site with mobile. in fact, i want to build droid and iphone apps for it, but those are tricky!!! but i'm definitely gonna look into it. i appreciate the heads up.

And please remember to put your website/business card with them! They are all fantastic and I'd be proud to raffle off any of them!

591074559@facebook.comWednesday, December 1, 2010 at 8:01am PST

Hey Jami, I've got some art prints I can donate. If you go here: http://davedrawscomics.blogspot.com/p/store.html , pick out 5 you think would be good (except the logan/deadpool piece, it's currently sold out), I'll sign them and they're yours. I'm down in Mt Lebanon, but I can drop them off at Phantom of the Attic tomorrow, I think they should be okay with that. Sorry I've waited to the last minute, better late than never, right? I'm still a 'Maybe' on the party, I hope I can make it but it's still up in the air. -Dave

508322096@facebook.comMonday, November 29, 2010 at 8:27am PST

That's great! Bring it when you can.

626071353@facebook.comMonday, November 29, 2010 at 8:16am PST

Jami, Dave said that he can print mine at home. I have a small frame to put it in too. I'll let you know how things go. Should I just bring it with me on Fri?

508322096@facebook.comMonday, November 29, 2010 at 7:43am PST

If you can digitally send art for the raffle, I'd be happy to print it like I am for Nick. Either submit the link or email jamiluvfest@yahoo.com. I'll take care of the rest. Thanks to everyone for keeping this in mind. I know time is hectic and you are all very busy. I appreciate anything you can do.

508322096@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 6:06am PST

Here ya go: http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/jami-luvfest.jpg Hi-res 11x17 donation for the Luvfest!!! SEE YOU THERE!!

508322096@facebook.comMonday, November 22, 2010 at 8:27am PST

I know I have reached out to you in the past about donating a piece to the art raffle at Jami Luvfest. Again, it doesn't have to be an original piece (though I'm more than happy to accept it) or even tying into the theme "Space Oddity". I'd be happy with an old piece of art you may have stashed away in your closet or maybe an extra print you're willing to donate. This goes for photographs as well. If you are willing to supply me with a file, I'd be happy to print it out and put it in the raffle. I know there's more than a few excellent photographers in this group. The party is Friday, December 3, and I hope you all can make it to see what everyone else donates. I am taking off work on Thursday, December 2 and can run around downtown/southside/oakland area to pick up artwork if needed. Again, thanks to everyone for their support. I keep telling people how freaking creative Pittsburgh people are!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

nice! i'll follow you on there too

Scott HedlundMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

Just sent it to your gmail. You're all set! I added Action Lab Danger Zone to my Tumblr follows too

Nick MarinoMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

congrats! can you send me a slightly higher res version than the one NDC posted? i don't want it to be all pixelated on tumblr! maybe like 800 px wide? you can email it to me or just send it here through FB.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 26, 2012 at 8:52am PDT

Hmmm tough to say... but I think $40 is fair, if you feel like going that high. Tell people they save over $10!!!

Scott HedlundWednesday, September 26, 2012 at 8:13am PDT

I thought it over and I think I will pass on NYC this year. There are too many variables that I would need to lock down. Plus, I'm setting up at the Mid-Ohio (Wizard) comicon this weekend and I already have lots of money rolled into that show. Hopefully I sell a bunch of books! I'm doing another "Super Buy" at Mid-Ohio. I totaled all of my table merch and it is $51.50 for one of each book. At Pgh Con, the Super Buy was $30 for everything. Now I'm thinking it should be a little higher, maybe $35. But I really want it to be a price that people will pull the trigger and buy. In your opinion, what would you say is the "action" price?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 12:06pm PDT

Hahaha sorry!!! When I contacted Dan about it a month or so ago, I was looking to find someone to share a table with me. Shortly after that, someone else contacted me and we lined up a table share. But last week, our organizer floated this request out at us. One of the reasons I didn't mention it to you earlier is because my travel and lodging stuff is already settled and so I can't really be of much help in that area and I feel bad bringing up NYCC when I can't split any of those costs with you. I stay with my sister's family in NYC and I've had my plane tickets for a couple of months. It's a fantastic show and our podcast tables should be in Artists Alley (although last year we were in the waaaay back). But I know this is crazy short notice! Last year, when I first got in on the offer, I had to really sell myself as a good addition to the Podcast Arena. I dunno how it would be this year, especially since it seems like we're in a tight spot with a lack of podcasts. Just want to mention that so you know what you're getting into if you decide you want to talk to the organizer about repping CBP at the show.

Scott HedlundTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 11:22am PDT

Wow that is extremely tempting! I see the date for the show is the 11th thru the 14th. (Thurs - Sunday). That really cuts into the work week, which could be the biggest hurdle. I already took a week off for the Star Wars con, and I have a big project due at the end of October. Not sure I could get the time off, not to mention the travel time. Also, what is your travel/lodging agenda? I would need to figure that out too, before I consider jumping in. I really want to do this show, I had already written it off for this year and was planning to do it next year. Now you're putting the temptation right in front of me! lol!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 10:52am PDT

Yo I know this is ridiculously last minute, but do you have any interest in repping a Comic Book Pitt at a table at NYCC in a few weeks? I mentioned the idea to Dan a couple of months ago and he turned it down. But in the past week, another opportunity has popped up and the guy who organizes the block of podcast tables at NYCC is looking for more shows to join up. It's a super low table price for NYCC -- $150 -- and you'd have to go under the guise of Comic Book Pitt, but you could still sell your comics at your table.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 21, 2012 at 5:36am PDT

yeah, no prob. we've always got Phantom as a backup!!

Scott HedlundFriday, September 21, 2012 at 5:20am PDT

I'm not sure I will make it. I'm thinking about checking out Horror Realm as well, so I'm trying to figure out how my Saturday is going to turn out. lol If I don't make it, can you leave the books at Phantom? I'll pick them up on Wednesday.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 20, 2012 at 9:23pm PDT

Are you coming to the Zine Fair this weekend? If so, I can give you your Super Haters comics there.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2011 at 8:28am PDT

Okay, I'm down!!! Those concepts are too good to pass up! Any ideas on how we could expand the artist pool? I feel like I'm a bit tapped out on my personal network of artists, and it might help to get some fresh blood in for your Good Bad Guys theme.

Scott HedlundTuesday, April 26, 2011 at 5:50pm PDT

I had a hard time thinking of whose costume design I would want to draw, which is why I didn't have anything for the last one. I already thought of three or four things I would draw for this concept. (ie Kingpin buying ice cream for the kids in the neighborhood, Red Skull teaching CPR, Doc Doom grading science projects, etc.) It seems like something that people could grab onto and come up with some internet worthy ideas.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2011 at 5:28pm PDT

What do you think?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2011 at 5:27pm PDT

I LOVE IT!!!! But my response has been low lately... dunno if peeps are interested in it anymore...

Scott HedlundTuesday, April 26, 2011 at 11:27am PDT

Crazy idea just popped into my head (thanks to something I just read on FB) How about a Project Basement that features Villians doing nice things? Call it "Good Bad Guys" or "the softer side of Villains" or "Kinder, gentler, evil" or something. Sorry, just a random thought! :)

507676544@facebook.comThursday, August 7, 2008 at 9:49am PDT

i thought about you the other day so i thought id say hello. i hope all is well with you. did you go to comic-con?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 14, 2007 at 7:55am PDT

i went out there a few years ago and worked on the set of a naked zombie movie. it was decent cause i got to go on the Fox lot and i stayed up on Sunset, but it wasn't my bag. i think when i move to Cali, i'll go more south than LA.

507676544@facebook.comWednesday, June 13, 2007 at 10:12am PDT

it is going really well. i feel very lucky. i work in hospitality PR. We do PR for restaurants and hotels and wineries. its fine for now but i'm not a sales person or a kiss ass so i wont last long in the world of PR. i am happy with it for now though. i am going to go back to school for language. european languages to be exact. i'm looking forward to it. dont know what the hell i will do with a degree in language but i just want to do something i enjoy. so.....its warm here!!!!! do you have any interest in LA?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 12, 2007 at 7:14pm PDT

wow that sounds like it is going REALLY well out there. what do you do? PGh is alright. i'll be here for about 2 more years and then i'm going somewhere warm.

507676544@facebook.comTuesday, June 12, 2007 at 10:49am PDT

LA is ok. I lived in San Diego for a year and then I moved here. I actually hated it at first and by at first i mean for pretty much my entire first year in LA. I left Rochester to get away from the small town going nowhere feeling and I definitely got it in San Deigo but its much more "normal" there than in Los Angeles. I think if you dont instantly love LA you have to give it at least a year and then you will see the good parts of it. I am happy here now but I know I wont be here forever. I am really spoiled now because we just moved into an amazing house and I have a good job and Jake is opening a recording studio and all these great things are happening but for the almost 2 years before this it was a struggle to enjoy living here. I need to stop rambling. How is Pittsburgh? Do you think you will stay there for a long time?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, June 11, 2007 at 4:15pm PDT

hah! if only i could get my art famous! con is out there. he's on my friends profile on myspace. shoot him a message! how is LA?

507676544@facebook.comMonday, June 11, 2007 at 9:58am PDT

i feel slightly pathetic that i have a myspace and a facebook page with pretty much the same exact friends list. anyway, doesnt conrad live out here? where is he? why dont you live here? come visit. i still have the drawing you made for me (and the tape). i think i shall frame it and when you are famous i can say i have a nick marino original!

everything is great. did a bunch of travelling since college and have been managing at a restaurant because the hours were felxible and the money was good but now im looking to settle into a more regular working schedule and maybe put my degree to use. no doubt finding a job might be hard to come by but at least i have income in the meantime hah

Niki KristineThursday, March 28, 2013 at 2:40pm PDT

Niki KristineThursday, March 28, 2013 at 2:18pm PDT

and yeah i can recommend email contact

Niki KristineThursday, March 28, 2013 at 2:18pm PDT

the only one that has actually asked for references so far is a Program coordinator position that seems like it will end up being marketing oriented toward prospective students pertaining to the admissions process.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 28, 2013 at 2:17pm PDT

Hey bud! Yeah, it's totally cool. I'll ref you up. nickmarino@gmail.com 484-798-7753 If possible, tell 'em to email me instead of calling me because I suck at answering my phone. Anything in particular you want me to say? Are these jobs gonna be writing gigs or office gigs or what?

Niki KristineThursday, March 28, 2013 at 2:08pm PDT

Hey Nick, Long time no talk! I was just contacting you out of the blue because I was wondering if it would be okay to use you as a professional reference since I am finally getting around to looking for a new job. I would really appreciate it. Let me know what you think and if its okay can you send me your contact info. Thanks so much!! -Niki

Nick MarinoMonday, December 13, 2010 at 2:21pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 13, 2010 at 10:49am PST

This Daddy was great. thx for that. it made go back and look at Daddy's Pearls again... which will always be funny and creepy to me.

Niki WaltersMonday, December 13, 2010 at 10:04am PST

Hey Nick, I was wondering if you could do me a favor and hook me up with the number of someone in HR who I can talk to about sending tax info stuff to my new address hah. thanks! For your trouble here is another creepy blog like "Daddy's pearls": http://www.thisdaddysblog.com/ his go to catchphase is "Kiss the baby" .. enjoy

1222890047@facebook.comMonday, September 6, 2010 at 10:58am PDT

Sucks that the intern was no good. I'm just doing the same old stuff.. mostly working on saving up for my trip to Vegas for my birthday in later sept/early oct and for my trip around ireland in March. how are things in pgh and at esa??

4801997@facebook.comThursday, September 2, 2010 at 12:48pm PDT

sup. the intern turned out to be painfully annoying. what you doing now?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 11:46am PDT

yeah that is good. and looks like the theater major might actually be a competent writer. who knew?

1222890047@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 10:00am PDT

Yeah the european trip is in the works but wont be for a while cause I have to save up money and my old roommate need to do the same. It's def happening still though. And yeah, the rent is being paid which is good.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 9:58am PDT

nice. you still going on your european trip? and did you get paid by mcnasty???

1222890047@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 9:52am PDT

you know it.. a place called red brick station. let the money saving commence, hopefully!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 9:50am PDT

naw, i give up. it's too much damn work. and, except for you, we haven't found a good new intern in like a year and a half. i think that RIC site is just flooded now and most of the applicants suck. you find a job? waitressing i assume

1222890047@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 9:48am PDT

OH MY GOSH! didn't see that one coming. What an idiot girl! that is really annoying. I'm sure the theater major has alllll the right qualifications....um. So, are you back to searching?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 26, 2010 at 9:46am PDT

brittany bell got the boot by admin/HR because she had two arrests for underage drinking and one conviction. remember when i was like "we have to run a background check so if there's anything we need to know, you should tell me now!" grrr!!! now we're internless... except someone from work comp wants their kid to come work here for the summer....... he's an NYU theater major...

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 18, 2010 at 9:13pm PDT

ESA is boring. my office is so boring! Bell gets there in one month. ugh. so far away/.

1222890047@facebook.comTuesday, May 18, 2010 at 10:01am PDT

hahah wow! you really do have some strange dreams. How's ESA? When does Bell get there?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 18, 2010 at 4:16am PDT

just had this strange dream that you invited me to stay at your rents house for a week. at first, we just sat around all the time cause you caught a cold, and watch SNL reruns. then eventually you got better so you started having mini parties at night. and the morning after i'd wake up super early and run around your house while everyone was asleep. SO WEIRD. nice house though, and your parents looked like soap opera stars.

1222890047@facebook.comFriday, May 7, 2010 at 1:38pm PDT

hah i was entertaining at the very least! home's home. its a nice break from money spending and over drinking. lol

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 7, 2010 at 12:18pm PDT

omg so boring here with you! i hate intern withdrawal. happens everytime. home's home + no school?

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, April 22, 2010 at 4:56am PDT

By the way, I know where Nick lives and I have his phone number, but Shawn, I don't have your address/phone. I only know that you live near Pat Catan's, which I've been to before, so I know the area. Also, if you don't have my number and need to get a hold of me, it's 724-799-4388.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 10:04am PDT

Yep, that's why I already scheduled that day off.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 10:03am PDT

urghfff. i'm gonna be so burnt out next monday. such a bad monday for sketchy's!

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 7:37am PDT

oh cool i figured it was this or the next thanks dan

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 7:35am PDT

I just checked and Dr Sketchy is next Monday, the 26th. Didnt want you guys to waste a trip to the South Side. :)

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 7:31am PDT

you guys dont need to worry about water steph got some yesturday hey nick is doc sketchy tonite

4801997@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 7:06am PDT

okay sounds awesome. thx for offering to drive!!! i'm glad to take care of most of the gas! BTW, i'm going to Wally-Mart tonight, so if there's some sort of snack thing you guys want, then lemme know and i'll pick it

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, April 18, 2010 at 7:23pm PDT

Hey guys! Okay, so if we're all in agreement, I think the plan is that I'll drive us to SPACE and the only cost will be splitting the gas. The show starts at 10:00am on Saturday. I think if we arrive no later than 9:30am, we'll be in good shape. The trip is a roughly three hours, give or take, so if we leave town at 6:00am, that should put us in Columbus when we need to be there. I'm hoping that because we're leaving so early, we should make good time at the start. My plan is to pick up Shawn first around 5:00-5:15, then Nick & Justique, which should be somewhere between 5:30-5:45. I'm cool with people eating in my car, so bring whatever snacks/drinks you want. If there's anything I didn't cover, let me know. I'm really looking forward to this weekend, I think it's going to be a lot of fun. Dan

All - As you may have seen by now, I've created an event listing for us each to invite people to PIX next weekend (which is fast approaching)! I already know that a number of you plan to attend, and some of you can't. Regardless, I wanted to reach out with an extra-special appeal to my extra-special people. For those of us involved in the comic-book creating community of Pittsburgh, we need to get the word out far-and-wide about this. Let's start sending out MAD invites to PIX. Send them to EVERYONE, not just the people you know who read comic-books. Send invites to friends and supporters and people who may just be looking for something different to do that weekend. Send it to coworkers who won't mind. Invite EVERYONE. Please. I just did some quick math, and between all the friends of the 30 folks reading this message (including me!), we have approx. 10,000 friends! (You read that right!) We don't actually have to invite EVERYONE...but I kindly suggest(!) you invite 10 percent of your facebooks friends to PIX, and ask them to do the same in turn. Then we'll watch the numbers add up! If PIX succeeds, we all succeed. And I REALLY want PIX to succeed. Thanks for all you do, troops. Peace, love, and BE GOOD! - Marcel

hey Jeannie, are you gonna be in town for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

Prachi Gupta, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 3:45pm PDT

emailed! i hope you dig it ;)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

will do! thx :D

Prachi GuptaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 3:38am PDT

Hey! Yes I think that could be pretty fun for a piece! Do you have a draft or sample of writing you can send to me? It really hinges in execution and voice, since it's not an NYC story. Hit me up at Prachi@animalnewyork.com

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:26pm PDT

i know ANIMAL is basically NYC stuff and this doesn't fit nicely into that. but i thought i'd ask anyway! and if it's not right for your site, it'd be super cool if you could possibly connect me to any friends / sites / mags / blogs who might be interested in running something like this.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:23pm PDT

a few years ago, i got fed up with all of the emails meant for other Nicks and i started playing along with these people. i can send you a bunch of examples on my blog if you wanna see. anyway, point is i sent this woman some ridiculous replies but she still thinks i'm the journalist. she's about to set me up with interviews with skydivers and she even vaguely offered to fly me to North Carolina for the competition! my idea is to write the article... but make it about how i kept playing along with this case of mistaken identity and how this situation escalated into me interviewing skydivers and so on. do you think ANIMAL might be interested in running an article like that?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

basically, people are always emailing me thinking i'm a different Nick Marino. i guess my name is kinda common. so i got this email the other day from a woman who thinks i'm a journalist named Nick Marino and she wants me to write an article about a skydiving competition in North Carolina.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:18pm PDT

praaaaccchi! i've got myself in goofy situation and i'm wondering if maybe ANIMAL can help me out and in the process i can hook ANIMAL up with a ridiculous story.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, September 11, 2008 at 8:06am PDT

we should be there for at least a few hours. shawn normally leaves around 5 or so. i actually have some drawing / inking to catch up on so i might be there even later this week. it's a weekly thing but shawn's work schedule shifts so it's not always the same time or the same day. here's my number - 484-498-7753 - feel free to give me a call when you finish on saturday and see if we're still there.

14200032@facebook.comThursday, September 11, 2008 at 5:19am PDT

Hey, so something just came up that I have to go to starting at 12:30. It is for a future job so I kind of have to go, and I am really not sure how long it will last. How long will you guys be at Kiva Han for? Do you do this thing weekly? Let me know, because it would definitely be really cool. Thanks, Prachi

nice.

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 25, 2015 at 9:49pm PDT

Probably. This year I'd like to not have to be there right at opening every day. No bothersome roomies this time.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 7:26pm PDT

sweeeeet. you gonna be there wed-sun?

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:40pm PDT

Cool. It's the same.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:19pm PDT

Is your number still 818-468-1351? I'm getting ready for SDCC and making sure I have everybody's updated contact info!

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 26, 2015 at 6:54pm PDT

Nice!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 4:28pm PDT

just got my confirmation email. staying at the Doubletree Downtown San Diego.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

I got my request in by 9:03 that morning. I hope that was early enough! Haha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

I didn't have any problems with their system, but other than the general "we got your request" confirmation, I haven't heard anything yet. I heard some people had a lot of problems with their form! But it worked perfectly for me.

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 26, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Did you survive the hotel pick?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 9:36pm PDT

I'm gonna pass. But I bet it's pretty fucking awesome! Thanks for letting me know :D

Katie L HendersonMonday, March 23, 2015 at 8:59pm PDT

I was offered a vacation home/condo in SD. Location is 15min away (mission beach), so rental car/park n ride or uber will be required. 200 a night, pay only for the nights you stay. I already have one person in, he's only staying 2-3 days. Let me know tonight or tomorrow.

Katie L HendersonMonday, March 23, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

i'll keep you updated on how it goes. i'm gong for a thurs-sun reservation for a room with 2 beds.

Katie L HendersonMonday, March 23, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Lol. Alright then.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

Alright, damn it!!!!! I'm gonna do the hotel lottery tomorrow. The early bird ones are okay but for like a fucking $1000 it doesn't make sense to me to just get some room because I can get it even though I don't actually want to stay there.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

Anyway, I'm gonna sleep on this and let you know my decision in the morning. Toodles!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 23, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

Lottery's not guaranteed as I understand it. But if I'm on there with all of my info ready exactly at 9am on Tues, I think I'll be good to go.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

Yeah, Thurs to Mon works too, I think. But I agree that Weds would definitely easier for car pooling!

Katie L HendersonSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:35pm PDT

The lottery isn't a guaranteed room tho, as I understand it. Wonder if it can be reserved Thursday to Monday? It meets the requirement to be there Fri and Sat., but it could be easier to carpool in on Weds.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:30pm PDT

My only hesitation at the moment is the four nights... just not sure I need to be there on Weds. So the one advantage to the hotel lottery is getting a three night reservation instead.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

As for the other stuff, cool all around. I wasn't planning on driving. Maybe take the train or catch a ride with someone else. I'd like breakfast and wifi too, though it seems like most of them are one or the other on that.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:28pm PDT

Yeah, good point on the price.

Katie L HendersonSunday, March 22, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

Ok. Probably more like 200+ with taxes, etc. The 4 nights isn't a problem for me. As for perks, wifi would be nice, I'm probably going to eat most of my meals out, and I'll be keeping late hours, but having breakfast option is ok. Unless you are bringing a car any parking discount isn't a deal-breaker.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 22, 2015 at 5:43pm PDT

so all of the available hotels through the early bird sale are in Mission Valley and they all require a four night stay. the prices are in $170-190 per night range.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 20, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

yeah that's kinda my beef with air bnb though im not at all experienced with the service so its not like i have any of my own experiences as evidence, just concerns

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 19, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

Alright. I was also thinking about checking airBnB since the hotels are a bit pricey, but that could be sketchy

Nick MarinoThursday, March 19, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

honestly, the plan is out the window at this point. i'd have to check again to see which hotel looks the best. i mean, none of them are a great value, but they're a guaranteed spot, ya know? i'll look again over the weekend and shoot you a line with my thoughts.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 10:15pm PDT

Any particular hotel? Are you still planning to stay Thursday-Sun?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 18, 2015 at 9:10pm PDT

any new SDCC stuff going on with you? i'm still thinking about maybe doing this early bird sale before its over on march 24th... which is when i think the hotel lottery will go live.

Katie L HendersonFriday, July 25, 2014 at 2:38pm PDT

It's crazy fun. No problem about the changes

Nick MarinoFriday, July 25, 2014 at 12:25pm PDT

PLAN CHANGE! Justique and I got to talking and she decided she wants to come after all. So we got a hotel room. Sorry for the last minute change on ya but thanks a bunch for being cool enough to include me! I hope the con is going great for you so far.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 23, 2014 at 12:06pm PDT

nah, for a new series called Holy F*ck.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, July 23, 2014 at 11:41am PDT

Nice. Is this for the super hater collection?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 23, 2014 at 11:07am PDT

What's your panel?

818-468-1351

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 23, 2014 at 6:36am PDT

here's my schedule: leave early saturday morning, at my publisher's booth from 2-5 and then at their panel from 6-7. then i'm back at their booth from 11-1 on sunday. i have no idea where i'm parking yet but hopefully somewhere that i can leave the car overnight! my digits are 484-798-7753. yours?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 20, 2014 at 10:26am PDT

cool, all sounds good. i can do clean and quiet. and i like that MLP comics are an acceptable currency for this transaction haha

Katie L HendersonSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 11:22pm PDT

I'm awaiting final instruction and logistics. I paid for my stay with MLP comics last year.

Katie L HendersonSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 11:18pm PDT

No. I let the owner of the place know I might have a guest. We just gotta be clean and quiet since the place is kind of upscale.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 9:47pm PDT

coooooooooooooooool. do i have to fill out an application? or give a blood sample? i'm prepared for anything. comic-con is intense.

Katie L HendersonSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 9:17pm PDT

I do

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 6:05pm PDT

FINALLY got things settled with my publisher and I'll be at the show on both Sat and Sun. So I'm looking for a place to crash on Saturday night if you've still got one!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 16, 2014 at 9:34pm PDT

Cool! Thanks. I'll let you know what ends up happening.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, July 16, 2014 at 9:05pm PDT

Ok. As for lodging it looks like you can probably crash with me. I'm staying a couple blocks from the convention

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 16, 2014 at 8:49pm PDT

I dunno! My publisher is taking forever to get back to me! Most likely Sunday, though.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, July 16, 2014 at 2:39pm PDT

so you're leaving Saturday or Sunday?

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:52pm PDT

K

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:52pm PDT

the train is too crazy to do in one day. but if i can find a place to crash, it's an option. i'd probably rent a car before i'd take the train, though.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:51pm PDT

yeah, i can catch a bus out to anaheim and i'd be right next to the 5.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:50pm PDT

Have you checked out the train?

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:49pm PDT

Do you think you can get near the 5? That's the route My friends are going.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:49pm PDT

i'm down with whatever. i appreciate your help! my alternative is to rent a car and drive down saturday morning and back on sat night. which is fine, but kinda crazy

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:45pm PDT

I'm staying in a condo of a friend of friend's cousin... So I'd have to get the ok

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:44pm PDT

You'd be rooming with someone else, as far as I know that's ok. Worse to worse, I can probably get you the couch at my place.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:39pm PDT

cool, thanks.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:39pm PDT

That could work, I'll tell her

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:38pm PDT

I'm waiting to hear from Lorraine about the ride

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:38pm PDT

i could meet them up somewhere on the way past my neck of the woods.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:38pm PDT

friday night could work well for me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:35pm PDT

nah, just me. i only got one press pass! haha

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:16pm PDT

I'll ask. They're leaving from Burbank

Katie L HendersonTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 3:15pm PDT

I know someone going down Friday night... You and justique?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

i'm not gonna do all four days. just Saturday and Sunday, if you know anyone else that's doing that.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

BUT ...

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

i can't type

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:57pm PDT

damn it

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:56pm PDT

but i

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 8, 2014 at 2:56pm PDT

hey i might be interested in grabbing a ride or staying with someone for SDCC. but i

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 7:10pm PDT

k cool

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 6:19pm PDT

I'll be walking around

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 5:19pm PDT

Yeah, for real! Are you at a booth or walking around the show?

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 3:58pm PDT

We'll have to meet up then... It's been too long.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 1:21pm PDT

probably just on saturday. at least, that's my plan right now.

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 12:31pm PDT

U?

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 12:29pm PDT

Yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 28, 2014 at 10:20am PDT

you going to SDCC this year?

Katie L HendersonTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 1:03pm PST

Oh shit!! Lol!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 11:55am PST

i saw this on tumblr. it's yooooou!!! haha http://gingernerd1025.tumblr.com/post/68830120700/who-wants-to-start-a-turtle-voice-actor-blog-group

Katie L HendersonThursday, October 3, 2013 at 12:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 12:26pm PDT

I don't know any of those!!! I need to do my homework.

Katie L HendersonThursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:33am PDT

Lol. Exactly. Weird cult followings like Stick Death, it's martial arts cousin - Xiao Xiao, All Your Base, those weird cartoons with phonetic japanese to english translations, Joe Cartoon, Group X etc.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:50am PDT

Damn, that's a really good idea!!!! I used to sit in front of the computer for hours waiting for John K's The Goddamn George Liquor Program to load in Flash. And, of course, it never loaded right and I could only watch the first 30 seconds before it died and then I had to refresh it and hope it would load again.

Katie L HendersonThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:53am PDT

Cool. And I think at some point, and maybe the podcast would be a good outlet, the topic of 'classic internet cartoons' ought be tackled. I find myself using the phrase frequently, when talking about flash cartoons from the late 90's and early 2000's. They looked awful, were usually pretty violent or raunchy, but I feel like they were sort of influential, or are good experimental works for the new medium. Maybe I'm just overly sentimental. Just a week or so ago, I referred to the Terrible Secret of Space in a project meeting, as a visual style reference. Jib Jab, is a slightly more reputable example... used to be only someone with a really good computer and internet could view those shorts, now they're accessible to everyone.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 7:42am PDT

i'd love to have you as a guest! that's okay if you haven't been watching korra. Nickelodeon typically runs a small chunk of episodes at a time, breaks for a month or two, and then runs the rest of the season. so there should be plenty of opportunities for you to join us in the near future.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, October 2, 2013 at 9:53pm PDT

I dig the new podcast. I'd like to be a guest at some point, but I haven't followed Korra at all.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 21, 2013 at 8:01am PDT

cooooooooooool!

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 20, 2013 at 11:32pm PDT

Nothing off the top of my head, aside from Dr sketchy is a couple weeks from now at Titmouse.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 20, 2013 at 8:53pm PDT

i'm leaning towards no on both events right now, but if something changes, i'll let you know!! anything going on over the next month or so?

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 20, 2013 at 7:48pm PDT

I know the feeling.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 20, 2013 at 5:54pm PDT

that sounds like fun! i really want to start doing that kinda stuff. i barely leave long beach, let alone my apartment. MUST... HAVE... SOCIAL... INTERACTION!

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 20, 2013 at 5:09pm PDT

CBS is just a cook-out/ comic swap. Like a big take a penny, leave a penny dish. Mostly DC since a lot of people that go have worked there. Sometimes they have it at Titmouse studio in Hollywood. It's the last or second to last Sunday every month.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 20, 2013 at 3:59pm PDT

What's Comic Book Sunday???? This next week kinda blows for me because Justique's mom is in town so we're doing family stuff. I wish all of this was going down on a different weekend!!!!

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 20, 2013 at 3:39pm PDT

Oh I don't know, I was looking for an excuse to go, lol. Comic book Sunday is also this weekend, in Studio City.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 20, 2013 at 3:21pm PDT

wasn't planning on it... but should i be? is it gonna be sweet?

Katie L HendersonThursday, June 20, 2013 at 11:58am PDT

Are you going to be at the opening night for that comic exhibit in downtown la?

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 28, 2013 at 3:07pm PDT

I don't know, probably not. It's too far for me.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 28, 2013 at 3:00pm PDT

Are you going to Wondercon this weekend?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 10, 2013 at 12:50pm PST

Yeah, it's not bad. Buses are decent.

Katie L HendersonWednesday, January 9, 2013 at 5:34pm PST

I'm good. Has it been easy to get around?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 9, 2013 at 4:26pm PST

I ended up in Long Beach!! How you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 4:42pm PST

Gooood advice!! :)

Katie L HendersonWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 2:11pm PST

Anything to the west ofhollywood is expensive. I know nothing else about long beach or elsewhere.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 10:00am PST

Soooooooooo I said earlier that I was eyeing up North Hollywood. But it's so fucking expensive and the apartments rent so fast that I can barely find anything in the 2 mile radius that I was looking at. So now I'm expanding my search. What LA neighborhoods would you recommend? Also, what do you think of Long Beach?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 26, 2012 at 5:41am PST

YEAH FUCK PITTSBURGH BUSES!!! Such a goddamn ripoff.

Katie L HendersonSaturday, November 24, 2012 at 7:42pm PST

I've only taken buses, but that's all that's available around here. Burbank too, I think. NoHo is a happening place as far as I've been told so I'm not surprised it has a lot of transit. The best part is how cheap it is to get around compared to Pittsburgh.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 24, 2012 at 12:44pm PST

Yeah, I figured the Metro was only so-so. You ever take the buses? The area I'm targeting also have five or six bus routes running through it.

Katie L HendersonFriday, November 23, 2012 at 8:08pm PST

It is less, but I seriously live in a tiny place, less than 150 sq ft. The 1bed/bath for rent in our building now is 1200, but it's really big. I wasn't able to do a lot of real apartment shopping until I got out here, and even then I almost never got far enough to actually looking at a place. I just kinda dumbed into this one at the zero hour. I did a lot of walking and biking before I got the scooter. Most places are pretty well connected though. Access to the train only gets you so far.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 23, 2012 at 1:09pm PST

That's probably a little bit less than what I'm seeing for rent in North Hollywood. Most places are $750-900 for studios and one bedrooms (at least near the Metro where I want to be... I'm not bringing a car).

Katie L HendersonThursday, November 22, 2012 at 11:08am PST

I'm pretty excited by 4, really. I took my pages to an animation industry convention last weekend and a lot of people got a kick out of them. I'm in the northern part of Glendale. It's pretty nice, but I've been told it's kinda pricey compared to some places. I live in a small room and pay 650/mo. but that includes all utilities and a pool.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 21, 2012 at 5:11pm PST

Hey we sold 4 eBooks so far!! I know that sounds absurdly low, but it's better than any other eBooks I've ever released. :D Soooooooooooooooooooo anyway what part of LA are you in?

Katie L HendersonThursday, November 15, 2012 at 9:42pm PST

Sweet on all counts. :)

Nick MarinoThursday, November 15, 2012 at 7:08pm PST

I'm gonna officially announce it tomorrow, but I thought you should know first: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A801D30 Stick Cats for the Kindle! If we ever make any money, I'll let you know ;D Also, I'm planning to move to North Hollywood sometime in December. I'll let you know when I get there!!

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 9:05pm PST

Cool. And totally, if you remember see if your friend has any info.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 5, 2012 at 8:18pm PST

that's a good bit right there!!!

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 8:13pm PST

I never really followed, but it seem most of them are a few years old when they were still in NY.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 5, 2012 at 8:08pm PST

very cool! my bud in the LA area works for LA Graphico, which does most of the promo materials for the major movie studios. i have no idea if that connection could help, but i'll mention you to him the next time we talk. i'm not familiar with the new Coco stuff, so recliner of rage is not in my knowledge banks :(

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 8:06pm PST

I'm also getting in good with some people at Titmouse, one guy's gonna sneak out some work tests they give to new hires for me to practice with.

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 8:01pm PST

Hah, yeah. I also met the graphic designer for Conan O'Brien there, who's a huge comic nerd. He also does this "recliner of rage" segment, if you ever watch Coco. Still at McDonalds, though I'm looking to get back into art modeling.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 5, 2012 at 7:55pm PST

very cool!!!! you'll have to come back to the podcast in the spring and report on your progress :) hopefully i'll be out to LA before or around then, so if you get any down time from working for free, we should hang out! well, i assume the internship is for free.

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 7:53pm PST

Shortly after the podcast. That weekend I went to a 3-day animation industry convention. In Oct, I was told to look up this Dahveed guy by a girl I met at another animation gathering. I had shot him an email and didn't hear back. BUT! While I was hanging around the Disney recruiting table, I saw him standing in line with a Smorgasbord hat on, so I asked about it. The day I was to interview, he was like "I need to present an animatic to this group and I don't have anything done - cut this audio!" Soi... yeah. I'm working on a PSA for a charity now. True story.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 5, 2012 at 7:42pm PST

awesome!!!! that's super cool. when did you start?

Katie L HendersonThursday, January 5, 2012 at 7:35pm PST

Well, I'm interning! It's with a small indie studio, it's run out of this guy's apartment, but he's got lots of connections and some decent credits.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 5, 2012 at 6:35pm PST

hey what's new? :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 6:46am PST

hahahaha you got it!!!

Katie L HendersonWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 6:11am PST

can't wait to listen to the whole podcast. Also, be aware this may attract my online stalker. Feel free to clean up and block any cryptic weird anti-katie diatribes that may pop up.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:43pm PST

hrm, alright. I'm guessing you've already covered re-uping old entertainment properties?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:41pm PST

actually, scratch that. those were mostly dan's suggestions, so we shouldn't use those without him! it's totally fair game. the only thing that would be a no-go is a topic we've already covered.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:40pm PST

nothing selected. i'll email you our suggestion list from last time.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:40pm PST

Ok, cool. any idea what we're doing?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:39pm PST

if you're down for 5:00 your time, that'd be awesome!!! it'll be me, you, and shawn.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:38pm PST

I can be ready in 30 minutes or an hour, it's 4:30 now

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:37pm PST

yeah, Skype. my handle is nickmarino82 ... so are you think 5:30 your time???

Katie L HendersonTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:08pm PST

What do you use, skype?

Katie L HendersonTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 4:07pm PST

Yeah, sorry. I had mandatory overtime at work. I'll be here and ready in an hour if you want.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 12:26pm PST

Any idea if you're gonna join us? Just wanna check so we can get stuff locked down soon.

Katie L HendersonMonday, November 14, 2011 at 3:51pm PST

Erm, I might have to be later than 5PST, a bunch of interviews and preexisting work overtime came up. I'll try to let you know as it all develops.

Katie L HendersonMonday, November 14, 2011 at 10:28am PST

Haha, sure. The time sounds fine.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 14, 2011 at 8:14am PST

hey speaking of podcasting, do you have any interest in recording the next Sequential Underground episode with us? we record tomorrow at 5 PM your time. (we're flexible within that... we could start a little bit later, but probably no later than 6:30 your time). we haven't picked a topic yet, but we'd all work together to find something comics / art related that we want to discuss.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 1:51pm PDT

Well, what I learned from all my research is that copyright is essentially irrelevant nowadays unless you're a profitable business and/or concerned that someone is doing the same exact thing that you're doing. As for trademark, I'd say it's only worth registering something if you think that you stand to make money off of the specific application of a phrase or image (because you can just registered a phrase, or you can register a phrase/image of said phrase). But it's expensive and takes a lot of paperwork and you have to prove that your trademark is already in the marketplace or going to be in the marketplace soon. For me, for example, I would maybe want to consider trademarking Super Haters once I have a profitable merch/book business. But up until that point, I don't personally think it's worth it to go thru the hassle.

Katie L HendersonMonday, June 27, 2011 at 11:39am PDT

Still no headway on this Bad Kitty matter. But, since you say you're well versed in what and when to register, in light of this issue perhaps I ought to look into some real legal protection myself, especially my site name/potential freelance company and whatnot. Thoughts?

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:13pm PDT

Anyway, I gotta get going. My battery is getting low and the wifi at Whole Foods sucks right now. Thanks, man

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:09pm PDT

At least they aren't irked about the design itself, just the text... that would suck so much ass!

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:08pm PDT

I already challenged Zazzle to provide information that this company is challenging other designs, otherwise it a matter of being singled out and whatnot, but haven't heard back (though it is the weekend)

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:07pm PDT

yeah i totally understand. like i said, i'm no trademark expert, so i could be wrong, but i'm pretty sure it's all about who has the active rights, and that's that. i guess there's the off chance that you could email the company with the trademark and try to get a response from them, like "hey i've been selling this way before you had your trademark, so i'd appreciate it if you'd back off." like try to scare them maybe. haha or maybe that's a horrible idea.

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:05pm PDT

Not really, I suppose. Not like I'm taking revenue from them, but not exactly retiring on it myself. But it is my most popular design, I'm just kinda attached.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:03pm PDT

hahaha anyway... i guess your best shot is to email them and show them that you've had the image sine 04 and that it's been on cafe press since 06. do you make enough money off of that image for it even to be an issue?

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:02pm PDT

I was afraid of that. It's on deviant art, and it started on Cafepress back in 2006. I really can't afford a lawyer for this sort of thing, obvi

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:02pm PDT

because you sent me the DA link. DUH!!!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:02pm PDT

i am a dumbass.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:01pm PDT

hmmmmm that's a toughy and a bit out of my wheelhouse since it deals so much with the specifics. my expertise is more in registering and what does/does not need to be registered (cause i did all the research to figure it out for myself). what i do know is that if this was a copyright issue, you'd be 100% correct. but because it's trademark issue, i think you might actually be screwed. i could be wrong about this... but i'm pretty sure that trademark, like patent, is more about who registered it rather than when it was registered and how long it's been in use. i think that the big thing that falls on you is burden of proof. do you have this design posted anywhere like deviantart or facebook, somewhere where it logs a date when you uploaded it? to me, that seems like it would be your only saving grace in this situation. otherwise, i guess you'd need to get a lawyer, right?

Katie L HendersonSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:54pm PDT

here's the skinny: Zazzle has removed one of my designs (https://jspengs.deviantart.com/art/Bad-Kitty-11665793) because some stripper supply company says it infringes on their intellectual property (the name of the company). They left up the stuff with just the graphic, but anything with the text is gone. I researched and they have held this trademark since 2008-2009, whereas I have been selling this design on products since 2006, however only for about a year or so on Zazzle. But my feeling, which could be wrong, says that since I have had this image, with the text, published to the web really since 2004, that copyright should protect the entire piece as a whole. Not to mention that trademark and copyright are two slightly different things. I'm not selling similar products with this design or text, I'm more or less selling the design and text itself.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:52pm PDT

yo so what's up?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 13, 2011 at 2:52pm PDT

Just sent you a massive list of story ideas! Hopefully you'll see something on there that you like. If not, never fear!!! I have more. I'd estimate I have at least another five or six stories that I could've put on there. But I didn't want to overwhelm you with too much :)

Katie L HendersonThursday, May 12, 2011 at 4:05pm PDT

I'd be willing to draw the Octo for a frame or two, sure. Hm, well, how risqué?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 12, 2011 at 3:57pm PDT

I like flashback or dream sequence. I just introduced Steve's sister, Amazonia, so I was pondering a flashback about how she lost her ear or some other experience from when they were kids. I think the big question is... do you wanna draw the Octo-Kitty or not? Cause if you want Octo-Kitty in there, then we gotta work around that and build it from there, I think. I'll dig thru my stories and get back to you soon! I do have one thing in mind but it's a bit... ummm... risqué. Is that something you're down with or not?

Katie L HendersonThursday, May 12, 2011 at 3:25pm PDT

Yeah, I got the switch last week. That's so weird how the updates filter through FB. I'm pretty sure I was the very last person to get the privacy settings update. I'm sorta leaning toward comedy/parody, but not something too true to life, you know? Also, limited in complex gadgetry. Anything goes for stick cats. I sorta dig the flashback idea, or maybe a dream sequence?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 12, 2011 at 12:56pm PDT

I kinda like the new messages, but I've been using them for months now. Did you just switch over? I hated them at first but I got used to them pretty quick. I have SOOOO much stuff in my archives! And yeah, some of it is far more adaptable into other media than just a standard comic page (which, frankly, I'm sick of anyways). To help me pick the right sort of thing for you, I have a few questions: 1. what's your genre preference? 2. what do you NOT want to draw in terms of objects and settings? and 3. what settings would you like to draw? I have sci-fi, fantasy, fairy tales, horror, comedy, parody, drama, ughhh man the list goes on and on! As for Stick Cats... I'D LOVE THAT!!! Thx for asking :) I'm thinking one of two things off of the top of my head -- I can whip up something special for you, where they have to take some drug or cross into an alternate reality and it changes them... OR it could be a flashback. Or something else entirely! Thoughts?

Katie L HendersonThursday, May 12, 2011 at 11:45am PDT

Gah, I really don't care for this new message system. Anyway, do you think you've got something in the archives that might be more conducive to a different sort of format? Like the smart phone idea or something else. Also, thought I'd toss this out there but at some point I think it'd be funny to be a guest artist for Stick Cats. They'd be drawn anthro or like humans with cat ears. The drama with the total lack of serious action would just seem that much more absurd.

Katie L HendersonThursday, May 12, 2011 at 11:38am PDT

Hey, when you're unemployed, time perception can get pretty skewed; you know how that is.The more I look it over and think about it, the less potential I'm feelin for it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2011 at 8:23am PDT

sent! sorry for the delay. i'm normally really quick with stuff like that. and i'll be better in the future, promised.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 10, 2011 at 6:39pm PDT

craaaapppp! so busy today. okay tomorrow i PROMISE something. in the morning.

Katie L HendersonTuesday, May 10, 2011 at 7:39am PDT

hmm, oh! or the owl feathers one, either is fine.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 10, 2011 at 7:35am PDT

ahhh that one is new to me

Katie L HendersonTuesday, May 10, 2011 at 7:34am PDT

yeah, sandgecko@yahoo.com

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 10, 2011 at 5:02am PDT

I didn't forget!!! I just had a crazy busy weekend with FCBD and a few other things. I'll send you something today. Same ol' email address?

Katie L HendersonWednesday, May 4, 2011 at 1:45pm PDT

Honestly, I'm not sure. Could you toss me a demo of sorts? Something from some part of the story that could conceivably be worked out in 4-5 panels? I'll tinker with it for a bit and we'll go from there.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 4, 2011 at 1:06pm PDT

you're the artist, so i'll let you make the call -- what format do you want to work in? all i need to know is the approx size it would appear in pixels online and how many panels you see fitting comfortably per page. i'm open to anything. and the less conventional, the better in my opinion! as soon as i have an idea of how much can fit per page, i can rework the script into something that flows better. oh and for whatever page size you decide, let me know how many you think you'll be able to complete (only if it's different from the original number you gave me, that is!) :)

Katie L HendersonWednesday, May 4, 2011 at 1:01pm PDT

We could always go the route of that one guy we saw at the Library who does the western...erm Guns of Shadow Valley? The pages read side to side instead of up and down. I do still like the idea of the occasional splash page, though. I'm not so sure about crawling along a panel at a time for a whole story, seems like it might get tedious, or maybe I'm not understanding. If EY became a popular read something like that might work better for situational continuations. At least at first I think the format should provide a decent amount of information and content about the characters and motivations, etc.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 4, 2011 at 5:40am PDT

I say fuck regular comic book format! I'm pretty much done with print now, unless it comes to printing something really small (little mini comics) or something big (graphic novels). I don't think issues are cost effective at all anymore. So in my opinion, I say we should shoot for something that would look badass on a computer screen... OR even a mobile device. Do you have a smart phone? Cause, ya know, one idea for this is that it could be a "mobile" comic as in it's drawn panel-by-panel, and I could set it up on a webpage where it's optimized for phones and stuff like that, and you click thru to each panel. Not saying we have to do that... it's just an idea I had right now. Do you have any ideas for formats you'd like to try?

Katie L HendersonTuesday, May 3, 2011 at 9:40am PDT

Yeah, I'd like to continue inking. This time, since I have a tablet, I can get some practice in, keep it a little neater, and makes it easier to rearrange stuff if need be. Color/etc, also not an issue for me, and for lettering, it's all you. Does that also include speech bubbles? Would we still do this as regular comic book page format or something else maybe? I guess it depends on how many pages we're trying to shoot for. Nothing too epic, but I would be willing to go 18-20 or something like that, if that doesn't hinder the story too much. I really didn't know too much about it aside from the basic premise. I remember something about elephants also, but I don't know how the story concludes. Between other art junk and family obligations, I can try for 2 pages a week, give or take.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2011 at 8:24am PDT

as i'm rereading over the Eternally scripts, i'm wondering... how many pages do you think you have in you? if it's okay with you, i'd like to letter the comic. but beyond that, it's totally up to you as to how much of the art you want to tackle. i can ink, if you just want to pencil. but if i remember from before, you like to do all of the finished line art. as for graytoning or coloring, i'd say that seems like the least important thing at this stage, at least to me. but if you have an opinion on it, let me know! the reason i bring all this up is because i'm looking at the scripts and it looks like the plot is all there, but what needs to be rethought is the flow from page to page. if we can pick a realistic number of pages you'd like to crank out, i can format a script to that amount so that we end up with a somewhat complete story.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2011 at 5:14am PDT

i will. i have a crazy busy day today, but i'll try to squeeze in some Eternally early!

Katie L HendersonMonday, May 2, 2011 at 6:41pm PDT

Yeah, I sorta remember the basic idea, and probably have a synopsis laying around somewhere, but I'm a little more familiar with the characters. As for the 6-7 panel page, which I think included a quarter-page panel... definitely not fun and rather ill-advised. Concise script/layout is very much a comic artist's best friend. Well, check out the script, see what you think.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2011 at 4:49pm PDT

yeah, Eternally def needs a brush up on my end. it's been a couple of years since i've looked at the script. are you saying you did or did not like the 6/7 panel page? i don't quite follow you on that. personally, i never write pages like that anymore. i tend to stick to 3-5. i'm game to dive in. i'm sure that the script could use another rewrite, but i'd imagine the characters will stay the same for the most part. but i sorta forget some of it, honestly!

Katie L HendersonMonday, May 2, 2011 at 4:43pm PDT

Well, I figured since it was sorta worked on already, it could be salvaged. Obviously some tighter pages (for example one has like 6-7 panels to it), would be nice. Maybe a tweak in the format, freshen up the characters, Ida know. If that doesn't seem to work we can always dig into the dusty pile of ideas.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2011 at 4:34pm PDT

haha "I'd love to this work on" what does that even mean? I meant... I'd love to work on. haha

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2011 at 4:33pm PDT

I'd love to this work on Eternally Yours with you!!! Glad you asked :) As for other stories sitting around gathering dust, OH that's my specialty! So if Eternally isn't inspiring you right now, I'm more than willing to dig into my story ideas and see what else I've got in there.

Katie L HendersonMonday, May 2, 2011 at 4:23pm PDT

I am going kinda stir crazy out here in central PA waiting to move to CA, needing to put a portfolio together etc.. I came across my EY designs and stuff and discovered 2.5 unfinished/forgotten pages, 6 total. I'd probably revamp the ones already drawn, or the whole dang thing could be revamped. Let me know, or if there's something you've got sitting around gathering dust, whatevs, I'm pretty easy.

Katie L HendersonMonday, April 4, 2011 at 11:36am PDT

Don't I know it. :/ At least the feed to my actual site is safe. My Twitter is down-ish too (private). Thanks.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 4, 2011 at 11:27am PDT

done. i hope it helps.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 4, 2011 at 11:22am PDT

i'm so sorry!!! that totally sucks. i'm removing you right now.

Katie L HendersonMonday, April 4, 2011 at 11:02am PDT

my most recent tumblr account name change is youarenotallowedinmyfort. Again, sorry. I wish they had a block feature.

Katie L HendersonMonday, April 4, 2011 at 10:56am PDT

can you please remove me from your tumblr follows? I'm being stalked by my ex and he keeps finding me through your nickmarino and superhaters pages. Sorry, Thanks. :/

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2011 at 12:11pm PDT

no prob. let's just meet up at the library then because Shawn's cat is sick so he's not going to be at Kiva before hand anyway. SEE YA THERE!

Katie L HendersonMonday, March 21, 2011 at 11:56am PDT

I'll try to be there after 4, closer to 5 maybe. At the very latest in time for the thing at the library. Some stuff came up.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2011 at 8:35am PDT

yeah i'm still down for today lemme know what time ur thinking i'll probably head over around 4

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 17, 2011 at 10:19am PDT

'round about Harrisburg. I'm not keen on spending a whole month there, but ticket prices were better at the time and the airport, and it's better than sticking around here. My last day of work is April 13.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:14am PDT

where's home?

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 17, 2011 at 8:44am PDT

Yeah. Leaving PGH at Easter to spend time at home, then leaving for the west in June.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 7:55am PDT

yeah i'd be down for something like. lemme talk to shawn and i'll let you know what works for him. are you still moving out to cali?

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 17, 2011 at 7:14am PDT

Meh, between 4 or 5, Ida know. I'm pretty flexible when I get enough sleep. :)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 6:38am PDT

WE COULD BE! we don't have plans set yet, but we're definitely open to that. what time were you thinking?

Katie L HendersonThursday, March 17, 2011 at 5:15am PDT

You guys chillin before the thing at the library?

My digits: 484-798-7753 My full address: 630 Maryland Ave, Apt 4B Pittsburgh, PA 15232 Call me when you get to my block / building. My building is brown with lots of vines growing on the front. My apt number is 4B, but it's located on the second floor. I don't have a doorbell and it's hard to hear people knocking because the door to my apt is at the end of a long hallway that has another locked door in the front. Here's a breakdown of what's still available: 1 longbox of DC Comics + DC imprints (Vertigo, WildStorm, Milestone) 2 longboxes of X-Men* and related books (solo series, spinoffs, and events) 2 longboxes of Marvel Comics (616, Knights, MAX, and Ultimate; non X-Men, non Spidey) 0.5 longbox of Spidey comics 1.5 longboxes of indie publishers (Dark Horse, Image, Bongo, Speakeasy, more) *Someone did call dibs on X-Men stuff, but it was within the SHOWDOWN timeframe. Plus, this person may not even show up to claim the books... The biggest unclaimed lots are Iron Man and Marvel Comics Presents. I also have bunches of interesting Vertigo, WildStorm, Dark Horse, and other indie miniseries / short full runs still up for grabs (21 Down, Crush, Papa Midnite, Seaguy v1, Vimanarama, tons more I can't even remember now)

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 8:01am PST

as we move into the final week before the grand comics exodus, i am implementing a new rule for any comics which have not had dibs called on them thus far: SHOWDOWN.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 24, 2012 at 8:32pm PDT

Josh Kobylarz. He's the TA for one of the classes you have to take, but I forget which one!! You probably won't recognize him, but he was around during the whole Dirty Weekend Carnival stuff, so you guys have sorta hung out before :D

Karen HoffmannFriday, August 24, 2012 at 7:51pm PDT

yo buddy, who is your cousin the 2L? (see, i already know the jargon... look at me go...)

Karen HoffmannTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 11:02am PDT

ok... keep me posteddd

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 11:00am PDT

i'll be there until the morning of the 12th. not sure what my schedule is like on the 10-11... might not be able to say hi!!!

Karen HoffmannTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 10:51am PDT

naw man, still in FL for another week, then a leisurely drive with all my belongings up the eastern seaboard. i don't get to philly till next fri (aug. 10). will you still be around?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 10:49am PDT

i'm gonna be in the Philly-ish area next week. are you there right now?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 7, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

hehehe PETE IS EVERYWHEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Karen HoffmannWednesday, June 6, 2012 at 7:08pm PDT

awesome, thanks for the cousin intro. i am the same as you when it comes to internet addiction. kinda hoping law school will break me of that habit (because it will just break me, period). dirty weekend came up AGAIN today because i went back to the princeton review to take their SAT test (not a lot of demand for LSAT instructors i guess) and it was that same lady who knows pete. or should i say, henry. hooray for DW revival 2k12!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 10:45am PDT

i think CMU sucked for the most part. i tried to relive the nostalgia for a little bit and it didn't work out. i love telling Pittsburgh people i went there because they're like "ooooo!" and then i say, "it fucking sucked." and they get this perplexed look on their faces. yeah, i'll introduce the two of you!!! he lives way outside the city, though, halfway to Lancaster. but he's got a bunch of friends from his classes, so it'll definitely be a good way to meet people. thx for saying about the creative stuff... honestly, i think it sounds a lot cooler than it really is. most of the time, i just sit around my apartment feeding my internet addiction and actual work only happens when i need a break from facebook or comic book websites.

Karen HoffmannSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:35am PDT

small freaking world. it's temple law for me too. maybe you can introduce me to your cousin, it would be nice to know somebody :) you are an inspiration with all your endeavors!! it's great to see someone be so prodigiously creative.. yea i'm not looking forward to being back in the cold. also i am now suffering from CMU nostalgia, so THANKS A LOT! :P probably though, that was like the only fun weekend in four years there... ok kidding... kinda...

Nick MarinoThursday, May 17, 2012 at 7:00am PDT

i've been meaning to put the DW vids up online after i figured out how to rip DVDs, but i was slacking on it until your post, which was great motivation! which philly university? my cousin is about to enter his second year of law school at temple. me, i'm busy making comics, writing stuff, podcasting. probably moving to the west coast at the end of the year. sick of the cold. for now, at least.

Karen HoffmannWednesday, May 16, 2012 at 2:40pm PDT

that is AMAZING. you're right...you couldn't make this stuff up. if i see that lady again i'll tell her she sparked a DW internet resurgence, haha. i'm not in miami per se, but rather the whitebread boring suburbs to the north, staying with my parents. moving up to philly (99% sure) in the fall to go to law school. i dunno man... but it will be good to be back in a real city, at least. how's about you?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 14, 2012 at 9:37pm PDT

hahaha that's classic. i'll have to tell Pete. or as he goes by now, Henry Clover (i'm serious... i couldn't make this stuff up). Pete was going to UoM for poetry and he ended up running a Miami poetry festival, so i assume he knows just about every poet in Miami. for the record, it was Thailand, not Tibet. and he left after a few months because he got a terrible tonsil infection from a botched chicken slaughtering job when he was working on a farm commune in Maine, where he met his new wife. (again, i can't make this stuff up... it's true). otherwise, how's Miami?

Karen HoffmannMonday, May 14, 2012 at 9:32pm PDT

yeah, it was nuts! this was just for a standardized test instructor job... but the interviewer was a poet who knew pete borrebach. and i was like "that name sounds familiar... i think he was in a band called dirty weekend?" hahah. she said he's living on a mountain in tibet or something? anyway when i found that article i had to share it. hope you are doing well!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, January 9, 2008 at 4:26pm PST

never stop http://nickmarino.net/nikfurious.html there will be 6 new full band Dirty Weekend recordings (featuring 2 new songs) debuting very shortly. they just need to be mixed and mastered.

4801798@facebook.comMonday, January 7, 2008 at 1:45pm PST

you still playing music?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, December 27, 2007 at 7:18am PST

ooo yeah living in the desert would be sweet

4801798@facebook.comWednesday, December 19, 2007 at 7:41am PST

ah man, where to start? i haven't been writing as much as i've been plotting my escape from this job. i think i'm giving notice in january and then taking a train across the country to live like a hippie in the desert, at least for a little while. maybe that'll give me something to write about. nickmarino.net 4-eva!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, December 13, 2007 at 7:27pm PST

yeah i still live in pittsburgh. what's unique about the program at cmu?

44202186@facebook.comSunday, December 18, 2005 at 9:24pm PST

Well I actually do not know anyone even remotely near the area, that is why I am nervous. The specific grad program I am interested in is not offered in many areas, so this is just one of several far away places I can go to be lonely lol. I really appreciate you giving me that information though because I do not know anyone at any of the other schools to ask. Are you still there? I may not even apply, I still have quite a bit of research to do, but it has not been enirely ruled out. Well thanks so much for the info, ill let u know if I apply!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, December 18, 2005 at 8:36pm PST

what up lori. thats not weird to ask at all. i think you would enjoy it at CMU, but it is a real strange place filled with some wildly dorky people. the psyche department is prob the most normal of all departments at the school, no joke. do you have people in pittsburgh right now? i think that would make all the difference because the school itself has a bizarre culture (the school is practically its own psyche experiment, hah). why cmu?

44202186@facebook.comSunday, December 18, 2005 at 7:38pm PST

Hey Nick, Hope its not weird to ask you this, but I was just wondering if you liked Carnegie Mellon. I was considering applying to grad school in Psychology there- i just thought it would be cool to hear what you thought.

I will be conducting 2 tours soon for SPF, the Small Press Festival. (One tour of Pittsburgh libraries and one tour of Pittsburgh bookstores.) Right now I am putting together "swag bags" for each tour. If small presses or authors have anything they would like to donate to my swag bags, please message me here on Facebook or at my email: eyescorpion@gmail.com There will be 60 people *total* on 2 tours (30 people each tour). Autumn House Press has generously donated books, so that each tour participant gets one book. But you could donate postcards, brochures, discount coupons, fliers, bookmarks, whatever. The library tour is a week from today and the bookstore tour is 2 weeks from today. See SPF Calendar for links and more details: http://www.spfpittsburgh.com/calendar Many thanks, Karen Lillis

Hey Gang - Just so you know, we're still on for tonight, and the info is still the same as listed on the event page. In short: Dinner & Drinks @ Roland's in the Strip (on Penn Avenue) starting at 6:30PM. Say you're with Marcel's party; we'll be upstairs. (And we're doing separate checks, to make things easy!) WHO'S BAD @ Altar Bar in the Strip (on Penn Avenue), show starts at 9:30PM, doors open at 8:30PM. Tickets @ the door are $17 -- Ask for "Uncle F*cker" (I'm not kidding!) and say you're with Marcel's Party. He'll get you in! Any questions? 412.983.WALK If I don't answer, I'll holla back. No gifts -- just bring YOU and a mood to make friends, chill and laugh! If you can't make it, no worries...but then you DO owe me a gift! ;^) See ya' there! - Marcel (Event Planner Extraordinaire!)

609323093@facebook.comSunday, September 19, 2010 at 11:24pm PDT

All - Just a few quick things to mention to make everything go smoothly for you, if you're coming out on Saturday: *I've pushed the arrival time for dinner at Roland's back to 6:30-6:45PM, since the show at Altar Bar is starting later than it was originally listed. *If you can, please let me know if you're coming to Roland's for dinner, so I can pass this along to the staff ahead of time. *The WHO'S BAD show at Altar Bar is scheduled to start at 9:30PM. The doors open at 8:30PM. *I recommend getting tickets directly from Altar Bar, as that'll be much cheaper. Call ahead to see when their box-office is open, if you want to get tickets before Saturday. I'm looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible -- and if you can't make it, send some love and well wishes. (And gifts. I do accept gifts from those in absentia! ;^D) Contact me with any questions...one more reminder Friday, then it's time to dance! - Marcel

Hey Gang - Because I know it's easy to overlook these events, I just wanted to make you aware of the upcoming get-together for my birthday. This will be in just over two weeks (my actual B-Day is the 22nd, but the event is Saturday the 25th, which should be easier for most folks), and everyone has options! Come out for dinner, or come out for the show afterwards (go to the event for details), or come out for BOTH. It'll be a great time, regardless! If you're coming for dinner, please let me know that specifically, so I can give the staff at Roland's a heads-up. Lastly, I already know there are those of you who can't make it -- but I like sending out Honorary Invitations, so you all know you're considered there in spirit! Alright Gang -- keep on with the Force and don't stop! - Marcel

Today is our big blow-out party for Wayne, so get ready to come, eat (a lot!), drink (in moderation!), and be VERY MERRY! 8^D This will be an ALL-AGES EVENT, so please keep that in mind gang. Most of us will be adults who are young-at-heart, but we will actually have some young-in-body people there too. Don't worry -- this will be fun for EVERYONE! ***WAYNE...if you're reading this, I have to make you stop here. I know this is getting tedious. Trust me, it'll all be over soon!*** Arrival time is between 5:45PM - 6:15PM. The plan is to have Wayne show up at 6:30PM, and we'll sing HAPPY BIRTHDAY right then! And if you can't make it 'till later, no worries. Just get there whenever you can. The party will be going for quite some time! Any questions? Call me! 412.983.9255 It's Wayne's big day. Let's make it count for 50 more years! - Marcel

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, June 24, 2011 at 2:32pm PDT

Just a reminder that the party is tomorrow, and neither motorcades nor furries will keep us from our appointed rounds...that is to say, come ready to have a good time and show some love! Got questions? Go to the Event Page for times & the address. Still got questions? Call my cell: 412.983.9255 Or call us at the house: 412-251-5074 Or email me: MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com Okay, I hope to see a bunch of you there.

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, June 19, 2011 at 2:34pm PDT

All - It's now less than a week away -- Wayne's big birthday blowout is NEXT SATURDAY! You HAVE made plans to attend, haven't you? Excuse me just one moment now, please... ***WAYNE!!!*** If you're reading this, I need you to delete this message and back away from the computer slowly. There's nothing to see here. Please keep moving along. Thatta boy! We'll talk later. 8^) (Is he gone yet?) (Really?) ...okay, as I was saying, here's some last-minute info for all of you: - The arrival time has been moved up slightly to 5:45PM-6:15PM. The guest of honor should be brought over at 6:30PM, and we're gonna start singing when he gets in the door! - If you're not aware, following the party, The Bessemers will be playing a set at HAMBONES. Party guests are invited to stay and continue the revelry, if time permits! There will be no cover charge if you stay. - Please do NOT bring food, but feel free to order from the menu (which has some vegetarian options). Snacks, appetizers and cupcakes will be provided! And for those of us drinking - responsibly! - there is a cash bar. Keep the staff busy! 8^D (Wayne BETTER not be reading this!) - No gifts are required. Wanna get him one anyway? Send me a message and we'll talk. ;^) Alright. We good? Reach out if you need more info. I'll be in touch with some of you this week. Next Saturday, the Party rolls through Pittsburgh! - Marcel

Greetings! Today and tomorrow, we're tirelessly preparing the house for some cold war festivities--and some great items are popping up on the menu. Yinz are bringing DEVILED EGGS, COCKTAIL WEENIES, CHAMPAGNE, WINE, VODKA, HARD CIDER and more!!! (Perhaps even borscht!) Have you posted what you're bringing? Do so asap so we can better shop to fill in the gaps! Hooray!!! Cool costume ideas are also pouring in: I hear tell that Ivan Drago (of Rocky IV fame) and Fidel Castro (of cigar fame) will be there! Also an East German Olympic skier! Who will you be? Can't wait to find out! Adam

Adam AtkinsonMonday, December 27, 2010 at 3:37pm PST

Hooray, we're having a FOURTH New Year's Eve party in Pittsburgh! No doubt you are torn between this engagement and that. We know the feeling! Let us help convince that our place is worth the investment. We've got: - music - dancing - themed decorations - lots of people in costumes - lots of food and booze - a three-year track record of slammin New Year's Eve shindigs - at least one person dressed as Stalin Wow! Once you come to your senses and rsvp in the affirmative, check out the list of items on the menu and see if there's a hole you can fill! (Believe us, the party will be worth the price of a bottle of champagne or a cheese ball.) Better dead than red! Adam

Please let me know if you can make it. I will need to get some information from you to turn in to the volunteer coordinator on Wednesday, July 20.

Come join the fun this Thursday, May 5th, at 7PM when Cattivo hosts LAWRENCEVILLAINS, an art celebration of a vibrant community! LAWRENCEVILLAINS will feature artwork related to (you guessed it!) Lawrenceville. Some will have been created by residents; some will feature Larryville as the subject (in some way, shape or form), while some will be both. Come see what the art community has to say and display about this neighborhood! Visit the event page for a list of participants, and feel free to invite others and spread the word. Hope to see you there!

Hi guys and gals! Just wanted to let you know that Egypt Park is booked for Saturday June 5th for a class reunion. Please check the wall of the group for more details and post any other suggestions you may have. Hope to see as many of you as possible!!! Blessings, Kate :)

680942042@facebook.comWednesday, February 17, 2010 at 7:38pm PST

Some of you mentioned in your responses that you would be willing to help organize/help with the reunion. If you are still interested, please email me through Facebook or respond to my post on the Class page. More specifically, I need someone who can reserve Fellows Road Park on the Classes behalf who lives in Fairport since I am out of town. Thank you!

680942042@facebook.comFriday, January 22, 2010 at 7:41pm PST

Stephanie posted a venue update for the reunion we would like everyone's opinions on!

680942042@facebook.comMonday, January 4, 2010 at 8:54am PST

Since everyone has an opinion on the reunion and to make it more uniform as to what the majority wants, please complete the 2-question survey I just added to the discussion page for the Class. I'll check the results in a week and copy them onto facebook, so everyone is on the same page. This way, we know what the majority wants and a date/location can be confirmed.

680942042@facebook.comWednesday, December 30, 2009 at 2:05pm PST

Please check out the reunion date information on the discussion board, so we can get everyone's opinions. Thanks!

Please encourage everyone you know to stop in at a Bruegger's with a flier. Also, I'm looking for help handing out fliers. If you have any time tomorrow please message me back. We are not permitted to stand right in front of the door but I think we can still get close to all of them and make a difference. Thanks to all for your support! I'm hoping for a big year!

508322096@facebook.comTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 6:37am PST

Be sure to get your fliers printed and ready. If you need fliers please let me know and I can meet you somewhere to give you some. Friday is also Light Up Night, so encourage your 'burbanite-friends to bring their flier in and stop at the Market Square Bruegger's for a coffee, hot chocolate or delicious brownie. Your nickle + my nickle + his nickle + her nickle + their nickle = A LOT of nickles!!!!

508322096@facebook.comThursday, November 11, 2010 at 7:44am PST

Please message me if you: * Need a pdf of the flier. Please forward me an email I can send it to. * Need physical fliers. We can meet up sometime and I can give you stash to take to work, play, whereever! * Have time on Friday, November 19 to hand out fliers either Downtown or on Southside. We can't stand in front of a Brueggers but we can stand NEAR one! Thanks to all for their love and support!

Tasted some clouds on the way down. Saw a circular rainbow. Contemplating moving to New Zealand. WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!^c^ Pics and video to come...

Hey All! Just a quick message to those of you planning to make it out to PIX sometime today. The show is taking place on the top (sixth?) floor) of the Guardian Storage Building between 28th and 29th Streets in the Strip District. The two things to be most prepared for are: The Weather: this floor has NO HEATING OR COOLING (which hopefully won't deter a hearty bunch like yourselves!), so dress appropriately. You may want to bring a fleece, hoodie or sweater, just in case. The Elevator: There is ONE elevator to get to the top floor, and of course the stairs. I don't expect this to be a huge problem, but allow some wait time to use the elevator. Cool? COOL! See you there! - Marcel

Invitees - Those of us planning to set up at The Pittsburgh Independent Comics Expo the Weekend of Oct. 16th-17th look forward to seeing lots of you. However, there's something that EVERYONE invited - whether attending or not - can do for PIX that would be vastly appreciated: Invite 10 facebook friends! And don't hold back -- invite ALL KINDS of people! Invite people who like comics (we all know someone who does!), people who want to do something different on a weekend, people who love the arts and want to experience some of Pittsburgh's creative energy...in short, invite EVERYONE! There will be lots to see, and lots of great artists on hand, including Jim Rugg (AFRODISIAC, STREET ANGEL), Ed Piskor (WIZZYWIG, MACEDONIA)...and a little something debuting from M.L.Walker called HERO CORP. INTERNATIONAL! 8^D Again, please invite 10 people to come get PIX-ilated -- and we hope to see you there! - Marcel

Hey All! Now that we've got that pesky Independence Day business out of the way, it's time for a REAL celebration: our OPEN HOUSE & HOUSEWARMING PARTY this weekend! The address is 4105 Saint Johns Way in Lawrenceville (15201). The Open House (kids welcome, just don't touch the action-figures!) starts Saturday the 10th at 3PM and will continue 'til 8PM, at which point it will segue into the party. That will go on until someone has the distinction of being the first person tossed from the house! (Probably Jami...kidding!) We'll have some drinks and light munchies. Feel free to bring some, but mostly, bring YOU. Really...we love ya'. But don't touch the action figures. (GRRRRR!) See you Saturday!

Last night was a very special event that surpassed those before it. I'm humbled by the LUV and support from those who attended and those who couldn't. Next year will prove to be bigger and better. Please "Like" the Jami Luvfest page to keep up with future events. Again, thanks to all for making Luvfest a great event.

508322096@facebook.comWednesday, December 1, 2010 at 12:56pm PST

As I spend the next two days rushing around to get this show on the road Friday, I will be thinking about the following: 1) what old friends will surprise me by attending? Who will shock the socks off me? 2) what new friends will I meet? Who will I be delighted to get to know better? 3) will everyone be entertained enough to want to come back next year? 4) will a lot of families be able to create great memories by way of the memories we create Friday? I can only guarantee number 4. Hope you can stop by to help get 1-3 fulfilled.

508322096@facebook.comWednesday, November 24, 2010 at 4:52am PST

I hope everyone enjoys their time spent with loved ones as families and friends gather around a table and give thanks for each other. Food is such a keystone for holidays. It is the centerpiece of so many memories in the making. Help other families make great memories by attending Jami Luvfest. For every $1 we give to the Food Bank, they can buy $5 worth of food. That's a lot of memories for families. I thank God every day for the family I was born into and the memories I have of past holidays. And I thank God for extended family and friends like you. Happy Thanksgiving.

Okay - here's the skinny! Participants will NOT have to pay to get in. You CAN bring munchies and pop, though Joe said the fridge should be stocked and, of course, we'll be allowed to order in pizza, go out for gyros, etc. There IS Wi-FI - I will have the access codes on Saturday morning so bring your laptops!. There is a DVD/CD player if anyone wants to bring movies or music - we have been asked to keep the music appropriate. The museum closes at 5. We are asked to please clean up our waste and watch out for late-nighters - not to let them in. All looks good - see you all on Saturday morning! I should be there around 9 am. Pat

Reasons you should vote for Michael Pisano's design today: - It's the last day to do so. - You're not a bad person. - The design deserves to win. - Michael deserves to win. - It's free. - It's quick. - You're not a bad person. SO MANY REASONS! Thanks again to the many of you who've voted and voiced your support! There are a lot of haters on threadless who vote with low numbers to hurt their competitors, so you've helped Michael silence their bad vibes. Thanks! Adam

I'm picking up our U-Haul truck at 9 AM so we're moving the start time of this whole thing to 10 AM. We're thinking of sending some of you to the new place and some to the old place, so stay tuned to assignments. The truck needs to be back by 3, but we should be able to do everything in one trip. (a lot of our smaller stuff has already been moved... Thanks Traci! Thanks Liz!).

Hello Again All! First, a big THANK YOU to those of you who've taken time to assist Wayne and me in getting some of our belongings over to the new place in Lawrenceville so far. It's been a big help! We're still planning on May 29th being our final big moving day, when we'll take the rest of our belongings. This will include some of our big ticket items (beds & tables, etc.). If you've responded you'll be there -- we look forward to seeing you! A few people haven't replied but mentioned they'll likely be available. If so, let me know here so I can keep an accurate head-count. Regardless, I'll keep everyone posted on where to be at what time/s on the 29th. If you can't make it, no worries. Some of you are/were actually Honorary Invitees for the food and fellowship afterward. 8^) And if you can spare time in the two weeks before then, we'd appreciate it. We're still taking stuff over. We want the last day to go as fast as possible so we can get to the food. Two weeks and counting gang. We're excited! Did I mention there'll be food...? - Marcel

Hey All - Just a reminder that our Comic-Book Read-In is today at 3:30 at Crazy Mocha (4032 Butler Street, Lawrenceville). It's two-hours long so the first hour can just be folks arriving, getting food/beverages, mingling...then the second hour, we can get to reading our comics! By all means, feel free to stay as long as you want...far be it from me to limit your comics-input time! But for one hour, we will rule one corner of the multiverse. See you all there! - Marcel

Guess what gang? We got some official press! http://readcomicsinpublic.com/ We're listed as "Meetup #9" beneath a cool photo of Andy Warhol. So now that the word (or in this case, illustration) is out, help us keep letting folks know! Next Saturday, we're gonna get together and read some comics. Go to the page and check out the details. The event is two hours long, so folks can get together and mingle for the first hour, then read for the second...or as long as they want to. (I'm not stopping you!) Can't wait to see you all there!

Ladies and gentlemen……………. First of all I must apologize for the long lull. Due to real-life commitments and massive changes I wanted to make to my webcomics and sites, my webcomic ‘Seven Years in Dog-Land’ stalled for almost a year. But finally, it’s back!! And this time, I’m hosting it in my own domain! So check it out and please leave your comments! Previously I stopped at Year 3; I will upload Year 4 onwards at the end of this month. http://dog-land.johnnytay.net That’s not the only thing that is new. In 2003 I published a children’s fantasy series ‘Anima: Age of the Robots’. 18 chapters of full colour action, animals VS robots! It looks quite dated now, but it’s all compiled and organized neatly in my new site for easy reading. http://anima.johnnytay.net And then, I also have a portal. This is assembled from my various blogs through the years. It’s a mishmash of various topics: the comic industry, social commentary, philosophy, and anything in between. Now here's a place you can discuss comic writing too... http://johnnytay.net

Dear friends, I'm pleased to announce that my highly-anticipated webcomic, Seven Years in Dog-Land, has relaunched. It's ahead of my planned mid-Feb relaunch date. http://www.webcomicsnation.com/john_avatar/dog-land When Dog-Land was on the Smackjeeves webcomic network, it scored an average of 5/5 stars for all entries. Here's a synopsis: "When Alice runs away from home to look for her lost dog, little she knows that she may never return. She stumbles upon the kingdom of Dog-Land, an alternate world where dogs are the masters, and humans, their pets. Under the crimson sky of this misshapen realm, the sprightly ten-year-old begins her true journey – of discovering what it truly means to be human – as she seeks a way back to our world. Seven Years in Dog-Land is a literary fantasy set in a gritty and cruel kingdom of dogs. It is an exploration of humans’ relationship nature and the human condition itself." I will upload one new page per weekday. Happy reading! http://www.webcomicsnation.com/john_avatar/dog-land Warmest regards, John Avatar

On the other hand, I have embarked on a few projects that you might wanna track. My webcomic, which I will devote a lot of energy to. http://www.webcomicsnation.com/john_avatar/dog-land/series.php My blog, which I intend to use for musings about the comic art, experiences in the industry, and comic writing. (plus lots of misc stuff) http://johnavatar.wordpress.com/ Fan page for my upcoming work, Dog-Land http://www.facebook.com/pages/Seven-Years-in-Dog-Land/202604872985 Have a nice day :)

Dear all, Firstly I must apologize for being almost absent all the time in this 'guild'. I've been busy making my webcomic, Seven Years in Dog-Land, and grappling with real life problems like losing my income. Sad to say, I cannot be actively involved still, because I'd like to focus on developing and releasing my webcomic online. As such, I always welcome passionate folks to be admins of this 'guild'. As long as you want to explore the art of storytelling in comics, and want to use this group as your vehicle, drop me an email. Yours, John Avatar

|||||||| WHAT’S DOWN AT DA GUILD #1 |||||||| Welcome to the all-new World Comic Writers’ Guild! We’re just getting started, and how well this turns out depends entirely on you. I’ll send this newsletter once a month to keep everyone posted on happenings. I. MANIFESTO As you might have noticed, this group had adopted the “free for all” posting policy for videos, links, pictures and everything else, you anyone can help make the guild great. So what we’re hoping to do here are: - Explore the finer points of storytelling in comics - Discuss the bestselling comics in history and what makes them great - Get the basics of good comic stories right - Share your comics, links etc for review by other members - Share any cool features, exhibitions and insights related to comics and comic storytelling II. THE DISCUSSION BOARDS http://www.new.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1498062670&ref=name#/board.php?uid=26686268214 Introduce yourself>>> What walks of life and worldviews do comic writers come from? Introduce yourself in this thread and let others know…. Your favourite graphic novel>>> Since this is a group that promotes excellence in storytelling, i thought we can start by listing which existing comics are great to you…. What’s with furry comics>>> Talking animals have always been part of our folklore, but this role hasn't really been transferred in comics - especially American comics. If you try to make a serious comic with talking animals (and i tried), publishers will automatically want to market it to children…. More on: http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=26686268214

We are sorry for confusion yesterday. We were trying to lock in a group rate with a travel agent. Travel Agents suck so we are going with our original plan. In the upcoming couple of weeks we will need a deposit for the actual Party Bus! From Rochester to NYC not the FULL TRIP Amount. In the First week of January we need Hotel Deposits. Please not we don't expect the full amount until January. You can still save a seat and room at this point.

100001411428334@facebook.comTuesday, December 7, 2010 at 11:47am PST

We need RSVP with names and contact info. We do need deposits soon but we can make accommodations for people who are short on money right. To do so you need to contact Karen thank you for your time and Consideration the Whores

And please confirm ASAP. We need to get everyone confirmed to make this happen this week. Thanks, Karen, Liz and Becky Karen's phone for any questions and to arrange payment - 585-317-2842

Hey party people!!! Last year, we had bounteous food and drink! Quite a spread, indeed. Why? Because nearly everyone who attended brought either a dish or some booze (or a mixer). And it was amazing. Brie! Pie! Ceviche! Champagne! Fondu! If you feel like contributing, post your food/drink to the wall, and I'll add it to the tally. I know I'll be making a big pot of my holiday wassail with brandy. Sarah Smith has already volunteered Oysters Rockefeller (oh yeah, bacon and oysters, all in one) and Stuffed Mushrooms, as well as bourbon and vermouth. She's set the bar pretty high, no? Even if you're just bringing a bottle of champagne, let us know on the wall! You will be celebrated by one and all! Best, Adam

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

I'm glad you dig her work!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

TOLD HER! She's thinks that's awesome. She's just as open to something of hers that she's already written as well as doing something new. She says ideally it would be a really collaborative scenario, so if you have any ideas you'd like to share she's open to talking about them and possibly writing one of them.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

so if she ever has something thats on the short side tell her it could be a comic :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

ye that was implied. But it was super good

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

OHHHHH the font! I just meant the word "DONG" hahahahaha! Yeah her writing is amazing. And the one she sent you isn't really even edited.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

ye all her stories excited me and now I know the writing is good aswell!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

a blambot font

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Yeah, her stories would be rockin' comics!!!! I'd love to see that happen :D

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

What's OneTwoPunch?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

I'm still kinda into the idea of turning one of Justiques stories into a comic

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

the one in panel 4 is based on OneTwoPunch

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

HAHAHAHA AWESOME PAGE!!!!!!! Amazing sound effect in panel 4. Brilliant. I love it.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

so i guess i'm just hoping that these stories i really really really want to tell will fit well into a business model that i don't care that much about anymore.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

the singles were fun for Holy F*ck but now I'm over it

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i buy digital, if nothing at all. i'm making a product for a market that i barely even participate in anymore.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

I know I'm not

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

and i had this realization that i'm not the average consumer anymore. i don't buy singles or variants or many books.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i guess i've kinda become numb to the singles stuff, though. i see how they're really important to other people.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

me too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

I just prefer GraphicNovels

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

...but that's also the entire problem with the business. It turns our stories into these collectible, variant, bullshit things.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

Thing is, your average issue of a comic book sells way higher than most books. Novels, GNs, TPBs, etc. Singles, I guess because of the collectors market, are printed in way higher volume...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

ye but then I don't care :P

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Yeah, digital singles are so much easier but maybe even more pointless to me...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

I'm cool with digital singles?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

mja teh singles thing is still weird but whatever

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

As a creator, though, I feel like it's so silly. We made this damn story for you to be one big thing. Why do you just want to read a tiny slice of it? ARE YOU STUPID?!?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

as for the sophisticated thing. I'm not sure what I consider sophisticated... but I think I'll know when I see it?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

I think from a reading stand point, it's fairly futile. But from a sales stand point, I understand 100%. Comic shops just don't have a big market for GNs the way they do for singles. And people get so excited about single issues!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

I'd rather not self publish either but I just don't quite see the point in single issues

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

At the same time, I think most companies prefer single issues as a part of their marketing plan because the singles still drive the comic shop market.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

I'm down for bypassing single issues... especially if we ever self-publish. (Though I have an incredibly low interest in self-publishing right, just to be totally honest with you.)

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

For you, what would be more sophisticated?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

Awesome! I think it's great that your brain is already churning on that stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

guess I'm allready thinking about how we could push ourselves further after cougar and cub

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

I guess a 3rd one would be: how can we sell more not less

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

I kinda got 2 main things on my mind. 1. I want to maybe do something a bit more.... sophisticated? also on the artside. 2.how could we get around single issues

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

cool, i'd love to know more about what ideas you have in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

I'm just thinking of ways to possibly shaking it up

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

I'm not saying we SHOULD do a kickstarter

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

do you have an example of the kind of Kickstarter campaign that you might have in mind?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

not sure i follow you

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

I'm just thinking in general

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

it depends on the project

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

nothing in particular I guess

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

but at the same time as

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Well, not necessarily before, I mean

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

What do you see as the benefits of possibly doing a Kickstarter before working with ALE again?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

LOOKIN GOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

el pagerino

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 9:22pm PDT

dunno guess I'm thinking of different approaches in case we ever do another thing with them again

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

what got your curious about it in the first place?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

welll it looks like shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

Jamal recently did one for Molly Danger v2 and it didn't make the goal. He redid it with a lower goal and better tiers and it made it. This one flopped hard: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/564695363/the-road-to-harlequin-island-misbegotten-vol-1

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

If I had to guess, I think the way it works is that you offer people an exclusive version of the book through Kickstarter AND you offer them lots of other perks.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

but not all of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

i mean, i understand some of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

i'm generally confused about it too

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

I'm super confused about it every time I see it and I wonder if I asked you about it before

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

did I ever ask you about how it works when some people kickstart their book that they put out trough actionlab?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

the cougar and the car in panel 2 are literally a copy paste

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

The Car is so goofy looking and I can't get enough of it! I love Roach's expression and the way way Cougar points just like she did on Page 2. Everything works for me here :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

I think it's great!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 29, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

the final panel might need some more SFX or actionlines

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

coooooooooooool night night

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

I'm gonna go to bed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

ye it doen't matter really

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

for a negligible difference

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

i was gonna make all of the lettering rich black but honestly it's too much fucking work

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

okay cool!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

i'm putting together the comixology files for HF'd.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

can't wait to see it!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I work tomorrow so I'll probably just do one page

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

no problem I hope I will too

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

thanks for asking!!!!! i hope you dig it as much as i do.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

it'll be relatively short

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

she has something in mind already :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

it's VERY good!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

and it sounded good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

you just sold her work so much that I want to read some

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

i think she'll be flattered that you even asked :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

but the novels are fucking so good!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

her short work is older and she prefers to not share it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

most of her stuff is in progress, like novels and such

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

i dunno how many short stories she has that she'd want to share nowadays

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

okay, i'll see what i can do....

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

you gotta get Justique to send me one of her shorter stories

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

ONTO BIGGER AND BETTER AND DUMBER STORIES!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

hehehe agreed. :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

us*

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

it's not the funnest way to know the end is nigh but it's cool to put it behind up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

in a way yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

it's kind of a relief to be able to totally move on

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

YEAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

oh well it happens no biggie now we know we don't have to put any brain space towards HF3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

but i'm going to pretend that it does

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i dunno if that applies to comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i've always heard sophomore releases are hardest for bands

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

with that said,

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

this is normal numbers for them

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

NOOOOO

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

it's probably still not the lowest selling ActionLab book

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

hehehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

the good news is that our numbers are too low to ever make it onto a sale chart so it'll just be our dirty little secret

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

hehehehe for "Book nobody read"

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

now we HAVE to get nominated for some awards or something right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

I DUNNO!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

shrug

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

hopefully the trade will do better this time?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

oh well

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

it's basically like retailers are ordering Holy F*ck #5

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I KNOW

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

oh wow

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

1300 so far. Jason expects us to pick up about 20% from there... so maybe 1600-1700 once all is said and done?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

mh?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

our numbers suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

BAD NEWS

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

hahahaha yeah it does look way more similar!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

the comparison isn't 100% fair but still

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

in some cases 10 year old Daniel's work looks more like 22 year old Daniel's work then 18 year old Daniel's work does.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

the lack of noses is real old school daniel

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

I like how the KISS in the background is so much grosser than before. It sells the weirdness of their hookup. Awesome choice. Also, them not having noses under the masks makes their faces so fucking cool. Another amazing choice. I'm loving these pages!!!!!!!!! So fucking great. THANK YOU

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 5:14am PDT

this means I'm done inking the first half of #1

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 5:13am PDT

annnnddddd thats todays work

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 1:56am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 28, 2015 at 12:56am PDT

WAAAAAAAY BETTER!!! So much more effective. It's the little things... the angles, the motion, the SFX, the expressions.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

is it better? or just different?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:24pm PDT

I'm happy you likes it

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

GREAT STUFFFF!!!! Fucking love this. It's so cool to see you redo these pages with Cougar and Cub, but also see how much they've improved. It's amazing stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

wow I did 3 pages today

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

yep.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

especially the nude part

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

you never know what monsters live up there. it's better to climb blindly and freely and nude.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

ye I just don't want to look up to the mountain

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

honestly, i like to write most of it without you seeing it while it's in progress anyway, so that works for me.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

cool about the script

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

oh ye these are way better

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Definitely taking it to the next level compared to the Wonderkat pages.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

thank you man!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

OH WOW this page is so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

I like the script but I don't want to read any more untill I'm further along with #1 :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

I'mma work on dis page

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

I also mixed up Cougar and Cub. Dunno how I did that.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

hahaha so i wrote the first couple of pages of #2 late on Sat night and i'm rereading it and i don't remember writing the second page at all!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

oh yeah that makes it tough

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

the problem is that I almost never go without a publisher

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

yeah like whenever you have a con to go to

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

yes buttttt then I have to sell it somehow

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

you definitely should make it a minicomic

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

worst

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

do your wost

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

OH YES

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

no worries

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

sigh sorry internet died

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

but jerry garacia is also not a thing here

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

it should be everywhere

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

insane

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

so it's not an option

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

they don't have it here

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

OMG

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

how do you not have Cherry Garcia?!?!??!?!??!?!?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

NICE! grey spots rule. but uhhhh not for good reasons i guess :(

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

I think one of my grey spots has gotten bigger over the last couple of days

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

don't have that one here

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

i was REALLY into Cherry Garcia for years, though.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

s'okay, i guess.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

half baked i've only had as fro yo.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

http://www.benjerry.com/whats-new/top-ten-flavors-2014

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

i think it's a big deal here too, though i dunno what THE most popular flavor is.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

here atleast

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

it's the most popular flavor

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

which is fine, i guess. but definitely one of the more boring flavors, IMO

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

only cookie dough?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

STILL

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

oh right so it's basically a convenience store

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

to be fair the supermarket is so small it looks more like a gasstation

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

that's like a fucking crime

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

WHAT\

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

they only have cookie dough at this super market

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

frosty!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

brb

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

but she's also got friends and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

she works allot more

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

yeah, i can imagine. is Amanda's schedule way different than yours?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

nope I think thats partially why my mood is so fucked I'm bored

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

damn, so not much, huh?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

I worked 3 times I had dinner with people 2 times and I ordered books

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

yeah, i know... what other stuff have you been up to in sweden?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

hard to say I've been in a weird mood

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

is it fun?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

i dig it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

My approach is a bit more like Holy F*ck then Holy F*cked but 2 years later and in a different style

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

I also think it works

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

i feel like it works, though. the detail really pops to me.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

yeah i guess it's a totally different experience for you, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

HAHAHA oh shit i totally forgot i said soemthing like that

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

but they wouldn't have that!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i dunno... i'm imagining like a danger room scenario

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

my thought is it would basically be the same dialogue

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

tell me more

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

I dunno... just trying to keep things exciting!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

Maybe instead of at the front door, the Minerva / Billy stuff could be in the gym?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

The only thing I wonder is if we could maybe use some more action at the end...

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

TERRIFIC!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome job with consistent flow of conversation and keeping the character positions clear and everything.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 25, 2015 at 5:44am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 24, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Another amazing page. Loving it.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 24, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

I also love the design a lot... it's awesome because it looks like her mask but it totally makes sense because it doesn't look anything like a cat or a cougar so it's not like it could be the catmobile or cougarmobile.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

I love the spotlights shining on The Car!!!! SO FUNNY!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 24, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

Did a bunch of hunting and I think I figured out the guy's agent

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

The foreshortening on Cougar's fist in that panel is just fucking perfect. I love the exaggeration.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

I'll just remove the whole text from the wall and we can put it in later

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

you're taking it to a whole other level with that!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

HOLY SHIT YES

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Also, if possible, I'd love to be able to have that wall text on another layer just so we can compare versions with and without after colors and lettering

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

whoops

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

But the text on the wall... any no CA for CAT TAILS?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 3:18pm PDT

PERFECT ALL AROUND!!!!!!! I love the tweak to the roach's first appearance. That's such a fucking great angle. And you absolutely killed it on the layouts for the bedroom pages!!! The comedy is gonna be super strong on those pages.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

I don't know I thin it might be good to establish that she is watching.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

i almost feel like this panel of the roach seeing them leap off of the building is so fucking good that maybe we don't even need the one of her right when they kiss?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yah me likey much here

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

And I knew the driving scene would be tricky... I think you came up with some fantastic angles for it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Lots of great exaggeration to the action.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I really like 'em

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 22, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:51pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:50pm PDT

yeah. we're definitely in no hurry. still, i'm fine with working fast if that's the way you want to do it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:49pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

i prefer the sequence where Herc kidnaps Jesus but i'm fine with using the earlier stuff since you're not crazy about the colors on the shirt tear

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

that's why I like it but I understand

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

i'm hesitant to go with 5-9 since not much happens and that same panel gets used a few times

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

okelydokely :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

i'll go with 1-5 then

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

okay I don't quite like my collors on the shirt ripping panel

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

orr what you said 13-16 mhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

05-09 wouldn't suck either

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

the into pages would be fine

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

What do you think?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

maybe starting with the page where Herc tears off his shirt and grabs Jesus. and ending with the page where Maria says "I don't know and I don't want to find out."

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

but i also think a later sequence could work well...

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

the first five pages could work

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

but then i realized the whole fucking issue is super spoilery!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

as for Holy F*cked, i was planning to post a preview of #2 this morning

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

right motivation in what way?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 5:28am PDT

Now I just need to find thr right motivation :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 5:27am PDT

good stuff good stuff :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

I managed to add a few new pages:

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

Also, I just realized, for your ish #1 opening splash page it should say Cat Hole and not Catcave!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

Does she have her own nifty vehicle that she rides? Maybe an Akira style motorcycle that looks like a bug?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 21, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

Wanted to bust out a bunch of new pages in the script for you tonight but my head's just not in the game. The biggest thing I'm trying to figure out right now is... how should the Roach tail Cougar and Cub back to the Cat Hole?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Kickass work.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

You absolutely killed it on them. I'm loving it.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Even more amazing than I'd imagined!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

they're fucking fantastic!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

But these thumbs....

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

It came out so fucking good

Nick MarinoMonday, July 20, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

ANOTHER AMAZING PINUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 5:42am PDT

this is probably it for today

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 5:01am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 3:15am PDT

I think my desk here is too low it fucks up my shoulder

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 20, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

k night night

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

OH I GET IT!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

okay I'm off to sleep buh-bye

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

ahhhh Cub's tail is also there

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

i like the chastity belt idea! i think the dangling thing makes it especially creepy and confusing. personally, i think you could scratch whatever that is hanging down from the crotch and it'll be more clear that he's wearing a chastity belt.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:30pm PDT

just needed something kinky looking on his crotch

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:30pm PDT

It's like a castidybelt type thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

I'm not to sure what's going on around the crotch either to be honest

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:16pm PDT

i'm feeling the priest collar / argyle socks / garter / lederhosen combo he has going on.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

but i

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

i'm unclear whats happening on his crotch there

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

i

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

thats incredibly creepy

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

classic

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

hunky

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

heheheehe

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

or maybe a priest outfit but the pants are assless chaps

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

i think a regular priest outfit with a button up crotch flap (for easy access) could be funny

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

any ideas for him so far?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

oh i gotcha, i'm down with that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

to be these pinups are more for us so right now Father Fornicator is the most important one because all the others have a pretty definite design

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

heaven forbid we show someone a fake logo again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

probably

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

but as splash pages

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

you could probably redo those three covers, in fact

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

you could do fake splash pages instead of just pinups

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

well your fake covers for Wonderkat were fucking sick and had tons of personality

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

ye making it more than just a dude striking a pose

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

different poses and stuff?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

but thinking up pinups sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

I still want to do a Father Fornicator pinup

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

yeah no reason to think about it much

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

ye so I'm not worried about it yet

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

i think they only show up once or twice... definitely at the comic con fight scene, and then maybe again in issue 4 or 5.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

i can dig it

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

ye thats what I ment

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

probably some amount of???

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

probably some amount or normface

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

don't know yet

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

ehmmmm

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Would the Normals also have faces / masks like Norm? Or would they just be bland looking people?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

The character design is perfect.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

yeah i'm cool with it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

oh hell yeah I was being kinda serious about the design

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

didn't you want to do a character like that red smiley from Savage Dragon? Norm would be good for that.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

WAIT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

yep, that's it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

i dunno whatever makes him look the most bland and normal

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

hmmmm yeah sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

should norm have glasses?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

pin-up time

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

the variation wouldn't even be a question If I would have been 2 artists

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

i feel like it should be able to have some wiggle room, like Batman's ears or Iron Man's face.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

at the end of the day it's just a detail

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

yeah, it's almost like i want to see both. as if the mask matches her emotions at times. would that be weird?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

the round one is more elegant but the pointier one is more aggressive

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

not sure

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

what about you?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

probably the rounded one more

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

I like both

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

HMMMMMMMM

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

it will be top secret

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 19, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

thats what I'm thinking

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

if you ate now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

US Air sucks in America

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

my family is always talking about "Chickie from 52nd and Walnut" or whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, July 7, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

will I have snacks on my next flight?

If you are on this list, that means you have requested a badge. When you get into San Diego, at some point, give me a call or text at 910-736-1683. If you text, say your name as I probably don't have you in my address book. From there we can pick a time and place to meet so I can give you the badge.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

I got about $130 in cash

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

ye seems most logica, right?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

i'm thinking immediately after we show her in the shadows saying "no fucking way"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

trying to decide if Roach should appear immediately after they kiss or a page or so later.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

i've been working a bit more on the cougar and cub script

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

ye we'll see what happends

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

if nothing else, we can have a little sign up during our signings

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

well maybe we should talk to people at SDCC about it

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

hahahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

I've done a commission all of once

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

hahahaha neither do I

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

there's a reason i never got into the commission and sketch side of things (aside from being a shitty artist)... I DUNNO HOW IT WORKS!

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

i don't think i should be helping you with this! hahahaha!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

do they pay us at the show but then possibly stiff us?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

do we tell people to paypal me the money and then i give it to you?

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

but the more i think about it, the more i realize i don't know what happens next

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

yeah they're both rocking drawings. i love em

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

Not HolyF*ck but it's drawn on paper end I could make it pretty cool in black and white

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

maybe but it's digital

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:12am PDT

maybe the SDCC variant

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

lemme think

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, July 5, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

What can i use for a commission example? Preferably a holy fuck character.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 5:56am PDT

the buying up the exclusives is a bit hard for me to judge

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 5:54am PDT

the commission stuff sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, July 5, 2015 at 5:54am PDT

okay

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 5:40pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 5:05pm PDT

I'll try to make sense of this when I'm sober

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

Had an idea... I'll buy up whatever SDCC exclusives we don't sell. You and I can personally take copies to comic shops in the area. Talk to a few retailers and try to get them to order the series by bribing them with a free gift.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

i dunno what people normally charge!! hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

prices... i was thinking $20 headshot, $30 full body, $10 each additional character

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

do you have a Holy F*ck sketch you want me to use as example?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

hahaha okay i'll post it soon on the FB and tumblrs

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

good plan I like

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

and then even if no one replies, then on tuesday we'll be like "sorry, Daniel's commissions are closed! but let us know if you want to get on his waitlist!!!"

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

we could even do something like "Daniel has a very small amount of space open for SDCC commissions. inbox us to reserve a spot!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

we'll probably talk some tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

dinner time!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

i think we should have a commissions sign out during your signings

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

cewl

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

possibly

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

do you think there is a fair change that people want me to draw them this for moneys?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

but don't sweat it too much because you can always leave some stuff at my apartment if you want

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

I'll try to bring as little as possible

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

at least don't check a bag

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

but otherwise i say don't bring much

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

ye I was planning on that

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

meet

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

you might mean some other Dutch cartoonists

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

maybe a couple zombie hipsters to show people?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

moaky

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

otherwise, i don't think you need anything

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

any pens and paper you like to draw on

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

ughhh

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

should I bring something?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

agreed

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i'm also considering bringing my banner

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

we'll see, i guess

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i dunno if action lab will even put them out without us

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

so they should get us through SDCC

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i still got like 150 of those

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

the ones from Phoenix

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i mean yah

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

yay

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

the small once?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

i have nice flyers to actually give away at the booth

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

that basically say the book's name, some art, and the booth #?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

I will never say no to that

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

maybe we should have some shitty photocopied flyers too?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

I figured you'd like the pun

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

hahahaha great pun

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

ehm ye the sides could say more about the specific story arc....

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

but obviously the sides can be different

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

my first thought was "Jesus, Satan, and a nun with a gun have some fun"

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

what should the text say?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

one on each side also works

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

mhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

I'd say Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

or both? one on each side?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

and wood to keep it up

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

should it say Holy F*ck or Holy F*cked?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

all we need is yellow poster board and some markers

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

also funniest

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

thats probably cheapest

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

i think we should do it by hand

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

yes it should

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

and would be super easy for us to emulate

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

the one in the top picture is the design that everyone knows

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

i think that's probably all they're looking for at SDCC

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

they sorta had me doing that at NYCC, if only to turn away the peeps who really need a lot more work

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

I kinda want to review portfolios just becuase I shouldn't

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

hehe ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

it's pretty fucking nuts

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

I knew there was allot but I keep discovering more

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

I keep descovering more shit around it

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

I keep underestimating SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

hahahaha awesome

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

And the award for best subject line in my inbox today goes to "Sassy Satan cosplays it up on the Holy F*cked #1 SDCC Exclusive." This comic book is debuting at Comic-Con months before it hits stores, and you can pick it up at Action Lab's booth #2006.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

if they sell the whole print run it would earn me about 900 euros

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

it is!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

that's a good size print run!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

do you actually get to pocket some cash from that?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

AWESOME!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

so we sold 15-20 books

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

but people who never said they would come also came

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

anything around 25% is good for the type of thing in my experience

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

seems pretty normal to me

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

fine of the 30 people who said they would come less then 10 did

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

how was everything yesterday?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

ofcourse

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

anyway, so yeah, enough bitching

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

i could be waaaay off on all of thise

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

but i'm just cranky about them

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

but i'll be pretty shocked if it does

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

i hope it works out because Vito and Ray are cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

I don't care to much I just wanna do mah thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

oh well

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

basically

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

why would you try to compete with marvel/DC?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

actionverse not my thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

the fullmoon thing could work

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

i could be wrong

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

again

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

the Actionverse i wouldn't touch with a 10 ft pole

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

it could

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

but i could be wrong

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

i'm dubious about it

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

it might

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

i think they think that the Full Moon thing is gonna take off since Palmiotti and Tim Seeley have books for it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

now I almost want to bring my portfolio to them

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

maybe for Princeless too

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

i think they're recruiting for two things: Full Moon comics and the Actionverse thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

it's gonna be a hot mess

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

i know

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

but seriously who from action lab is going to review people?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

ah ye maybe

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

but maybe at their own booths and stuff?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

well most of the publishers have portfolio reviews

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

and lego

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

there are a couple Actionlab type publishers and animation stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

the best thing is an agency

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

for real? bummer

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

ugh nevermind no one I care about is going to be there

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

who's gonna review?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

geez actionlab has reviews multiple days!?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

it was massive! looked like a lot of waiting, though.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

last year i saw a portfolio review section of the show near the badges

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

hahaha everyone!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

lemme look who's gonna be there

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

we could do everythign there

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

i have a print / office supply place like a 1km away from here

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

ye mhhhh

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

we can always print stuff out here on Wednesday and slap it into a binder

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

yeaaaahhhh good point

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

oh right other companies good

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

or did you mean the action lab stuff?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

becuase I have 2 days to put it together

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

what companies are you thinking?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

well see

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

why not?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

YEAH!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

so we'll see, i guess

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

I am thinking if I should go to portfolio reviews

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

but the SDCC booth is kinda small

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

at NYCC that was easier because the booth was HUGE and i basically ran the Danger Zone on Saturday and Sunday

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

ofcourse!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

i plan to do everything i can to hang at the booth and sell books even if it's not an official signing time

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

but with that said

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

i think so

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

are they?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

so yeah our signing times are shit because they're at the "who gives a fuck" times of the show

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

ye It's like a teambuilding/bonding thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

for you it might be cool since you don't know any of them

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

but im wondering if i should care more

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

the action lab dinner isn't really that important in my mind

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

tough call

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

person i know is more like it

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

well, "friend" is a reach

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

derp I didn't read that part

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

since my friend has her short film screening at the same time

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

i'm kinda on the fence

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

the dinner is really the big thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

I didn't

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

anyway

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

its no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

lemme check

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

oh erm

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

did you actually get that signing schedule email from Kevin when he originally sent it last week?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

like 6 something to get to Mendoza's house

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

that would be rockin

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

YES!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 6:14am PDT

sooooo I know this guy that works at Sideshow Collectibles in LA he said that if we were interested we might be able to visit their offices

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, July 4, 2015 at 2:08am PDT

ofcourse! they atleast need to know we exist

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

i'll be pleasantly surprised if any of them actually run it. but i figured it was worth a shot!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 9:19pm PDT

that email I sent was for a 20 or so comic book news sites

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 6:01pm PDT

but i dunno, maybe it's worth sending it to him

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 6:01pm PDT

aren't very detailed

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 6:00pm PDT

i dunno. it's kind of craptastic and his reviews aren

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 3:54pm PDT

hoe wthe fuck did he get that domain

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 3:54pm PDT

oh wow

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Should I send HF to this reviewer? http://comicbookreviewer.com/

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS it's fucking awesome!!!!!!!!! i love it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

it's what my work should be!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

I like the mix of camp and ultra violence

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

I like it!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 7:25am PDT

did you see the pic Amanda send?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 3, 2015 at 7:25am PDT

cewl I'll try to read it

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

i did a first draft of pages 1-7 of Cougar and Cub #1. it's more viciously satirical the Wonderkat stuff. i hope you dig the sense of humor! but if you don't i'm fine with scrapping it and doing a different kind of opening scene. Pages 1-5 are all new. Pages 6-7 are the slightly tweaked first two pages of our old pitch.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 3, 2015 at 12:56am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

out

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

if nothing else, it;s cool to be able to share them around the time the issues come our

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

and you're right, it really isn't

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

it's no biggie

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

granted, i'm not sure how we'd spin them...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

because we have that unused cover for that issue

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

that;s what i'm kicking myself about

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

nah, too late for #2

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

I guess we could still do variants for 2-4?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

reasoning

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

yeah, good reasoing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

becuase we're not into variants?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

why didn't we do that?!?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

we could've easily used your scrapped covers as variants

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

i feel kinda dumb that i forgot to mention this but...

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

yup, me too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

to bad I was looking forward to higher sales numbers

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

:(

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

guess who hasn't written back to us in a week? the guy who wanted the exclusive cover. i guess that's not happening

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

according to one post in a Facebook group i'm in.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

apparently lots of peeps did multiple pitches and hired letters and all that shit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

a ton times two

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

must be yea

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

i wonder how many pitches they received. must be an insane amount.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 2, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

so i sent Oni my pitch for Hott Meat, dunno if you remember it... a super raunchy rock group has to go on tour with a teen boy band. i wasn't gonna send it to them but yesterday i was like "ehhhh fuck it, maybe i can whip something up in a couple of hours." so i took the plot i had and tweaked things enough to get it into their pitch format. just thought i'd let ya know.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

sounds like the sun

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

i know. it wrote me an email that said "I hate Daniel. Gonna try to kill him later. P.S. I loved Holy F*ck #2."

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

hopefully you'll miss the worst of it while you're over here!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

yeah, 90s are a bit much for me in any climate, dry or wet

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

I prefer the 80's much more comfortable

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

especially once it reachers the mid 90's

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

hard to describe but as air warms up the smell changes

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

smell weird like how????

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

CALI4LYFE

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

WHOA

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

east coast USA, where i lived forever, i should say to be specific

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:53pm PDT

is it humid there? on the east coast, the air feels like a pot of boiling water in the summer sometimes, especially in the 90s

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:53pm PDT

in a day or two it should get up to 98 and that would be the hottest day ever

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

it's super hot

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

i mean, it's hot for here. but normal too.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:50pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

i learned it from some lettering tutorial a long time ago

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

i've found that it helps make the spacing really even

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

try setting your "A\V" thing to "Optical" for logos and lettering

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

Just thought of something...

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 3:10pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

i think it might look even awesomer if CUB is a hair smaller and not touching COUGAR

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

i like where that's going!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

I could never figure out the middle

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

also that PDF should be like 1 mb

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

like it ends 20 pages too soon for me

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

the Typo story is great... ONLY I WANT MORE!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

hahahaha THAT IS WEIRD

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

I make weird stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

maybe something weird I did exporting

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

mhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

I think I might know how but it's silly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

it's just huge

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

why's it so large for only being 15 pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

that seems about right :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

but it'll finish eventually

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

downloading super slowly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

waddabout now?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

http://danielarrudamassa.nl/typo.pdf

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

it just won't finish loading

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

first two pages but nothing else

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

is it slow or nothing at all?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

won't load for me :(

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

http://danielarrudamassa.nl/testone.pdf

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

it's just 12 pages and it's from 2012

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

looks cool!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

i dont think so

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

did I ever send you this comic?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

I'm gonna try to come up with a funny horror comic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

it probably won't work

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i feel like it's tough for this book since there are so few words, but i like the look of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

i like different type faces

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

ragman is super cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

I'm also into the almost overkill of different typefaces

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

I like the ragman logo

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

it's from 2011 when I wanted to make a pretty serious super hero comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

that's pretty serious!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

the most classic logo I've ever made I think

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I just need to get into the right mindset

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

but the BP one too

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

i mean in general

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

you mean for the black panther type logo?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

what part of the design do you struggle with the most?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

haven;t read any

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i love that series too

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

yeah that's a good one

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

I like this kind of oldschool superhero logo but I suck at making it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I just like weird fucked up silly things

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

but their interiors were too plain, especially on the cartoony books

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

it is meh

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

Marvel's covers had amazing art direction back then

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

it's kinda meh to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

probably

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

i think it was on where the interiors sucked

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

i vaguely remember that book

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

looks like something I would have drawn if I would have been alive around that time

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

looks kickass

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

I want to read this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

"SECRETS" on this one looks amazing

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

this has a cool vibe... i think i like the first word slanting

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

hehehe it is very generic

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

yeah, but i LIKE that C on there! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

I can change the C on the costume

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

THAT ROCKS!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

a 2012 handdrawn logo

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

but the logo is a bit sterile

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

i like the C on that because it reminds me of Cougar's costume

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

https://www.facebook.com/216005401754256/photos/a.488860424468751.111744.216005401754256/525774917443968/

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

yeah, i dunno if it works well with anything outside of my own work

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

but it works with your art

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i'm good at hand lettering logos... but in a high school notebook kind of way. not in a polished way.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

it's a whole different thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

i like basically everything you draw

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

not gonna lie... it's incredibly hard for me to believe that it wouldn't be good.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

it usually all looks kinda the same

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

I'm not to great at it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

cool, i'm psyched to see your hand stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

maybe inspired by this:

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I'll try some hand drawn stuff aswell

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

font

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

font or your hand? the Cs and As and Us look exactly the same, but otherwise i can't tell.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

AWESOME!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

something like this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

I'm trying something with rough ish letters

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

and i bet it would translate great to a logo

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

also, i bet basic handrawn bubble letters would look amazing. you have cool SFX

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I can fix that once I have a logo

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

that would be awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

what if the C from Cougar's costume matches the C in the logo?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

I should try to do a horror type comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

that's terrific

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

love this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

he is awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

okay cool!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

I know

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

Todd Klein features a logo a day on his Facebook page

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Todd-Klein-artist/216005401754256?sk=photos_stream&tab=photos_albums

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

not at all

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

But it doesn't remind me of the vibe of our book.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

It's cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

I did a serious one but it kinda sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

lookin at what I can take from the batman 66 logo

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

sweeeeeeeeeeet!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

I'm trying to figure out a logo

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

sure!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

But keeping them in mind might help with getting the old school feel

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

I can worry about the layouts

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

but i also don't want to stiffle you in any way!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

i could actually create a little chart and refer to layouts by number

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

how far would you like me to go with them?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

I WILL!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

i'm on a bit of a roll on the past couple of days after kinda having some writers blocks

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

just keep these layouts in mind

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

you can start whenever you want

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

what would you like me to do? should i start working on Cougar and Cub scripts or would you like me to wait?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

today I had to white the wall

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

that's a lot of stuff!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

online much atleast

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

online*

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

I'm doing a mural and got dinner party and a release party

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

ehmm I might not be only for the next 2days

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

might be away for like a half hour or so

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

okay, i got a phone call in 5 mins

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

gotta cram those fists in wherever we can

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

why not!?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

mhhhhh might work!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

gives us a chance to introduce the villains in action

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

and they have a quick brawl

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

what if that creates a little misunderstanding between the rogues and The Roach

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

The Roach busts into the secret hideout through an air vent

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

my other idea for a #1 fight scene

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

OH

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

cool, i'll add that stuff as notes to the end of the doc

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

all cool with me!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

make it look kinky and shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

#5: SEX! Doctor Feelgood straddling Cougar

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

dramatic tension!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

#4: Cub standing over Minerva's bruised and battered body, swearing revenge

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Minerva pigging out on the couch, watching TV

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

#3: go for the reverse and have it be something super boring so it's funny

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

almost like a mini riot

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

#2: the sidekicks fighting each other in the hallways at school

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

they're in motion and it's got that Silver Age vibe

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

#1: Cougar and Cub all happy sliding down the Cat Tails

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

for example

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

so

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

i think putting something dramatic or action-packed on the first page should do the trick

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

I know, right!?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

good question!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

what can we do to make that splashpage exciting?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

so it feels like an classic comic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

YEAH! let's do that

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

like Cougar and Cub beating up some petty criminal (or not even a criminal)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

I'd like every issue to start with a splashpage

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

okay one thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

always an option

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

we open with a fight scene

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

okay, two ideas that could be pretty fun

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

lemme look at it real quick

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

ehm dunno really

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

is there a way to get some fighting in there?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

it's no biggie tough

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

you're right about #1...

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

sorry, internet crashed!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

if we play those right, they can both be big fight scenes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

mokay you are right :3

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

and then Cougar and Cub fight alongside the cosplayers against Norm's Normals.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

Cub fights the other sidekicks at school

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

i think #2 has bunches of action, though.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

ok then the lack on punches

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

hahaha weelllllll there's LOTS of "action" in #1 ;)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

the lack of action in #1 and 2 is too bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

yeah they're my favorite

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

#4 and 5 are awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

I agree that the pin-ups misportrait maria

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

yeah it was really fun. It's a great comic, I could also easily see it adapted into a fake saturday morning cartoon. or even just a movie. I also really want to read more with them. And surprise surpsie there is a sequal! I was surprised at how non-slutty Maria was. I think all of the pin ups had her so half dressed I just assumed she'd be a huge slut. But from a comedic standpoint it makes way more sense to have her be the grounded one. I loved it.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

hehehe cewl

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

he bought the TPB

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

from the guy who did the Batman pinup in #3

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

I laughed my ass off. I don't think I have ever laughed harder at a comic book than when I saw Satan And Jesus love-kiss each other at the end of issue 1. I was not expecting that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

but goddamn it's a lot of books! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

granted, it's for my conventions coming up in the fall

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

i ordered a buttload of Holy F*cks

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

ye it'll work out

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

i think it's awesome that you picked up on that and mentioned it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

personally, i don't feel concerned because neither of us are looking to see the character exploited and i have total trust in your ability to make the scene work well without looking sleazy.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

I am not saying we should change it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

i understand what you mean.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

now that it's a lady it might feel sexist

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

as where originally the main character was a dude, the nakedness was funny

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

careful like how?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

nudeness

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

k, like what?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

there is some stuff in there that we should be carefull with

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

just read #3

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

okay I'm gonna have dinner!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

Yeah, it's more fun than I remember in some places.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

just read #1 and #2 it's still good!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

I gotta say... the last issue is a lot better than I remember. It's pretty fucking great!!! Going back over everything like this has me super fucking psyched for this story again.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_zyCx-ikFgVBz5aE_N8wk54HaTKUUJFfvIE4nfm5fAo/edit

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

DONE WITH THE OUTLINE!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

and i'm baaaack!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:45am PDT

night night

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

byeeee

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

i'll finish the rest tomorrow morning so you can check it out before you go wrap up your work day tomorrow.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

bedtime! the outline for #1-3 and the first half of #4 have been revised

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

heheheh cewl

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 10:28pm PDT

i love this slang "henchies" that you came up with. it's the perfect word because it de-genders henchmen. i can't stop using it!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 3:18pm PDT

k Jason gave the thumbs up to #3's solicit info and he likes your #4 colors.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

cool :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

BECAUSE YOU DEMANDED IT: a legendary Greek demigod battles a pissed off Argentinian nun! (Okay, maybe you didn't actually demand it...) Maria fights her former lover as the fate of Jesus hangs in the balance. Can she dispatch Herc as easily as his daddy, Zeus? Plus... what surprise does Satan have waiting at the hospital?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

#4:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

yes the revised one is much better

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Hercules is driving a van full of explosives with Jesus tied up in the back. But he's in for a hell of a fight because the New Apostles are out to stop him! Will Cosmic Moses, the Secret Pope, Mother 2resa, and the Holy Spirit halt Herc before he blows Jesus to kingdom come? Plus... can Maria get Satan to the hospital on time?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

revised:

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Hercules has snatched Jesus! He's racing to the nuclear power plant driving a van full of explosives with the messiah tied up in the back. But Herc's in for one hell of a fight because Maria has summoned the church's most bizarre superteam, the New Apostles! Can Cosmic Moses, the Secret Pope, Mother 2resa, and the Holy Spirit stop Hercules before he blows Jesus to kingdom come? Also... can Maria get Satan to the hospital on time?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

too many words but jam packed full of innuendo!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

not totally true... i heard from one who unsubscribed

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

WAIT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

i didn't hear back from any retailers!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i doubt jason or dave will have any issues with it, but they've been kinda picky lately so who knows

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i'm not gonna upload the revised stuff until we hear back from them

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

hopefully it'll grow on you

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

I'm happy you like it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

the scheme is great!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

i think it's amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

but I can't make it suck less and keep it close to the daredevil cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

I'm still not crazy about the colors

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

i think you'd love the outhouse

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

ugh I can't get the colors better

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

the beat and bleeding cool are allright

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

which is sometimes silly, yeah, but also intriguing to me

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

but i do like The Beat and Bleeding Cool and The Outhouse

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

i don't do the CBR or Newsarama or Comics Alliance shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

well i think it depends on what you read

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

it's all a bit silly right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

i find it vaguely entertaining

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

someone compared my work(especially if I also write) to Brandon Graham

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

because you care

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

i dunno why this one was so tricky for me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

coooooooool. i'm gonna finally finish up plot shit now that i feel like i have a better lock on the characters.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

yes I saw!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

not Jews

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

i shared a new doc with you. bios for our Cougar and Cub characters.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

didn't everybody back then?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Jezus might have done gay stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

it's pretty intresting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Jezus so happened to be more theatrical and charismatic than John so people started to follow him

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

John the baptist kinda got him riled up to a point were he believed God's new kingdom was to arrive any moment

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:42am PDT

he paints Jezus almost as a rockstar in a way but also as a man on the run

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

it hard to say

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

that Jezus was not perfect :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

so what did he learn?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

ehmm Paul attempted to strip away all the spin and stort telling to discover who Jezus really was. Not the christian Jezus but the historical Jezus

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

what's the general premise?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

pretty interesting

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

how was it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 30, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

I read Paul Verhoeven's Jezus book

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 29, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

mhhh I think it's a fine idea but lemme thing about the angle.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

i'm thinking maybe we should reach out to some skateboarding magazines / blogs about Holy F*cked. thoughts? if so, what do you think would be a good way to talk about our comic with them?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

hehehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

I have nothing against him

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

people crack on Liefeld but he really is, in many ways, the Kirby of his generation

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 26, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

I might be looking for an idea to kill my own idea :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 26, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 26, 2015 at 2:00am PDT

I like

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

it's a bit heavy-handed at the moment, but if you like where it's going then i'm definitely into pursing this direction with the character

Nick MarinoFriday, June 26, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

i think i nailed down a minerva bio i like: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fecwzt9Pg5Fch6dmdRV9UO--NnuSxJJPrssRuyuPW_E/edit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

okay, that last one was sarcasm

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

wide open, ready for anything that comes your way

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

i appreciate you being open to stuff like this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

hahaha not sarcastic at all!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

is that sarcasm? (it's hard to tell with just text)

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

well thanks for being flexible

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

so much of batman's backstory is about his rich male entitlement

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i guess the thing is that a female batman... while in a perfect world should be exactly the same... it's just not the same.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i'm gonna try something, just a bit of a tweak

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

if you feel it will help you write than by all means

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

i'd love to give her a little bio just for my own satisfaction

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

like, it helps me not only with dialogue but with my personal motivation

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

oh I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

but for me personally, i want to know it!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i don't think we need much for readers or for publishers

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

well if you're good with not much back story and open to most anything, i can work with that.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

I don't care to be honest. How much do we need for the story to work?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

ehm

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

what do you think about her personality and back story?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

but i dunno why exactly... Cougar just feels different to me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

in that version

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i guess Wonderkat was a straight up Batman parody

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i'm having a hard time feeling like Cougar fits neatly into the same mold as the Wonkderkat we had lined up for One Night Stand

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

for this story

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

them being thrown out of eden is the ending

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

ye one issue is no problem but the whole thing would suck

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

depending on the response, we can do this for every issue

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

yay I am perfect

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

your solution is perfect

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

that way, we know who has the whole shebang

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

that's a pretty good idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

ehmm maybe just #1 and say they can ask for the whole thing?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

for retailer email... do you think i should send them a link to the whole mini? i was thinking about it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

ye I think that sounds smart

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

and do the preview next week

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Mendoza said the store is in debt! Maybe the shop owner feels bad and he didn't want to say anything to me.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 8:39pm PDT

Apparently the owner of 1up Collectibles didn't even know about this! I'm confused. I wonder if Bryan knows that 1up was copied on that email he sent...

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

We should have some time to talk about it in San Diego, so hopefully we can resolve it then. Maybe. Or at least get a more detailed explanation.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

I'm not even sure why that would be a thing.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 7:43pm PDT

Bryan says Diamond currently does not allow 1up Collectibles to do any exclusive covers??? HUH???

more direction, if you will

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

fyi imma let you start it because i think you've got more of an idea of what you're looking for

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

oh fuck sure

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

maybe we could start out just by plotting that and seeing how the process goes?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

potentially

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

but to be fair just re-doing the creation story would probably make our point

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

i like that angle

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

we'd probably just read some of the wikipedia entry of a bible book or story and then build that into a an ill informed reboot/retelling

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

like detailed issues

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

It's like Holy F*ck but a retelling of bible stories

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 24, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

i'll start making changes to our existing outline to match our new characters

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

speaking of which... Cougar and Cub! i liked your suggestion of working out the first issue script together and going from there.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

if Oni passes, i feel like we should keep shopping this around

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 2:47pm PDT

submitted. i think it came out pretty fucking great!!! thanks for another awesome collaboration.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

aweome!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

i'll message you when it's been sent

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

k sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

sweet I'm gonna bother my girlfriend!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

but otherwise i think we're golden here

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

so i'm gonna do a detailed reading for typos and grammar

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

you did the heavy lifting so I trust you

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

okay

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

nah I'm good man

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

in terms of sending it off, i can wait until tomorrow if you think we should sleep on it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

but otherwise, it's done

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

so here's the thing... i need to proofread everything

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

"it's tough"

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but maybe it's not tough to explain just with this tiny sample of what we want to do

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

it's fucking perfect for our vision

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

that's a good point

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

I think the tonal shift will be awesome in the overal story but it might not help for the pitch

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

okay, i'll paste it in there to see how everything might look

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

also due to the slight tonal shift

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

thats why I think it's best to just leave the intro out for now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

I agree 100%

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

i'm just of the opinion right now that starting with a character scene instead of an action scene might sell better to them.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

if you think that opening scene should come first in the script sample, i'm open to discussing it.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

but more important to me than anything else, i want you to feel like we're giving them exactly what you want them to see

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

i'm open to that if you think it's the best way to go

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

I think it's to confusing to put it after the switch scene

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

waddabout we just leave the first scene out for now?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

regardless of what we do, i think the switcheroo scene should come first.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I'm waiting for her to want to hang out with me

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

if you're going to hang out soon, we can worry about that tomorrow instead

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

righty-o

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

so either cut out a scene or edit down a page

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

they want a max of 20

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

we have 21 pages

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

the script

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

k so lets wrap this up

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

I'm gonna go hangout with Amanda in a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

agreed

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

great!!! i feel like it wraps everything up nicely. it does what Oni wants without repeating what we said in the cover letter.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

well I likes it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

okay, i think i got it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

hahaha *blush* thanks

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

fuck your pretty good at this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

this si hard

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

any ideas?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

yeah i've been trying to figure out a good way to say that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

or Nostalgia

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

should we try to but the throwback style thing in there aswell?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

I like it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

what do you think of that sentence otherwise?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

use any word you want

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

ye but slice sound like it's just a little thing

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

slice or chunk is fine with me. i just like alliteration (billy bopped bonnie on the butt, etc.) so that's why i went for "satisfying slice"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

i was gonna go with the "who we envision this for" thing

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

i dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

"message"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

what is our meaage?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

i just don't know a good goddamn line to use at the end of this thing!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

ugh

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I also think it's fine to leave it in the cover letter

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

thanks for the heads up

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

i sent one to that retailer this morning

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

yeah that's cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

but i also don't think it's that big of a deal if we leave it where it is

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

and it's like... i know they want it in the synopsis

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

oeh Holy F*ck got a message

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

we also kinda got that in the cover letter tough

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

I know the answer to that!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

in the synopsis, they want how it fits into the marketplace

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

it's broader

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

in the cove rletter, they wanna hear about how it will fit with Oni

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

oh wait... not totally true

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

COVER LETTER: tell us who you are, who your project is for and how it fits at Oni Press. Also feel free to include any previously published comics work or comic-related education. SYNOPSIS: a short summary that contextualizes who your project is for and how it fits into the marketplace.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

the problem is that Oni asks for the same thing twice:

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

also like this one

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

changey change!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

derp now you are changing it allready

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

my only note is that it's mostly motivation not really synopsis

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

I like the final line

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

i likes

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

i just saw your change

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

okay so basically we have two lines to find something that summarizes our story. preferably in an emotional way since we've already done a basica summary of the plot

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

my true calling

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

if this was a feel good dramedy, it would be perfect

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

wow thats lame

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

you don't know who you are until you've been someone else

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

ya almost like a slogan

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

it should ideally be a super short sentence

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

GOOD IDEA!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

ok gotta think of something funny

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

my main complaint is that the last sentence doesn't feel like a good conclusion to me

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

it's all energetic and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

k, the first draft of the synopsis is done. i feel like it might need something else.. but i'm not totally sure what.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

:D

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

gonna work on Brain Bash now

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

mokay this cover looks like crap

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

i dunno who's coloring bachalo's stuff now!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

nah, not investigator... like a paranormal guardian / wizard almost

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

also did he change colorists?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

doctor strange is basically a paranormal investigator, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

I don't like that most marvel stories are so blow out of propotion

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

ye most people love the dude

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

for me the biggest thing that kills it is Jason Aaron, who i have a hard time enjoying after reading Scalped

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

the character is okay. mostly interesting because of what ditko did with him visually back in the day

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

but I'd like to do a version of him :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

I know nothing about doctor strange

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

it's marvel

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

looks nice but meh

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

i really just can't find any interest in it.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

it's bachalo so i really want to care but... http://www.theouthousers.com/index.php/news/132151-aaron-and-bachalo-on-new-doctor-strange-series-after-secret-wars.html

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

so I gave up

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

ye it's like how do you draw a drawing?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

yeah it's like "how do you make it sketchy and still look like a tattoo?"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

okay, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

9-13?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

ye #1 is hard

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

for #2, the first five pages are PERFECT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

in general, this book is fucking hard to preview

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

it's not bad. but it gives away the pregnancy, which we avoided in the solicit!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

page 7 to 10?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

ehm

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 22, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

my guess is that Action Lab will announce the SDCC exclusives tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

i'm gonna reverse that and make it one paragraph of other stuff and the rest of it summary

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

before, it was like a one paragraph summary with other stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

i'll probably make it a more detailed summary of the story

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

now i need to redo the synopsis!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

since it has science too

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

what about Rick and Morty for the comedy one?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

so do I

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

i think DB is good for the action book

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:27pm PDT

ehm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

and one is an action thing?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

what if one of the books is a comedy thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

there might be some Black Metal in there

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

DB cooper and KAIJUMAX ?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

ehmmmm

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

please name books for that sentence!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

"the tone we're aiming for with Brain Bash sits squarely between ONI BOOK 1 and ONI BOOK 2, with a dash of The Auteur thrown in for good measure."

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:22pm PDT

I think we're a little edgier than most of their stuff but we play with a similar core sentiment

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

though

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

i still haven't added a section about the Oni correlation, thought

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

i think this cover letter is almost done

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:09pm PDT

it probably also fits with comics like DB Cooper and Hellbreak

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:07pm PDT

tonally it fits

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:06pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

it could almost be a movie they would watch

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

a bit?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

is it like Rick and Morty at all?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

tehre is a huge market for stuff that reminds people of their youth

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:03pm PDT

ehmm

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:03pm PDT

how does it fit into the marketplace and how does it pair well with Oni?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

ye I saw

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

im workin on the cover letter now

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:56pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:51pm PDT

everything we talked about is in there so I got no complaints

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

I like

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

NOOOOOOOOOOO

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 10:36pm PDT

reading it now

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:43pm PDT

okay, so a few things leapt out at me after reading the guidelines. #1) we need to start with a cover letter. #2) some of the stuff in our synopsis (especially the sales stuff) might be better in the cover letter. in general, they ask for similar stuff in the cover letter and synopsis, so it's a bit confusing. #3) there's a maximum of 20 pages of script, which we're currently exceeding, so we need to cut a scene from the submission.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:32pm PDT

i'm also going to reread Oni's guidelines to make sure we've hit on everything.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:32pm PDT

i think this is pretty much ready to go. i just need to proofread it once more. and, of course, make any changes that you'd like to see.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

what about the Decimator sketch? are we adding that too?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

i added the sketch of Lance and Addison.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

SHOOT ME

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

Lindsay and *Addison* go get ice cream while...

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

I completely understand

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

but explaining it kills the vibe a bit

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

like in the book, the humor makes sense

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

also, it's so silly typing a lot of this stuff out.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

well that and it's a family visit thing at the same time

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

I understand how you feel

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

and i'm like ugggghhhh not again

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i think the Brain Bash stuff is taking me longer because i feel like we've already written this story so many times

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

:D

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

i'm fucking ready

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

i

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

yeah this week is great

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

I'm trying to figure out what personal project I want to be doing, but it's hard

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

the start is heavier on you anyways :P

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

this week is fine

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

sooo we could just get started whenever

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

i like

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

good idea

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

OH

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

So you want to wait until after San Diego to work on that or did you want to get started this week?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

we should probably just write issue 1 and then draw it, or some of it and take it from there

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

thats how serious people take us

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

no one else has said anything to us

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

which would just be fantagraphics, i guess

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

but the rest

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

well probably not NBM

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i'd be stoked to resend that pitch to everyone, even the ones who rejected it! hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

and then the creators don't give up. they fix it up and do it again.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

ofcourse

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

it often begins with rejection

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

if you look at the history of how some of the coolest and weirdest stuff gets made...

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

i mean, maybe this sounds crazy but...

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

i'm down

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

we should just start on that soon

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

i think a retooled pitch with the new characters in there would be kickass

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

so am I

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

personally, i'm excited to push forward with Cougar and Cub

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I have no clue what I want to be doing right now

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I'd say let's wait until SDCC

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

i'm just typing out the outline

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

nothing exciting for you to see

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I like the opportunity TMNT like shuff creates to mix horror and superhero shit

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

hehehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

"they were my pets and now they're superheroes!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

I get that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

i think it's TOO neat

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

but also makes it a little less meaningfull

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

makes it a neat package

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

I kinda like that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

when everyone is related to everyone

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

i hate that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

except for the "everything is connected!" bullshit

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

megan kinda sucked for the role but i liked april

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

ye but it wasn't there as much as I expected

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i thought mikey was the best except for his sexual harassment thing, which got old

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

they could have been anyone

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

but

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

I like the legacy and the story behind it and what people have gotten to do with it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

the turtles kinda suck though

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

yeah its like right down the middle

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I like how family friendly the movie is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

all and all not bad

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

all good questions!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

also if you have this much cgi

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 21, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 21, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 20, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

it's really corny!!! so cliche that it's almost a parody of itself. kinda makes me want to do a monster hero story that's packed full of cliches like that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 20, 2015 at 7:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 20, 2015 at 7:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

oh wait

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

maybe dropbox is switching the color profile or adding new info to it?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

why is that so fucking bright when my shit is normal on my computer?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

so magically jason got back to me... they messed up the price listing on the variant. dunno what'll happen with that. but apparently either 1. dropbox or 2. me is the problem with the super bright cover? check this: https://www.dropbox.com/home/Holy%20F-cked%201%20solicit%20info?preview=holy-f-cked-issue-1-cover-r1.jpg

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:31am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:30am PDT

the image they posted is RGB... but maybe someone used our TIF instead and did a shitty conversion?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:30am PDT

here's what i gave them:

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:29am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:29am PDT

nah, prob not me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:28am PDT

but all i did was convert our regular shit from CMYK to JPG

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:28am PDT

it's no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:28am PDT

I don't know

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:28am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:28am PDT

im the one who preps the images for previews

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:27am PDT

maybe it's me?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:27am PDT

i was looking at it on my phone earlier and didn't notice

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:02am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:01am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 4:00am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

I'd wash my feet in a heartbeat

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

also, i would have no problem telling you to do something about your stinky feet, knowing that you wouldn't piss on me in my sleep

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

one pair isn't that bad

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

I might have stinky feet also

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

random people always have super stinky feet

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

and even though i'd love to have someone giving me money to stay in our room, i also wouldn't mind it if it's just us doing whatever the fuck we want instead of putting up with any other potential bullshit.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

yep.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

and tender

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

i don't want the leftover assholes!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

my guess is that the action labbers didn't want whitley to stay with them so they're telling him there's no more room with them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

otherwise it's to initing to A-holes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

ye that might be best

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

i've been kinda waiting to see if friends of mine end up in that situation

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

my guess is that people will start doing the "does anyone have a room?!?!?" thing soon

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i haven't really extended the offer to anyone

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 17, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

I doubt we'll need any more art changes but just in case we do, I'll need you to email shit to Jason and Dave.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Yep, that's the biggie.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

also the new ending

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

The issue beats are good but the outline needs to be written to fit that new breakdown. Once that's done, we should be totally finished.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

Close to it, but our outline isn't done. We've got the logline, synopsis, script samples, and concept art.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

not that we can't make it tighter or whatever but we got the parts

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

we probably got all the parts we need for the pitch, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:56am PDT

it works :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

played around with warping the logo to fit the bag shape a bit. thoughts?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

i'll try

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

ight, stay dry

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

k gotta shower

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

kkkkkkkkk

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

I'm dropping a psd in the covers>psd folder

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

or Jason might

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

cuz i might have to tweak the text again

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

yah, PSD me bro

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

okay gonna put this on the cover

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

at the end of the day it's quite arbitrary

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

yeah i preferred those logos too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

I liked the SDCC logos better but this is fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

whatcha think?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

it is now green

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

i think the bag looks good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

just wasn't there yet

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

haha nice

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

I was allready thinking about that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

should his badge have green on it instead of yellow?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

pointlessly anal question...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

I can remove it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

but that's about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

i guess the "zombie tramp" part confuses me a bit

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

sure it's fine, i don't really care

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

as for the image

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

ahahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

nice

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

just seeing if i'd notice

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

i like that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

nothing

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

whats the difference with the second version?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

don't know if I am

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

're into that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

if you

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

he kinda looks like this one celebrity dude who's name i forget

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

is he pretty?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

so there's that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

Jason might make out with you if you use it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

OH, pro...

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

i'm down with whatever

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

yeah why not

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

I'll just do it to try

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

it's not great

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

thematically it doesn't fit so much, but it's not a complete mismatch

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

hrmmmmmm

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

con

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

we just slap it on

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

it's already done

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

ummmmmmmmmmm

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

pro

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 16, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

what are the pros and cons for doing zombicon

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT

Massa Con

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT

Dick con

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

Nick con

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

Jezus con

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

Fuck con

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

Holy con

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

hehe good

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

hahaha i was jk

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

are we?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

so we're definitely going with Zombi Con, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

the bag could have anything on it really

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

and wouldn't really be visible anyway

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

yeah, that's cool too. it's really only the bag that matters, though, since the badge is so small

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

I'll fix it after breakfast

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

I could just make the badje only be the colors

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

or match it to a logo on the bag

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

the badge is fine though we'd have to get rid of the logo on it i assume

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

i'm open to anything

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

I could also just remove the badge

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

i hope you have a version of this Satan cover with layers cause even the one i have with it as a smart object still doesn't have layers!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

So I forwarded you the email where Jason wants us to use that Zombi Con thing(???) for basically no reason that makes any sense to me. I don't think it looks bad, but it also doesn't fit with the design in my opinion. I say we come back with two alternatives, one that's designed almost exactly like the Zombi Con but it's Holy F*ck themed instead. And then one that's a more direct parody of the Comic-Con logo? I dunno. Whatever you want. I'm just trying to make sure we like the cover and its gets done ASAP.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:39pm PDT

I finished my suggestions / tweaks to your opening scene. I hope dig what I did! But that can wait until later. First we gotta figure out this cover bullshit.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

my version will be in the same script sample document as the other two scenes.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:20pm PDT

i finished reading your changes to my action scene! looks good. i made a few tweaks of my own and left a couple of comments. really small changes, though. i hope you likey. i'm about to sprinkle some Nick dust on your action scene. it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

maybe a parody of the SDCC logo?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

apparently Dave thinks we need to take the SDCC logo off of our cover because it'll have difficulty getting approved by, i dunno, someone somewhere. it's not clear. but anyway, we should probably handle it ASAP since these muthafuckas like to do everything last minute and i'm sure this thing is going to print right away. what would you like to do instead?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

excellent. i'll will let ya know!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

cooool im gonna close my computer I'll see what you think in the morning

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

k sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

I mostly described backgrounds

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

it ain't much

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

groovy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

ok done

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

probably. i'm looking forward to your edits!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

I'll probably be in bed by the time you are done

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

enjoy your lunch

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

sorry I had to

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

k lunch time

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

;)

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

On the other side of the mountain, Professor Decimator's glorious secret hideout comes into view. The fact that his hideout is truly a shame otherwise it would surely have been on the cover of every architectural periodical. This hideout is a true masterpiece of modern architecture.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

oh ye you said you don't know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

why do you ahve this feeling?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

ah ok cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

nah, you don't have to. mine was 100% done.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

unrelated, i have this feeling that Action Lab is somehow going to fuck up our SDCC exclusive. i dunno why, but i do...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

I should do that too :P

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

i'll copy it and make my edits separately just in case

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

like from 5 I haven't really done anything yet but I'm not in the mood for it now anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

do with it as you wish

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

cool. is yours ready for me to go over or do you want to do anything to it first?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I'm going over yours right now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

im the opposite, where everything i write turns out kinda goofy even if i think i'm being really serious

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

yeah mine is pretty dry unless I try ro not have it be dry

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

it also may have a lot to do with different writing styles. i use a lot of exclamations and italics and emphatic writing. yours is a bit more like the tone of a screenplay (though you clearly have your wacky moments too)

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

sure!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

maybe mine needs you to go in and add some of that seriousness (if you see places to do it) and maybe yours needs a bit of my wackiness (if i can find the right spots

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

i see it all working in the same story

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

i like all of it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

mja

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

and i also really like what yours is doing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

he no shit

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

i like wacky too

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

hahahaha yeah that's a pretty good comparison

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

yours almost feels like inspector gadget for adults where as mine is almost SinCity

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

I think your way of Decimators escape is way better than mine

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

but I like the wacky stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

but i also dont want to take things in a direction that you feel is too wacky

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

like overly seriously

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

it could kinda work as it's the cold open

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

you should ask someone else tough

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

they might be

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

i think they both work well. i only wonder if they're TOO different. what do you think?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

but in a good way

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Mine feels like a kids cartoon compared to yours! Hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

IT'S SO EPIC!!! It really has some intense movie pacing. I like the way it builds.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Page 4, Panel 4!!! I love it!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

reading now!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

I got about 4 pages in

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

we should use your script

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

I don't have a workflow or anything

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

scriptwriting, that is.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

sometimes i hate it, sometimes i like it. today it wasn't too bad for me.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

I HOPE YOU LIKEY!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

finished mine. it's in here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W-6B7ygWd5QFvtymllqlkIcomorQ2CwJe6VbipZUbQw/edit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

I'll finish this tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

early 2013

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

I haven't tried to write a script since....

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

ugh scriptwriting is hard

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

never heard it before

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

apparently "holy fuck balls" is a phrase that lots of people use. i keep seeing it when i search to see who's talking about the book.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

to bad man

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

she was supposed to be lining up interviews for me! but i haven't heard anything in days. WHAT IF SHE FIGURED IT OUT?!?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

i'm starting to worry that my latest mistaken identity email conversation has gone cold

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

gave me a chance to read some astroboy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

was pretty good

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i hope it was successful

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

poop time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

yay got it down to 4 to 6 panels a page

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

hehehe guess so

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

i think most people who make comics have quirky systems. there is no standard way to make them. and it's often developed individually instead of in a school setting. so i think weird is actually normal in this situation.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

I work weird

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

I'm just putting pretty much every action into a panel and then I'll edit some shit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

I've had that before

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

it cutting out and shit

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

it's working but it's weird

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

ha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Hmmm maybe not

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

fucking internets

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

ugh

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

I think my internet is down.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

I'll take two more pages then :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

mhh yeah cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

i don't know that it needs that much

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

which current would have 8 pages

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

the middle is the contest announcement and the ambush

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

probably we'll see

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

you could probably add another page or two if you'd like

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

if we're talking about page count for the first issue...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

I'll break it down fully first and then I'll cut

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

maybe too many panels, but i don't think there's too much story in there. how do you feel about cutting panels?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

I got's to many panels

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

k i think im good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

ugh

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

Sounds good. My internet is tweaking BTW

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

I usually start with the broadest I can go and then I break it down

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

breaking it down into panels

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

so what's the next step with it?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

i was a bit confused by exactly how many panels would be on each page since lots of stuff happens, but i think there's a way to get it all in there pretty easily.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

good

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

i think it can fit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

I haven't thumbnailed it or anything so It might be way to much stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

looks good!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

it's kinda a first draft of a page break down

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

I'll tell you when you are allowed to read what I wrote

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

hi

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

yo

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

and then having dinner :3

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

I'm watching cold opens

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

okay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

i'll be around in a hour or so

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

k im going back to bed for a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

so when Prof does his reveal, Lance is like "yeah, so?" "aren't you surprised???" "no, not really... i mean, it's PhD Pretzels... i figured it was you."

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

sure thats funny

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:47am PDT

i'm thinking maybe it could be "PhD Pretzels: intelligent snacks"

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:47am PDT

PhD

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

like Prof is strapped on to a helicopter but Lance holds him by his patches

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

thats what makes it good

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

the only thing i had in there was that Lance tears the leather elbow patches off of his tweed jacket, but that seems kinda silly in retrospect

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

we'll see

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:42am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:42am PDT

*shrug*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:42am PDT

Professor Decimator get's away at the end of the prolouge right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

ok cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

in this one: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11aETpgrtpaRfyyGE6U0iYMVaSA-VH1DRomA_wQMlXd0/edit

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

but not in the oni file

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

i dont think we need to

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

ehm would we do this in a new file?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

maybe we give them both!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

then we'll swap

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

sure

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

and i'll start working on 2

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

how about this... you start working on 1 and i

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

i getcha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

oh right

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

I think it's more about if we can write

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

ME TOO!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

I'm not sure what matters

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

oh its fucking early

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

though

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

not sure if that matters thought

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

wait

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

to a degree

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

and establishes character, but i also think those character traits are established within the plot outline

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

it's obviously an awesome choice because it's self-contained

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

fair point

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

my main concern about 1 is that its not integral to the plot and doesn't feature any character advancement

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

2 is also fine with me it's probably a bit shorter

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

I like 1 because you don't need much background and we'd have about half of #1

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

what are you thinking?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

true

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

thats more interesting visually but we don't draw it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

my gut says 2 or 3 because they feature *Lance*

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

4. water monster fight

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

3. the apartment chopper fight (which is spread over two issues and is longer)

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

2. Lance's first fight as *Lance*

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

1. the beginning fight

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

okay there are four major fights

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:29am PDT

yeaaah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

or actionscene

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

we gotta pick a fight scene to write

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

no you're not

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

I ain't to bad at this

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

because thats so hipsta

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

i would try to get the "undead before it was cool" on my book

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

the i heart romero is nice

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

these are really good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:22am PDT

they were a little cooler but color is to expensive :3

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:20am PDT

I also designed stickers to cover up the typo on the ZH cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:19am PDT

I'm a little scared to do it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:19am PDT

i like that one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:17am PDT

this was another one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

it's huge

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

damn

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:16am PDT

my college friend is doing a screening of her short film thurs night at SDCC. i might try to go. you're welcome to join if you're interested! but no pressure.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:15am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:14am PDT

very excellent

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:14am PDT

they have a wall that artists do murals on

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:14am PDT

the place I'm having the release party

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

SICK!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

I gotta paint this as a mural for the ZombieHipsters release party

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:12am PDT

hahahah cool

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:12am PDT

i just scheduled a ton of stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:12am PDT

my tumblr is your art for the next two hours

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:11am PDT

oooooooooooo cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:09am PDT

I'v been designing a mural and stickers

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:08am PDT

yeah yeah me too. its not all bad

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:07am PDT

I can enjoy it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:07am PDT

stupid

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:07am PDT

sleep is stupif

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:06am PDT

top of the morning to you

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 7:06am PDT

and im baaaack!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

night

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

night

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

k, bed time!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 15, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

cool. that's a pretty good one. the only other thing i could think of would be another Lance / Prof fight from a later issue. like maybe when the helicopter shoots the apartment and *Lance* jumps out of the window to catch onto it. hell, maybe even the fight in the helicopter with the joke that Prof owned the pretzel company the whole time.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

that scene should probably run atleast 6 pages

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

ehm maybe the cold open?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 15, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

oh, also, Justique's mom is visiting us for a week starting on Wednesday. so i might be online a bit less than usual and doing more family stuff.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

instead of working on the outline, i ended up refining the character bios and working on the synopsis.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 9:58pm PDT

we need to do a second script sample for Oni!!!!! they want at least two scenes. any suggestions for a good scene? maybe something with action and professor decimator?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

buh-bye

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

awesome!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

i'll keep working on the outline

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

I'll try to google some shit and have some ideas of myself

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

anyways I gots to go to sleep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

we could try

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

some of the staff will probably already be gone on Wednesday for San Diego preview day

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

but maybe we can go and introduce ourselves

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

ugh

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

but they haven't replied to my last email :(

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

that's up in Hollywood

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

Meltdown Comics employees dug our book

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

it's cool to say I've been there

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

i wish we could do a signing or something

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

same goes for Beverly Hills

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

cool :)

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

that's why I don't have specific ideas myself

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

so we can just drive through

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

I bet it is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

but hollywood is actually kinda boring

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

seeing hollywood is cool because you'll recognize it

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

i have plenty of good ideas, then

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

I just want to get the general vibe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

I'm not to sure to be honest. do you have any tips?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

is there certain food you wanna eat here? or landmarks you wanna see?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

possibly yes

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

but you'll probably wake up early as shit on Weds morning

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

okay so you'll probably be fucking wiped out on Tuesday night

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

so then it's just waiting a couple of hours and trying to catch some z's

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

and I didn't sleep on the plane

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

we arrived in the evening

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

fine

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

what was the time change like for you when you went to miami?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

and then we got 2 days after SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

we got the wednesday

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

what do we have time to do?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

speaking of "teamwork", what kind of LA stuff did you wanna do when you're here?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

hahaha TEAMWORK

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

booya like you read my mind and wrote it better than I would have

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

can't wait to know what you think of it!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

speaking of fuck 'em, i finished my potential version of our ending at the bottom of the document

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

yeah well fuck 'em

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

but if for some reason someone is not into the logo they won't read the rest

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

that'll make an awesome impression

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

it works fantastically

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

it works so well in there

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

fantastic placement for it

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

BEAUTIFUL!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

it's... it;s....

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

look at the top of the document

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

her los of a parent and stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

hopefully Addison's role in it will just sorta organically happen

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

i'm working on a possible scenario for the end scene

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

balanced as fuck

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

it looks fucking balance and fuck

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

100%

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

YEP

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

that font is weird, i've used it here and there but always with a bit of trouble

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

I think I might have it

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

yeah it is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

dunno it's a complicated A

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

i think the A could maybe be closer to both of them. what do you think?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

the BR and IN are perfect to me

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

I'm gonna pretend I did it on purpose :P

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

it really makes it pop

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

great idea switching the tan to orange

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

it's so fucking good

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

i'm loving this color scheme

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

that seems sorta too wide to me now

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

maybe more than a hair for the letters around the A

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

but i basically see the same thing you do

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

yeah i actually think the IN is perfectly and everything else could be a hair closer

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

in the super tiny thumbnail in facebook it looks to close

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

IN could have a little more space

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

im fucking around with it a bit

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

which is not a big deal

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

with that said, i think it's looking fucking fantastic now regardless of my taste in spacing

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

but otherwise i graviatate more towards that spacing

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

in the original, the IN are probably too far apart

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

my beef with the tight one is that the BR touch but the IN don't, which they both overlap with A but thanks to the overlapping BASH it looks like each side overlaps differently

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

definitely more evenly spaced, though i prefer the wide even spacing of the original design:

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

wicked

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

working on it as we speak

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

gotcha. oh wait, one thing though.. the BR and IN seem a little close together compared to their spacing with the A

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

I was in the brain Illustrator layer thats why it was on top

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

like right now

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

i want a tshirt of it

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Mmmm hmmm. I likey that Brain. But I think Bash works better as the overlapper.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

Bash is looking fantastic! Definitely an improvement. I was a bit more into the other version of Brain though with gradient and outline. Thoughts?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

I think she would be sad 'bout her momma and think her dad is silly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

ehm

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

what do you think Addison should do in that scenario?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

sure!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

my situation

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

your joke

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

they kiss blabla bla he knows he's cool with it they walk away ready to bone

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

one more option

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

so i'm cool going with your version, i'd just like to have something which provides a little joke or surprise

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

dude it's all fine with me

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

that's kinda my big thing... like unless we're directly addressing reader expectations or creating a subversion, then to me it doesn't have an actual punchline there

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

it doesn't I guess

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

and if so, why does it matter?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

or is the punchline that only Addison knows?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

guess so

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

is that in and of itself the punchline?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

got it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

so Lance doesn't know if he's banging the mind of a dude or the mind of a chick...

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

and i'm having a hard time seeing all of them

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

i'm not against your version!!! i just want to make sure i'm catching all of the details that make your punchline

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

look I think it's funny wither way so it's both cool with me

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

but at the high five ending, the punchline is that they're both stoked to have gotten laid and they're celebrating

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

the audience might assume Lance is homophobic because he fits the macho guy action trope

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

it's essentially the same joke

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

with mine, i look at the punchline being a subversion of the audience's expectation

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

good question!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

but in that case in your joke, why would he ask?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

I get that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i feel like it's not really tricking him at all

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

isn't it the body that he's into?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i guess at the core of it, the thing i'm wondering is... why would Lance have a problem with doing a the mind of guy in the body of a hot chick?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

if you don't think thats funny that's fine

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

i'm trying to think of the best way to word my reply

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

he ain't getting what he thinks he's getting

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

the punchline is that he's gonna get busy with a dude in a lady's body instead of a lady in lady's body

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

got it. my only thought is... what's the joke in there? i mean, the situation is funny but i'm not totally sure what the punchline is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

it would be the "Victorious, they share an action movie end joke"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

okay so this would be at the very end of the story?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

my lance is a little dumber

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

but I also like your version

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

LANCE: Are you Bill or Lindsay?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

LANCE: Before we go on... I there's something I gotta know... Forgive me tor forgetting but I'm sure I sustained a concussion or two...

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Like in the heat of the moment hey kiss

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

I like it. but I'm saying this could happen before the screw. but then *Bill* Lies

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

*Bill* and Lance high five. Freeze frame. THE END

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

LANCE: Awesome!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

*BILL*: Yep.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

LANCE: Okay, so I just screwed a dude stuck inside of a smokin hot MILF?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

*BILL*: I'm Bill inside of Lindsay.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

LANCE: Are you Bill or Lindsay?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

LANCE: But I there's something I gotta know... Forgive me tor forgetting but I'm sure I sustained a concussion or two yesterday...

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

ha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

LANCE: You weren't so bad yourself, angelfart.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

*BILL*: Mmmm you were great.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Lance wakes up in bed next to *Bill*. They got freaky last night.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Epilogue

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

and you can tell me what does / doesn't work for you about it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

okay, so i'll share with you a more detailed version of my original suggestion

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

somehow we need to get Lance as confused as you are

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i'm unclear on the joke's premise

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

huh????

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

don't know yet :P

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

when would he ask that and why would he ask it?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

i'm still not totally following you

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

he could ask "did you change back?"

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

but everyone knows who everyone is

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

so at the end, Lance and *Bill* go off to screw

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

*Lindsay* dies, leaving *Bill* in his wife's body

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

*Lance* knows this because *Addison* is calling them by their other names

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Bill and Lindsay switch

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

let me take it from the top

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

good :P

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

i'm confused!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

not sure what you mean exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

he should... but he horny?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

so Lance would definitely know

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

after Lindsay dies, wouldn't Addison still be calling *Bill* daddy even though he's in Lindsay's body?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

wait... one problem

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

and the kid knows what's up

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

it could end with them going to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

only the reader should know

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

he shouldn't know

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

should the story end with Lance waking up in bed next to *Bill* and finding out for the first time that it's not Lindsay?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

cock eyed

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

SWEET!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

giving it sharp edges

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

I'm making the brain font in the logo harder

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

so it does work out for the best

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

yeah he totally would

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

BOOOOM

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

because Lance is confused

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

and then he would bang lance

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

Lindsay's body?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

okay, so so Bill will live but in Linday'

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

yeah It might make the story stronger

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

but i'm totally down with that change

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Because it's Bill who dies while in Lidnsay's body

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

But then we have to switch the parent

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

GREAT IDEA!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

calls for a subplot about her finally connecting to her parent and then loosing this parrent

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

- Lindsay takes *Addison* out for ice cream

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

ok I found something

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

k lunch time for me. be back soon

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

hahaha okay thats cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

i think that was only good for a shocking reveal moment, but now we have the pretzel joke for that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

i'm doing away with the "you were never actually switched!" thing

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

anything you wan can be cut or added

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I'm lookin

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

i'm just trying to nail down a basic outline

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

change anything!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

it's no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

personally, i think it appears longer because 1. we've never really written those plot developments down before like this so it takes more space to explain them (basically, we don't have a shorthand for them like in the first two issues, for example), and 2. it's actually pretty quick: switch back, figure out problem with water, fight water monster

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

- People in the city are going nuts, attacking each other - Addison makes a device to isolate Prof in the water supply - Lance fights giant water monster made of Prof

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

it might

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

#5 might get huge

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

mhhhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

the others, not quite as much yet

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

the issue breakdown for #1 looks way shorter but that's because we've got that issue really refined

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

I was like I didn't read any of those changes

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

hahahaha fuck

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

ahhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

i just added the issue breakdown at the end

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

i didnt change that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

oh you were reading the whole thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

mhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

but donuts can still work if you prefer!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

i know it's kinda silly but i figure salt and doughy bread would soak up water better than donuts

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

so yeah the pretzel thing is just a real small tweak as you can see

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

LOVE IT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

YES

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

YES YES YES YES YES YES

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

it's a quick PS version I could make a slightly better one in illustrator just takes more time

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

wanna finish a logo idea

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

i'll read it in a sec

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

well i just finished the potential outline: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11mGiTLi8ZFK7mM8B0-83adidsC8ufKjq0kKfM1xdLWM/edit# skip to the end

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

gotcha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

I know about it because pop-culture

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

in malls, walmarts, cities, everywhere

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

selling big gross buttery soft pretzels

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

and across the USA, there are these pretzel chains

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

it's a pretty big thing here... especially in Philadelphia and New York

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Pretzels are not really a thing here

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

i'm almost done

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

lemme put it into the issues beats and you tell me then

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

is that too dumb?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

is to soak him up with all of the pretzels

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

and the way Lance and Addison defeat the Prof once he's in the water supply

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

fine

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

it's a pretzel shop instead of a donut shop

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

WHAT IF

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

thts cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

that's how i feel about that one

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

no comment

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

OMG YES

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

it could make the package look more like we know what we want

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

*by* our

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

noticing how seduced Dave and Jason were but our cover / branding stuff makes me think coming to Oni with a logo could be an asset. if we have a banging one, maybe it'll help our chances

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

yesh I like structure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

I was thinking about more art but that seems a bit unnecessary since I wouldn't go in as the artist

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

i'm trying to get a basic layout for what could be in our issues to structure the plot, but that's just to help make our outline as tight as possible. more story, the better!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

also, in terms of story, you can add any plot details that you want!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

but it certainly won't hurt

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

not that we NEED them

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

another thing is character sketches for our other three mains

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

haha k cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

okay I can do that

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

okay, so one idea is that we could come to them with a logo suggestion for "Brain Bash"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

suggest away

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

i mean, i can make suggestions if you'd like

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

anything!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

what can I do?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

not sure

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

what would you like to do?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

I'm not to sure what I should be doing right now

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

right now i'm working on nailing down the scenes / beats for each issue

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

't was the plan all along

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

yeah like it makes the whole meet your hero thing make a bit more sense

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

Prof Decimator can reveal it and Lance can be like "Okay." PROF: "Doesn't that upset you?!?" LANCE: "I mean, I guess so. It's not that big of a surprise, really." PROF: "But I've been meddling in your life and you didn't even know it!" LANCE: "Yeah, but it's just a donut joint. I don't see how it matte--" PROF: "Enough of this!!! Heanchmen... GLAZE HIM!!!!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

well and it's just funny

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

k just wanted to make sure you agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

it makes the whole thing a bit tighter

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

oh yeah it's all plot

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

i think that's more of a plot detail than a bio detail. what do you think?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

congrats

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

I had an idea and it worked!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

OMG yes prof decimator should totally own it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

could own it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

I was thinking maybe the mom could own the donut company? or maybe doctorprefessor badguy

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 14, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

I like the character bio's

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

or 6 depends a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

much like the HF origins

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

so four pages that feel like 8 pages and the twist needs to be revealed on page 7

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

I agree

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

so we could basically approach each page of 2000ad as two pages of our regular stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

http://www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk/blog/wp2013/wp-content/uploads/1931-2000ad-09.png

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

i read the second page as well

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

it's not bad, just very dense

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

looks terrible

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

ye not my taste

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

you sign most of your rights off for litle money

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

yup they are problematic for creators

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

they do a shitty job of mentioning the creators

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

I could also do it I don;t mind

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

but seriously i'll probably mail it. no big deal

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

i feel like if it comes from the USA they'll be like "oi! another america twat."

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

might be more interesting

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

i wonder if they'd like it more if it came post marked from Holland

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

booooo

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

it says at the bottom

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

no

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

i wonder if it's digital now...

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

last time i did it was via snail mail, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

mokay

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

mhhh mokday

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

fucked if i know! probably stick to the writer guidelines BUT include some concept art and maybe some of our comics

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

but as a team how would we handel this?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

good

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

we've got time. doesn't re-open until the fall

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Have you ever read Marshall Law?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

it is confusing

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

i wanna buy a new digital issue of 2000ad but its tough to find out where to get it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

that was easy :P

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

DONE

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

oh like serious and gritty?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

enough*

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

the only issue might be that we're not gruff anough

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

nope. and the funny thing is that American publishers look at 2000AD as a kind of breeding ground for creators

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

yeah I don't think it's super un-realistic

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

i think they might be pretty receptive since we're an assembled creative team and we've already got some credits. and i dunno if it matters but british people seem to like Holy F*ck so maybe it helps.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

probably not

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

i dunno if either of those work, though.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

so we have The Cartoonist and the Sonic-ish future story

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

ah cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

and bought some research materials at the time

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

i pitched them back in 2010, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

nice

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

oeh

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

i have some PDFs i can send you

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

I've seen it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

I'm not sure I have ever read any

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

i'll look into it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

its been a while since i read some

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

2000ad

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

oh yeah I forgot about that

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

anyway, yeah 2000AD

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

i'm sure it is. because they're kinda morons. remember how we had that whole typo passage in our contract that they had to fix?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

it does but the AL contract was kinda restrictive on that part

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

i just think international stuff opens up so many possibilities for us

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

i don't remember it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

the international part in our AL contract sucks tough

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

is that wet moon i dutch?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

I think so ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

i think they're still doing future shocks

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

we should pitch them!!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

def.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

ye. I think it fits with the whole 2000ad thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

UK readers seem the most enthusiastic about it

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

honestly though of all of our wordlwide reception (which, granted, is fairly limited...) i feel like the UK has been the best

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

and i think readers would dig our book

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

but their comics culture is so strong

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

at all

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

i'm sure it's not reasonable

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

japanese i would love

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

I can't think of any specific language to be honest

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

yep. good call. let's do that.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

hebrew

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

can you think of any language that might be good for a Holy F*ck translation?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

here's a totally off the wall unnecessary question...

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

k i figured maybe you had a friend who was or sumptin

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

how much was it this year?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

i assume exhibitors have to pay for tables

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

probably just the contact form

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

lemme check

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

so how do you become an exhibitor for this show?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

like 10x less popular than everything else on the website

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

it's a super obscure 80s cartoon

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

ahhh

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

it's on the background of the website

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

thank you, snobs!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

yup they don't read that shit

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

because they were comics and no one cared.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

little did i know, the librarians just didn't have any clue what was in the books.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

i just figured shit like that was normal!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

my library was like that too

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

hahaha good times!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

the image I send is from a book that I found in the kids section in the library when I was 10

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

those are some confusing panels

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

so the next Dutch Comic Con is March 26/27?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

gotcha.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Nobody would give HF to their kid but it no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Today I had to walk past a dude drawing porn

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

in America, i'd say it would be considered offensive... but families never really seem to mind! if they don't like it, they just keep walking

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

okay. would our book be considered offensive to families in Holland? or not a big deal?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

it's a day out for the fam

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

they don't focus on being a trade show

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

why do you think that is?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

wow!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

they only had one year but they are allready the biggest

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

Dutch Comic Con maybe?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

is there a european show that you think we should attend? something where it would be fine that the book is in english and they'd really enjoy Holy F*ck?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

sounds like the way the magazine cartooning biz is here

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

allot of it is based on 45 year olds

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

k, that's all pretty interesting stuff to me

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

allot is import

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

we have a only handfull of artists that make their money from only doing comics

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

a little sad

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

what's dutch comics culture like?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

not surprised.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

France is considered the biggest market

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

Still france

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

is there a region of europe that's considered to have the most influential comics nowadays?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

interesting that they have a culture award for comics

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

I was with the publisher that's doing ZombieHipsters. It wasn't very busy but I enjoyed myself. I mostly focused on getting my peers to know I exist.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

yeah, their review was good. flubbed some of the details, but otherwise very positive.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

yeah, i was gonna say more but i think that says it all.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

yeah they're super weird

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Vito's emails are bossy

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

hahahaha I feel ya brother

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

yep. can't wait to fucking move to the next level. ONIIIIII, BOOOOM, FUCKING HIRE USSSSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

ye I think thats just the way it is at this level

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

yeah, i guess my view on ALE is that some people there are great (Dave, Kevin), some are whatever, and some are jerks. but none of them approach this with much professionalism unless it involves their egos. weird stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

now I am!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

but i wanted to send em to you in case you're curious

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

it's not very important stuff and i've mostly taken care of it so i don't think you need to reply

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

they're worded very strangely

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i sent em to you

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Businesses just work better when they are ran like businesses

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

the stuff with AL sucks and I agree with you

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

did you get Vito's weird emails?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 13, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

venting is fine :)

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

Added some raw character bios to the Brain Bash doc. in the morning, i'll work on editing and refining the plot.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 10:17pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 10:16pm PDT

sigh. just venting. i hope your convention is going well!

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 10:16pm PDT

and then Jason clearly could reply to us about our pitch but he just doesn't give a fuck. i see him posting shit online about DVDs he wants and trailers and other crap. it's been over a fucking week since we last heard from him! how insanely unprofessional is that? not to mention the four or so emails i've sent him in the past month to which he hasn't even replied.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 10:15pm PDT

ya know, the more I think about it, the more I wonder if the fact that no one gets a salary at Action Lab is a huge mistake. it means they all half-ass everything until it comes time for the stuff that might make money right away, like books and personal projects and conventions. otherwise, they procrastinate on shit and don't actually devote themselves to it. i still haven't received a formal rejection for my dollman pitch. i'm not expecting to have it reversed and suddenly accepted... it's just that i was told no by Dave when he was fucking drunk as shit. how do i know if that's actually what the deal is with it?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

i woke up this morning with what i thought was the PERFECT secret origin for Cougar (and Cub too) but then when i started thinking about it, it didn't make any goddamn sense. hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

okay, now it's toodles time.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

cool. have fun! sell books!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 12, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

the other side says "HAVE YOU HEARD? Our dark lord and price of darkness has returned!" And Satan is on it with booth info

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

HOLY F*CK JEZUS IS BACK

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

one side says "HAVE YOU HEARD? Our Lord and Savior Has Returned!" And jesus is on it. Then something about Holy F*ck at booth yadda yadaa

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

a banana

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

what sign?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

okay, idea for the big yellow sign...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

I'm the best at ideas

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

good idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

yes and hold hands and declare our love to EVERYONE

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

k have fun in the sun

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

well if we're not on the panel (because there are plenty of egomaniacs who care more about that... Jamal, Vito, James Wright, the list goes on and on with ALE) we should go up to the podium together

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

I'm gonna go outside for a bit soon

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

I got nothing to say anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

thats fine

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

we might not even sit on the panel

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

will probably be more ALE creators than attendees

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

I know

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

lots of people i mean like lots of speakers

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

EVERYONE

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

attendance was super low last year

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

LOTS of people

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

the panel will be pretty crowded from what i hear

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

good idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

I'm gonna use a funny accent

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

excited

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

:D

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

and our ALE panel is saturday night in the convention hall

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

our religion panel in on thurday afternoon at the library

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

oeh fancy

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

though we wont be there for that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

yeah, all four days AND preview night

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

if nothing else, the scamcaster has been cool about offering you a panel pass too, and that reminded me to check in with Kevin

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

that pass works for all days right?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

allright!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

i confirmed your panel pass with Kevin last night

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

OH BTW

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

is this our life? working with stupid publishers who dont give a shit?!???

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

the guy almost micro managed my gags and I had to re-do the cover pretty late in the process

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

unless they sell all 1000 copies super quick. making sure there are no grammar errors on the cover is almost their main job

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

yeah hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

they should have thats their job

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

I discovered it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

was it them or you?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

that's cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

we're probably gonna cover it with a sticker

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

"pfft whatever, i'm so over that word. it's so played out now."

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

damn!!! maybe there's a way you can spin in. say it's a cool new abbreviation that hipsters are using.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

I'm translating for clarity

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

It should say "--before it was cool" is says "-- Beforit was cool"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

what kind?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

I was printing some preview pages for this weekend only to discover a typo on the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

so now I'm a bit out of it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

OH NO

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

the worsting that can happen to a comic book cover happened to ZombieHipsters

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

I just have no concentration today

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

i'm just freestylin here

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

using some kind of special gun that addison makes

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

hehehe sounds cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

then Lance has to fight a giant water monster

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Addison uses her science to isolate decimator in the water

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

because we kinda need a 5th

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

professor decimator seeps into the water supply was my previous idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

i guess there could be a 5th issue with that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

but there was also the idea that we need one more big fight... where the two of them fight together

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

okay cool :)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

so i guess four issues because that would encompass the final fight and the resoution

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Issue 3: *Addison* gets the gear together to perform the experiment, *Lance* limps home, experiment works, *Lance* barges in, shiiit dunno other stuff. and this issue should end with Prof Decimator shooting up the apartment and killing *Bill* (in Lindsay's body)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Issue 2: *Lance* wants to go after Prof Decimator and brings Bill with him, Lindsay and *Addison* go for ice cream, *Lance* leaves Bill with the car, awesome *Lance* action scene shooting big guns with little girl body, maybe have some scenes of *Addison* realizing that she might be able to switch her own parents, and then end with *Lance* getting blown up or something

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

the act breaks

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

I'm gonna literally write that in the plot file

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

ye thats act 1

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

Establish Lance, establish Addison as the contest winner, have them get ambushed, have them wake up in the hospital, ends on the page of Addison smoking in the apartment.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

But I think I know our first issue:

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

i guess i see it in three acts

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I'm just seeing how we could improve the structure

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

right now I also see it as a graphic novel

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

what about you?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

hard for me to see issue breaks in it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

what's funny about that is i see this a graphic novel

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

number of issues...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

hmmmmmmmmmm

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

i think maybe we give them one page with a logline and a full synopsis, kinda like our previous pitches. another page of character bios / backstory stuff ("Lance is a mercenary in the style of 80s action movies etc"), and then a refined version of the plot broken down into issue-by-issue character beats

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

what are we aiming for in terms of issues?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

allright

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

they're cool with up to 5 pages for an outline

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

which we should probably refine. not shorten, necessarily, just refine

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

right now we've got about 3 pages of plot

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

so i'm feeling this direction. i'll do another pass on it later today. tighten up the grammar and so on. and then hopefully you can go in and add more awesome stuff!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

i think it's important. not all editors are creators. they may not fill in the details like you and i might.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

the detail is mostly for the editors

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

But then I also always know who I'm writing for and it rarely needs to be detailed for them (aka you!)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

I think your instinct to add more detail is right on. I tend to underwrite scripts a bit.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Especially the stuff to Page 4. Really funny panel descriptions

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

good :)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

HAH!!!! I love what you did to it.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 11, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

sounds good. will read soon!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 6:54am PDT

I'm overworking it on purpose so it looks a little more "Impressive" for the pitch.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 6:52am PDT

I'm working on the script

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 11, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

giving it to them raw will give it more of that concept art feel

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 10, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

she sent me something about writing an article on a skydiving championship event and this was my reply:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

i might actually end up fake interviewing people off of this latest email.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

i dunno if we can. it's already so preposterous

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

how do we turn this into comix!?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

it's amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

I know

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

i think he actually goes and seeks out that stuff, though. this stuff just fucking happens to me!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

for some reason your situation reminds me of the site

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i probably saw it if it's years old

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

it's pretty funny haven't read it in years tough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i may have seen that before. did it get a new web design

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

:3

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

right now i've got a woman emailing me because she wants me to write a skydiving article for a website i don't even work for

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

have you ever read http://www.27bslash6.com/ ?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

they just don't think

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

and all of these young dumb kids (and occasionally old men and women) think that either 1. i'll never find out or 2. i'll never figure out it's them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

and nowdays you typically need to use an email with your name in it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

crayzay

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

yeah it's super common here

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

common

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

becuase your name is commin

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

why does this keep happening?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

thats funny shit

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

ahh that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

mh?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

did you see my thread about it?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

i got a little distracted by that email thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

so, yeah, today i'll finish exporting all of our pages and uploading them to dropbox

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

yayayyya

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

reblogged

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

thank you

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

those both rule!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

I've been fascinated with elonggated eyes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

is it on tumblr? i wanna reblog it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

IT"S SICK!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

did you do that>?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

that gif is amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

what am I gonna do? animation?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

you write you might have a choice

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

WHY DID I PICK THIS MEDIUM?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

my primary feeling on it is that even if they're jerking us around about the costs or padding them with bullshit, there's still not much money getting made here. it's such a low margin business with high costs on the printing and shipping sides

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

and the new gravedigger reprint might be higher than us

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

zombie tramp is #2

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

puppet master is #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

now it would be the third or fourth

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

second highest they had ever had at the time

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

but Holy F*ck was on the higher end of their DangerZone sales right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

although, after talking to Dave, i think their business model is "try anything and maybe make money"

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

agreed.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

I would be like what is your business model!?!?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

right? me too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

If Holy F*ck doesn't break even I would be confused

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

ah okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

although, according to jason, we weren't going to receive anything until august

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

this one was almost a month late

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

mid August

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

the next one should come in september right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

yep. we really don't.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

I think thats the big problem right now we don't see the full picture

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

yeah me too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

with #4 and the trade

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

nah just want to see the next one

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

ehmmmm

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

as of right now, i don't have any

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i'm glad to ask him any questions that you have

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

yep.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

he get's the numbers from somewhere

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

it shouldn't have to be

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

since Scott has to do the totals, i'm sure itemizing it wouldn't be that hard

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

it's a pretty bad accounting statement, considering that nothing is itemized.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

i'm just guessing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

they should put that on there much clearer tough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

ahhh yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

it might be so low because of our ad revenue

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

it's probably a bunch of stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

OH

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

i have no idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Advertising and Promotion is mostly diamond right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

I guess so...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

good question

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

also, what's postage and delivery? is that how much it costs to mail us our comp copies?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yeah, another good point!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

and what about adds on the back

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

good question

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

I just wonder how much they printed up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

it seems crazy high to me

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

that's all i got

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

possibly "setup" fees at the printer

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Canada to US

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

which is international

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

shipping from the printer to Diamond

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

but a few thoughts...

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

i think the printing costs seem crazy high

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

I'm just a little confused why the printing costs are so high compared to the sales but I guess it's because of the trade

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

mhhh yeah we'll see

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

so Holy F*ck should, all in all, break even, if not make a tiny profit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

not large amounts of money getting exchanged here.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

so, yeah, that's a thing.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i guess i just made up a word there

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

surmise

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

ah okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

as far as i can surmize.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yeah, that's what we lost in Q1. that should include all printing, but not include sales for the TPB or #4.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yeah thats not to bad

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

not surprised at all by this, though $13,800 seems especially high to me for printing.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

is that what the book lost?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

okay thats what I taught

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

nope

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

did we make 1,422.22 ?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

I was about to ask about that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

https://www.dropbox.com/s/x1xd7imqfwv084x/Holy%20F-ck.pdf?dl=0

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

We got our Q1 accounting report from Action Lab.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

BOOYA

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

all gorgeous ideas. let's do all of them but call it Holy F*ck 5: Crises on Multiple Crucifxes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 3:51am PDT

Holy F*ck 3: Hell is where the hearth is The Last 20 years of the christ family has been pure bliss. But let’s be honest a kid that has Jezus and Satan has her daddy’s. Rad’s been showing some real potential for destruction (what happend to Latvia?) but now puberty has started to kick in and her first period could mean the end of the world. Jezus Christ goes down into hell to solicit the help of every underworld deity and spirit available. Holy F*ck 3: Never say cheese sticks The world has changed into a post apocalyptic wasteland. Jezus and Satan are gone, to it’s up do rad to rebuild the world. But does she have more to do with the destruction than se leds on???? Holy F*cked part II All In The Family. Jezus finds out Satan has been seeing his brother(Chad) on the side. Even tough Satan claims he thought Chad was Jezus, Jezus decides to leave. Jezus goes on a journey to find himself….. in space

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:50am PDT

I know you like it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:36am PDT

just for the record

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:36am PDT

though i think they're fucking fantastic

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:36am PDT

i don't see why not

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

I'm still not to crazy about the #4 cover colors but I got time to fix that right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

k catch ya later today

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:32am PDT

I gotta go to school

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

hahahah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

cause i just use it for transportation

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

not really, though

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

i got to pour more of my experiences into that one

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

yeah skater is better

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

nah it was either DJ or Skater

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

we never got very far with the idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

i don't remember

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:24am PDT

I think it was pretty much supposed to be a throw away thing, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:23am PDT

maybe it would have been

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:23am PDT

nope

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:23am PDT

it woulda been... not like this

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

I kinda liked that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

HAHAHAHAHA!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

remember how i wanted to make Jesus a celebrity DJ?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

yes they are

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

I know but they're creatively fulfilling

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:19am PDT

one shots don't sell well

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:19am PDT

yeah get why they don't, though

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

she is!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

I kinda wish AL was into one shots

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

Maria is clearly the new Secret Pope

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

Holy Spirit is fine... he was around before anyone else.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

Cosmic Moses finally gets out of orbit

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

Mother 3resa

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

wouldn't mind doing the new NEW apostles in a sequel

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

i do love me some new apostles too

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:16am PDT

i'm down

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:16am PDT

oh cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:16am PDT

but growing up I always imagined her as a lady spider

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

ye it doen't matter

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

we're very good about not mentioning that at all, i think

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

i'm cool with anansi being a woman

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

Jesus vs. nature... MOTHER NATURE

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

I think Anansi is a lady

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

he's always laying low

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

what's his deal?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

Anansi

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

where did Isis go?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

Like Cosmic moses what happens to him?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

characters in General

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

left as in gods?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

I'm pretty awesome I know

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

left*

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

my first reaction is to ask who's elft standing

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

;)

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

as they always are

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

better ones than mine

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

i'm sure you do

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

yeah I also have idea's

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

sooooooooooo....

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

my gut reaction to doing a first sequel was Jesus vs. sexual slavery

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

that's my gut reaction to this.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:11am PDT

it's like 50 years in the future. Maria is an old woman. Rad is grown up. and somehow Jesus goes to Hell. i dunno why, but he does. and Rad has to go after him.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:11am PDT

but we have dicks and a vagina

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

this was actually more tame than i expected

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

agreed

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

because we really haven't pushed the limit

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

there could be one more

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

we'd probably have to do a kickstarter

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

overall, i feel like, after reading this

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

it is

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

but the idea is pretty cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

never I think

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

and since when has Action Lab EVER done that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

i can't argue with something like that! though i have a hard time imagining it

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

right? well dave, though he's not the decision maker, likes the idea of us doing a Bible 2 hardcover collecting three of them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

also I was looking at the Glory hardcover and was thinking that that would be pretty neat to have

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

i'm in no rush

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

we'll talk about it after #1 hits

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

ohhhh wellllll

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:07am PDT

because i feel like we did goofy wild shit in the first one, fucked with expectations in this one, and then we sorta need to take it completely over the top with a third one

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

reading Holy F*ck kinda made me want to do a third one

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

reading it sorta makes me want to do a third one

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

the covers are fun

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

all in all, very good

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

it's an epic build

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

yeah great choice to do the horizontal panels

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

I like it too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

so do I

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

"are you ready to die?" "um... no."

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

also, that first page of #4. i love the pacing on there

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

so did the secret pope looking at satan. "wow. that's, um, weird."

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

that got a big laugh out of me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

love the panel when herc is running away with jesus and he's like ???

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

and the fight ends kinda abruptly with changing locations

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:03am PDT

oh right

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:03am PDT

not completely but the fight kinda starts abruptly with changing locations

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:02am PDT

how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:02am PDT

so do I the comic also kinda mirrors itself

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:01am PDT

but that's the same trick we pulled with the first one and i think it works here as a thematic echo

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:01am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

in that the fight ends and suddenly they're at the hospital

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

a bit

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

kinda ends abruptly

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

#4 is solid.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

the final issue!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

yeah it's cray

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

exactly what we wanted

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

just one big fight

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

#3 fucking rocks too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:50am PDT

hahahaha yes it is

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

we really did a good bait and switch. the first half is SO boring and the second half is so awesome.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

issue #2 is so good!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

without them, it's more suspenseful

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

with them, you know herc is planning something

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

it's better without the thought bubbles

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:41am PDT

I'm gonna jump in the shower

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

okay, reading #2

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

ohhh jezus in helll

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Jesus goes to Hell

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

or hell

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

or underground

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

space

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

if we for some wild reason did a 3rd one, i feel like it would have to be in a crazy setting

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

especially with the text backmatter

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

it feels much more mature

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

hahahaha almost

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

it's almost like a fucking archie comic or something

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

hahahah yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

"hey, you thought we were gonna do something just as wacky? FUCK YOU! here's a comic book about domestic bliss and a homeless shelter!!!"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

the build up to the crazy stuff is way bigger

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

i love how this is a middle finger to everyone

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

i think i prefer the zaniness of Holy F*ck over this BUT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

it's almost... cute?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

it's good

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

psych!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

i hate that goddamn dark gray

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 9, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

im about to do a full read through of the book

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

but in retrospect i dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

i added them because i was worried that the scene needed more fleshing out

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

the biggest problem might be that it's the only time we use them

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

i'm just looking at them and wondering if they actually add anything

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

seems a bit drastic but If you think thats the right thing to do

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

completely

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

i can also just get rid of them

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

OHHHH now you notice the balloons!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

I exported in differently

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

I'm not crazy about the taught balloons but other than that looks good!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

hahaha! the other one was 2064x3132 so i figured you did something different

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

hehehehe sure I remembered

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

cool, finally heard from Jason on one email. he's cool with our color choices for the covers.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

YAY!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:21pm PDT

annnndd okidoki to the rest

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

oh whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

wait no i did email it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:57pm PDT

emailing FOR THE FIRST TIME now :D

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:57pm PDT

my bad

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:57pm PDT

i don't think i ever emailed them over in the first place!!!!!! SORRRRRY

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:57pm PDT

WAIT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:55pm PDT

also, i'm proofreading those backmatter TIFs and the pages for Holy F*cked #2 don't have the final corrections. I'll re-email the corrections to you now :D

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

do you think that maybe you saved them with JPG compression? that's what it looks like to me. LZW, ZIP, or no compression at all would be better pleeeez!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:40pm PDT

http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/backmatter-compression.png

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:40pm PDT

i noticed that there's a ton of distortion on the backmatter TIFs that you uploaded.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:25pm PDT

hahaha i just got an email from Kevin being like "Nick, we'd like to do an SDCC exclusive for you guys... but we need a cover! sorry for the short notice, but we only have about 72 hrs." and i was like "We already have one!" ... i guess Jason never told them or showed anyone? sheesh!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:16pm PDT

you likes?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:16pm PDT

anyway, i thought they might look a bit snazzier if they were color matched to the art.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/homage-sigs-hfd.png

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

here, this looks way better

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:09pm PDT

i'll make a PNG and send you a link

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:09pm PDT

well, they look kinda shitty because of facebook's fucking compression.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 5:08pm PDT

whatcha think about this?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

jason may never read them

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

part of me just wants to reuse the mayo pic

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

seeing this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

it wouldn't be perfect layout wise

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

but i trust your layout magic!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

from what i can surmise

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

physically it doesn't fit well with the layout

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

ohhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

like you just emerged from the hole you called your home

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

waddabout you looking rugged

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

thats boring

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

another option is you on the ranch and me with a camera? that seems kinda boring though

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

mhhhh dicks

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

what was i thinking

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

why would we be nude?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

wait, scratch that

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

totally nude

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

but like us facing forward or even each other?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

good

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

that

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

i was gonna say

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

ywp

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

it would be similar to this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

is the backseat a good one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

i was typing it while you pasted it

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

hahahaha right

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

it could go right under the pragraph about us working in the backseat

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

or "It was a magical ride home. Reinvigorated, the creators began to write Holy F*cked #4 in the backseat. By the time we made it to Nick’s Malibu abode, the entire issue was scripted and Daniel was already sketching thumbnails."

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

OOORRRRR

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

it should be around "Daniel contacted me shortly after the fiasco as well. He was concerned about the mental state of his collaborator and prodded me for information. I didn’t reveal Nick’s hideout, but I did admit that I was aware of his location. "

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

it's tough because our "reunion" isn't in a good place for the drawing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

ehmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

yesh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

i'd say copy everything because i changed stuff in the middle

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

okay, done! let's see how it fits

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

hahahaha sure

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

lemme go cut some shit out! i love this part

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

okay so we need to lose a paragraph or so

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

I'll copy the text and then I'll see how much space we gots

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

I probably had my cursor in the box

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

hahaha nothing, just facebook being dumb

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

which part?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

I would do the moment right after because it has more innuendo

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

you're all sad and i;m like YES!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

for #3, how about drawing the moment right when the mayo falls on your pants

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

I know it's tough

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

also, the title for #4 is boring

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:12am PDT

THIS IS TOUGH!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

i think i should also flesh out the end of #4

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

could you send me a screencap of the whole thing? i'm gonna suggest drawing ideas based upon the layout :D

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

glad you agree

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:08am PDT

oh BTW before you told me not to deleted anything else, i changed somethign about the last three paragraphs

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:02am PDT

what do you think the keymoments are in these two stories

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

that'll get 'er done

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

put "massive" before "knockdown"

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

i know

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

ooo

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

"balls out fight"?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

and then i want to add a couple of words to the first paragraph to get rid of that widow too.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

that'll get rid of the widow

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

ofcourse

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

can we make it "in the back of my car" instead?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

oooo it looks good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

oh i won't

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

i need to change the "IN OUR NEXT ISSUE" thing too

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

just made a big change to the beginning

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

i still need to cut a paragraph or two

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

i might try to tweak that

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

so much spacing

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

oh also i feel like my first paragraph doesn't fit very well in the layout

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

yes perfect

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:51am PDT

i just delted two paragraphs and i think it flows better already

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

uh huh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

mhh yeah can you make that flow more into the fineart thing?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:50am PDT

the stuff about the foldout can be snipped out so easily

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

thats an option for an illustration

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

that would never get cut

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

hahahah yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

" That's when a giant glob of mayo landed on the crotch of Daniel's pants."

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

it was probably going to be just me and that guy and he was gonna slip a roofie in my homemade beer he so desperately wanted me to drink

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

now we gotta make Bad Decisions at SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:47am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

A String of Bad Decisions

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

hahaha did you have a point?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

the fan art market is going crazy out here. i think there's gonna be a big explosion soon and all of these sticker and tshirt companies are gonna get shut down

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

i lived in the suburbs and i owned a car and i offered to drive this really annoying lady and her kid home. IT WAS FUCKING NIGHTMARE!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

dude, i just had the worst dream

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

hahaha that's funny how my backmatter for #3 is just too long and the one for #4 is just too short!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, June 8, 2015 at 7:26am PDT

coooooooooooooooooooooooool! those are the ones i like too.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 6:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 6:41am PDT

to bad they have to be so much shorter than the first one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 6:41am PDT

I like #3 and #4!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:28am PDT

allll good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 8, 2015 at 12:27am PDT

3rd batman thing I like the knife one and the others

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:27pm PDT

k bedtime!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:06pm PDT

backmatter for #4 is done. it's a far more reasonable length than #3. but for now, i'll leave #3 on the long side and we can decide what to cut out once we determine exactly how much we need.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

oops typo in the first sentence!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

We're serving up piping hot pile of excitement as a mild-mannered dinner party turns deadly! Jesus and Satan are hosting Maria and her new lover, Thanatos, over for an evening of camaraderie and conversation. But Thanatos isn't actually Thanatos... he's Hercules! And he wants to kill Jesus. Plus... introducing the righteous might of The New Apostles!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

#2 synopsis:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:01pm PDT

okay, how's this? a little subtler on the bottom corner of the knife:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

now that i look back at it, #2 needs works.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:51pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:51pm PDT

this one was super easy too:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:46pm PDT

okay, this one was super easy:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:39pm PDT

anyway, you get the idea

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:39pm PDT

oops. sent the pic first

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:39pm PDT

this one was a bit trickier. had to cover up the original sig:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

okay, this i think it better than either of those:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:03pm PDT

nahhhhh that's too distracting! fuck this is tough

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 9:02pm PDT

here's what i think might look better:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 8:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 8:28pm PDT

yes or no:

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 5:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

cool I'll read it in the morning!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

DONE! Hope you dig. It ends on a nice cliffhanger ;)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

it's probably too long

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

okay i think my first draft for the #3 backmatter is done

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

I kinda wish I'd drawn him more

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

yeah your design for him is awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

I finally read Holy F*ck and I really did the Garuda Design so I decided to draw him

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

yay pinups

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

I love this fucking Garuda pinup!!!!!!!! What'd ya draw it for? It's the tits.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

I would be honored if you did a pinup for the Stickstarter!!!! I'll let you know more when the time gets closer. It's gonna be really funny, with a ridiculously low goal and lots of funny tiers. It'll almost be a parody Kickstarter campaign.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 6:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 1:58am PDT

IF YOU DO A STOICKCATS KICKSTARTED YOU GOTTA HAVE ME DO A PIN-UP

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, June 7, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

cool I'll take a look later!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 7, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

hmmm. i'm sleepy. didn't get done as much backmatter as i wanted, but ish #3 is probably 3/4s complete. looking forward to your thoughts on it!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

LIKE A REAL MAN

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

I'm gonna spend some time with mah woman

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

lets do it!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yesh and a picture of the cartoon would be a screenshot

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

becaause all of the drawings are us

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

it should probably be us getting assaulted by photographers and paparazzi!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I'm not a 100% sure if it would work

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

I'll sketch something

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

but in your morgan morganstern style of course

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

for the second page drawing, what about super cartoony New Apostles charging towards the reader, as if it's the opening from The New Apostles Power Hour?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

line up

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

that should be just right and make thingies like up perfectly

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick's detailed literary script also included an introduction for a bold and shocking character... Jesus's other long lost lover and the intended leader of The New Apostles... Muhammad.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

naw, i like it there

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

maybe i should put the illustration back on the bottom

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

i might add a few words to an early paragraph to get it lined up just right at the bottom

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

it didn't change much

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

did that linebreak change anything?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

what's the layout looking like right now?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

someone smashing a tv?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

whatcha thinking?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

i'm good with whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

is there anything you would like to see illustrated?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

sexy

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

ye thats more end stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

it's so not important right now

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

or ya know what? i'll just let you know all of that at the end

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

could we italicize the second sentence of the first paragraph too?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

s'all good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

whoopsie

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

needs a line break under the first paragraph

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

not bad

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

still funny!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

seems good!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

not suggested haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i suggest

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

it will affect the first page as well, so i'd suggested grabbing everything

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

okay i condensed a bit of stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

hahah yeah its tiny

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

it just looks like a line of solid black in these images hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

OHHHH i see it

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

or maybe there is?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

oh i just realized there's no by line on these pages!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

already made a few edits. gimme 5 mins

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

i'm in the middle of another proof read right now

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

i'll cut some out

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

i didn't change anything on page 1

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

it's probably too much text, but i'm sure some stuff can be deleted

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

nice I like

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

okay, good to go.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

okay, i need to proofread it real quick but i think i'm good

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

hmmmm k

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

nope

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

does anyone get kicked in the nuts in #3?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

thats what she said

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

almost done

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

BRB

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

there might be something even better in there

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

i'm gonna do it super quick

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

lemme bang out six or so more graphs and then we can figure out the drawing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

us giving papers that say contract to everyone and a dude in a suit being upset

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

for real

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

this is looking fucking great

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

prettier than a pink kangaroo on the barbecue

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I could just turn the whole story into an iilustration

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

YES! except i think there probably needs to be a space between "Part 2:" and "Mo"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

so i figure your drawing on the second page should be able something else entirely

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

anyway, i love the layout you have right now because the paragraph about burning the pages comes right above the drawing

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

maybe?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i bet that will make it look better

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

just move "Mo' Problems" over so the Mo's are sitting on top of each other

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

OH! i know

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

I allready put the title higher on the page than the first stories title

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

I'd have to fuck with it a bit but it's no problemo

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

I could put the subtitles on one line

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

change all you want

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i hate how the subtitle looks split on two lines

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i think i'm gonna change up some stuff, though

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i'm glad to add a chunk more. no probs bobs!

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

it's looking good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

mhhh I'm bad at estemating

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

I'll drop in everything we have now

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

honestly I think space whise you wrapping this up will be plenty

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

with that said, it's always better to cut stuff our than struggle to add stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

k i'll wrap it up with a couple of paragraphs.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

OHHHH that could be funny too.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

not much

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

that*

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

how much more do you think we need?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

part of me thinks just draw a bulky dude and then scratch out his face or something like hat

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

yah, iz good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

lemme think 'bout what I'ma draw

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

cewl cewl

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

so yeah lemme know what you need after today :D it won't get processed until monday anyway

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

also, i thought it was waaaaay earlier in the week when i said that thing about ordering books, forgot it was thurs

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

yeah it could fuckin go either way

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

Muhammad would be funny but ya know.... might be to edgy?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, June 6, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

hahahah super funny

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

added some more. still needs a good ending, though...

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

the more i think about it, the more hilarious Muhammad would be, especially because it's not even in the story... it's like a fucking throwaway joke hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 7:18pm PDT

towards the end of the episode: http://cbpitt.blogspot.com/2015/06/204-up-periscope.html

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 4:17pm PDT

if i think if more, i'll let ya know

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 4:16pm PDT

likey?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 4:16pm PDT

you're holding the script in one hand and looking at it skeptically. with your other hand, you're giving the script the middle finger.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 4:15pm PDT

okay, another idea for a drawing...

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 4:15pm PDT

hahahahaha yeah good point!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

the thing about the text is. the two things that would makes sense most to draw would be 1.basket weaving.... and fuck that 2.Mohammad.... and ya know

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

okidoki

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

catch ya in the morning

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

heading out for the afternoon with Justique

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

does that sound good at all?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 8:17am PDT

and then maybe the smaller drawing could fit on the second page?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

well, i was thinking... maybe there's something from earlier in the text that you'd like to draw at the larger size like in the first one...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 2:56am PDT

I think

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 2:56am PDT

ssoooo if we have at least one more quote thingy and 1 more illustration you just gotta write little over half a page more

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 2:07am PDT

whet you wrote now with the illustration that I already did is 1 page.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, June 5, 2015 at 1:51am PDT

cool I'll take a look at it

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 1:48am PDT

If so, feel free to lay it out and then I can write however much we need to fill up the rest of the two pages.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 5, 2015 at 1:47am PDT

I didn't get as much done as I'd hoped, but I did complete the Muhammad section of #2's backmatter. It's been added to the end of "the making of" document on Google Drive. Do you likes?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

no bigs

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

I accidentally only replied to dave and then tried to reply to everyone

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

how?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

fucked up a little

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

yeah i think say whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

hahaha maybe but I'll reply

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

just slightly grin worthy

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

but i can't tell because it's not that funny!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

seems kinda like he's just joking

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

i also wonder if he's just fucking around

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

no purse a male super hero wouldn't have backpack. I'm all for a logo but I have no ideas for a logo. I also like the C she should feel a little generic

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

in a funny way

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

kinda suggestive

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

but also, i like the C

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

i like the logo idea!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

she don't fly

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

No cape

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

I'll reply

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

what do you think?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

it's pretty funny

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

tell me when you read it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

it;s kinda funny

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

ugh i kinda dont wanna read it!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

i dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

dave replied

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

maybe thats how you're supposed to do it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

thats how we used to do it back in the day

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

i used Facebook like an old man

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

ah I figured as much

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

if i support an event, i just hit "going"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

i also knew that you just invited everyone

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

yep, i understood

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

did you understand what you joined?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

it's my bad

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I was lazy and just invited everyone on my friend-list to come to the release party but now people that live abroad joined so the numbers don't mean anything

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

noo

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i thought you meant the publisher unjoined

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

oh you want me to unjoin

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

kinda*

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

kida

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

I'm having a release party for ZombieHipsters one July 3rd and you RSVP'D

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

haha why??

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

on that dude unjoin the event :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

it's going well now

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

BTW

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

how is that going?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

naturally

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

I guess I've been trough a similar thing with my dutch publisher which gives me this knee jerk reaction

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

personally i feel like this was a good situation for us because we were able to work through it and present a unified message to them that advocates for our stance while being really respectful of what they want.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

just turned me off

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

not at all

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

agreed. but just being negative doesn't help us. jason's most recent reply just wasn't constructive.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

I'm cool with improvement like their first notes were awesome! it helped us rethink the whole thing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

ah see it now

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

yah, while back

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

did you mail them yet?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

guess so

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

i think that's the politics of publishing

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

it's less about us and our story and more about them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

i think they'd do this to ANYTHING we showed them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

but i don't think they trust our guts because we only have one non self-published american comic. we're young, people seem to care about the book, and they had nothing to do with the image of it aside from some cover art input

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

but then I'd rather have them be like "show us something else"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

might be

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

and it might be!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

the branding is the main thing they control and they probably think that's their main talent... getting the title and look just right.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

these guys are almost in their mid 40s. they've been making comics for at least 15 years. no big hits. minor successes but mostly centered on being publishers.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

ye but then I'd like him to come out and say "we think it's to different" or something like that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

i think that's almost a control / confidence thing on their parts.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

well, i think we have trust in the sense that they want to publish it! but not in terms of branding

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

not before, because

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

but the second ones struggle before labels want a certain identity and bands want to do things differently

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

I taught we earned some trust

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

like bands tend to crush their first albums

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

but because this is our second property

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

not with them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i had a feeling we might run into this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

yeah compromise is fucking tough

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

it isn't inviting to trying to find a midway

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

could be

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

i've found talking to him on the phone is way different. but his emails are almost rude.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

do you think it's because he has a really dismissive style of writing? i feel like the way he words things, they don't acknowledge the work or improvements that good be in there and just emphasize kind of a whiny "meehhhh i don't like it! it's worse!" almost like a message board troll.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

buttt it's on thin ice :P

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

well i'm glad it's slightly less

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

now a bit less but still

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

yeah but in this case it's upsetting to me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

we just don't see eye to eye with him for some reason

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

yeah that's classic us vs. jason

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

I still can't quite get over the fact that it seems like he felt our changes made the comic worse while we tough the changes made it much better

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

you can add to it that the SFX was hand drawn

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

yeah good idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

maybe thanks for trying to help us make it better

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

what patience?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

but i dunno that we need that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

it was gonna be a "thanks for your patience" kinda thing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

changed my mind

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

meh

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i might also like to add

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

I'm behind this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

"so basically right now we feel like wonderkat is out of the picture, and in turn out of the running for the title. is that a deal break for you guys?"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yesh I like

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

"but now that we're sure we want to go in a different direction with the older superhero and make it a her, he;s interested in holding onto his wonderkat name and concept for something involving the original character."

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

"to give you some background, Wonderkat is a character he developed years ago. when i brought the superhero sex story idea to him, we thought it might be fun to plug wonderkat into it."

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

"as for the wonderkat name, i hate to let you down but... the more Daniel and i dicuss it, the less he's interested in going that route."

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

"character designs! which one do you guys prefer? daniel and i are both more jazzed about the yellow+orange one right now. has a bit more pop and personality to it."

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

to them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

here's what i would like to say

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

good :D

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

this makes me less annoyed

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

because that's a much easier angle

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

let's just say that Wonderkat is no longer in play regardless of the costume

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

i prefer this angle

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

OKAY

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

he should be in an all ages comic anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

as he should be

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Wonderkat's off the table :)

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

you're right

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

especially since you have a strong connection to your original character

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

i'm personally inclined to say that this female version shouldn't be wonderkat at all

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

so in that regard, i

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

personally i think Wonderkat doesn't work nearly as well for a female character due to the Catwoman and Wonder Woman mental connections

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

okay thats cool with me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

exactly

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

cool take one battle at a time

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

if there is, then let's figure it out once we're sure it's a concern

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

if there's not even a "Wonderkat" in the story, we don't need to worry about it as much

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

basically

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

by hash it out i mean work out something we all like

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

with hash it out

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

but 2. if they're really feeling the female wonderkat, we can hash it out

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

because i think 1. is they prefer the cougar it won't be as much of an issue

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

ok

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

and then worry about the title next

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

let's email them these costumes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

how about this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

i just needed to get things clear!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

anyway, i'm fine with presenting any scenario to them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

if it's better for clarity just tell them Wonderkat is sitting in het Katcave jacking off

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

i had a dumb carrot analogy i was gonna use, but it was dumb haha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

if we still dangle it out there, i worry that the issue will remain unresolved for both sides

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

I understand that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

well, i think that's my concern about telling them 1. singular is okay, and that 2. your new female character is still Wonderkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

also the general sentiment of the email makes me feel like they'd like to see a different angle than what excites us

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

I'm afraid we won't be able to get it of their minds

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

To me we seemed quite clear that we were not into that title but they keep on going on about it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

tell me more...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

but their "infatuation" makes me weary

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

so, if i may try to toss out an objective perspective on this, they have become infatuated with a modified branding based upon the limited knowledge them have of our story and characters. you, on the other hand, dislike the modified branding because it alters an existing character that you've developed.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

part of me being this annoyed is that I don't feel like they'll understand

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

right, yeah, i think that's the crucial piece of information for them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

I understand that but to me Wonderkat is still an existing character (which they don't know)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

i think that might be where Jason's idea "Wonderkats: Kougar and Kub" came from. making Wonderkats the team, and Kougar and Kub the character names.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

yeah of course

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

or "wonderkatboy"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

I'd understand if he would be called "Kid wonderkat"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

just tossing out why the plural may be logical in their minds

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

i'm not saying i agree with them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

i think to them the difference may be that there's only main character in that story while we have the two

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

Zombie Tramps

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

the extra s is like calling Zombie Tramp

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

'i'll be back with text

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

gimme a few mins... i

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

just wanted to make sure

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

okay, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

I like Wonderkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

you don't like the S on the end because you think it's dumb BUT you also don't mind using Wonderkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

I want what we made up yesterday

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

clearly we have these two great character designs and one is much better to us

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

yeah, i'm generally mixed up about the stance we're presenting here.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

mixed up?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Kougar and Kub seems arbitrary

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

oh geez now i'm mixed up

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Daniel is cool with reverting back to Wonderkat but he will not have the book be called WonderkatS

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

what do you think about Kougar and Kub?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

ehm put it on me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

"we'll use wonderkat only if it's singular?"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

i'm not sure how to present that to them :/

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

it's too random and stupid

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

without the extra S sure

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

I'd rather not because I hate the extra s

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

you're open to using the wonderkat branding for the female version?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

anyway, to get on the same page here...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

:3

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

only that there's a dead trademark for Cougar and the Cub

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

i'm not even sure how it makes a difference

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

hahahaha cute

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

ahh didn't see it yet

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

the email he sent like 5 mins ago

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

wich one?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

oh okay i see

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

OMG dave's new email takes the cake for most arbitrary suggestion yet

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

light brown

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

because cougars are yellow-ish

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

ye with the darkblue she wouldn't be cougar

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

you mean the colors jason likes?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

what do you mean she could still be wonderkat?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

I want to leave the batman thing behind if possible

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

it pops

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

so am I

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

i've always been a sucker for orange, yellow, and brown

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

but this way she could still be wonderkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

I'm also more into the yellow

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

i'm still more into the orange and yellow but i likes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

that's pretty fun!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

female bodies just work differently

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

not even a question which one i prefer

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

lemme save these and smash 'em into one image

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

perfecto

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

the one in the Wonderkat costume would still be called Wonderkat the totally new one is a free for all

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

there we go

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

Kougar

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

Kouger

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

not Cougar or Louger

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

so anyway, what you're saying is that the new version, she could still be called Wonderkat

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

not great from a branding perspective

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

Cougar is especially simple

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

but i also get where he's coming from

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

his idea is sweet

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

he explained it all to me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

Rom fought energy vampires / parasites

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

it's a mashup of Rom: Space Knight and Witchblade

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

it's meant to be a call back to the bad girl era

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

witchblade

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

kind sorta not really

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

but vampblade is also a parody right?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

because i like jason a lot

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

i mean that in the nicest way

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

naming doesn't seem to be his strong suit

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

but also remember, this guy's potentially biggest creation to date is vampblade

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

adding kat to the end was such a nonsense suggestion that i just ignored it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

KougarKat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

or cougarkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

they's probably want her to be wonderkat

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

i actually thought she might still be Cougar

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

ah okay

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

oh that was just a joke!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

not wonderkitten

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

what?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

also she would still be wonderkat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I'll get on it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I'm super happy about it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

i mean, for real, though. your Cougar design is fucking brilliant

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

though, of course, i don't know that for a fact

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

i think a quick one could benefit the cause

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

I can try to do a quicky

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i've just noticed that they like to pounce on "polished" branding type of stuff even if it's not the best part of somerhing

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i could see it make one and could not see it making one

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

do you think it'll make a difference if the Cougar design is tightened up like the WonderKitty design?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

I hope they feel the same way

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

mail it

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

what do you think?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

there's a chance they'll feel the same way!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

so boring

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

just to fucking boring

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

but no

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

yeah......... great illustration work as always

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

sounds like a good plan

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

thoughts?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

then we'll go back over the wording for the email and get it right

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

then we'll decide if we want to include any other art with the email, like something with Cub

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

see how we feel with both versions in front of us

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

then lets talk about them

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

finish up the side-by-side cougars in color

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

here's what i think would be a good plan of action...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

okay

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

i'm just thinking that we may need to take the name completely off the table right away and see if we can make something else stick

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

it's fine I'm just grumpy

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

well lets improve it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

thats fine I guess

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

what i can say is something like "we never thought the name Wonderkat would hook you guys so much! just to give you some background on it, Wonderkat is a character that Daniel created many years ago. the character's original premise was pretty different from the superhero sex story. but we thought we would try to merge them for this pitch. in the process of evaluating things, we decided we might like this particular story better without him. and Daniel feels that if the character isn't in there, then he wants to save the name for a future story featuring that particular character. so with that said, we're interested in exploring titles or branding without Wonderkat. is that a deal breaker for you guys?"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

looking good to me so far!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

but i think you may need to explain that to them. i can try, but i would probably get it wrong.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

yeah, see, i think that's the main thing. and i'm fine with that!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

Wonderkat is my character if the chracter goes the name goes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

Lyger and Griffin

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

Kitty and Klawz

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

ooops not Walrus

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

Lion and Walrus

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

Tiger and Kheetah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

hhehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

Puma and Oscelot

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

and if one of them dies or retires, another cat character takes their place

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

it's less bad buttttt I stillw ant to use wonderkat for other stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

they're like a wholesome household name

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

the Wonderkats are having sex?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

so when they break up, it's like... THE WONDERKATS BROKE UP?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

booya

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

okay whaddababout change your title to Zombie Tramps

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

but everyone knows them as the Wonderkats!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

they can be Kougar and Kub

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Wonderkats is a team name!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

okay so to play devil's advocate (basically saying i don't necessarily agree with this... i'm just attempting to argue their side)...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

It's like "Nice work Daniel BUT we need an extra unnecessary S"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

it's just to stupid the extra S adds nothing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

hahaha no also x-men and stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

what do you dislike the most about making Wonderkats plural?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

probably teen titans go? or soemthing like that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

I don't want annyone to think I added the S in anyway

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

your generation

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

i dunno what it would be for our generation, but for mine it was the TMNT video game and the X-Men show

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

WonderkatS is a dealbreaker for me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

they're both 40ish and Super Friends was like THE superhero thing back in the day

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

hahaha I just hate wonderkats

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

so this is like naughty Super Friends

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

i think maybe the reason they like Wonderkats so much is because it reminds them of Super Friends and the Wonder Twins

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

that's also how i feel

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

i understand that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

the thing is we don't earn much so I don't want to compremise much

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

but developing something for them based on what they want seems to me like something we could do for someone else who's better! with that said, it's not like we have any options for that at the moment.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

it would still have to be something we could get excited about but we would have more of a target

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

for me, the appeal was that we could tell the kind of story we want to tell and have it fucking printed and put in comic shops. we might not make much and we might have to deal with their occasionally bad editorial taste, but at least the shit is out there.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

i'm not against that. not jazzed about it either, but maybe i could get into that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

if this would be spiderman I wouldn't care

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

haha yeah i know what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

then I don't care so much?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

not bad

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

ye or see if we have something laying around

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

Ohhhhh you mean build a new story around something they'd like to see?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

see if we can fill a hole they feel they have

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

more like wadda ya lookin for

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

not completely following your last statement. you mean say to them "what would sell?"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

i think the perfect art to convince them would be the side-by-side i mentioned and then maybe something of the new Cougar and Cub as you originally envisioned next to each other. just to show how they would look.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

if they want something they feel they could sell we could ask them what they think they could sell and try to make that work for us thats fine for me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

yeah, i feel the same way.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

and I'd like it to be this story but if it isn't right it isn't right

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

they were just inspired by taking another look at the story.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

i'm fine with any decision that you make! we can always go shop around the new version somewhere else! none of these changes are actually based on their suggestions.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

I want to do another book with them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

I understand that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

personally, i think the big thing here is that jason and dave both want this to sell. they might have ideas that make us go "meh" but it's not like they're actively trying to fuck it up. they just might not get our vision yet.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

look i'll do it but if it's worse and they like it I'm out

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

might

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

he

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

but i say give him what he wants. when he sees them next to each other, me might be like "ohhhh your new design is better"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

hahaha pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

it would be catwoman with underwear on the outside

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

yeah, i'm sure it would be similar

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

i think it might be worth doing two sketches of Cougar and putting them next to each other -- one in her new costume and one in a Wonderkat style costume

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

I just hate WonderkatS

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

my general feeling is that i want to tell this wacky ass story about a superhero sleeping with her sidekick and then trying to figure out a way to repair the social and emotional damage caused by the poor decision. the title matters to me, but your passion for the title is more important to me than my own preferences.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

it's all branding, but that's what it's about

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

I don't even think 90% of the jokes are funny

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

the only reason that exists is because the title is sellable

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

I'm not against branding thats why I created ZombieHipsters

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

but with that said, i'm thinking maybe there's something we can learn here. not that Jason and Dave have lit the world on fire with their branding so far, but it's gotten them to a place where they can reject or accept our story!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

honestly it might just be the Wonderkats thing that makes everything worse for me

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

we just want a good fucking story and a title that clearly represents the story. that's why we never considered wonderkat.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

you and i, we're a lot less interested in the branding

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

i think wonderkats is sticking so much because it feels brandable to them. they can make a nifty logo and put it on stuff. i mean, that's what these guys do... mix story with branding

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

I've tried to work like this a couple of times those books never came to be, even tough I understand that this should be the right way to work

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

I know

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

this is new ground for me, working with a third party to make a story appeal to them. i'm used to showing up to the party with everything ready to go. so it's all a bit new to me.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

i guess i'm largely indifferent in terms of my opinion. but what i care about is that this stuff is zapping your enthusiasm and you're not interested in these changes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

personally, i didn't have a strong opinion either way. i think the simple "Cougar and Cub" is a better title, especially because the innuendo is clear. i don't think any visual changes will improve the character, necessarily. but i'm also not against seeing how they might look.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

I'd love to be talked of this ledge

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

how do you feel about this?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

but now they ask us to make it worse again

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

yes I loved their input it was awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

i was just saying this to kelly last night in an email... "I think we're more happy with this story, yeah. It's interesting because the changes we've made would probably help us if we were pitching it to another publisher BUT the only reason the changes happened is because of the input / questions from our Action Lab contacts."

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

do you mean the title?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

I just think the direction his email pushes it in is not what it could be

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

it's weird how they like it so much. probably a mistake but... how would we have known?!?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

so in regards to your excitement, which is really the paramount thing i'm concerned about here, i want to help it get to maximum levels. i want you to be so enthusiastic about this that you're fucking drawing the craziest and most rewarding shit you've ever drawn.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

I feel like they'll never let that part go

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

yeah might have been a mistake for us to do that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

GODDAMN FAKE COVERS

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

it also tells you nothing about the book

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

it's a fun superhero name, but as a book title it doesn't wow me. i'm more excited by Wonderkat than Wonderkats

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

It sucks

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

hahaha yeah him and Dave are especially hung up on the Wonderkats name... not sure why exactly...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

plus the idea of the multiples title (WonderkatS) is driving me a bit insane

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

He doesn't seem te understand it or something so he wants to neuter it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

I feel like when we pitched it initially(to AL) I was 50% excited about. Which is fine when we would get back into it I would have loved working on it. But our new ideas got me 95% excited, I haven't been excited about anything this much since we finished Holy F*ck. I feel what he's asking us to do is gonna bring it back to 55%

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

OKAY! i read it. so now i'll know everything you're referring to. plzzzzz tell me more about how you're feeling!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

well, i'm gonna dive in and read it. no matter what, my #1 priority is making sure that you feel happy with the stories we're telling so i got yer back.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

of me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

I mean I don't think you've seen this side

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

I am probably over reacting but it's because I care I don't think you've ever had me be like this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

kind of afraid to read it...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

i haven't read the email yet... just saw the first few words and i was like "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and decided to see what you had to say first. this must really be bad!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

I don't like that my reaction is so extreme I'm sorry for that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

I am soo excited about our idea that him asking for these changes is genuinely upsetting me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

it doesn't seem a right fit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

Right now.... I don't want to do this story with them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

Fuck. I don't like Jason

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

YESSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

hahahaha okay okay it's fine

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

i actually read up on cougars a bunch and they're the closest big cats to domesticated house cats. they can't even roar -- they only purr.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

i was like "okay, Cougar... still a cat... we can keep the Cat Hole!"

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

OMG no pleeez i love the Cat Hole!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

allright then I'm off to school

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

we should probabablt change the cathole aswell but thats no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

yeuh!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

in the folder

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

hey that's cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

i will

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

I really dig it too all my little doubts are gone

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

i guess Google Drive doesn't automatically do that

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

nope

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

I DUNNO!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

i don't think so?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

did you put in the the One Night stand folder?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

i'm feeling this, man. a lot more than ONS despite the tiny changes

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

cool thx

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

hehehehe good names

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

AND HIS ARMY OF EVIL ALTAR BOYS!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

oh and Father Fornicator hahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

i think that's probably the biggest change we haven't already discussed

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

Minerva Manx is the name i was going with

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

but that's shared too

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

i haven't tweaked the detailed outline yet

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

but the new treatment is shared with you

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

i dunno if google drive sent you an email about the new documents i made

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

groovaay

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

keep it simple

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

I think it's fine like this

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

anything i should add?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

Here's a look at Daniel's design for the Courageous Cougar! While the Cougar is a pretty big visual departure from our original hero, Wonderkat, the plan is to generally keep Cub the same as his teen predecessor, Kidkat. I've also attached a revised synopsis for Cougar and Cub. It's basically the same plot outline as before, only with updated character names and a few tweaked details. What would you guys like to see next?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

k sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

but basically the same

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

basically I think I'm putting him in a cougar print unitard and changing his haircut a little bit

Nick MarinoThursday, June 4, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

BTW, were you still planning on Cub having the same look as Kidkat? I'm writing the email and I wanted to check on that detail!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

i'm gonna email this stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

sooooo yeah i guess that's it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:53pm PDT

oooook

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:49pm PDT

also you can send over the pinup whenever

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

yay postitiveness

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

tahts pretty good I like it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:48pm PDT

as for adjectives, i've been weighing options and my favorite combinations are "The Courageous Cougar and The Cunning Cub"

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:47pm PDT

"Cougar" isn't currently trademarked for any books or comic books.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:47pm PDT

did a quick trademark search. "Cougar and Cub" isn't being used by any business.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

great subject line!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

i'll revise our plots / synopsis to reflect the changes and i'll have that ready for you when you wake up.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

i just sent them that inquiry

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

k sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

lemme email you the big one and then I'm off to bed

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

gorgeous!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

http://danielarrudamassa.nl/pinup01small.jpg

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

agreed. i'm definitely feeling this angle more.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

I think this is gonna be awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

what do you think?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

i was trying to figure out why i liked the first one more! haha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

i prefer it with them, actually

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

without the highlights tough right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Awesome work

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

I love it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Really makes the whole thing gel

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

That shading is diggity dope

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

yesh ask

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

in fact, dave just emailed us... i could ask him what they'd like to see

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

and ask them if they'd like to see more

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

along with a revised plot

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

or maybe we send them this sketch along with a shot of just Cougar and Cub next to each other

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

maybe we give them a new fake cover, with Cougar and Cub on it and persuade them that way?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

even though they weren't a part of our story

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

but they also really focused on the fake covers

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

so your Cougar drawing is great. it;s got action, wackiness, and attutude

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

2. giving them presentation-focused art

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

1. presenting a solid template for the story via plot synopsis

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

i think maybe based upon their reactions, what might convince them the most are...

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

that's a great question

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

like this isn't a complete cold pitch

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

what is the least we can do?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

ehm well I feel like they know us and stuff sooooo

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

k cool. do you think we should redo the scene from our pitch? or would you rather take a different approach?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

I'm gonna try a little shading :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

so what's next?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

yes it does

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

but i think is fucking really popping nice

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

i still think solid color might give it more of that silver age feel

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

blue it is

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

hahaha okay then

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

i'm definitely feeling this

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

OHHHHH that blue whak really pops!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

I don't think we need blue

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

cool. i also think this would look great with a solid color background

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

lemme try something

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

since's there's no blue in there

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

what about blue in place of yellow?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

in the gradiant in the background...

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

well i'm feeling it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

NICE

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

I like this

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

i think the gold and orange are perfect for Cougar. like that pair's so well with her overall look

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

how do you feel about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

yep, definitely doing it for me more!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I'm fucking loving Cougar's colors!!! I kinda miss the old Miss Chievous ones, though.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

I feel like I want to do some color redering or something

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

pffff it's more a taste thing than anything else

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

cool. is it worth deleting it? i dunno how this stuff works exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

it's becuase of the paragraph break

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

not sure if that's a standard thing or just a result of the line break

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

i dunno a ton about magazine layout

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

it sits one line lower than the column next to it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

nooooo

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

one tiny thing i noticed was the second column on the 3rd page

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

looks fantastic!!!!!!!! thanks :D

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

understandable

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

they kinda toe the line but stick to 14+ stuff, not 17+

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

we're a bit too MR for them, though.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

i'd be glad to flat it for you, though it would probably take me an hour. is that too long?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

i think it should be pretty fucking tight after this

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

emailed you a few typo corrections, tweaks, and additions to you

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

cewl

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

ALSO... maybe we can use the Muhammad thing in the back of #2 so that drawing won't go to waste

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

cool I'm gonna do some drawing

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

but overall i'm really feeling it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i'm gonna do a super thorough read through for any typos or tweaks

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

i think this is looking really good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

fair point

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

but i'm certainly not against it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

but i

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

not bad. i guess for me, if we're not using wonderkat, i'd rather just see her on her own terms.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

or something actually funny

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

hehehe thats cool other idea wonderkat with the text: "Move over wonderkat. The Cougar is in tha house"

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

:D

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

not saying it has to be like that, it's just what i see in my mind

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

hmmm maybe punching Miss Chievous because she'll have such a great expression getting punched, like the classic "cuckoo" stars and birds kinda thing!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

hehe thats cool anything or anyone in particular?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

i'd love to see her in action, being tough

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

i guess punching

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

is there anything you would like to see The Cougar do?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

ofcourse!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

could you email plz??? facebook degrades the quality so its hard for me to read em

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

brb

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

also, i noticed the thing at the bottom of page three had an extra "IN" added between the exclamations

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

yeuh

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

SENT!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

I'm thinking how I should do the , The Cougar piece

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

just do everything in an email like these last edits

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

it leads into your speed addiction nicely

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

ye is cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

im gonna add back in some of the broadway stuff, i think. that okay?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

I'll wait then :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

actually, i might cut that entire paragraph! hahahaa

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

same paragraph as detrimental in the corrections

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

just noticed.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

oh shit typewriter is spelled wrong too

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

yesh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

it only needs to be about 3-4 paragraphs

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i'm gonna figure out the best passage to re-add.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

i sent you the super minimal corrections BTW. no need to send them back or anything

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

and i appreciate that! it's not a bad option. i just think we've got a special thing going with this particular back matter and i'd love to maximize that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

thats cool with me I just like to give options

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

hahaha yeah i know we could fit one in but unless you're super in love with the idea, i'd rather add some of our text back

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

hehehe it was a placeholder but sure

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

you want to add an old topless webcomic to the final page?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

hahahahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

gimme a sec

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

so one of the things we could do is

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

and I'll show you what happends when I delete it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

ehm right now moveing just wouldn't quite work

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

i think the fisting quote should stay and the speed quote should definitely move to pg 3 or just get deleted. you?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

i caught a few tiny typo thingies, so i'm gonna mark those up and send them to you. then i'll take a look at what could be put back into the pages.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

a little bit

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

i think we could add back a bit of the content.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

I thought so

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

my revisions deleted more than i expected!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

BUT if we have more space and you'd like to do a quick cartoon of something that would be cool too

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

if we remove 1 of the quotes from page 2 it'll leave to much space on page 3

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

I did it quickly keep that in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

little tweaks here and there maybe but we don't really have to treat her differently

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

downloading the back matter now

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

great.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

so am I

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

i'm cool with the same personality and backstory

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

okay, sure whatever you're down for. as far as i'm concerned in terms of character, really all we need to do is gender swap her with Wonderkat.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

ehm I feel if we have one cool piece we could share it with them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

I've mailed you a quick revision of the back matter and I'll do a piece with the cougar tonight

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

so yeah where are we at on this?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

oh well

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

hahahaha he would

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

i feel like if we put Wonderkat in the story, he should totally hit on Cub hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

from the limited research i've done

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

i think cub is a sex joke name

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

I said we would have given a dude a sex joke name

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

not sleazy

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

also, the way we portray her will be fucking dignified

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

ummmm YEAH

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

she hates the name but that just because she doen't think we would have given a dude a sex joke name

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

Amanda doesn't hate it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

naturally

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

el cougeratcha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

but i'm not closed off to it either :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

personally, i don't see the need for an adjective in the title at the moment

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

yeah The Cougar works

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

and in the title the courage cougar

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

we can just call het THE COUGAR

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

i think as long as we slap an adjective on the front of her name, that'll differentiate her enough. i mean Rob's shit is basically Wolverine anyway

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

we shouldn't worry about it to much

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

yeah it's totes cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

also, there's nothing illegal about using the same name again, especially if he's never trademarked it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

so she could be The Courageous Cougar

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

The Coug

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

because he's amde everything

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

I think the trick is to give her a longer name than just Cougar, but to keep the title "Cougar and Cub"

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

HOW COME EVERYTHING I DO IS A RIPOFF OF ROB LIEFELD?!?!?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar_%28comics%29

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:40am PDT

emailing you my edits for the backmatter now

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:40am PDT

i know you will

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:36am PDT

I gotta go to school but I'll come up with somethin fun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

OMG perfect

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:29am PDT

I'm playing around a bit with cub so that kidkat can become one of his class mates

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

okay i'm making edits to the backmatter now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

i love that it's just a giant baby who does nithing

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:18am PDT

oh that's better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:17am PDT

Diaper Rash

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:16am PDT

ehmm lemme look

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

i think that was the name

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

hahaha and Big Baby stays exactly the same, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

I like

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

;)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

nice

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

ohh

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

and his henchmen can be alter boys

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

maybe the Virgin Mary can be a Priest instead

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

i'm thinking Norm can be a dude

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

obviously the villains you've already drawn on the covers should stay as is

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

yeah works for me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

I think cougar is pretty much gonna look like he sketch and Cub is gonna look like kidkat

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

not really no

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

but really nothing much changes as far as i'm concerned

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

i think once you've nailed down the visuals i'll be really stoked to go in and tweak our plot / treatment stuff to make it all fit.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:11am PDT

like never say it but make the reader feel it

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:11am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

ye now we can just mix it but make it feel she slept with all of them

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

also, what do you think about having some dude / some chick villains? i kinda dig that mixed approach.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

she's still boinking someone she shouldn't but het sexuallity is her own

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

it still is naughty

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

just naughty

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

offensive

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

i mean, not necessarily

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:08am PDT

as long as its still inappropriate, i'm in

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:06am PDT

I personally think this way it could actually be considered a "Feminist super hero story"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

she's in school but I send the design to her

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

sure, let's get her approval!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:03am PDT

in the claws of the cougar

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:03am PDT

I kinda need Amanda not to hate it tough :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:02am PDT

I"M INTO THIS

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:02am PDT

cub would pretty much be kidkat

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

just a little shading :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

yesh yesh yesh

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

and she's brown!!! very excellent

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

ohhhhh that's nice!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

derp

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

like, specifically "Cougar and Cub" isn't used

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

but not exactly

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

so a quick search revealed that Cougar and Cub is the name of a few ebooks

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

whoa

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:56am PDT

I'n 2 min I have some colors :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

i'm feeling it!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

k sending now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

yes!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:47am PDT

hey, the feedback and suggestions we got from you guys have given us a lot of food for thought. combined with our own desires to nail down the best story and title possible, daniel and i are interested in tweaking our pitch. so if it's cool with you guys, we'd like to hold off on showing the pages we've already sent you to anyone else at ALE. we're thinking three words... "Cougar and Cub". we'll be in touch with you about this very soon. thanks again for all of your ideas!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

k so maybe i;ll say

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

on sharing the pages yet

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

okay, i should probably email them and tell 'em to hold off

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

I like this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

not at al

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

Cougar and Cub isn't a bad title either

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

thats some mighty fine inspiriation

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:41am PDT

I would base her costume on this:

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

okay, i like that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

sweet I'm into this

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

well thats for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

sounds wrong and all of that good stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

yeah it does work well

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

Cougar and Cub sounds pretty good to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

ohhhhh

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

it would be too much to make her the Cougar, huh?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

but of course you have a good point

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

oh i just met changing gender at all

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

I think female younger is to much becuase our culture

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

fine with me

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

okay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

are you thinkining you prefer the female older hero?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

I think you could move the broadway thing to the second story.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

nah but seriously

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

i'm just looking for a way to make the concept as catchy as possible

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

but thats sorta the last thing im concerned about

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

i mean, the main thing it does is switch things up for us in terms of "gay surprise!"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

both are fine but then we kinda have to come up with new superheroes and shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

out of two ladies or one lady one dude

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

okay cool to me it's to rape-y

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

yeah well personally wonderkat as male and kidkat as female seemed like the least interesting scenario to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

so wonderkat would have to be a lady

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

ehm if wonderckat would be the male and kidkat the female it's a whole other story

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

or one guy and one gal

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

if it were two women

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 3, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

HAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:47pm PDT

this make me about 10% excited

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:46pm PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:46pm PDT

so with this project, they know the story will deliver but they're trying to figure out how they would package it. but they're not us! so their ideas, while fine, don't match the tone of the story which, admittedly, they don't fully understand just from five pages and a plot synopsis.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT

nah but i think the general hang up is that Jason and Dave are publishers at heart and the packaging of the book is on their minds from the get go.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT

Hero F*ck

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

it works on a totally different level

let's just call it Holy F*ck again

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

to me it just seems not comital

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

I don't get the crossed out thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

but it's not story specific

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

i like the playfulness of the crossed out justice tails

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

I feel the same

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

not rocking my world

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

justice tails or tails of justice are both okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

wonderkats seems to lack that playfulness

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

ofcourse

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

IMO the more innuendo, the better.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

I still think wonderkatS is stoopid there is only one wonderkat in the book

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

mja I got nothing that I'm more excited about that justice tails

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:37pm PDT

that's cool. to be honest with you, i'm fine with anything. whatever you prefer is okay with me.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

JUSTICE TAILS is fine I just don't get the crossing out part

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

I have no idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

Wonderkat in a titillating tale of super suspense presents "A nightly discretion"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

sorry

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

focused

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:22pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:18pm PDT

I think the crossing out is a little dumb

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

Yeah I mean for me the big thing is the story. I'm open to what ever title. One night stand is limited to just the one story, so I get why it's not perfect.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 1, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:35am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:35am PDT

When do you get back from class?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:35am PDT

I dunno how good the Skype would be

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

But this also means I might be available earlier. No Wi-Fi here... just my phone.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

Yeah no big deal I'm just kidding forward to it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

oh that sucks but we can do it any other day it's no biggie

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:32am PDT

My flight got cancelled and I'm still in Phoenix. I leave tomorrow (maybe, if I'm not delayed) at the time of our call

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

One problem about our Skype call tomorrow though

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, June 1, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

The sketches and the colored armor are fucking so good!!!!!! Love em.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

getting back into the character!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

okay I have a stupid crazy idea what If we turn the ONS story into a 3 issue arc and try to come up with 2 more stories turn those into 3 issue arcs Then if we plan it out right it would feel like a semi ongoing for almost a year

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

yeuh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

K it's a plan Stan

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 8:10am PDT

7.30 would most likely work

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

Cool. What's best for you? I can do as early as 7 your time. Anything then or after works for me.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 7:15am PDT

skypin tomorrow is cool! no problemo

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 7:14am PDT

Well frankly I'm really glad that those concerns are on your mind. One of the reasons why I love collaborating with you is because you're so thoughtful and conscious of the deeper meaning behind the crazy themes we work with. I'm looking forward to getting this pitch emailed to them and seeing what everyone else (mostly Jason, I imagine) has to say about it. I also like your philosophy of let's fucking keep working with them while we continue to pitch everywhere. I agree that my annoyance is higher and yeah like I said I have some new info now that gives me a more understanding perspective. Also, I randomly got invited to be on a religion in comics panel at San Diego. It's the Thursday of the convention at 2pm. Hopefully we can get you a badge from ALE so you can be in there with me and I can pull you up on stage. I'll let you know more about it when I know more! Anyway, I'll be home late tonight and back to regular work tomorrow. When would you like to Skype? I could speak as soon as tomorrow morning (tomorrow night for you) if you want. But I'm cool with waiting a day or two as well. Whatever you prefer.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 31, 2015 at 2:01am PDT

Let’s do this shit! We can talk bout the title I’m totally open for anything and keeping the world open for more stories. I’m not surprised that they are basically volunteers and that’s fine. I’m also cool with basically sticking with them(with other words: Pitching shit everywhere while doing AL books). I think your annoyance with AL was and is way bigger than mine anyways. Yay! some bigger names, this might help AL become more of a stage and shit like that. I totally trust you on my concerns. There concerns are not deal breakers for me, They also have become bigger in my head due to the fact that we were not actively working on it. ALF!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 9:42pm PDT

I shared it with Dave and he liked it a lot. Though it's not totally up to him, he felt it would be a shoe-in with Danger Zone. He suggested that we email him and Jason the PDFs this week. I mentioned the idea of aging KidKat but Dave felt the story worked better with the way that the character is drawn right now, especially if we make it a point to constantly have everyone saying that KidKat is 18. Ya know, so it becomes a running joke throughout the issues. He also felt it might work better as "The Wonderkats" and then just make our story (or first volume, if this is something we could potentially do more of) "One Night Stand". So with all that said, I think the big thing it comes down to is this... do we want to work with Action Lab more. I've learned A LOT about the company this weekend. Like crazy tons. First off, none of the company people get paid. Bryan, Jason, Dave, Kevin, Shawn G, Jamal, etc... they're all working for company shares. And though the company made $400,000 in the first quarter of this year, all of that is basically going right back into the company again. So personally that gives me a new perspective on things in terms of the stuff that they could be doing better. They're basically all volunteers right now. Most of the stuff that we think Action Lab has done well? Pretty much all that is stuff Dave has lobbied for over the years (including Holy F*ck). The stuff we think is dumb or sloppy? Well, probably Bryan, who's the through and through businessman of the bunch. Also, dude, Holy F*ck... people are really feeling it at this show. Tons. They love your art. It's selling decently and the TPB in particular really did it for people. People want to know more because it feels fresh, it's really fucking risky, and it's weird. All kinds of people too. Very diverse customers. Lots of non-comics readers too. So pros of doing Action Lab again in my mind? Working with a growing publisher who's in the top 10-20 in the biz, Dave and Jason who have our backs, and getting our fucked up comics into comic shops. Cons? Occasional sloppiness with marketing and production, some last minute-ness with covers and printing, and a company that's probably not paying out much in profit at the moment (though they're finally starting to make some good money). I think Danger Zone's profile is about to rise a bit as well. Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Grey are doing a Full Moon book. Tim Seeley is too. (BTW my Dollman pitch is a no-go... they'd rather do a Dollman Kills the Full Moon-verse story.) So anyway, yeah I think there are good and bad things to working with them again, which I told Dave and he agreed! Shit, he's been considering trying out some other publishers for his new books too. But it's also a cool situation because this company is fine with edgier, more out-there stuff and they're interested in working with us again... maybe even taking some chances and doing bigger things to promote the book. As to your concerns, I think they're incredibly valid. But I do still feel that 1. our first instincts tend to be right, and 2. we can actually turn KidKat's appearance into a fun story point if we approach it thoughtfully and with a good sense of humor. As for trivializing homosexuality, that's an extremely important concern to me. I personally think that really comes down to our execution. These are characters who have a sexual encounter which just happens to be gay. I see us having the ability to portray it as co-workers who had sex that complicated they're working relationship, not two people who had naughty gay sex. Making a point of that in the dialogue could potentially be another strong recurring joke. I've had gay customers think the Jesus and Satan thing is fucking rad at this show. They dig it. In general, they've just been excited about the batshit craziness of our ideas and pleased with our execution. Also, Dave loved the idea of you and I doing an ALF story, so he and I might try to open up a line of communication for that again. But I'm sure no matter what happens with that, it would be a long way off.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

alll this said I think it still a fun and funny idea

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 3:40pm PDT

1. The pedophilia aspect. Just sayin' he's 18+ doesn't really quite do it because people know. 2.Trivialising sexuality. I think the story is funny but it could be viewed as making fun of gay people.... we already use homosexuality in a similar way in Holy F*ck and I think doing "the same thing" right after might work against us.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

I didn't want to bring it up till when we would have a skype talk BUT my feelings around ONS have changed a bit. There are a couple of point that make we want to not push it hard. But lets be clear: If someone wants to publish it I'll still draw it.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

buh-bye

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

sweet

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:23am PDT

K gotta go.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Oh and Stique loved it too. She really dug the Anansi thing on the last page.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Also, Holy F*cked feedback from Kelly: "Holy Fucked is looking great! I still love the hell out of that first giant cock page. I showed that page to Adam and he laughed hysterically. Have I mentioned yet that I love how you do sound effects with the often literal words "Trick" "Land" "Cheers" "Applause" "Throw" they all make me laugh. Favorite panel (after the giant cock of course) is probably Hercules jiggling the keys out of Jesus' pocket. The new apostles are great. Too bad you killed them all! Though I respect your commitment to killing characters. Anyway, looks great. Congratulations! One thing - you should say Hercules name sooner - maybe in that first scene with the spider - it's a really long time until you actually say it. I assumed cause I know a bit about mythology and that plus the belt buckle means it's pretty easy to guess who he is, but in a book this direct, I think you should just say it outright."

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

yeah thats smart thinking

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

dunno that yet but well talk about that at a later point in time

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:21am PDT

With Avatar, since they're so unlikely anyway, I might wait until the end to see what I have left.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:21am PDT

Like a Nightwing parody instead of Robin?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:21am PDT

yeah! show it to avatar! they'll probably think my style is to cartoony but why not give it a shot!?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

Hahahahana! Not a bad idea.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:20am PDT

I wanted to talk to you about this later but I would also be intrested in making a story that doesn't imply pedopilia with the ONS characters

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:19am PDT

K cool. Avatar is here too... Wondering if maybe I should give them Holy F*ck and mention that we'd be interested in pitching, I feel like Super Serious could work well there MAYBE.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

sure! why not

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:18am PDT

So far it seems like Dave's a lot less of a dick than I thought. Been learning a ton from him. Do ya think I should show him the One Night Stand pitch? Not necessarily for ALE, but just in general. I mean, it could be that he likes it for ALE... or could not.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:16am PDT

that would be sweet

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

Might be worth making a print of it (or asking Action Lab if they want to do that).

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Been talking a ton about our collaboration and your awesome art. People LOVE the Jesus skateboard cover and banner.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:14am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:13am PDT

Yo bro!!! Super positive response to Holy F*ck so far in Phoenix. I came with 9 tpbs and between 20-14 copies of each issue (fucking Diamond never shipped my new order in time). There's a good chance we'll sell out.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

or just do nothing for a month

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

i mean i kinda feel like there are a zillion other cool things you could do

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

and then we have two open pitches if Oni rejects it

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

another option is to do sample pages for the Brain Bash pitch

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

ya know............

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

Holy F*cked is pretty much Post-production now same goes for my brothers comic

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

cool works for me! sending

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

but I like the contrast of teh yellow

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

also fine

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

send that shit

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

good

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

I'm fine with this if you are

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

k email is ready to go once we figure out the caption colors!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

food time

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

to make it feel a bit more solid

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

red

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

which one? the red or white one?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

there probably fine but you could change the outest outlines to black

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

caption colors?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

good thinking

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

my suggestion is to resize by pixels instead of percents or whateves

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

whatever our next thing is I'll try to make sure this kinda crap doen't happen again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

or make it 100.01%

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

but i can probably just copy one pixel of the blue and make it fit

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

it is too small

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

i lied

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

nope

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

BECAUSE of the trade dress!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

3) would you like us to move one page of this current backmatter to issue #2?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

2) yeah, Daniel's done and now it's up to my slow ass to letter it

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

so 1) here's a color comparison and, while i dig the trade dress homage idea because it's fun, i like the new dress on it. through in some compliment to make him feel good about himself and also so we never have to hear about changing the trade dress again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

mokidoki

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

loadowning

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

yeah, agreed about the backmatter

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

okay I agree

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

trimming is easy we can just bump one on the story things to the next one

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

too much work for something that's not that cool

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

i dont wanna do it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

also the cover dress thing

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

yeah i mean it's not a problem to trim a page... i'm sure we could make it work

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

3A whatever :P we can't do anything now

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:08am PDT

it's not quite right but I'll get there

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 24, 2015 at 2:39am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

i think i got it:

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

ideas?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

i need a better joke here...

Nick MarinoSunday, May 24, 2015 at 12:12am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:54pm PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:36pm PDT

when we have our skype talky talk we should talk about the eerie or ceepy thing again

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:35pm PDT

NIGHT NIGHT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:35pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:35pm PDT

dont get me wrong... i have my own explotational artists i dig

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

Amanda just came home sooo I'm gonna go to bed soon

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:34pm PDT

hehehe yeah oh well I think He's amazing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

sometimes i like it more when other people use his style, though

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

but i love his style

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

fair point on the Brice Timm stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

the problem with sticking with a AL for to long is that it's easy to get stuck.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

i think because the women are mostly eye candy

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

when he's the one drawing his own stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:33pm PDT

Bruce Timm is a bit on the exploitative side

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

I think Amanda makes it all a bit more complicated for me. She thinks Bruce Timm is to sexist. Yes we have to get away

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

HAHAHAHA

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

hopes a dreams

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

'

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

i might be crazy thinking that. but it feels like that shitty little smal town in a movie where the main character has "big city

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:32pm PDT

i feel like we NEED to get away from Action Lab stat.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:31pm PDT

ugh it's difficult

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:29pm PDT

yeah I get that

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:29pm PDT

to me

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:29pm PDT

its more the image of the book that's sleazy

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

well i think the content kinda speaks for itself. the stories are just cheeky goofy things

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

same I would also have to Justify it to Amanda I think

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:28pm PDT

it's like one hair off of Zenoscope

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:27pm PDT

to me it's one of those things like i'll not close myself off to it but i'm not gonna chase it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:27pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:27pm PDT

ah cool In the super hypothetical world I think I would be most interested in doing a short backup thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:26pm PDT

he published it before danger zone was a thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:26pm PDT

and he's the one who really shepherded the book

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:26pm PDT

cowriter

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:25pm PDT

cuz jason's the cowrite

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:25pm PDT

why would it offend Jason?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

he wanted to put Holy F*ck logos all over the issues but i think *i hope* i was able to play it off

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

i'm not gonna do it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

so until he;s like DUDE I NEED A SCRIPT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:24pm PDT

he had extended the offer to me but i decided not to actively pursue it because meh it's zombie tramp and i also think it might offend jason, who strikes me as a bit sensitive

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

JK

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

i'll just email him right now then...

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

hahahaha nice

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:22pm PDT

your issue I would draw

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:22pm PDT

my stance on Zombie Tramp has significantly shifted based upon 1. Dan and 2. the way people react to it. is it for everyone? no. but there are a lot of fans out there... surprisingly diverse too, actually. many women. is it something i would ever create myself? no. but would i write an issue? probably.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

I don't think I'd ever do anything Zombie Tramp related

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

My whoring out has some limits tough

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

integrity and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

i have to be convinced to whore out msot of the time

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

that quality will serve you well

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

unless it conflicts with the core concept of the comic

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

hahahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

but I just want to be clear that I'm always cool with whoring out

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

I totally agree with you

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

2. i don't think it's worth it unless they ask for them

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

and

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

1. that doesn't change the fact that it's kinda shady as a business thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

BUT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

i think a variant is a guarantee boost

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

dunno what that means

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

i think it has a bassline effect on order numbers

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

Because IF it actually helps I'd totally think up another theme to make covers of

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

mja

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

to make up for the lower profit margin

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

i think that's why they're priced different

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

so unless you sell above a certain amount of variants you actually lose money

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

what I was thinking is printing a smaller amount of a cover costs moe than printing a bigger amount

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

says the guy who doesn't know

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

i doubt it costs them much more

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

but what about printing them?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

and they sell them for a $1 more

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

because they don't pay us

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

not really

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

but doesn't it also cost $$$?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

I'd do variants I just don't know why we would have em

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

do you think jason will ask you to do variants?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

but I don't want variants :P

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

yeah for a variant I would be 100% for it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

if we were doing that

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

saga one would be amazing for a #4 varint

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

But I like pushing away the responsibility

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

but i think considering the saga one is good too

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

probably yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

it's a good match

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

right now my gut says it'll be the daredevil cover

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

yesh I hope so

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

i think we've got a clever cross section of stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

good work

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

k i will

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

because i hate daredevil

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

I might

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

but i think that really is just me

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

ok send that too then :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

though i dunno if i would recognize the homage

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

there is no rooftop swinging in #1

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

i like

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

yup

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

not really

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

but it does seems to fit best thematically the more i consider it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

just not sure if it matters at all

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

with that said, i don't give a shit about the cover not matching

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

my rewrite even has a joke that's like "there, that should hold you for a couple of decades

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

you can change the text to two enter one leaves

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

not really

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

OR DOES HE?!?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

my only thing is that herc doesn't die

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

that's cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

like jesus in the background?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

could work now that I think about it again

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

the last one is fine I've looked at it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

i love that text

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

doesn't quite do it for me

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

ehm

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

but my gut says it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

dunno why

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

i feel like we need one more suggestion in this email

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

but that's too tricky

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

i was thinking maybe somehow we could homage the wolverine picture frame meme

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

it won't work

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

OH wait... one more

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

cute but it defeats the purpose of the homage thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

and herc is like "how can i resist Jammers tasty fruity filling!"

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

but Maria is like "hercules, if you stop trying to kill jesus, i'll give you a delicious fruit pie

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

hahaha I don't know what this is

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

not an exact image-for-image thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

we do a hostess comics pardoy cover

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

one more idea...

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

ugh I need a good picture or drawing of me for a convention thingy

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

yeppers

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

partially due to the #1-3 covers being so strong on the homage front

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

the fact that the homage value is low makes it hard for me to give it a full yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

personally, i like the image

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

i will totally support you if you decide that's the one you want

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

and the joke value is low

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

but i think the homage value is low

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

i agree it's by far the best designed image of the ones we've discussed

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

well here;s my thought on it...

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

I think the lack of reference makes it weaker but I like the image

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

I don't know

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

damn it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

no

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

yes or n

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

maybe kinda I think

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

so do i say warzone is your favorite?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

yeah they are equally random

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

more of an in-joke, really

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

and the jetski is just as obscure

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

but that's just me, not other people

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

my only beef with war zone is that i would never know the homage

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

I think

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

I think the warzone might be mine :P

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

you have been officially warned

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

maria dodging bombs

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

that cover is already its own parody, honestly

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

jesus holding a log in front of maria's crotch?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

the jerk one is not quite strong enough

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

MARIA: ALONE!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

her slapping herc

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

herc in the background

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

okay, here's another idea... an iconic panel

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

ditto

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

but I'd rather have more Maria les herculese

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

i love the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

I like this one with maria hitting herc...

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

I'm not

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

the other idea im really feeling is that unpublished batgirl cover

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

that said I still haven't found anything that makes me go yes

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

yes it is

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

well that's a good fucking point

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

I could also have her replace a man

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

the woman aspect is not important really

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

it's kinda sad that there aren't as many iconic superhero comic book covers feature women

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

i dig that one

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

I'll most likely go with the elektra cover

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

i'm fine with whatever. my only suggestion is run it by jason before you draw it!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I'm looking at #4 cover options again

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

k bye

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:06pm PDT

I' know the saying

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:06pm PDT

people say it here all of the time even though it makes no sense

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:06pm PDT

have you read that hot cakes saying before?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

oh! I never knew that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

see, that's how irrelevant hot cakes and magazines are

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

it's an old fashioned american name for pancakes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:05pm PDT

I don't even know what hotcakes are

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

mucho popular

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

those too

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:04pm PDT

or flapjacks

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

which we both know is something people love too. everyone is constantly eating hot cakes.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

HOT CAKES

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

they sell like hot cakes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

if there's one thing people buy even more than comics, it's a magazine

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

let's make a magazine next

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

this is awesome

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:02pm PDT

YASSSSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

awesome work and thanks for being so open to suggestions

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

can i send it to jason?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

yep. okay, that's a wrap!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

it is fine

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 3:00pm PDT

hahahahah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

pages is fine

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

let's be done

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

fuck it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

i wanna just say package but i dunno if it makes sense

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

ffffffff

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

to long

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

manuscript?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

ohhhhhh so close. let's use a longer word instead of pages!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:55pm PDT

what about dropping "package of"? how does that look?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

good idea! let's see how it looks

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

despite feeling incomplete?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:52pm PDT

the feeling of loss is kinda confusing now that i read it again

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:52pm PDT

i think the best thing would be "Despite this, Nick was..."

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

it kinda doesn't make sense

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

maybe it needs to be fixed in general

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:51pm PDT

ooorrrr

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

what about getting rid of "immense"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

i'm down with whateve ryou think is best

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

any ideas for a fix?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

but i felt like the words are so close on that line that i can barely see the breaks between them

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

last thing is not a big deal

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

next thing is a paragraph break mistakey poo

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

they look weird

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

i'd like to change it to "comeback movie, The Beaver," and get rid of those dasshes

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

okay, first one

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

almost done

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:42pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:41pm PDT

k cool i found a couple more things on #4

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:39pm PDT

updated and uploaded

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:38pm PDT

s'all good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

also I might be a little dyslectic

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

yeah it didn't help

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

it was more like the bottom

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

i probably messed you up because i said middle right

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

because i j use defying right above it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

the other thing i didn't mention yet is "defying" which i'd like to change to "shunning"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

k i'll highlight it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

nothing can't find any of it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

hahaha what did you change?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

mhhh fuck

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

nope, that's all 3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

ahhh thats all page 2

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

something else

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

oh wow

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

it should says "the result of " not results

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

last paragraph on page three

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

another typo!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

lemme find the paragraph first

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

also, i'd love to iltalicize "but not defeated" if you're cool with that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

necessarily in the middle left column should be necessary

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

page three

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

typo find!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

uploaded

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

awesome!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

fixed and uploading

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

hahah yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

oh the other cover kinda overlapping or something

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

the physical issue

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

OH btw did you notice the messed jesus cover for #4? so weird

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

there is I pulled up the comma on top by 2 pt's

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

dunno if there's a good fix for it, though

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

the comma in the pullquote on page two kinda merges with the quotes at the end

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

I'm fixing it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

it just realized how incredibly unimportant it is! hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

ah cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

just ignore my suggestion

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

there's a missing paragraph break on the top left

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

the typo is on page four

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

i just relaized

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

too much work

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

fuck it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

NAH

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

but my intent is that it may actually afftect all four pages

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

???

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

just edit it in the drive file and make it a funny color

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

thats fine

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

that would push things down a hair, though

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

it could break at "In the end..."

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

so i noticed on the first page that the last full paragraph could easily be two paragraphs

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

but my suggestion is related to the typo find

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

okay so i have a suggestion and also a typo find

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

that could work out great! tons of comic book pros do that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

Amanda and I have that is or BIG plan. She's gonna be an business lady and I'll stay home watchin' the kidses drawing them funny books

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

I've been a housewife for a while now

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

good fuck to u too

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

good luck gonna do some cleaning

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

okay, proofreading!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

good point

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

not even worth it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

but that comp is so slow

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

i do on my old computer

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

ohhh right they're too cool for school

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

I don't like pirating

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

comic book fortune

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

you'll be like scrooge mcduck

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

one day

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

cool I wish I could afford it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

i was in the past but not anymore

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

dunno I'm a pirate

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

i thought they only did it by subscription now

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

and i'll need to buy photoshop

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

i'll probably need a new latop (might even get a desktop) later this year...

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

ha!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

don't even know what that is

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

do you use the photoshop subscription thing?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

I think it's an adobe font

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

i think i have that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Minion Pro

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

whats your body font?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

yesh I'm doing it right now

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i promise not to change anything except typos!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i'll proofread em one more time and then send them to jason

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

if youre done with the pages, wanna dropbox em?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

i dunno. i'm kinda allergic to stress

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

to my old bosses

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

have said it, well not quite like that but made it apparent

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

my*

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

yeah i'm kinda different like that... i would say it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

thats me theory.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

interesting!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

I think it's because when ya work for a boss I can't say "boss this work is creatively killing me" so it get's internalized and your body needs to do something with that energy/

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

i mean i know you had them but i didn't think that could actually happen from stress@

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

yup I got a patch of grey hair on my head and one in mah beard

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

seriously?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

last two times I did it as a job I got grey patches of hair

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

thats why I'm in school for it again I don't want to do it as a job

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

pretty good ye

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

well you're fucking good at it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

this is what I went to school for

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

im impressed

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

really awsesome creative placement of the pullquote

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

i just suggested it because i thought it might fit better

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

i actually hate doing apostrophes without the S

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

can we put the s back on now that the spacing isn't an issue?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

one tiny thing

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

homerun

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

YES!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

OHHHHHHHH

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

i'm wondering if maybe we don't need it since we've already got some large text on the page

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

lemme see what I can do

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

and i dunno about the pull quote there... not the position, but the flow of the story. it basically jumps ahead in time in the article in a way that, to me, messes up the story

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

hahahaha whoopie

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

also, could we drop the "Part :" from the end thing?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

k few thoughts... i think the daniel illustration fit better where it was because it came right at that part about your being rejuvenated.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

ethan nicole from axe cop is also super religous but he's done a action hero jezus comic before

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

well it's anti boring, maybe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

also, what about putting your drawing under the paragraph instead of the middle?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

oh, it still needs the apostrophe after Jesus! just not the second S

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

it's not anti christian it isn't anti anything

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

but it has next to nothing to do with the actual religion!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

well, maybe to some people

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

at all

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

thing is... our book isnt anti christiian

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

like anti-gay and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

like super super

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

he super christian too?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

should ask Doug TenNapel aswel he would most likely make a big deal out of it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

hahaha thats gonna be cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

i cant wait to tell people the story of the "ultra christian artsit" we inadvertantly emiled about a variant

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

yeah nice guy

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

now there's a class act

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

rob guiillory

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

couldnt even be bothered to write back after quoting such a ridic rate

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

what a dick

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

also, Jim Mahfood

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

lets find out

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

oh and don't forget to get rid of the S both in the text and the pull quote!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

thought it might make it pop

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

would it be weird to have The New Apostles in Daniel's shade of blue?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

i think it might look cooler

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

2. drop Part 2 from the ending thing

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

so we might as well use the one that saves space

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

both are grammatically correct

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

1. drop the extra S on Jesus's

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

two suggestions for the final page

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

i'm really feeling this

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

good stuff!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

rubbing cock

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

last time Amanda organised it so it was fine

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

. i've never done that so i wouldnt actually know

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

fair enough

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

i hope people actually flip through it again to see if they missed the line in the text

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

"I was shocked to learn that fisting among friends is commonplace in the comic book subculture."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

thanks man!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I'll get back to you on the qoute

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

BTW your sound effects in #4 are amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

yeah ours were stapled and we got em for free

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

i just like fake words

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

i can cook up something shorter

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

yeah i mean it's not a big deal.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

it might fit depending what I do with ethe final page

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

american ones are super indulgent. everyone graduating gets a glamour shot taken and a ridiculous "meaningful" quote under their heads. the rest of the students get a photo but nothing elaborate. and then the school sells them to the students for like $75-100 a piece

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

my school only did it for the graduating class and there were no quotes or anything like that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

kinda

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

do they do those in holland?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

now that i think about, i pretty sure i used that quote in my high school year book

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

lemme see if it fits

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

duh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

kinda

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Kind long.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

"It is indeed a problem for us to provosculate upon. But it seems to me that the frog and the bear are temporarily out of service."

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it's here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy2seWzdw0E

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

lemme get the whole line

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

hahahahahahahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

we can just use it as is

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

maybe we can use it somehow?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

it's a made up word

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

where Dr. Teeth says "It was indeed a problem for us to probosculate upon"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

so*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

so far zo good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

okay so there's this quote from The Muppet Movie

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

daniel and nick were more devistated than a turky at thanksgiving

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

so we make up a fake pull quote

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

so it's all inconsistent and shit

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

nah, i think just doing it for one is even funnier

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

like if they're not even in the text?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

but then we'd have to do that for all of them

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

this is a parody of high brow mags right? so wouldn't it be extra funny if the quotes don't quite make sense?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

huh?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

it doesn't need to return in the text.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i'm down! any ideas?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

maybe we can make the line funnier

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

and then to redemption on the final page

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

maybe "Daniel and Nick were emotionally devastated."? it's not funny but it does emphasize our character arc going from big success to big failure

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

yeah it works out awesomely

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

i figured it would pretty much be the same

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

k thanks

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick knew this could never see print

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

could you tell me where page three begins now with this edited text? the legnth didn't change much but i still want to be safe!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hey i got a favor to ask....

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

MY BAD

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

i'll dig one out when i'm done

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i'm three paragraphs from the end

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

and I need a qoute for page 3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

I also have to figure out the illustration for page 4

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

I think that would be for page 4

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

good one!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

potential pull quote for page three or four: "Gone were Daniel's long nights spent rubbing speed deep into his gums while drawing Jesus's monster cock."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

It's a bit taller than in the mock tough

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

it's perfect

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i hope you likes

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i already changed the first paragraph so we can begin with a D

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

BTW

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

because even with the callouts, we;ll still be clocking in under four pages

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

but yeah this looks good and i think we've got about the right amount of text

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

dramatic and stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

yeah the burning is way funnier anway!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

to fit with the text the small illustration should be of the burning but whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I should also have one or 2 callouts on page 3

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

love it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

also, great text call out on page 2!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

would you be open to using one of your illustrations on pages 3 and 4 to pretend how it might look? so we can see if all the text fits or if some needs to be cut

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

yeah no rush

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

cool gimme a minute

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

that way i can target it to fit exactly in the space you have available AND we can decide if we want to cut anything

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

thats fine with me

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

how would you feel about doing a quick mockup to see how much text will fit into four pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

the second one ended up about the same size

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

kinda yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I'll do a drug one aswell....

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

fair point

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

or do we need less text than we thought?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

illustrations

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

don't those illustration only cover the first half of what's written? will they be enough?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

no. it needs to be proofread and touched up

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 22, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 5:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

yeah it works

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

he's one of those I only need to draw him once so let's go cray cray

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:51am PDT

hahahaha thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:51am PDT

with pouty lips

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:51am PDT

serious

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:51am PDT

my new favorite character. super series doctor.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:49am PDT

I finally have time to color for a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

already off to a good start

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

yeah it's so much better this way

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

well i'm glad to know that1

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

I like the end results

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

whatever gets you there man

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

for me, it's less about speed and more about not getting stuck or frustrated. so if i make things smoother, being faster will be a perk!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:35am PDT

thats probably quicker

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

maybe i should do a simple punch up / rewrite all at once and then just tweak as i letter

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:34am PDT

i think i know why these issues were a little tougher to letter... i was doing my punch ups and rewrites page by page.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:33am PDT

yesh it it I can probably do the spot illustration on saturday/sunday

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

it's crazy how soon SDCC is.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

my guess is that we'll need about a month to print the SDCC version of Holy F*cked, so we'll probably have to figure out the backmatter next week.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:32am PDT

good luck

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

hopefully this one goes quicker than the others. they were kinda hard for me for some reason.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:31am PDT

nice! i'm gonna start lettering tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

I think I'll be done coloring by saturday

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

yeah! sounds like a good plan

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

at some point in early june once Holy F*cked is wrapped, i think it would be cool to Skype about Brain Bash, One Night Stand, and the future

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

yessir

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:28am PDT

okay cool so we got somewhere to go with this

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

I'm a simple man

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

i knew it.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

did you mean to say "all of this sounds good to pee"?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

all of this sounds good to mee

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

there needs to be unironic urine consumption or i'm walking.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

that's non-negotiable for me.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

this also gives us a chance to have the main characters drink their own pee to surivive.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

so maybe Professor Decimator does "die" in that he loses his body. but his brainwaves seep into the city's water supply and he infects everyone like a virus.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

a message

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

they stop selfishly trying ti pursue their own goals and they do something to help other people.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

yeah!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

it needs to be something where Addison and Lance work together to defeat the Professor.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:20am PDT

I KNOW!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

but i'm not sure what kind of third act would work well without being bland. they have one more fight and the switch back? boring1

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

but if we consider the ending we have now as the end of the second act, then we've actually got a fantastically strong character arc.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

exactly.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

there is no real arch

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

it just feels incomplete to me as it is. it ends with zero resolution.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

well the second half is really simple... in fact, i think it might be too simple and we actually need to add a whole other act to the story.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

I never had time to get past the first half :P

Nick MarinoThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

hehe I expected a ton more changes! but i like your ideas a lot and i think we're on track to making this a much stronger story.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 21, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

oh oh

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 10:04pm PDT

gonna crack open the Brain Bash stuff tonight!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

but i thought i'd mention it

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i couldn't tell from your mock up if it was because i'm not that awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

the text in the fake making of should probably be 100 Black CMYK

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

OH! just remembered something...

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

whatever you want is fine with me!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

that might be fun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

I was thinking we could change the name of the illustrator for every part

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

whoop whoop

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 20, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

I have. I had a tough time finding a solid color that I felt worked as well as that light gradient.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

have you tried it with is on the menu as a solid color?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 3:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

i suck at this kinda stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

yeah totally

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

cewl! will fix shit when you ahve the final text

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

It looks fucking good. I think the t might be a hair close to the text, but otherwise, i'm loving it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Oh I forgot to respond to your new layout!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

lez see... this issue has swearing, a tiny bit of action, romance, oh it's pretty sacriligious

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

oooooo also, we should probably place the warning label first

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

also, revenge is on the menu!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

i found them all

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

tonight's dinner is revenge

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

hungry for revenge and revenge is served?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

testing out text now for #2

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

yuppers

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

yah he is good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

probably not I love ruggs work tough

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

with that said, i haven't seen any of them in over two years, so they could be awesome now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

and then he talks big game, like he knows all about how to make comics but i;m like "dude... look at your own comics!" he's also kinda fake, just like Ed Piskor and Jim Rugg.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

thats why I don't do art comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

he makes silk screened $10 minicomics that are, frankly, boring and underdrawn

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

while i think he has an interesting angle on things, i don't personally dig his work

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

ye agreed but its fine for him

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

i appreciate that he wants to look at a page from an analyticaly perspective, but i think the mathematical formula / geometric shapes for a panel layout thing is a load of over-thought crap

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

but sometimes he's a bit to prescriptive

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

his thinking is awesome for him

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

he overthinks allot

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

who are about equal parts full of great ideas and bullshit

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

here's another one of those art comics guys from pittsburgh

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

i have mixed feelings

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

frank santaro is an interesting fella

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

okay, then i'm suggesrting it!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

no

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

would you hate me if i suggested it start as "The creators of Holy F*ck met in 2012..." instead?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

well consider it when you edit the text :)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

hahaha I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

i'm also wondering if it might be better to save our names for the second or third paragraph and put them in bold

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

it definitely reads better with our names like that! now i kinda hate the spacing in the top line though!!! ahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

this is fun for me

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

ohhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

they previous version was babas now it's myriad

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

haha was that deconstructing comics episode that you listened to a frank santoro one?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

i think it looks fantastic here.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I have a boner for bebas it clouds my judgement

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I think it should probably say our full names, though, now that I look at it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

A lot better!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

super awesome. great idea having it in yellow too

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

i love that D, though

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

no that would look fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

would it look weird doing that bold sizing with the same font as the rest of it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

nah it's the type

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

It leaves a "widow" at the bottom (one word) and some of the internal spacing it wonky. Maybe down a point in font size?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

yeah It's not good :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

I love the idea! But I'm not crazy about the spacing.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

mhhh why not?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

since mendoza will be on it during the dinner scene

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

i'm kinda like "should i tell action lab about it"?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

that show i was on will air next week

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

yeah cool. im down with that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

I won't get started on the nitty gritty till I have colored #4 anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

thats fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

FYI I'll definitely be editing what we currently have, not so much changing the length but tweak it to not have as many repeated words and of course catching any sneaky typos.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

yeah!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

but it's good to know that about this much will be the right amount for #3 and #4

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Which won't be a problem.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Okay, so I'll try to double what we currently have for part 1.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

right? i agree. i'll be like roach, still making comics in 20 years and people will be like "well, he's still here so i guess he must be good?"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

but thats cool more opportunity for me

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

yep, me too. so many.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

I know more people like that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

yeh true

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

she's terrific but just doesn't have the motivation for comics, which... let's be honest... counts for like 75% of making comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

hah! it was really good for only being like 40 pages

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yeah I loved dinosomething

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

i WISH i could get Kaylie to make comics with me. she would crush it so hard. but she's just not that into it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Sophie, Kelly, Heather, Kaylie, Neal (he's programming games now!)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

yeah it is

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

naw, but really it's pretty cool to see what all of the audioshocker peeps have done in a little bit more than a year since the site retired

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

"we didn't know at the time that the AudioShocker would be important to us, but here we are now..."

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

maybe but I liked it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

as dumb as that angle was at times :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

there's no replacement for the audioshocker! we didn't really do things like the other shows. just factually speaking, we had our own angle on things

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

it's weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

just say we want to do a making of thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

yeah just write whatever and we'll figure the design it out afterwards

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

but i could be wrong! also, i was going to wait until we had our text on the cover for #2 before i emailed him.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

what do you suggest? my thought it that we should at least get a tentative okay from him, which i don't think will be a problem.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i haven't emailed jason yet...

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

so if you're going to design it then i'm going to just go nuts and keep writing like crazy. depending on how much we need, i can edit it out or write more for whichever issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

i loved your tpb design!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

cewl I like it doing the trade back cover was tons of fun

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

i don't like it. but i do like making less work for you!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

hahahaha because you like it? and it's less work for me?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

Hahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

Why do I ever offer to design anything?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

I'll just keep writing then. Which, frankly, I'd rather do.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

TOTALLY COOL!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

is it cool with you if I do the designs for the story in the back after I do the spot illustrations? and have you emailed Jason or whoever about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

oh yeah! do ya thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

well maybe there's a tweak that could make it funnier

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

it's a bit dry but it would work

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

the issue title would work well as cover text

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 19, 2015 at 7:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

yes I think so

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

something set in a vague sci-fi-ish future starring Rad. but people don't know it's her until the backup story in the first issue...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

we've already done funny stuff throughout these stories. what about something more serious or just straight up action?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

couple more brainstorming ideas...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

agreed.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

aannddd I think we can do that again by creating an "expended" universe

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

From my personal POV, Holy F*ck Origins did two things really well: 1. It fleshed out the world of Holy F*ck by showing that there's a richer history going on here... it basically helped us add a lot to the what the backstory could be but without showing much, and 2. it gave us a chance to work in different styles and tell different kinds of stories from the tonally consistent main story

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

well how can we use what we learned to do the next thing?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

People also liked the vague implied romance of the wrestling one and the different look of the dragon one

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

With the Heaven one, they seemed to really respond to the visual style and they unexpected relationship

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Oh, and they liked Merlin a lot

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

With 1 BC, I think people liked the twist

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

With 33 AD, I think people liked the cheekiness of it... how it recast characters they vaguely already knew.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

cewl

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

I jusy uploaded 10, BTW

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

In terms of what people responded to with Origins...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

:) doing page 7 now

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

OOOOOOOOooooo I love that page!!!!! Awesome stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

at the end of the day it doesn't matter but it can help

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

what did the readers like about origins?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

then again who gives a fuck what the readers want? hahaha!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

my gut says it would be most satisfying for readers if we're giving them one consistent thing, even if it's unrelated to the main plot. but just because i feel that doesn't mean it's actually true! so that's where i'm at with it right now.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

by one option i also mean all options too :D

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

with that said, if there's one option you're most passionate about, i'm down with that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

I got no real plot ideas tough

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

i need to think about it a bit to figure out what i like the most

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

yeah it's nice like that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

options*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

I like the last idea because it's all option rolled in one

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

SO MANY OPTIONS

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

ooooooooooo interesting

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

so one issue would have JC's sister another F*ck buddies and another a apostles thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

what if we do it similar to Holy F*ck origins... so every issue has another thing that expands the universe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

okay I got another idea that might help

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

i guess it depends on what kind of plot we go with.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

Chaviva sounds funner and livelier. Fruma sounds goofier and more boring. so i could see them both being awesome.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

so if we go the Jesus's sister route... right now it's Chaviva vs. Fruma for me. both so funny. HARD TO PICK ONE

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

k byeeeeeee

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

will be back later

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

I gotta do some dishes and go to my parents

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

wuuuuut

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

Fruma

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

dunno it's very common over here

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

i can only speak for America, but Esther is considered a super old-fashioned and kinda goofy name here

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

Esther means "hidden" in Hebrew AND it's also a funny name

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

hahahahaha yeah good stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

i may have found the perfect one

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

OMG

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Viva Chaviva!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Dinah

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Holy Chaviva

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

ah yeah sounds funny

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

thought that one was funny

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

looking up hebrew names for women

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

mh?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Chaviva

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:13am PDT

oh no it's all cool

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

i'm not trying to hijack the idea.... and i want you to have maximum enthusiasm about it! just tossing out some ideas

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

yeah it's cool with me

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

TV

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

her watching TB

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

her at a boring office job

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

her eating a sandwich

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

her going grocery shopping

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

or something really boring like that

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

like "Jesus's Sister... SUSAN!"

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

does it have to be a brother? what about a sister? i feel like we've got so much dong in here as it is

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

yeah it does!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

adding the idea of a brother adds even more implied back story

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

hahaha yeah i like it too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

like introducing the weird-ass looking baby from two powerfull deities in the last few pages and leaving moses out there.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

I like the idea of kinda setting up a volume3 without having the intention of ever making it... if that makes sense?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

allrighty then

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

brb gonna have a quick bite to eat

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

hehehe yeah!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

or like, it climaxes with one of them driving past the big herc fight on the highway. "oh wow, what it is?" and then he just keeps driving

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

yeah like he could be a movie jezus

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

that would be pretty funny, totally unrelated shit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brothers_of_Jesus

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

thats about it :P I just think it would be fun to do these little episodes that make the reader think it's gonna influence the story but it doesn't...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

k, go ooooonnnn

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

well it's very very undefined but I was thinking we could make a pretty much unrelated story about one of Jezus'es siblings

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

cool, tell me!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

I also had another idea for backup stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

it's almost like an eastern egg

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

adorable.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

hahahahahaha! look at him there.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

no he's just tiny

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Decided to get rid of Moses, eh?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Really incredible work.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:09am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 8:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 17, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 16, 2015 at 8:22pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 16, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 16, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Yep. It looks pretty much the same

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

One thing is a family pic. Maybe we can photoshop each other onto existing family pics that we have

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Well that's all I gots for now. Thanks for drawing a fucking amazing issue. I can wait to flat it!!! Gonna be funnnnnn. Also, I'm looking forward to the brain bash plot.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

Also, I had an idea for a female action hero story... Actually, more like a female superhero story but I'm thinking it might be better to make it action hero since superheroes are not cool with most publishers

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

awesome!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Floated!!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

I'll do what I normally do and put the formatted pages up just in case your friends bore you and you want to color.... But I'm gonna crunch on these all weekend and try to get as many floated as possible

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Oh perfect!!!! Dude I can flat soooooooo much of the book by then with my good computer up and running

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Banging last two pages!!!!!!!!! My plan is to have all of the pages formatted and uploaded to the Dropbox before you wake up tomorrow morning.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 6:02am PDT

I'm happy you like it! I hope to start colouring on thuesday

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 14, 2015 at 6:01am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

his name would be perfect

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:01am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 1:01am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

orrrrr make it look like that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:55am PDT

If you want the text you could just make the whole block yellow and make the text big

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

doesn't*

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

yeah that doen't work

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

but meh

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:54am PDT

tried out some text

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

yeah it's not bad

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

looks pretty good tough

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:48am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:39am PDT

LGBQ flag all the wat brah

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

yeah not surprised

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

too cluttered

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

not feeling it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

lemme try

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:30am PDT

can't you put the 2 variants on top of each other?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

i guess the only sucky thing about that one is no satan

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:27am PDT

and the top can be extended so easily with sky

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:27am PDT

i'll put some rainbow down there

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:27am PDT

it's great because the bottom 1/3 of the banner will be wasted anyway

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

yeah, and i figured it out... #4 jesus variant, my fave

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

hmmm well then i guess we'll have to skip titan

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

vertical banner?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

the market is over saturated and it's profiling

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

yeah it's a edgy spin I think it's kinda the same reason they don't want zombie pitches it's over done.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 12, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

what do you think would be be our best image for a vertical banner?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

also, why are all of these indie publishers so allergic to superheroes? i get that they probably see an excessive amount of superhero pitches, but this reminds me a lot of Oni and others who just don't want it.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 7:43pm PDT

Do you think One Night Stand is too close to their "edgy spin" scenario under their list of pitches they don't want to see? http://titancomics-wanted.tumblr.com/guidelines

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

It's a li'l too late for me to get anything good done with it before I leave. But at least it's fucking here and I can tear through some flats when I get back.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

I need to get another one of these as a backup.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

OMG MY CHARGER IS HERE MY CHARGER IS HERE!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

trough my fever dreams

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

sure! I'll have some stuff done!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

how about this... i can't work on it until at least Friday... so you could take the outline and do anything at all that you want to it. then, at the end of the week, i'll crack it open and let you know what i think!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

action heroes, superheroes, and science bitches

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

also

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

I just think action-heroes and super-heroes are similar but nevermind

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

not sure what you mean by that. but i'd love to know more about what you're thinking!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

I agree but there is a thin line between the two I still think it worth playing around with this.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

how so? i think it's more of an action hero thing... which i see as different because there are no super powers, no teams, no superhero moral dilemmas...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

my biggest concern is that it's very super-hero-y

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

allrighty hen

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

yes it's in the spirit of Holy f*ck but with a different angle.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

so kinda like we Holy F*ck, instead of making this a parody of the tropes we make it more of a subversion of the tropes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

ah cool

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

they specifically asked for that in their submissions info

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i'm just like... why not give them more of what they want?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

but I'm totes cool with changing around some caracterstics

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

I might have more

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

i forgot about that!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

we should write this down

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

just ideas, nothing i'm totally sold on

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

they also really want some diversity in the mix... i think 1. we should go with a dude kinda like your Super Serious design (which we were gonna do anyway) and 2. maybe we could reverse the roles of the mom and dad... have the dad be really hot for the merc instead. and have the mom be less of a cliche. maybe even make the villain female.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

yeah sounds awesome!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

i think they'd like to know that there's a competent artist working on it even if you're not interested in drawing the whole book

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

and potentially you could give them some character designs if you wanted

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

so we'd need to write some of the script

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

yeah I'm reading it right now

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

yeah we have a pretty detailed outline

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

we have a plot

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

a plot

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

if we do this how much do we already have?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

not totally sure what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

what do we have?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

we could always pitch it as a writing team too if you'd rather them find an artist

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Yes except I could never figure out how to draw it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Ya know what I just realized? We could pitch Brain Bash to Oni.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

good :)

Nick MarinoMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

yeah, i'd love to do something like that too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

I'd like to draw an action hero woman comic

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 11, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

5 is no problem :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

didn't we get 10 together?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

5? so I can sell a couple

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

k, how many?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

I think I'd like more trades

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

would you like more of anything?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i think it's 5 of the reg cover, 2 of each variant, and 2 TPBs?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

ehm 5?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I got 88 pages now

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I'm close to wrapping it up

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

that's a sweet story

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

maybe I'm gonna finish my brothers comic first

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i think you should start writing an outline for it! figure out which experiences could fit in there well... and then maybe others will become relevant to the story as you go.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

also auto-bio always makes me uncomfortable

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

i see what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

:(

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

wellll I guess thats kinda the problem I feel there is something there but maybe not enough to make it purely auto-bio

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

won't get my charger till at least monday :(

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

so like an auto-bio thing about your experiences with sexuality?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

I don't know exactly I've talked about it with Abe aswell but I can't find the right angle.... In my life I have this stilly story about my dad trying to exercise evil gay spirits from me when I was about eight and between thats and me meeting Amanda when I was 18 there are allot of anecdotal things about people trying to make sense of my sexuality for me

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

sorry, thought i already sent that message

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

what would be your perspective on it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

he seems like a cool dude

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

we're getting a real nice little bunch of love for the podcast on twitter right now! thanks to jimmy palmiotti, mostly ;)

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

yeah maybe I project a bit to much when it comes to this. I have actually considered making a comic about this subject. I just don't know how

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

yeah i think that's just an unique mix of factors contributing to the you that is you! for me, as a teen, i didn't give a shit what anyone said or comics when i could be pursuing sex. even as a 20-something too, really. so this doc was an interesting window for me into a different perspective / experience

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

I also wonder how much my religious upbringing has to do with this. As teens we were always told not to have sex, but even then I wasn't even considering it in the first place, I had comics to read

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

mhhh yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

like the non asexuals they put in there

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

maybe yeah that makes sense I guess

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

HA! not boring, just unique. i think this movie is in some ways directed at people who participate in a lot of the automatic sex-focused social rituals like bars and clubs and dating. and this movie is about saying "here's another lifestyle you may not know about and this is how it works"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

sooooo I might just be boring

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

but than again Amanda is the only girlfriend I've ever had and she was the one trying to get with me not the other way around

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

to me sex is not that big of a thing I don't care if someone has it or doesn't

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

no actually the non jerk part

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

haahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

YOU JERK

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

but more you

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

probably both

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

but it also might just be me

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

that might be it

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

obviously i can't comment in the sense that i don't know you from that time or your relationships well, but i think the idea is that these individuals find themselves alienated or ostracized for not being as interested in sex as the people around them, so this doc is an opportunity to give that perspective a voice. i forget how much of the cast is American, but that may also big a big part of it in terms of perception and discussion of this topic... like them feeling the specific pressure or rejection from American social culture

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

and I guess I don't understand the big deal....

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

becuase most of them sound either like me until I was 18 or the relationship I have with most of my gay friends

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

yeaaahh but I know my opinion is not super fair and comes from a place of just not grasping something. I think they are not explaining something very well

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

hahaha hey if you got an opinion about it, that's fine with me

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

I should not be watching this I'm too much of a dickhead

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

I understand that

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

I know

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

my general answer to all of your comments is: "i dunno! *shrug*" hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

hahahahaaha people that think sexuality is about orgasms

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

I'm being a dick

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

doen't that defeat the purpose?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

asexual lesbian?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

whuuuuuttttt

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

I love dan savage

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

I don't buy asexuals that masturbate

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

yeaah I already have strong feelings about some of the stuff :P

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

cool. it's not the best made doc but it's interesting

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

I'm watching (A)sexual

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

brb

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

the variety really makes it pop. good stuff!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

I tried to change up the sfx a bit before it was mostly red/yellow text

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

thanks! I also think it works quite well!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 9:55am PDT

YES!!!!!!!!!! Another amazing job. I love the way this page depicts the sequence of events. Great stuff, man.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

k, bedtime

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

double dots!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

it's a weird dutch spelling thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

officially my name is spelled Daniël

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

yup every danny is an asshole

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 9, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

nah, danny blows.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

it's culturally more equal to Danny and I think that sounds to childish

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

some go by Daan but only my mom calls me that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

mja thats not a thing here

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

i don't say the name that often... everyone else i know goes by Dan

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

it probably is

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

or not

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

it's probably my weird mix of american accents

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

one of my Swedish friends also pronounces it like that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

hhahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT

I don't care but I decided to just put it out there

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:44pm PDT

Day-nie-el

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

you pronounce my name weird

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

well not according too you

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

that's another way to get it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

and it comes from widespread cultural recognition of people who bandwagon stuff because its cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

validation comes from inside you nick! in starts with you loveing comics man! FROM INSIDE

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

I just gave up talking at the end :P

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

hahaha probably

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

they don't care really I think

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

how come both of our podcasts got released on a friday night, though? worst time for promoting.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

I think that might be why I taught it was boring

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

i can't even bring myself to relisten to it. i listened to like 1 min and i was done

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

these two dudes talk allot

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

I'm listening to the bleed interview

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

I have no idea what it could be

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:42pm PDT

musta been a mistake with the pdf they set up?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:42pm PDT

it is

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:39pm PDT

that sounds weird

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 4:02pm PDT

I finally opened the box from Diamond. I don't think the black triangles on the back cover are bad at all! What's super weird, though, is that every copy of the Holy F*ck #4 Jesus variant has a ghosted image of the #4 regular cover behind it. You can see Maria's fist in the sky and Garuda's teeth under the rainbow.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

it can turn on but needs a new battery

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

i still need to see if it can record

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

did you get your cam to work?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

normal comic coventions are trade shows here

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

yeah neither of those are really a thing in Holland unless you go to anime conventions

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

unless you're doing lots of commissions or being on a panel, they're pretty underwhelming

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

yeah thats part of my whole thing that I tell myself

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

hahahaha they're kinda overrated when it comes to exhibiting

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

I am a woos soooo I would wait for a show to come close too me and than still not go

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

San Diego another Long Beach show in Sept and Comikaze in LA around Halloween

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

yes and yes I don't see how you would make it back either. But it might be nice. Isn't there anything closer coming up tough?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

i would probably still lose money doing it. in fact, i dunno how i could make money after the flight and hotel and food. but it would be nice to have all of HF on the table.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

yeaaaahhh thats one of the reasons I don't have anything planned myself

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

i have NO display stuff, though. i'd probably need to get a banner at least

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

sounds nice!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

there's also a chance i might exhibit at Phoenix Comicon at the end of the month. mostly if i can find someone to split the hotel with me and if the show gives me a table.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

okay, so i emailed Dave the cover. which you probably saw.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

hey!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

10 mins later "hey, i restarted!"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

hehehehe sound like my dad

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

you'll find out yourself in two months.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

yes those people. a couple of them love to shout at their crying babies too. "SHUUUT UP!" "what is your problem?" "STOP ITTTTT!"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

nooooo not those people

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

"it's time to go potty!" "ugh, you jerk, you just made me come out here"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

ew

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

OMG everyone in my apartment complex has dogs now and they all talk to their dogs while pooping and it's so annoying

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

k sending now, though i'm restarting first. you'll be copied on it.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

yeah do that :)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

should i send them the lettered version? or both? or unlettered? my personal suggestion lettered. i think it sells a bit better like that.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

done

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

fedex

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

okay, so how do you want me to send this to them?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

that sounds dangerous

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

I ate a pint of icecream in 15 minutes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

your thing is cool also

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

hehehe in the bottom of a ben and jerrys pint there is air so if I push on the top of the icecream it sounds like farts

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

got everything edited, just adding a new tail

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

yeah old computers don't like that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

been trying t open the smart layer for 5 mins!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

lemme keep playing around

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

it's tough because of the window

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

yeah something doensn;t feel quite right

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i did that before i read your message

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

that's not it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I would put the satan balloon more to the left

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

"His dress is so cute!" "Does that guy have a mullet?"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Satan"One candy each!" Jezus: "Or feel the wrath of god"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

or the kids with thought bubbles: "What the hell?!" "Definitely knocked on the wrong door."

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

"OMG, you're adorable! Happy Halloween, kids." "Your costumes suck."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

satan and jesus talking: "Happy Halloween! We're strangers... with candy!" "Enjoy it, ya little shits."

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

"Dick or Treat?"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

but maybe we should have a couple ready

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i'm not saying we need to bring them up

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

oh, text suggestions... just in case they want it?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

yeah I've heard more complaints

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

also, i hate auto downloads

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

i never use itunes for podcasts! i think it's the worst way to listen to them. so out of date and clunky

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

but I never had to get anything up on there

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

mja I don't know I mostly listened to audioshocker via iTunes

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

itunes is weird... it was always days behind our website. and, oddly enough, they have very responsive customer support for podcasters, which i didn't expect since it's fucking apple. but it's actually very technical to get set up with them and their system is wonky.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

http://directory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/61900

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

wow their Itunes and website do NOT line up

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

so, yeah, today

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

whut

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

"Next week the Holy F*ck team of writer Nick Marino and artist Daniel Arruda Massa stop by the show to talk the classic collaboration of Garth Ennis, Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmioti, and Paul Mounts from Image Comics, The Pro."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

May 01, 2015 "Next week we're hosting the AMAZING Howard Porter! The current artist of Justice League 3000 "

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

might take a while...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

they should have an episode commin' out today I think

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

nooo idea

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

I don't know It's just never grabbed me I think I might like 1 song from his first album

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

hey do you know when our bleeding cool podcast gets posted?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

but he got kind of annoying to me over time. now i think he's gotten really corny.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

i loved his first album and all of his early guest spots

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

kayne hit at just the right moment for me, when i was learning to make beats

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

depending on the time in my life

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

i've been into all kinds of hip hop

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

good idea

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

I'm taking the evening of btw

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

I still don't like JC and Kanye West and all that crap

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

I didn't get into hiphop until I was 18

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

but i've watch almost every hip hop doc netflix has ever had. they're all pretty decent

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

yep. i don't even know what it's about anymore

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

or since 2000 atleast

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

but HipHop has changed soooo much in the last decade

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

It was good

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

but i gave it 4 stars

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

i don't remember rhyme and reason well

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

All This Mayhem

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Rhyme & Reason and the skating one

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

and the "hard luck case" is this guy who can't even bowl and he just wants to sing karaoke!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

and the "hero" is this boring bowling technician with no personality

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

like the guy who calls himself bowling's badboy is this dork with a mullet

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

cause they're such fascinating losers

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

I wonder why it makes you want to make a bowling comic

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

hahahaha and???

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

oh good point!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

nooo but then you could bring up that I haven't made up my mind about #4

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

some changes you want to make to #2?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

I know

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

it's only the #1 covers we need

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

this cover doesn't need to be done now

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

aother thing to keep in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

fair enough

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

and the birth of the baby

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

maybe but for people like me that don't read that stuff it's more fun

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

i think the big surprise is her crucifying him on the moon

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

but wouldn't it be in the solicits anyway?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

I like the warmachine cover best BUT I don't want to put the mecha on the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

with the label on it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

and over the Holy F*cked logo we have "HAIL MARY" in painted letters

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/iron-man/282-1.jpg

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

it's war machine!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

now here's my favorite, though.... because if there's one thing i love more than old school iron man...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

thats better!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

He stole her messiah... and now it's TOTAL WAR!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/iron-man/225-1.jpg

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

although, c'mon

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

i will never be mad about doing this stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

trying to pick covers

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

i love this stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

sure! no problem by me

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

now that everyone knows about that armor

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

it's too bad they never did a hulkbuster cover

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

I feel like a dickhead but.... I think I'm going with our original idea and pick the elektra cover :3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

I don't want to spoil the surprise

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

it would work but I don't want the mecha on the cover

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

anything from the layton issues is fine by me

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

well, look, i'm like #1 old school iron man fan so i won't say no to that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

back

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

https://lrpctech.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/026-iron-man-126-john-romita-jr.jpg maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

part of why I'm being so difficult about the cover because I both want it to be a homage and fit in the overal astetic of my main covers

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

be back in a few

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

done :P

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

it can just say "the new apostles"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

well this one is actually really simple to me

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

we can play of the original text

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/42/Giantsize1.jpg

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

but i think it's unavoidable at this point

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

i don't want the text either

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

yeah I agree

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

so that way at least we're okay with whatever ends up on there.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

personally, i think we should suggest text we'd be okay with for #2-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

:(

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

but jason's probably gonna make us do that fr most of the issues

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

it's funny tough

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

i wish

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

no texts man

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

the text can be "Maria gets the final laugh!"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

if we do the batgirl/joker thing

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

behind her would be the mecha, i guess

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

i dunno. but instead of a tarp, she could be standing on Herc's head!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

but what would I put behind her?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

hes pretty amazing

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

actually quite simpel

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

but that's also easier said than done

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

right, i figured with the elektra one you good repose her

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

butt*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

oh right but you wanted DC

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

ooops!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

both are a #1

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

https://www.google.com/search?q=wonder+woman+famous+covers&tbm=isch

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

Sensation Comics #1 and Wonder Woman #1 don't really fit our story

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

same

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

yeah i haven't seen much yet...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

let's see IF there is a WW cover and than take it from there

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

and exactly which issue we were homaging

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

like he specifically asked me about every homage we were planning

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

because he already signed off on the Elektra idea when i was on the phone with him

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

we need to check in with Jason about that

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

but

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

OH

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

also fits with HF where #4 had a maria cover... mostly

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

oh yeah most definitely

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

i just thought it would be great to give maria one

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

cool be cool yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

what about homaging a wonder woman cover?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

i was thinking about that too

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

that's coo

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

now we have 2 marvel homage covers and 1 DC I'd like to either make it equal or totes change it up

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

I'm gonna look for an alternative from the elektra cover

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

also fine

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

i thought we were kate and leo. and action lab was the titantic...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

I know and I do deel like I'm an equal and that kind of shit but if this book were a boat you'd be the captain and I would be Leonardo DeCaprio

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

the most important thing to me is that you're doing all of the stuff you want to do. i'm glad to email them and do all that but i also want you to get the recognition you deserve for the decision making and direction of this project

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

you just fucking worry about the number 4 cover then

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i'll send 'em over ;)

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

this piece of shit omputer

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

loking

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i like that way of loking at it!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

it's not a bad thing at all. becuase of that I can do an issue every 4-5 weeks

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

i didn't think of it that way

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

HAHAHA!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

hahahaha it's cool man. But I'm sorry to break it to you but you are kinda running the operation.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

because when i'm always the one replying to them and sending everything, i think it gives them the idea that i'm running everything

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

but to be honest, i think you should

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

i don't mind sending em! i just wanted to clarify that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

ah whoopsie :P I'll send 'em

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

also, was rereading our messages because i think you mayb have misunderstood me! i asked "would you like to send them to dave and jason" but from your answer i'm wondering if you thought i said "would you like me to send them to dave and jason"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

yeah, the credit is good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

sure anything if fine really it's just good to credit brb

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

on your signature if you'd like

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

i can add little "after BLANK BLANK"

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

sure. lemme do some research and figure out exact who drew Batman #1

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

also we should probably give credit to the original on the covers....

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

yeah no rush

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

I'll get back on pages tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

yeah! that would be great. I'm probably gonna do the #4 cover in a bit

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

oh shit yeah i see that!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

would you like to send them to dave and jason

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

it's all based on the colors I use in the issue itself

Nick MarinoFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

they both came out great. i love the coloring on them a lot... great palette choices

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, May 8, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 2:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

hahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

so this layout is okay?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

this is why I love the classic marvel design with the corner box and all

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

mja still fine

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

the UPC

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

oh shit dude

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

i think dave thought i was mackin on his girlfriend but really i just didn't like how she was being left out of the conversation, so i tried to find things to talk about with her.meanwhile he's complaining about why he's not frank miller yet and i'm just trying to find interesting topics that aren't just about comics

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

heh!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

"Daniel?" "yeah he's kinda a dick... but also a nice guy?"

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

hahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

sounds like me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

he's still funny and pleasant, but dickish

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

at least an american one

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

kinda like an awkward high schooler trying to be cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

mhhh to bad

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

but he's not good at it

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

he's, i dunno... kind of insecure and paranoid? so he counteracts it by being a really transparent dick

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

i was just curious

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

i support whatever you decide

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

why was it weird?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

mokay I just don't want him to say no

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

hanging with him in San Jose was WEIRD

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

i feel like he might want to get a gander, if only because he's kinda proud like that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

mhhhh we'll see maybe I don't know

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

there's no rush! were you gonna show it to dave before you colored it?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

ughhh inking to slow

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

lookin good

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

how's this for you? i had to condense the city a little to fit the label

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

yeah I kinda think the style might fuck with some chances

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i'd also love for an edgier company to take a chance on the different style, like Avatar

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

that would be cool

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

ii really want Image. i think it'd be juuussssst right

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i really believe in One Night Stand. we can find the right publisher. we just have t be persistent and patient.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

yeah, that would be cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

except that we could make a weird haped book

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

i don't want to ship shit or print shit or make stuffed wonderkats.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

yeah at this point kickstarter wouldn't give us anything extra

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i'd go with shitty ALE before that probably. at least it gets the book into the marketplace with them

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i mean, we could do one and probably cover printing / shipping for 100-150 people. but ehhhhhh doesn't seem like fun to me.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

yeah I would only ever do a kickstarter is all I wanted was $300 or sometin

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

this time 2 years ago, they went in for too much and still magically made it

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

a lot of projects are going in for too much $$$ and coming back with less than 50%

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

but kickstarter is cooling off big time

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

I agree with all the stuff you said. I know I might make all of this a bit overcomplicated but I just like looking at the next thing ya know

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

my iffiness with 2 is that some of those companies have less marketing presence than we can have on our own. but they have direct market distribution. so we could kickstart the book and then go with them for wider distribution.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

yeah I'm leaning to 3

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

my gut says we should at least get a look at our first accounting statement from ALE before we talk to them about it.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

my feeling is that this is the time of the year when companies are really actively seeking stuff. Oni open subs, Vertigo hunting for peeps at Emerald City Con, Action Lab with us last year, etc. A lot of companies want to announce stuff at SDCC and have it ready to go for 2016. So our timing is pretty good.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

that's true.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

mhh lemme think 'but this for a sec

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

2 and 3 aren't mutually exclusive

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

that's three options

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

wait

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i see two options. 1. we just fucking dive into One Night Stand. 2. we send out a second round of pitches to smaller companies (Alterna, Northwest Press, a couple others), or 3. we wait until SDCC to pitch it more and instead work on some other pitches.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

right, of course.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

yes thats why I'm bringing it up also because Dollman fell trough

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

so i think we have two options

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

also, we'll both be at San Diego

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

with that said, we sent Holy F*ck out earlier

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

this is around when we heard back about Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

i really don't know!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

that's a great questin

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

if it's easier to discuss that on skype sometime thats cool too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

on another note..... how long are we gonna wait for ONS...

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

awesome. thanks.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

I liked all but one so I'm happy with anyone of 'em

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

cool. any others you really wish made the cut?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

hahaha it's a killer dolphin and a thingy

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

WHAT IS THAT ONE THING?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

sorry im too distracted by those awesome characters on the bottom left!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

hahaha I'm not a parent so I don't care :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

hahahaha K!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

I think parrents might be a tad to much I'm not aaron

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

classic costumes

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

perfect

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

I was thinking witch vampire and mummy

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

little kids

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

i did think it might be funny to have a mom or dad with the little and the parent is just like "WTF?" looking at Jesus and Satan

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

mhyeah

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

the costumes

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

but none of those seem that cool to me

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

NICE!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

for the kids, i tried to think of a cool joke to sneak in there with the costumes... the gods from Holy F*ck, the New Apostles, shitty superheroes...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

yeah made me have something to talk about with mah dady

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

those are my fave kind of sports docs... the ones where the sports aren't the subject but the setting

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

i'm glad you liked Knuckleball

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

yeah it is!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

shit's fucked up

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

I'm watching Hot Coffee right now

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

yeah thats boring

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

it's tricky... my initial thought was Satan in a devil costume and Jesus in an angel costume. or reversed. but is that too predictable?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

yeah thats why I was thinking about those two things

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

brb gotta restart

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

so it has to be something generic for us to use it

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

i guess it's tough because people normally dress up as characters from movies and shit

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

okay, like red pigtails and a goofy dress?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

http://inquisitiveeater.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Wendys_logo_2012.svg_.png

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

wendy-ish?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

I was thinking wendy-ish and a kittycat

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

mostly satan and jezus

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 8:11am PDT

OR FOR ALL OF THEM?? haha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

When you say costumes do you mean for Jesus and Satan... or for the kids?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

Yeah, I mean, the Halloween thing is great since Jesus and Satan have the house now. So it works out so well with the story.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:43am PDT

Great expressions. I love how they're swinging from nothing. It's so silly. Also, Satan's outfit!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:42am PDT

FUCKIN SICK, DUDE!!!!!! I love it.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:09am PDT

I gotta figure out costumes for the halloween cover

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 1:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

hercdick is just superfunny

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

no but I feel our editors will like it better

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

k. more than herc, you're being a dick?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

that one is clear and pretty direct I like it

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

Jesus, Satan, and Maria were living happily ever after until a psychotic Hercules showed up and tried to murder the messiah! Now Maria must unite the righteous might of the New Apostles to save Jesus *and* get Satan to the hospital on time in this crazy collection of Holy F*cked #1-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

When was the last time you read a comic book about a three friends who team up to fight against seemingly unbeatable odds, only to majestically triumph at the end? Yeah, I know. Like last week or something. Well, here's another. Except this one has Jesus, Satan, and a badass chick with a giant mecha. Collecting Holy F*cked #1-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

Knuckleball is pretty good!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

use the first one as back up the one before you made it funny :P

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

we should probably have a back up though. i doubt they'll go for that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

also funny :)

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

Hercules, you're being a d*ck. You totally lied to get into Maria's pants and now you kidnapped Jesus. What the hell, dude?! Whatever. You're gonna be pissed when the New Apostles beat your ass. Oh, BTW, would someone please take Satan to the hospital already? Sigh. This book collects Holy F*cked #1-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

now thats funny

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Hercules is being a d*ck. He totally lied to Maria to get into her pants and now he kidnapped Jesus. What the hell, Hercules?!? Whatever. He's gonna be pissed when the New Apostles show up. Oh, BTW, would someone please take Satan to the hospital already? Sigh. This book collects Holy F*cked #1-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

it's more important that they feel what kind of comic it is than that they know the story

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

yeah!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

okay, so less story and more funny shit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

it's actually perfectly fine It's just a whole lot more story you need to cover

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

pazaz

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:53pm PDT

okay, gtcha. what's it missing?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

I like it but it's not as exciting as the #1 one

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Jesus, Satan, and Maria were living happily ever after… until Hercules came to town and f*cked everything up! Can Maria unite the righteous might of the New Apostles to save Jesus AND get Satan to the hospital on time?!? Every second counts in this scintillating collection containing the hilarious Holy F*cked #1-4.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

okay, now for the TPB

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

dicktease

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

i think that one because the other two have issues. one doesn't actually describe the plot while the other teases something that's already been revealed

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:37pm PDT

yes!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:37pm PDT

thx After rescuing Earth from nuclear destruction in HOLY F*CK, Jesus and Satan are living a life of domestic bliss while Maria runs a homeless shelter. Sounds great, right? Not if you're Hercules. The "Muscles from Mt. Olympus" is out for biblical blood! Plus, what shocking news does Satan have for his macho messiah?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:37pm PDT

they funny

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

they're all pretty good!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

three versions: Just when you thought we couldn't top the sheer insanity of HOLY F*CK, we're bringing you… Domestic bliss! Pickup basketball on a skateboard! Homeless shelters! That's right, this issue has it all. Join Jesus, Satan, and Maria as they embark on an outrageous adventure that'll leave your knees weak and your naughty bits tingling. Jesus and Satan are living a life of domestic bliss while Maria runs a local homeless shelter. But someone has a problem with this happily ending for the heroes of HOLY F*CK… we'll give you a hint: his name begins with an "H" and ends with an "ercules". PLUS: Satan's got big news! After saving Earth from nuclear destruction in HOLY F*CK, Jesus and Satan are living a life of domestic bliss while Maria runs a local homeless shelter. Sounds great, right? Not if you're Hercules. The "Muscles from Mount Olympus" is out for biblical blood! Plus, what shocking news does Satan have for his macho messiah?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

scratch that it's a tad too long

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

After saving Earth from a nuclear apocalypse in HOLY F*CK, Jesus and Satan are living a life of domestic bliss while Maria runs a local homeless shelter. Sounds great, right? Not if you're Hercules. The "Muscles from Mount Olympus" is pissed off and out for blood! Plus, what shocking news does Satan have for his macho messiah?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

it needs to be edited, but it's a start

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

so silly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:54pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:54pm PDT

Just when you thought we couldn't top the sheer insanity of HOLY F*CK, we're bringing you… Domestic bliss! Pickup basketball on a skateboard! Homeless shelters! That's right, folks. This issue has it all, from full-frontal male nudity to angry ancient antagonists. Join Jesus, Satan, and Maria as they embark on another outrageous adventure that'll leave your knees weak and your naughty bits tingling!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:53pm PDT

FUCKING SWEEEET!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:49pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:47pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:28pm PDT

I'm dropping everything and doing covers!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:28pm PDT

I'm not surprised about the fullmoon thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:41pm PDT

(BTW apparently Leila del Duca has some bad blood with Action Lab so it's good I never talked to her about the variant. Also, I'm really stoked that we're gonna have you on the variant! I fucking love your variants!!!!)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:07pm PDT

So, yeah, good news is that we're on the right track with these covers and we should still be able to make it into the July catalog.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:05pm PDT

Also, I told him about your Comic-Con cover and he really likes the sound of it, so I'm gonna email it to him along with my mock-up idea for #1's Batman homage.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:05pm PDT

So basically drop everything else!!! Hahaha. We need to have these two covers done by about this time next week. You know how it is, the sooner the better.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:03pm PDT

He's also down with you doing the #1 variant and he'd like us to do something to tie-in with that Halloween thing that Dave emailed us about over the weekend. I'll write Dave back and let him know we're down for that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:02pm PDT

Now good news: I talked to Jason on the phone on his way to the convention. He likes the homage idea for the covers. He's down with the ones we've selected.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 4:00pm PDT

Bad news first: Heard back from Shawn about Dollman. He said he loves your art but it's not the direction Full Moon wants to go with their properties right now.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

OKAY! Everything just happened all at once.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 3:17pm PDT

k night night

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 3:03pm PDT

I'm off to sleepyland

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT

who's physically bigger... maria or satan?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

so far, this battery isn't charging... which would be a problem. this thing is like 25 yrs old, though. so it makes sense.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

I Know That Voice is soooooo good

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

I Know That Voice Indie Game Knuckleball (it's sports but it's so good) A League Of Ordinary Gentlemen (fucking insane... kinda makes me want to do a bowling comic) McConkey (another one that's sorta sports... but SO good) The Punk Singer Pumping Iron Reel Injun Rhyme & Reason Salinger Trek Nation (if you like Star Trek or are interested in why other people like it)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Hot Coffee (one of my favs, but it's very American... dunno if you ever heard about the old woman who sued McDonald's for spilling hot coffee...)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

sport bore me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

I'm watching urban legends now it's bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

if you like sports docs, i LOVE the 30 for 30 series

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

omg netflix docs are my shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

i think the TPB was especially under-ordered because i remember our initial number being like 200 but that seemed insanely low to me considering i know like 10 peeps planning to buy it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

do you know of any good documentaries on netflix?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

cewl

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

i just emailed jason for updated numbers on everything

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

hahaha nice!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

yeah! in this case they pretty much ordered it becuase they like me and it actually sold I was biking past the store and one of the guys came running out

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

NICE! well, in general, i think the trade was very under-ordered. our original numbers were shit for it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

soo the'll order a couple more

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

my LCS had 2 Holy F*ck trades but they were gone pretty much immediately

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

sounds good to me

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

1600%

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

hahaha you'll do fine just zoom in

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

but i'll let you be the judge of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

i'm just concerned that i might do a shitty job of it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

well it's no big deal

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I was affraid something like that might happen

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

happens even in the same scenes occasionally

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

sometimes colored differently, sometimes her regular skin tone

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

yeah....

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Maria's lips

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

It works

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

I try to make the Hail Marry stuff as technical and sharp as I can and Herc as Human as I can

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

fanfic exploiting a copyright mistake

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:30am PDT

exploit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:29am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:25am PDT

I like the movies I don't need to read the fanfic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:24am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:23am PDT

i suspect that most people do

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:23am PDT

I gave up very quickly

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

the lettering is horrifying

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

yup they're lazy

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

and in other panels, the inks disappear too

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

then the color disappears for some panels

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

they start out okay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:21am PDT

the worst part is when you actually try to read them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

but it does seem like a waste of time

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:15am PDT

I kinda get it

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

seems like an incredible waste of time

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

i just don't understand this

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:13am PDT

https://www.facebook.com/DoubleTakeComics

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:11am PDT

cool cool cool :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 1:10am PDT

The new page looks fucking great!!! Amazing layout and angles. And, yeah, go ahead... slow it down. I'm mad slow on this old ass computer, plus I'm going out of town for a few days next week. So it's all good. We're in no rush. Things are coming along great.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

I might have to slow down my schedule my shoulder is killing me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 6, 2015 at 12:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:44pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 6:03pm PDT

Leila del Duca, one of the people I had on my list for variants, just got nominated for the best newcomer Eisner. I hung out with her once and we were Facebook friends back when she still had a Facebook account hahaha! I sent her an email to congratulate her. Didn't say anything about a cover... but if she replies and still seems cool, I might ask. Gonna email Mahfood back now and tell him we can't do the price BUT I am going to politely ask him for a pull quote if he's down.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

i just saw on facebook that Jason is leaving for Wizard World Philly tomorrow... he's normally impossible to get a hold of the few days before a convention, so we may not hear back from him about the cover idea for days.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

I'm gonna catch me some Z's

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

i'll split the difference go with 1.5

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

I'd say a week is fine for a "status report"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

dunno depends I guess

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

i think, what, two weeks? that's like the "hey just following up" amount of time

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

guess you could send a reminder

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

except for Scott in accounting. he's pretty good.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

my assumption is that he's just like everyone else at Action Lab and fucking sucks at replying to emails

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

my guess is he gets to make the call on this himself... but i could be wrong

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

does shaw gave to discuss this stuff with someone else or does he decide?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

yeah!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

won't

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

as new opportunities open for us, hopefully it wn't

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

it shouldn't have be this way

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

i guess.... seems a bit insane to me, though

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

I expect it to take a while and If we don't get to pitch we'll probably hear nothing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

anymore

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

not much surprises me anywore

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

it's sort of astounding how unprofessional this company can be.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

still haven't heard back from Shawn about Dollman.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

it's still smart and useful tough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

yeah it helps that once I know what I want I don't need to do the random flats colors

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

just for flats

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

i used like 800

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

it's quite interesting this thing I'm coloring for abe for example the first 2 pages I did have 8 layers and the rest have 3

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

get low

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

I use a low amount of layers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

k, fuck the by panel thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

i figured

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

does not matter I merge it all anyways

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

oh, do you want the color separated by panel? or does it not matter?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

mine are often one or all of those

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

it's tough to make a mullet 1. look cool, 2. look badass, and 3. not look like bad 80s glamour hair

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

yeah it's pretty hard. I still strugle with Jezus's hair and I've drawn him for 150 pages?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

which was the toughest thing for me

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

also, great job on the shape of his hair

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

i already drew it and i can feel that i'll work well in my style

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

yeah the jesus one in particular helps a lot.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I taught these might inspire you :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

k

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I'll worry about veins too

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

COOL!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

what about veins?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

cool :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

i'll probably ignore the bruises and let you shade / tone that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

on page 13, is that's blood coming fro his nose and tears from his eyes, right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

true

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

sometimes

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

paper is tree

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

the comic after Holy F*cked I want to draw on paper

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

see, there ya go. hopes and dreams.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

yes I need to poop but I want to finish colloring backgrounds on a page

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

You have hopes and dreams. I respect that.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

I think I want a popsicle

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

I have a stoopid yet interesting idea for publishing webcomics

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I want to play in a punkband

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

yeah, what you said

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Comics is sequential images. a singel panel by itself should always be in something something of the whole

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

YES

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

NO

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

next time when I say but it works as an Image tell me I'm being stoopid

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

cboxdrop it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

hawt

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

done*

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

and yeah, i agree with you... the image is obviously better with it the way it is but i agree about the sequence being improved with it facing the other way

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

I'm almost doen fixing it :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

is that what you're thinking?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

because like you said, the silhouette is't affected by it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

personally, i think the easiest fix is to change the next to last panel and have the hand facing the other way...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

but I'll fix it :)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

this way it works best as an image but if I fix it it probably works a bit better as a sequence

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

how do you feel about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

hmmmm... i'd say fairly strong

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

boring same questions I might have not been in the zone

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

i'm fine with that

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

ohhhh you mean the silhouette

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:33am PDT

nah I don't think so

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

She launches a left hand but grabs him with a right hand!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 5, 2015 at 8:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

using heavy blacks Myke Mygnola

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I'm seriously thinking of poorly inking a drawing and signing it Jym Ly

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

the name part is the annoying part

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

i'm kinda hoping jason will suggest that after he sees the homage thing

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

what i really wanna do is just have a variant by you

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

kinda in limbo due to the regular cover situation

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

k

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

i haven't sent any since friday or saturday, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

who else did you mail?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

yeah I don't know

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

but even that might be reaching

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

conceivably we could get an extra 2000 from mahfood, that's my guess

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

basically cut a special deal off the side from our contract

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

i guess the one way we could do it say to ALE if you want his cover you can pay for it and keep all the profits from that variant

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

yeah, same here.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

I'd rather have another Aaron cover than pay that much

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

yeah and i love jim but i can't see a reason for me to pay for it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

hahaaha so do I

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

i have a hard time imagining a scenario where ALE wants to pay for it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i forwarded it to jason. i didn't say "will ale pick up the tab?" but i'll wait to see what he says

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

yeah. with her, i think it would probably be worth it in sales. her stuff sells so well. but for mahfood? i dunno, dude. that's like marvel rates where they're gonna sell like 10,000 of his cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

amanda connor would probably be similair if she would have time

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

yeah, i know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

oh wow

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

you got the email too! $1500

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i'm definitely not paying that. but i'll forward it to Jason to see if ALE is interested

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

okay tell me

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

*choke* Mahfood's rate!! *choke*

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

yeah well I'm kinda up for it If just doing a satan pin-up is good enough but we should wait to see what hapends with the covers

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

so i figured it was worth you knowing about it but not something we need to do now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

oh yeah fuck

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

hahaha fair point

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

and with this "name" variant jason wants

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

well depending on what happens with our regular cover, we may not even be eligible for this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

niple rings?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

much like the SDCC cover butttt with

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

and then show him the ideas

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

since we've got the homage for #3, what if we do all homages?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

"Daniel and I think we should go a different route with these covers...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

hahaha sorry

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

so a totally different email

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

alright then

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

okay, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

sure! don't bring up the variants thing tough he probably will himself

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

we can use your existing #1 and #2 covers as variants too, which is nice

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

so should i just tell this to Jason, that we think we should to the homage route instead?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

okay! we've got stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Jesus with a kinfe is good!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

it's pretty famous

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

probably the bending one

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:58am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

any kind of hercules homage would work too

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

yeah... is there some kind of famous comic book cover where people are eating?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

than we just need one for issue 2

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

cool we got plans

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

yeah totally

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

the elektra cover could be for #4

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

fits the tone we have too

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

that one is pretty classic

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

I was cooking :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

is there an elektra cover we could homage for Maria?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

GOOD IDEA!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

we should just do pointless homages for the whole series

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

new adventures of Jezus and Satan, butt buddies

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

than we can add text

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

aaaaand

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

i don't think it will.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

if you think it won't fuck up everything

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

k. and i can tell him about that idea?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

with Jesus and Satan?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

otherwise I'll draw:

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

tel him that I think the same about this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

fine with me

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

thoughts? changes? additions?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

i'm gonna email jason now. i decided i'm gonna say that 1. i don't have a problem with cover text when it's funny or adds context, but 2. i think this particular cover text is essentially arbitrary. it's not actually telling people who these characters are and it's not adding important context to the photos. however, 3. i understand that this is his decision and what he wants we eventually be what we have to do. while i have a opinion on this, at the end of the day i don't care that much. but i'm not enthusiastic about the text we're adding right now and i think the entire process is overkill.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

have you mailed him?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

don't go there :P

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

i wonder what kind of asinine text we'll be asked to add to it...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

I showed it to Abe he gave me that idea

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

good idea!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

If I have time tonight I'd like to add a badge

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

-_-

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:19am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

HAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

now I'm waiting for my editor to make up jokes

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

are you still waiting to hear back from them about jokes?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

I'm just soo ready to move on

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

that blows.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

I'm soooooo close to saying fuck it I'll stop working with you guys

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

that's fucked up.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

but sometimes it takes them weeks to reply if they like a joke

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

In my opinion I have been done since January 10th or something like that

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

jesus fucking hell. do you think you can get it done in time?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

less hipster jokes and more zombie jokes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

welll it either needs to be at the printer 15th of may or 15th july but the editor/publisher won't sign off on the book he keeps asking for more jokes

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

what are they doing exactly?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

yeah! I'm having almost the same problem with ZombieHipsters

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

so annoying

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

yeah I'm affraid of that too

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

clearly we're not going to make this solicitation cycle because what he wants to do with the covers

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

so yeah i dunno what to do

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

hehehe yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

in person

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

because at least i could say "but why?"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

probably

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

talking to him about it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

i feel like this would be so much easier in person rather than over email

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

sigh

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

yeah pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

yeah I think we could draw carebears on the cover and as long as it looks cool people would pick it up

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

he would love that!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

HAHAHA!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

won't they be more curious if there's nothing there and they have to flip through it?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

how will identifying jesus and hercules make people read it?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

it's not improving it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

i don't either! what i have a problem with is this text on this cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

yeah I have nothing agains text perse...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

but that also seems pointless to me

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

and i was thinking about emailing it to him and being like "i understand that ultimately this is your decisions, but here are a few reasons why i think we don't need any text"

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

i made this image of some of my favorite covers, all of which have no caption or exposition text

Nick MarinoMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

it looks so dumb.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 4, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

also yellow cross on a red board? that looks like the Danish flag

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

ugh I didn't even think he has good points

Nick MarinoSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Yeah, I hear ya. I'm like "Good points. You're still wrong, though. The text looks dumb."

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

I don't know what to say either man thats why drunk me just wanted to make a new cover

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 3, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 3, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Yeah I was was waiting for you to reply before I read the email. gonna check it now. I'm glad the show was fun and you sold books!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 3, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:54pm PDT

IF we do it we do Gesus

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:54pm PDT

why would he have his own initials on his skateboard?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

thats just silly

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

nope

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:53pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

that would be perfect

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:51pm PDT

it's super funny tough

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:51pm PDT

but it looks like ass and clutters up a gorgeous design.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

so i made the jesus arrow.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

it works on your original cover because the whole original cast is there

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

the "who is this asshole?" arrow doesn't make sense on its own.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:50pm PDT

good stuff

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 9:49pm PDT

they're so fucking dumb.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

oh geez i feel like that might be even worse!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

yeah it's like 50/50

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 2, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

tell him I'm drawing a con excusive but not what it's gonna be

Daniel Arruda Massa, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:22am PST

i think the backups are fairly unnecessary to the pitch, though

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:22am PST

i think the color will, but i also think i should letter the whole thing first

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:22am PST

morally questionable female Batman knockoff fucks her teen sidekick? WHO DOESN'T WANT THAT?!?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:22am PST

I am not really in a hurry to color/do backups, but I don't think that should influence any pitches

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:21am PST

but ye I hate this part

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:21am PST

I believe people want to read this

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

but the waiting game SUCKS

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

partially because the book is awesome and partially because no one else is doing it like this

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

probs

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

i really do believe it'll all work out wonderfully in the end for us

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:20am PST

this is why no one does this!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:19am PST

hahahaha no it hasn't

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:19am PST

but so far that hasn't worked to our advantage! hahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:19am PST

and i've heard the advice "do what nobody else is doing"

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:18am PST

in a way, i love what we did, which was make a fucked up funny superhero comic when almost nobody is doing this kind of thing (save for Deadpool and Harley Quinn... and those are doing it PG-13ish, really)

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:18am PST

at SDCC Jason tried to talk about it when he was drunk but I kinda didn't feel like it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:17am PST

probs

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:17am PST

which is why they haven't really said much, i assume

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:17am PST

yes they do

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:17am PST

and i think they both know we wouldn't mind going somewhere else

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:16am PST

Dave and Jason know we're doing Cougar and Cub

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:16am PST

and then publishers might (MIGHT... very slight might) reach out to us

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:16am PST

hahahaha that would be nice

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:16am PST

what we need to do is win a few end of the year awards for HF

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

but they're not easy to contact

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

and there are still companies i'd like to contact

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

neither do I

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

i think we can probably repitch it to a few of them once its complete

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

i dunno what to do in this situation!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:15am PST

but honestly

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:14am PST

we should probably come up with a good plan

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:14am PST

hahahaha yeah you crushed it!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:14am PST

mhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:14am PST

probably becuase I did 2 issues in 5 weeks :3

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:14am PST

ALE, Alterna, Dynamite, 1First

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

not many left

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:13am PST

ye cool just feels longer

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:12am PST

Lemme look at our second wave...

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:12am PST

But it hasn't even been two months yet.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:12am PST

Well, we contacted our "first wave" of companies and really didn't hear much back.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:09am PST

for finding a publisher?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:08am PST

what is our plan right now?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:08am PST

yesh

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:08am PST

whenever the time is right

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:08am PST

i'll do some development on both ideas and then you can just pick whatever you like best

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

yeah i love the trading card thing too

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

thought you had a spin on the idea

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:06am PST

i read your message wrong

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:05am PST

you had the tardingcard idea

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

plz tell me about your card idea

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

i meant like down the line in the future

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

oh of course!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Fi_C_X8y1y0ia1BCxQ9BKlJnfc3Rhfjq_GbzERuk9e8/edit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

but I was also into the card things

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

yes butttt I need a break ;P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:02am PST

ohhh yeee

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:02am PST

hahaha the romance backups

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:01am PST

whatarewetalkingaout?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:00am PST

mh?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:00am PST

you still feeling that angle?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:00am PST

so Passionate Percival, Knight of Desire

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:56am PST

ye it's pretty good

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:56am PST

lots of great moments

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:56am PST

might be my fave of the series, though

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:55am PST

probably

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:53am PST

it's the least interesting one for press

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:53am PST

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:52am PST

especially cuz it's our third issue in a four issue series

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:52am PST

i'm interested to see if that gets us more coverage, the same, or less

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:52am PST

and then action lab sent ours out the following day, which is super early for them

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:52am PST

i sent out our press email one day early this week

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:51am PST

atleast 5 people read our comics

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:51am PST

yeah we do alright

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:48am PST

for an actionlab book we get pretty okay attention

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:48am PST

fine*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:48am PST

once a month seems fne

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:48am PST

but that feels kinda tacky to me

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:47am PST

i guess i could bug them more

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:47am PST

i mean, i only email bloggers once a month with the new issues

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:45am PST

ohhh well

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:44am PST

mjeeehwhahahhllkh

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:43am PST

for now, we're slumming it :(

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:43am PST

we gotta be around for a couple more years before we get the really good interviews

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:43am PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:42am PST

we've had better email interviews

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:42am PST

probably his interviewing skills were quite poor

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:42am PST

he just strikes me as the type of person to do a totally shit job full of typos and inaccuracies so that's why i haven't bothered him to post it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:38am PST

hehehe maybe

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

unless he pissed that i surprised him?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

he could have told us

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

yup

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

whateveeer

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

it's pretty fucking rude

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

but still

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

so i dunno how far down we are on it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

ye maybe it's still comming

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

like, a friend told me he knew Caleb had like a list of 10-20 peeps to talk to

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

i know he was doing a ton of them at once

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

but he has posted other interviews

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:37am PST

what a fucking weirdo

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:36am PST

no

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:36am PST

he didn't post it, did he?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:36am PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 10:36am PST

that Caleb or whatever guy sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:33am PST

understandable

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:25am PST

i'm jealous of my fake self

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:25am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:19am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:17am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 9:16am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 8:37am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 6:27am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 4:33am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 4:33am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:26pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:25pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:25pm PST

like 1/3 or 1/4 of that

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:25pm PST

even less, really

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:24pm PST

i think if you slid it over half that distance, it would be pefectamundo

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:24pm PST

like you how there's that space between the left panel border and the pow?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:23pm PST

naw it's cool

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:23pm PST

just a suggestion on my part. if you'd rather leave it as is, i can work with it!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:22pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:22pm PST

DO YOU KNOW ME AT ALL????

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:12pm PST

but ye if you want me to

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 12, 2015 at 11:11pm PST

there is also space to put it over the body

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:28pm PST

Would you be down with moving everything to the left just a tiny bit? That way I'll have a little more room for your dialogue.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:26pm PST

Oh and looking at the final page, I have a suggestion for the last panel!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:25pm PST

Especially with a slightly different coloring style. They'll totally pop

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

As for the flashback panels, I think they work really well.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, November 12, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 6:46pm PST

Holy F*ckery

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 6:46pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:49am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:45am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:13am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:13am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:12am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

I don't know anything about that, but ye I would just do it

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

this might be our only way to get previews out there

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

i'm just like

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

i don't fucking know

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:11am PST

might get spammed for attachments

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:10am PST

why not?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:10am PST

oh ehm

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:10am PST

promo email, that is

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:10am PST

thoughts?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:10am PST

can't decide if i want to embed the preview pages of #3 in my email

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:09am PST

ugh story of my life

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:08am PST

I'm also a little lazy

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 11:07am PST

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:59am PST

but finish an issue for print feels much better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:56am PST

I like the idea of having it as a regular thing, and like an accumulating work... pile

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:51am PST

honestly, they're good for learning but unless you already have a big online fanbase, i don't know that they're worth the energy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:51am PST

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:50am PST

yeah i think that's a good reason right there not to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:49am PST

but I find it harder to motivate myself to make webcomics partially due to me not being a huge van of them in the first place

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:48am PST

part of me wants to do a webcomic

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:44am PST

i canjoyt type todaya

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:44am PST

yer

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:44am PST

yep, it's yet thangy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:26am PST

it's what I'm into

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:25am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:25am PST

the art also kinda looks like a mignola verse book

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:23am PST

color choices

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:23am PST

reeaaaallyy

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:23am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:23am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:23am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:22am PST

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 10:22am PST

flaaaatttstststststs done ish, but done for today

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:41am PST

I was about to say that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:41am PST

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:41am PST

wasn't he the guy they wanted you to replace?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:41am PST

maybe *he quit

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:40am PST

but ya know what? maybe we quit and that's why they were asking me

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:40am PST

jamal, of course

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:40am PST

who is supposed to send out the press shit?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:40am PST

ugh

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:38am PST

Which means that our last two issues and TPB will potentially have little to no push from the company in regards to reviews and previews.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:37am PST

Another reason to be annoyed with Action Lab: they have a shitload of books coming out this week and no one sent out any press / preview emails about them.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:20am PST

i got the proof for Holy F*cked #4 yesterday so i guess it's going out this weekend

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:20am PST

alright, hopefully we'll have these quotes soon and we can wrap up dis back cover!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:11am PST

hahahahaha yeah!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:11am PST

I know and you shouldn't but I can, may and will

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:08am PST

oooo i can't compare like that, i love em all

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:05am PST

ye I think it's a bit better than #4

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:04am PST

all in all, i'm loving these pages!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:04am PST

i paced it so that things get almost intimate between the brains and cougar before he freaks out and tries to kill her so i think you really captured that quiet well

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:04am PST

This is also the "quiet before the storm" page

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

I love that the ultimate antagonist is a gross brain in chair!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

hehehe it's kinda boring

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

It's exquisite.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

ofcourse

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

And that WHUMP!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

Plus, color will go a loooong way towards selling it.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:03am PST

ye most 70's super hero shit is kinda crap

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:02am PST

I think it's going to be an incredibly effective scene.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:02am PST

I love the simplicity and mood of those flashback panels.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 9:02am PST

They're both absolutely fucking amazing!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 7:43am PST

not to crazy about the first one of these, but it's a hard page

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:02am PST

it is hard! but honestly it just completely left my brain. i started doing other things.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:02am PST

hahaha oh wellll

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:01am PST

and i was like "i should just save it for tomorrow"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:01am PST

it's to hard

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 11, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:51pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:51pm PST

and Anansi is trying to coordinate things so that she kills Jesus

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

thats why Maria could kill zeus

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

and he's using Maria to kill all of the other gods

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

so like Anansi's goal is to be the only god left

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:50pm PST

so dark

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

whut whut?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

maybe Maria is the Anti-God

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

my idea is dumb, though

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

NICE SKETCH

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:49pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Maria has been hunting for Anansi and Rad

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:48pm PST

Anansi kidnapped Rad from the nursery.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:47pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:44pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:44pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:44pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:43pm PST

ye like a sincity/furyroad mix

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:43pm PST

but yeah maria hunting evil gods would be a great opener

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:42pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:42pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:42pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:40pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

yup all bald and shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

it could be cool too if Rad's a cult leader but she's still just a child

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

she would be a great Secret Pope

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:39pm PST

hahaha thats good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

I had an image in my head of Maria hunting rouge gods in south america as the new secret pope

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

Rad becomes the cult leader!!! :O

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

so the story is Jesus vs. his daughter

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

like she becomes this totally phony religious leader

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

hahaha or Rad becomes everything that Jesus and Satan hate

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

and then she busts out in the fourth issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

that would be a good ending for a third issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

oooo Rad gets eaten

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

especially eaten

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

with Rad born, they don't want her to get attacked

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:36pm PST

like they decide they're too out in the open

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:36pm PST

i feel like Jesus and Satan would wanna move after Holy F*cked

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:36pm PST

it is

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:36pm PST

Jesus loves me and it's kinda creepy

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:30pm PST

YES

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:30pm PST

and Jesus falls in love with you instead

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:30pm PST

Satan doesn't exist in this dimension

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:29pm PST

OMG love it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:29pm PST

I have an image of Jezus going to this dimension and finding out our Jezus is dead

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:28pm PST

i have this mental image of Jesus being seduced by Aphrodite and Satan getting all jealous

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:28pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:23pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:20pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

and hopefully whatever goes there will be much smaller than kelly's quote so we'll have room to breath

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:09pm PST

that flows well

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:09pm PST

i also really like the quote underneath it on top of black

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:08pm PST

most of all, i like the Jesus and Satan kiss with the slight outline on it. it works so well in that position.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

ofcourse

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

i know it ties into the first TPB, but we might not need it depending on the quotes we get

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

i think there's a chance we might be able to drop the large yellow tagline up top (or shorten it) and kind open up the entire design a bit

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

i like where this is going!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 1:59pm PST

I don't like the lack of maria but I like the #2 cover better than the #4 cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 1:59pm PST

it's not quite there, but it's getting closer

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

cuz its dumb

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

but then they basically offered to give it to me for free for a year

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

and i called to cancel it today

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

so i sorta got cable TV last month

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:13pm PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:13pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:13pm PST

cewl cewl cewl :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

also, i really just wanted to make that bust your balls pun. not actually saying you need to do anything.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

it's the situation that doesn't make any sense

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

your art is fantastic

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

the problem is that it's a brain exploding while getting stabbed by a dildo

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

no it's fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

I don't think I can make it better really

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

...I'M NOT GONNA BUST YOUR BALLS ABOUT IT!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

for a moment there i was gonna suggest maybe you should redraw the dildo, but then i decided...

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

hahah

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

50 is good!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

atleast 50%

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:59am PST

but i'm sure colors will make everything 100% clear

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:59am PST

my only concern is that it's hard to tell he's stabbing The Brains with the dildo knife

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:58am PST

tres goopy

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:58am PST

LOOK KICKASS!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:56am PST

just 5 pages to go

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:50am PST

story of my life :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:49am PST

yeah it's tough to design around text that you don't have

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:47am PST

haha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:47am PST

it more like "some text should be here, probably"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:47am PST

yes and part of it is the text itself

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:46am PST

i think the horizontal text right above the diagonal text feels a bit jarring but it's also in progress so i know that could easily change

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:46am PST

as do I

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:45am PST

I like where this is going!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:25am PST

also it still needs background images of some kind

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:14am PST

in the bottom right we would have the adult rating warning thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:13am PST

ok, I actually like the balance in this basic design

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:07am PST

I might have a basic design...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 11:04am PST

allot of the design also depends on the amount of text

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:52am PST

ye fine with me

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:52am PST

i asked aaron to have his quote to me by the weekend. that sound good?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:50am PST

SFX on top of SFX!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!! Brilliant idea.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:48am PST

backcover time

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:44am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:41am PST

we could always use art from the backmatter too... hehehehehe do something totally insane about us instead of the book...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 10:38am PST

I know

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:46am PST

i like the vhoosh up top cuz it has action but honestly i'd rather have more of your awesome drawings on there than action for action's sake. plus, that vhoosh is just like a blambot font right? it's missing the arruda massa SFX magic if you ask me. hehe hehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:45am PST

suuuree!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:42am PST

I might :) I'm gonna finish inking a panel and then I'll lok if it fits

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:41am PST

it's smoochtastic

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:41am PST

speaking of which, we should actually put that kiss on the back cover!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:37am PST

then we can dig through our reviews for one more

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:37am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:37am PST

ye! sure

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:37am PST

you down with that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:37am PST

also, Chris had the awesome idea of asking Thomas from Orbital for a pull quote!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:36am PST

yeah i gotta get the quote from Aaron

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:30am PST

gotta finish that back cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:28am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 9:04am PST

sorry, had to make that stupid fake cover thing. as you can now see, of course.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:56am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:55am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:41am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:40am PST

<3

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:39am PST

it's so dumb

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:39am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:35am PST

hahaha yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:35am PST

this is awful

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:35am PST

i've spent more time trying to figure out what to tweet than i would tweeting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:33am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

i'm tweeting ONCE AN HOUR

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

i can't really get into it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

and when i try to do more of it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

i probably feel a stronger one than you, for example

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:29am PST

maybe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

like some people feel a stronger ego desire to communicate than we do, i think

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

part of it is an ego thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

i dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

i think maybe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

i hear ya

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:28am PST

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:20am PST

I'd also like to put more shit on tumblr and stuff, but most of the things I do is for stuff that I don't want to just put out without a good reason

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:18am PST

a fruit

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:18am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:17am PST

OPINOONA

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:17am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:17am PST

I'm not always sure if I have opinions

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:16am PST

like, i just don't think my opinions are that special

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:16am PST

same

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:16am PST

this is why i don't tweet much

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:16am PST

i have nothing to say

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:15am PST

I'm a fucking poet

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:15am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:15am PST

i rt'd it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

nice tweet

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

probably not

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

i don't think

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

and replies don't count

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

I don't think I could keep it up for long

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

i'm gonna do like one tweet an hour

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:14am PST

yeah you should do this experiment with me

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:13am PST

I'll try tweeting more random crap

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:12am PST

i need a good first tweet, though...

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:12am PST

i'll try it from now until saturday

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:12am PST

probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:12am PST

if i tripled that, how would my followers change?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:11am PST

like, i tweet 2-5 times a day

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:11am PST

i kinda wanna do an experiment now and see if i gain followers relative to how often i tweet

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:11am PST

but i don't love it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

i like it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

I just don't like that platform

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

but it works

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

i just cant possibly care enough to tweet like that

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:10am PST

and they have 25-30k tweets!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:09am PST

i've got like 8000

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:09am PST

and even though i've been on there longer, they've tweet about three times as much as i have

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:09am PST

sophie and kelly have about 3 times the followers i have

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:08am PST

probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:08am PST

i think twitter followers is somewhat proportional to the number of times that you tweet

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:07am PST

to hard poops

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:07am PST

that i can relate

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:06am PST

what does that say about you :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:05am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:05am PST

i just hearted it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:05am PST

i care

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:04am PST

I get to tweet about poop and no one cares

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:04am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:04am PST

a modest but devoted following

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:03am PST

I have 82 followers on twitter

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:03am PST

it helps their "image" which i guess might help ours?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:02am PST

i wonder what kind of stupid bullshit goes on at the bigger ones

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:02am PST

it's like at an entry level company

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:02am PST

if that's what it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:02am PST

fucking bullshit, who is that helping?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:01am PST

HAHAHAHA!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:01am PST

that's part of our "marketing" expenses

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:01am PST

but that's what our profits get spent on

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:01am PST

i mean, i get it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:00am PST

if you look at their followers chronologically, that is.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:00am PST

weird shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:00am PST

they have like 200 followers and then suddenly it's like 2500 fake accounts and then it's more real followers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:00am PST

so? just fucking post shit and make your artists and shit follow you

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 8:00am PST

i went through and looked at all of their followers when i started helping a few months ahp

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:59am PST

probably because no one was following them

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:59am PST

why? i dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:59am PST

Danger Zone twitter i should add

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:58am PST

why?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:58am PST

whuuut

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:57am PST

i know for sure that the Action Lab twitter bought at least 2000 if not 3000 fake followers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:57am PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:56am PST

they must buy fake likes or something unless they're celebrities

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:56am PST

i dont understand how people get like 2789 likes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:56am PST

I only have 107

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:55am PST

nice!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:55am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:52am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:51am PST

it's epic cut and paste levels

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:51am PST

and actually anticipated you using that shot anyway

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:51am PST

i got a kick out of that

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:51am PST

i know!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:51am PST

the car driving away is the same as in #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:50am PST

Feelgood is nice and creepy.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:48am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:48am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:48am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:48am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:47am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:47am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:47am PST

HAHAHA! You son of a bitch!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 5:36am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 5:36am PST

I expect to be able to do one more today

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 11:43pm PST

thats nice :)

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 10:49pm PST

"I was surprised reading it. I thought you and Daniel might be doing a cutsie kids comic. It becomes clear later on the rooftop that it is not. Nice job. I liked the color of the blood when Cougar punches that driver. It looks like she's beating coffee out of him. I think that's my blood color. Cougar really, really abused her position of power, authority, and leadership when she slept with Cub. I'm curious to read the rest. I hope someone publishes it for you two!"

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 10:49pm PST

My bud Francisco Gruel read CnC #1 and said:

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

If you could just set up a camera and do it yourself, it would probably be a lot easier.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. I guess it being a group project makes it more annoying.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:09pm PST

but I trust you

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:09pm PST

In comics I like that if something isn't clear or good enough I am the only one to blame or sometimes you....

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

I am also a control freak so that doesn't help

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

it does not interest me at all

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

i think that could be cool!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

oh fun

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

but on the internets

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

like a live tv show talkshow style

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

live stream like how?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 9, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

UGH

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 9, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:38am PST

Passionate Percival in... "Prank me, kiss me, kill me!" "She crawled into my heart!" "My priest, my lover!" "A normal kind of romance!" "I fell in love with a pimp!"

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:38am PST

Ideas:

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:38am PST

So if we do the romance story backups, I thought we could do one for each of the villains (except for Diaper Rash, since he's a baby and that would be creepy).

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:37am PST

The character positions and expressions are just perfect.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:37am PST

Both so fucking good.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:37am PST

AMAZING PAGES!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 4:59am PST

have to do some coloring the rest of the day

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 4:59am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:11am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:10am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:09am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:08am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:08am PST

maybe an outside character who interacts with the rogues

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:05am PST

noice

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:05am PST

"She Robbed the Bank... and Stole My Heart!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:00am PST

sure

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:00am PST

what if they're told from the POV of the henchies?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:00am PST

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:59am PST

the fun part of an outside character is that we can still keep the rest of the story fresh

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:57am PST

so if you just read them there's still something there

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:57am PST

of a theme that connects all of them

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:57am PST

i like the idea

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:55am PST

I think all the ideas are good

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:55am PST

DONE

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:54am PST

and I'll write them and you'll draw them

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:54am PST

could be cool

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:54am PST

but in a super cartoony style

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:54am PST

and these stories are kinda pulpy, like noir

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:53am PST

Megaville's gritty cop who follows all of Cougar's cases

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:53am PST

From the Files of Detective Spunk

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:53am PST

another idea

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:53am PST

ahaha yeah but you could do it like Teen Titans GO!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:52am PST

the animated series would not be to different from the normal art style :P

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:51am PST

or Cougar and Cub the animated series

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:50am PST

like cartoon cats

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:50am PST

they're all cats

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:50am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:50am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:49am PST

Pussy and Kitten

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:49am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:49am PST

yesss

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:49am PST

like a fucking chibi thing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:48am PST

OOHHH

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:48am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:48am PST

pfooo depends on what we come up with

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:47am PST

also, what style would you want to work in? same style as the book or something else?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:47am PST

ye build the world

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:47am PST

like character names and backstories and stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

was to reveal info that wasn't organically a part of the story

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

like the bios

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

so my goal with the backmatter

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

yeah i likes

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

got it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

4 regular

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

so would that be 4 webcomic size pages or 4 regular size pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:46am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:45am PST

oh like the webcomic thingy?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:45am PST

up*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:45am PST

yes it is, and we can always split the pages op again

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

8 pgs would probably be excessive

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

4 pgs is plenty long enough for me

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

well my gut says

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

yeah that's best you're right

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

ohhh and just worry about how you would wanna do it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44am PST

I try not to worry about how a publisher could put it out

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:43am PST

ye it's no biggie

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:42am PST

at the conventions, no one care about the $5 price

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:42am PST

i don't mind issues that cost more if they're giving people more

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:42am PST

yeah my thing is

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:42am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:42am PST

the money part I am not to crazy about I guess, but I think it would be fun to add more shit

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:41am PST

good or bad?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:41am PST

then it's clearly $5 issues instead

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:41am PST

of having each issue be on the longer side

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:41am PST

how much did you like the idea

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:41am PST

that would work well, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:40am PST

4 pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:40am PST

good question depends I guess

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:40am PST

how long should backups be?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:39am PST

if each issue is 22 pgs

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:39am PST

we should consider it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:39am PST

if we can some up with backups worth doing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:39am PST

okay so maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:38am PST

I like it too branding sucks

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:38am PST

thing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:38am PST

but the branding think seems like a pain

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:38am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:34am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:33am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:21am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:20am PST

I really don't care I'm not gonna give it away

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:20am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:20am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

they don't even give me extra comps anymore despite the fact that i work on the twitter now too. they're a fucking mess.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

they didn't even tell me it was in this months previews or anything

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

don't think so

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

because those cheap mutherfuckers probably won't mail you any

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

thanks :3

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:19am PST

noice

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:18am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:18am PST

maybe. not sure. do you mean your itty bitty bunnies cover?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:18am PST

i missed the word "other" in there

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:18am PST

OH wait

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:17am PST

not that i know of... i mean, i haven't emailed Diamond directly or anything. why do you ask?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:17am PST

his stuff is magic, though! especially his work with John Byrne and Paul Smith.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:17am PST

oh one thing, can you order other AL books for cheaper as well?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:16am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:16am PST

don't worry about it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:16am PST

but i can always pick some up whenever comixology has a sale if you're curious

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:16am PST

i don;t think i have any right now

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:16am PST

gotcha.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:15am PST

no, not unless you tell me to look at something

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:15am PST

do you still log into my comixology account?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:15am PST

hehe I got 2 issues of that

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:14am PST

though i think that's some of his most dull 80s stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:14am PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:11am PST

did he do wolverine with Frank Miller?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:11am PST

not sure I have any claremont

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:10am PST

like Claremont did to great effect

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:10am PST

with something that at least elaborates on the emotions of the moment

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:09am PST

you can show a character's internal life

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:08am PST

it's such a wasted opportunity, though!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:08am PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:08am PST

ugh this punch broke my arm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:08am PST

hehehe ye but I think it's cute/funny

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:08am PST

granted, almost all of the old golden age and early silver age writers did it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:07am PST

i mean, it's kinda funny... but i think it 's one of stan lee's weakest things as a writer

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:07am PST

my arm... it hurts so much from the vulture's firm grasp! *panel of vulture grabbing spidey's arm*

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:06am PST

oh i hate that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:01am PST

I like how they always contextualised everything they did

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:00am PST

I was reading some old spiderman the other day

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 8, 2015 at 12:00am PST

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:59pm PST

Than just the first and last pages of each issue.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:59pm PST

Yeah I figured we needed a bit more.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:57pm PST

I love narration for this comic

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:57pm PST

I think you're gonna dig it. Lots of fun dialogue additions. Also adding a bit more narration because I love the corny voice.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:56pm PST

ye whatever works for you man :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

Also, it's a chance for me to practice making a lettering script.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

But this will give you a chance to approve everything before I do the word balloons!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

It's sort of unnecessary because I already laid the text out on the pages so I'm actually just copying it from the pages into a document.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:54pm PST

I'm putting together the lettering script for Cougar and Cub #2.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 11:10pm PST

dunno :3

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 4:32pm PST

well that's still cool! how many did they bring?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 3:20pm PST

just the two books

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 3:20pm PST

nope

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 3:19pm PST

yeah it rocks that they sold them!!!! did you get to sign any of the books that sold before you got there?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:41pm PST

so ye it sucked that I was there for like no reason but it's good taht they sold books

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

welll when I got there there were only two of my books left

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:21pm PST

how was the event?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:19pm PST

I like it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:19pm PST

it's a cool idea

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:12pm PST

is it a good idea or one of my crazy waking up ideas?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:12pm PST

BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK???

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 2:10pm PST

hehehe I got what you were talking about

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:48am PST

Haha for Cougar and Cub. Just realized I never specified which comic book I'm talking about.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:47am PST

Is that a good idea?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:47am PST

Basically $5 instead of $4.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:46am PST

Also, with a slightly higher page count, the issues can be priced a dollar more, which may be attractive to publishers.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:46am PST

We can use the backups to flesh out stuff like character names and connections that we don't see in the main story.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:45am PST

People loved our backups in Holy F*ck. I get people at cons and tweets and even some reviews that say they miss them.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:44am PST

...and instead of having those character bios, we put backup stories in each issue?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:44am PST

What if we actually did go all Silver Age and call the series "Frisky Comics" or "Roaring Tales" or something...

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:43am PST

And I was thinking...

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:43am PST

This morning, I was reading some more from one of my favorite websites that goes through the Marvel universe chronologically. Stuff like this: http://www.supermegamonkey.net/chronocomic/entries/tales_of_suspense_53.shtml

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:42am PST

So I always have these crazy ideas when I'm laying in bed in the morning. Way too ambitious or weird or whatever.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:39am PST

I love the drama. The linework rocks! And the lettering on BOOM is excellent! :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 7, 2015 at 8:38am PST

PUUUURRRRFECT!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:58pm PST

boom

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

emailing chris next.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

so that way they don't have much risk involved.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

emailed meltdown. i basically said "what if you order the books and keep all of the profits? also, i can buy whatever you have left for 50% off cover price."

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

k byeee

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

ok no more computer time

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:46pm PST

thats probably more or less what will happen

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

hehehe yee

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

hahah

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

it'll have

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

fuck

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

*it'll habe

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

like your line style will be there

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

you could probably trace just about any font for the logo and it would look fuckin sick because it'll hand your hand in it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

the fact is that you made them your own with your personal style

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

that's okay

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

there are like at least a dozen styles there!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

some of them are kinda traced

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

even just the double page spread!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

thanks man

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

i'm going through the pages and looking at all of your styles

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

your lettering in this book is so amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

fair point

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

you should try it!!! cuz then there's that consistency between them. i mean, i figure it's worth a shot just to see how it looks.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

maybe dunno might be to boring

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

ah okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

the Cs in the logo might look cool if they're drawn the same way they appear on Cougar and Cub's costumes

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

not sure how else to say it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

how do you mean?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

i think that the C in the logo might work well if it's the same style as the C on the costumes. you?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

allllll of them

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

i dunno, that's tricky

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

the U?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

i dunno couldn't figure it out really

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

on a specific letter?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

great idea

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

I tried to work the mask shape into the logo

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

looove it

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

the swirls!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

that's awesome

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

OH WOW

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

that could be pretty cool

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

that could be cool for our AND

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

it's in the circle

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

on the Jungle Action cover

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

the way they did THE

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

just realized something

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

oooooo

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

i like the subtle serifs on the B and P

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

would look super good on the word COUGAR

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

ye also awesome

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

i prefer the Kirby series logo but that one is fucking awesome too

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

it's so good

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:14pm PST

I'm a sucker for most things Black Panther, especially the look of his 70s books.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:13pm PST

That's one of my favorite Silver Age logos!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:12pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:12pm PST

love that logo

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Phantom_Detective

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

hahahahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

which means we can do a Zero comic if we get in at DC :D

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

so DC bought Quality comics

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

yesh there are a bunch of ghost detectives I think

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

so many great golden age characters

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

NICE

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

cash in on that before the movie

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Zero,_Ghost_Detective

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

riding the Doctor Strange zeitgeist

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

yeah and my only angle is superhero

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

maybe I love that shit, but I don't know what angle i'd take

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

"I need 3 CCs of ecto-plasm stat or this goblin is going into undead cardiac arrest!!!"

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

maybe we should do something like that

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

"Ghost Doctor" is pretty amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

cewl

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

ditko does a lot of stuff like that in his new work

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

very cool technique

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

i like the shading / lines on the letters

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:57am PST

it's not perfect but I like it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:57am PST

I like the old ghost themed characters

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:56am PST

The Savage Dragon logo has some things I'm not crazy about (too thick line on Dragon, unnecessarily long drop shadow too) but overall it's pretty cool.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:55am PST

That Grimm logo is classy!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:52am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:52am PST

ohh my

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:48am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:48am PST

I like the old savage dragon logo

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:40am PST

don't have time to do it now

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:36am PST

yes guess so

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:35am PST

the others are pretty simple in comparison

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:35am PST

the R G and A

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:34am PST

because it has the trickiest letters in it already solved

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:34am PST

it would work well for us

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:34am PST

yee

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:34am PST

That font is SICK!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:32am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:29am PST

OMG

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:29am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:26am PST

that sucks

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:26am PST

and any commercial use of the word is basically owned by the company

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:26am PST

it's actually a brand

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:26am PST

i found out recently that moxie isn't a regular ol' adjective

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

BUT

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

i'm pretty partial to Moxie Comix

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

Tales of Spunk

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

Spunky Comics

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:25am PST

Jizz comics

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:24am PST

ye that could work

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:23am PST

or Frisky Tales

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:23am PST

maybe Frisky Comics

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:23am PST

if we did

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:23am PST

BUT

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:23am PST

but then i think it becomes a little confusing

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

i wish we could do that with Cougar and Cub

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

ye thats also cool

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

Strange Tales

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

Whiz Comics

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

Action Comics

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

they appeared in other titles

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

is how characters didn't have their own titles

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

something i love about old school comics

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:22am PST

hahahah

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:21am PST

also, i just looked at a bunch of silver age logos... they suck!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:17am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:17am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:16am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 11:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:19am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:17am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:17am PST

i'm sooooo burnt out on ALE right now

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:17am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:17am PST

probs not

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:16am PST

i wonder if i can order directly from diamond

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:16am PST

that*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:16am PST

I understand taht

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:16am PST

i care less about not making money and more about the annoyingness of ordering books through action lab.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:15am PST

i need to email francisco for some clarification on that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

ugh that does suck

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

i'd barely even pay for the books

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

which would SUUUUUCK

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

and the split is 50/50 on sales

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

mhh

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

speaking of which, i think i have to bring my own books to this Meltdown signing

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

oh i'll take a freebie but i think they were just scouting for people to pay for tables

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:14am PST

ehhh fuckit

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:13am PST

yeah it is pretty farrrr

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:13am PST

I did the one and it was decent, just because HF is so far from the norm

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:12am PST

ye but if the table is free it might be okay

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:11am PST

anime shows rock from a fan perspective but i think exhibiting at them with original comics is typically a meh prospect

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:11am PST

derp

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:11am PST

and i was like "would Holy F*ck even be a good fit? also, i'll take a free table but i'm not interesting in paying for one." and of course no reply in two days hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:10am PST

nice! I'd like to do a couple of those

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:10am PST

i had an anime show contact me this week

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:10am PST

when your book is especially unconventional for the show

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:10am PST

sometimes those work out best though!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:09am PST

I have an assigned signing time

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:09am PST

oh yeah that is a bit unusual

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:09am PST

ye and it's like a bookfair and I'm there with the distributer

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:09am PST

never been to the show before?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:08am PST

I don't know what to expect

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:07am PST

only kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:00am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 10:00am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:57am PST

well someone can start a cult around food and thet someone can be food

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:57am PST

pfoe ehmmmm

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:56am PST

so yeah dunno, just wondering if there's a good way to mix both ideas together, kinda kill all birds with all stones and watch them plummet, landing in a puddle of dirty water and bird blood

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:53am PST

yaz

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 6, 2015 at 9:29am PST

food cult

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:33am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:32am PST

so i was thinking...

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:32am PST

haha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:32am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 6, 2015 at 8:32am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 2:41pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 2:40pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:17am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:16am PST

well surf and punk are pretty similar

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:07am PST

have I ever heard your surf?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:04am PST

my best try sounds like weird punk

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:03am PST

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:03am PST

i've been recording surf for like fucking 20 years now so i figure i'll just go on auto pilot and hopefully it won't totally suck

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:02am PST

i'm gonna try to do it quick and loose

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:02am PST

i'll whip something up today

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:02am PST

it's like bad flash animation before bad flash animation

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:02am PST

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 10:02am PST

yeah the batman 66 animation is insanely sloppy

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:58am PST

I might have to make it more complicated

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:58am PST

my idea is to animate it in a batman '66 style but I'm a perfectionist so it might not happen

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:57am PST

whatever you think fits

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

maybe i'll make it all digital and bouncy

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

I tried to write it myself but it didn't work so I figured "Nick can do it!"

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

but i wanna make it kinda fucked up too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

had*

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

ye that was what I ahd in mind

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:56am PST

kinda go with the Batman 66 vibe

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:55am PST

i'll do surf music

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:55am PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:55am PST

I really don't care

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:54am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:54am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:54am PST

NICE! i'm down with it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:53am PST

oh I had an idea earlier if you make a cougar and cub theme song that is like 30 seconds I could make an animation to go with it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:50am PST

yup it was on purpose :P

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:50am PST

heh heh did you notice that Herbert is also the name of the character in Jiggle?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:49am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:41am PST

The Tribe In a world so intertwined with technology a man takes it upon himself to bring humanity back to a new age of spirituality. This man is determined to bring this new age trough fruition with his desert tribe. Thus, The Tribe. The leader of The Tribe is a man that goes by many names Mahn Ra “King Of Planets” Unh being one of them. Another one of his names is Herbert Roth. Until recently Herb was some mid-level business guy, until he got a little visit from some other worldly beings. Herb or Mahn Ra “King Of Planets” Unh as he likes to be called back came back a changed man….. if he came back at al….

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 9:13am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:53am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:53am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:52am PST

I know

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:52am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:31am PST

YES I DID THAT ON PURPOSE

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30am PST

since this is Cougar arch nemesis, i think you did a great job making it feel BIG

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30am PST

thanks! the motion lines are tricky

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30am PST

Gives this page a really unique feel that echos other stuff but has more impact

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:30am PST

Great idea with the curvy motion lines

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Amazing.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29am PST

And the fucking fight page!!!!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29am PST

SO smart

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Great choices on the toss page. Love the SFX and gift breaking the border on the fourth panel

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:29am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

THE BEST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

This book is gonna be

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

Really good expressions

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

Those Sugar Mama panels are especially great.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 1:57pm PST

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

ploep

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:20am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:20am PST

I'm gonna cook

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:20am PST

I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:20am PST

maybe only about vertigo

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

but maybe i'm waaaaaaay off

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

and i think that's all i got

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

Danger Zone

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

Vertigo

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

Fantagraphics

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

Oni

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:19am PST

okay so most likely publishers based on content (not based on our experience):

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:18am PST

hehehehe fair point

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:18am PST

but they seem to have such a narrow window of genre and style there

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:18am PST

our stuff always fits with their themes!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:18am PST

I know but the theme fits

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

avatar

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

maybe orrrr avatar

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

no action, no superheroes

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

or a more artsy place

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

i feel like this is something we could maybe get fantagraphics into

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:17am PST

well it's definitely a finite story

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:16am PST

I don't have any real notes for now, but like allot of times, I think the idea might only call for a 3 issue thing or whatever unless we add allot of characters

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:15am PST

like if we would start making a shortlist now, it would be on it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

I know it shouldn't stop us

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

and that's worked out pretty well

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

but ya know what? i had no clue who would want Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

MONEY IN THE BAG

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

hahaha yep

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:14am PST

our 3 issue funny animal comic :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:13am PST

yes they will publish out funny animal comic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:13am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:13am PST

HAHAHAHAHA

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:13am PST

Vertigo?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:13am PST

as for publishing, hmmm... fair point.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:12am PST

cool, i'm into it too. as always, i view everything in that initial plot idea as flexible. all stuff i'm willing to change and improve together.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:11am PST

but ye I like it, it's super high on my want to do list

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:10am PST

my only thing is that I don't think anyone would ever publish it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:09am PST

I do

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:09am PST

yeah i thought you might dig that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:09am PST

but ye the story is very very transgressive

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:08am PST

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:08am PST

definitely having Herbert be a dog makes kim killing dogs all the more fucked up

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:07am PST

yeah exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:07am PST

like some people look like people but have a cat mom

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:07am PST

ye some just are

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:06am PST

most people in the duck verse look like this:

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:06am PST

yeah, i definitely envisioned that kind of world where only a few animals are walkers and it doesn't really require explanation

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

in goofy's world

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

right, and most others aren't

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

so ye is it the same?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

but he's a walker

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

okay cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:05am PST

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:04am PST

haha he should be a dog himself?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:04am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:04am PST

?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

I think the main character should be a goofy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

I like it it soo fucked up

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

and jiggle... whatcha like? don't like?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

thanks!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

so yeah kickass pages

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:03am PST

yes it does :D

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:00am PST

space

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:00am PST

more

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 8:00am PST

ye it gives it

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:59am PST

Really gives that panel good pacing

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:59am PST

Great job on the no border

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:59am PST

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:59am PST

A-FUCKING-MAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:59am PST

dis

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

whaddaboutttttt

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

It's like Looney Tunes kinda shit.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

I LOVE THIS PAGE!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 7:58am PST

This page.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 4, 2015 at 6:46am PST

oh my Jiggle is... something else

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:25pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:24pm PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:14pm PST

I will read it sometime today

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 8:04pm PST

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KVp_jNpqT84gEpKB4WHok7sXaS2S92eVWIjnEyc2s2Q/edit

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 8:04pm PST

Came up with a rough idea for what could be an interesting way to mix a funny animal, food, lost celebrity status, and sadness into a single story:

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

I went for a walk today and my brain started wandering too.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PST

animal comicsmhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PST

bye bye

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PST

okay night night!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

also, i'm getting a bit burnt out on the racial and cultural politics of character representation

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

on that note Amanda want's to go to bed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

which ya know we both love

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

YES

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

like cooking is magic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

it has potential to be super fucked up

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

and then the opposite is often done with food stories, where it's almost over glorified

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

I like this idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

maybe in some older black and whit indy stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

like people think talking animals are beneath them so they rarely explore the ramifications of it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

it's all largely unexplored too

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

I don't know maybe we should find out

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

how fucked up would that be?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

but what if it was a disney style thing about a cow that was cooking fine dining

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

like, we love a movie about a Rat who cooks fancy food

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

yeah for sure Food For Thought

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

like a funny animal that's a chef and cooks other animals from his species, only they aren't talking versions or "self aware" versions

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

taught

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

for

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

food

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

yeah, there's definitely a way to connect all of that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

funny.... animal... food

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

what makes it okay to kill all plants but not all animals?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

interesting

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

is it the meat? is it the mind of that animal?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

i can't really think of any culture that cultivates them

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

we don't eat a single feline organism

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

like, how do we decide what is okay to eat? what organism is deemed acceptable to eat and what isn't?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

oehh I like that

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

but im also really fascinated by the idea of what is and is not food

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

hehe ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:48pm PST

especially because it's all done over something so ordinary

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:48pm PST

well i love cooking shows and the drama of the kitchen

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:47pm PST

whats your angle?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:47pm PST

I don't know doesn't really matter

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:46pm PST

is food a genre thing?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

but getting back to genres

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

how humans perceive things that are "cute"

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

actually, even just pet ownership

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

because they're cute or not real

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:45pm PST

i like the idea that we're willing to let funny animals do all of these horrible and bizarre things to each other and to humans

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

I think both HF and ONS have that as a core "This is what we have to say about____"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

what do you have to say about funny animals?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

TONS

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

but otherwise?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

hahah for reals

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:44pm PST

yeah funny animals

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

is there like a genre you feel like you have something to say about?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

I will write it down

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

including the things about it you really want to draw :D

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:42pm PST

please write it down and share!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:42pm PST

I had more but I forgot, don't think I wrote it down

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:42pm PST

what if there would be a new big "spiritual" leader that attracts people and makes a family and the leader ahs psychedelic super powers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

ehm lemme think...

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

could you refresh me on it?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

it's not quite the same but similar I guess

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

like the cult leader thing from a ways back?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PST

what attracts people to them even though they're very dehumanizing and oppressive?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PST

that almost makes me think about the manson idea I had

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PST

how do they function?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PST

mhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PST

also, chains of command / leadership / power structures

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

like we never really explore the collateral damage of Holy F or Cougar

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

can the same things be accomplished without force?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

what can it solve?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

violence

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

tell me

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

some themes im interested in exploring

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:34pm PST

just not super heroes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:34pm PST

I don't know what would be on top

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:33pm PST

is it on the top of the list of things you'd like to draw?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:32pm PST

I haven't given it much thought yet

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

i'm sure it's in there. you just haven't isolated it yet! i bet you know the character pretty well.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

this one doesn't... yet

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

i'm not saying it's not special... i'm interested in getting to the core of what makes it compelling! the hook. i know it's in there. your stuff always has it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

hehehe maybe I dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

not necessarily! i think there's something special there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

had the idea other people have had better anyways :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

but yeeee

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

I don't think it has anything special

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

it was just that pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

I don't really have much

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

well im interested in learning more about it if you wanna send a google doc of ideas my way

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

it's kinda my thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

i like sad

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

my idea is sadder

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

ahh I dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

so now he's like this party animal creature that people vaguely remember

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

yeah Ted was a celebrity when Mark Whalburg's character was a kid

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

did ted do that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PST

for you, what's the special angle on your character?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

so if i play devil's advocate with you... Bojack did the washed up sitcom star thing AND Ted did the once famous weirdo thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

so now this grumpy alien lives in the hills eating gerbils

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

yeah is cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

was *real

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

but then it's over

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

it's like what if ALF was really and his TV show was sorta based on his life

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:23pm PST

i likes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:21pm PST

so an alien really lands on earth and get's a sitcom but then it gets canceled

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:21pm PST

mmmm of course i like that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:21pm PST

it's also an ALF rip-off :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

sooooooo

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

ooooooooo do tell

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:20pm PST

I dunno I had a Bojack rip-off idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

or realism

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

fair point hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

like I have worries about anatomy

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

bright colors, big action,

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

no worries about anatomy or realism

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

funny animals

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

what about animals

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:19pm PST

they're so tough to pitch. indies are weird about them.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

I don't want to do two super hero things in a row

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

same

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:18pm PST

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

freaq squad is cool but i feel like we should do a non-superhero thingy next

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:17pm PST

there is no hurry

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

i'll get started this week

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

and my lazy ass really should be flatting it right now to speed that up

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

of course!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

but ye coloring cougar and cub might still take 2 months :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:12pm PST

bathetic is fun and all, but it's hardly a "main thing"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

I gotta figure out what I want

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

and i joked around about doing a webcomic with Carrie Howarth but that's not much of a thing right now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

and i'm gonna starting developing something with this really interesting guy i met at Long Beach Comic Con last month.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

when/if they get something going I will be too

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

James from Nutmeg and Dewayne from Aero-Girl

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

noice

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

hopefully that'll lead to some connections

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

okay! cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

i got buddies from ALE pitching to Boom right now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

ye probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

when we get in at boom or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

in time

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

that

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

if only we could get ALF

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

but physically I could do it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

hehehe ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

granted, that doesn't account for getting bored with the material or finding a book that people want monthly!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

i think you could easily do an ongoing monthly

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

that we've torn through it like this

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

yep, so crazy to believe

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:32am PST

sooo we're almost done with cougar and cub

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:49am PST

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:36am PST

and so god

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

so goodd

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

So god

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

I FUCKING LOVEEEEEE ITTTTTTTTT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:33am PST

I am going to poop

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:32am PST

thats cool and pretty smurt

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

not change

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

*chance

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

and i'm like "wait... this is the same thing i do with daniel EXCEPT i just surprise him with the changes... what if we both had a change to punch up the dialogue together?"

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

so i'm creating these dialogue only scripts to match the art

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

but my scripts are so old and things have changed so much

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

nice!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

we've only got like 4 pages to go!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

i have to do it for that supervillain story i've been working on for over four years

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

only the words to go on the pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

but it's easy to read along with looking at the art because there's no descriptive information in it

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

basically

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

like an editing script

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:27am PST

and this way, we can both review the dialogue changes

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:27am PST

cause things change a lot once i see the art

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:27am PST

oehhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:27am PST

and it's something i'm going to share with you

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:27am PST

it's going to be a script with just dialogue, captions, and SFX (but not SFX for books i do with you, obviously)

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:26am PST

i'm calling it a "lettering script"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:25am PST

what?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:25am PST

okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:25am PST

i think i'm going to officially add a step to my comics process

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:24am PST

well you would know better than i would! i see a lot of variation in your work, though.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:24am PST

i don't know about that I think ti comes down to two but meh it doesn't matter that much

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:21am PST

you got TONS of styles!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:21am PST

I guess I kinda have 2 styles, but I can apply them in different ways

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:19am PST

it's not on purpose

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:19am PST

hehehe i kinda see that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:17am PST

the new 52 style is quit similar to HF I guess

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:16am PST

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:16am PST

hahahahahahahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:16am PST

Your art has really improved since you turned 23. Wow.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:15am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:15am PST

Amazing work.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 10:15am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

plus messed up paint and bubbles wouldn't be that bad hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:57pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:57pm PST

I imagine a four point articulation thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:55pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

yeah not funny to me

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:58am PST

the voices are always slightly off, but I don't think they use many real voice people

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:57am PST

the writing is super good

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:57am PST

must not like the voice director

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:57am PST

I also like boring indie movies, maybe thats why I like it i dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:53am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:53am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:53am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:53am PST

ok it was the pilot

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:48am PST

I like that it's so depressing 90% of the time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:48am PST

maybe I dunno I just remember it as an overall pleasant thing

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:47am PST

from a fan this weekend

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:47am PST

i heard the pilot is meh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:46am PST

maybe it's just one of those things that we don't agree on :P

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:46am PST

im not sure if im watching the pilot or #2 but it suuuuuckz

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:46am PST

so it doesn't take much from your day and it's pretty funny

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:45am PST

25 minutes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:44am PST

I think it's a 20 minute show

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:44am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:44am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:43am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:42am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:41am PST

nice

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:40am PST

heard from a san diego dude that we sell great down there

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:40am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:35am PST

and reviewers seem to like it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

if only because what we do is unique

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

mokay I don't know

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

i think so

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

is there a good chance?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

not that many humor comic books kinda works to our advantage

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:33am PST

there's a good chance we could make some best of lists

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:33am PST

if we get any end of the year or award nods

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:33am PST

we'll see

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:33am PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:32am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:32am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:31am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:31am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:31am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:31am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:30am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:23am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:18am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:18am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:18am PST

HAHA!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:13am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:12am PST

growing up there were a couple of occasions that made clear that no one gives a fuck, and that made me feel bad about me. I can do that myself don't need help with that. so now I'm a bit sour on birthdays

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:11am PST

I don't like to talk about it either but ye I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:10am PST

I had pizza my parents where here for almost an hour

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:10am PST

i actually like to keep mine secret

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:10am PST

yeah me neither

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:10am PST

I don't really do those

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:09am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:08am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

GOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

it is a crappy trace

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

i didn't even think about that

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

oooooo

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

oh plus it's the white character and black character

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

like a fucking photo trace hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

like it is

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

especially if you draw their arms WAY more muscly than usual

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

ye it fits

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

i think the predator reference is perfect

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

relooking at the page

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

thought

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:06am PST

on second though

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

gimme a sec

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

yeah cuz i feel like maybe we could make a good joke out of it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

OHHHHHH

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

like arms around each other's shoulders or something

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

butt grabbing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

could there be a good way to make the contradiction a bit less subtle?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

ehmmm I'll save it for last

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

but i like the idea of the contradiction

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

i'm still not totally sold on it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

i see where you're going with that

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

okay, i gotcha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

like their body language is completely different from what they say

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

cool, like as in it's intentionally not supposed to make sense?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

sense*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

yes it doesn't make sence

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

unless i'm just totally not getting it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

k, so my thought on that is... since they're talking about not being sexual anymore, wouldn't they not be doing that? since it's kind of a romantic thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

mhhh I'll keep it in mind

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

are they holding hands walking out of the evil lair?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

my second thought

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

speaking of hands

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

i leave that in your hands

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

just wanted to share that image with you

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:00am PST

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 11:00am PST

I don't think it matters much

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

do you think that would be even funnier than the predator style?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

when the two macho characters meet, they do this ridiculous forearm grasp

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

ahhh yes

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

did you see the episode with justin long from the new season on netflix?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

yesss

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

do you watch that show?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

but i realized that my brain mixed up the predator grasp with this thing from portlandia

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:57am PST

this might be so dumb

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:55am PST

do ya dodo do

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:55am PST

need to make a screencap for it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:55am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:55am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:53am PST

ROCKIN!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

and about the TPB printing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

ye good idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

also asked him for order #s on 3

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

so i'm checking it with jason about that

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

and jason nor shawn ever sent me a second proof with ads

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

but the proof i saw didn't have the ads in it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

If they send it to print last weekend it should be on time right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

not sure what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

if it was the final it should be good right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

which makes me feel a bit nervous

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

i saw a proof... but it wasn't a finished proof

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

supposedly #3 went to print last weekend

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

already replied

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

too late

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

ask him!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

vexed

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

hexed

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

perplexed

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

so i'm even more confused

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

even more confusing is that these extra point episodes aren't about comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

i don't think so

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

is he monthly`?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

damn

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

wait... he's been going for that long but he hasnt even done 200 episodes???

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

big shot

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

don't forget where you come from

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

just old acquaintances

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

you homeboys and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

you should probably talk to him then

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

i used to share a table with him at NYCC

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

i think he was going in 2006

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

I know when you started

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

whuuuutt

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

he was podcasting before i was!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

ohkay confusing

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

but he's old friends with them, like one of their original fans

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i dont quite get the naming or whatever

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

btw tis guy says comic geek speak but he's his own thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

haha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

cuz we special

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

dunnno

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

i know Ian well... i just don't understand why it would be an "extra point" and not a regular episode

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I don't listen to geekspeak

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

http://www.speakgeekspeak.com/comictiming/?cat=761

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

it's a podcast

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

do you know what this guy is talking about with the Extra Point thing?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

there are many ways I could do it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

and good point about the sin city thing, of course

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

like the character's mouth or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

I think you could probably get away with a little gray on it too

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

This page is fucking cool like this!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

THANKS!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

whuuutt it uploaded

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

fucking facebook

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

my only beef with it is that it's a sin city thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

ye but the comic would also have a darker mood and more blacks and shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

and like using the color to shadow stuff is a sweet technique but i think it would steal thunder from spot colors on objects

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

except i think it's way more color than what we should use

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

yeah, sorta

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

I know it's different, but it comes from the same place kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

ye I like it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

i mean, it's way different from what i'm thinking but it's nice

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

that looks cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

well i think the difference is that the secret pope page was drawn with that black and white lighting in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

I actually played with it a bit for my brothers thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

ugh we'll see

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

my LCS doen't really do single issues

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

like one or two on a page

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

and they only get used sparingly as spot colors

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

or something like that

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

we pick ten colors

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

so my thought is

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

and they cut through so well

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

but what i think works so well about that secret pope page in print (which, if you can, is worth going to your comic shop just to look at it) is that we have the deep red and bright blue

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

but with digital printing it doesn't matter

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yup in the old days it would matter

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

no you would have to do like a specific thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i'd have to research it to see, that might be more of an old school thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

frankly, i'm not even sure that the printers most comic companies use would even offer a deal on that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

hehehe maybe

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i think it's worth it cause it'll look fucking amazing

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

oh yeah i don't think it's worth trying to do the "save money" part of it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

maybe it's ironic or a step forwards

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

but it won't actually save money if AL or someone simillair would publish it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

hahaha ye only get one color bub

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

then of course lots of blood

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

cant be green because we gotta save that for MONEY

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

no wait

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

like purple and green or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

they could each have a color

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

it would work well with them

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

like me

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

fuck you people who care about diversity!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

and sorta ironic since they're both not white but we're making it a black and white comic anyway

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

that would be pretty rad

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

maybe Asia and Africa, Bitches for hire can be a black and white comic

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

hahahahaha Hannah Minnesota

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

which i assume is true

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

by telling her that you're almost done with #4 and you'd probably enjoy doing something different before #5

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

i'll remind her in an indirect way

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

hahaha that thing you wrote is delightfully silly

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

I don't think my art in #4 is as strong as #2/3 but eh I did most of the art of a comicbook within two weeks

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

hahahaha remember when Jason wanted us to make Herc's facial hair an H?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

part of it is their juxtaposition

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

my mom is one of the most amazing people I know, my dad is kind of a prick.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

I don't think they know what the word means

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

yes like my parents thing everything that is sex related is immoral

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

My mom liked the idea of reading and listening to all of my work, but she never actually did it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

Anything vulgar was porno to her.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

hahahhaha porno

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

my mom has read pretty much read everything I have ever worked on

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:56am PDT

"Oh my god! Nicholas, what are you doing? Oh that's not good. This is porno!!!"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

i'm not like trying to give advice there or anything

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

I told them it exists it's not for you, so don't worry about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

but that's just my personal preference.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:54am PDT

yeah ya know my perspective on it as someone who's been making art like this for a long time is that it's easier for me to just be upfront about it and be like "you're probably not going to like this. it might not be for you."

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:53am PDT

but my mom could totes read cougar and cub. she wouldn't like it, but she wouldn't hold it over me either

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

ye thats why I don't want my parents to know to much about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

she wouldve hated this book

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

my mom kinda was

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:52am PDT

naw, he never was

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:46am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

my dad isall about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

my mom kinda figured out what Holy F*ck is about

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

"Dear Dad, I'm sorry. My publisher's website is useless trash. Love, Nick"

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

"Nick, I tried to find the sequel on ALE’s website, and while it is mentioned, I could not find a download. Search turned up nothing either. Where can I purchase Holy F*cked?"

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:44am PDT

an email my dad just sent me:

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

and printed, the pope sings

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

digitally the holy spirit page sings

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:41am PDT

as do I

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

i think it's the difference between digital and print

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:40am PDT

oh yeah big time

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:39am PDT

becuase when we we're working on it the Holy Spirit page kinda over powered that page

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

but it's quite funny

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

ye like 3 people mentioned it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

that secret pope page is like "WOW" when you get to it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:38am PDT

I can't wait to see those handdrawn pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:37am PDT

you'll see what i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

instead of lots of shades of pink and purple

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

so the result is that the Holy Spirit page mostly just looks pink

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

and their definition between shades of pink is just okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:36am PDT

but the printer's stuff seems to skew yellow

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

everything looks good

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

looks good! everything looks good

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

so the Holy Spirit page

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

i wonder if it means that action lab doesn't have any of our issues at cons either...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

smart plans and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

i might even be able to swing a trade or a purchase off of a retailer while i'm at comikaze

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

we'll still have copies of the comic regardless of the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

ye it sucks

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

but whatever

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:32am PDT

i'm a lil annoyed at Action Lab for that

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

yeah the #1 thing sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

I like grosse stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

goood morning

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

So much good grossness and action!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

These new pages fucking rock!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 6:57am PDT

floep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

sucks about the #1 regular covers :(

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 12:51am PDT

yay I'm happy it tured out well, whata bout the Holy Spirit page?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:23pm PDT

Also, the Secret Pope page from Holy F*cked #2 looks AMAZING in the print version. It pops so well with the black, white, and spot colors. We should totally consider that for a future project like Freaq Squad or something where we can design the entire look around that style of color. Might also be a good look for your story with Justique.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:21pm PDT

We might have to actually buy our own copies of it from shops!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:21pm PDT

Apparently they really under-shipped it to Diamond.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:20pm PDT

Got our comp copies of Holy F*cked #2 today. But no copies of the Holy F*cked #1 regular cover :(

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

as far as i'm concerned, all really all that matters is if it's fun to you dreaming up the crazy ideas!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

but ye it's to over complicated so it's no fun

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

I was thinking the gods could have like a council and shared heavens until big G decides to create humans and that makes the gods angry at eachother and part ways

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

how would you do it?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

my version of genesis I should say

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

shrug

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:55am PDT

I think the art in this issue is a bit inconsistent

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

I'm happy you like it!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

The tasing

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

The blank stares

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

The blood lick

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Miss Chievous's close up face. hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:21am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:21am PDT

BTW i'm writing some flashbackyness into the issue

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 2:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

I'll probably share that tomorrow.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

Also: https://comicslobs.wordpress.com/2015/10/17/i-am-groot/

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:32am PDT

But anyway, I wanted to get a feel for your layout because a couple of scenes in the new script sorta depend on the positioning on characters and so on.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:31am PDT

Maybe we can have the rogues laughing in the last panel? I dunno... something to make it seem like they're all excited to kill Cougar and Cub

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:28am PDT

Thanks! Don't remember seeing this one.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:16am PDT

I think I did... it's kinda boring

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 7:49pm PDT

Another thing... did you ever send me the thumbnail for page 22 of #4? I can't find it in my files or in our messages! I want to look at it for reference in regards to the script for #5.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 6:16pm PDT

Oh, BTW, something important for page 21 and 22 of Cougar and Cub #4 -- Cub's mouth should be taped. It's something that comes up in my script for #5.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 3:40pm PDT

this review is really glowing but also a complete massacre of almost every detail of the story http://graphicpolicy.com/2015/10/25/review-holy-fcked-2-revenge-is-on-the-menu/ hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 25, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

I like drawing unclear blobs of nasty ness

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 25, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Awesome positioning on the villains page.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 25, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

it helps when she does it but carbs are good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

yeah i think you're right

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

hmmmm okay i see where you're going with this

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

but I also like your idea so lets do that :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

I know but I think we both have a look going on

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

no no no i just meant in their clothing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

but we are us

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

so short in person too! shorter than me

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

he's always in a turtleneck and blazer with those shades

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

and the other Kane

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

i feel like one of us should be steranko http://cdn5.thr.com/sites/default/files/2013/09/jim_steranko_nick_fury_a_p.jpg

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

hahahaha yeah that's gonna rule

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

so we can really make the finale explode with excitement

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

also us as the last page reveal :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

cewl :)

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

well i'm gonna consider all of that in this script

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

I draw big

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

yeah agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

it all needs the horizontal action on that case

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

to be around for your friend?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

which is?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

oen of the reasons I wouldn't want to live in the US for a long time is a very "serious" reason

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

but my best friend for most of my life is an addict and I got used to keeping up with him before I knew he was an addict

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

hahah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

yesterday I was over at Tom's(the guy from sideshow collectibles) and Abe was like: "I always drink more when I hang out with you Daniel" and I replied :"Oh! I always drink less when I hang out with you"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

I'm boring, almost the same but not exactely

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

sex, drinking, watching movies and shit

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

at your age, i still had the mind of an 18 yr old

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

for most it's like whatver

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

so for me being in that class room and scoreing good grades is very important

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

I've had jobs and I live together with someone I have bills

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

partially my class mates are like 18/19

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

school is shitty cuz you're almost 23?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

ye live is funny and weird

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

happened

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

and probably never wouldve happen

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

thats partially what makes my school shit

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

that's an ideal scenario

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

and then really focused on comics

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

but i wish i waited a year

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

i think 22

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

ye most people are

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

actually a bit younger

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

your age

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

ye I know

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

so each thing comes with its own trade offs, ya know?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

ye that is a shitty reason

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

and really the main reason she died is cuz she was a wreck after their divorce

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

well its fucked up but really the only reason im not work shit jobs now is because my mom died

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

YES I DID!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

haha you fooled him

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

i spent most of my 20s working jobs i hated trying to follow that path

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

and that meant "a career" and so on

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

my mom had the same deal

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

but i also had to g to college within his parameters

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

nice

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

my dad paid for everything, which was cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

my situation with college was a bit different

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

no

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

I would not be able to draw 24 pages a month

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

ohhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

no allot more time consuming

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

good thing I didn't get into artschool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

right before we pitched it

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I signed up for this just after we finished making Holy F*ck... right?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

nooo

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

actually, it was more like 1.5 yrs ago

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

and a year ago, we had no idea what was going to happen with our comics

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

yeah that's not badd

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

now I get money for going to a building a couple days a week and I get to draw whatever I want

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

so you can buy your way out of it!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

thats why I picked this option a year ago

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

now i really want to get our shit optioned

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

but seriously

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

no it doesn't

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

hHAHAHA

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

but being in school and making comics doesn't seem too awful for a few years

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

i mean, i'm not in your shoes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

I'm fucked either way :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

well we really need to get Holy F*ck optioned now

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

poor4lyfe!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

thats amazing

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

HAHAHAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

but I only have to pay back if I ear above a certain paygrade

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

summer*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

sumemr*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

yes I get money in the sumemr

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

the 600 and 400 might not be accurate but the idea is right

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

and that includes summer months?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

yes right about

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

so if you stay in school, you owe 400 for every month? plus the 1000 a year?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

thats what I'm saying I was fucked the day I chose to do this

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

having a degree is important

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

STAY IN SCHOOL!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

right, yeah that's about 8400

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

little less maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

basically you owe 600 a month for every month you've been in school?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

I don't know the exact number

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

right about

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

if you quit now you'd owe 8400?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

wait

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

in 3 years

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

when do you finish again?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

now that's a lot

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

FCCCCCCCCCCK

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

so if I would quit I would have to pay back like 8400 euros

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

OHHHHH

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

BUT if I don't finish only 300 of the 500 is free

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

and then draw shit

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

quit college, get a part time job at a coffee shop or even your local comic shop

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

i'm just like

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

and I borrow like 400 a month

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

ye here I also get like 500euros a month for free

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

my collaborator from there is still in school and i think he's nearing 30

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

sweden you get a stipend and shit, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

but still

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

okay, so it's not that much

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Sweden si free

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

like 1000 euro's a year

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

oh maybe i'm thinking of sweden

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

I do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

it's not a degree in art

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

but from what i udnerstand, you don't pay for college, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

degrees in art, at least here in the US, are largely worthless

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

the biggest problem is : I can't find employment

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

yes and I have over the last decade

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

and you know what you want to do

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

plus, you're already a "professional" in a field

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

i figure you can probably teach yourself the stuff you're learning in class better than they can teach you

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

ha!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

I have been growing more and more absent minded over the last year and some change nowadays I don't know the date/what day it is. I think it's because of college :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

thats the problem

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

you're way better at shit that most college people i've ever met

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

i'll be honest with you... as someone with a spotty employment record at best so take this thought with that in mind... i dunno why you're in college

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

but I'm kinda looking for a way to quit college :3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

I dunno, a teacher of mine said I should try to get some motiongraphic/animation internship is the states

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

hehehe ye

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

they can be wherever they want

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

but yah know what? those fuckers are rolling in it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

mhhh might be

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

i thought gaiman was in minnesota or soemthing

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

well morrison is in LA half of the year, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

yeah which is probably even easier too

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

they all live in the UK

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

morrison or gaiman or alan davis or something

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

unless you're like a fucking celebrity

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

yeah i guess freelancing isn't exactly a "job"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

I would need a job and shit probably

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

so i hear

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

greencard shit is also hard

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

maybe for a bit but not for a long time

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

move

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

if your american comics career takes off, would you movie to the states?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

so in that case it's closer to 30

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

but it might not have started till Holy F*ck

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

hells to the yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

that's pretty good for 28 :D

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

so soon you'll be making $$$, and in 5 more years you'll be "name" talent i bet

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

usually ye

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i feel like the business of comics moves roughly in five year intervals

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

hahahaha hope so

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

that means you'll probably start getting paying gigs

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

why?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

perfect

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

ehhhh 18?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

hahahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

now I just have an imersive hobby

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

If I would get paid for this I would a be a work-a-holic

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

cartoon voilence

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I love your gruesome violence in this book.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

break time

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

ye I think so. it both does something that doesn't get much done with super heroes, and it makes it more palatable for dutch readers. especially kids

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

that would be fun!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

the format would be kinda like this

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

ideaaa!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

good idea1

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

I am thinking about figuring Wonderkat out as a gag comic that I could pitch to my dutch publisher

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

and dream I do

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

we can only dream...

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

by the time it's done ONS might allready be a smash hit :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

yesh we'll see how it goes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

it's horror, it's fantasy, and it's character driven

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

thats good :)

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i actually think the oddness is in its favor

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i don't think so personally

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

ye but the story might be too odd

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

but i also think pitching is in your favor, if only because it's not superhero and you've got a black female writer

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

and of course, i'll be glad to be a cheerleader for it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

ye that was what I was thinking

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

well, stique doesn't use it at all and you use it pretty much onyl for art

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

i think crowdfunding could be tricky for it, if only because you two aren't big social media peeps

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

yes but I can't help but think :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

so in that regard, it could be anything!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

I just draw what she sends me and it'll become something

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

ye I try not to worry about it to much

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

but i mean the two of you are still figuring out what it can be

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

possibly

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

you probably see more of that than I do

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

i feel like it's still evolving!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Bathetic is an interesting book

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

It'd rather not do it, but it might be the best option

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

but i need to learn more about it. i'll keep myself open to the idea at Comikaze and try to learn more

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

for me I am also looking at what could work for Bathetic.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

and to me right now, printing and distributing = stress!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

hehehe understood

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

i'm not adverse to risk.... however, i am adverse to extreme stress

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

much as a bitch about action lab, they're the ones taking the risk with the production of the book, not us

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I totally understand

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

but i can grow and change!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

personally, i still see it as a last resort and not one i'm personally even considering at the moment

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

but it's gonna take me some time

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i might come around

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

hehehehe figured as much :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

hahahaha ye that would be funny and shit

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

i feel like maybe i should caption it with something ridiculous "Cub speeds down the desolate Megaville streets, a hot piece of large metal straddled between his tense teens thighs. He wants vengeance... he wants recompense. But he knows it's going to be a long, hard road to get what he wants."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

yeah i didn't necessarily have anything in mind. i wasn't sure what the image would end up looking like! i figured if it was a wide shot of the city, we wouldn't need SFX. but with a closeup like this, i think you should draw a superkickass VROOOOOMMMMM or WHHHHRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

oeh you didn't put any in the script

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 23, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

well I'm happy you like it :)

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

yeah and i think the fact that you made them flow so well without panels already gives them a fantastic flavor and feel that will totally sell the joke AND deliver some awesome condensed history

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 22, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

but ye with the right colloring and shit the flashbacks will be neat-o

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

I also have a Feelgood flashback coming in #5. I thought we could use some 70s inspiration for it since we completely skipped the 70s in the #4 flashbacks.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Looking back on it, this almost reads like Cub is the one turning Cougar's history into a comic book style thing, which I really like.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

And the Cat Hole pages are so awesome and gruesome too.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

It came out so good!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 22, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

If we would do it it shouldn't be a literal parody of characters, but more like x force

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Xavier kinda sucks in this movie tough

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

ye, never tought about it that way

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

they choose settings, scenarios, and plots that all emphasize the white characters

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

they cast a bunch of diverse actors and then exclude all of them from the major scenes or important action

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

why so?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

i love how these movies are like subconsciously anti diversity

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

hahaha the beard!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

like its in the contract that they get to keep using any character who appears

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

I like iceman's beard

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

in some ways i think Fox just tries to put as many characters as possible in these things to retain rights

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

i'm like, just spend time showing me the 20 characters that are already in the room

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

they used Mystique's DNA to create morphing sentinels? so unecessarily complicated

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

you'll hate it

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

this movie sucks so far

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

i bet

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

and they spent so much money on it

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

its so dumb

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

It's good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

thats still pretty rockin

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

but it will probs only be an internet thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

like the local broadcasting channel

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

is it for an arnhem news show?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

NICE

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

it's mostly about me and my relationship with comics

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

but she was nice and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

just some lady pointing a camera at me and asking me questions

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

what was the filming like?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

me so tired

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

yeah, digest size

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

http://verynearmint.bigcartel.com/product/very-near-mint-vol-1 I would want to be ONS in this vorm if we would kickstart it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

neither can I

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

i can't wait

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

oh i know you will!]

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

I'll make it grosser when I ink it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

my favorite!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS the fight!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

us having to send shit back and forth would also suck

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

I totally understand

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

so if we could 1) find someone who actually likes that or 2) somehow do it without that, then i'm in!! haha

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

but really what it comes down to is that i really dislike anything having to do with printing and shipping

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

so there's that aspect of it

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

i mean, having a well performing kickstarter often leads to getting a print publisher

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

hahaha I would be 75% :P

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

and that i would be 100% fine with

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i wish people liked digital comics more because you and i could create an AMAZING digital kickstartery thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

who likes to do the kickstarter stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

to hard

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

whut*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

what we need to do

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

figured as much

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

thats better

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

sorry :(

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

WAY 2 RUIN MY JOKE WITH REALITY

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

they don't do less that 100 I think

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

we'll get a check for like $1.57 in 2017

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

yeah, at least not yet

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

but ye It's not like we earn anything when we go trough AL

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

same

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

hahaha ye

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

but i'm also not excited by anything that involved us having to choose a printer and approve proofs and mailing shit out

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

same

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

i think it could work

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

yeah i mean i'm not against a kickstarter for Cougar and Cub

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

we could just do it as a manga size volume

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

because the chances of actually making a profit on them is super low but the idea of using them to build an audience is pretty on point

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

I think ONS would work well as a kickstarted thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

noice

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

the kickstarter thing... i like that angle on it

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

nice well congrats, that's super cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

cool, I understand annddd I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

when does the YouTube version get posted?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

yeah the short version is: Use Kickstarter to build an audience, NOT to fund a project.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

she'll send me the youtube version

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

't was allright

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

i still hate the idea of printing books ourselves

Nick MarinoMonday, October 19, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 18, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

I think page 17 is my favorite, though. The POOP GRAB!

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

COOOL! i was hoping this fight scene would be the fun kind of challenging

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 18, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

it's a hard-ish page but tons of fun

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

but i wanna make that line all dramatic and maybe even a bit larger, so some extra space would be kickass!

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

i hate lettering on top of character's heads! i don't mind if the tail overlaps a bit, or even the bottom of the balloon.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

it's the angry cub face where he says the lin about going out in the night and tasting blood

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

would you be okay with lowering Cub's head a bit in that shot?

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

on page 6 panel 4

Nick MarinoSunday, October 18, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

the back cover is just pull quotes, there is no description of the story or anything like that

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

super weird and stuff but pretty good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

pretty good

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

But I was reading a book so it was cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

i kinda feel like i'll never top that fight scene right there

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

and then Diaper Rash shit pukes all over his henchies

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

ya know, the part Cub makes Diaper Rash eat his own vomit

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

heh heh

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

I do believe so I haven't re read it yet but I remember liking it

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

do you like the fight scene?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

hahaha I think so

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

sorry!!! hopefully the rest of the issue is less headache inducing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

yes it is fun, but also a headache

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

And the flashback pages are rocking, of course!!! Great use of layout to echo the two gun shots. And the body armor on the second page... OMG!

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

Good character placement on the second page. It works well.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

That opening splash is so funny. Awesome job with Cougar on there.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

I dig your approach to the flashback. I hope that's fun for you! I wanted to toss something in there that made that scene a bit special and unusual.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

They're terrific.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

I LOVE THESE!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 7:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, October 17, 2015 at 1:24am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

es

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

our covers stand out in general I think

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

it stands out really well on the racks

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

but your Holy F*ck logo is definitely a cut above anyway

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

yeah they're super boring!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

all the new dangerzone books have boring logo's

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

noice

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

i think so

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

hahaha nice

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

"The giant penis with a vagina is both hilarious and gross."

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

I actually appeciate it and shit but people keep calling my art simple, it's not bad but gets old

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

http://www.comiccrusaders.com/review-holy-fcked-2/

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

hahahah cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

but we'll see!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

i'm not convinced

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

and that they have a new schedule to help them keep everything on track

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

jason says #3 goes to print next week

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

is good!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

tomorrow I think I can finally start with the #4 thumbs

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

https://www.facebook.com/ViewFromTheGutters/posts/926890934065076

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:17am PDT

hahahahahaha guess so

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

haha or, in keeping with my style for this book, put way too much thought into something that really doesn't matter much

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

yesh I think you have a pretty good grasp on this

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

But mostly, I think I need to write the bios first and then we can sorta structure the design to function with the appropriate amount of text.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

I think the sweet spot is probably three, though. But the question is... do we put them all on the same page? I think so.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

So each item would get less text.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

With four, there are bios on the vehicles and locations too, like they did with trading cards back in the day.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

Four bios per issue, three bios, or two.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

Right, that was the idea. I actually made three separate lists...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

you can cover allot of characters ar once that way

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

It sounds like fun but might be unecessary

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

One idea is the page is made to look like a few different trading cards laying around

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

keep em in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

I had a zillion different ideas for the bios.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

You're not missing anything.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

The old design is definitely better. So simple.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

I have no idea who he is

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

I think the artists just like drawing him, maybe.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

...because he was ALL over the Spider-Man books but seemed to have no history or real reason to be there.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, October 16, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

CARDIAC!!!! I love his awful costume. He perplexed me as a kid...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:55pm PDT

but I'm not 100% sure haven't flipped trough it in years

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

I think it might look like this:

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

don't know why to be honest but I do

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

I have a spiderman handbook at home

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

I still like the classic one tough

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:11pm PDT

Yeah it's not bad.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:02pm PDT

the design is pretty nice tough

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:02pm PDT

oof movie shit

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

sweet words

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Aaron checked out CnC #1 and said "This looks great and funny as hell. Daniel gets better every time you show me stuff!!"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

it works for me!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

I try to keep a sense of symmetry

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

the black walls on the first one are kinda boring but it works

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Awesome use of black.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

ohhhh ye

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

I love the pacing on these pages. They looks fucking SWEET!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

ASSCHEEKS!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

I'll have two pages for her

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

cool I will email her tonight

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

but at the same time, i think she might have some good insights on advantages or disadvantages to my participation

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

she probably won't say no to any suggestions you have

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

and weigh the pros and cons of it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

maybe you and stique could talk about me lettering it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

as i like to do, i'm going to leave you messages here for when you get back

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

ooookay!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

dinnnnaaa

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

I know thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

like "I agree"

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

i kinda want to reply to him with my real name

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

and it wasn't me! that's some rando sticking up for us :D

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

fb

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:12am PDT

facebook? tumblr?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

you don't want to feel like your getting up on her shit

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

did you see the new post on the Holy F*ck page? :}

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

hahahahah I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

i just have my concerns

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

again, i'm not against lettering

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

input is one thing, but actually working on the pages is another

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

is that i really want this to be justique's project independent of me

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

i guess the other thing

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

thanks for the consideration anyways :)

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

hmmmm not yet

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

would you like to try a page?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

thats cool ehm

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

well, the thing is, i don't mind the challenge. i like to test myself. but i also don't want to get in the way of the story.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

I'f you think thats going to be to hard thats cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

and you kinda seem to like doing it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

i dunno if i'm strong enough to set my own opinions aside when it comes to the letters!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

I just feel like you are better at it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

placement is cool but wording is a no-no hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

but you know how i am about certain lettering things

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

right, like i don't wanna mess with balloon placement or wording or anything

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

but i already know it'll be a problem for me because i'm hella anal when it comes to my letters, even though they're just okay :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

I understand, and yes except maybe spelling mistakes you shouldn't

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

like i don't want to change anything that you and stique do with it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i just worry about my own ability to not interfere

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

i'm totally down to have a discussion about it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

no, it's okay!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

didn't mean to put you on the spot

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

if only because my lettering experience is almost exclusively with my own work

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

I understand thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

but i'm also a bit hesitant

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

i'm open to it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:47am PDT

ehm so I'd ofcourse have to ask Stique, but could I get you to letter Bathetic?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

Sorry it didn't work out with that publishers.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:46am PDT

I like your attitude... JUST KEEP ON MOVING!!!\

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

the comic about my brother got turned down, but I send it to the ZombieHipsters publisher

Nick MarinoThursday, October 15, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

I think it would be nice.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:53pm PDT

jez if we would do that we'd a woman's touch

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:52pm PDT

cool cool and cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

if we do an Asia and Africa thing, i think Justique should be involved in it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:22pm PDT

FDR is probably the best, although Poolboy is amazing too. i haven't finished Darnell yet. and $50K seems kinda meh to me... not really that funny...

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

in fact...

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

cool, i think you'd really like poolboy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:16pm PDT

I bet i'll like it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

I am aware of what they do just haven't watched any of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

not that different from what we do, actually

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

they're absurd and edgy kinda stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

but I'm dowloading it anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:00pm PDT

I have not seen any movies from the guys that did Helen Keller Vs Nightwolves

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:51pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:51pm PDT

COOL! about bathetic and #4

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

like nice to us in person but kinda dickish when it comes to anything related to business

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

they're all half assholes like that except for Dave

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

ye weird fucker

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

today I'm doing a Bathetic page and tomorrow I start thumbnailing #4

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

but whatever

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

yeah so it's especially dumb because that pitch was tight as fuck and would take him all of 10 mins to read

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

thanks

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

that did it

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:49pm PDT

I re shared it

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

dunno how that would be possible

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

are they not shared with me?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:47pm PDT

fuck that's weird...

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:46pm PDT

it's super rude especially because he told you to send it at SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

The contract is just so-so. Frankly, I'm less enthused by their unprofessional attitudes than anything else. Bryan never even bothered to reply to the ALF thing. Like, not even a "thanks for putting this together". That's pretty fucking rude as far as I'm concerned.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

I think you might be wrong

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Yah

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

did I only put 11 on?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

they way our contract works discourages me to try to find other media outlets or translations

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Anyway, I downloaded the #3 pages that are on the drive and I'm ready for the next 11!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:42pm PDT

they might

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

Though honestly, Action Lab might require approval of an agent if we're talking about HF. I'm not sure.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

Maybe once the Cougar and Cub stuff starts rolling, we can look into an agent.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

Yeah, I'm really out of the loop with certain stuff.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

[AS] is huge as far as late night programming goes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

or make a webseries and hope they see it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

yes we would

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

Oh, I spent about two mins finding out how to pitch to them and we'd probably need to get an agent.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

it hasn't been that way since like 2007

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

i thought it was only on for like 3 hours a few nights a week! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

i didn't realize that Adult Swim is basically considered its own channel and it shares the day with Cartoon Network

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

so do I

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

i think that's a good thing!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

yeah unconventional is a good word

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

ye but allot of them still take time to write a script but ye it's not unprecedented but it feels unconventional

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

i used to know the style as autobio comics, where cartoonists do a freer plot but attempt to capture the feeling of their real lives

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

from what i've seen of it, pretentious was definitely not my impression

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

but I just wan't to redraw what I have or ink it digitally if he want's it quickly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

perspective*

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

from my persective

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

my comic is not as pretentious as his movies but it feels off in the same way

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

though i guess i saw some of his stuff in V/H/S

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i looked at his filmography, not familiar to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

you'd probably hate it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

mokay, he makes these mostly improvised indie movies

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

not that i know of

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

have you ever seen a joe swanberg movie?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

i haven't heard that concept before but it makes sense.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

I think I heard this explanation on a podcast and excepted it as my own

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

but I didn't come to this until after we talked about it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

no but we did talk about that it felt different

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

hmmmm you've got an interesting assessment of the situation. did you two already talk about structure?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

but ye

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

but I don't wan't to re write

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

the problem with that is that when a cartoonist makes a comic that reads more like a novel it might feel weird or wrong

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

i think it would be silly to rewrite it but i guess i sorta can see why a publisher would care

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

yeah i see exactly what you mean about all of that

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

most novelist don't worry to much about structure and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

but that comic is more like a novel, I just started and kept working on it untill it was done

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

most comics are kinda written like movies, based on the structure and shit

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

YUCK

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

YUVK

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I am afraid he'll ask me to re-write

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I know what I want :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

What do you expect?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

What about the meeting tomorrow?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

But I'm talking to the guy who want's to publish the comic about my brother tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

I understand

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

oh yeah i would LOVE that!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

but like an expatiation charlies angles thing could be cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

well that's true

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

They just didn't add anything

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

I don't I think

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

I THOUGHT YOU HATED THEM!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

"One close clear page has Jesus’s face without any eyes and a nose. Someone forgot to draw them on."

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

listening to parttimefanboy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

This guy's reviews are always hilariously bad, but I appreciate them nonetheless. Still... HOW DID HE KNOW IT'S A DAUGHTER?!? Did we let it slip anywhere? http://www.firstcomicsnews.com/?p=156384

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

okay bye

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

i'd imagine even more so when you do so much digital work

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

food time

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

yeah it's terrific to have that sense of completion.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

just having it in the binder with pages that are so close to what the finished product would be feels awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:26am PDT

yeah it's tedious but also satisfying

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

I both love and hate filling in blacks manually

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

yeah it does!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

so you know that means crazyness

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

SWEEEET!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

But, ya know, Action Lab.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

jeeze

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

Kind of annoyed at Kevin because this could've been avoided if he'd just put the correct release date on the issue in the first place.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

So hopefully they can fix that!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

They missed a whole chunk of a page and they repeat a shit load of panels.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:50am PDT

We

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 14, 2015 at 8:39am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

that's crazy, only one option

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

if it would have been Toronto I might have done it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

was that the only option in north america?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

yeah... canada.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

nah

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

so dumb

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

I just wanna make a fucking animation and now I gotta write about target groups

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

ye I hope it's gonna go smoothly

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

we got lucky the past couple of issues, but this new issue could be hella late if the printer has a heavy workload in nov / dec

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

i gotta nag Jason this week to send our book to the printer too

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

yeah, basically :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

hahahahaha fuckers

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i know he went to the Monday Night Football game yesterday which means he was out of town, so maybe that's the problem? who fucking knows with them

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

it's also possible that dave has been doing those

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

so hopefully that'll get the ball rolling

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i just texted dave about the marketing emails

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

seriously....

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Kevin scheduled our issue for the wrong date for comixology

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

Jamal still hasn't sent out the "in stores" email this week... so we might not get many reviews of the new issue.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 13, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

LOVE IT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 12, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

A deep growl emerged from my stomach as a watched a ripe orange fly by. It was a Wednesday afternoon after all. I figured I’d slip into something “more comfortable” as I watched the hippo’s reach for sky. It’s best not to shift to third gear before you crawl. The following is a list of items I need to procure before I continue with this never ending struggle to find the perfect apple pie. I will find it. before I die. A wise man once said constipation is only a problem when you have nothing to read. yellow flamingo’s are a dying breed. Letting the sunshine pierce my eyes feels like an unforgivable act of greed. Crawling backwards tends to increase speed. One: A soul. Without a soul it is impossible to truly comprehend the taste of apple pie. I will find it. before I die. Orange juice.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 12, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

I wrote a poem

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 11, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

thats settled than :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

cuz the Rad stuff and the Bros stuff is fun

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

that dives deeper into the story AND gets people psyched to try it out

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

maybe im crazy but im wondering if we can do it a different way

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

i just think the Origins gave us some buzz

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

I am willing to do some animation

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

it's sorta like we already told it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

just because "Jezus: In Space" sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I have taught about it a couple of times

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

so is there a way to mix the bros and rad?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

but ye I totes agree unless there is a demand I got other shit to tell

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

ooooo nice

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

for me it's Jezus'es brother(s)

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

and for me, that's the Rad stuff we sorta discussed

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

"what holy f*ck story is left untold that i really wanna see"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

same for me

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

so i'm thinking

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

but i would only wanna do it if we've got a demand

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

i like the slipcase idea

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

as do I

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

i kinda assumed we're done

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

unless circumstances change significantly and there's a market demand for more Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

to be honest with you

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

that could be fun

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

I was kinda just thinking something cheesy where our world collides with the F*ck verse

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

what with rad?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

was Rad

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

the first place my brain went to

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

whatcha thinking?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

for the trade thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

maybe we could do something meta

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

I can up with the idea whilst listening to this song

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, October 7, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

this guy is great because his trading card really makes him seem well known and dangerous, yet i've only ever seen him on this trading card http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/74959/cid/5576686/1991-Impel-Marvel-Universe-77-Saracen?PageIndex=1

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

probs

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

i think his biggest claim to fame is probably that Art Adams drew him once for a trading card.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

nice I like the looks of him

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

i can't wait for our run on Thor when we revive Ulik, everyone's favorite rock troll supervillain. and by everyone, i mean no one. http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/74959/cid/5576677/1991-Impel-Marvel-Universe-68-Ulik?PageIndex=1

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

i think i found my new obsession... the trading card database website... http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/74034/cid/5328041/1993-SkyBox-the-Simpsons-S3-Bart-Simpson

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

cewl smart

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

curious if we got lots of late orders

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

i'm emailing Jason about it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

okay

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

well, i think the TPB copies are kept at the printer, not Diamond... so probably not. but i dunno for sure!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

does this effect the trade?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

orrr the ordered very exact

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

weird

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

apparently there are only 9 copies of Holy F*cked #1's regular cover at Diamond's warehouse!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

so i ordered more HF comics

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

it's mah thang

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

that's kind of your thing

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

i know you will

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

just write something when the time comes and I'll make it look cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

ye cool I like

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:14am PDT

I like what Sophie and Kelly did for the Jem bios, though they're a bit too simple for my taste. At least, for what I think would work well for Cougar and Cub. And I think GI Joe was the first to do the bios for their figures... They're not bad, but now that I'm looking at all of this I think something between trading card style and character handbook style might work best. Like a pic, power stuffs, some dossier info like secret identity, age, team affiliation, etc, and then a couple of paragraphs. We already have the beginning of this info in our character bios document, so that's good.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Like maybe a full body pic to the side of the bios instead of a just headshot and the power ratings could have different criteria. Maybe even some joke categories like "Sexiness" or "Deadliness"

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:57am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

K

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

I'll talk more after dinenr

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

That Hank Pym one is cool but it also looks crazy detailed! I'm down with handbook style bios if you're really into it. But I was thinking trading card / action figure kinda things because they're way simpler. Lemme find the kind I mean...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

cewl :)

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

Pfft if not until we're done with the entire story! They're definitely not a priority.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

have to coook

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:45am PDT

like that right

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

I don't feel like putting work into it untill I'm done with #3

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:44am PDT

Buttz

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

BUT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

I'm into it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

I gets it

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:42am PDT

This way we can get the readers familiar with the heroes and villains without having to do stupid expositional dialogue. Also, we can strategically place them in the issues to enhance the reading experience based upon the content of the issue.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

I like that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:41am PDT

ahhh ye cool

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

Mainly I mention it now because I think that's what Cougar should be doing on the Catputer. It could be "Cougar's Cat-alog of Crime" or something like that.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

it's a nice thing to keep in mind

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:40am PDT

ye thats cool

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:38am PDT

So I have an idea I've been meaning to tell you about... I think it might be cool to have 2 or 3 "dossiers" in the back of each issue. Kinda like the back of trading cards or action figure packages, with a short bio and power ratings.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:37am PDT

he has his own rulezz

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Also, love how Meowz has his feet up like he's just too cool for everyone.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

Yeah he's totally cracked out!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:35am PDT

hehehe thats his thang

Nick MarinoMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

Lookin good!!!! Fuckin Dicky cracks me up. He just looks funny to me in every panel.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, October 5, 2015 at 8:08am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

coooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

and just add you to the call

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

like after the second question i'll be like "oh hold on a sec"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

sure! why not

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

what do you think?

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

i say we surprise him

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

that would be hilarious

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

HAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

a romance novel?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

ehmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

ye I think that time would work

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

Unrelated, we need a good joke for the screen of the Catputer!

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 8:08pm PDT

Also, something funny we could do is surprise him and add you to the Skype conversation five mins into it.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

I heard from a writer from the Word of the Nerd blog who reached out to me about doing a Skype interview this Wednesday at 9 am my time. That would be 6 pm your time. Before I ask him about getting you in on it, I want to see if that time would work for you!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

thanks :) I think it's pretty funny

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it's the best idea yet

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

and that would probably cost more than the slipcase

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

brilliant

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

"where's Holy F*ck 3?" "oh it's a stretch goal."

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i love that

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

hahahahahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

ok the basis is still the slipcase, it's so stoopid it's perfect. but now we skip F*ck 3 and Jump ahead to 4 so 4 would start coming out around the time the slipcase kickstarter would launch. now we get the twist HF3 would be a starch goal and would only be one issue BOOOM

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

he can still be

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

but it doesn't matter that much

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

is black

Nick MarinoSunday, October 4, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

I'd just rather have a finished book for them than a classic pitch

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

I'm cool with pitching it to them

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

in 2-3 months when we pitched to everyone and the book is done

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

you'd mentioned something like taking this book to Action Lab when it's done?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

gotta give them a couple of months

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

i mean, action lab took 3 motnhs

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

how long would you like to wait?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

and color

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

i like every issue in b+w

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

I like this issue in B&W

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

but i'm thinking something like "Congratulations, dear readers! You've reached the mid-point of our saucy tail. As you can see, we've carefully constructed an emotional climax to make you feel like things are only going to get better from here. But I promise you... they're going to get much, much worse."

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

it's campy

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

I like narration

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

i'll try out a few things

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

in our narrator voice

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

i might need to do a caption on that page

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

you better!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

LOVE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

ohhhhh baybe

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

oh well

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

my job will take literally 3 minutes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

the problem is i can't use their self-service printers because they're garbage

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

so i guess i'll send the pitches off on monday

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

my copies won't be ready until sunday?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

ye baby

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

the SPLASH!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

SWEEEET!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

I'm working on page 13

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

well enough talk about that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

good :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

well it works for me!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

but copying someone else's act usually sucks so I had to find my own thingie

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

the concept was "what if Tobias Funke had a cooking show?"

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

like "Toby is so desperately lonely that he's willing to put this totally average recipe online and be weird about it"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

cooking segment

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

and awkward

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

funny

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

to me the message was

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

well i think it works well

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

ye I still had to get the "message" across

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

it's funny cuz i could see the parts where i could definitely see you acting and the parts where i knew it was regular you

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

it's all my awkward parts

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

probably yes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i think it's an aspect of Daniel but not all of him

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

for all I know that is how I am always

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

It's hard to explain... I can't tell how much Toby is Daniel

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

so with Toby, what do you see there? like how do you feel about it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

all I see is me

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

but with the acting you don't have any objectivity?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

I can take some kind of distance from my art and see it semi-objectively

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

I guess It's harder to step back from it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

ehmmm

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hmmm why do you think that disconnect is there?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

but similar as I have with music there is a certain disconnect

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

it used to be one of my biggest passions

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

but I can't tell

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I think I'm pretty okay at it

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

weird can be good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

my relationship with acting is weird

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

ye maybe :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

we should share this on the Holy F*ck places when you're all done with it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

hehehe thanks

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it's really fucking good

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it's wonderful

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

Toby, eating all by himself

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

finished it and I LOVE IT!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

3.5 mins in and I LOVE IT!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

I wrote it so we know its funny :P

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

and thanks!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

i love the beginning so far

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

OMG this video is great

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

if you'd like

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

fuuuuuck

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

I can't load it into editing programs on a mac.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

that's annoying you've had to do so many notes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

like useless as in your Mac can't convert it?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

it's a 5 minute movie and I'm on my 5th round of giving notes

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

it's kinda useless

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

is that bad?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

I need to make a video with other people and some dude send me a WMV

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

no worries

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

don't have time to look at it right now

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

i tried to make the Fanta one make it seem like we're more literary

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

#5 will be Sugar Mama and Miss Chievous. by that point, even villain will have had a fight scene, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

#4 is mostly Diaper Rash

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

it's kinda cool but the fact that I don't know what I'll be drawing yet stresses me the fuck out

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

cool1

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I'm doing half a 24HCD

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

ye it can't hurt

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

also, page 3 is totally up their alley, with the cartoon violence

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

maybe the person who reads our pitch talks to someone who talks to someone and we end up with another publisher

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

i mean, who knows what'll happen with Fantagraphics

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

he was

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

ye that was nice

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

they're one of the few places that actually bothered to send us a rejection letter last time

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

nahhhhh i've gone this far, i'll fuckin mail em. bastards

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

but I'd totally understand it if you would skip 'em

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Fantagraphics is weird

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

but then that's the same thing i said about Action Lab at first

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

part of me is like "why even waste our time with Fantagraphics?"

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, October 2, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

i think i just devised one of the most fucked up superhero fight scenes of all time. i really hope you agree when you read it. ;)

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

ye I understand what they mean so it's no biggie

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

yeah tbh i dunno what people consider to be compliments when it comes to that stuff. i wouldn't use simple like that but i also think simple is a good thing because it can mean clear and effective.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

the spirit behind it is good but still

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

it is kinda easy but simple is not really a compliment

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

it was only sort of easy

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

like we make it look like it was easy to make the comic. FOOLS!!! THEY DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

but i feel like everyone compliments how well it works... so maybe you just make it look simple

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

fantastic.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

not sharing your love of whoopie goldberg

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

oh you were celebrating

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

whoop[ whoop

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

i concur

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

YES

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:08am PDT

it helpes taht we don't suck

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:07am PDT

frankly, i think the sales will most likely be a product of us building our names up over a couple of years

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

ye I think we have a pretty nice buzz going on so sooner or later it should translate into sales

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:06am PDT

and they just sort of fade away

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

conversely, i see these creators who have new books but don't promote them or actively seek our reviews and so on

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

i've paid attention to the way this stuff works for other creators... it's like they have to be bumping around on the internet for a few years before they're considered established. and then all of a sudden they've got all these projects lined up

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

it's doing fine but most of that is how i present it, it looks like people are constantly talking about it and loving it

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

like, people say to me "oh wow it looks like Holy F*ck is doing REALLY well!" and stuff like that

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

i dunno how true this is, but i think that the more buzz we create the more (hopefully) opportunities we'll get

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

:P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

if only it would translate to sales

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 9:01am PDT

yeah that site has been really good to us

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

happy they like it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 8:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:35am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:34am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

oh yeah it does

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

haha he definitely has!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

but that just sounds like bojack horseman

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

it kinda wants me to make a story about an alf like character who hit rock bottom

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

so cool!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 7:27am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

but this is also someone who's first published comic book was Jem and her dream is to write for Marvel / DC, so she's probably got a whole other standard for this stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

she's also complained about their page rates to me in the past

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

kelly says "Jem has been a great hit, you're right. It's so hard to understand the numbers to me (and they don't really share them anyway, even if they do know them...which...who the fuck knows). And IDW is SO BAD at promotion and PR...so I feel like they really do a shit job of capitalizing on what's going so well about the book. I get the feeling they don't have enough people on hand to do what needs to be done."

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

what are her complaints?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

nighty

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

good stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

but i'm sure there's some small press self publisher out there losing her shirt over printing comics who would think the same thing about my complaints

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

culthit hehehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

okay I'm gonna do some reading in bed

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

so i guess it's all perspective

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

hahahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Kelly complains about IDW and calls Jem a "cult hit"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

whu?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 29, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

sorry, just posting solicits and had to mention it

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

96 becomes 128 i mean

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

ye, it's weird

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

so 96 pages becomes 32

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

because they include the ads and covers, they can add them into the page count

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

the action lab TPB policy is so fucking trashy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

so am I

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

cool, well i'm psyched to find out how everything goes!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

ye but there are more things that could use some fixing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

i meant trace your scanned pages

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

ooops

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

also, can't you just basically scan your traced pages?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

but i'm not a publisher and i totally understand!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

i think there's a big appeal for me in the ballpoint pen approach and for example if you sold it at SPX, that would be huge i bet

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

i can understand

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

but the current version is hard to sell

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

part of it is because there is already a version of the story and I'd rather not redo it for nothing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

well see that sounds like a proper book deal, which is cool

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

WHOOOOOAA for reals?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

I'm gonna have to redraw the whole thing in a more finished style and stuff, but were gonna negotiate a contract and stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

GOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

I'm also gonna have another talk with the guy who wants to do the book about my brother

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

hope so

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

i'm sure it'll be good enough, though

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

ugh fucking camera work

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

I wrote it and pretty much directed it but it hard to gage if the camera work is good

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

nice

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

Also, Minerva looks like she's gonna poop herself and I approve.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

cewl

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

yeah! but she sent me another email so she might have more to say. i haven't read it yet.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

ye she might just not be that into it

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

thank you :blush:

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Hmmm was her crit useful? I dunno, I gotta go back through and reread it. At the time, I felt like it was stuff that was 1. mostly a matter of taste and 2. mostly a matter of her reading a work in progress. I remember she had a similar reaction to reading just the first issue of HF. But that might also be me feeling defensive!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

yes you write them very well

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

This page is terrific!!!!!!! I love when the rogues sit around and bicker :D

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

ploep

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 2:34am PDT

did she say anything useful?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 1:37am PDT

maybe thats just where her mind is at

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 27, 2015 at 1:36am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 10:25pm PDT

i heard back from Kelly, who really only had critical things to say about our first issue. it was kinda weird too because i didn't ask for any critical feedback! but i guess she really felt compelled to give it! hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

byyeee!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

catch ya latur

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

just a bit bland

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

I guess it's fine

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

not my thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

also, it looks good, like good production design

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

it's a hot mess but it's fun because it's so illogical

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

"yeah and we'll make sure EVERYTHING is connected. like every famous batman character knows each other for no reason."

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

I think some people are annoyed at the fact that they did not adapt it

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

"good idea. we should make two white guys who suck our mains. everyone will love it!"

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

"okay, but i don't want a black guy and a lesbian latina as our main characters."

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

"lets take Gotham Central and adapt it!"

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Kevin Smith was doing a podcast commenting on every episode but he quit, so he didn't have to watch the show anymore

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:40pm PDT

catwoman is a precocious tween who watches as the waynes get killed

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Jesus runs for president

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

something without others gods probably

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

more like something Jezus did before Maria found him

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

Zeus is Jesus's real father, Satan is his brother, Maria is his great great great grandaughter

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

hahaha like a prequel that shows how everything is tied together?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

but still call it 3

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

maybe even a prequel

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

or in the ONS style

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

out of place like how?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

hehehe yeah it is but it's fun to come up with ideas for it!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

but almost a years work for conceptual art seems a bit much

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

Like I think the 3rd one should almost feel out of place and only be 3 issues and then there should be a fourth one that connects very well with Fucked and then slipcase

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

nothing really I just get these conceptual ideas

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

what was your idea for a third one?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

a cheap man's hardcover

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

ugh a couple of days ago I got the idea to do a third series and then kickstart a box to put em in

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

real easy to print

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

it might have helped that we only had 5 orders

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

though im not convinced it's for real

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 26, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

DAMN IT TITAN

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

like are you incapable of stapling things? under what circumstances would you be reading page three of our pitch and lose rest?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

ugh yeah that sucks

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

and less books

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

that way it's clearly established in p4 and p6, but p5 lets the feelings take over, mannnn!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

why don't you NOT draw the bookshelves in panel 5 and just do a some motion lines / explosions lines around them to emphasize the emotion

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

well see

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

mja

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

they like it a little raw

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

the funny thing is that i don't feel like we're that far off from thr fantagraphics style

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

My first Instinct is "Does it really matter?"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

fucking facebook

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 10:00am PDT

and yes, I't gonna be a bit before I can color the whole thing and if they don't like the colors they might still like the line art

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

okay cool

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

yes, we want that package to be as complete as possible

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

yes and yes

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

ALSO... should i make the first issue PDF half color / half black and white?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

should i put it on the front of the first issue PDF?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

alright fine. those fuckers don't deserve it! hahahaha!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

nah it's cool don't give it to them if they dont ask

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

"that's why i'm on the fence"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

which said "but it fucking rocks so i'm like why not give it to them?"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

didn't work for a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

mine was aswell

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

i sent you other messages after that

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

ugh my facebook is tweaking out

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

then don't give it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

that's my thing... like no one asks for it... the Shadowline thing was kinda rare in that case.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

I don't think it will but I guess you can keep it out if they don't ask for it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

so that was my thing... like will it be distracting for them? i don't think so but i'm open to considering the possibilities

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

most publishers don't ask for covers

Nick MarinoThursday, September 24, 2015 at 9:21am PDT

good point, it's not a fake one..

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 24, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

as for the branding thing, I think most publishers appreciate it if they can tell the creators put some thought into it. Also we don't have any fake covers now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:59pm PDT

ehmmm if they ask for a cover we should just give them a cover, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:54pm PDT

cover letter and /synapse look good. The character thing cool be cool, but only if you keep the entire character thing under a page.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

night night

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

Anyway, bed for me! Tomorrow... sending out pitchesssss!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

I love the cover but I remember the way our branding kinda made things weird with Jason. I doubt we'd be in that exact situation again, but is it worth avoiding any branding with the pitch? Or would our branding be more persuasive?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

We've got PDFs of our pages in two ways... with cover and without cover. Which do you think we should primarily be sending out?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

I would REALLY like your input on something else, though...

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

I started doing a synopsis with character bios but it just felt too forced to me. We can always share that with them later if they want to see more.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:05pm PDT

i'm thinking about doing a version of the synopsis that also has some short character bios on a second page. thoughts?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:05pm PDT

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B67SE_xwXHvsRElfd2pCb1F4V1U

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:05pm PDT

cover letter and synopsis are done

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 11:04pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

there is a big chance we'll end up back at AL but atleast we tried

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 10:50pm PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31pm PDT

With that said, I still think it's worth pitching other companies, even if it's a long shot.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:30pm PDT

I hate to say it, but no one out there is doing matures readers stuff with a wide variety of art styles.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:30pm PDT

I just looked over the publishers with books in the Oct 2015 Previews catalog... chances are, we're already with the best publisher for Cougar and Cub! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:17pm PDT

mostly just fighting from here on out

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

ah

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

and the one other balloon / dialogue that was bugging me

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

it's a super small tweak

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

the last sentence

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

I don't see any difference

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

OR

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

no problemo

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

that balloon was always awkward to me

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

i'm glad you said something about it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I like

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

good fix

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

i'm thinking it directs the reader to the next panel a bit better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

noiice

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

okay :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

but i think i have an even better solution

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

it's not terrible

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

otherwise it no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

doesn't it work on the bottom?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

suggestions?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

i'll see what i can do

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

one the first panel of the fourth page the tail on the word balloon seems a bit awkward

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

nicceee

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

i was like "HE'S NOT COLORING THE LETTERED PAGES I GET IT NOW DID I EVEN UPLOAD THEM AT ALL AND DOES IT EVEN MATTER"

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

in an oddly timed and unnecessary OMG moment

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

understood

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

yeah i realized all of this when i woke up this morning

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

not like an actually important thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

beacause last time you flatted the lettered pages

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

yeah it's all good, i was mostly curious

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

now I just kinda forgot when I started

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

I'll probably do that

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

or is that not as easy for you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

would you be down to use the lettered one for future coloring?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

yeah i figured

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

thats why I asked about the lettering

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:31am PDT

k, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

no I am using my inks

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

just thinking back to you mentioning something about letters the other day

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

are you using the lettered versions i uploaded to the drive? or the versions of the inks you sent me?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

sexxxy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 23, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:58pm PDT

oehhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

i bet no one looks at the files i give to Kevin for ComiXology

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 22, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 9:28pm PDT

might be worth filling it out just in case

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 9:28pm PDT

i thought i'd let you know that the professional applications is now open

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 9:27pm PDT

but just in case

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 9:27pm PDT

so i know it's a long shot that we'd be going back to SDCC in 2016

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 9:27pm PDT

i mean the colors of the letters, that is.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

yeah don't worry about the letters, i need to tweak the colors anyway

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

you probably want to put the lettering on the pages yourself right?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hasve fubnbds

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

it's a nice drawing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

hehehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

and now I am to lazy to shade

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

so I saw this drawing:

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

perfectemundo

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

so it'll be a good reference

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

a regular works well because it's the first panel on the page and our readers will have already seen the Regulars

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

otherwise just do something random

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

i'll just use a Regular in that panel instead

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

I dunnno none might make most sense

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

or she could just not have any

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

anything in particular you want to draw for her henchies? they don't show up much, really

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

but yeah so back to Miss Chievous

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

like hairy gruff guys and big ripped women

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

i think maybe like body builders in baby outfits would work well

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

oh ye I wouldn't like that

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

because Cub beats the shit out of them

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

oh we can't do that

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

yeah it is

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

fucked up

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

they could all be pregnant women

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

hahaha or for Diaper Rash

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

or is that too Joker?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

clowns?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

for Miss Chievous

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

also cool

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

are just adults dressed like babies

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

what if his henchies

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

like the cream of the crop, they get to clean royal dipers

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

the thing you send me are fancy english nannies

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

ye if it gets said it's cool

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

but i wanted to ask you about what would be the visual touchstone for DR's henchies

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

he name drops Diaper Rash in the panel and i think it'll be obvious

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

i'm writing a scene where Cub interrogates a few different henchies

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

why would have to say it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

ehmmm

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

like, how would it be clear that someone is Diaper Rash's henchie if Diaper Rash isn't there?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

I think so ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

i found these pics... i think it's british

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

not really

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

like, do nannies have a sort of assumed outfit / uniform

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

sure

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

i mean nannies

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

or wait

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

should his henchies be nurses?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

so Diaper Rash

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

soo

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

guess

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

that makes them real, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

they don't seem to be on comixology

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

i mean, they have a webpage

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

i've never read them or even really heard about them but i know it's a thing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

they've done a few books

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Amazon publishing that is

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Amazon has a comics imprint?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

we would almost have to

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Regardless of how much it sucks

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

We publish the one book that actually does it right

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

"Follow these rules or your submission will be REJECTED."

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

hahaha YES

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

94 DPI

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

7.5 pages reading from right to left with your name in size 13 font on the bottom left corner of every page except for the fourth page, where it should be watermarked in the middle

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

we should start a publisher just so we can make arbitrary submission requirements

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

and then for the peeps who want 8 pages, we'll do 4-11

Nick MarinoMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

yep, 6-11

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 21, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:09pm PDT

I'm thinking about reaching out to some places we haven't contacted before... Dynamite and Skybound

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:03pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 10:21pm PDT

no one publisher is standing out to me at the moment but that might change over the next few days

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 10:21pm PDT

i think we should just do what we decided... color pages 6-11 and send those out along with a link to the PDF of issue #1

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 10:20pm PDT

the submission requirements are ALL OVER the map

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

it kinda sucks

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

but the readers want a modern version

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

yeah and the old versions are inevitably more appealing because they were simpler

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

how many lines are on superman's alien armor or how many times Wolverine has died

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

plus all the old versions racing trough your head

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

like there's so many stupid things to keep track of

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

it's too complicated

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

everybody always wants to cut out the learning and hard work parts of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

she might really like Portland

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

but I haven't had the opportunity yet

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

I hope to be able to speak with a teacher about it soon

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

leather and jeans

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

San Jose, San Fran, etc

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

they do have lots of cons up there

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

well that might be her kinda place then

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

yes she wishes she had more "Hipster" friends

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

she thinks Hipster is a compliment

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

ye but she's kinda into that :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

not as bad as NYC or Boston, but still

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

they're kinda uptight there

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

San Fran is not cool like SoCal

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

it's overpriced and overrated

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

but it's to expensive

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

she wanted to go to San Fransisco

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

Amanda NEEDS to go a semester abroad, but what is best for us might not match up

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

hehehe but ye we'll see

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

hella

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

cuz a fucking apartment will be heall expensive

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

yeah that's why i saying you should just stay with me

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

right

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

one of the big things is that, due to financial reasons me going there might mean I won't see Amanda for almost 6 months

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

a Spring semester out here would get you the Long Beach show in Feb, WonderCon in April, and a bunch of shows in northern Cali too i think

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

yes we have the best weather by far

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

you could so Baltimore Con, SPX, and NYCC

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but ye

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but California weather is the best

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but that would be for a fall semester probably

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

so you can go between DC, Baltimore, Philly, and New York

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

on the east coast

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

mid-atlantic

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

hmmmm

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

I wanna go where the cons are :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i think it might be technically illegal for us to have a 3rd person live in our apartment, oddly enough

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

just go allot goings on right now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

and i'm gonna keep in mind that Stique and school take priority over the next week so i totally understand if things change, NO PRESSURE!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

okay cool sounds good to me!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

so if school doen't get craycray I think I should be able to finish coloring on wed/thursday

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

I'm gonna start with them tomorrow so IF I wold do 1 a day I can start coloring on monday

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

yeah of course!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

I kinda have my mind set on doing the Stique pages first

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

if you're really enjoying working on #3, we can just pitch it later

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

rush

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

also, there's no rish

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

and i don't want to create a timeline that's a pain in the ass for you! just something realistic that works well for you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

of course

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

the colors are the big thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

I think I can color those pages in the first half of the week

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

thoughts?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

since companies are actively getting their 2016 projects in place BUT it's long enough before NYCC that they'll still be answering emails

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

mhhh ye ehmmmm

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

i think the next week or so might be a good time

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

so maybe we can come up with a pitch timeline?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

like i said, i'm gonna basically wrap up my publisher research today

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

alright, well that was easy

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

also agree with that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

that also starts with action and a joke

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

and for them, i think we can do pgs 4-11

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

one or two ask for 8 pages

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

which is what most publishers want

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

so that's 6 pages

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

and it ends on a cliffhanger PLUS we introduce a villain

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

then the romance

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

then it has character drama

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

then it goes into action

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

it starts off with a joke

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

I think you might be right

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

I hope you don't hate me for suggesting it, but I actually think our best pitch would be pgs 6-11

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

i think we at least need to get to the kiss, if not the next page after it

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

and frankly, while i love those pages, i don't think the first five pages make for the strongest pitch out of the issue

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

yep so onto the next one!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

super quick

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

But it was nice and quick so there ya go :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

Shadowline sayz NOOOOOOO!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i hope we hear from Shadowline soon even if its a rejection

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yes we do

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

we definitely needs to figure out our options

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

i loves

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

everything works

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

this page is AMAZING!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

I understood :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

my bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

i meant to say "back in the spring i couldn't find any way" to reach them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

mhhh ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

but none of them have been very responsive to me over the past year, so i'm not in a great position to reach out to them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

thats something!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

i have friends who're friends with Steve Niles (who's a founder of the company)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

back in the spring, i could fine any way to reach out to them in terms of submissions

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i would LOOOOOOVE to work with them!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

waddabout blackmask?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

but i'd rather not do either or those

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

yep, i'm not closed to anything

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

it might get to either that or Kickstarter

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

heheheh

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

but i'm not into last resorts

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i mean, i will as a last resort...

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

I could but I'd rather not

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

dunno if i have it in me to do another book with ALE

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

sigh i really hope we end up at Shadowline

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

and whoever rewrote my solicit copy kinda effed it up the formatting

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

nah and honestly next to nobody looks at these Previews website pages anyway

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

ye it doesn't look that far off

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

at least compared to #1

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

this one actually looks pretty snappy to me in CMYK though

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

oh welll

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

593x900

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

I'm about 99% sure someone else gave them a CMYK file of our cover because I never sized it to 593x600!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

of course!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

I hope I do

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

I'm gonna ink like 4 pages of ONS and then I'm gonna draw those pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

it works really well

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

the way it escalates so quickly

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

the pacing of everything

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

the eyes on page one

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

there's a lot of nice stuff going on there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

kaylie, michelle, wouter, anddddddddd

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

in retrospect we probably shoulda done friend variants for every issue

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

but are they amazing to me regardless of that? YES!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

would you draw them better now? YES!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

jezus ahs like 3 elbows

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

but they are poorly drawn

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

and the non-subtle phallic imagery

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

nerdy satan, studly jesus

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i think it's because the character shots are so clear and direct

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

duuuude people love those original covers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

Kaylie is awesome tough

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

when i tell them that the Satan one for #4 is an homage, they get really into it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

ugh I hate mine for #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

they also REALLY like your original variants from Holy F*ck #1

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

people love hers

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

we should do more variants with her

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

maybe kaylie

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

i'll probably hit up aaron and kelly with it eventially

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:17am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ON55tZFAnwc

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

ya know, for the eventual Adult Swim show

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

so it's like Anansi vs. Rad in a storytelling competition or something

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

Rad can be like a moody teenage writer

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

like somehow she rescued all of their stories

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

each one of Anansi's spider eyes should be a fucking god's head!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

but if we did

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:14am PDT

not like we're doing a volume three

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

that reminds me

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

OH

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

but also they already have black Jezus

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

because F*cked is like a status quo while F*ck is like a one-off thing, like a movie

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

oh yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

I actually thing F*cked would fit better than F*ck

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:13am PDT

ofcourse

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:12am PDT

and all weekend trust me "this should be on Adult Swim!"

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:12am PDT

no they won't

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:12am PDT

and they won't

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:12am PDT

yes an agent would help unless AL actively goes out

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:11am PDT

lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:11am PDT

i might need to get an agent or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:11am PDT

his buddy had a manager

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

i talked to a guy who pitched to Adult Swim before

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

it is

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:09am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:07am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:07am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 2:07am PDT

Image or Danger Zone

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

for all of the captions, i mean.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:21am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

combining now

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

i guess maybe do you wanna upload this latest version and i'll combine it with mine? (all i really need it the logo but i wanna make sure it's placed just like yours)

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

the thing is there's absolutely zero wrong with the design now like i think you just absolutely killed the logo with the latest version

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

do you think we can just fix that with typography?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

fair point, I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

i like the design it's solid but i guess it just doesn't feel like it reflects the vibe of the story and the characters to me

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:07am PDT

what don't you like?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

i dunno man, i like it and i don't

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 15, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:59pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:59pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:48pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

it's just so fucking tough to get the letters evenly spaced and balanced

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

the more i work with this Crypt Keep logo, the more i have mixed feelings about it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

I don't think a logo is going to make or break a deal.....

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

you know what....

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

I kinda dig it!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

CryptCreep Heavy BB

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

12 letters split evenly at 6

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i just love that the name has so much symmetry in it.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

but i'm open to using it if it's important to you!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

and the publishing plan

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

at least, not at the moment

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

we still use that right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

yes it does I also need to figure the One Night Stand part out

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

i think the great thing about our title is that it lends itself to simplicity

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

I'll figure it out

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

well THE most important thing to me is that you're feeling everything we're putting out there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

fuck dude i LOVEEEEE the shading on there

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

if i'm not mistaken

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

like halfway between that and where it was should be the sweet spot

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

i think that might actually be too much!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

it wouldn't be Cougar and Cub if i wasn't picking out something completely pointless to critique hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

cmon

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

but i mean

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

and that's fairly inconsequential

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

but i could be 100% wrong about that

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

i also think it might look good just a hair to the right, a tad more behind the C in Cub

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

it's almost tangenting

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

in Cougar

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

it's so close to touching the bottom of the front of the C

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

my gut tells me it might need to go down just a hair

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

for the "and"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

whats you and thing?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

you're really fucking planning ahead and i LOVE it

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

yeah no illustrator is brilliant

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

though you may have already tried this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

so we can out it on everything

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

i do have one tiny suggestion about the 'and'

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

oh cool so it'll be all vector and shit!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

it'll make it blend even better with your art

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

the final logo will be made in illustrator

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

i think that's a brilliant idea

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

i REALLY like it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

just for now

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

so you're adding a hand drawn outline to each letter?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

i'm feeling where that's going!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

lemme make an example

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

like how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

I should probably make it feel more solid

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

happy you like it

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

its got a great feel and a cool perspective to the block shadow

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

it's bangin!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

nah worked on it 4 days ago

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

did you just whip that up now?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

HEEEYYY snazzy logo!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

PERFECT!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

whoops wrong comic

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

lemme put a random logo on it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

but if the original is fucked, there's not much i can do

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

if the original isn't fuzzed, then i can salvage it and fix the audio

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

or did it just record like this?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

the question is... did raise the volume in post production and the original recording isn't fuzzed?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

probably ye

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

so the result is that we're super fuzzed out and he's a little quiet

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

the recorder was too close to us and too far from him

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

i think he used an external recorder and put it up to the speaker on his laptop or whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

your mic is fine

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

noooo it's something he did

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

like I know my mic sucks but this is just horrid

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

notice

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

maybe he didn't even motice

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

i asked Chris about the recording

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:55am PDT

yep my thoughts too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:44am PDT

everybody's got their own thing

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:44am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

definitely not

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

are they mormons?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

thats creepy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

oeh

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

so i guess they are hooking up

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

and he says it seriously

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

also, Mike now calls Morgan "his other wife"

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

they look good

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

oh i got to see our new #1s this weekend at Mike and Morgan's booth

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:42am PDT

boobs of death

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:41am PDT

GOOD

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:35am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

they just overshadow everything?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

the whole page?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

like

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

so we're talking massive boob shadow then?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

I have studies 50's lady fashion for this comic

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:33am PDT

cool, gotcha

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:33am PDT

ohhhh yeah i definitely see it on the last one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:30am PDT

another one :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

maybe a better example

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:28am PDT

like it isn't very defined and she has the buttons in the middle

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:27am PDT

yes but look at her boobs

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:26am PDT

thats a nice dress

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:26am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:26am PDT

two years from now - Nick: "hey remember when we had that really detailed boob debate for the cougar cover?" Daniel: "yes that was stupid."

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:25am PDT

yeah i think that would work even better

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:25am PDT

maybe i'll do it in the shading

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

meh

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

not saying she does

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

maybe she needs a tiny little boob outline on the side / bottom of her right boob?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

otherwise you get boob bags

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

gotcha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:24am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

i thought the whole thing was the line of her boobs

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

ye but because of the angle they kinda become one shape

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

that's her torso

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

on a slant

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

that's not her boobs

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

i see

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

that wasa serious thing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

OR WAIT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

more pink

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

THATS IT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

thats kinda how it works

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

only because it stuck out to me when looking at it now

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

but i'm basically just wondering (not like we're working with realism here or anything but) if it should logically be rotated a little

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:22am PDT

I think so too

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:21am PDT

it also helps the angle a little

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:21am PDT

i think that size increase looks great!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

would maybe the C be like that too?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

but since her boob line is on a diagonal

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

cuz right now it's like straight up and down

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:20am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:19am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:19am PDT

i mean like this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:15am PDT

I'll fix it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:14am PDT

it kinda is I juist accidentally made it to small

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:13am PDT

should her C maybe be on the same angle as her boobies?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:13am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:13am PDT

only one question...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:13am PDT

:) thank you

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:12am PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS these flats fucking rock!!!! AND THE PIT STAINS ARE MAJESTIC!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:11am PDT

I'll think about it some more

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:11am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:10am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:10am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:10am PDT

also, which word looks better on a cover?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:09am PDT

or do you want to present it with strength? though that strength is really just an illusion in the presentation because bathos still means the same thing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:08am PDT

do you want this project to have an outward projection of its irony... it's vurlnerability, in a way

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:08am PDT

i guess then it comes down to

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:08am PDT

mhhh ye

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:08am PDT

ye thats were we were at aswell

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:07am PDT

while Bathos is like "this might be a little serious"

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:07am PDT

i feel like Bathetic clearly wears the irony of the name on its sleeve

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:07am PDT

the title

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

so yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

with good reason

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

mine is called the cougar

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

my ONS folder is called "hero sex" because that's the only thing we knew was going to happen for sure

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:06am PDT

HAHAHA! yes!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:05am PDT

yes and to know how to call teh folder :P

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:05am PDT

to have that feeling

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:05am PDT

but i also know how important it can be to have that name in mind ahead of time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:05am PDT

mhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:04am PDT

my first impression, after hearing how you two were trying to figure out which one you both like the best, is that maybe you should wait and see if the story feels more like a "Bathetic" or a "Bathos" as it comes together a bit mroe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:03am PDT

as do I

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:03am PDT

i like both of the names...

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:03am PDT

oh yeah those are the only ones i know too!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:02am PDT

bathetic vs. bathos is all I know

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:01am PDT

on the bathetic vs. bathos thing? or on the title ideas in general?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 5:00am PDT

what are your thoughts on it? I 'm very divided

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 4:58am PDT

yeah!!! we talked about it a bunch

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 4:44am PDT

did you hear about Stiques story title ideas?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 14, 2015 at 4:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, September 13, 2015 at 7:23am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, September 13, 2015 at 7:23am PDT

i just saw the variants thing. NICE!

cool, so i'll combine the styles. works for me!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

the yellower bubbles don't work well with the purple backgrounds of some pages

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

I like the colored caption boxes but I slightly prefer the black and white speech bubbles

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

i just did that myself... got my own opinion on what works best but i'd like to hear yours first if that's okay!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yes I'll put them next to eachother later

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

otherwise, all text (except for the title page) is black

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

but those are versions of the pages where the only things colored are slightly gradients in the caption boxes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

okidoki

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

i gotta get ready for the con now!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

i haven't had a chance to change the greetings gradient yet... maybe tonight or another night this weekend

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:10am PDT

maybe I should have made it seperate things

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

I'm not sure what would feel better but the gradient covering the whole thing seems a bit much

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

as for the greetings thing, any suggestions for what you might like more? are you saying it's too colorful?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

cool i'll send you a version without colored balloons and see what you think

Nick MarinoFriday, September 11, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

cool i

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 3:41am PDT

I like the caption boxes. not crazy about the colored speech bubbles, but I'm not agains it either

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 3:39am PDT

I think the greetings thing is a bit to much

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 11, 2015 at 3:39am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

thats so weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

thats most of what I got right now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

One of the things that interested me in using Hercules in the sequel is that he and Jezus are not that different from each other. Both men were children of gods but were raised by mortals, and both had to go trough trails to achieve a full god state. Yet Hercules sees himself as more then man because of this while Jezus is more in touch with his human side.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

sooo ye :3

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

the third one is minerva out of costume and billy in the meowz costume

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

the second issue is them kinda awkward and looking in opposite directions

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

so like the first issue is them happy

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i had a funny idea for a corner box where their faces change for every issue

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

ye it can go like anywhere

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

so i figure if we leave the top left corner blank, then we're good

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

they specifically said they don't need to see their logo on there

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

solid layout too because we've got plenty of room to work with at the top

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

I'm happy you do man!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

i really dig it!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

it's also more fun, the other one was kinda grim

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

it opens things up a bit

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

looking at them side by side, i think this new one is much stronger

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

oh yeah i'm looking at both of them next to each other... it's really different!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

I took some of both

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

I kinda mixed 2 up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

is that a different layout from before?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

looks pretty snazzy!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

the logo is also just a rough

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

plastic?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

almost like.....

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

very smooth

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

look at those legs

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

it's fantastic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

eastman has a cool style, i forget what his new covers look like though

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

i tend to be really all or nothing about covers, like gimme a fucking crammed story cover with dialogue and tons of lettering or gimme a minimalist action shot with just a logo on it. hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

I've also been looking at modern kevin eastman covers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

heheheheh

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i trust you to make an awesome cover

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

i'm open to anything! i might complain about inspiration material like sixth gun but i wouldn't say don't do it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

I'll probably end up going for an oldschool thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

I am over simplifying it a bit but ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

i don't tend to

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

i don't quite see it the same way... especially because i think tend to think of other covers as just drawings with a logo pasted on them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

I'm not saying we should do that but the approach elevates covers from just a drawing with a logo pasted on to a true design

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

but they're distinctive, i'll give em that!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

but they

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

i think their images are overly cluttered and incomprehensible and the logo placement is awful

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

i'd be fine with anything cool you do, regardless of my own personal taste

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

but that's just me!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

they're ugly

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

yeah i think they

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

have you even seen the 6th guns covers?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

hehe I know part of me wants me to make it look like crappy old comics but part of me wants to do more than just pasting a logo on a drawing

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

but i think that's not as cool to other people

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

personally, our story reminds me of old shit like this

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

hehehe my personal taste is also difficult :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

well i know you care about it! which i think is great. i'm normally only interested in satisfying my own personal aesthetic, so i'm glad you give a shit about more than just that hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

but you know I always give myself a hard time about branding and covers

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

i agree that their comixology logos have really generic lettering

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

either the top left or bottom right seems to be reserved for the Image "i" and shadowline logo

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

ye image usually is

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

what i'm seeing from a quick google search is that they're open to logo placement anywhere on the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

most of em are kinda.... generic

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

you can see pretty much all of Shadowline's logos here: https://www.comixology.com/Image-Shadowline/comics-publisher/4-6

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

something about goners feels a bit synthetic to me... maybe it's a thin outline? but it's really solid regardless.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

yeah they're both nice!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

pretty good logo

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

mhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:39pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

cewl

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

interesting review:

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

and then page 21 could be Sugar Mama fighting Minerva

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

we can have him be the one who doesn't think they should attack Minerva at home

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

if you want Sugar Mama to be there, i say let's swap out Father Fornicator for the Roach then

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

but i love the layouts!!! i'm totally good with them. i think they work fucking great.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

3. Sugar Mama has a huge fight scene against Cub in #4

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

2. Roach needs to be there to lead them to the Cat Hole.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

1. because i thought it would be good to have the rogues arguing a lot and she's the one who doesn't want to attack Minerva at her home.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

i can change things if you'd rather have her in the end scene! but i'd purposely left her out.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

Sugar Mama's there?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 8:15am PDT

I'm trying to find good cartoony comics

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 4:10am PDT

there ya go some of them are super rough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 2:44am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 2:21am PDT

GOT POUNDED won

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:56am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:54am PDT

but we'll cross that bridge when we get there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:54am PDT

ye probably

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:54am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:54am PDT

probably better for our inevitable John K variant

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:53am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:53am PDT

it's okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:49am PDT

but put it next to some of your interiors and it doesn't look bad

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:49am PDT

ehmmmm

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:49am PDT

i can't speak for whatever you have planned for the cover

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:49am PDT

haha yeah for real

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:41am PDT

animaniacs or soemthing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:40am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

also, while it's fun, it looks more like a logo for a goofy kids cartoon than a our comic

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:33am PDT

yeah that's my concern too, the difference in styles

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:29am PDT

but you are welcome to try

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:27am PDT

I think it'll clash a bit with my art

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:26am PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:24am PDT

do ya think it's good enough to test it out on a cover or too wonky?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

so 90's

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 1:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:24am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

ehmmm

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:23am PDT

i like how you really got in there and made the exploding cat into the focus of it

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:09am PDT

GOT POUNDER WIDE OPEN

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

i think GOT POUNDED works better

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

okay cool I'm in class right now but I'm trying to thumbnail a bit

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

trying to decide between WIDE OPEN or GOT POUNDED for the title

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

i started working on #4

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:06am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:05am PDT

cool, i forget if we talked about it much by family's from there so i know the area pretty well

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

yes it would! I'd like to see some of philly

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:04am PDT

but if we continue to have a relationship with them, that might a cool show for both of us

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

it's next June (SOOOOOOOOOO far away)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

that first part is kinda dick-y

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:03am PDT

i bring it up because one of the conventions is Philadelphia

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

we can get cheap table space with them if we want to sell our books OR just show up and chill with them at the show for free

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

booya

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:02am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

apparently Action Lab is going to have a massive booth at all Wizard conventions from now on?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:01am PDT

nah but probably not for that reason

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

i'd imagine not since you're in europe

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 8, 2015 at 12:00am PDT

did you get that email about Wizard conventions from Vito?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

hehehehe ye I know your work

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

yup but the idea is good

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:56pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:48pm PDT

I can see that. it's fine. a bit on the rough side but it looks fine

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

mostly Aquaman and Creeper

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

i looked up a bunch of comics from the summer of 1968 and i sketched out something that reminded me of a few crazy fonts

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

do you like where i'm going with it?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:25pm PDT

here's what i've got so far.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

yeah the Hellcats thing is cool. i tried my own version of it but that style didn't translate well to the letters in Cougar.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:24pm PDT

hahahaha great page!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:13pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, September 7, 2015 at 11:01pm PDT

I like the hellcats logo I was also thinking on doing a wobbly line thing

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 10:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, September 7, 2015 at 10:08pm PDT

working on a thing... might suck, might be cool. won't really know til it's done

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

we have almost no chance

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

i'm down with a designy thing!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

no we don't really

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

not oscars, i mean just awards and stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

or maybe we have a long way to go before that kind of thing!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

they're talking about the oscars and it makes me wonder if we even have a shot at stuff like that

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

i'm listening to this audiobook about dreamworks and they

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

I wanna do a designy thing :P

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

do you think Holy F*ck / F*cked will get any awards or make any best of lists?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

yea it figure something out

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

but i would be fine with something else too. i want you to be totally jazzed about whatever we end up doing!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

as do I

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

i'm open to anything! i certainly don't think it's a bad thing to homage -- i like the characters and i like the artist :D

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

and If we homage it should probably be something else

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

neither do I but I don't want to feel like thats all we can do

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

but i definitely get why you'd want to do something different.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

i certainly don't think the homage would detract from our pitch!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

i understand.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

don't feel like doing the homage thing since we just did that on F*cked

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

lemme see what I can do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

mhh ye

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

well you know i'm totally cool with that layout! though i really think we ought to credit it as an homage considering the character positions are so distinctive! i'm not a fan of swiping without credit. swiping with credit? i'm all for it.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

I like the 3rd becuase it's a better version of the first

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

nah I'll just all out steal it

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

so what's your favorite layout

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

hehehehe cool. well i'm totally fine with doing it as an homage if you want.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

I can't take 100% of the credits

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

Caption: Look out crime... the heat is on!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

Cub: I'm dripping wet!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

Cougar: :Justice makes me hot!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 7:59am PDT

What if her fists were bloody on that 3rd one, would that be cool too?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

And it's perfect for them to talk, too.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

I love them all but I think you REALLY outdid yourself with the layout on the 3rd one! The positions are just so fucking cool!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, September 4, 2015 at 1:20am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, September 4, 2015 at 12:11am PDT

Bleeding Cool should have us included in at least one article next week.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 5:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 5:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

I'm putting away my computer

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

tagline: "This Cougar is HOT for crime!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

biting her underlip

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

just a sweaty close-up

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

could also be good for sweaty stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

"I just can't get enough... JUSTICE!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

another dialogue idea

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

cooo

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

I hope :)

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

I'll doodle up some things in the morning

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

thats pretty good also

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

tagline: "On the prowl for action!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

and Cub is running behind her with a thought bubble, that says "I wish!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

Cougar is racing towards is, yelling "I'm coming!!!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

AHHHH!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

there's a scream off in the distance

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

it's like a version of the scene from the book on the roof

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

and an action cover

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

it could sorta be a cross between a romance cover

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

but

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

okay, this one is a bit more...

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

"...for pounding crime!"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

"These heroes have a passion..."

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

or some kind of corny response like that

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Cougar: "Justice makes me hot!" Cub: "You can say that again!"

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

cougar and cub could be talking to each other

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

for the sweaty one

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

yah gime sec

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

lemme see

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

drew

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

but i also draw a mock cover idea

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

it'll like 90x cooler that way because it'll totally match the book!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

and it should be drawn into the art for cover

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

i was also thinking you should fucking draw the logo

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

so along with some hand drawn SFX

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

sweaty is awesome! i have a great tagline for that

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

they look so good and make the story so much better

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I was thinking about sweaty faces

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

all of your sound effects are fucking incredible

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

second

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

it's just so amazing

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

like Cougar beating that guy up

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

my favorite pages are the ones where you do awesome gross kinda detailed stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

first

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

okay so i had a bunch of thoguhts

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

ahahaha super dracula!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:38pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

get my best ideas there

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hmmmm not a bad idea! i'm gonna get a shower

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

romance comics?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

maybe a talky cover since we both like those?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

yep, just photoshop a logo onto that photo and WE'RE DONE!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

mye

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

maybe they could be in a classic superhero pose that's also sorta sexual

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

yeppers

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

gotta do a cover for the pitch right?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

heh heh yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

it's super well drawn

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

hahahaha! PERFECT!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

doing research for ONS

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

nice! I hope they turn out awesomely

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

the prints should get here today

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

sell

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

oh well hopefully i'll see a shit ton of them at comikaze, the la convention over halloween weekend

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

hahaha i just realized we have a halloween variant for a comic that's coming out almost two months before halloween.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:07am PDT

yeahz

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i figured it was YouTube and Google being annoyign

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

when you told me not to share it and when she said she saw it there

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i figured

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

it's like an automatic thing becuase they are connected

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

like 5 people use that

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i mean, it's Google+

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

no biggie, though

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

whoops fuck

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

ah

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

just in case you didn't know

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

hey stique let me know that it posted to Google+

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

boner

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

maybe when I cut out the bogus credits but I'm happy you like it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

but i can do it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

it'll be difficult, like concealing a boner while walking

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

okay ... i will wait...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

nah not right now

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

can i share it?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

I LOVE IT!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

had to run to the office! watching now :D

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

making this video is partially why I have been so absent this week

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

the credits at the end are incorrect I did everything but had to pretend I had help from classmates

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVHZ6P9pcpo

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

sometimes i forget how much people care about that media adaptation stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

I dream of electric sheep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

if it happens, it happens. but making a 3 comic books and then dreaming of a TV show or a movie just seems insane to me.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

to me, that is

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

it's all so silly.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

there is probably a larger sentiment attached to that, wich we don't care about

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

hahahaha! actually, yeah, that would be it.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

havin holy f*ck on adult swim

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

ehmmm

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

i guess we don't give a fuck about something... though i dunno what that is

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:33am PDT

and then writers like James and DeWayne care about their stories, but they don't know when their shit is coming out online or how the company even works

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

they all have their weird quircks

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

and like Jason cares enough to go to all of these shows but not to make sure he's putting out the Danger Zone books on time

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

but not enough to write press releases that aren't full of typos and wrong info

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

like Jamal clearly gives a fuck about appearing a certain way

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

it's weird to me cause they each give a fuck about random things but not everything

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

they just don't give a fuck

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

boggles my mind

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

most creators don't care that much

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

fuck... the company didn't even know their online solicits were fucked up...

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

so i can understand why Kevin wouldn't tell anyone...

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

like they don't even try to find out

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

is that most people who publish with Action Lab don't even know when their own books are hitting comixology

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

the thing that cracks me up about it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

classic Action Lab!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

ugh bullshit

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

we have a special comixology email address that i can contact

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

at which point, if we're not on there, i'll email both kevin AND comixology

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

it might be. i won't know for sure until monday, though, when they put out their release schedule for the week

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

it might be automated

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

which i strongly doubt

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

he said he thinks that comiXology will just look at the schedule and bump up our release

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

ohkay

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

okay what did he say?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

apparently everything is day and date now?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

oh so Kevin got back to me about the comixology stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

good

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I'M ON ITTTTT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

niiiiiiice

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

sure

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

you want me to do that?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

as for flatting

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

so i'm gonna get cranking on the written stuff for it

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

ditto

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

yeah! I think we have a fair-ish chance

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

i'm super stoked about this shadowline thing too

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

lettering the first one was a slog for me but getting through was like me lifting the barbell so i'm more into now than ever!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

hmmmm no i'm enjoying it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

not right now, whaddabout you?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

is there anything we could do to make it even more fun for you?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

there is allot of interesting stuff in there and the style is fun

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

it's allot of fun!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

in general, how are you enjoying Cougar and Cub?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

i would be totally fine if it stayed exactly the way it is. just wondering if there's a way you could even kick it up another notch!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

just a thought

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

yeah s'all good!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

don't know how to do it right now tough

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

i think it's funny the way it is now, but i'm wondering if it could be super emotional too!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

one question though... think there's a way to make the panel where Cub slashes the punching bag even more dramatic?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

we'll see how it goes when I ink it!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

everything is looking solid.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

it was allright

Nick MarinoThursday, September 3, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

the 12 panels came out really awesome!!!!!!! how'd you like the experience?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 7:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 6:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, September 3, 2015 at 12:10am PDT

ehm well see in your morning

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Do you want me to flat anything?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

Okay, I'm heading to bed. Talk more in the morning!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

But other than that I don't have any ideas at the moment!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:51pm PDT

I figure it should imply the sex or at the very least suggest some sexual tension.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:50pm PDT

What do you think we should do for a cover?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:50pm PDT

So, yeah, Shadowline stuff. GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:49pm PDT

HAHAHA YES!!!! I love this page of Ezzie dragging Minerva. So funny. You totally nailed it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:17pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 11:14pm PDT

cool lets do that then!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

Fucked up superheroes is Shadowline's bread and butter, so I think this could definitely work for us.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

They didn't give a submission deadline, so my guess is that they're looking for a certain number of projects and then they'll close things up?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:31pm PDT

And then cover letter and synopsis.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

They want the first five pages fully complete as well as a cover with logo.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:27pm PDT

The submission guidelines are mad easy too.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:26pm PDT

Jim Valentino's Image Comics imprint

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:26pm PDT

http://shadowlinecomics.tumblr.com/post/128209573115/submissions-are-now-open

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 10:26pm PDT

this would be REALLY good for Cougar and Cub

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

ON THE SOULS OF MY ENEMIES

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

tomorrow i feast

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

tomorrow I fix

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 9:45am PDT

thank YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

in Panel 3, could we flip Meowz and lower him just a lil bit? that way his left hand is holding up the note in the outside corner instead. i'd rather letter his dialogue above his head in that blank space rather than under his arm. i hate talking armpits! also, this way, the blank space above him will be on the inside of the page and guide the eye better

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

i have a request for Page 4

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

i like how sloppy minerva is when she's crying

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

LOOKING GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 7:23am PDT

two thumbnail pages!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

hehehe I'm in school now

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

i might be back

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 2, 2015 at 12:18am PDT

going to bed, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:43pm PDT

hehehe ye whatever works right

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

it's funny to see the companies that have like 10 covers for every comic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:42pm PDT

probably dynamite is weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

rather than something they'll keep doing

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

but i think that was more like a favor to Garth Ennis

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

Dynamite would be cool, especially since they did The Boys

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

but they're all serious and stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

i would love to work with Avatar because everyone knows their shit is fucked up

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:41pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:40pm PDT

i guess our best options look like Action Lab, Boom, and Image

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

they hardly have monthlies

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

almost boutique

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

very small

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

i didn't realize their output was so small

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

it's interesting to see how few books Oni puts out

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:39pm PDT

allot of them are friends hirering mexican dudes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

more like 5

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

but the shitty thing is that less than 10 of them are good options...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

oh ye it's crazy

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

there are so many companies

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:38pm PDT

i went through the previews catalog to figure out who's publishing creator-owned books right now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:36pm PDT

GOOD

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

well the good news it won't be an issue ever again because that's the only time he wears the costume

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

thats allright

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:35pm PDT

MY BAD

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

ohhhhh right!! yeah, understood

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:34pm PDT

getting the right angles and I forgot that billy= Meowz

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

what was tricky for you on page 3?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

no I'm hip to it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

but now I know so it's cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:33pm PDT

basically, if it says MEOWZ for the dialogue, that means he's wearing the Meowz costume

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

I had to re-do page 3, 3 times :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

SORRY!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

yes it confused me for a while in this script

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:32pm PDT

did you notice how the script is all weird about that? i the descriptions i always call him Billy but it says Meowz for the dialogue

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

errrr Meowz, i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

but i like it a month or so early

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

were they doing the digital first too early? YES! two months or more is a bit much

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:30pm PDT

yeah it was a good way to build hype

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

I liked the digital first thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:29pm PDT

sounds like a good plan

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

i asked him if he could change it to Sept 9 yesterday. no reply yet. i'll reach out to him again later tomorrow if i still haven't heard anything.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

apparently they stopped doing digital first but never told anyone?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 11:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 9:25am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

it's hard to choose!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

i think it really comes down to "our best sequence"

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

i'm still down with that if you are.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:53am PDT

i think the last thing we settled on was picking out the best sequence from our first issue and coloring it for the pitch.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

ideas?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 1, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

so, yeah, the Cougar pitch...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:27am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:27am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:26am PDT

I know the example has waaaay less text but ye

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:25am PDT

If you try to keep most of it on the bottom I think that is fine

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

well, i can... but it'll cover up a lot of the art

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

can you make it feel like the opening page

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:24am PDT

as for the caption

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

it a fine language but the teacher was only semi fluent

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

ENGLISH IS A SILLY LANGUAGE

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

any suggestions for the captions? i'm out of good ideas right now.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:23am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:19am PDT

yeah i'm not 100% happy with them in the final panel

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:19am PDT

I might have made the captions in the final panel a bit more extravagant but it's also good this way

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:18am PDT

the brain lettering

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:18am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

i was able to find a lettering style that matches it well

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

#2 is so much better tough

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

i'll add a gradient to the captions in the colored version. but i figure they're better off just white in this no color version.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:10am PDT

looks sooo good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 31, 2015 at 2:09am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

he is!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i get sort of upset when i look at Nick Bradshaw art because he's just trying to be Art Adams

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

hahaha Adams LOVES Storm cheesecake

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

sweet

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

i think art did the first 25 covers of this: http://www.comics.org/series/3176/covers/

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

but he inspired those dudes so much

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

or rather, liefeld wished he was Art Adams!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

yeah it is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

that storm is almost leifeld esque

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

them hairy arms

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

also not enough hours in a day :P

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

manga is so nuts

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I also wan't to do a Manga type thing probably for the web but I'm not good at decompressed story telling

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I would get so bored

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

i can't even imagine what it's like for Adams... just working on the same character all day, i bet

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

i KNOW!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

hahaha the sfx

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

Yukito Kishiro is also awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

whoops

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

but I'm lazy

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

I sometimes wish I could draw like that

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

similar style but an even better storyteller!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Yukito Kishiro is like the Art Adams of manga to me

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

hehehehe I understand

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

when i first got the internet, i used to spend hours searching for Art Adams sketches and saving them to my comp. i had this massive folder i used to look through like every day!!! hahaha i was REALLY into his stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

I've seen em

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

i was really into trading cards as a kid, and Art did the best ones for Marvel Series II. totally worth looking up.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

I remember that

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I understand why he is slow

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

the thing he was most famous for when i was young was The New Fantastic Four

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

he's slow, so he only did annuals and minis

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

his 80s stuff is kinda hard to follow, if i remember right.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

I'm not sure I have ever read any to be honest

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

but Ultimate X had some pretty amazing storytelling

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

i always felt like Adam's stuff was perfect for single images but his paneling sucked

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

fucking crazy

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

could be yea I love those colors

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

so much texture in them

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

maybe other stuff too

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

they're marker, i think

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

Linda Medley's colors are so cool on it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

yes it is!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

it's so good

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

that is amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

oh wow

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

yeah i grew up with Adams. his style was sorta quintessential X-Men when i was into them. i had this poster on my wall from 10-20.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

I feel the same

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

but i still like it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

what the fuck is going on with Toad?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

why are Storm's boobs so enormous?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

I only started to like art adams recently

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

why are Rogue and Storm looking at us?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

it should be bad but it isn't

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

hahahah!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

yes and no

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

which means it's still better than 75% of everything else

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

that's some of the worst Art Adams art i've ever seen

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

hahaha yeah!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:09pm PDT

but whatever more chances for us

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

a level of rejection he's comfortable with and then a level he's not, so he doesn't test it

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

he has a level of work he's comfortable doing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

I got the same idea

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

he reminds me a lot of people i've met on my way to where i am now... shawn especially

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

i asked him about pitching to Image and he was like "i dunno... not sure that i'm ready for it..."

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:06pm PDT

i guess i get that impression because he doesn't seem interesting in growing beyond where he is

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

I think there is a huge chance that will happen

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

is that he'll just keep doing ZT because its his claim to fame and he won't actually diversify

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

my worry for him (not like an actual worry but a stumbling block, i guess)

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

I know

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

he has some awesome story ideas

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

hahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

hopefully he'll do something I can share sometime :)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:03pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

ye he's a nice dude

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

i always feel torn up about it even when it's not a big deal

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

i just hate turning down friends

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

whaddever we're not doing it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

neither do I but ehm

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:59pm PDT

hahaha i'm the opposite where i feel whatever about the contest but i'm not into mixing! i just don't feel okay repping zombie tramp to my friends

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

he has like 500

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

I'm not into the contest idea but I don't feel strongly about not mixing

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

but we only have like 20 fans

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

i think maybe Dan's thing is that he thinks i can get more people to submit to it?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

i dunno i have mixed feelings

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

as for the contest

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hahahahaha great

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

with 2000? ffttt. good luck!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

people had a hard enough time finding HF even with 4000

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

I know

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

at least in terms of orders

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

well it's too late, honestly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

but we might sell a book or two

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

I understand neither do I

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

but i just don't need to see giant fake zombie boobs on feed for the next two months.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

mja I think it's to big

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

i think it could be fun

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I don't like the idea

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

so i told him my schedule sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

eh

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

cool idea, but i really don't want to mix the properties

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

he wanted to do one where people did stuff for both of our comics and thenwe judged them on what we liked about em

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

he recently did this contest for zombie tramp, people making videos and shit to win comics

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

what is the idea?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

hehehe goodluck :3

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

i polite figured out a way to say no :D

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

wanting to do a Zombie Tramp / Holy F*ck contest

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

spank is a funny word

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

would you do it smaller than normal dialouge?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

I like the randomness

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

like "I'd like a pound of saussage"

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

like pounds of some food item?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

not sure what you mean

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

what do you get in pounds?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

that one is pretty good

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hehehe not bad

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

tasting out hehehe

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

i've been tasting them out... nothing is wowing me yet.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

these are all okay but it needs more funny

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

"Yes pounding words into wrestlers"

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

"I like pounding."

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

"I like words"

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

"Pounding sounds fun."

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

or

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

"Pounding is fun."

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

i know!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

oh

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

but "I like wrestling" seems a little tame

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

but then i thought it might be funny if he says something about wrestling

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

he should comment on one of the bold words

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

one of the bold words...

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

or just that he doesn't care very much

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

yeah, agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

mhhh something that shows he isn't listening

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

ideas?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

i think this panel needs a little comment by cub

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

can't wait to see it and read it :)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

i knew your art would pair perfectly with the over-the-top dialogue, but seeing it come together like this is really incredible.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

thanks man! I'm happy you like it

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

it's so fucking good

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

I think

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

hahaha ONS is my most detailed work yet

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

So awesome.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

Also, by far, my favorite thing about lettering is that I get to spend so much time staring at your art!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

I can't wait to read the rest. So good. I love the way you've made it funny too.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 8:48am PDT

20 translated pages! I decided I wanted to letter the comic differently at page16 so I'll have to go back and re-do some of the pages

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 4:05am PDT

cewl the font's I used were kinda random, they just had to work for the sketch

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:42am PDT

the title page came out pretty bitching, i think. i basically just followed your design (switch up a couple fonts, though)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:41am PDT

i'm just combining balloons and placing tails. everything else is done.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:41am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 30, 2015 at 1:34am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

sure

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

since steps 2 and 3 have similar positions, maybe putting the leaping one (step 1) in issue 3?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

reverse

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

OR

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

i was thinking that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

nah guess doing it in the correct sequence would be best

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

i think so

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

mhh a little less? do you understand what I'm going for?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

try with the colors and give the line an opacity of... 90%?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

the purple looks a bit weird with the strong black and yellow

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

would you rather i go for something different? of just use the line art?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

s'all good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

sure I have no strong opinion to be honest

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

how do you like this for an inside front cover style?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

YEAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 28, 2015 at 1:09am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

it's pretty fun. also, gave Roach a random southern accent haha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:26am PDT

i guess i'm still trying to get a handle on my style for this story. doing a lot of bolded words for emphasis.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 28, 2015 at 12:25am PDT

i ended up doing some rewriting, so i'm still not done

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:21pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

they don't just have them sitting out.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

gotta use this really specific envelope that they have there. and you have to ask for it.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

i finally figured out the right way to send you stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

so did the same neighbor do this over xmas?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

okay good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

nah we don't but our neighbour has to pay

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:15pm PDT

nope just like during our christmas break when the same thing happened our friend watching our home found out

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:14pm PDT

do you have renter's insurance? here in the states most apartment owners force you to get it.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:13pm PDT

oh okay i thought you got home and just realized this happened!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:11pm PDT

our bed and maybe our couch we'll see were flying back today

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:11pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:11pm PDT

OMG holy shit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 11:10pm PDT

my upstairs niegbour left their tap on so my apartment got flooded

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 4:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

all about the biznast tomorrow

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

for real though

Nick MarinoThursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:15am PDT

i got nothing done today!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 3:15pm PDT

maybe manga style with the soundeffects in dutch but then an asterisk translating it at the bottom?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 3:14pm PDT

HAHAHA SHIIIIIIIIIT that will not be easy!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

how the hell am I gonna translate this :(

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

ugh just realised I did some typography things...

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

translating is boring tough

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

I've been translating the comic about my brother

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

:D

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

thank you for the tip!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

32 pages is usually the minimum pages you need to print a thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

ya know, i think ONI has open submissions again in the fall or winter

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

ye the thing is 3 issue mini is easy to do something with

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

sooooooooooooooo

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

granted that's a toy tie-in

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

like they do for vamplets

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

even like a small hardcover

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

i think any format could rock for this story

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

and i think she could explain things to you well in conversation

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

i think skyping it out will help because there are probably a lot of things stique can ask you that she can't do easily through an email

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

hahahahahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

what im talking about

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

it might

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

ireally

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

not even, reall

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

this is gonna sound crazy, but... after reading it, i almost feel like each act gets longer

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

but in a format were you read it in one sitting, much like a short story. I think it'll feel right

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

but I think the ending might be a bit frustrating in that format

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

oh I also think any length could work, we we're aiming for a 3 issue thing maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

ye she had the idea of having 3 art styles I personally was thinking of just making every act lighter

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

i think any length of story could work

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

and the third one seems ripe for action and switching up art a bit

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

while the second one is awesome for character developement

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

except it seems to me like the first act is a great chance to play with shadows and mood

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

I mailed her about skypin

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

no new thoughts really

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

BACK!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

anyway, i'll be back in 5

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

good idea

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

she takes it further than I do

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

is that you two should Skype about it

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

oh my suggestion

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

laundry

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

anyway

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

i like the tiers

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

more professional

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

it's a good structure, though

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

as you know, it VERY unlike how i work

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

oh that's cool!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

it's similar to how I write for myself

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

so i'm gonna think about it while i do that

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

i gotta move some laundry over

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

so i still need a few mins to process everything

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

it's good tough

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

the format of the outline, i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

the format is a bit foreign to me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

yes it is

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

very interesting, rich stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

it's intense!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:11am PDT

Mmmmmm it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

reading

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

i'll read it it in 10 mins after im done reblogging

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

right now I'm thinking of proposing turning it into a 32 page story and figuring out what to do with it after

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

okay cool I like it but I'm a tiny bit worried about that the ending might feel unsatisfying and I wondered if you had taughts about that

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

it was a few weeks ago

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

well, she read it to me

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

i read her story tree

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

i havent read whatever she just sent you

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

you read stiques outline right?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

I have a meowz design but I might keep it a suprise

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

not judgin just askin

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

don't judge

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

don

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

i need to unwind

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

making comics and skateboarding to get groceries make my life REALLY stressful

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

picked up smoking?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

nice

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

PAIR OF EYES

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

nice pair ya got there

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

I'm a lady

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

hehehehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

not sure what you mean by pop art show exactly. i thought it was a pretty straight forward comic book art gallery exhibition. all framed pages hanging on the walls. some famous stuff, some more obscure.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:02am PDT

but it's awesome that you enjoyed yourself

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

it almost looks like a pop-art show

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:44am PDT

Joe Sinnott's inks on Fantastic Four were so tight and those pages REALLY popped. Then just looked... I dunno, really fucking good.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

Mike Royer's look good on the printed page, but in person I didn't find them as profound.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

Vinnie Colletta is normally panned by comic book scholars for his treatment of Kirby's art, but his inks were terrific in person.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:43am PDT

BUT getting to see the different inking styles up close was a real treat. You can see the nuance and choices very clearly.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:42am PDT

I flipped through so many pages of original art at conventions and it felt kinda similar to that. Also, these pages are so infamous that I've already seen most of them by now.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

Mostly I found it interesting to read the notes in the margins and see the different inking styles up close.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

Kirby exhibit was good.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

FUCK YEAH!!!! That rules :D

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 5:23am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

how'd you like the jack kirby thing?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 11:23pm PDT

NICE!!!!!!!!! I love it!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

k ttyfn

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

ofcourse no hurry

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

kirby time! but i'm sure she can get it over to you later

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

we're about to head out for today

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

i'll ask for it right away :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

i think it'll get you inspired

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

today

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

she said she'd be glad to send it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

YES!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

I'll do that soon

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

ye I should ask for it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

it's really good

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

but then i realized you may not have seen how stique outlined it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

well my suggestion was to try drawing a pinup / single image from each of the three acts

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

ye but depending on your suggestion it's not necessary yet.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

would you be interested in that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

but then i realized you haven't read the full outline yet!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:49am PDT

something

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

i was gonna suggest

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

that's cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

right now I think i'm just gonna draw something that might be a panel

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

ofcourse!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

anyway, i'd be glad to make a suggestion if you'd interested

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

i sent you a bunch of messages but they failed?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

foood

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

I'll figure it out

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

that's tough!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

we haven't gotten there yet I just want to make some pin-ups or whatver but I can't get it of the ground

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

is it the paneling and layouts you're unsure about? or something else?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

oh yeah saw these! love em

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

these are the only digital once I have

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

do you have any sketches?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

the story needs a more horror approach which I love but never quite nailed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

oh it hasn't really moved in a couple of weeks

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

how so? i'm familiar with the story, of course, but i haven't spoken with either of you about it in a couple of weeks.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

or what I visualise in my head is just out of reach

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

it's a different part of my brain

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:54am PDT

why do you think that is>?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

I can't quite get the right angle on Stiques story art wise

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:19am PDT

yeah, right

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

we'll find out soon enough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

oh well

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

i still have no idea if HF #1 is gonna be on comixology this week. no one tells me and comixology hasn't posted their list this week

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

nice.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:11am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:10am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9:09am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 11:49pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 3:58pm PDT

Freaq Squad.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 3:57pm PDT

Yep, I got REALLY into this X-Men parody idea REALLY fast.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

i just got reaaaaaaaaaally carried away with this idea. will send you stuff soon.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

OH BOY

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

for me as a reader, the thing that i loved about the X-Men is that they're basically a family who've chosen to be family rather than being born into it. well, other than the mutant thing.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

people like to say the X-Men are an allegory for prejudice. that's a meaty playground.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

i love the idea of making fun of the X-Men tropes, but i need that real emotional or intellectual hook to keep me going!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

so for me, the thing that hooked me about Cougar and Cub was the relationship and the fallout from it.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

yeah i'm down for it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

ehmm I would not be apposed to developing a 90's x-men 'parody' maybe it could be the thing that is kinda like HolyF*ck but not HolyF*ck that we could pitch to AL

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Dear Adlut Swim, Here is GIF example o animatino for a new Holy F*ck TV show on Adult Swim. I think you will fined that our comic strip is berfect for tour network's raunchy non-stop humor. Plz respond with contract. Sincerely , Danick Massarino

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

PERFECT! send it to Adult Swim

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

i dunno!!! i feel like the time is ripe for it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

what would that entail?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i mean, other than liefeld ironically parodying himself

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

has anyone done a good x-men parody yet?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

you know what we shoulda done? a fucking hardcore parody of that shitty 90s x-men show!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Holy F*ck should be an Adult Swim show!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

you know what?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

the new rick and morty is bangin!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

it was decent, pretty consistent with the other episodes. maybe even a bit stronger.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

I haven't seen much of that show

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

and going with 6, 7, 9, 10, and 11

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

i ended up cheating a little bit

Nick MarinoMonday, August 24, 2015 at 8:59am PDT

so the preview pages for #3 were tricky to pick out

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 24, 2015 at 12:44am PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

With that said, I don't hate the plot. So good ideas in there. And I like all of the neons.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

Batman & Robin is even worse than I remember it. Also, the name is just nonsensical.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

gonna east lunch. be back in 20.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

they're interested in expanding to other creators

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

makes me feel like we ought to find a way to pitch to Skybound

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

yeah it's pretty good

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

I'll read it tomorrow I think he talked about allot of this on his stuffsaid interview aswell

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

that is a long article

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

oh I don't feel like it's a big deal or anything that it didn't make much but it just makes me 'wonder' ya know

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:30am PDT

http://www.fastcompany.com/3048636/dead-ahead

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:04am PDT

i think a number of things could've helped us make a small profit instead of having a small loss. actually hitting the solicit dates (it's not like the book wasn't 100% complete waaaay early), more consistent promotion from the company (we weren't even listed on their website until i updated it myself in February), and better retailer outreach (i probably contacted more retailers than anyone at the company). but i also don't fault them for not doing more... they took a big chance on us!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 1:00am PDT

with that said, i'm not faulting them for it. it's not like anyone running the company is getting rich off of this. or paid much at all, really.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 23, 2015 at 12:59am PDT

i think it's Action Lab's heavy handed accounting system. i think EVERYTHING gets charged to our account and probably at a slight mark up.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

could we have earned money if the series was longer? or is it just the bad trade sales that fucked us?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

but thats mostly due to the loss in Q1

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

the book ended up losing 367.74

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

lookin at the Q2 numbers

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

whuuuuuuuu

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

yep, i'm definitely out of sketchbooks. that means i have to draw it on... REGULAR PAPER *dum dum dum*!!! NOOOOOOooooooo!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

what is it?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

hahaha NICE

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

yeah it all depends on how inspired i get

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

hmmmm i wonder what i could hang them on?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

the good thing is that i have enough space between shows that i can order more depending on sales at the first con

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

can you pin em on hang em on something?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

do wahhhdever you want

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

I'm lettering right, but taking a break to do a little New Apostles promo

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

I think the copy and paste on this page works really well! I just read the script while looking at it and I really like the flow of the panels. It's all gravy, baby!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

I'm halfway done page 21 but I don't expect to finish it today

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

I hope the copy paste stuff doesn't make it look to silly

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 8:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 22, 2015 at 3:03am PDT

derp

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 2:52pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

oddly fuckedup

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

ye it's quite fucked up and odd

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

honestly, i noticed this problem last month too. but it was for the puppet master books only, i think. i guess i shoulda said something... but it's like c'mon if they gave a shit the company and the creators would be looking into it themselves.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

that sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

ugh annoying

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT

so after no hearing back from Jason and Kevin for almost two days about contacting Diamond to fix the Action Lab pages on the Previews website, i emailed Dave yesterday (which i shoulda done in the first place) and hopefully our cover will be up soon! still not there though.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

i'll go through the books and try to find some cool shots to pull out. i could always just use the three skating shots of Jesus from the first page, too. like one in each issue

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

spanx.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 20, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 20, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 20, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 20, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

speaking of which, i hope that editor fucking contacts us!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

yes I'm cool with whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

if we don't hear a word back, i'm okay with waiting to talk with another publisher about it in the future

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

ye we'll see

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

i'm not inclined to push it with them, though

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

not sure what to expect... might go well, might not even get a response

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I trusts you

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

it's pretty simple, not that interesting but i thought you might like to know what the email said

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

ittibitty bunnyies cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

but first

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

visually

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

on a schale of Holy F*ck and ONS I have no clue how I would want to an ALF comic yet

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

looks good to me

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

hehehe I can imagine that

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

so yeah if this looks good to you, i actually think i can send it off today

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

it's safe to say that's the exact opposite of what i'd like to do

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

hahahahaha! that 90s Marvel book was so bad

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

look how tall he is

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

yesh that goes a long way

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

that way your name is on there AND it's clear that these are just a test

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:48am PDT

i added some text to your ALF image along the lines of what i suggested

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

no real significant changes

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

I finished my ALF edits

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

No reason to draw more crowds if you fucking don't need to.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

PERFECTO!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

I thought all of the fans walked about on the next page. But that doesn't happen for another two pages, so there's plenty of time to still show the group of cosplayers.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

That probably won't be an issue.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

Oh but ya know what?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

My only concern (and i'm sure you're gonna hate me for this) is that it looks so empty!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

The other page looks awesome too!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

I love love love love love it!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

FUCK YEAH DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

my plan right now is to go tweak this proposal, send you a link to the updated version, get your approval, and then send Bryan and Dave an email tomorrow morning

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

I'm of for poop poop time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

cool well i appreciate your flexibility

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

still I want to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

I agree I just wanted to say this upfront so you know

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

if we encounter that, i say we worry about it at the time and work out the best solution possible. but personally i don't want to present them with that option! i'd rather present it as an all or nothing kind of proposal.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

well thanks for saying but frankly that wasn't even something i considered!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

doesn't

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

if it ever even comes up, and let's assume it doen't

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

we shouldn't put it in their head but I don't want to be the reason you don't get to do ALF

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

alright, i see what you're saying. my take on it was that it's us or it's nothing.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:16am PDT

100%

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

I really really want to do this with you

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

I'm just saying if at any point they are like :"Okay we're doing it, but with another artist" I don't want you to give it up for my sake

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

i guess i'm a bit confused

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

okay, wait, so you're saying you're cool with not doing it?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

and without us even having interest in it, it wouldn't have the chance to happen

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

yes I know

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

but we're bringing this to them

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

I'd Love to do it

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

not that i'm necessarily expecting them to be ethical about things...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

that said it's totally cool with me if they don't want me

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

but that's where our guarantee for the primary creative team comes in

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

hey, i guess anything is possible

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

boring?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

usual style?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

a more????

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

I think Brian might push for a more ehm....

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

I do think there is a fair chance that they might like you but not me...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

ye maybe try to make a 6 page story or something

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

that way we have something to show Paul Fusco when we get in touch with him

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

so if ALE likes this idea, my suggestion is that you and i do a few pages

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

cool, i'm glad you're down with those

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:10am PDT

yesh also makes sense

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

and 2. if for some reason the ALF stuff just doesn't work out at Action Lab, you and i have the freedom to take our ALF pitch to another publisher

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:09am PDT

ye makes sense

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

basically, in the event that they secure an ALF license, we won't get pushed out

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

1. if ALF ends up at ALE, you and i will be the primary creative team for the first six issues

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

1

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

okay, the two thigns

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

derp

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

hehehe (ALF at ALE)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

two things i want to ask for from ALE

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

anyway, for ALF

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:07am PDT

ooops i forgot ALD is our original character... Alien Life Dick

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

ALF

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

so for ALD

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

the Dick verse keeps expanding

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

our newest character. he understands everything.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

Understandabilly!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

understandibly

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

i prefer it to be a little closer to the release date

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

which i think is good

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:30am PDT

Holy F*cked #1 will NOT be on comixology this week

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

the Sept solicits will be online either this week or next week

Nick MarinoMonday, August 17, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 17, 2015 at 3:00am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 6:57pm PDT

ALF proposal DONEEEEE

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 3:44pm PDT

I'll probably read it in the morning

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

hehehe cool

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

So there are 3 splashes, 6 pages with 6 panels, 6 pages with 5 panels, 6 pages with 4 panels, and 1 pages with 12 panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Each villain page has 4 panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Each Billy page has 5 panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

Each Minerva page has 6 panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

With the exception of a few splash pages (and 12 panels on page 12), there's a system to the panel layouts.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

SCRIPT IS DONE! I just shared it with you.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

I'm halfway through proofreading the script. Will be sending it to you very soon!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

You can always use colors to give it some more density if you want. But I think the line work is wonderful.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

It's fucking wonderfully, actually :D

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Second, I think the top half of the double page spread is definitely dense enough!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 16, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

K, first off, LOVE LOVE LOVE that page!!!!!!!!!!! The characters on there are fantastic.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

should I make it denser?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 4:57am PDT

I actually kind of hate this page but whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 16, 2015 at 3:04am PDT

whuuuuttt

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 11:10pm PDT

WUT WUT SCRIPT DONE!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 3:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:41pm PDT

I understand wish I were more usefull :3

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:38pm PDT

i just don't own a scale and have no idea where to weigh these things!

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

it's no problem!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

Daniel: increasing your workload since 2013

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

well i'll figure it out

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

I'm surprised I found it

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

out of batteries

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

ehmmm lemme check if I have a scale

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

do you have a scale where you're at? and a copy of the TPB?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

okay, weird question...

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

okay sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

okay lets say 10 but if for some reason there is like a weight-price treshold somewhere between 5 and 10, less then 10 is also fine

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

you just name the number and i'll figure out how to ship 'em!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

*shrug*

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

what options do you have

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

ye I get that

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

i care less about the # of trades and more about figuring out the best way to ship them

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

5 or 10 hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

ehmmmm

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

as many as you want

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

okay how many can you spare?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

i do need to know how many you want, though :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

already have a massive 100000000 shipment planned

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

hmmmmm too late

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:17pm PDT

don't send me 1000000000 copies

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

sweet ehm I don't expect to sell a ton of 'em sooowwww

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

if i mail them out this week, i think they' should make it in time

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

right, yeah, i remember that

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

F*ck*

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

I got a signing at my LCS the 13th of september but I only have 3 copies of Holy F*cked

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

hahaha i'm totally stealing a Holy F*ck plot device for this scene in Cougar and Cub

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

oh ye fuck ehmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

hehe same

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

yeah i'm super excited about everything i'm working on! just not exciting about working hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

even tough I'm excited about this story and the stique thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

but I've been generally unmotivated since I came here

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:04pm PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

I wanted to go around the 20th but amanda still had work and didn't feel like leaving her for a week or whatever again

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

the 28th

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

when do you head back to arnhem?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

I understand I feel the same

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

i think i pretty much got it figured out now, though, so it should be heading your way soon. but i've been kinda unmotivated the past few weeks so i'm just trying to kickstart that in general.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:59pm PDT

thats cool #2 is comming along slower on the art side then #1 did anyways

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

I'm still slogging through the #3 script. it's intense!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

thanks! happy you likey

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

That cosplayer on the bottom right is amazing.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!! LOVE THIS PAGE!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 15, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

today is a weird day

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

yep this is late for you!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:49pm PDT

I'm gonna sleep soon

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:48pm PDT

k well i gotta go run some errands

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:43pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:42pm PDT

Yeah, for sure. It's finding that fine line between drawing her as an homage to those sand and sandals warrior women... but also not making her sexually exploitative.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:41pm PDT

I think my biggest concern was drawing vixen :3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:40pm PDT

the cartoonist story is good!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:37pm PDT

cooool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

he might have also done the inside art

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:36pm PDT

I happend to like the dude that atleast did the variant

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

i didn't even know about Ball Fondlers

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

yeah i'm pretty out of the loop

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

I don't know much about anthologies

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:35pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

are there other anthologies to consider?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

what about maybe... less prestigious stuff? not that i want to set the bar low or anything, but -some stuff that's more do-able?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

I'd have to re read them but I wonder if these two stories reflect us enough and/or are the best we could do

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:34pm PDT

yeah, me too

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:33pm PDT

I'd like to get into any of those

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:31pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:30pm PDT

The Cartoonist would be so good for that

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

or if we could somehow talk to Heavy Metal

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

it would work for Presents

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

it's not really Creepy or Eerie, i don't think

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:29pm PDT

The Cartoonist is also eight pages and scripted

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

not necessarily perfect for Creepy or Eerie but if we could somehow get into Dark Horse Presents...

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:28pm PDT

Bobek's Mad Dash is eight pages and scripted

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

I think atleast one might be scripted

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

yesh

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

The Cartoonist and that video game character thing

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:25pm PDT

we had two stories already formulated... actually, they might be totally scripted

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

I am well aware

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

that guy never responds to my emails but i'm also incredibly persistent and have very little shame

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

yes we should

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

should we try to pitch them on a short?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

so Dark Horse

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

hi

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:18pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

hehehe thanks

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

I love the crowd in that one!!! Has a very Sergio Argones feel to it. Super good.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

before it gets to sloppy

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

okay thats enough drawing for today

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

the crowd is not to great int his one

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

guess so ye

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

yeah, possibly... depends on the shipping and the quality, i guess!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

high profit margin and stuffs

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

thats good

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

they're pretty cheap... less than a buck a piece

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

probably fine

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

i was thinking 20 each

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:05pm PDT

hmmmm how many copies of these things should I get?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:04pm PDT

just learning about prints

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

suuuup

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 1:01pm PDT

baaaack

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:44pm PDT

brb

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

don't think so

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

did the man v rock guys sell prints?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i'm asking some peeps now

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

yeah, probably

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

staples

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

I have no clue man

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

sigh

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

i dunno where to even get them!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

oki doki whatver you think is best man

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

so making new art for prints is probably better for a year from now or so if the modest run sells well

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

and frankly i'm not gonna sell a ton of 'em

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

anything else is gonna be overkill, i bet

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

honestly, probably all i need is fireplace jesus and skateboard jesus

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

think*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

lemme thing about it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

but i do love your art so i would never say no to anything!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

mokay

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

add an extra thing

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

i don't think it's worth it just for a print

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

I could maybe do a new machine gun jezus

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

as do I

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

it's an amazing image but i gravitate more towards the funny or fucking weird stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

mokay

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

and i think he also suggested your machine gun Jesus from #1

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

good

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

oh yeah i'm not doing that

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

no

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Jerry's Jesus

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

Jerry that's his name

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

ummm

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

he said Kaylie's Jesus, your Skateboard Jesus...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

I know

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Dave Dwonch was the one who suggested i do it in the first place!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

dave?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

sure... anyone you can suggest?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

what they think

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

ask someone else also

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

ehm

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PDT

Aarons one would rock

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

sounds allright to me

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

i asked aaron but haven't heard from him yet

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:30pm PDT

probably kaylie's jesus, your skateboard jesus, your roller skate satan, and maybe this one?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

hahaha yep

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

thats why it's the cover

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

this is a great image

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

I don't know hoe well my art works out of the context of a comic

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

thats more than I would expect :P

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

but realistically i think we're talking about selling like 5 of them

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

it would be awesome as a contrast to the sexy lady prints

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

i'm looking at naked shower jesus...

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I'm not the right person to judge

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

neither do I

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

i never buy prints!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

but i dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

yeah that's another where i think a logo might be nice on it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

that might work... I think

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

the comic*

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

I think ye gotta have something that could also work if you don'r quite know they comic

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

you are the one selling it but I don't feel it's strong enough to sell

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

mhhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

maybe this with our logo in the top left

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

ye that would open up more options

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

i wish the New Apostles were out by the time i did these shows!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

a pop culture thingy?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

a satan thing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

hahahaha jesus dong from #1

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

what else?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

definitely skateboard jesus

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

kaylie said yes and i know you were open to me making a couple

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

okay, so prints... i might make a few for these two cons i'm doing in the fall

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

head on

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

you really tackled the crowd stuff head one!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

but i totally get what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

hehehe I know I'm just being a bitch

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

hahaha i promise! like i said, there's a classroom, but it can not only be a small class but also show from angles where it's not the whole room

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

but no more big group scenes :3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

do whatever you think is best

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

hehe

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

esmeralda slaps minerva around a little

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

not totally true

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

oh wait

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

do you think it needs another fight?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

that reminds me... there's really only one fight scene in #3 and it's the beatdown at the end

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

it calms down a bit from page 18 on

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

hehe some do! this is quite an insane issue

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

I feel like every page just gets more and more insane

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

thanks! happy you like 'em

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

I love everything about 'em

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

Amazing pages. Your best yet. Really great. So much kickass detail and action and drama!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

HOLY FUCKING SHIT HELL FUCK YEAH!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 9:00am PDT

anddd

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 7:10am PDT

thingy

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:43am PDT

it's all fine man

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 2:43am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:52am PDT

Hrmm scratch that. I think I figured out a good way to handle it and preserve the fun of the 6 panel page repetition.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:43am PDT

Okay, so I'm almost done with the first few scenes in the #3 script. Right now it goes: splash page, one 6 panel page, one 5 panel page, and then like four more 6 panel pages. Is that awful? Am I totally ruining the fun here?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:40am PDT

OMG AWESOME!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, August 14, 2015 at 12:08am PDT

hehehe didn't they allready do a thing for that

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 4:56pm PDT

okay, so I have another comic based on a sorta-licensed property that i think we should make... BALL FONDLERS

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

k enjoy!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

adioooos

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

I'm off to lay in bed and read

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

okay then

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

yep, that's 100% right

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

unnecessary details FTW

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

so kickass

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

i love how her hand is all lumpy and almost gross in her glove too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

I love it. So much awesome tension in Cougar's face!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:33pm PDT

yay

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

FUCKING PERFECT!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

anddd thats todays work :3

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

hehe

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

no

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

do you know what your conflict would be?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

very interesting

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

oh sweet!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

or instead of lazer eyes and shit like that the super powers would be psychedelic powers

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

kinda?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

so it's like what if the psychological powers of a cult leader were also physical in a superman kind of way?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:22pm PDT

ooooooooooooooooo that's so cool! i really dig the hook

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

my idea is almost like what if superman would be more psycadalic and live in the desert

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

it is

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

hmmmm that's definitely an interesting exploration

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

words

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

I find it hard to truly put into works

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

could this happen now?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

how one man can obtain so much power

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

how fucked up it all is

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

what about it do you find especially interesting?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

reading about Manson makes me want to make something inspired by it

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

sect comic?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i'll probably do this next: http://www.amazon.com/Men-Who-Would-King-DreamWorks-ebook/dp/B003L7822M/ it's kind of out of date now (came out in 2010), but i'm still interested in it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

might have to write a comic about a sect first tough :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

that sounds sweet!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

the next one I'm reading is: http://www.amazon.com/The-Wind-Up-Bird-Chronicle-Novel/dp/0679775439

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

heheh cool

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

i also got this http://www.amazon.com/American-Nations-History-Regional-Cultures-ebook/dp/B0052RDIZA/ and http://www.amazon.com/Foxy-My-Life-Three-Acts-ebook/dp/B00351DSMS/ from the library, but i probably won't finish them

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

yeah, that's like my favorite kind of thing to read... non-fiction books about comics and superheroes and shit... business and history stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

hehehe you read allot of comic related stuff don't you

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

ooooo creepy shit! i'm halfway through this: http://www.amazon.com/Billion-Dollar-Batman-Bruce-Scivally-ebook/dp/B006ONVW7M/

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

I've been reading: http://www.amazon.com/Helter-Skelter-Story-Manson-Murders/dp/0393322238/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1439492248&sr=8-1&keywords=helter+skelter

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:57am PDT

Interesting

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

cool!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

i just finished this one this morning: http://www.amazon.com/Comic-Wars-Marvels-Battle-Survival-ebook/dp/B008HJX38W

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

I prefer not to but sometimes Im like "fuck it"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

i know you have your ways

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

yeah i've been reading a shitload too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

I can get it other ways

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

so the first two might already be gone

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

they only leave them up for like a week though!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

been reading on my off time

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i'll probably start doing that two

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

i've already watched the first two eps on the adult swim site... stique's seen the first three...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

can't wait to see Rick and Morty season 2

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

yes good job

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

you'll have to tell me if it was gentle enough, though

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

already did, i think

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

could you do the gentle stuff?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Rick and Morty is good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

also, Justique is addicted to Rick and Morty

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

but it's probably for the best that we gently rejected the pinup idea now instead of having him try to shove one into #4 or something. i just feel like if you're doing a cover for him, you should also have the benefit of getting a cover from him!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

i had a feeling jason might suggest a pinup

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

true

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

but it lacked hulk

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

could have

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

well hey it could have been for my personal collection of poorly photoshopped superhero collages...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

I might be stoopid but I ain't dumb

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

yeah i figured you figured

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

I figured

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

that 90s superhero collage is intended to be reference for the Meowz costume, BTW. i'm writing a great 90s superhero joke into #3.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

I'm about halfway done inking #2

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

yep, basically

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

I think we had so many plans we forgot what we were doing

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

right now i'm just focused on getting the #3 script done and lettering #1. everything after that is just whatever happens!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

hehehehehe

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

me too!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

I forget/ am unclear what our plan was

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

I don't know :P

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

do you mean waiting to pitch it until the entire thing is done?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

they might! but we might not start pitching it until the spring or whatever and then it's kinda in the air for like 6 months right

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

sure, i'm cool with anything you decide

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:14am PDT

Now that I mentioned it I think it's fine to keep Jason in the loop because of that idea

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

frankly, i think that they'll do cougar and cub no problem if we can't find anyone else. especially once they see the book lettered and everything. but i could be wrong.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

now that I brought it up

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

yay

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:13am PDT

yeah not a bad idea.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:09am PDT

ye I was also gonna bring up that it might be an idea to consider looking at ideas we have or whatever and pitching one of those 'exclusively' to AL:DZ or whatever for after C&C

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

but i'll leave that part of it up to you ;)

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:06am PDT

i kinda feel like it's not worth mentioning that to jason... ya know, since our project isn't necessarily with him

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

tootoot

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

to

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

tooo

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

yes jason is and that was my idea two

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:05am PDT

i figure our best bet is to let him know that we'd LOVE to get a variant from him for our next project. is Jason copied on all of your emails?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

and personally i don't think it's worth asking for a pinup

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:04am PDT

hehehe okay I'll mail something

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

it would have to be in like 3 days haha

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:02am PDT

the only option would be a #4 variant and i think it's already too late for that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:01am PDT

ye it's probably to late for a cover right?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

but maybe for Cougar and Cub!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

so for the Dean Rankine thing... i doubt we'll be able to do a trade for Holy F*cked art

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

did you see the ittlybitty mails?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 11:00am PDT

hahaha nice title

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

also happy to make your dreams awesome any time

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

PUSSY HUNTER

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:47am PDT

okay I know the Sequel to ONS

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

hehehe sounds good

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

i think i even slow-mo'd it in my dream so i could watch it in detail. it was sweet.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

and you figured out how to perform this rad stunt in your hotel lobby that involved using a random piece of metal to ride on the wall

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

you were living here in the US because we were working on some project, live a TV show or something

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 10:03am PDT

had an insane dream about you...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 13, 2015 at 4:41am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 10:56pm PDT

still developing... more news soon...

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

i may have completely fucked the six panel layout thingy... i decided to insert a scene in the middle of it

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 10:55pm PDT

uh oh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 9:29pm PDT

totes

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

that's out of control

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa HOLY SHIT!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

got so much done today it's cray

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 4:42am PDT

nice!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 12, 2015 at 2:15am PDT

DAMN! It was kinda tricky but I managed to make pages 2-5 of #3 with the 6 panel layout.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

so i understand why that fake "real" shit is popular

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

but i get it, i guess... some people don't actually like cartooning even though they do like comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:35pm PDT

well, yeah, i don't see the point in it either

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

ye but... I don't quite see the point but whaddever

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

it's not just the style... it's actually a language specifically designed for the medium

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

"we could so something with sea related superheroes"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

or I could send them a funny reply and see where it goes :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

I guess

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

do you feel like there's a short reply you could send? like a "sorry i'm too busy!" kind of thing?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

If I put myself in their shoes I know it must feel sucky

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

no but I feel bad about not replying

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

do you feel like they might pester you if you don't reply?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

yeah cuz you haven't done anything with them in a long time

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

ohhhhhhhhhhh i see

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

I think they that idea, thats why I think I got the email

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

do you feel like you gave them the idea that you wanted to work with them more?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

if I had unlimited time I would totally pitch a thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

hmmmm tell me more, i'm interested in how you feel about this.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

"OH NO!!!!! The S.E.A. Men are here! WE'RE SCREWED!!!!! We can't withstand their Force!"

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

the name is most of what he has

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

because I feel like I led them on, by working with them when I was bored

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

second off, why guilty?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

okay first off that name is AMAZING

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

but the whole thing is so silly that I'm just ignoring it, but I feel a little guilt about it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

(the email was also for one of their writers)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

a couple days ago I got like an email if I could come up with the idea for and write a comic called S.E.A. Force (Secret European Army Force)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

was this windmill?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

which is fine with me becuase I'd rather not work with them anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

one of the 2 things I drew was supposed to be the first part of a longer thing (long being 20 pages or whaddever) but then the writer got writers block or somethin

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

soo last year I drew 2 short thingies for a dutch small press superhero publisher...

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

ask scott :P

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

them

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

i just wonder if its possible to profit on the TPB without printing the singles. like, would we lose even more without then?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

yeah i completely agree with that perspective

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

but whadddeveurr

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

sooo why print them

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

the way I see it we didn't earn any money on the singles

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

so who knows, maybe i'll end up testing those waters so we'll know if the digital first thing is even worth it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

if i have a hard time finding another publisher, i'm sure Action Lab might be into it! like, the all ages side

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

ye you've told me

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

so it would be ripe for a digital first kind of release like that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

that one features every panel in a 16:9 ratio

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:48am PDT

my project that i'm finishing up with m buddy from Sweden...

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

good point

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

everybody has mixed feelings about everything :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

i think Aaron and Kelly have had mixed feelings about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

both Sabertooth Swordsman and Heart In A Box did that over at Dark Horse

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

yeah, i know what you mean.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

in general, he's getting more proactive right now. so i think there might be some interesting opportunities to experiment coming up in the next few months.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

but then again my ultimate idea would be to have digital single issues and print just as a collection

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

I wouldn't be against that

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

but if we wanted to try it out for something in the future, it's an option

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

ye but it sounds like a pretty good idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

it's too late for us to test that out with HF'd

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

all issues (or just a collected edition) available at the same time through comiXology

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

so he's doing a bit of a digital first initiative for some upcoming projects where the entire thing gets released at once online, and then gets printed.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:42am PDT

as in people who read digital comics the way they watch stuff on Netflix

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

he also mentioned that he wants to test out some things to capitalize on binge readers

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

OH

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

i gave him a quick Cougar and Cub update, just letting him know that we starting working on it regardless of any publishing plan. and he knows i'm interested in trying to find other publishers for it. he wants to do the same thing for his books too, so he gets it.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:40am PDT

I like proactive

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

allright! thats good

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

but our reviewer and fan promo time is just coming up now so we'll have him around to push for more reviews and such

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

he's implementing more proactive marketing policies. it's a bit late for us since #1's retailer promotion cycle is over

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

BUTTTTTT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

we might get some more comp copies out of that? i dunno!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

i'm gonna give him a little help on Twitter by responding to people via the Danger Zone account. so for me that's a slight change...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:38am PDT

what does that mean for us?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

okay cool!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

he's starting to take over more of the marketing stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

talked to Dave a bit yesterday

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

not much. more of a logistics thing, which is super not important anyway in a story like this

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

a little I don't think it's mentioned much

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:32am PDT

all we have to do is tweak dialogue

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

but for the comic con thing we have so much flexibility

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

it does it the first issue and shit since they're all talking about night and so on

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

not really

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

yes I always figured the times didn't really matter

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:30am PDT

oh and the scene in the car... you drew it so we never see the outside of it while they're driving so i think it's perfect. we'll just figure it all out later. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:29am PDT

yup thats all

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

so all you have to do is change the color of the sky to make it whatever time of day we want it to be, right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

no

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i forget... do we ever see the moon or anything?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

that works

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

so when Cub storms off, he's just like "bah! see you on monday. i'm leaving" or something

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

yeah i think it's totally doable

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

instead

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

maybe we just make it the fucking weekend

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

who cares

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

BUT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

I get that but

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

thought

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

my whole though is that it would be night since Cub goes to school that day...

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

it could just be during the day

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

mhhhhh

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

since it looks like the crowds are all going into Comic Con instead of leaving it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

i'm wondering if we need to tweak the time of day that the scene is happening

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

thumbs up for reading and thumbs up for dick spots

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:23am PDT

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

"Cheap Hugs" and "Mom I'm Gay" are AWESOME

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

now it doesn't feel like it's just a texture that happens to be people

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

hahaha FUCKKKKKKK

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

ye I repeated allot but it still took me hours to draw

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

yup and now I gotta repeat it on page 10 and 12 :3

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:19am PDT

very cleverly repeated people

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

you did it all SDCC style with a fucking throng of human cattle

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

that crowd is super legit, though

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

i dig how Zooney's domino mask is SO big. it's great.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 11, 2015 at 7:04am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

nah no real eastern eggs

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

i'm gonna have some fun with these six panel layouts

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

any other easter eggs that i missed?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

Nice to see Jesus and Holy Spirit in there ;)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:12pm PDT

I LOVE THE HANGER ROBOT!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 1:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:33am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:31am PDT

that looks cool! what is it?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

yeah it's waaaaay too many people, i know! hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i'm sure it's happened

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i dunno if i've ever seen another comic with a scene where the characters fight next to cosplayers wearing their costumes.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

this issue is kind of driving me insane but it's going to be awesome

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:27am PDT

i'm pretty stoked about this cosplay scene, though....

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

i'

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

otherwise, it's pretty minimal settings and characters

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:26am PDT

okidoki :)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

like the whole series

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

i think the closest thing to that in the rest of the comic is a classroom scene

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

good

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

thanks for being cool about it :D

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

this is the only crowds issue

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:25am PDT

NOPE!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:15am PDT

#3 better not have crowds

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:08am PDT

I almost wish I could add that as a relation status or whatever on facebook

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

hahaha NICE

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

thats what you called me

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 11:03am PDT

???

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

your primary collaborator

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

oh welllll whaddever

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:52am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

so it makes voices seem a bit higher

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:51am PDT

and if chris is like me, then he also runs a slight filter to remove excess bass that makes the recording more muddy

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

still, podcasting is different than music

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

yeah that's true you do have lots of experience with it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

but I never got used to it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:46am PDT

the weirdest thing about me having problems with it is that I used to sing and did video's and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

ye most people do

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

they just think it sounds so weird and unlike themselves

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

i'd say that most people have a similar reaction to their voices

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:44am PDT

from my years pf podcasting, i

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

nuthin wrong with dat

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

hahaha maybe!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

sense*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

or maybe I'm just being over critical because I know I've got it somewhere in me.... if that makes sence

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

BUT MAYBE IT DOES TO EVERYONE ELSE

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:39am PDT

hahahaha! doesn't sound that way to me

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

almost

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

in this recording I almost sound like I have that stereotypical gay voice

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

no if you would have a low voice

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

nah, it's not

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:34am PDT

your voice?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:31am PDT

a constant drone

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

hehehehe guess so

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:30am PDT

like in their head, their super low voice must be insanely low

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

i can't even imagine what it sounds like to someone who has a super low voice when they hear it NOT recorded

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

I'm all about it

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

dat bass

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:29am PDT

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:28am PDT

my voice is so much higher pitched then it is in my head

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

every mic is a little different too

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:27am PDT

I will never get used to my voice

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

basically

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

but ye whaddever

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

thats a nice way of sayin it ye

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

it's pretty raw

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:19am PDT

don't think so.... but it looks like rhmmm not to great

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:18am PDT

is there more of it? i can't find it on the site.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

I think this is it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

http://spacemandead.moonfruit.com/space-negro/4575177536

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 10:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

ROCKS

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

I love the super simple first panel. Ricks.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

Father Fornicator is like an evil Muppet. Great!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

FUCKYEAH LOVEIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

i'm gonna fucking tear through this issue, I hope. It was super slow getting started but I got a slightly different technique that should be cool.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

got dis inked

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Cooooooooooooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

It's perfectly awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

I like the lettering you showed me

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

I'm open to anything that'll make you more psyched about the look of the book.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

As for the lettering, I'm glad to try out something a bit different if you'd like.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

So good.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

I love Cougar's sad dance.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 9:46am PDT

Dey look bangin!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 7:28am PDT

I'm gonna pretend these didn't get super rough

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 4:30am PDT

good job

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 4:30am PDT

it looks good. I'd probably go with something bigger and 'bolder' but thats my personal style.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 10, 2015 at 4:26am PDT

cool with me

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 12:41am PDT

it's basically the Holy F*cked style but... with Back Issues as the font using slightly tighter spacing, plus the balloon tails are a little curvier.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

how's this style for ya?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 10, 2015 at 12:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

okidoki awesome

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 1:00pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

lemme upload it to el drive

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

yesh I do

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:57pm PDT

Also, did you save a version of the opening splash page mock up with the actual fonts in there?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

Hopefully I streamlined my process too. Make it quicker!!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

I think I perfected a nice dialogue lettering style for this story. I'll be sending you samples tonight.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hehehe yup

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:56pm PDT

I only nitpick the most inconsequential stuff.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

But you know how I roll

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

Yeah, it's super unimportant

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

i'll do it tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

I can do that

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

What do you think?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

To me, POOF just normally indicates a cloud of something or a magic reaction.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

But if it's easy to change, maybe PLOP instead?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

If it's a pain in the butt to tweak it, I say forget about it.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

I didn't realize that was the word in there in the thumb.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

The Esmeralda page is solid too, of course! Only one thought on that one... the POOF sfx might be a bt confusing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

I love it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

right*

Nick MarinoSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

It's so grusome!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, August 9, 2015 at 12:53pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

i think it probably depends on the circumstance!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

you are generally nicer and more supportive then I am

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

't is what 't is

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

i'm not the world's #1 Jason fan, but i support him as much as i support any other comics acquaintance.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Like he isn't Jeremy bad or Jamal on facebook bad

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

I'll come clean and say that I don't like Jason all that much :3

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

fairpoint

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:23pm PDT

not sure i agree that it's sexist without actually reading the story. but it certainly is sexually exploitative.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

it's quite sexist

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

but......

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I understand you are trying to be nice and stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:20pm PDT

hahaha! did i go too far?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

not negative just a poor review

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 12:08pm PDT

people are weird

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

where did they get that from?!?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

i've noticed a lot of people think that our title has an exclamation after it like "HOLY F*CK!"

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, August 6, 2015 at 10:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 9:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, August 6, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

And grogeous pics!!!!!!! Very creative.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

Cool paneling choice to go with the three verticals.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:50pm PDT

Awesome thumbs :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

TINARIFIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

I did however take some pictures whilst walking the dog, that creative too right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:15pm PDT

I only thumbnailed 2 pages today

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 1:07pm PDT

sweet

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

Jason's getting the files ready for #1 to be printed!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

they still use it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:28pm PDT

the 60's logo is from the original books I think

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

Also, a giant YES to the campy cover dialogue.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

The first one with the little Doc head is great. But the swirly 60s vibe of the second logo is INCREDIBLE!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

I love both of these covers!!!! FUCK YES!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

hehehe same cover art but with funny dialogue and the regular logo which I also love

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, August 5, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

check dat logo

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

The chair flop is so funny. And I love the angles you chose for the argument page.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

WONDERFUL!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 1:11pm PDT

this'll be it for today

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

k cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

ye sounds like a good idea

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

page 12 could be pretty awesome as 12 panels of her struggling with the weights and then 13 is a splash of her lifting it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:14pm PDT

she's bench pressing in the cat hole and she struggles and struggles until she finally lifts the barbell and roars

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

she's so frustrated and depressed and can't get past it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

so there's this scene with minerva lifting weights and it's like her breakthrough moment

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:13pm PDT

actually, page 12 with 12 panels would be better

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:12pm PDT

also, i might still write page 13 with 13 panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

but i dunno how well it fits this story

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

works

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

6, 3, 3, 6

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:11pm PDT

right now i'm trying to figure out what to do with pages 10-13 if it's mirrored

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:10pm PDT

i'll keep it in mind

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:09pm PDT

it's fun, though

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:07pm PDT

but ye at the end of the day, do whatever you feel like I'm just trying to make your job more difficult for no reason

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

yeah mirrored could be super cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

i know you can

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

no you can't

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

I can fit 13 panels on a page

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

but if you think it would be more fun to make the issue mirrored instead of making page 2-5 6 panels that would be cool too

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

can't fit 13 panels on a page, eh?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

oh i see how it is...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

nah I'm good :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

if you likes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

whuuuut

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:05pm PDT

and page 13 with 13 panels ;)

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

i'll make page 9 with 9 panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

in fact

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

i'll write more 9 panel pages for sure, though!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

I just taught it would be funny to make the issue mirrored

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

i like the idea

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

never mind that idea :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

or does that ruin it?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

that would give us pages 10-13 to be anything we wanted?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

so that means page 14 would be the last page to be 9 panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:03pm PDT

i'm doing all of the issues as 22 pages...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

it's silly

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:01pm PDT

so the 9 panel thing...

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

but lemme see how it might work the other way

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 12:00pm PDT

i was just looking at it now and thinking it would probably be pg = splash, pages 2-5 = 6 panels, and pg 6 = splash

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

outline, not script

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

work

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

i'll take a look at the script and see if i think it could

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:56am PDT

... thats doen't quite work out but you know what I mean

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

and then page 10 is 9 panels also and 11 is 8 panels

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

so page 1 is 1 panel, page 2 2 panels and that up to page 9

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

IF your up for it, it might also be funny to do like a build up thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

no prob bob!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:54am PDT

got it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

page 2 trough 5

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

to be clear... you want pages 2-5 to be the 6 panel layout? or you want at least 4 pages of 6 panel layout throughout the issue?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:53am PDT

cool I like adding random silly rules

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:52am PDT

cool, i can do that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:51am PDT

to start with the splash page thing and then have 4 pages that are a simple 6 panel layout

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

what's the challenge?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:50am PDT

i was going to start soon

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:49am PDT

tell me when you start with #3 I might want to add an extra challenge

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:47am PDT

it's majestic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:46am PDT

I have to grab every chance for sillyness

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

SOOO MUCCCCHHHHHH

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

you'll see soon en ough

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:37am PDT

what did you decide to put in the cat hole?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

drawing the Demon story on paper will be SWEEET!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

i'm downloading the TIFs now :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

I get it

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

to me, the idea was to make the action big and exciting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

mokay I'll do that

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

yeah, go ahead and change the double page spread into two splash pages if you'd like!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:36am PDT

but ye the double page spread

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:34am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

I'm not to crazy about that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:22am PDT

o ye one thing about the script my only hangup (after thinking about it for a bit) is the double page spread

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:21am PDT

I also uploaded tiff's to the dropbox

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:20am PDT

with a bit of luck I'll actually get to do this one on paper

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

it's gonna be an interesting thing to draw

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

hehe cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

I saw it!!!! LOVED it. I was raving about it this morning. Super cool.

thanks

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

anyway, i think they're perfect. brilliant idea to use them.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

might be in issue three as well

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

but only like once or twice

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

I had a couple of moments when we reference the names

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

DICKY!!! ROY!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Yeah, I can do a traditional style for the letters. Just wanted to experiment a bit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

I'm really feeling it. Who are the characters? Is he The Gull? And the sidejerks?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, August 4, 2015 at 10:53am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 5:42pm PDT

experimenting with a couple of new looks...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 5:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:26pm PDT

Cool, just put 'em in this folder: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B67SE_xwXHvsSkFNcy0tV3JFQ1E&usp=sharing

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

byeeeeeeeee!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

bye bye

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

I'll send it in the morning gonna watch a thing with Amanda now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:24pm PDT

ye your right

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

Cool. I feel like it's the minimum amount of work for maximum result.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

sounds good

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

And we have the full issue in black and white as an example.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

You just color the pitch.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

Once the lettering is done, we can decide what section will be our strongest pitch.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

I'll letter the whole first issue while you start drawing the second issue.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT

Send me the PSDs or TIFs or whatever for all of the inks...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

What about this...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:21pm PDT

2. Creatively, though, I think that coloring everything at once will make it a really cohesive overall product!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

1. If we pitch the book to publishers with the entire first issue completed, then it's nice to have the issue colored.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

Immediately, I have two perspectives on that...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:16pm PDT

I havent even decide yet if I want to color #1 before I start #2 or color all of it at the end

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

BUT I DON'T KNOW OUR AUDIENCE YET!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:15pm PDT

i think it's all about knowing your audience in a way... putting it into the style and format that maximizes their attraction to it.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

probably

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

hehehe I like the grey tones idea aswell but a publisher would have us change it anyways

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

I think my opinion changes like every 5 mins.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:14pm PDT

Part of me is like "let's fucking make it like a manga! only grays and halftones" and part of me is like "ooooo so glossy with the highlights!" and part of me is like "flat colors rule!"

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:13pm PDT

I love the halftone version, the "local" flats, the tinted flats, and the tinted ones with the highlights!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

So I have things I love about each version. A the end of the day, I wanna go with whatever version you like the most. I'm gonna be happy with it no matter what!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:12pm PDT

hehehe thanks

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

You know what it is? I just like your art. And everything you send looks amazing to me.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:11pm PDT

OH COOL! I love seeing it with the untinted flats like that.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

most people would do it with mostly blue's but purple is more exciting

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:10pm PDT

but I added purple tints to it to make it look more night like

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:09pm PDT

thats what the flat colors would look like with just 'local' colors

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:08pm PDT

also on the color choice...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:07pm PDT

oh well we'll see

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

they don't take allot of time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

so i'm pretty much 50/50 on it right now.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

and i know that personally it would be way more work for me if i had to do the highlights.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

but i also love the way it looks without the highlights.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

there's a tad more depth.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

after seeing the full page without it, i definitely agree with you that it's glossier with the highlights.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:57pm PDT

you prefer without right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

I know it works either way :)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

yeah im down for whatever you prefer! just wanted you to know that i think it works great either way.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

this is the page without the highlights I think it's very much a taste thing the highlights make it look a bit more glossy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

I'll read it tomorrow!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

DONE!!! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1q-hEVMJGwipTqTAti430yf9bUy9xTEBXwxGDnWbng9U/edit?usp=sharing it's got so much *drama* ;)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 12:36pm PDT

proofreading the script now

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 9:36am PDT

Regardless of any tweaks, I think this looks fucking sweet :D

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

So is the idea that their costumes are almost red/orange when it's dark out but yellow/orange when there's good lighting?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

My personal taste is for no highlights (like the second sample you sent). I like the flat colors with shadows only... feels, I dunno, more fun to me? That's the best way I can describe it. But I know that might not be everyone's taste. If you prefer the way the highlights look and don't mind doing them, then I say go for it!!!!!!! But otherwise I think you should save yourself the work.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 9:32am PDT

I think it looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 6:16am PDT

okay wadda ya thing 'bout dis

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:51am PDT

more like the pinups

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:45am PDT

something like this would be way more practical

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:31am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:31am PDT

tell me not to do this

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

k bye bye

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

i love writing in the middle of the night. it's the best!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

they were based on old comics

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:13am PDT

okay, i'm going back to bed. i just woke up in the middle of the night to finish the script. it's like 4am here hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:12am PDT

yeah i was impressed, especially because color copies like that can sometimes be underwhelming. but these color copies totally blew me away. great palette choices.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:12am PDT

looked pretty good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:12am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:11am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:11am PDT

OH GOOD

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:11am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:10am PDT

the colors looked fucking AMAZING on those pages

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:10am PDT

one of the print versions of our One Night Stand pitch

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:10am PDT

that's something i meant to give you when you were here...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:10am PDT

OH SHIT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:09am PDT

i understand that

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:09am PDT

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:09am PDT

most of the issue is at night so I might want to do something else then I did in the pin-ups

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:09am PDT

exciting!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:08am PDT

I'm doing a color test right now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:08am PDT

understood

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:08am PDT

So I guess it's done but it's not 100% done until I give it one one final edit.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:07am PDT

okidoki

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:07am PDT

I think I'll proofread it / give it one more look tomorrow.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

I'll read it in a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

I just finished writing the last page of #2's script.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:06am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 4:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:27pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:26pm PDT

I said something like "something visual would work well. other than that it doesn't matter"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

ye I said something simillair

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:24pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:21pm PDT

I asked het to tell me more about both of these

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:19pm PDT

Yeah I bet it's pretty fucking rad! That's a story she hasn't read to me before. The synopsis is all I know about it.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

" A demon who emerges for some type of spiritual battle on an exact date is insulted about how he lost the last fight. He returns before the battle begins a couple decades early to kill the divine being who always helps the humans but finds her more aligned with his views than he thought."

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:17pm PDT

the first one also jumped out to me

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

IMO

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:16pm PDT

it was an exceptionally good story

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

oka

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 1, 2015 at 12:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:05pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

yeah, basically more sadness and punching

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

fights are good

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT

so i'm adding some more character moments and fights

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

our plot for this issue ended up being a bit thinner than i'd expected

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

i'm about halfway done with the script for #2

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

COOL! i think she might have some questions for you... but might not know how to ask them. this is a pretty new process for her.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

't shall be done

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

my suggestion is just to shoot her an email and get a conversation started between the two of you

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

ah okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:53pm PDT

i dunno when Stique is planning to email you! yesterday she started going through all of her non-novel stories to see which might work well for a short comic

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:52pm PDT

haha nice

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:51pm PDT

you said Justique was gonna email me just for a frame of reference. how long do you think that might take

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

mja probably have to pick her up at 2/3 somewhere :3

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

i say lower it a little if you're down

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

I like it but i think it looks a little weird with the No sitting right on the border

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

unless you feel like having a little bit of the Trespassing is good too

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:41pm PDT

2. i think just seeing half of the "No" would work pretty well

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

1. make it a little smaller in Panel 3 maybe? just seems really huge to me, even with the foreground / background perspective

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

In keeping with my caring about this an odd amount, two suggestions:

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

I'm feeling this a lot more!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

I have to push it up a bit in the fourth panel

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

I'

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

a little

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

it's weird

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

i do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

yup you really seem to care allot

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

*typing

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

also, i'm kinda stunned i've put this much effort and tying into a private property sign

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

so while Watch Out was a good shorthand for a similar thing, i think the Private Property No Trespassing kicks it up another level with the information that's being communicated.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

to me, it implies that the road ended

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

2) it gets across the point why Roach HAD to come to a sudden stop

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

like people aren't supposed to be there

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

1) it suggests that this is a remote location

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

for me, personally, just using that design / text from the private sign works on two levels

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

well i'm open to any approach you'd like to take

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

and having it in both 3 and 4 helps with space

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

and based on something that people would know without seeing all of it

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

i think that sign would work out a bit better cut off because it's more specific

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

okay, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

I personally like cut of text becuase it makes it feel more like an extra background thingy

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

thoughts?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

like, i guess what i'm saying is that i don't think we'd need to see it in panel three. but having a little one on the side of the hill in panel four might really seal the deal!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

but they're normally pretty small, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

nah you got it everywhere kinda

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

but that totally seems like the kind of sign that would be there

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

i dunno

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

now maybe that's just an American thing

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

http://images.mysecuritysign.com/img/lg/K/Private-Property-No-Trespass-Sign-K-1125.gif

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

i know!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

OHHHHHHHHH

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

if all of the text is visible

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

i see it all now. spanx. yeah, i mean, i think a sign works

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

GOTCHA

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

i don't think a sign is a bad idea, especially if it's in both panels

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

well the thing is

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

I removes the sign there aswell

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

might just be you :P

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

but maybe im just being stupid

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

it looks like something is behind SKID to me

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

in panel three, is that the sign she's skidding up next to?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

but i don't even think it's necessary

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

or something

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

or Road Work

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

maybe some kind of road sign? like Dead End

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

but if you still want a sign there

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

moaky

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

because i don't even think we need it

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

don't remember

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

So your idea for the Watch Out sign... it's there because?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

many ways

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

I'm wondering if there's a way we could make it clearer.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Yeah I figured.....

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

yup but it's cut of

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Is that supposed to say Watch Out?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

What's the sign near Roach's head?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

The driving page came out awesome too!!!! So kinetic. Really cool. I love that the mansion has such a ridiculous sign on it!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

happy you likes it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

thanks man!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

So funny. Great pacing and expressions :D

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

And then I went and used them in that stupid Donald Trump image where it doesn't matter how real they look anyway :D

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, July 31, 2015 at 12:29am PDT

hehehehe

Nick MarinoFriday, July 31, 2015 at 12:28am PDT

Blank sketch cover + our cover art + multiply = magic!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

it's hard to tell at this point

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

coulda been a stringy piece of celery

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

but it was tasty

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

i'm eating it right now

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

yes it is!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:55pm PDT

anyways I'm happy with what me made so that's good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:52pm PDT

I know but reasons

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:48pm PDT

only us and Action Lab knows the number... as far as pretty much everyone knows, its just as much of a "deal" as Holy F*ck. and, frankly, this is mostly just the initial impression of retailers, not what readers want.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT

IMO the actual order number isnt that important... what's important is that this whole thing actually leads us to getting our next book published!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:46pm PDT

you mean a third variant?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

I'm also gonna showar

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:43pm PDT

akmost wish we would have done a variant

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

showa time!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

is our new order number and probably the final tally before we go to print

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

just over 1600

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

it's good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 30, 2015 at 12:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, July 30, 2015 at 11:58am PDT

Dudes! All I can say about the 4 podcasts...EPIC! haha I'm sad to see it go, you guys might need to change the podcast to 'Ross and Nick talk about turtles'. You also got pretty profound on that 'Coming out of their shells tour', for a sec I thought someone was going to tear up. Man I remember my mom got me the concert on pay-per-view and even as a kid I lost interest, it was fucking boring. Sorry I wasn't more specific, that was issue #6 of the 'Tales' series from '87 with Leatherhead! Thanks for linking the site, I really appreciate it. You guys are good dudes, keep up the great work! p.s. did you ever see the turtle girl? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=070axV2ydnE

Nick Marino, Chris Bane
Chris BaneFriday, December 19, 2014 at 1:29pm PST

Haha. I hope you like that series. They do alot of video game related vides that are great.

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 1:25pm PST

That sounds sweeter than YooHoo. Like a gravy train with biscuit wheels.

Chris BaneFriday, December 19, 2014 at 1:23pm PST

Things are groovy like an old time movie

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 1:20pm PST

Things are decent. How about you?

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 1:20pm PST

NICE! I'm looking forward to watching it. Bookmarked it!!! I'll let ya know what I think.

Chris BaneFriday, November 8, 2013 at 11:12am PST

hey man, I hope your doing well out there in cali. I thought you may enjoy this. Shannon got an intern app and they put this line in their cover letter "I am the author of a young adult horror novel titled A Bite of Raw Flesh."

Chris BaneMonday, October 14, 2013 at 12:22pm PDT

Haha. I didn't know we were sending any

Nick MarinoMonday, October 14, 2013 at 7:57am PDT

Chris BaneTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:25am PDT

I'll be right back i have to head to lunch

Chris BaneTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:25am PDT

Chris BaneTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:24am PDT

yeah, on our coloring contest page in com serv. not too obscene you don't want the wrong person to get it and freak out. haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:23am PDT

hahaha nice!! dude, you're so right. i should do an awesome entry for it. maybe something really obscene. is everything up on the website?

Chris BaneTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:21am PDT

whats up man, you should enter our coloring contest it would be pretty funny. btw the "nick clock" still lives on here. I pranked shannon with it the other day.

Chris BaneWednesday, June 20, 2012 at 10:31am PDT

I probably don't have the time and i hate working on web stuff outside of the office, but i'll hear her out. my address is chrisbane82@gmail.com. thanks for thinking of me man!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 19, 2012 at 12:12pm PDT

What email are you using nowadays for non-ESA stuff? I have a friend who has an idea for an awesome interactive way to share events and concerts with people, and she's looking for good tech/programming/design help to get her idea off the ground. She's legit, too -- not a flake and not a jerk and actually has the skills to make this thing happen. If you're interested in at least talking to her, I can introduce the two of you through email.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 28, 2012 at 9:52am PDT

hahahaha nice

Chris BaneSaturday, April 28, 2012 at 7:05am PDT

todays shirt is awesome http://www.shirtpunch.com/index.php

Chris BaneFriday, December 30, 2011 at 11:21am PST

oh ok, yeah i wasn't in the office yesterday. i've been doing alot of running around to all these docs.

Nick MarinoFriday, December 30, 2011 at 11:19am PST

nada much, i just happened to be in front of the USX tower yesterday and thought id see if you were around

Chris BaneFriday, December 30, 2011 at 10:44am PST

hey man, i seen you tried calling me at work. whats up?

Chris BaneMonday, December 19, 2011 at 5:37pm PST

it was about the first 5 minutes, then the trailer, Bane looks sick... and has an awesome name haha

Nick MarinoMonday, December 19, 2011 at 5:12pm PST

no! i only saw the trailer. and your video's been taken down.

Chris BaneMonday, December 19, 2011 at 12:48pm PST

good luck man. did you see the video for batman that i posted?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 19, 2011 at 12:43pm PST

Good call on sideline store. Thx!

Chris BaneMonday, December 19, 2011 at 12:20pm PST

Honus Wagner has been closed down for awhile. I would probably head over to the sideline store at the staduim, i'm not sure of its hours though. There isn't anywhere up in oakland? I buy mine from china, good fakes for $25, but customs sometimes seizes them.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 19, 2011 at 11:52am PST

where do you think is the best place in town to buy steelers jerseys? one friend told me the strip. the only place i can think of off the top of my head is that honus wagner store downtown.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 9, 2011 at 8:32pm PDT

nice. looks good. i can't believe it finally launched.

Chris BaneWednesday, October 5, 2011 at 10:05am PDT

whats up man, Just wanted to let you know that we FINALLY got the new site up and running. their are still a few bugs but the launch went pretty smooth.

Chris BaneWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 8:17am PDT

i'll give it a shot, but i have low expectations.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 8:14am PDT

dude green lantern was sooooooooooooo bad for me, like just an awful watching experience.

Chris BaneWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 8:11am PDT

really, i liked both iron mans, the first was better though. I really liked how they had stark in cap, that was pretty cool. i'll have to check out cap. i still need to watch green lanturn even though everyone has said it was total shit. i don't konw how i feel about amazing spiderman, looks like they are going to do an amazing job with the 3D, but if they don't do 3D it doesn't look good.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 7:58am PDT

Thor was good, not amazing but good. Definitely better for me than Iron Man 2. But not nearly as good as Cap. I think Cap is probably my fave superhero movie now.

Chris BaneWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 7:51am PDT

Red skull looked awesome, costumes were great, stan lee was really funny. Definitely one of the better movies. Havent seen thor but I heard it was bad, like a love story

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 7:39am PDT

dude i LOVED captain america. holy shit it was good!!!

Chris BaneWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 7:23am PDT

Whats up man, sorry I missed your call the other day. hope you had fun in Dmont. did you see capt america yet? I seen it last night, I liked it! the old costume was awesome. haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 1:45pm PDT

ehhhh i might be interested but probably not unless they pay me a lot of $$$. hahaha tell lisa my rate is $100 an hour. seriously though, it all depends on the money they're offering.

Chris BaneWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 9:58am PDT

whats up man, hey do you have any desire to do some freelance work for us? the new site is finally in its final stages but soon we will have to go through every page to make sure they look correct and all that. Lisa asked me to ask you if you were interested in helping us do this massive review. let me know.

Chris BaneWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 7:54pm PDT

haha I did see that one .

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 1:18pm PDT

yeah she loves not listening to me. did i ever send you a link to this? http://superhaters.blogspot.com/2011/04/super-haters-122.html it's got a subtle reference to the Gary Busey footage from the Hunter S. Thompson documentary.

Chris BaneWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 11:00am PDT

damn usually he doesn't sign on for movies that turn into turds. oh well, i'll just wait. cap should be out soon, i'm pretty pumped for that one. have you watch the movie Lo yet? its on netflix. very low budget indie flim. i consider it a romantic comedy, but i thats me. haha. i liked most of it except anything the song by jeez. havent heard from her yet haha, she must not of listened to you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 10:51am PDT

oh god DON'T SEE IT. it's so bad. i mean, truly truly bad. at least, wait til DVD. maybe she'll get in touch with you today. what else is new wit you?

Chris BaneWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 10:10am PDT

thats cool, did you see green lantern yet? i haven't but ive heard good things. oh yeah? i haven't heard from her in a long time!

Chris BaneMonday, April 4, 2011 at 9:10am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2011 at 2:27pm PDT

Chris BaneSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:43am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:35am PDT

i can't escape edgar!!! http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/super-haters-edgar.jpg

Chris BaneMonday, March 21, 2011 at 12:29pm PDT

it wasn't the greatest movie. but i was cracking up at a few parts. not too much, recovering from st.pattys week. met a lady. other than that same old shit. i need to scoop up MvsC3, i would probably have it by now if you still worked here haha. how are things with you.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2011 at 12:22pm PDT

thx for the tip! i thought the trailers were whatever so i skipped it but i'm gonna try to check it out... in 2d. what else is new with you?

Chris BaneMonday, March 21, 2011 at 12:15pm PDT

whats up man, I seen gnomeo and juliet in 3d over the weekend. It was really funny. alot of adult humor in it. but i have to say it was by far the worst 3D i have seen to date.

Chris BaneWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 1:11pm PST

there was this horrible movie with alot of A list stars in it. he basically tells you the entire movie... its 43mins, but they have a cutup verion of his that is only 3mins. its pretty funny and the movie sounds awful

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 1:07pm PST

nice thx i'll check it... but what is it exactly?

Chris BaneWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 11:36am PST

this is pretty funny, but its long

Chris BaneMonday, February 14, 2011 at 3:09pm PST

no i ment it is a newer movie, but it feels like an older movie. you might want to check it out. I liked the potters but alot of things in it annoyed me. the newest one was my least favorites. i like order of the phenox the best. nothing really new at the office. same ol same ol.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 14, 2011 at 3:06pm PST

oh man just working on Super Haters and trying to get my other projects off the ground. i think i watched transylmania back when i was a kid. my fav back then was saturday the 14th. that was soooo dumb but great. what did you think of the potters? i think the newer ones are pretty good. how's the esa office going? as for stuff i've been watching, mostly documentaries on netflix. some good stuff. bomb it was an awesome graf one and the one 16 bars was a decent emcee history documentary.

Chris BaneMonday, February 14, 2011 at 11:20am PST

I watched transylmania over the weekend. It was a horrible movie, but i thought it was pretty funny as the same time. you might like it, it kindof has a 80/90s comedy vibe to it. also watch prince of persa (wasnt bad) and all the harry potters. anywho, whats new with you? anything exciting going on?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 20, 2010 at 8:43am PST

sweet! i swear i looked it up before and it wasn't streaming... weird! you gotta check out The Machine Girl. awesome Japanese horror. also, there's this hilarious 80s action movie called Caged Fury.

Chris BaneMonday, December 20, 2010 at 8:40am PST

i steamed it from netflix so it is on there. unless they take stuff down.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 20, 2010 at 8:20am PST

NO! if it's not streaming, then it's gonna take me a while to see it.

Chris BaneSunday, December 19, 2010 at 7:10pm PST

whats up man, nothing really new. same old shit. holiday party was cool. i liked having it at the casino better than the hotels in the past. oh how about right have you left they closed cafe euro and opened a damons. i can't think of anything good ive watched recently. have you watched ip man yet?

Nick MarinoSunday, December 19, 2010 at 11:47am PST

waz new? how's the office? how was the holiday party? see any good flicks? i've been watching a butt load of b-movies lately on netflix. saw harry potter, thought it was sweet. tron was decent too.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 3, 2010 at 6:09pm PST

no! everyone keeps telling me it's awesome. i need to see it. been doing okay... at a convention this weekend trying to sell some old comics. otherwise, consulting a little and trying to find some new $$$ gigs with SEO stuff. how about you? didn't you go in for that other surgery to cut the skin back? how was that? how's the office?

514121591@facebook.comFriday, December 3, 2010 at 12:54pm PST

ip man? its amazing. one of the best kung fu movies i've seen in a long time and based on the story of bruce lee's master. its on netflix. how have you been? anything new and exciting?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 26, 2010 at 2:22am PST

what's the best/easiest way to move over a wordpress database? (in particular, what program should i use?) i'm switching webhosts but not totally sure about this stuff. i was about to install this mysql server program, but i think it's way more than i need just to copy the database.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 3:16pm PST

okay okay you're right it does look pretty damn good!!!!!!!!1 btw, there's this new Infinity Gems storyline going on in Avengers... i'm not reading it, but i might get into it if i can score the books for cheap

514121591@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 10:56am PST

yeah i agree for the current cap. but i'm glad they have his orginal shield for the origin story. i don't think he has it the whole time either.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 10:54am PST

i really dig the circular one because 1) i think it's sweet that he uses it as a discus, and 2) i think it's sweet that his defense also acts as his offense.

514121591@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 10:45am PST

really? I love that shield. I'm so glad they are using it for this movie.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 8:31am PST

i hate that shield that's a damn good looking poster!!!

514121591@facebook.comTuesday, November 23, 2010 at 8:03am PST

they will have the old shield! i am happy http://www.derekhess.com/images/upload/8/image2/first-avenger-captain-america-poster1.jpg

Shake Weight Ep... sooooooo funny!

514121591@facebook.comFriday, November 19, 2010 at 8:39am PST

Well the real dante's infero isn't the same story (i don't think). The orginal was written by and italian author, but it just described the 7 levels of hell. this is using that structure and creating a story. but i could be completely wrong because i have yet to read it.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 18, 2010 at 8:03am PST

you know what he said something about King Richard so it's England but i thought Dante was Italian!

514121591@facebook.comThursday, November 18, 2010 at 7:56am PST

Really? Ill have to check it out. Couldnt get a country of origin from the vgame. Just he was part of the cursade

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 18, 2010 at 7:47am PST

yeah i was just curious what you thought of it since you know the game. seems weird to me that they're supposed to be Italian (right?) but they're more British than anything in the movie

514121591@facebook.comThursday, November 18, 2010 at 7:46am PST

No but they played alot of it in the game. Ill have to check it out though

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 18, 2010 at 7:39am PST

just watched the Dante's Inferno anime in the background as i was working. you see it before?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 10:23am PST

inside is a documentary. interesting. registered is a mockumentary. not that interesting, but a little funny.

514121591@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 10:14am PST

Inside Deep Throat? HA! Registered Sex Offender???? i'm staying away from that one.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 10:12am PST

thx! that sucks about the voice commands thing. here's a list of good stuff i've streamed since August (as well as some good series on there): Food, Inc. Inside Deep Throat This Film Is Not Yet Rated Dirty Work Drillbit Taylor Registered Sex Offender Confessions of a Porn Addict Up Event Horizon Superfly Confessions of a Superhero Dogtown and Z-Boys Archer season 1 all of the Die Hards all of Avatar the Last Airbender all of South Park all of Family Guy i bet there's a ton of TV shows on there you'd dig.

514121591@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 7:07am PST

Congrats, I hope you get it man. Yeah i'm alittle bummed netflix at the moment. I got it because of the kinect. but much to my chagrin (haha chagrin) kinect voice commands are not out yet for netflix, just zune. but they are coming soon. Alot most of the movie i want are DVD only.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 6:40am PST

i started it but never finished. i remember it being pretty sweet. DAMN there's so many things you gotta watch now!!! i'm gonna try to think up a list for you... also, i might have already scored my first consulting job!!! not sure yet though.

514121591@facebook.comWednesday, November 17, 2010 at 5:41am PST

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 19, 2009 at 7:05am PDT

sounds great! BUT... Ben just informed me last night that he has something planned for Justique and I on Sunday (sort of like a furniture warming party, i guess). what's your Monday like? if you're free, i was thinking maybe we could go out to lunch instead. i also figured that you could stay in Virginia longer that way. also, i should add that my travel plans are subject to chance just because stuff with this house is always complicated.

1477056932@facebook.comMonday, May 18, 2009 at 4:35pm PDT

Yo, I was thinking about Sunday. What if you and grams just go out with out me. I think that would be good for her and me. Then when you are done seeing grams you can come over and hang out with us. Sound good???? Love, AA

1477056932@facebook.comSaturday, May 16, 2009 at 4:01pm PDT

Nick, It was really a great day on Thursday. You are truly a very special guy. Thank you so much for sharing in our celebration. You are the best. Spent some time with Jen today. I totally enjoyed it. Hope all is well with you and Justique. Love ya, AA

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 9, 2009 at 11:43am PDT

4801997@facebook.comThursday, January 1, 2009 at 10:26am PST

mom's not doing that great. right now we're looking for the right alternative treatment for her since docs have pretty much said there's nothing they can do for her. any ideas? right now we're heavily eying the new hope medical center in AZ.

1477056932@facebook.comWednesday, December 31, 2008 at 5:12am PST

4806962@facebook.comMonday, July 14, 2008 at 6:05am PDT

Thanks a lot...I'm trying to decide just what to do 'cause i'm stuck between a rock and a hard place with lisa. (i know it's cliche but...you know...it fits right now lol) I hope you don't mind how vague i was on the phone. I wanted lisa to tell you what was going on herself, for my own sake as well as hers. Thanks again Justique

4801997@facebook.comSunday, July 13, 2008 at 6:02pm PDT

Hey Justique, Thanks for your call this morning. Lisa actually called me herself quite shortly after I called you and told me the whole story. Scary, scary stuff. Seriously, I told her: People die like that. I really hope that she means what she says and that this will be a wake up call. She had MY chest tight and heart pounding! My recommendation would be not even to buy stuff from Jon--if possible, try to minimize even the potential of a need to have contact with him. Plan some fun non-crazy-party related activities for the weekends, when the likelihood of getting into messed-up situations seems greater, if you can. Oh, and if you need to wait a bit before accepting my friend request to minimize suspicion that we spoke, that's cool. She has no idea right now that we talked. Have a good Sunday and take it easy.

just got this message about tomorrow's party: Didn't mean to bring your holiday cheer down a few notches, but due to a personal conflict of one of our roommates, it's no longer possible to hold this get together. I hope to see you all soon! Happy Holidays, Adam

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 11, 2007 at 7:50pm PST

i don't have too many contacts in pittsburgh so no i can't say i do have anyone else to ask. let me keep my ear to the ground and if anything comes up i'll let you know.

4810645@facebook.comSunday, February 11, 2007 at 9:56am PST

i talked to my friend on friday- he's already in two other bands so I don't think he's interested. craigslist is kinda scary but it might work... the only other thing i can think of is if you know someone who has a place where they can be loud and doesn't mind us playing there.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, February 5, 2007 at 7:17pm PST

yeah hopefully he'd be interested. the other thing could be doing a craigslist ad looking for musicians w/ practice space. hah! mmm any other ideas?

4810645@facebook.comSaturday, February 3, 2007 at 11:03am PST

hmm... i have a basement, but since it's a rowhouse drums are too loud. one of the guys i was thinking about asking to play with us has an unnattached house and already has a drum kit in his basement. if he's interested that would be perfect. other than that i dunno.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, February 2, 2007 at 1:04pm PST

some time next week could work out well. i don't have a good practice space unfortunately. any ideas?

4810645@facebook.comFriday, February 2, 2007 at 8:07am PST

i guess since we're both pretty flexible about what we play, we might as well invite other people that are interested. but i haven' had much chance to ask around- i haven't even really had a chance to ask my roommate- but i heard that the brass band he used to play in is starting up again, so i dunno how much time he'll have. i should see him this weekend. when do you want to meet up to play? do you have a space to practice?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, January 29, 2007 at 5:32pm PST

haha okay less anal songs. i like the trumpet / keyboard idea a lot. def ask around. i wish i had more people i could ask around to! but i will keep an ear out. so should we wait to recruit more members to play or try out a you / me / your rooomate practice?

4810645@facebook.comMonday, January 29, 2007 at 2:22pm PST

so I know a few guitar and bass players that aren't in bands now that might be looking to start something- i'll ask around. also, my roommate was saying he missed being in a band- he plays trumpet and keyboard. I don't know if any of them sing though. I listened to the some of your songs- I like the music. I wouldn't mind playing songs like that but probably a little less offensive- like I wouldn't want to play that many songs about anal sex.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, January 27, 2007 at 4:55pm PST

who else in town you got that wants to play? i have a possible guitar player once she finishes up what she's working on (our DW drummer), but i'm not counting much on that. in terms of music direction... well check out http://www.myspace.com/nickmarinoart - Special Licks, Frank Sanchez, and Nutsack Supernova are the best examples of the style of songs i've been writing. with that said, that doesn't mena i have to play that, it's just what i write. what would you like to play?

4810645@facebook.comSaturday, January 27, 2007 at 1:49pm PST

hey, sorry it took me so long to get back to you. but yeah, I'm down for pretty much whatever- I just want to play with other people again. did you have anything in mind? and oh man, I've wanted to do a double knock out revival forever- really mostly for the name (Double Knockout 2: Champion Edition). maybe if i can talk ko into visiting...

4801997@facebook.comFriday, January 19, 2007 at 7:57pm PST

good to see you out at the show. i watched some of our video of it - the sound sucked!!! moving on, i'm interested starting something new now that Dirty Weekend is going back into semi-retirement. and i want to play drums. so let me know if you want to try something out. (Double Knock Out revival, hmmm???)

Hey All! In case you haven't heard, or discovered via gossip or facebook status update, Wayne and I are moving to Lawrenceville! (We've technically been moving all this month, but we'll officially be IN starting next weekend.) And I want to be sure you have our new contact info: 4105 Saint John's Way Pittsburgh, PA 15201 412.251.5074 (land line) I have the same cell phone number, if you need to reach me that way. Needless to say, I'll be busy this week, but send some good vibes our way and let's get caught-up after the move. (I expect to see at least some of you on Saturday -- remember, we're feeding you!) As always, THANK YOU for all of your ongoing support. Look for photos of the new place coming soon...! - Marcel

When it was brought to my attention that "Because he sucks", while accurate, was not explanatory enough for why the Punisher is my least favorite comic character, I was hard-pressed to come up with a better one. But, in the interest of science, I'll give it a try: He sucks. That there is the seed from which my tree of hatred will grow. Dig the sapling: Frank Castle, AKA "The Punisher", is a perfect example of what some in the business call a "one trick pony". His shtick is that he's angry. He's angry and he owns weaponry. Walk up to any schmuck on the street and say, "Hey, schmuck...Do you know who the Punisher is?". if they say NO, tell them they're better for it and send them on their way. if they say "Yes" then ask them to describe him. The answer will be as such: "Blah blah blah ANGRY blah blah blah GUNS blah blah blah HAND GRENADES blah blah blah KNIVES blah blah blah SKULL" And so forth. Some will validate the Punisher and say "It's not THAT he kills people, it's HOW he kills people". Um...No it isn't. A kill is a kill is a kill. Using a shotgun or using a leaf shredder, it's still just the same old shtick repeated ad nausium. "But the mob killed his family! He's getting revenge for his MURDERED FAMILY!" A star going super-nova killed SUPERMAN'S entire PLANET (depending upon which origin story you stick to). Does he fly throughout the galaxy destroying stars? NO (even though he COULD because he's Superman). The fact that the Punisher is no better than the scumbags who started this whole mess is clear. Take his guns away and he's a pretty decent hand-to-hand combatant because of his years in VietNam (which would make him about, oh, 65 years old or so) but Batman could still kick his ass. WHY? Because Batman can control his anger. The Punisher is victim to his. What it comes down to? The quick and dirty reason I can't stand the Punisher: Because he BORES me. He WAS pretty cool when he was Frankenstein. I'll give him that.

hey, man! That would be great, man. I DO need a few more chapters. I'll let you in on the group and all that tomorrow after work.

mike- i'm a friend of shawn atkins. we normally meet up every week and work on art, and for the past few weeks he's been working the minicomic for your project. tonight he mentioned you may still need artists for a few chapters. i know the deadline is pretty soon but i'm interested in finding out more and possibly throwing in for a chapter if you think my art fits with the project. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2005292&id=4801997&l=8471a45929

No problem! Glad you found something you wanted. Let me know if you ever want to come to L.A. for a day. I have an extra bedroom where you can crash for the night. :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 9, 2013 at 4:26pm PST

I ended up in Long Beach :D Thx again for all of your advice!!!

Alma Castrejón De RobertsSunday, December 23, 2012 at 11:40am PST

I believe the area near UCLA is called Westwood. Talking to locals, they said that you should look into Mar Vista, Palms, Playa del Rey, Echo Park, Silver Lake and Studio City. One of them recommended that Glendale is not a good area, since you will be surrounded by Iraqui people. Not that there is something wrong about that, but it may not be a kind of environment/culture you may want to be surrounded. The same with Long Beach, there are good areas and not so good areas, some are considered slums. So even if you get a good deal on a place, you may be surrounded by violence. The areas that I know you should not look into are Watts, Inglewood and Jefferson (near USC and downtown). Lots of problems around those areas. There may be more, but those are the ones I've heard about. Have you started looking around?

Nick MarinoFriday, December 21, 2012 at 8:20pm PST

I love loving in college areas! Worked great for me in PGH.

Alma Castrejón De RobertsThursday, December 20, 2012 at 2:37pm PST

I'll still ask around and follow up with you. I forgot to mention on my last reply there is cheap living areas around UCLA area. A friend told me that when we moved from rural Illinois, he moved there bc it was very cheap. The bad side was that he was surounded by undergrads. So that could be another possibility, if you still want to be in LA. If you want to pop in tomorrow, the address is 9211 National Blvd. Los Angeles 90034. My cellphone is 412-482-0147. We'll be in touch!

Nick MarinoThursday, December 20, 2012 at 1:08pm PST

Hahaha no!! I wanna go to the End of the World party that wraps up by 3 PM so I can go home and do stuff before I die :D Okay, first off... THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THAT INFO!! It helps to hear a perspective like yours especially since your move is still fresh in your mind. My budget is $700-850, which I know sounds crazy low but I'm looking for studios and small one bedroom apts. I think I need to take another look at Glendale. We looked at it early on, but not very seriously. Anyway, there's a lot of food for thought in your reply. It's a huge help. I'll let you know what happens :D

Alma Castrejón De RobertsThursday, December 20, 2012 at 10:09am PST

For the party, I meant to say 11 am to Saturday 3 am..

Alma Castrejón De RobertsThursday, December 20, 2012 at 10:07am PST

Let me ask around to some locals to see what they think. We moved here back in July, so we kind of get a sense of where to live, but we're still figuring things out. When we moved here, we knew that we were not going to be able to pay less than $1000 on rent. At least not living in LA and in a somewhat nice area that it is not Beverly Hills. We currently pay $1850. I know that Long Beach is a good, cheap area near the beach. But, you will be a little bit far from LA. There's a metro that gets to a part in Long Beach and that can bring you all the way to LA. It will definitely be an hour commute. If you are looking to live near where the LA action is, you could look into Koreatown, Culver City (a city within the city of LA), Silver Lake (where all the hipsters live), and since you were looking into Burbank, what about Glendale? One thing to consider and something that we didn't know when we picked Culver City is that the west side of LA is "cooler" than the east side. The further you go away from the ocean, the hotter it will get during the hot days. We live 15-20 away from the ocean, and we get a nice breeze throughout the summer. I also feel like we are in a great location: there are buses that take you to different places, the current metro line takes you to downtown LA, but soon it will take us all the way to Santa Monica. We have the option to take 10 and 405 freeways.... You told me that you are still not in LA. In case you find yourself here in LA tomorrow, my apartment building is throwing an End of the World party tomorrow, starting from 11 am to 3 pm. We have a spare bedroom, if you want to crash. Let me know and I'll give you the info. Like I said, I'll ask around and follow up with you. But take a look at the areas that I told you about. Also, what is your rent budget? I guess that can help also to figure out where to live.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 4:48pm PST

Well, we originally wanted to be near Burbank cause we liked it. But it's so expensive!! Now uhhhhhh I dunno! I work from home, so that's not a thing. I'm not bringing a car so I wanna be near decent transit. Right now I'm thinking Long Beach. Thoughts??

Alma Castrejón De RobertsWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 10:48am PST

Hey! I'd be happy to help, and I'll also ask around to people that have been living her for a while. It would be easier for me to give you and get recommendations if you could tell me where you would want to be near by. For example: My husband and I decided to look for a place to live in Culver City bc they recently opened a metro station that goes straight to University of Southern California (USC) where he works. This way, at least one of us can commute to work. Culver City is an up and coming neighborhood and the rent prices aren't that bad. So, what is your ideal place to be near by?

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 10:01am PST

HI!!! Sooooo... I'm not in LA yet. That's mostly because I was eyeing up a specific section of North Hollywood that I've decided is just not going to work. It's too expensive and the apartments rent to fucking fast! What LA neighborhoods would you recommend?

606771011@facebook.comThursday, May 21, 2009 at 3:58pm PDT

That's awesome, Nick! Thank you so much!! Hopefully, I'll get somebody interested in my foster :) Take care, Alma

No worries Marcel. Thanks for the info.

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, February 4, 2011 at 8:42am PST

Dan, I'm already setting-up with Dawn Best, and it's possible Wayne may show up as well. I'm sorry! Have you contacted Chris Maverick? He was planning to go, and I don't know if he reserved his table yet, but he was looking to share a table.

Dan GreenwaldFriday, February 4, 2011 at 7:13am PST

So I may be in a bit of a pickle for the show next month. I just tried to reserve a table, but they're now sold out. I completed an exhibitor application to get on the waiting list. I'm optimistic that I'll get a table, but if I don't, would someone consider sharing their table and splitting the cost?

Michael Frick Weber, Nick Marino
Michael Frick WeberTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 1:08pm PDT

I'd say go ahead and plan as you'd normally do, and I will make myself available.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 9:18am PDT

Yeah, that's kinda late for me... is earlier a problem for you? If so, we could try out a weekend recording time if that's better.

Michael Frick WeberTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 7:50am PDT

After 9? or 10? . . . I'm a late night worker . . . but also flexible, so let me know what you'd prefer and I should be able to make it happen . . . I realize coordinating schedules can be tricky. In the mean time, would you mind sharing the videos links . . . might be fun as a talking point, if more people are already aware of them?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 7:47am PDT

Great. We have a couple weeks to work out the details... but yeah over Skype, episodes run for about 30-40 mins. What times are good for you in two weeks? Weds nights are probably my best.

Michael Frick WeberTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 7:44am PDT

Cool . . . and you know what, 2 weeks would probably be better for me. And yes . . . a skype user.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 7:27am PDT

You would just log on via Skype (are you already a Skype user?). As for this week, I have to check with my crew and see if we already have something planned out. If we do, it would probably make more sense to have you guest on the following episode, which we'd be recording two weeks from now.

Michael Frick WeberTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 6:38am PDT

bummer . . . if I do go, I;m going to try and get our publisher to pay the $$$$. OK, and despite the field i work in, I'm a little technology slow . . . do you need me to meet you somewhere on thursday then or do I just log on via skype? . . . I should be good, just need to see if my son has soccer or not? And thanks again . . . we're getting some hits, but really want to up over 1,000 for each so that we can make more!! So any shares or views are greatly appreciated. Stay dry and hope it's a good day! -Frick

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 6:06am PDT

I'm not gonna pay for table at the NYC show (over $200 for one day!), and I'm down by about 200 votes with only a few days left for voting so I'm thinking that the chances of me going to the show are LLOOOOWW. I'll shoot a line to the other Sequential Underground guys and see what they think. When would be good times for you to record an episode? Recording takes about an hour. I'm pretty sure we're gonna be recording out next episode this Thursday @ around 8ish. Via Skype.

Michael Frick WeberSunday, May 15, 2011 at 6:53pm PDT

Sounds cool . . . I was just thinking about a mention on your facebook or twitter . . . but would be more than happy to do more! Let me know what you need. And what did you think, are you going to the NYC indie show?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2011 at 5:58am PDT

I think the best way to share the video(s) via the AudioShocker would be through the Sequential Underground podcast, our indie comics creation show. If you're interested, you're welcome to join us on the show to talk about genesis of the video series and how you're using them to promote your own comics. And on that show, we don't do interviews so much as conversations, so we'd all be chiming in with our related experiences promoting our own comics, etc. Thoughts?

Michael Frick WeberSaturday, May 14, 2011 at 6:30pm PDT

Nick, Many thanks for "liking" and checking out our videos . . . wondering what you thought of them . . . and if you like them, and maybe they are "audio shocker worthy" . . . would you mind sharing them with your fans and network . . . we're trying to build some hits . . . that we we can create some more. Hope you're well, and how did you make out for the indy shot in NYC? -Frick

Hey Rob, I know this must have been a crazy weekend for you... There's been a lot of attacks on you, and that got me wondering -- do you have any interest in coming on my podcast and giving your side of the story? You don't even have talk about art, you could just talk about the experience of this weekend if you want. Here's a link to my site: http://www.audioshocker.com/ Anyway, I'll shoot you an email about this too just in case this message gets lost in a swarm of other ones. Nick

I didn't start this discussion so we could get hung-up on the particulars of advertising, but here's something else that those of you planning on the divided-page ad should consider: The program booklet specs are 8.5" x 5.5". That's half of a letter-size page (fold it in half to see the size). If eight people each take a square, your individual sections will be considerably SMALLER than business card size. As Barry noted earlier, a business card measures 2" x 3.5". The largest your individual mini-ads might end up is 1.75" x 2.25". That's your territory, and it's not much. I'm not interested in a mini-ad, which I doubt will attract much attention and will compete for the attention they get. I'm also at least a little disheartened by the lack of community that equates to. Regardless, if I pursue it, it'll be on another thread. I'll continue on this one after I've secured a table.

Shawn AtkinsSaturday, January 15, 2011 at 5:46am PST

i'll wait for the vote

Shawn AtkinsSaturday, January 15, 2011 at 5:46am PST

cool

Brian BabyokSaturday, January 15, 2011 at 5:42am PST

How about this... I'll head up the SPACE Ad that is equal squares on a page and if there are people that still want to do a one image group ad, then I'll let Marcel head that one up.

Chris MaverickFriday, January 14, 2011 at 8:33pm PST

I'd be up for either really.

Scott HedlundFriday, January 14, 2011 at 8:32pm PST

Well, like everything I do, I sat around and considered the pros and cons of a one image group ad, and I still can't get behind it. I mean no ill will toward anyone who does contribute to the ad, or the art that will portray it (because Shawn's stuff kicks ass!), it's not the way I would go. The original idea that Brian and I talked about was to purchase a full page ad for $50 and then divide it up equally amongst the attenders in our P.I.C.S. group. Sharing the space equally gives each artist a small piece of paper real estate to best represent themselves as they see fit. The ad would be a simple way to get some eyeballs looking at each of our creations for a much smaller amount of money. (a quarter page is the cheapest option at $16) It was something to consider. Thanks for hearing out my opinions. And good luck on what you come up with, I'm sure it will look great!

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, January 13, 2011 at 11:46am PST

After re-reading the last few entries, I just want to assure that this isn't/wasn't intended as an intrusion upon Brian & Scott's original plan for a full-page WEIRDLINGS ad. I'm unclear if you two were amending your original plan to include the rest of us, and if that's the case, you should both be satisfied with the end result. If you go ahead with your original plan, we could still have an additional ad as we're discussing (which I'd still be comfortable with Brian coordinating). That gives you each the option of your original ad, the group ad, or both. Ideally, everyone wins.

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, January 13, 2011 at 9:12am PST

Well....okay. In defense of the mega-image method: Yes, I'd considered the one-person's-art-representing-the-group aspect. But it comes down to this -- I'd rather have ONE image represent us, even if it's not mine, than a bunch of tiny images crowding the page. One sharp visual is going to make much more of an impact than a bunch of smaller drawings, no matter how impressive some of them might be. And frankly, at $5 a person, what's the issue? If the majority wants to go with the business-card ad deal, I'd still put in $5 for it. Experience tells me though that fewer people will notice that, so it becomes $5 wasted. If you view advertising as merely dividing up space, then I agree with you Scott: it's like splitting a table. However, if you view this as a collaborative effort, then I disagree. If you're collaborating with a partner, you truly share space. Shawn had a good idea, and he was an early responder, so that's why he got the nod. No one here HAS to contribute to the ad - if you see the people included in this thread, a number of people haven't expressed interest one way or another - and that's okay. And people can take out other ads. I encourage that! I believe what's already been proposed is still the best way to go. It will be determined by who sends me their information who's still involved -- which I hope is still most of you. I'd love to see you in this as well Scott, but I understand if you don't want to.

Scott HedlundThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:55am PST

Before we go designing anything, I feel I should throw in my 2 cents on the ad. I have a couple criticisms about doing an ad with one image and a list of names. For one thing, it's one person's art. What if the viewer doesn't like that person's art and then bypasses the whole group? Why bank on one person to speak for a group of able bodies and talented folks? The other thing is the that a list of names and websites is totally unappealing to me. I'm a visual guy and would rather see a snippet of each person art/comic and then decide if I'm going to check it out. I see a list of websites and I'm going to pass it up. Why should I visit every site to figure out what I like? When I go to a new comic site and see a link for another comic, I click on it because of the art in the icon. Same with an ad in a program guide. Splitting adspace should be like splitting a table. One person takes one half, the other person takes half. Spreading each individuals stuff all over the table loses it's biggest strength, the independent voice. Alright, so there's my 2 cents (yeah...more like 5 cents!) I'm just looking to maximize our return on investment.

Shawn AtkinsThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:52am PST

can do marcel

Nick MarinoThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:40am PST

And Dan. XD

Dan GreenwaldThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:38am PST

I'm definitely going.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:37am PST

Me, Tom Scioli, Scott, Shawn, and Nate McDonough are going for sure. I think everyone else is a maybe, right?

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, January 13, 2011 at 8:31am PST

Let me propose this *clears throat*: Brian, we'll let you coordinate the group ad, and we'll go with my basic layout. (We're a team-up!) Brian, you can let us know how and by when you'd like us all to pay you. Shawn, can you find the time to work up a Pittsburgh-themed drawing, like you mentioned? It would be best if you can do this fairly quickly, then we can reserve the spot, so by Sunday, if possible. Everyone else who's interested in participating on the ad, go look at my mock-up (six messages above) and what info is needed, then send me a SEPARATE MESSAGE OUTSIDE OF THIS THREAD with your info. Please put "SPACE AD" in the subject line. And remember, you don't have to be GOING to SPACE to throw in on this ad...but you do have to pay Brian! 8^) Okay. Next up: Who's Going for sure...? 8^D

Kristoffer A. SmithThursday, January 13, 2011 at 3:18am PST

i might be down to split a table. still getting everything together i was thinking of giving them a call.

Chris MaverickWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 9:53pm PST

so just talked to Max about SPACE and he has a music gig that weekend so he's out, which means that if I go, I'd love to be able to split a table with someone if anyone has room.

Brian BabyokWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 8:38am PST

Scott has a table at SPACE, he and I are going in on the Ad together for Weirdlings. I would be more than happy to get the Ad and coordinate it. Marcel, much love back at you as well. I like your layout and agree that it would work with Shawn's idea of a monster or something along those lines. For the record, I think what best represents us is not our geographic location but our love of comics. Personally I don't think it should scream Pittsburgh at all, it should scream COMICS! If you moved to Maryland, our connection would be comics and I would still consider you part of this comic circle. (Not the FB page but the larger community). At this point though I am just arguing the semantics of "Pittsburgh" but I think we agree on the fact that it should represent our community of comic book writers and artists. So I'm cool with whatever everyone else agrees with.

Chris MaverickWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 8:28am PST

I also kind of like the idea of having something oriented towards the "Pittsburgh Indy Comic Society" as opposed to the collection of business cards. A couple reasons. For one, it implies we're some kind of official group and not just a facebook page (which we are, but they don't have to know it) and it kind of gives the feel of a close knit comic community in Pittsburgh, which there kinda is. We could go with a drawing, or I could go out and take a photo of something that we all feel is very "pittsburgh"

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 8:23am PST

(And yes, this was set-up in color, but it can be converted to B&W easily enough...and also be re-purposed, as-is!)

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 8:18am PST

At this stage, the most important thing to do is determine who will be going where, so we can work from that. As far as a SPACE ad goes, I think it's a good idea, but let's not put the promotions ahead of the products. Also...who's gonna be in charge of it? 8^) Brian and Barry, I love your enthusiasm for the ad (and I'd nominate Brian to handle this, but it makes more sense for someone who's getting a table to be responsible for it), but I don't feel that layout is inclusive enough of our talents as a group. It's disconnected (even though it ironically resembles a comics page layout!), and reminds me of the back pages of the old Comics Buyer's Guide. You know...the ads we all skipped over! I do love you guys, I swear I do! Stay with me; I'm going somewhere with this. I'm attaching a mock-up of something closer to what I think best represents us. Simply put, it needs to scream PITTSBURGH! It should look balanced, and it should be fun! Shawn, I like your idea of a giant monster attacking the city, with large ketchup bottles, etc. present. We could swap out the photo in the mock-up with a drawing easily. Also, we could either keep the same font for all of our info on the right side of the ad, or (tastefully!) use our own fonts/logos. There's room for improvement. Thoughts...? 8^)

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 7:53am PST

that is true dan

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 7:19am PST

We could probably do both. Nothing wrong with more exposure.

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 7:10am PST

just a idea

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 7:10am PST

i thought of something for the flyer how about old giant monster movie (course the monster should be pgh related a steel man or kethup ) and we have a list of people at the bottom

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 6:52am PST

@Barry - That's kind of the idea behind Sequential Underground, the group that Nick, Shawn & I started after last year's SPACE. http://sequentialunderground.wordpress.com/about/ @Brian - I like the layout.

Brian BabyokWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 6:44am PST

Here is a mock up that Scott and I came up with using just the 7 of us that replied. Comments and suggestions welcome. The ad for Weirdlings was just a quick and dirty and does not reflect the actual ad to be used. Ad is supposed to be black and white and it's comic book sized (almost) dimensions shown in mock up accurate.

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 11:41pm PST

I think that's a good idea, in-and-of itself, but I think we should take things one step at a time. We all have a million-and-two blogs/websites/facebook pages and groups/drunk duck pages, etc. to keep track of as it is. I don't see a need to throw another into the mix just yet. Something simple that says we're all from Pittsburgh, without making it too formal, will probably do the trick. Let's focus on our SPACE roster first, then pick someone to be in charge of the ad, then go from there. Cool? And I haven't forgotten about the Pgh. Comicon. Let's keep talking about that too.

Barry Phinmagic LinckTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 10:56pm PST

Should we have a PGH Indy Comic Society Web Page and/or Blog? Something to post to and has all our banner links on it? Sort of like this: http://mediocremilitia.zsfstudios.com/

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 10:42pm PST

Again, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, since we need to determine who's going to SPACE for sure, then who would be in charge of securing a full-page ad -- but in regards to the ad, I'd like to make a suggestion to everyone going in on it: Rather than a full-page ad sectioned off into smaller ads with a bunch of competing logos, which I think would start looking really messy really quickly, I propose a Pittsburgh-themed ad, that includes our respective creative names (Strumhaus, Seraphic Vision, Ricochet Graphics, etc.) in a more uniform way. Since the point of joining together is strength in numbers, I think any potential ads we do should reflect this theme. And it'll just look more professional.

Barry Phinmagic LinckTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 10:30pm PST

Well, if we have 9, we can do 2.8 x 3.6 inches. 12 up would be 2 x 3.5 (Bus card size). I couldn't fit 10 up.

Jason R BenderTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 9:19pm PST

Thanks Kris.

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:48pm PST

Brian posted a link a few msg's back...

Jason R BenderTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:46pm PST

@the risk of sounding stupid, what is space? I have not read all the comments on this thread yet, not have I been with much of reality lately with all the work on tweaking my Thesis for an upcoming fest, and the hellish existence that is Fedex Kinko's (I'm sure a few of you can appreciate that)... but what is Space?

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:42pm PST

im trying to make it to space. still need to work out a room and transportation more than likely ill be there... im in on an ad

Seth FronzoliTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:41pm PST

I'm down...Let's do this thing!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:36pm PST

count me in on an ad

Chris MaverickTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:34pm PST

ok... well, I'd certainly be up for the ad. I might go to the show too. Depending on whether max wants to go, how much a room is, how my new job is going, and if I've got a vehicle after today's car wreck.

Brian BabyokTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:30pm PST

@Kristoffer, yes, that's the one! @Mav, SPACE is March 19 and 20.

Chris MaverickTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:25pm PST

ooh... I have $5. When is the space show again? I wonder if I can go or not.

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:25pm PST

are you guys referring to the space show in columbus?

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 4:25pm PST

Same here!

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 3:46pm PST

That's a great idea, count me in.

Barry Phinmagic LinckTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 3:46pm PST

Sounds like a plan, Brian.

Brian BabyokTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 3:43pm PST

I was thinking about driving in for the day to SPACE, check out the goods and stay for dinner with those with tables. Tangentially but related to what Marcel was saying earlier in this thread, a Full Page ad in the SPACE program book is $50. If we divide the page into 10 spots for all of us here with links to websites, etc. then WE can get a full page for $5 a piece. Thoughts?

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 11:35am PST

got it thanks :)

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 11:33am PST

They're pretty good about email. I sent them a message and Renee got back to me the very next day.

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 10:26am PST

P.S. has anyone been able to get in touch with PGH Comicon everythime i call i dont get an answer and the answeering machine cuts off b4 i can leave a msg? ughh!

Marcel Lamont WalkerMonday, January 10, 2011 at 3:50pm PST

PITT: Kris, if they haven't already assigned you a table spot (and who knows, even if they have), you might have luck asking them about moving you over to where most of the rest of us will be sitting. SPACE: I'll be in touch with some of you about this!

Kristoffer A. SmithMonday, January 10, 2011 at 2:49pm PST

I'm late to this convo, been offline... i know ill be at the Pitt show this year I already reserved a table but didnt think to ask for it near the local group... Pgh is always a risky show but fun and its always great to see the faces. i know ill have a load of new stuff this year... plus ill be doing some other shows hopefully space so i look forward to it!

Barry Phinmagic LinckSunday, January 9, 2011 at 8:22pm PST

The more the cheaper, I say! I can pair down my display to half a table if we need. Having the whole area cornered with all of us will be pretty freaking sweet. Plus my space will be open of Friday, I can't come on Friday.

Jason R BenderSunday, January 9, 2011 at 4:05pm PST

Shawn, I don't know if you are up for it, but if you wanna cut costs, and don't mind a few others, you can crash at my table! I don't have much of anything, but what is going into your anthology, and my Thesis/Festival film which I may or may not sell/give away, but I am trying to get the word out about my abilities and such, as well as Joe and I are going to advertise and get the word out about our new Internet series Jacob, a neo-western so, we are not going to have a ton on the table. So I figure if Barry and you and Joe and I want to split the table into thirds, with Joe and I occupying one third and you and Barry your own, you are more than welcome to split this 4 ways with us... Joe and I have no probs with that...

Shawn AtkinsSunday, January 9, 2011 at 1:16pm PST

word let me know whats up nick

Nick MarinoSunday, January 9, 2011 at 12:34pm PST

Pitt: I'm not setting up at the Pitt Con this year. It's not cost effective for me. Granted, it's not like I've ever done a full weekend at the show (only did one day last year), but the cost of table + cost of transportation + comics and food I buy at the con - $$$ I can reasonably expect to make = me in the hole. I don't mind being in the hole if I get a lot of new readers or make lots of new connections or have other similar opportunities, but that's not gonna happen for me in Monroeville. SPACE: I'll end up in the hole here too BUT I'll make lots of new connections and hopefully land new readers, plus SPACE gets some decent indie press coverage. I already have my table reserved here. If we're trying to set up a Pittsburgh block, we need to talk to Jim, Ed, Tom, and Pat because that's exactly what they did at the 2010 show. Also, whoever's going to SPACE, we need to talk about hotel rooms!!!

Dan GreenwaldSunday, January 9, 2011 at 11:25am PST

I haven't gotten my table for SPACE yet, but I'll be doing that soon. It was a fun show and had a great crowd, one VERY different from your typical Comicon attendees.

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, January 9, 2011 at 10:55am PST

P.C.C.: I've found that the Comicon people are pretty good about accommodating reasonable requests, Dave. So if you're interested in joining us (and I hope you are!), I'd suggest dropping them a line and ask if they can place you in the aisle where Chris Maverick is going to be. (I'll likely reserve my table soon, so I can do the same, and mention you both.) SPACE: Never done it, never been there, am SERIOUSLY thinking about doing it this year. Knowing that some of you are going is helping in the decision making process.

Dave WachterSunday, January 9, 2011 at 10:50am PST

I sent my application and $ in back in December, so I have no idea where they'll put me. Probably in no man's land by the bathrooms again. I haven't heard anything back except that the check was cashed, I'm not listed on their antique website yet.

Mikey WoodSunday, January 9, 2011 at 10:42am PST

I'd love to try SPACE out again. I went twice and had so-so results (people said HATE YOUR FRIENDS was 'too mainstream'. WHAAAAT?) but it sounds like the crowd has changed a bit. Pittsburgh, while it is my "home" con and it's like family to me, has been a bust these last 2 years. I'll still go, for sure, but I need some new stuff.

Scott HedlundSunday, January 9, 2011 at 10:36am PST

I got a table for SPACE. I asked for a spot next to Nick or DanG, but didn't know for sure who was going.

Shawn AtkinsSunday, January 9, 2011 at 10:15am PST

yeah already got my table next to nick

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, January 9, 2011 at 9:55am PST

I was offline for a bit, so it's good to see everyone talking! Mav (why I slipped before and typed "Chris" is beyond me!), when I register for a table, I'll request moving our booth towards your end of the hall. That seems like a good spot anyway. I totally understand those who choose not to set up because of the expense, but I like seeing some of you discussing sharing table/booth costs. If you go ahead with this, keep in mind moving up toward our potential group. Also, anyone not setting up, consider having some of us who are going sell some of your product for you. I didn't want to get too far off topic, but since it was mentioned, has anyone here made plans for attending/setting up at SPACE, March 19th & 20th?

Jason R BenderSunday, January 9, 2011 at 9:01am PST

@Barry let me know man! There will be you me, and my bud Joe, so it should be even cheaper. roughly about $80 a person to the 90 for 2...

Jon TowersSunday, January 9, 2011 at 8:10am PST

I am up in the air on this topic right now. I think I am going to have new stuff ready, but it is still too many clams. I will split a table if anyone is interested. Shawn?

Scott HedlundSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 8:06pm PST

At this point, I won't be getting a table at Pittsburgh comicon. The cost is too high vs the rate of return. If I had a new book out by then I would consider it. As it stands right now, I'm more interested in throwing my support to Indy featured shows like SPACE and PIX. I will however be out to support my comic brothas and sistas sometime during the weekend.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 6:56pm PST

I'm actually not getting a table this year, but I will be at the show representing the Comic Book Pitt podcast as a media guest. I'll be working with Mike Sorg of The Wrestling Mayhem Show, talking with guests, conducting interviews with creators, etc. , so beware! I'll be expecting some face time with each and every one of you. ;)

Barry Phinmagic LinckSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 4:57pm PST

Yeah, Pretty steep $$ Might be sharing space with Jason Bender.

Chris MaverickSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 3:58pm PST

Scott, Nick, Shawn and I were all right next to each other last year. So if there's someway to request the same spots we could just try to get Marcel and whoever else is interested moved over near us.

Nate JohnsonSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 3:56pm PST

i will be in the same spot as last year , booths # s061 , s062 & s071 on your con map . check it out here : http://www.pittsburghcomicon.com/Forms_2011/conmap11.pdf

Shawn AtkinsSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 2:24pm PST

i thinking of setting up this year but i also would like to share the table cause they are getting to expensive for my blood

Marcel Lamont WalkerSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 1:41pm PST

Chris, Wayne told me about your talk, and that's what sparked this! And yes, let's spread the word!

Chris MaverickSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 1:15pm PST

I was just saying to Wayne that we should bring that up on the Indy group. I'm in.

Al DorantesSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 1:06pm PST

i'm gonna be in my same spot as always . . . see ya in april . . . al

Marcel Lamont WalkerSaturday, January 8, 2011 at 1:00pm PST

Friends - It was suggested during last year's Pittsburgh Comicon that those of us who elect to set-up again in 2011 should try to get tables and booths gathered in the same area of the convention hall. I thought it was a great idea then and now. Frankly, I'm tired of leaving my table and getting distracted while tracking down my comrades. It would be much easier to support one-another if we gather our resources and stake out a spot. And wherever we end up, that's where the party is gonna be...wouldn't you all agree? 8^) So I just wanted to get an idea of who is thinking of setting up again this year (April 15th - 17th). I haven't reserved a table yet (I had to get past the holidays first!), but I will, soon. I figure the earlier we set this in motion, the easier it will be for the Comicon staff to accommodate us. This is an informal request, so don't feel like you HAVE to join in. I'll track you down wherever you set-up! But there's strength in numbers, and we all know enough people in common...it just makes sense. So, who's in?

Lizzee Monster-Mash Solomon, Nick Marino
Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, March 23, 2012 at 7:20am PDT

Hahahaha, yeah I could imagine. That place has some strange characters that hang out in the front... You didn't miss much.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 23, 2012 at 7:03am PDT

I thought there was gonna be a record scratch and the music was gonna stop when I walked in the door. It was almost that awkward. Hahaha Good seein you too :)

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, March 23, 2012 at 6:39am PDT

It was good seeing you last night tho!

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, March 23, 2012 at 6:38am PDT

The only person I recognized was Danny Mac and his gf Gunner

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, March 23, 2012 at 6:38am PDT

It's cool dude - I was like "where's Nick??"

Nick MarinoThursday, March 22, 2012 at 6:59pm PDT

Yo I totally bailed on Rock Room. Walked in didn't see anyone!

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:41am PST

Wait, so did she ditch you too and just send the energy guy?

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, February 10, 2012 at 10:31pm PST

Omg, yes it was so weird dude, very put off by that. It was fucked. Thanks for the warning!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:11pm PST

Hey, did you set up a meeting with that Michelle woman from the Artist's Meetup? I thought I saw you make one with her. The reason I ask is because Shawn set one up with her too, about both the magazine and the energy company job she talked about. Turns out the energy company thing is a pyramid scheme, so watch out! I don't know if the magazine thing is more legit... she cancelled her meeting with Shawn BUT sent her friend to talk to him about the energy company pyramid scheme. Just wanted to pass along a warning!!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 15, 2011 at 11:39am PDT

I just met this artist at nycc and her minicomic totally blew me away. I think you'd really dig it. Her site is jennapalazzo.com

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonFriday, April 1, 2011 at 1:44pm PDT

Kewl. I'm lizzee@lizzeesolomon.com.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2011 at 1:33pm PDT

GREAT! If you wanna exchange emails, I can send you some plot info and describe my comics working style. I'm nickmarino@gmail.com

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonThursday, March 31, 2011 at 12:49pm PDT

I've done a few collab things in the past, mostly informal stuff, but I'm interested in what you're talking about. Those muffbots are pretty cute and weird. I enjoy drawing penises and vaginas, so any opportunity to do so would be welcome by me. Let's talk more about it sometime!

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonThursday, March 31, 2011 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick,

hey lizzie -- do you ever do comics collaborations? the reason i'm asking is because i was really impressed with your stuff that i saw at SPACE. in particular, your subject matter. my co-writer and i have been developing a story for a few years now with the working title "Isaac Assmuff present... Muffbot 2k12" and i've been looking for an artist who might be interested in collaborating with us. i'm trying to find an artist who's not afraid of drawing bizarre/extreme/sexual images (which is pretty fucking hard for me to find). anyway, here's my old sketch of the muffbots http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=506447612809&set=a.504902594039.2005291.4801997 i'm not gonna get too into the plot right now, but i'd be glad to give you a run down of where the story's going if it's something you're interested in talking about some more. we're planning on running it as a webcomic and then selling printed collections, and said webcomic wouldn't even begin until the mid-to-late fall of this year... so i'm reaching out to you pretty early. thx, nick

Don't worry we'll take lots of pictures. Halima in a saree is something I want to see, and she wants to see me in a traditional kurta and salwar. Anyway, other updates: We're in the midst of helping her prepare for her exams when she gets there. She's got three exams to take and I want to make sure she's well prepared for them. She plans to do them in September. She will be talking to her psychiatrist tomorrow and attending a medical board at a later date who will assess if she is fit to go back (merely a formality but has to be done). I am going with her as I need to ask the psychiatrist a few questions, especially about sleep. She's not been sleeping too well, and I am worried that with jet lag it would get really bad in the US. It is weird that the doctors here seem to dismiss the problem so easily. She's been telling them that she can't sleep and they did was give her some sleeping pills without looking at what is the root cause of the sleep disorders. Scary. I was supposed to ask her supervisor if she can quit her job earlier than mid august, but her supervisor is not too comfortable with talking to non-lab staff it seems. Anyway they let her leave at end July, so I guess it's a good compromise. I'll meet you guys in September. I am coming there on the 31st of August to make sure she's settled in well, and to help her study for her exams. This would be my first time in the States, a country I thought I would never go to.

that's way decent! while i might not be attending space any more i might like to throw in on one of those 3.3369's, was it a 10 dollar share?

Chris MaverickFriday, January 28, 2011 at 7:26am PST

yep... I'm in. Which reminds me, I need to get a table for space still. Or is anyone interested in splitting?

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, January 28, 2011 at 7:13am PST

So, I have something to show you all...! Thanks to the talented hands and nimble fingers of Shawn, we have artwork for the ad! I have it set-up with text and placeholders, so you can see what we've got. (And no, I'm not taking all six spaces -- there's five for you guys!) I'm in, Dawn and Shawn are each getting spots. Dan & Mav, are you guys still on board? Regardless of who's in or not, gimme some feedback. I think this looks pretty snazzy! (Great job Shawn!)

Nick MarinoFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:16am PST

i'm gonna pass on the ad :( but good luck with it!!!

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, January 14, 2011 at 5:14am PST

Hey Gang - Just wanted to see if you're interested in us going ahead with a full page ad in the SPACE book. This is being sent to the people who've expressed the most interest in going and procuring a full-page Pittsburgh-themed ad. I'll check later and see if there's still ad space available. Shawn, would you still have time to pull something together over the weekend? - M!

The day and time of the swap has not changed, but the location has changed to the Toonseum. Executive Director Joe Wos generously offered to host this year's swap and we'd be crazy to say no. So we're getting a two-for-one deal; swapping comics and getting to hang out in one of the coolest places in Pittsburgh. If you haven't had the chance to visit the Toonseum, you're in for a treat.

Nick, we usually decide ahead of time, and other times we try to cater to our guests tastes. So, if we had you on the show our theme would probably be "african american marvel characters" or "rob liefeld is the savior of the '90s" something along those lines. :)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2011 at 1:57pm PST

Link, do you guys decide what you're gonna talk about ahead of time or just wing it?

@DanG, maybe someday when we're really ambitious and/or drunk we'll give that a whirl. @Everyone, We'd love to have any of you guys on the show sometime in the future if you're game though. See how I'm stealing DanG's thunder? :)

Kristoffer A. SmithMonday, January 24, 2011 at 11:50am PST

hey im on my way out now im goona stop by kiva, phantom and the art store... gimme a call 412.400.9302

Nick MarinoMonday, January 24, 2011 at 8:30am PST

sounds good to me

Kristoffer A. SmithMonday, January 24, 2011 at 8:07am PST

yup. pam grier is a great reference. and i agree theres not enoguh coll african american chicks (superhero types) in comics. i made her features ethnic. depending on whether the book is color or b/w i think her skin tone can vary based on lighting so she's not pulled to much in either direction.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 24, 2011 at 7:37am PST

honestly, shawn and i never really discussed it. our main inspiration for her is pam grier and i guess pam's a little bit lighter since she's black and indian... but in my opinion, i think you should draw her however you see her yourself. me personally, if i was drawing her, i'd draw her darker and not mixed because that's how i picture her, but i shawn and i aren't tied down to one interpretation. sorry if we confused you about that. in particular, we kinda play fast and loose with the logic of her hair, cause she'll have it up in a bun and BLAM have it shoot out into a fro, and i know the chances of that happening are pretty low if she's doesn't have mixed hair, but at the same time, we're not trying to get too realistic with this. the reason shawn and i developed pepper originally is because he got a table at the anime con last year and he was joking about how there were practically no black people in anime movies and manga book. and i was like well what if we made a character that black girls could cosplay as? especially a character in the type of book we could sell at anime shows. so that's kinda where she came from. i dunno if that helps or not... i guess basically what i'm saying is that i think it'd be awesome if pepper was the type of character that black female comics fans could look at and think "she so awesome. i wanna dress up like her" etc because there are so few comics characters that black girls can cosplay as w/out wigs and other stuff (storm with the long straight hair and blue eyes, vixen is light and has straight hair even though she's from africa), and to top it off there aren't many kickass specifically african-american women superheroes, like the two i just named are both african. hope all that ranting helps!

Kristoffer A. SmithMonday, January 24, 2011 at 6:57am PST

dude is pepper light skinned as if shes hispanic or of some mixed ethnicity or is she a darker chic more obviously black?

Nick MarinoSunday, January 23, 2011 at 3:36pm PST

sounds good. i wanna hit up that art store on craig tomorrow too...

Kristoffer A. SmithSunday, January 23, 2011 at 2:59pm PST

monday could work out really well for both shawn and i... 10 or 11 is okay for me but it's a little early for shawn. we're both gonna be down in oakland on monday evening for that library thing @ 6:30... shawn's suggestion was meeting up around 2 or 3, if that's not too late for you but i def understand if that is. anyway, if that's no good lemme know and we'll figure out something for earlier. no biggie.

Kristoffer A. SmithSaturday, January 22, 2011 at 9:13am PST

Kristoffer A. SmithThursday, January 13, 2011 at 11:24pm PST

i got the goods... theres just a something dif every 5 mins thats a matter of universal security that takes my attention away from what im trying to do so everything takes longer...

sounds awesome. do you need anything else from shawn and i, or do you feel like you have enough to dive in?

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 5:28pm PST

def. puttign together promo and pr stuff tonight but i can spare a full day this week. and maybe 2 or 3 next week. my the end of jan we'd have enough for a submission...

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 12:14pm PST

hey what's up I just remembered you were busy up through the 10th so i figured it'd hit you up now and see if there's a good time to talk Pepper Jones with you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 5, 2011 at 9:47am PST

i forgot she had one! never listened to it, but you should totally be on it. i'm guessing she had nothing to do with the Bluewater book, though.

Kristoffer A. SmithTuesday, January 4, 2011 at 4:23pm PST

she's great you listen to her radio show? im trying to get on it :)

Nick MarinoSunday, January 2, 2011 at 11:15am PST

okay groovy. how's rosie?

Kristoffer A. SmithSunday, January 2, 2011 at 10:20am PST

super busy til jan 10th after that ill have some time to invest into page art and characters. ttysoon

Nick MarinoMonday, December 20, 2010 at 5:11pm PST

yeah man i saw your status about previews. that's awesome!!! congrats. my digits are 484-798-7753... but i think you said you're only using a landline right now... if so, my 412 number is... hmm i gotta go look it up -- it's 412-475-8482. that just redirects to my cell. i'll email you all the scripts i have right now. the first three acts are done, and the last two are plotted. the dialogue is loose in most places and not final. that's cool you took the rosie gig but it still pisses me off when i think of them not paying you!!!

Kristoffer A. SmithMonday, December 20, 2010 at 4:44pm PST

I know right! i took the rosie gig, half way done now, doing most of the art got a buddie to do the flats for me to increase work pace. I may need some of the files again, i have the character sketches but if you could send me the script, i started some rough character sketches for the story and then got pulled back into my projects ughhk! wish i had time to just do whatever i want but the bluwater books are big and worth getting my name out there... so when i do fresh stuff people already know to ecpect quality, anyways bla blah blah, im at the library and check the net once a week, be back in the new year... ttysoon if you could shoot me your number again or gimme a call ill can keep you updated. 2011 new site, mailing list and a shit load of new books, p,s, I was in previews this month!

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 18, 2010 at 2:32pm PST

what's up mannnn! just saying hi, seeing how your month of internet exile is going. you ever decide to do the Rosie issue for Bluewater? they better be paying you this time!

Hey All -- let me get right to it: First THANK YOU to everyone who has sent me photos and notes about/for Wayne. Wait 'til you see how they all get used, especially the BIG gift I'm giving him on everyone's behalf. Bring hankies...trust me! Second - ARRIVAL TIME: I'm moving up the arrival time to between 5:45-6:15PM. The plan will be to get Wayne there at 6:30PM. I'll likely need a couple of people to arrive early (5PM) to help me set up. (Volunteers?) Third - MUSIC: WAYNE DOESN'T KNOW THIS, but we'll have music provided by DJ EZ Lou! The party will "officially" end around 9:15PM, to allow for The Bessemers to play at 10PM. Attendees can stay, and I'm told won't have to pay a cover for the band, although that would be appreciated. Fourth - GIFT SUGGESTIONS: I'm going to post some of these on the Secret Event Wall. Wayne's not looking for or expecting gifts, and NO ONE HAS TO BRING A GIFT. As my mom would say, YOU ARE THE BIGGEST GIFT! However, at the risk of impropriety, I am accepting donations toward the cause! *hint-hint* Fifth - DRINKS & FOOD: WAYNE DOESN'T KNOW THIS, but there will be appetizers, soft drinks and of course Birthday cake provided! HAMBONES has a CASH BAR AND FULL MENU with some Vegetarian options. Party guests are encouraged to come hungry, order off the menu and keep the servers and bartenders busy. The staff willl appreciate it! 8^D That's all for now. Expect more soon. (And I apologize in advance for any duplicate messages I send from the "Open" Event Page, to keep Wayne in the dark!) - Marcel (Showrunner to the Stars!) PS: Ask me ANY questions. Don't be shy!

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, June 2, 2011 at 8:13am PDT

Hey All - I know you're all busy, and I hate to be a pest, but there's one thing I would like for you to do for me, as soon as possible: Please email me your HAPPY BIRTHDAY WAYNE photo by TUESDAY, JUNE 7th. I was hoping to have more of them by now, and while we're off to a good start, we need a LOT more. If you go to the event page, there are screen-captures of the photobook these will be used in, so you can see exactly what is planned. This book has to be sent to print in just over a week, and I also need time to assemble it -- so the earlier you can get me a picture, the better. I hate to rush, and I KNOW you're all busy folks. But it's for Wayne, so I know you can make time! (And I promise, it'll be the coolest darn thing you've ever seen!) Thank you! - MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, May 19, 2011 at 7:33pm PDT

So, I just had a brilliant idea, and here's what I need you to do: Take a picture of yourself holding a handwritten sign that says "Happy Birthday, Wayne!" and email it to me. That's it. I'm going to post an example photo of myself in just a couple of minutes on the SECRET Event Page, and I'd like as many of you as possible to participate. This will be used for several things related to his birthday, so the more of us that join in, the more fun the end result! Send these to me RIGHT AWAY (over the next week) if you can, so we can get started. And remember, if you have any old photos of Wayne, we still need those as well. Thank you -- you're all the BEST! - Marcel

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, May 15, 2011 at 11:16am PDT

Hello Everyone! With Wayne's party just over a month away, I'm going to apologize now for all of the messages you're likely to receive from me as we gear up for it. I'll try to pace myself though, so it doesn't get too crazy -- but let's jump right in now! Whether you can attend or not, there are a couple of things it would be great for you to contribute: PHOTOS and QUOTES. Please EMAIL PHOTOS YOU MAY HAVE OF WAYNE, including the year it was taken (if you know, or a best guess if you don't), who else is in it, and where it was taken. These will be used for a slide show and a photo-memory book he'll be presented with. Also, it would be great if everyone would WRITE SOMETHING ABOUT WAYNE. It can be whatever you want and however long you want it to be. (One or two paragraphs would be terrific!) Write about how you met, what you think makes him unique, how long you've known each other, any special memories or moments, etc.. Have fun with it; some of these will also be used in the slide show and photo book. My email address is MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com. Please put "WAYNE PHOTOS" or "WAYNE QUOTES" in the subject line of your messages. There is no deadline, but the sooner you can send photos, the awesomer it would be! Thanks all. Any questions, contact me. Everything you do is appreciated! - Marcel PS: Have you RSVP'd yet...? 8^)

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, April 21, 2011 at 7:57pm PDT

Everyone - Since Wayne knows there's a party coming... 1.) I'm creating a SECOND PARTY EVENT that Wayne will have access to...but as far as he will know, it's what everyone has been replying to ALREADY. When you see this other party (likely just called WAYNE'S 50th BIRTHDAY!), remember, that's what he'll see. If you're already planning to attend, PLEASE REPLY THERE RIGHT AWAY. If you haven't replied yet, whenever you do PLEASE REPLY TO BOTH. 2.) He's gonna have some ideas for what he wants. Some of this is already in motion, but beyond that -- I'M your main contact! ;^) Trust me, organizing things and controlling others' lives is what I do best! If you're not sure what he knows and doesn't know, just reach out to me. I'm putting my contact info on both pages. To recap: Wayne knows there's a birthday party coming. Two party Events on facebook, both for the same party. Wayne can access one Event; the other is for our secret stuff. Marcel is your primary contact! Cool? Cool! Thanks. You're all the greatest! 8^) - Marcel

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, April 21, 2011 at 12:40pm PDT

All - So, our guy knows about the party, gang. No one slipped up -- he just decided that he wanted exactly what we were planning to give him already. And I mean almost EXACTLY what we had planned. Which I take as a sign this was meant to be, one way or another! So he knows, but that doesn't mean he has to know EVERYTHING. I'm going to be reaching out to many of you individually so we can have mini-surprises during the course of the party. After I send this to you, I'm going to add him to the event. He'll see what's on there, so reach out to me individually about any secret stuff. Cool? My contact info is below. Thanks everyone! Marcel Walker 412.983.9255/WALK (cell) MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, February 20, 2011 at 4:12pm PST

All - We've now got a place and date to celebrate! Join us on June 25th, 2011 at HAMBONE'S in Lawrenceville for Wayne's Surprise Birthday Party! The goal (for those who didn't know there was one!) is to have 50 of the guest of honor's favoritest people in attendance...and we're well on our way to doing that! There will be more details as we get closer to the day, but here's what I can mention now: - There is parking across the street from Hambone's. - We're working on having live music for at least part of the night. - It's not a party without YOU! I now have a request of Wayne's longtime friends: if you have any special photos of Wayne taken over the years, can you please scan and send them to me? Also, please make note of when the photos were taken, and who else is in them. My email address is: MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com Are you excited? You should be. 'Cause we're gonna rock his world and shake his axis. (But not too much. He is getting up there, after all!) Thank you friends! - Marcel

oh ok, good to know. by the way, did you find a pair of pink lacey panties when you were cleaning up? i think i may have - ummm, i mean i think my friend may have left them there. yeah, my friend. that's it.

4807925@facebook.comSunday, January 22, 2006 at 1:23pm PST

Thanks for the twenty dollars, but I don't cash money with the devil. It's actually no sweat. Josh has done it a fair number of times. I just nailed it up the next morning along with the other around-the-house things to do. Forgives, Rebecca

what up Sonia, are you gonna be back for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

Nick Marino, Dawn Narwhal Beißt
Nick MarinoMonday, January 10, 2011 at 1:24pm PST

urgghhfff... i'm still deciding if i'm gonna do the Pitt Con or not. probably not, but if my buddies want to split a table with me MAYBE. i live in the city and don't own a car, so going out so the Convention Center is a pain in my butt when sales are so shitty (which they always are). but, in contradiction to all my reasons for not doing the Pitt show, i will be in Columbus in March for the SPACE expo. you ever go to that?

Dawn Narwhal BeißtMonday, January 10, 2011 at 1:15pm PST

Greetings and thanks, dude! Marcel and I are old buddies, and I like to follow his exploits, and the posts on the Pgh Comic Talk board as much as possible. I'll also be heading to Pitt Comicon again, in a few months. :) Varulv is a little book I'm doing, mostly for fun as it's a story that kinda has been lingering in my head for a while. My claim to fame is pencilling for Sonic at Archie comics, though. Those were the good ol' times. Will I see you at Comicon? :)

Nick MarinoMonday, January 10, 2011 at 1:12pm PST

hey Dawn i see your name copied on some stuff that Marcel sends out now and then, but i never checked out your art until your comment on the 21 Artists list today. i like your stuff! so Varulv is the book you're working on right now? anything else?

You guys are brutal with that PIX date. I'm not telllllllling . . . www.Steel-Man.com

Shawn AtkinsMonday, May 23, 2011 at 8:50pm PDT

i can down for that jon and i too would like to know when pix is

Dave WachterMonday, May 23, 2011 at 8:23pm PDT

I'd be up for either or both of these, but I'm leaving for Heroes Con that day. And I would also like to know a date for PIX if there is one, time is quickly ticking away.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, May 23, 2011 at 8:17pm PDT

Hey wait did someone mention PIX? Was a date announced yet?

Wayne WiseMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:29pm PDT

That would be awesome. I've been meaning to advertise this here but got behind. I've met Jodi over at Fleeting Pages and love what she's doing there. Keep me posted.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:27pm PDT

That is what I was going to ask, if you were going to be talking about Jungian archatypes and universal myth. This lwecture seems to be my cup of tea. maybe they will adjust for fire so we can attend both things.

Wayne WiseMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:23pm PDT

Not specifically. I'm talking about the history of the superhero to go along with the current show at the Toonseum and talking about them as a modern mythology. There are references to classical myth, of course, but it's not a specific comparison. I tend to focus on more of a Joseph Campbell approach to the idea of myth as something we are all still living. Comics (and any art form) is a way of recognizing the mythic elements in our current life.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:23pm PDT

....but they have not announced it yet. let me talk to horror realms.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:21pm PDT

Yeah fleeting pages is only open for a month so I guess it was difficult to get the date.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:18pm PDT

Wayne, that sounds like fun. Are you comairing classic myth to modern comics?

Wayne WiseMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:18pm PDT

It's a shame it has to be the same night. I would love to participate in this (and the people you sent this to are pretty much the same guest list I'm going to use). Is the date set in stone?

Joe WosMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:16pm PDT

Toonseum would love to be involved but it does conflict with an event. We also have pix coming up

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:14pm PDT

I understand, to me it just seems like a unique oppertunity and it is only like an hour or two depends on how many people will do it. lemme know as soon as you can. I need to get info to them for the promotion.

Wayne WiseMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:14pm PDT

Well... I haven't advertised it yet, but that conflicts with my lecture on the history and mythology of the superhero I'm doing at the exact same time that night at the Toonseum.

Jason R BenderMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:11pm PDT

It might be coinciding with me getting some new art together for my new sci-fi, horror, comedy/drama series Locust.

Jason R BenderMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:10pm PDT

I could likely be persuaded to do this!

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:07pm PDT

Hello everyone, Every year I do an event or two for a local horror convention group called Horror Realms. They have gotten together with Fleeting Pages and are hosting a “Horror Realms presents” sort of talk 6/2 at 7pm. They asked me to be a part of it. The other guy they wanted involved cannot do it. I sold the idea to them to do “Horror Realms Presents: An Evening with Pittsburgh Indy Comic Scene”. They loved the idea and kind of threw it back to me to organize. So my idea is to get a bunch of us together and just talk about our process writing / art. It would be fun to listen to everyone’s spiel even if no one else comes out to listen. I am working on getting a projector so we can get presentations together or whatever. I would love to get a cross section of all different types of genres and also a mix of some writers and artists, and because it is an indy comic idea I do not feel like we need to be locked into the Horror Realm idea. Horror Realms is great at doing like hit and run promoting and they always have two or three things cooking at a time so more opportunities might present themselves, and it would be a good opportunity to get you up in front of some people and let you talk about your work and you don’t have to pay for a table! Afterwards we can stick around and do a Q&A and then call it a night. Dan Greenwald has already mentioned he would like to record the event for his pod cast so we already have an audience. I hope I can get some volunteers, I think this will be fun. And besides that… I do not want to have to fill the whole time up all by myself. Ha-ha-ha!

I'm in... by the AM. :)

Okay, since Dave and Byron are both in, I wanted to list the new drawing order: Dan Shawn Nick Barry Byron Dave Byron, that means you're up. Obviously it's short notice, so if you want, you can pass this round to Dave. To reiterate the basic idea of Strip Club, it's supposed to be a fun exercise to see what you can do in a short amount of time. The strips should take no longer than an hour to complete, give or take.

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, April 3, 2011 at 10:31am PDT

All - So, here's the scoop: Wayne gave me some info about a new possible outlet for some of our wares. Starting at the end of April, a new pop-up bookstore will open in Shadyside/East Liberty where the BORDERS bookstore was housed. It's called FLEETING PAGES, and they are looking for material to stock the shelves. "Pop-Up" is exactly that, as they only intend to be in that space 4-6 weeks. But it's a new outlet and a different way to give a new audience exposure to our works. That's where we come in. I asked Jodi, my contact at FLEETING PAGES, if they would be interested in having comic-books and related works available. Her response: "Yes! Please share the info with all the comic book creators you know. I'd love for there to be a strong presence of the comic and graphic novel genres...This project is really going to take the masses to pull it off." So if you're interested, please go to their website, read the SUBMIT WORKS section and send them the requested info. I'd recommend only offering your most current or important work, since I expect them to be inundated with submitted works. And please mention that I referred you, so hopefully our local books will have dedicated space in their store. And pass along this message to our other local creators who weren't included (either because I don't have their contact info, or I just forgot). We don't want anyone left out! Good luck, gang! - Marcel

hey dunno if you ever listen to my podcast -- http://www.audioshocker.com/ -- but i was wondering if you'd like to guest on a future episode (probably on recording in a couple of weeks... we normally record on sundays @ 8 PM)

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 12:02pm PDT

you still in pittsburgh? i think i see you around like once every few months in the craig street vicinity. nice profile pic.

Nick Marino, Julie Campbell
Nick MarinoFriday, February 4, 2011 at 12:36pm PST

THX SO MUCH! those two are definitely good. i mean, in a perfect world, i need a picture of him from the waist up in profile, but i know that's kind of a tall order. i should probably give you an idea of the final product: http://superhaters.blogspot.com/2011/01/super-haters-53dd.html the pic's gonna get used something similar to the way the one of me is used in that comic. any chance you have a higher res version of either of the two you sent over? if so, it would be awesome if you could email them to me whenever you get chance nickmarino@gmail.com THX SO MUCH JULIE!!!!

Julie CampbellFriday, February 4, 2011 at 12:25pm PST

Oh, here's a better one. Let me know if you want any others!

Julie CampbellFriday, February 4, 2011 at 12:17pm PST

Ha, all of my pictures of him are so ridiculous, to be expected I guess. Here's a profile, but he's scrunching his neck, so not sure if it's ideal.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 4, 2011 at 9:51am PST

hey do you have any pictures of Ross? i'm making a comic strip and he's gonna be in it, but i need a picture of him in profile for it to look right, and he doesn't have very many of himself (and there are only a few online)! thx!!!!!!

Nick Marino, David DeVera
Nick MarinoThursday, April 25, 2013 at 9:25am PDT

That's super cool of your friend to be concerned, but no nothing shady... just me in desperate need of a dumpster!! Yeah, it's pretty fun here. Thx for asking :D How's the Burgh treating you?

David DeVeraWednesday, April 24, 2013 at 7:13pm PDT

No no, nothing like that! haha He thought the name Nick Marino looked familiar and when he looked you up he saw we were friends. He originally thought some one evicted you and was trying to save your stuff. Glad to hear that wasnt the case. How is Cali? You guys doing good out there?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 24, 2013 at 6:21pm PDT

Hey I was back in town to handle some business, including clearing out my storage unit. Had to toss some stuff and was on a crazy deadline, so I ended up finding the closest dumpster I could. I hope your friend's not pissed!!

David DeVeraTuesday, April 23, 2013 at 1:02pm PDT

Hopefully you get this message in time. If you need be to grab this let me know. You can call me 4129186182

David DeVeraTuesday, April 23, 2013 at 12:49pm PDT

Hey Nick! A buddy of mine in the strip district says he found a dumpster full of your stuff. Didn't you move to Cali? Did you leave stuff here?

David DeVeraTuesday, January 3, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

I just wanted to let you know that I am on the home stretch of finishing up NB#4! If you want to place an ad, save up! These have been flying off the tables at the shows man. I just wanted to give you a heads up.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 25, 2011 at 1:57pm PST

nickmarino@gmail.com lemme check on the animated-ness of it. we've been running pngs so far, and it might be the case that the javascript we use needs to always reference the same file extension.

David DeVeraTuesday, January 25, 2011 at 1:33pm PST

Nope! Not too late at all, shoot me your email address and Ill send you the photoshop file for the dimensions. Can the banner image be animated or does it have to be a still?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 25, 2011 at 1:16pm PST

hey dave, still time for me to get an ad ready for NB #3? what are the dimensions? or should i just whip something up at around the right size and just let you resize it? btw, over on audioshocker.com, we run ads in the comments, so if you want to toss me a banner image 468x68 px, we can toss it into our random ad rotation! thx.

Seth, I'll pick you up right after I get Shawn. We'll probably be there around 10:45am.

784978277@facebook.comFriday, November 5, 2010 at 4:03pm PDT

I may need a ride too! Just FYI!

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, November 5, 2010 at 11:26am PDT

That's right Jeff, you're gonna get Nick-Bombed!

1550476785@facebook.comFriday, November 5, 2010 at 11:24am PDT

Shit!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 5, 2010 at 11:10am PDT

i know what i'm doing at 2:30 tonight...

1550476785@facebook.comFriday, November 5, 2010 at 9:31am PDT

Hey guys, if for some reason you need to call me...412-638-8338.

1550476785@facebook.comTuesday, November 2, 2010 at 5:25am PDT

Ok, I can meet Dan at the Sunoco at 11am. I'll pick up Cait, Link and Nick at the Starbucks at 10:45. See ya then.

1550476785@facebook.comTuesday, November 2, 2010 at 5:23am PDT

Of course Cait can come along.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 9:20pm PDT

cool

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 8:28pm PDT

Shawn, I'll pick you up at 10:30 then.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 8:25pm PDT

im cool with that time

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 8:03pm PDT

Okay, there's a Sunoco A Plus at the corner of the Blvd/Allies and Craft Ave where we can meet. As far as when, I thought the earlier, the better. The store is open from 10am to 5pm. It'll take almost an hour to get to Ellwood City, so I thought we should meet at 11am at the latest, although I'm fine with going earlier if anyone is feeling ambitious. ;)

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 7:20pm PDT

yeah starbucks at the bottom is good... i'd make it there at about :40 past the hour, i think.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 5:26pm PDT

Hey, all are welcome.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 5:24pm PDT

Cait is interested in tagging along too to look for some stuff, unless it's a penis only party.

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 3:19pm PDT

I can meet you (Link and Nick) at the Starbucks at the bottom of Murray (2345 Murray Ave Pittsburgh, PA 15217) and then hook up with Dan near the blvd of the allies. Just let me know the time. p.s. I drive really fast and swear a lot.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 2:07pm PDT

cool, sounds like a plan

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 1:11pm PDT

So here's what I'm thinking: I'm picking up Shawn (& Seth too if he wants to ride up with us). Nick, Jeff, & Link, you guys can hook up then we can all meet somewhere close to 279N so we can just shoot right out. Two good roads to meet that come to mind that mind are the Blvd of the Allies or 40th St. Both are very close to 279N.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 12:42pm PDT

But the bus runs down murray so i can always ride it closer to 376... Or, depending on how you're getting to 279n, i might be on the way

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 12:36pm PDT

That's fine w/ me depending on the time. The sunday bus puts me @ Forbes and Murray every hour on the half hour

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 11:53am PDT

Squirrelopolis is very convenient for me. I'm out east by Monroeville (Zombie land).

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 11:46am PDT

I'm still in Squirrelopolis.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 11:44am PDT

i don't want to speak for everyone else, but i'm pretty sure that Link and I are the only people on our (east) side of town that need a lift (though i could be wrong). Link, what neighborhood are you in nowadays?

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 11:22am PDT

I'm in and I can give Nick a ride (and anyone else). Is Oakland a good central spot to meet?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 11:17am PDT

i'm still in! and jeff, i could use a lift if you're still offering.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 9:59am PDT

Yeah I thought I remember you saying you might be out of town, but I figured I'd toss it out there anyway.

667251308@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 9:57am PDT

I'm out.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 9:46am PDT

I would still be down for this me thinks.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, November 1, 2010 at 9:45am PDT

Okay ramblers, wanted to give a shout out and see who was still in for some back issue diving this Sunday up at the Ellwood City NDC.

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, October 12, 2010 at 3:02pm PDT

My thoughts exactly Jeff. I figured we could all rally somewhere, figure out rides, then drive up at the same time.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, October 12, 2010 at 1:43pm PDT

<raises hand>

1550476785@facebook.comTuesday, October 12, 2010 at 7:29am PDT

If anyone needs a ride, let me know. I'm out east and can pick up at the Oakland, Shadyside, Squirrel Hill area.

667251308@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 8:40pm PDT

More than likely will be out that weekend. Sorry!

619871688@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 6:40pm PDT

I'm still down.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 6:31pm PDT

that could work out fine for me

784978277@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 5:12pm PDT

Sounds great to me!

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 4:57pm PDT

That's perfect, my son's soccer season will be over by then.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 4:54pm PDT

sounds good to me

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 4:08pm PDT

No it didn't. Sorry guys, I forgot to send out a message that I wasn't able to go. Since the rest of the Sundays in October are no good for most of us, I propose a new date of Sunday Nov. 7th. For those that care, there is no Steelers game that day.

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 4:02pm PDT

Hey did this happen?

667251308@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 4:09pm PDT

I might be out of town that weekend. I'll let you know as time draws nearer.

784978277@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 4:06pm PDT

I'm down for it!

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 1:46pm PDT

cool

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 12:32pm PDT

i'm down

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 12:04pm PDT

I think Sunday October 10th is a good day.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 11:43am PDT

I'm in and I nominate either October 9th or 10th because those are my only free weekend days for the next month (until PIX is over).

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 11:21am PDT

I was waiting to see how many people were interested before picking a date, but I think it will most likely be on a Sunday.

619871688@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 11:11am PDT

My fiancee and I would probably be interested in doing this depending on when it is. I'm usually free on weekends, she's usually only free on Sundays and Saturday afternoons.

1550476785@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 10:08am PDT

Sure, sounds like fun.

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 9:56am PDT

yeah count me in

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 9:39am PDT

There's nothing like diving for dollar comic books with friends, so I'm organizing a small trip up to New Dimension Comics in Ellwood City and I wanted to see who was interested. If you haven't been to the Ellwood City NDC, check out the link below. They have the biggest collection of dollar books and price-as-marked books that I've ever seen and they have the pictures to prove it. http://www.ndcomics.com/stores_ellwoodcity.html Also, you'll notice I didn't make this a public announcement. I didn't want to turn this into some big thing, I just thought it would be fun to go as a small group. That being said, if you're interested in coming and want to bring someone, please feel free. Who's in?

Nick Marino, Alyssa Lemon
Alyssa LemonTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 11:02am PDT

Yay, thanks! And good luck un-fucking your next few weeks and talk to you at the other end!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 10:53am PDT

yeah my next couple weeks are fucked too by def from mid-august on i don't have shit happening. stique says hi and congrats on your nuptials!

Alyssa LemonTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 10:50am PDT

Or maybe chess piece face dial. :| yay! let's talk soon! the next few weeks are redonkleburgers for me, but will be pretty smooth after that. i'll give you a ring! hi to justique!! loved you guys in the final superhaters! :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 10:47am PDT

i thought it was ridiculous skateboard face dial at the time... but maybe it was actually destiny!!! we should totally catch up.

Alyssa LemonTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 10:05am PDT

HEY!!! Seeing your pics reminded me that I now remember seeing your name in my missed calls queue and I've kept meaning to respond to you, but it's always a time like now when I'm at work. Was that a pocket dial, or were you calling to chat? Would be nice to catch up! :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 15, 2013 at 8:42am PST

JUSTIQUE SAYS HI!! Whoa I didn't know you're a biker! Badass.

Alyssa FerenceMonday, January 14, 2013 at 8:17am PST

Unfriendly is not cool. Hopefully people will stop being jerks. At least the populace has become less jerky by your mere presence. Not much lately, Ive had this motorcycle for a bunch of years that needed a little love and we got it up and running during the global warming heat wave this past weekend (record temp of 75 yesterday...) and that's fun. Otherwise not much! Please tell Justique I said hey!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, January 13, 2013 at 3:51pm PST

Been here for two and a half weeks. Not fake, more like unfriendly. S'new wit u?

Alyssa FerenceSunday, January 13, 2013 at 8:39am PST

That is so awful! I can understand why she wouldnt want to say anything about it. Not something you want any random FB acquaintance to comment on. Why weird? Is everyone super sunshiny and fake or something? How long have you guys been there? A few months?

Nick MarinoSunday, January 13, 2013 at 8:25am PST

Jamie lost the baby. I forget exactly what happened... I think she went into labor early and then the baby was stillborn or died shortly thereafter. She opted not to say anything about it, at least I don't think she ever publicly posted about it on FB. Long Beach is okay. Kind of a pain in the ass and weird, but I'm holding out that the fun will start soon!!!!

Alyssa FerenceSunday, January 13, 2013 at 7:08am PST

Hey dude... It just occurred to me that Jamie knapp was pregnant last year, but I don't see any baby pictures. Did something happen? :( I would ask Conrad, but if something sad happened, I wouldnt want to dig up the pain for him. If its just that they're not inundating their kid with FB posts, then great! How's long beach? You and justique's place looks really nice !!! Congrats again, I'm really happy for you guys!! :)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 8, 2012 at 9:55am PDT

Hanging with Ross was fun! Rochester was just so boring otherwise. And Brett was cool, but weird. Pretty much like you'd expect, ya know? Everybody says lots of great stuff about NC, so I hope it's just as good for you!!!! I haven't told many people yet, especially not my friends here in PGH, but I'm moving later in the year. Either Phoenix or San Diego. Still have to decide!!! Justique is doing TONS better, thx for asking :) Her aplastic anemia is in remission... but in the process of treating that, she got fibromyalgia, which is its own terrible thing. But I think she'd rather live with fibro than be dead, so bonus points for that! I decided to not go back to school and instead just teach myself everything I want to know about comics and publishing. It's going pretty well. Slow sometime, but good otherwise. What have you been doing in Alabama? Sounds like you're super excited to leave

Alyssa FerenceSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 6:40pm PDT

Yeah, hmmm... weird. Oh well, not like there's anything to say about it. Just saw it and was kind of shocked. I guess I'm a bit more sensitive to it (and certainly more sure it's NOT for me) after having lived in the deep-ass south for so long. I've seen Brett on FB a bunch. Didn't he guest on one of your podcasts recently? How's THAT guy doing? His posts don't really give any indication of what his life is actually like. And Ross? Not surprised about the not that fun... I think if I didn't have family or a few close old friends there, I wouldn't really enjoy visits there, either. Only new things recently are that we got a dog, which is really all I've posted about recently, and that Lee has very probably gotten himself a new job in NC, which means we will be moving there in the next month or two. SOOOO glad. Alabama is absolutely the WORST. No joke about it. Not being religious, sports-enthused, members of the military or fans of reality TV or hunting, we have found ourselves with about two half-decent friends here and nothing else. Time to make our escape! I realize that NC isn't the very most ideal in terms of politics, but the culture and landscape are much more vibrant. I think the alleged influx of northerners has been helping with its progressive ideals as well, so I'm more than happy to get there. How are you? How's Justique? Looks like you guys are making some headway with comic endeavors! How's her health? I know she had been in and out of the doctor's office last time we spoke. Have you guys decided to stay in PGH? Are you going back to school for animation like you were thinking (was it animation or illustration?)? Anyway, I hope you are well. Give Justique a hug for me!! :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 5:37am PDT

Conrad and I talked about it once about a year ago. Apparently she's been pretty religious for a while now... and she got Conrad to start going to church. BLECH! He knows I hate that stuff so I think he's hesitant to talk to me about it. Roch was uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh okay. It was cool hanging with Ross and I saw Brett which was really weird. And that was it. Just between me and you, kinda not that fun. Waz new with you?

Alyssa FerenceFriday, April 6, 2012 at 9:28pm PDT

When did Karen get all religious? Is Conrad hyperreligious now, too? I saw her post on my FB homepage today and was confused. Did you visit in Rochy yet? How'd it go? Meet up with anyone cool?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 5:17am PDT

thx!!!!! hope you enjoy it.

damn that sucks they made it look like anyone can sign up

Nick MarinoFriday, February 4, 2011 at 6:06pm PST

the catch is you have to be invited to the show!!!!!1 i tried to get in on it last year.

Shawn AtkinsFriday, February 4, 2011 at 5:57pm PST

look what i found this might be better than fan expo since its geared to indy people the down side is the registration is over http://torontocomics.com/form.html

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Seth Fronzoli
Nick MarinoSaturday, January 29, 2011 at 1:30pm PST

yeah i saw that last night. pretty funny. though i think the title's a little misleading... it's not diversity of characters, but diversity of genre that they're going for.

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:56pm PDT

I'm a little burnt from cons

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:56pm PDT

Let me rephrase it

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:56pm PDT

I've lost interest.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:56pm PDT

good to know that the panels are solid. i wasn't into them much in the past. but this year i've been loving them.

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

They have good panels but I'm not a big fan of panels. Hehe

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

k, cool. if the panels are just meh then maybe i'll only do one day

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:49pm PDT

But it's a good show man, you should try it

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:49pm PDT

Not really.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

nice. i'm thinking about going this year. do you hit up a lot of panels?

Dan BurgosMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:36pm PDT

It's good, pretty big. I go every year.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 20, 2015 at 7:36pm PDT

Dan BurgosThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:12pm PDT

Helps you meditate etc

Nick MarinoThursday, April 9, 2015 at 6:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

Dan BurgosWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

No worries man

Dan BurgosWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

Sure understand le.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:51pm PDT

Dan BurgosWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:45pm PDT

Thanks man! I was trying to get there on Tuesday, but I'll see if my friend hooks me up too :/

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 7:41pm PDT

so i've got a room in a downtown hotel. my Holy F*ck collaborator, Daniel Arruda Massa, is gonna be there with me. as far as i know, we'll have one bed (i did the hotel lottery for a two person room but they were sold out so i got a one person room... so one bed i guess?) anyway, i'm coming in on thurs morning and leaving sunday night. Dan Mendoza (of Zombie Tramp) might be staying with me if Action Lab doesn't get him a room. but basically that's the info i've got right now. when are you getting into town and leaving?

Dan BurgosThursday, October 23, 2014 at 7:56pm PDT

If you did succeed-- BRAVO! Please do Bob Corby and the rest of the organizers of S.P.A.C.E. the favor of sharing with us & your friends and the rest of the FB community what it was you enjoyed about the show and what you feel helped to make you so successful this year.

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 12:30pm PDT

A whole bunch of Marvel Solits posted. The Shadowland arc is listed. I like the concept but can't accept Daredevil as a villian or a tough ass ninja killer.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 9:11am PDT

i love the idea of Shadowland, but i'm not much of a Daredevil fan. i guess it's good that he's sorta the villain then, right? i mean, i'm a big Cage fan (though i prefer 70s Cage) and i love the Daughters of the Dragon and Shang-Chi (blah on Moon Knight), so this thing has my curiosity piqued... but i need to see some preview pages first, i think. who;s writing it? Antony Johnston?

7906751@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 8:37am PDT

Wait. So it's been confirmed? General Ross = Red Hulk? Man, so glad I jumped before this train wrecked. A year ago, the entire Hulk franchise just seemed to be back on track and then Fall of the Hulks came out.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 8:11am PDT

Which I'm still trying to figure out if that's something worth being invested in or not. My main beef with Shadowland right now are the solicitations that have a human Punisher on the cover, and once again with the continuity thing, it's like "Okay, so does this story take place sometime after Frank returns to being human? Is this flashback stuff with him in it? Is the event Pre-Siege?" So, I'm taking a "wait and see" approach to that event, despite really enjoying a lot of those Street Level characters.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 8:09am PDT

Actually there is going to be a Daredevil event this summer called Shadowland, which involves most if not all of of the street level characters in the Marvel U.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 8:05am PDT

Hulk and Daredevil just seem to be removed from the main universe (maybe it's because Bendis isn't writing those books, lol.) I mean, outside of the stupid "The List" tie-ins they had (which conveniently made use of Norman Osborn to trap Bruce in his human form) there really hasn't been any major connections with continuity. Plus, I mean... Hulked Out Heroes... As cool and fun as that idea may be, it totally removes Hulk from the rest of the universe. It's like "Oh, this one time, for a day or two, everyone was turned into Hulks, and shit got real, but then everything was better and we went back to our daily lives." Granted, I don't see a bunch of books with Hulk-Spidey and Hulk-Wolverine in them doing very well so I know why they didn't crossover, but it still kind of distinctly separates Hulk from the rest of the universe and gives it it's own continuity/universe.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:59am PDT

Granted, I'm not reading any of the Hulk books or the current event, but the Hulk universe seems like it's in complete disarray. It really seems like a huge cluster f*ck.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:59am PDT

From the sounds of a recent interview it seems like they actually went out of their way to keep things secret. So much that most of the people who even WROTE the stories had no clue who he was. It seems like Loeb, Pak, Parker, and Joey Q. were like the ONLY people who knew who Red Hulk was.

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:56am PDT

That's pretty bad. I was on the same page as Nick thinking it was Glenn Talbot. Loeb probably had some one else in mind for issue 12 and was told by editorial to change his plans and wait to reveal. The book at this time is just silly fun.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:40am PDT

i thought for sure it was gonna be Glenn Talbot. how is it even Ross? i thought he was practically in the same scenes as Red Hulk in the early issues. oh, also, how come his hair goes jet black and his stache disappears? i smell shenanigans afoot...

619871688@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:29am PDT

Somehow we got on the topic of discussing it at the comiccon and I was just like "lol, Red Hulk is probably General Ross!" because it was so far fetched and stupid, and then I joked that She-Hulk was actually Betty, which SORT of made sense for it to be her even if Ross wasn't Red Hulk, and then... boom, that's the actual reveal. I'm just blown away by the stupidity of it all.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:26am PDT

I knew the reveal was coming up, but after two years, they could've revealed Red Hulk to be Uncle Ben, and I wouldn't have cared.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:22am PDT

Just because I'm surprised NOBODY has mentioned this in the past week anywhere. They revealed who Red Hulk was, and I can only laugh myself to tears that I called it at the Comic Con week/weekend in a half-assed joke/comment. Red Hulk is General Ross, and Red She-Hulk is Betty. JEPH LOEB... ARE YOU SERIOUS?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING MAN?! GO BACK TO WRITING AWESOME BOOKS WITH TIM SALE!!!!! :[

Aurelia FriedlandSaturday, June 4, 2011 at 2:21pm PDT

Of course! Let me know if you do end up moving here we should meet up. All the best, Aurelia

Nick MarinoThursday, June 2, 2011 at 5:28pm PDT

It helps a ton!!! Thx so much for sharing all of this. I have a little bit of LA experience, but not a ton, so any info is helpful. And your POV is something I can relate to a bit more because everyone else I know in LA has been there for years. Yeah, 13 people... that's an interesting set up. I can barely live with one person, let alone a houseful.

Aurelia FriedlandTuesday, May 31, 2011 at 1:39pm PDT

Hey Nick, That's awesome that you're thinking of moving here. I just moved here recently, and have mixed feelings about it. Overall though, I'm impressed. I'm still feeling my way around the art scene. I know there are a few areas, but the one I can speak of personally is downtown. You can find some nice loft situations (I live in one with soon to be 13 people, interesting...). There's a downtown artwalk every month which has a lot of potential. In general, I feel like there's a lot more going on I just don't know about yet. I don't know anything about the indie comics scene, but my guess is there's definitely a niche out here. There is a strong interest surrounding entertainment, fiction, fine art, and media arts. Of the places I've been so far, I feel like downtown is the most inspirational to me. It has an LA version of the Pittsburgh charm. I live in the garment district, where there are tons of street sellers with fabric, fruit, etc. Architecture is falling apart, and there are remnants of the shifting industries in fashion and cinema.. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions, Aurelia

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 7:26am PDT

Hey Aurelia - How ya been? I'm messaging cause I'm eying up a movie to Los Angeles in the next year or so, and when I searched my FB friends it said you're living out there now. I just have a quick neighborhood question -- where do you think are the best neighborhoods in terms of the LA art scene? Also, any info about the indie comics scene out there (if ya have any) is greatly appreciated. THX A TON!

Hi all - So the fan page is made, and I've invited about 120 peeps to LIKE it (we'll probably only get 20 of those first 120, but that's okay). The magic number is 25, because at that point, I can make a custom URL for the page. Anyway, invite all your friends to become fans PLS!!! In the photos, I posted all of ACT I as a photo album (see attached). Send the link around! I'll be posting about this on the AudioShocker tomorrow, as well as some other related Time Log stuff. I haven''t made anyone else an admin yet... if you want to be an admin of the page, let me know and I'll hook you up!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 1, 2011 at 10:30pm PST

Hey you two -- Both of you have brought it up recently how you're perplexed by my taste in stuff. even to the point of saying we have completely opposite taste. Both of you have also suggested podcasting about it. So I'm wondering... would you be interest in trying out some kind of podcast crossover? Kelly, I know that doesn't necessarily fit your mission statement for 3 Chicks... but it could make for a good fill-in episode if you have a week that's bad for your co-hosts. And Ben, I know you guys only do video now, but I still think it could work! Thoughts? ALSO, I'm willing to record and edit all the audio for it, because I'm quick and have a relatively efficient system set up.

I think y'all would appreciate this… A special poster Marvel printed up for the cast and crew of the film. A lovely take on period poster art (you know, the "talkies") as well as the first issue of Captain America Comics in 1941. Illustrated by Paolo Rivera (http://paolorivera.blogspot.com/)

I assume they do it Murray Ave style. Apparently the owners are from the Pittsburgh area.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 11:34am PDT

Provolone, Mozzarella, and Muenster maybe? I dunno, just a guess.

And one of the hottest items on their menu is a Pittsburgh-style pizza featuring a secret cheese blend that they haven't even revealed to their employees!

It's about an hour west of Philly.

I love the idea of a crossover! I'll talk to my artist about it. Also, I am in hot pursuit to find out what happened to the Noid for you.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 10, 2011 at 4:01pm PDT

hehehe :) if you're down, maybe we could have a crossover in the future, like the taco biker gang could stop by in Super Haters

Danial James TallaricoMonday, October 10, 2011 at 10:22am PDT

Ha, I love it! So flattered to be a muse for you.

Hmmm I'll leave that up to you. Dickie is a little bit crazier, and he comes with catch phrases. Nick eats on the podcast and has horrible taste in movies.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 2, 2011 at 10:08am PDT

No problem. Will it be Nick Marino or Dicky Walters joining us? Just out of curiousity. :)

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2011 at 10:05am PDT

Ohhhh right you said next week. Whoops. Dunno why I thought this week. Yeah, I hate sidekicks, so I'll just be cranky. :) Let's go with the 18th. I'll think of some topics and suggest them soon. Thx for inviting me!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:54am PDT

Agreed. I'll leave it up to Nick, 11th, 12th, 18th, or 19th? You pick the day. We usually record around 6 PM EST, but have been known to do it later. :)

Brian O'GaraMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:49am PDT

ok that is very true, if this is 100% gonna happen we should let col panic in on this

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:44am PDT

We're having a show on 11th or 12th, yeah, but I already decreed at the end of last week's show what we were gonna talk about. Although I'm fine with postponing that for a week and doing the YIBR team-up instead. We're technically not lying since Team-Ups are #ed differently. ;)

Brian O'GaraMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:41am PDT

link, arent we having a show the week we get back? Nick is more than welcome on the show, we'd love to have you, but wouldn't we have a show inbetween?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:37am PDT

lol, sounds good. It would actually be next week, since this week is our Texas trip. I'm thinking 18th or 19th, you pick the topic. :)

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:32am PDT

this week is crazy busy for me, with my Phantom Free Comic Book Day stuff on Sat and the opening of the Fleeting Pages indie book store as well. so next week would be better! plus, i hate non-powered supporting characters like Rick Jones and Bucky and Jimmy Olsen and ughhhhh they blow.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 2, 2011 at 9:14am PDT

Nick, do you want to do a YIBR team-up next week? Assumedly Wednesday or Thursday (not sure yet.) We're going to talk about Non-Superpowered Supporting Cast characters and the mysteries of the ending of Neon Genesis Evangelion, or you can wait for the week afterward when we don't have any topics chosen yet. :)

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 9:01am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 9:01am PDT

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 9:01am PDT

yep

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 9:01am PDT

as for Coliseum, i was just gonna email all five stores to let them know about the book and offer a retailer-only advance PDF of #1. do you think that's good?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 9:00am PDT

okay cool. i'll see how that lines up with what Jamal has.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 8:57am PDT

hey i'm not getting to the con until like 1 on thursday, and i'm signing with dh at 1 on saturday

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 8:57am PDT

yeah, 2 days a week

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 30, 2014 at 7:52am PDT

are you still working at coliseum? i'm emailing a bunch of shops about Holy F*ck and they're on my list because of you.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:47pm PDT

OH GOOD

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:21pm PDT

no worries, man! this stuff happens. and we're doing well on time... i just heard back from Jason and we can take up until next Friday if we need to.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:17pm PDT

alright i facebooked him, he seems to be on here pretty regularly, i explainded the sit. sorry for all the drama

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:16pm PDT

nope, just email.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:16pm PDT

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 2:10pm PDT

you got his diggits?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 1:23pm PDT

yeah thats cool

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 1:17pm PDT

well i was just gonna say, if he is busy, i could just finish from his flats, you cou could credit it as both of us coloring

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 1:16pm PDT

ooooooooo he's gonna be so pumped

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 1:03pm PDT

i'll facebook him and see what he thinks

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 1:00pm PDT

hahaha cool. i know he started moving yesterday from Sweden back to The Netherlands, so i don't know his schedule for the weekend... but he would be so psyched to color it and i'm sure he'd wanna tear into it ASAP. if you wanna go that route, you can send me any notes and i'll pass them along to him. or if you have his email address, feel free to cut out the middle man (ME!) :D

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:54pm PDT

yeah he definitely has it down better than her

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:52pm PDT

as far as i know these are just his first pass at flats. if you like where he's going with it, i'm sure he'd be thrilled to get some notes from you and work up a more detailed and shaded version.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:49pm PDT

those are just his flats? was he gonna do a little shading and stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:42pm PDT

also, Daniel's always game for coloring if you're interested. he was so geeked out by your awesome inks that he went ahead and flatted them last weekend. here's the pic he sent me.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:42pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:39pm PDT

i emailed Jason but i never know when i'll hear back from him... could be one hour or five days!

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:37pm PDT

let me see if i can get her to make some changes and if not, i'll just color the thing over the weekend, sorry dude

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:37pm PDT

alright, well this girl i used before who has done a good job before, totally phoned this one in

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:34pm PDT

yeah, i think that's going to be too late. but i need to check with Jason and see for sure.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:23pm PDT

ugggh, i'm sorry, looks like the colors are running behind. is next friday gonna be way to late?

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:50am PDT

haha will do

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:50am PDT

yeah def tell him to come to NYCC! he might cave to the insurmountable peer pressure if we keep it up.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:47am PDT

aw dang, i haven't wrote him in forever, i will do that today

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:47am PDT

he's pretty far... 6 hours or so

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:46am PDT

how far does he live from the con. we should go visit him one night haha

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:46am PDT

it was ok, could have been better. the toy info was interesting

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:45am PDT

i tried to talk him into coming out for NYCC but i doubt it'll happen

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:45am PDT

cool. i'm not familiar with it. but i vaguely remember him being interviewed for something like that.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:44am PDT

he

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:44am PDT

h is in that turtles documentary they just put out haha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:44am PDT

haha wha???

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:39am PDT

you got it. I saw Ross on my tv the other night haha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:36am PDT

thaaaanks.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 22, 2014 at 9:21am PDT

yep. will do.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 8:26am PDT

i'll need to get the final version of the cover from you as a PSD (i assume the colorist is working in Photoshop). ever use Google Drive / Docs to share a large file? that's probably the best way to send it.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 22, 2014 at 8:24am PDT

hey! just checking in and seeing how the colors are coming along.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 15, 2014 at 7:30am PDT

yeah i think it should be ok

Nick MarinoFriday, August 15, 2014 at 6:44am PDT

deadline for colors is end of next week. that work?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 12:22pm PDT

to be honest, i don't have an exact deadline from them yet. i asked yesterday but no answer yet. hopefully i'll know soon!

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 12:12pm PDT

yeah just pass along my e-mail! Well I'm gonna ink it friday evening then pass it over to my colorists, she was just making sure it wasnt a day turnaround or something haha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 6:25pm PDT

I need to ask Jason about the official deadline. He really loved the cover pencils, BTW. He might be interested in hitting you up for some cover work in the future.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 3:01pm PDT

I'll prolly ink this Friday, when you gonna need the final colors by?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 9:34am PDT

Big thumbs up from Daniel. I just sent it to Jason and Dave (imprint publisher and company creative director) to keep them updated.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 1:01am PDT

Lookin hotttttt!!!!! The detail is fucking killer. Can't wait to see the inks. I'm gonna send this over to Daniel. Thx :D

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 11, 2014 at 11:44am PDT

here are the final pencils before i go to inks

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 11, 2014 at 11:44am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, August 8, 2014 at 12:30pm PDT

FUCK YEAH!!!! That is super sweet. Can't wait to see more as it develops.

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, August 7, 2014 at 6:25pm PDT

heres a little tighter pencil, but i will do a tighter one before inks

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, August 7, 2014 at 6:25pm PDT

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 5:43pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 4:52pm PDT

and i really appreciate it! thanks for looking out like that. but yeah, let's just go with our original shit.

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 3:13pm PDT

yep! just seeing if i could help you out a little more, but i get what you are saying!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 2:59pm PDT

So for those reason plus some other stuff not related to your cover, that's why I think it would be best to go with a single cover from you and use it for NYCC. That cool with you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 2:58pm PDT

As for the Jesus / Satan variants, it wouldn't be as easy as just splitting them up in the design you currently have. The idea is to switch out Jesus for Satan in the variants, so the characters are basically doing the same thing but on different covers. And I don't think we'd be able to make that happen with the design you have right now. Also, if we went for your designs on #2, then we wouldn't be using your work for the NYCC exclusive. And frankly, the more I think about it the more I like having your cover on the exclusive at a show where you'll be there to sign them! (Also, the NYCC exclusive is gonna be an advance copy of the book about two months ahead of it being in shops... so it'll be a cool little exclusive for people who're into that.)

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 2:46pm PDT

Yeah, def stick with your fav colorists. I totally get.

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 1:47pm PDT

Check it out, I can totally draw it so you can split it up, but also have them combined! so what I'm saying is if you wanted to use the combined version as the NY variant and also use them seperate as the devil/jesus variants it would be really easy to do. I do have a couple colorists I feel comfy with.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 1:13pm PDT

it sorta made sense to me... but ya know what? this whole fucking variant thing (not just yours, the entire goddamn plan) has gotten so confusing in the past 24 hours that i feel a strong desire to simplify. so let's go with your single cover design and use it as the NYCC con exclusive. thanks for being cool about this and being patient while i figure everything out :D also, i didn't mention it before because i just assumed you wanted to color it, but Daniel offered to color your cover back when you and i first started talking about this. i totally understand if you've got your preferred colorist so no worries if that's the case. but he's a big fan of your work and i'm sure would jump at the chance to collaborate with you if you're interested.

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 12:35pm PDT

hope that made sense

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 12:35pm PDT

up to you dude, I'm into drawing that design. But I can always just draw each character for a little more, we could easily break that design up, satan standing like that and jesus on the rocket, you could even combine them just for the NY variant, I wouldn't mind. can you do 375 or 400? I was gonna have someone else color it so it would be nice If I could at least get 100 for each cover and throw them 75.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 9:44pm PDT

hehehe sorry to make you go nuts!! butttttt... i heard back from them and it's pretty much a done deal that we're doing this new variant plan. basically, each issue will have a regular cover by Daniel and two variants (one Jesus and one Satan, each doing something similar). so that leaves you with two options -- 1) we stick with your cover design as is and go with it for the NYCC exclusive, OR 2) if you're interested, you could do the Jesus and Satan variants for Holy F*ck #2. the Jesus/Satan variants don't need to be totally different covers. in fact, they can be the same design and background but with the characters swapped. and i'm not gonna lie to you -- $500 would be too much for me to drop on the covers right now. but i could do $350 if you're interested in doing the Jesus/ Satan variants for #2. but if you're not interested... then fuck it!!! we'll just go with the original plan and use your sketch from earlier today for the con exclusive.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 6:10pm PDT

haha your gonna drive me crazy over here Nick! I'm into drawing that cover, so tell them it will be a good one haha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 4:36pm PDT

sooooooo i had an unexpected email waiting for me when i went to go send my publisher your cover layout. they're interested in expanding our variant plan for the entire miniseries, which would affect your cover. basically, they're proposing Jesus and Satan variants for each issue. i'm still waiting for clarification on a few points, but once i have that i'll let you know exactly what's up.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:35pm PDT

perfect

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:35pm PDT

k, sounds good. i'll copy you on the email.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:35pm PDT

i mean just tell them its a layout sketch, should be all good

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:34pm PDT

cool. would you like me to send it over to my publisher or do you wanna tweak anything first?

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:33pm PDT

yeah i think that would work just fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:33pm PDT

hahah uzi Jesus would be great!!! i'm down for that.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:33pm PDT

Daniel likes the design too. what do you think about a layout like this?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:33pm PDT

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 2:33pm PDT

I was gonna draw jesus holding an uzi haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 1:28pm PDT

i'm digging it! i like missile-riding, sword-wielding Jesus and massive laughing Satan. and Maria hanging out of the fanny pack is my favorite part!!! i sent it to Daniel to get his thoughts on it. he's in Sweden, so we'll either hear from him within an hour or later tonight.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 1:06pm PDT

yeah yeah, i can make it fit, but how do you like the design

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:42pm PDT

We could do something like this, though! Also, I might be totally stupid and this is exactly what you meant from the beginning haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:39pm PDT

I'm feeling it! My concern is that our trade dress would totally obscure Satan, though :/ As far as I know, we're locked into the logo at the top like that. So basically we only have the bottom 2/3s of the page to work with. Kinda limiting, I know...

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:01pm PDT

alright, got an idea, lemmee know what you think...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 4, 2014 at 3:31pm PDT

gotcha. well, i figured things out with the publisher and i'm definitely gonna be at NYCC. now i just gotta make sure that issue #1 is there with me!!!!!!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 4, 2014 at 12:35pm PDT

i'm gonna be with my art dealers crew, i'm sure its in the alley though

Nick MarinoMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:43am PDT

do you have an artist alley table?

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:23am PDT

yeah, I hopr nycc will be worth it!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:21am PDT

it's not locked down yet, but there's a good chance it'll happen as long as everything else stays on schedule. and if we do the con exclusive, then i'll definitely be at NYCC too.

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:20am PDT

totes!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:20am PDT

nice. i'm talking to Action Lab right now about printing an NYCC con exclusive of Holy F*ck #1, which i think would be an awesome destination for your variant cover if you're cool with that.

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:13am PDT

yeah booooy

Nick MarinoMonday, August 4, 2014 at 11:03am PDT

are you going to NYCC this year?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 2, 2014 at 12:29pm PDT

sounds good!

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, August 2, 2014 at 7:35am PDT

alright, i'll read through what you sent and send you over some scribbles of cover ideas hopefully this week

Nick MarinoFriday, August 1, 2014 at 10:02pm PDT

i'm paying for it so it's not like we need to get approval for that. just thought i'd mention that in case you were concerned about it! hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, August 1, 2014 at 9:55pm PDT

ya know? fuck waiting on them!!! let's just get rolling on this cover. no matter what happens, the art is gonna find a good home. i'll email you all of the details, including the cover template for Photoshop

Nick MarinoFriday, August 1, 2014 at 7:32pm PDT

for sure, thanks for looking out. i'll ask them again in a day or two if i don't hear back about it.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 1, 2014 at 2:27pm PDT

ok, just try and keep me informed so i can keep a space open up for you.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 1, 2014 at 12:13pm PDT

hahah yeah i found out that my publisher is terrible about replying to emails about variant covers! i'm still waiting on them to give me the official green light. status is the same as my last update. they move kinda slowly over there. most recently, they were asking their sales people about doing a retailer incentive cover. thanks for checking in!

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, August 1, 2014 at 11:13am PDT

You find anything out about the cover?

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 4:53pm PDT

Haha this looks pretty funny! Yeah just let me know!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 4:50pm PDT

variant update! i'm still working out the details with my publisher contacts right now, but it's basically a lock. i just don't have a deadline for you right now. or a final destination for the cover yet (regular variant, retailer incentive, con exclusive, etc.). BTW, we've colored the book since you last saw it. here's a PDF of it: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/holy-f-ck-color-1.pdf (it's a super top secret don't share with anyone preview version!!!)

Nick MarinoMonday, July 28, 2014 at 1:29pm PDT

talking to my publisher about it now. price sounds good. thx!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, July 28, 2014 at 1:17pm PDT

yeah just let me know! full color 250

Nick MarinoMonday, July 28, 2014 at 12:19pm PDT

haha i'm glad we were there with you while you were drawing it!!! :D as for the variant, Daniel and i are turning in the full package -- all finished pages and covers -- in on August 1st. basically, Action Lab's policy is that they like to have the whole thing in before they solicit the first issue. but they might make an exception for the Russ Manning award winner ;) lemme shoot them a line and see what sort of deadline they'd want for a variant from you. also, what's your cover art price????

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, July 28, 2014 at 10:05am PDT

hey, somehow I missed that text you sent me about holy fuck! Sure I'd love to! And thanks dude about the award! I'll always remember listening to alot of ross and nick podcasts while making ss

Nick MarinoSunday, July 27, 2014 at 6:23am PDT

Congrats!!!!! I'm so stoked that you won. Well deserved.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 20, 2014 at 10:58am PDT

looks like my Holy F*ck comic is gonna be out starting in December. any interest in doing a variant cover for the first issue?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:28am PDT

and kiss babies. yeah. gotta keep up appearances.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:28am PDT

yeah, kill all of the other nominees. thin the competition.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:28am PDT

be a better person, kiss babies?

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:26am PDT

am I suppose to like do something now haha?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:26am PDT

huh. that is pretty weird.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:25am PDT

well it was weird, he posted on fb that he got a a phone call of something cool that he couldn't tell yet, then he e-mailed me and told me they called and said i might be up for it

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:23am PDT

innterrestinggg. is that cause he heard it through the grapevine or do they actually get in touch with publishers?

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:22am PDT

brendan e-mailed me and said it was a maybe

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 8:00am PDT

hehe well SURPRISE it's out there. did they contact you ahead of time to tell you?

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 30, 2014 at 7:44am PDT

oh thanks, i didn't even know it was announced haha

Nick MarinoFriday, May 30, 2014 at 6:53am PDT

CONGRATS on the Russ Manning nomination! Much deserved.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 3:40pm PDT

Hehe it's all good. We're gonna go with them.

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 11:39am PDT

Yeah I'm sorry if that was not good news

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 10:17am PDT

Innntttterrresting! That's somehow worse than I expected! Thanks for the insight. I've known about them since they launched a few years ago and I used to see them in my Pittsburgh LCS a lot but they also have a lot of ties to Pittsburgh so that's probably why.

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 7:38am PDT

I had to look up what action lab was haha. I'd never heard of it. We do not carry any of their books but I did have someone ask me about Zombie Tramp the other day.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 13, 2014 at 3:06pm PDT

YO! Sup? How's Sabertooth stuff going? Are you already drawing the next graphic novel??? If you got a quick sec, I wanna pick your brain about something. Just between you and I, I may have an opportunity to publish through Action Lab in the near future and -- as someone who's worked behind the counter at a comic shop -- I'm curious about your opinion of their products. Does Coliseum of Comics carry many Action Lab books? Do customers ever come in asking for them? Do they sell okay? I'm generally interested in finding out anything along those lines. I've barely been to a comic shop in the past year and a half, so I'm a little out of touch. I appreciate any retailer perspective you can offer. THANKS!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 24, 2012 at 9:42pm PST

Thanks!! Happy holidays to you too :D Honestly, I've been kinda bah humbug this year, but this totally puts me in a Christmas mood. I'm super psyched for 2013!!! Big things, man. It's gonna be sweet!!!!!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, December 24, 2012 at 12:05pm PST

Hey Nick, Just wanted to say it's been a really exciting year for me and getting to podcast with you and Ross only added to it, thank you! I just wanted to wish you a happy holiday in whatever you do. Even if it's just another Tuesday making comics, have a great comics making day haha!! PEACE! Aaron

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 5:31am PST

That's awesome that the pencils are almost done!!!' And c'mon, inks are the best part :D I can't say anything else about the cartoon thing!! Anything more and you might figure it out :} But suffice to say that it's a small opportunity from a big company.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, December 18, 2012 at 9:54am PST

I'm finishing the pencils on SS next week, so I feel pretty good about that, but I still have like 3 months of inking to do, so *sigh*.

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, December 18, 2012 at 9:52am PST

Wow, pretty big change! Sounds good, I bet the rent is cheap at your gf's mom's place haha! That animation thing sounds rad, how big time is it? Like an internet thing or like a possible television thing? Haha you guys and that X-men!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 18, 2012 at 6:26am PST

I moved outta Pittsburgh and I'm in the process of moving to LA, but in the meantime I'm at my GF's mom's place in Texas using free WIFI at coffee shops whenever I can. THAT'S MY LIFE! I got a cool offer to pitch to an animation studio, so I've been spending most of my time working on that. The podcast is on hiatus while my internet is limited. And, yeah, we're still on that X-Men shit. How's the comic coming along???

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, December 17, 2012 at 7:26pm PST

So how are things over on your end? I gotta catch up serious on some Ross and Nick Podcasts, you guys still reviewing X-men haha? I got into that Radiolab podcast and then my lady wanted me to listen to those Lemony Snicket audiobooks so I got behind!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 17, 2012 at 5:10am PST

Hehehe yeah it goes like that sometimes

Aaron M. ConleySunday, December 16, 2012 at 2:09pm PST

Thanks brotha! I'm really glad you dig them! everything dropped at once apparently!

Nick MarinoSunday, December 16, 2012 at 12:38pm PST

Duuuuude those It Girl and Prophet covers are fucking incredible!!

Aaron M. ConleySunday, November 4, 2012 at 1:40pm PST

Yeah I though you would dig it!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 4, 2012 at 12:57pm PST

Nice!!! Thx. Tons of great pics on that site.

Damon didn't tell me what Frank said but he did tell me Frank was a huge dick to him!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:20pm PDT

I think Allred is just such a nice guy he thinks everyone else is. But yeah he is crazy, did Damon tell you what Frank Cho said when he saw him at mega-con about the book, that was pretty funny. Man I am up to nothing new, I breath, sleep, and eat Sabertooth, I don't what is good or bad anymore haha! AAARggghh -Aaron

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:16pm PDT

I figured that much about the convention, I'm most people feel that way, its just something we gotta do pimp our shit!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:07pm PDT

Hanging with Damon was great!! Getting a sneak peek at the SS pages was one of the highlights of my weekend. I can't wait until it comes out next year. Also, Damon's Madman art book fiasco was probably the best story from the show. I can't believe Allred didn't even tell those guys that they had art in there!! The show was okay for me. I sorta hate all conventions and this one was no exception. But I met tons of awesome people, which was kickass. What's new with you?

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:03pm PDT

Hey brotha, Haven't said whats up in a while and was Jealous Damon got to chill with you guys for a minute this weekend (hope he didn't bug you to much). How did it go,did you have fun? Sell some comics? -Aaron

Aaron M. ConleyTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 11:47pm PDT

Haha ok! oh yeah and check out the turtles i drew for some cats on free comic book day...http://www.invademyprivacy.com/

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 3:13pm PDT

Thx!!!!! I'm so sad that your poop story isn't ready for prime time. If you want, you could always anonymously share it through the call in line 4125677606. I'll know it's you... but no one else will!!! I won't even tell Ross :}

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, May 7, 2012 at 10:30pm PDT

Hey I just listened to the last podcast, so nice to have just you and Ross back. You guys have such a great dynamic, two friends just cracking up, makes me crack up! Your analysis on why the turtles became so popular was deep man, loved it! I have a poop story that would crack you guys up but I don't think I could ever let it be on the podcast, maybe one day we'll meet and I'll tell it!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 13, 2012 at 1:30pm PDT

OH MAN I LOVED that first season of the Avengers cartoon. I thought they effed up the Panther's origin pretty bad... but otherwise, I dug his appearances. I DID finally read the Wolvie issues (sorry I forgot to report back!). They were good! They didn't strike me quite like Uncanny X-Force did, but I really enjoyed them. I'm still a little confused by some of the characterizations, but it makes more sense when you read all of that first little story arc. Overall, I look at it as an interesting experiment in trying to appeal to a more avant garde, hip readership rather than continuity diehards (which I feel is being catered to by the new Uncanny X-Men series). I sit somewhere in between, always excited to test out something new and fresh, but coming to it with a long history of reading. Haha so I read X-Factor. XD I think Avengers vs. X-Men is really average on its own, but getting the free digital copy (including Infinite Comics #1) and the Marvel AR app... man, that entire package blew me away!!! I'm totally on the AvX train until the book actively begins to suck.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, April 13, 2012 at 1:13pm PDT

Hey man! i just listened to the latest Ross & Nick pod! Did you finally read those Wolverine & the X-men? Did you not dig it? I have to admit I was not excited for Avengers vs. X-men but I understand the crazy fun of it, Kelly takes everything to heart, Haha! Do you ever watch any of that Avengers cartoon that was recently on, I watched the first season on netflix, the animation was kinda wonky at times but I enjoyed it, I thought Black Panther was pretty cool on it!

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, March 22, 2012 at 11:07am PDT

Cool, you dudes can talk about those lovable alien turtles!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 22, 2012 at 7:43am PDT

i will!!! i'm reading it within the next few days because i'm seeing ross this weekend and giving him the comics, so i gotta finish em quuuuuuick!

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, March 21, 2012 at 10:02pm PDT

naw, cool man. let me know what you think when you read those.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 21, 2012 at 9:56pm PDT

Guess what was finally in my pullbox today? Wolvie #3 reprint!!! So hopefully you didn't mail it yet :)

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:58pm PDT

Yeah its a tricky subject and it all comes down to how offended you really find yourself and make a decision from that (Kelly kinda touched on it). I mean I totally find Frank Miller to be a crazy old bastard and more than anything that is offensive about the guy is how much he has let his own artwork go down the drain, but I love batman year one for the Mazzucchelli art and Frank Miller being a asshole will never prevent me from enjoying that book. You want to send me some of your comics stuff? Hell yeah, I love getting shit in the mail. Send away brotha! and I'll send wolvie out this or the following week. -Aaron

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:50am PDT

Oh man, I feel really dumb now because that's a great point about the person changing, especially because of celebrity. We totally glossed over that on the podcast. DAMN IT!!!! And another good point about the cast crew we DON'T know about. Wow. I feel so dumb now. hahahaha YES! I still haven't found it, so I'd love a copy of #3. THX! BTW, I have a show next weekend and then I'm planning on sending you a comics care package of some of my stuff when I get back. Is that okay? NO PRESSURE TO SAY YES!

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, March 16, 2012 at 1:05pm PDT

Great Ross and Nick podcast. I did have a thought, lets take Mel Gibson for example, there is the possibility that during the mad max point in his career he was a swell dude,maybe becoming a super rich celebrity clicked the crazy button. Could you then enjoy the film again knowing he was a "good guy" at that point. I think there is a possibility of getting to deep into it, I mean what if you found out the producer or the key grip where date rapists or date raped after they worked on some film you loved, do you then hate that movie? haha! I did get that wolverine and the x-men #3, if you still need it I'll send it out! -Aaron

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 6:05pm PST

ross and i read sorta reviewed some frankencastle on an old episode of the podcast. i don't remember what he thought but i wasn't that into the first issue. not bad, just not my thing. thx!!!!!! and if ya don't have anymore, then my hunt will continue!!

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 23, 2012 at 9:15am PST

Right! Did you ever read Frankencastle? That shit was awesome, he wrote that! I got a number #3 second printing, if its still at the shop on Saturday I will grab it for you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 22, 2012 at 5:32pm PST

not yet! initially, i asked my LCS to hold a copy for me when they got more in from Diamond. they told me it was on backorder but they assumed they'd get some more. anyway, i asked them about it again last week and they said if they haven't gotten them in by now they probably won't get any. so now i'm on the hunt!!! hahaha i'm still super psyched to read the issues! thx again for sending them. i have a totally different opinion of remender's work now (a.k.a. now when i see his name on anything i'm like "that's gotta be good!").

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, February 22, 2012 at 1:50pm PST

did you ever find a wolverine & the x-men #3?

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, February 17, 2012 at 11:33am PST

Hahaha very true!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 17, 2012 at 10:38am PST

I have seen 'em! In general I think the sculpts are fantastic on both the classics and the new ones. And I don't even mind the 3 toes. What gets me are some of the facial expressions on the new ones. So goofy, especially the power sound ones where it looks like somebody snapped their pictures at a really awkward moments of mid-motion.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:06am PST

Thanks so much, that means alot. Loads of it was drawn while listening to the Ross an Nick podcast, so I have you guys to thank for entertaining me while i draw. I sent these over to Ross but did you see these figures based on the new turtles designs? I kinda like them and that playset is badass but I don't think i like the 3 toed feet....http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/02/01/new-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-toys-playmates-2012/

Nick MarinoFriday, February 17, 2012 at 7:03am PST

that's gonna be fucking sweeet!! you gotta lemme know when its in previews cause i'll pre-order a copy. i was looking at some of the Sabertooth art on invademyprivacy and its incredible.

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 16, 2012 at 6:11pm PST

Oh yeah I love dean whites colors to, so amazing! I'm glad you dug the book, I thought the way you guys talk about the x-men it would be something a little more fresh. I hadn't read the X-men in years and immediately jumped right in and enjoyed it! I'm working on pg. 36 right now of 104, I still work a real job so I work 3 days a week at the comic shop and 3 days on art so its coming along great but slowly. prolly in a little less than a year. Ross said he would do a pin up for the book, Allred is doing one and Brandon Graham, so hopefully it will turn out to be a nice little package. I'll send you some pages at some point.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 16, 2012 at 6:01pm PST

net *us. typo. WHOOPS

Nick MarinoThursday, February 16, 2012 at 6:00pm PST

GREAT TIMING! I just finished Uncanny X-Force tonight. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. It's so good. I can't believe how self-contained it was and how relatively small the scale was (not in terms of the setting but in terms of the cast and the events within the story). Opena, my god. Him and Dean White are like magic together. I dunno how I missed this book before. So good. Yeah, good point -- DD did net up the TMNT. Haha. I read some of the Smith and Bendis runs. They were meh for me. I don't hate the character on principle... but he doesn't excite me on the whole. I'll definitely let you know! Thx so much for the offer. I can't think of anything right now... BUT I WILL!! When's Sabertooth Swordsman coming out?

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 16, 2012 at 4:38pm PST

Sup dude! Double shout out on the podcast! Awesome!! You better tell Ross he has to give me shout out after he reads them! Triple shout out! Haha Wolvie and the X-men has already crossed over a good bit with the run of X-force so far. You do have to love Daredevil for one thing. If it wasn't for him we would not have the Turtles! I do have to admit a few years ago I really enjoyed the Bendis run on DD, it was pretty dark but it was definitely the first time i enjoyed the character. Let me know if there are any big releases you might want to read, Usually we order a crapload of number ones of the big two, I'll try to send them over especially if you and Ross are both gonna get some enjoyment out of them. Always enjoy the cast. -Aaron

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:18pm PST

Thanks man!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:16pm PST

GODDAMN!!!! Both of those are fucking gorgeous! I won't say a word to anyone about the Sabertooth Swordsman stuff :) I can't wait to find about more about it!!!! Very awesome.

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 9, 2012 at 11:19am PST

ugggh those images are so small on fb! Here is a link to that madman piece, hopefully that works better! http://www.flickr.com/photos/60278921@N04/5667278777/sizes/l/in/photostream/

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 9, 2012 at 11:16am PST

Yeah I'm still reading the new issues and it has kept me really entertained. the dark angel saga they just finished up was killer and that Opena comes back for the art. No you don't gotta mention Coliseum, its always nice when Invade is mentioned though! Damon said you were asking about the Madman pin up over on Invade so i'm sending that along with the Sabertooth Swordsman cover (Dave Stewart colors on that one), please don't pass that Sabertooth cover around or anything Dark Horse wants us to wait a bit longer before any of that gets out, but I thought you might enjoy it. -Aaron

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:17pm PST

I'm LOVING this Uncanny X-Force story so far. It's fucking incredible!!! Also, do you want me to drop a Coliseum of Comics shout out on the episode? Because I'd be glad to do it! An Invade My Privacy, on the other hand, is just a no brainier. That's happening regardless :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 9:30pm PST

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!! THX!! I already read the first 1.5 issues of X-Force... AMAZING!

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, February 4, 2012 at 12:06pm PST

Oh cool they got there pretty quick! Enjoy! I should have thrown one of our little invade comics with those, dang! I'll send you one at some point and draw one of the super haters in there.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 8:26am PST

I just got the comics.... THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! Such an awesome comics care package. I can't wait to dig into all of this. I have something I want to send you, but it's gonna be a few weeks until it's all ready. (I sold out of some stuff after the fall con season and I have a couple of new things still to print up.)

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 2, 2012 at 6:37pm PST

yeah yeah thats what i ment i forgot my words too

Nick MarinoThursday, February 2, 2012 at 6:36pm PST

i was born in 82. ross, 80. but my message was a typo!!!!! i meant to say "you mean music from that era? the mid 80s?" i dunno why i left out those words. whooops!

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 2, 2012 at 2:14pm PST

haha I was born in '77. So I mean I was more concerned with he-man than any fashion haha. How old are you and Ross?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 2, 2012 at 2:10pm PST

you from that era? the mid 80s?

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, February 2, 2012 at 2:00pm PST

hey just started the new ross and nick podcast and i wanted to mention that you if you think about it almost everybody in music but Bruce Springsteen was pretty androgynous.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:29pm PST

I'll review them on the podcast!!!!

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:26pm PST

No prod, You and Ross have given me hours of entertainment at the lonely drawing board, thought I'd give something back. Let me know what you think after you read them!

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:22pm PST

so awesome!!! THX!!! I can't wait :)

Aaron M. ConleyWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 3:03pm PST

Hey sent those comix today, i didn't have a #3 so I threw in somethin' else.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 24, 2012 at 4:16pm PST

mucho thx!!!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, January 23, 2012 at 11:05am PST

Haha yeah, I loved his stuff, I'll always grab them when i see them in the 50 cent bin. I'll send ya those comics later in the week.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 23, 2012 at 10:16am PST

Oh yeah I bought one issue of Uncanny X-Force. I feel like it sounds brilliant in reviews and such, but reading it wasn't much of a revelation for me. But that art is superb! I'll probably devour it in trades once they've been out for a year or two. Stroman X-Factor was my favorite!!! I reread those issue a couple of years ago and they were just as good as before. Stroman was really on fire back then.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, January 21, 2012 at 12:48pm PST

Hey no prob man. I haven't read X-factor since Stroman was drawing it haha! I have been reading that new Uncanny X-force, its pretty serious but I enjoyed it, really liked the art on the first arc.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 21, 2012 at 12:36pm PST

Thx so much!!!! I can't turn down an offer like that! 5700 Centre Ave Apt 611 Pittsburgh, PA 15206 The moment I'm thinking of definitely happened really early on in the book. I guess it was silly of me to judge it off of a throwaway-ish moment like that... but it's how I felt at the time, ya know? I have started picking up X-Factor again, though. It blows my mind how consistent Peter David has been with this most recent X-Factor run.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, January 21, 2012 at 12:25pm PST

hmmm, that's strange, I think Prof X was only in like the first two pages of the series so far. I think it has been a really fun book and a much lighter take on the x-characters, and to me I think is what they needed. I have a crap ton of extra copies of all 4 issues at the shop, I'll send you the first four. Hit me with your address. -Aaron

Nick MarinoFriday, January 20, 2012 at 4:15pm PST

THX Aaron!!! So glad you're still listening and enjoying the show. You're right -- Kelly is super intense. I like how she's really passionate about certain topics, I always learn a lot from talking to her. I haven't been reading Wolvie and the X-Men. I checked out some online previews and small characterization stuff just turned me off, like Prof X calling Wolverine "boy" and dumb shit like that. To me, it felt like a far different take on the characters, and certainly not a bad one... just not one that jives with my interpretations of them. However, I loved Bachalo's arc on X-Men with Gishler, the one in the sewers with The Lizard. I thought that was kickass. I actually emailed Bachalo to tell him how much I enjoyed it.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:59am PST

Hey dude, Dug the last Ross and Nick podcast! Man that Kelly is serious business tho! I am with you totally, if you love comics but nothing is coming out you dig, make what you dig. Maybe I'm just easy going but their are some pretty decent reads out right now, did you check out that new Wolverine and the X-men, Bachalo drew the first three issues, I thought it was alot of fun! Love the podcast! -Aaron

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 26, 2011 at 4:19pm PST

THX!!!! and i do really like that Storm. i wish there was a good Storm comic coming out right now.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, February 26, 2011 at 3:41pm PST

Hey Nick, Just wanted to let you know I'm still lovin' the Ross and Nick podcast! Its been nice having just you and Ross back at it. Saw this Jason Pearson Storm I thought you might dig.... http://cdn.comicartfans.com/Images/Category_5551/subcat_9706/pearsonStorm.jpg -Aaron

Dan Greenwald, Jeff Moreci, Nick Marino
Jeff MoreciFriday, May 13, 2011 at 6:16am PDT

Thanks! It was fun. I'd definitely do it again.

Dan GreenwaldFriday, May 13, 2011 at 5:53am PDT

Yeah, you were a natural too Jeff. Definitely want to get you back on the show.

Jeff MoreciFriday, May 13, 2011 at 5:43am PDT

Dang! Oh well it was good practice.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 13, 2011 at 12:18am PDT

NO!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sorry!!! The same thing happened to me Tuesday night with the Ross/Nick show. Do you use Call Graph like me? It just does that every so once and a while.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, May 12, 2011 at 8:52pm PDT

Oh Nick...you jinxed me with that comment about not being the one recording the episode. I'm not sure what happened, but there was nothing recorded when I tried to open the file.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 12, 2011 at 2:32pm PDT

Ummm I've been watching a lot of Marvel animation lately (Avengers: EMH, Armored Adventures, Iron Man 90s show, the motion comics on Netflix (X-Men, Iron Man, Spidey Woman)). I could get down with some convo on that. Like I said, I read Total Recall. And I started the Taskmaster TPB.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, May 12, 2011 at 1:31pm PDT

If you're okay with it, then it's fine with me. I mean, I don't think we'll spend a ton of time on it...I think most of what's been said has been said on Facebook or in reviews anyway.

Jeff MoreciThursday, May 12, 2011 at 1:28pm PDT

We can talk about Thor. It won't ruin it for me. I already got the skinny from Link and Ray.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, May 12, 2011 at 1:24pm PDT

Hey guys, just wanted to make sure we're all on board for tonight's recording. I figured we could talk about Free Comic Book Day and then review a few books. If there's anything specific you want to talk about (other than Thor because Jeff hasn't seen it yet) just let me know.

Ross Campbell, Nick Marino, Aaron M. Conley
Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 7:22am PDT

Yeah I feel iffy about his unfinished look. Sometimes I love it, and other times I want it to be crisper.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, May 6, 2011 at 7:17am PDT

Oh yeah, Towsend really is definitely the best inker for Bachalo! Some of that late 90s early 2000s stuff when he had almost an anime feel to it was really bad in my opinion, it looked like he was just trying to be every other artist on the block at that time. He puts out some stuff now thats nice and other times seems a bit unfinished, its always better when townsend is on the inks tho!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 6:28am PDT

heh yeah i knew what you meant. i did read that stuff shortly after it came out... i even bought the gold covered GN they did of it (it was in a 50 cent back issue bin!). i LOVED that art, and the story was decent. a great morbid ending. but i'm still even more partial his later Gen X and first run on Uncanny. maybe it was the inker. i tend to love his stuff with Townsend.

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, May 5, 2011 at 8:02pm PDT

haha sure, but this sentence was suppose to say this: "I was suprised you guys didn't mention the generation x comics when it became generation next the age of apocolypse universe stuff"

Nick MarinoThursday, May 5, 2011 at 7:41pm PDT

THX!!!!! Can I read this message on the next cast?

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, May 5, 2011 at 6:46pm PDT

Dudes, Been lovin' the podcasts lately! Glad its back to the basics of just Ross and Nick.The new discussion after X-men has been great. I would love to hear a process cast, talking about where you guys start to the final product when making comics. Also a cast on what you absolutely hate to draw would be great too! Loved the frat boy realism cast and it always cheers me up to know that not everyone thought the dark knight was the best movie ever made! I was suprised you guys didn't mention the generation x comics went it became generation next the age of apocolypse universe stuff, I don't love Bachalo, but I think that stuff is some of his best work to date! anyways congrats on a hundred, keep it up! -Aaron

Dan Greenwald, Nick Marino, Brandon 'Link' Millward
Dan GreenwaldWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:20am PDT

I wish. If that existed, that would be a dangerous thing for me.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:18am PDT

Just tell them to put it on your tab.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:13am PDT

I stupidly left my debit card at home so I'll have to pick up my books tomorrow.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:59am PDT

I'm probably heading there around 12 PM, meeting up with Ray & Jeff as per usual.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:49am PDT

"Powers and Costumes" -- sketch out a power or a costume (or both!) for which you have a passion (and it can be passionate love or passionate hate!).

Mikey WoodSunday, February 27, 2011 at 3:29pm PST

Whatls the theme again?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 27, 2011 at 12:18pm PST

hey all, PB v3 is go! here's today's first entry: http://www.audioshocker.com/2011/02/27/project-basement-gambit-by-dan-greenwald i still need art! i've got one from Byron for next week, but i need your kickass sketches to keep things rolling :)

Shawn AtkinsMonday, February 7, 2011 at 1:18pm PST

word im in

Nick MarinoMonday, February 7, 2011 at 5:47am PST

Project Basement - Powers and Costumes -- Hey all, So Project Basement v2 wrapped last week ( http://www.audioshocker.com/2011/01/31/project-basement-volume-2 ) and yesterday was the first Project Basement Spotlight. In three weeks, I'd like to kick off Project Basement volume 3... but I need art!!! As a refresher, the theme is "Powers and Costumes" ("Costumes" as suggested by Wayne Wise, "Powers" as desired by me!) and the idea is that this is an opportunity to draw a character whose design or abilities you've always wanted to sketch but rarely (or never) had a chance to do so. As always, email art to nickmarino@gmail.com, and don't forget to include a rant/explanation of what you like (or hate!) said character's costume or powers (and remember that anything is fair game... it's doesn't just have to be comic book characters). THX!!!!!!!!

hey what's up i just checked out your new EP, it sounds great. BTW, when i sent you a link to my album before, i thought the full thing was streaming but instead it was just 30 second snips. SORRY! anyway, if you want to hear the full thing, it's streaming now. http://www.nickmarino.net/2010/09/14/nik-furious-brilliant-shower-album-sampler/

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 28, 2010 at 6:09pm PST

I've heard of Black Moth, but never listened to them. I'll have to check them out. What are you working on next?

Simei DoblinskiTuesday, December 28, 2010 at 3:18pm PST

Hey Nick, thanks for enjoying Druma Kina. I checked your stuff. I like it, specially the synths. Do you know a band called Black Moth Super Rainbow? I love it, maybe you feel you got something in common with them. See you.

Hey what's up, I found your Druma Kina work by accident on Grooveshark when I was looking for some Heatwave tracks. I like your stuff!!! I don't normally contact other musicians/producers out of the blue like this, but I was really impressed with your work and wanted to say hi and share my music with you (maybe you'll like it!). I produce under the name Nik Furious, both original and sampled stuff. I'm partial to my original music, which is electronic/funk/rock/soul instrumentals. My sampled stuff is mostly done with the end goal of being hip hop beats. My one complete album of originals is Brilliant Shower: http://www.nickmarino.net/2010/09/14/nik-furious-brilliant-shower-album-sampler/ And I post my sampled tracks one a week on my blog at: http://www.nikfurious.com I haven't tried my hand at any house/electro production like your Druma Kina work, but I checked out your FLOVV interview and I really related to your sensibility, so I figured I'd get in touch and share my music. Lemme know what you think! Even if you hate it, that's okay! I appreciate any criticism.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 19, 2015 at 9:27am PST

Thanks!

Brian John MitchellThursday, November 19, 2015 at 6:30am PST

Thanks sir. If you ever want something of yours up on the page just let me know. I know it might be weird currently since you have a publisher.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 19, 2015 at 1:42am PST

It looks great! Everything is super clear.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 9:55pm PST

Let me know if you think this looks decent & easy enough to navigate & all that. hard to balance all the needs.... http://silbermedia.com/comic-publicity/

Brian John MitchellThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:48am PST

thanks.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 8:28am PST

It looks great!!! I think your FAQ covers the big questions and it's a good offer.

Brian John MitchellThursday, November 5, 2015 at 6:38am PST

can you check this out & let me know what you think? http://silbermedia.com/comics/promo-services.shtml

Brian John MitchellMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

yeah, i should do the same really.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

well, need is a stretch... i WANT.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

i need to spend more time on my stories and less time on the internet

Nick MarinoMonday, June 29, 2015 at 8:00am PDT

no thank you!!!! :D

Brian John MitchellMonday, June 29, 2015 at 5:43am PDT

You interested in taking a 9 week, one hour a week class on social media promotion through CyberPR? Let me know what email address to use to sign you up if so.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 6:55am PDT

Thanks! Looks like fun. I'm in Phoenix right now for the con but Imma check this out next week.

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 29, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

thought this seemed like some people yu should know about.

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 16, 2015 at 8:21pm PDT

i have it in my queue and keep finding other things i want to watch first! mostly sports and music documentaries. i've been hitting up this site http://www.snagfilms.com/ a lot because they have a bunch of weird docs.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, May 16, 2015 at 6:22am PDT

Documentary on netflix Stripped seems like a match.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 15, 2015 at 8:54am PDT

But yeah I'm gonna check out all of your recommendations. I'll let you know what I think.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 15, 2015 at 8:53am PDT

hahaha now I wanna try watching Iron Man 2 without the first 30 mins! I thought the Norton Hulk was fine. No better or worse than the other movies. Well, no, actually better than Thor or Avengers or whatever. I don't even fucking remember them anymore. It's one big blur of average.

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 15, 2015 at 6:09am PDT

You know what is the best Marvel movie is Iron Man 2 if you walk in 30 minutes late. I really don't get why no one likes the Norton Hulk. Or why are me & my wife the only people who think Gotham is the most watchable comic book show? I do think you'd enjoy the movie Congress, but it is so weird & starts so slow that I don't think it would work while doing other things, which is how both of us watch movies generally. It might be a double watch in that scenario....

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 6:19pm PDT

I've only read a few issues of the Guardians comics (and appearances) over the years, so I probably won't have too many hangups about them getting things wrong. With that said, all these Marvel movies that people love (Cap 2, Avengers, Iron Man 3) I thought were soooooo boring. Maybe I should watch that Thor sequel that people don't seem to like and I'll probably love it. Or Babadook.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 14, 2015 at 3:42pm PDT

Get Babadook instead.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 14, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

well, the lighting is such that 50% of the movie you can't see anything. Other than that no worse than Transformers movies unless you (like me) have some knowledge & nostalgia for the characters from the 1970s/1980s who are either completely missing or unrecognizably altered.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:20pm PDT

funny you just watched Guardians... i was thinking about renting it because i have a lot of coloring to do this weekend. how bad was it?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 2:19pm PDT

dude i think you'd like My Name Is Jonah. it's pretty cool.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

Now I understand why you think superhero movies are over.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

Oh, man, I just saw Guardians of the Galaxy for the first time yesterday. It is pretty awful. Friends with JB on the FB, but haven't seen the movie & didn't know it was him.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 14, 2015 at 11:17am PDT

I've never heard of those flicks! I'm very out of the loop lately. I'm probably gonna see Mad Max Road Fury, which will be the first time I've seen a movie in the theater since... shiiiiit last August I think? I saw My Name Is Jonah, JB Sapienza's documentary. You're Facebook buds with him, right?

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 11, 2015 at 7:10am PDT

Yeah, it is not good. But it is weird how liberal they were with the source material. Noah has the wrong amount of kids for example. The good movies I've seen lately are Babadook, Congress, & Predestination - but I'm not sure ay of those would be a match for you.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 10, 2015 at 8:44pm PDT

hah! nah, i haven't checked it out. russell crowe and aranofski, right? can't say that pair interested me.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 10, 2015 at 6:26pm PDT

Hey, have you seen the Noah movie (free on netflix now)? It's not good & it's not bad, but is interesting because it gets a ton of details completely different than the story in Genesis. Also you can read the story in ten minutes but need to wait through the movie for two hours.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 5, 2015 at 8:22am PST

hahahahahahahaha

Brian John MitchellWednesday, March 4, 2015 at 10:40pm PST

Holy cow! This is from the local shop I was telling you about!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 5:52pm PST

i dunno man... there might be a thing or two i could talk about better, but you've got a fantastic wealth of knowledge on self-publishing and promotion for DIY comics. i think that would play great for college kids.

Brian John MitchellMonday, March 2, 2015 at 5:24pm PST

thanks. i'm sure you'd be better.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 11:00am PST

i think you would be awesome at that stuff!

Brian John MitchellMonday, March 2, 2015 at 10:59am PST

yeah, time for me to do something bigger for people to not notice! But seriously I want to break into some of the college lecture circuit & it being nearby makes it seem like a possible in.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 2, 2015 at 10:55am PST

yeah, his email is terence.dollard@uncp.edu -- he does in studio interviews too, i think

Brian John MitchellMonday, March 2, 2015 at 10:53am PST

Hey, listened to the comic culture thing on youtube. You got an email for that guy? Pembroke is probably an hour from this town I moved to.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 10:04pm PST

raccoon-like reflexes

Brian John MitchellMonday, February 16, 2015 at 4:24pm PST

your ability to survive is as mysterious as my own.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 3:53pm PST

MONEY?!?!? WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT MONEY??? hahaha

Brian John MitchellMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:41pm PST

All smoke & mirrors on the internet.

Brian John MitchellMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:40pm PST

Are you actually getting paid for comic stuff now? Just curious.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:40pm PST

yeah, i hear ya. i don't know much about the art scene here either to be honest!

Brian John MitchellMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:32pm PST

cool, thanks. not really sure. I was given the lead from a local art connection & thought it was a local guy, but then it ends up someone based out of Los Angeles. Which is kind of a different ball of wax as the art world is so different from region to region & what is judged as successful.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:13pm PST

basically, i'm interested in helping you out so if there's a way i can be of assistance in that regard, i'm down. but my plate is pretty full with comics stuff so i wouldn't be able to get too involved in anything.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 16, 2015 at 2:12pm PST

probably not. but what does it entail?

Brian John MitchellMonday, February 16, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

hey sir, would you be interested in an online promotion job for an art gallery oriented website? Stepped my foot into something that might go a little beyond my expertise.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

it's close but not really the same region. Long Beach is part of the LA area.

Brian John MitchellThursday, February 5, 2015 at 1:11pm PST

I thought they were kinda in the same metroplex.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

naw, San Diego's kinda far from me. 100+ miles.

Brian John MitchellThursday, February 5, 2015 at 11:59am PST

i assume it is your local weekly or something.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 10:09am PST

haha so it's a newspaper that wants to review demos?

Brian John MitchellThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:29am PST

could cause hilarity for Nik Furious....

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:30pm PDT

dragon movie in the future where they do star wars as live theater in a thirty second throw away scene.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:19pm PDT

reign of fire?

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:18pm PDT

I saw Reign of Fire.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:18pm PDT

after the apocalypse they re-do that shit as live theater!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:17pm PDT

definitely! or Night Court. that sax solo is killer.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:17pm PDT

i was thinking that one day the Walrus should cover the Alf theme song.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 12:13pm PDT

awesome, it opened fine. when I make my big daddy one I'll send it over.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:54am PDT

Cynthia getting in touch with you is probably Shawn or Jared's doing. i don't know her very well. she friended them shortly after i moved away.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:53am PDT

it'll definitely let you in if i set it up right.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:51am PDT

did you tell Cynthia Lee to get in touch with me? She just asked about doing a collab & sent me an image of a comic she did more or less in my format.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:50am PDT

let me see if i can get google docs to work. send it to silberspy@silbermedia.com half the time it lets me in & half the time it doesn't. That's what i get for not using gmail.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:49am PDT

it was created in google docs and i can only export it as an xlsx. i guess they don't support the old format.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 2, 2014 at 11:47am PDT

old school excel works the best for me. xls none of that xlsx extension. I didn't even have a chance to start working on my retailer list in any real way, but I did email a dozen store owners people suggested for the first round of QRD interviews. Looking forward to reading your answers. Send some images too if I forgot to request that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 11:54pm PDT

Also, I finished the QRD questions but I'm gonna proofread them in the morning.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 11:54pm PDT

I finally finished my retailer list. What format is best for you? If you use Google Docs, I can share it with you on there. If not, I can export it and email it to you.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 6:25pm PDT

Cool

Brian John MitchellWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 5:24pm PDT

thanks

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:08pm PDT

here's the site: http://freshcomics.us/

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:04pm PDT

in my spread sheet I'll make an "indie friendly column" along with an "ins tore appearances" column.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:01pm PDT

But I am interested in hearing them say "we don't stock indie shit because no one wants it!"

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:01pm PDT

yeah, that's obviously my main interest, but mainly because no one else will respond!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 12:00pm PDT

i'm mostly interested in indie friendly shops. i'm not listing out every store.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:32am PDT

are you building in order state by state or anything? I'mgoing to attempt to get some interns for this crap....

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:28am PDT

haha that's a classic! i'll send you the other one when i stumble onto it again

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:27am PDT

lol. this one maybe http://www.comicshoplocator.com/Home/1/1/57/575 ?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:25am PDT

yeah it's okay. it's super outdated, though. there's a better site but i can't fucking remember the name right now and my google searches aren't bringing it up.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:22am PDT

i was probably just going to hack through this mess - http://www.the-master-list.com/USA/New_Mexico/index.shtml to build one state by state.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:21am PDT

sorta. it's not quite done yet. i'll let you know when it's rockin.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, September 16, 2014 at 11:20am PDT

hey, you got a list of cold call email contacts for comic shops? I'm going to start a series of interviews with shop owners in the next week or two.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 1:15pm PDT

nice! thanks.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, August 6, 2014 at 1:07pm PDT

i think this dude should be on your promo list - http://robertmprice.mindvendor.com/ he's a college professor, "christian atheist", & lovecraft scholar....

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:45pm PDT

hahaha

Brian John MitchellTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:35pm PDT

Go ahead, get Super Wet a placement in the Super Bowl.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 12:34pm PDT

i will definitely come to you with any bible questions! thx for the offer. haha i would love to apply to the Fox Sports job just to see how they'd react to my LinkedIn page

Brian John MitchellTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 11:31am PDT

yeah, paul is an opponent of Jesus named Saul until about three years after the crucifixion. Though John might be a better butt of that joke as in his own writings he refers to himself as "the one jesus loved."

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 10:42am PDT

so you're saying pete was the one that wanked it with Jesus, not paul?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 9:07am PDT

hey, the four page origin for Holy Fuck, it says Paul where it should say Peter. Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 27, 2014 at 7:55am PDT

Thanks!

Brian John MitchellSunday, July 27, 2014 at 7:39am PDT

congrats on the Action Lab thing. sent a friend suggestion for my friend Jason who at least used to work there (not on the staff page anymore).

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 22, 2014 at 7:48am PDT

i have never doubted your existence.

Brian John MitchellMonday, July 21, 2014 at 6:38pm PDT

hope things are well. without the podcast it feels like you don't exist. meanwhile on your side my level of existence is probably about the same.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 21, 2014 at 5:13pm PDT

exactly the same! well, older i guess.

cool :D

Brian John MitchellFriday, March 7, 2014 at 11:33am PST

I actually met that guy when I was in New Orleans. Haven't read his work yet though! His are slightly smaller than mine & have color covers & he gets them manufactured for real. Press runs of 1000.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 7, 2014 at 11:16am PST

i meant to send this to you last week. i sent it to eddie by mistake. i didn't realize it until today when he was asking me about your number http://www.nola.com/mardigras/index.ssf/2014/02/cartoonist_caesar_meadows_make.html

Nick MarinoMonday, March 3, 2014 at 7:04am PST

cool thx

Brian John MitchellSunday, March 2, 2014 at 9:09pm PST

if you want me to look at your pitch before you send it out, just let me know..

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 15, 2014 at 12:23pm PST

That's really interesting. Thx for sharing!!!

Brian John MitchellWednesday, January 15, 2014 at 11:34am PST

Oh, you might find this interesting. As you know facebook has been diminishing the number of people who see posts from a page, particularly ones with links. So my link about the download deal got 40 views initially (I did a no link post & that appear 240 times, kinda interesting) & for $5 I got 16,000 views of the download deal post. Unfortunately, it didn't generate any sales (I was hoping to get exactly one). But I thought you might find the info interesting.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, January 15, 2014 at 11:30am PST

awesome.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 15, 2014 at 11:30am PST

oh and 2 on the 26th is fine

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 15, 2014 at 9:20am PST

nah, no cons for me. thx though.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, January 14, 2014 at 7:57pm PST

You doing any cons soon? I'm doing a thing where I'm offering folks a vinyl bowl with 40 Silber comics for $20 (so you'd double your money eventually). Let me know if you might be interested.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, January 11, 2014 at 7:03pm PST

cool, i can do noon if need be. I just take care of my niece & nephew from Saturday at noon until sunday around noon, but sometimes my brother is late picking them up.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 11, 2014 at 4:25pm PST

It all comes down to what works for Shawn. I'll ask.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, January 11, 2014 at 1:21pm PST

2pm on the 26th would be a little better for me? That work for you?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 10, 2014 at 6:56pm PST

Okay, I talked to Shawn and we're down for this topic for the Jan 27 episode. When are good times for you to record? We've been recording on Sundays at noon eastern time. How would that work for you on the 26th?

Nick MarinoSunday, December 29, 2013 at 8:39am PST

well, if it was "serious vs. funny" i definitely think i'd have a bunch of friends who'd side with serious. would they call it tragedy? i dunno.

Brian John MitchellSunday, December 29, 2013 at 6:26am PST

Yeah, & I'm guessing you can add "which are you better at?" Anyone else in your set of peeps that would answer tragedy?

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 28, 2013 at 11:27pm PST

Honesty, I think it's already a fully flowering topic -- Do you prefer writing comedy or tragedy? And why?

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 28, 2013 at 8:03pm PST

Yeah, it is still kind of the seed of an idea. Is it about what comes natural versus stretching or about comedic writing versus tragic writing? You know what I mean?

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 28, 2013 at 10:40am PST

I think it's a really good topic. Our Jan 13th episode currently has a topic and guests lined up, but our Jan 27th episode is available if you're interested. I should also check with Shawn and see if we've ever talked about that! He remembers that stuff better than I do.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 28, 2013 at 10:06am PST

I just realized listening so SU that all your stuff is comedic & I was working on some of my stuff while it was on & realize how it's always serious & that for me comedy is so much harder than tragedy. So I wasn't sure if you were the same way but always went by the difficult road. I don't really have it in my mind right now, but that seems like it could be an eventual SU - what's your default writing mode & how do you stretch or whatever. I don't have it thought out enough for a topic.

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 28, 2013 at 8:33am PST

I have a hard time writing serious stories. It's not very natural for me. Comedy is my default factory setting. Why do you ask?

Brian John MitchellFriday, December 27, 2013 at 7:57pm PST

short but intense question. For me it's way easier to make intense super serious kinda sad stories (aka - tragedy). Do you also find that & just choose to only do comedy because it's more interesting or does comedy come easier for you?

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 3:22pm PST

i did a one episode for $20, two for $30 deal. i think it's really cheap. i mean, i run bullshit article ads for three times that. only problem is that it's a terrible deal if the kickstarter campaigns don't make their money! i doubt i'll get many takers in the future, though i would love to branch out and find more sponsors.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 3:13pm PST

super reasonable deal. $5 per mention.

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 12:39pm PST

I just heard about it on Thursday (I think?) but haven't had a chance to check it out until today. I'm gonna back it. (EDIT: I just backed it.) I charged her $30 for two episodes. Super cheap deal which was probably overpriced because I don't think I got her many backers! hahaha

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 8:31am PST

So did you charge them that same $300? Yeah, I get weird about people asking for a ton of money. That's why all of mine are only ever a couple hundred bucks. You know about the Kickstarter that Joe Badon is doing that I have a story in? http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1857321894/memoirs-of-the-mysterious-comic-anthology ? We'll see if it makes it or not in the end.

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 8:27am PST

$$$$$!!!!! That's what. hahahaha I got tired of getting these bullshit press releases from comic creators who wanted $6000 for a 24 page comic book. So on a whim, I offered a sponsorship promotion. I figured if they wanted coverage so bad maybe they'll pay for it. And to my surprise, a few of them were interested. Granted, only one of them ended up going for it. But it's something I'm offering now, though I dunno how often it'll happen. The campaign I was advertising has only made like $300 I think.

Brian John MitchellFriday, December 6, 2013 at 10:40am PST

what's up with this sponsoring thing?

Brian John MitchellFriday, December 6, 2013 at 10:18am PST

catching up on sequential underground. not my official sandwich, but in answer to your question - the veggie cheese steak sandwich is a morningstar farms riblet in a hoagie roll with cheddar cheese slices on it.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 25, 2013 at 2:34pm PST

Thx for the advice!!!

Brian John MitchellMonday, November 25, 2013 at 2:08pm PST

I don't have one. If you are doing a short run of 100 or so, I'd totally suggest one of those three places. They look totally pro. People say good things about Kunaki, but I've seen mixed results as far as them not having good quality control.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 25, 2013 at 2:04pm PST

cool. thx!!! do you have a CD printer? would a small run of CDs be something you'd be interested in doing? i'd be paying you, of course.

Brian John MitchellMonday, November 25, 2013 at 1:44pm PST

For the best deals you should probably end up going with discmakers, discfactory, or Oasis if you want something standard & professional looking (e.g. jewel case or digipak). If you want to do something a bit weirder I might be able to help you find something.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 25, 2013 at 1:41pm PST

Bummer! I hope it gets fixed soon. Here's what I emailed you about: I'm considering a Stick Cats Kickstarter which would include the graphic novel and an album (or at least a few songs). I don't know shit about getting CDs professionally printed! Do you have any advice about the process?

Brian John MitchellMonday, November 25, 2013 at 12:45pm PST

Huh... I'll see what I can do to fix that. They sent me a notice that they were changing clients for my email spam service, but I don't know how to log in to it yet.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 24, 2013 at 4:16pm PST

i just tried to send you an email it got rejected by your "spam experts" service!!!! hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, August 12, 2013 at 10:24am PDT

sure im down for whatever. thx for asking :D

Brian John MitchellMonday, August 12, 2013 at 10:20am PDT

hey, would you be interested in doing an interview via email for QRD exclusively for you (not the recent survey style questions)?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 2:54pm PDT

hahahahaha

Brian John MitchellSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:25am PDT

yeah, I was thinking you already have Jerry the elf.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:23am PDT

i'm pretty anti holiday themed art... but i'll let you know if inspiration strikes me!

Brian John MitchellSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:20am PDT

yeah. if you want to do 5 christmas themed buttons.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:19am PDT

set of buttons you mean?

Brian John MitchellSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:18am PDT

Thinking about trying to do a christmas themed set in a few months if you might want to do some stuff for that.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 9, 2013 at 7:12am PDT

3763 E 11th St Apt 102 Long Beach, CA 90804 thx dude!!!!

Brian John MitchellThursday, August 8, 2013 at 11:24pm PDT

Cool, let me know where to mail the check & a special treat I have for you.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 11:11pm PDT

I'll take the $$$!!! Thx for putting this together.

Brian John MitchellThursday, August 8, 2013 at 8:34pm PDT

for the kickstarter the artist cut is $25 cash or you can get part of that as buttons at a quarter a piece or magnets at 50 cents a piece or zipper pulls at 75 cents a piece. Let me know what you want.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 20, 2013 at 7:08am PDT

thx

Brian John MitchellThursday, June 20, 2013 at 5:08am PDT

can't remember if you tried to do facebook ads before, but if not there are some coupons here http://promo-code-land.com/facebook-ad-promo-codes/#

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 8, 2013 at 8:59am PDT

thx

Brian John MitchellSaturday, June 8, 2013 at 7:04am PDT

not into the turtles, but thought you should know about this -http://www.comicspodcasts.com/2013/06/08/the-tmnt-podcast-episode-1/

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 31, 2013 at 11:02pm PDT

You read an entire thing before reviewing it? You're a better reviewer than me!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 31, 2013 at 9:43pm PDT

i need another day. THERE'S SO MUCH TEXT IN THIS KATHERINE THING!!!

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 31, 2013 at 7:38am PDT

this is the collaboration i did with the girl i "raped."

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 30, 2013 at 10:03am PDT

sounds like I can make Lost Kisses Dailies Volume II?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 10:02am PDT

ha! wow that is super especially intense shit right there. good luck on the date today!!!!

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:58am PDT

Yeah dude. I actually am going out on a date with another girl today. I can't imagine it being worse. I think the thing with that other girl is, she over states things to illicit a reaction & has absolutely no idea when she goes way beyond the boundary of acceptable things to say. The night I went over, she told me she was going to kill herself & had already taken the pills & when I went over there the pills she had taken were Tylenol PM.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:55am PDT

WTF why would she say that? damn. wow. that's just... i don't even know what to say. i'm sorry. I FORGOT ABOUT THE BLURB! will have one for you by tomorrow.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:51am PDT

Yeah, I know how to do the thing for the google search like that. Of course since the label dates back almost 20 years now, some stuff has gone dead. I'll probably start with the comics. We'll see what happens. If anything. I'm pretty burned out at the moment. Did you come up with any possible blurb stuff for Brian Hearts Katherine? In other news that could be a comic down the line, my newly ex-girlfriend called me drunk a couple weeks ago & we had what I thought was rekindling make-up sex (especially since it happened again in the morning & she told me she loved me & all that stuff). But then things kinda fizzled & i guess it was a booty call or whatever. Then yesterday I get an email from her saying that she's had a new boyfriend for a couple of weeks & she told him that I raped her?!? I tell you, I have a real talent for finding crazy broads. Oh also, if you are wondering, I think when a drunk girl pulls her pants off & then pulls my pants up & is on top of me, if anything, I'm the one getting raped! ~ Brian

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:12am PDT

yeah, that was the predominant philosophy in site building for most of the early 00s, so you weren't wrong to think that way because that's what most experts were saying. if you're up for the challenge, linking to all of your reviews will give you a HUGE boost! and whenever possible, you want to link to the exact page / blog post that contains the review, not just the root domain. do you ever do Google searches with quotes like "peanut butter bagel" or something like that? if you grab a unique snippet of a review and put it in quotes, it should be pretty easy to find the exact source if you don't have it anymore. like "Remora's droning guitars make for an exquisite aural experience" -- something like that would pop up the exact page.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 30, 2013 at 8:47am PDT

Thanks sir. I used to avoid it because I had this idea that I wanted people to just stay on the silber site & also I didn't want people to be able to reverse engineer my promo list. But things ain't been working out lately, so I know I need to restructure things a bit if there's a hope.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 8:32am PDT

Yeah, you basically said it. It's good SEO to link to as many other relevant sites as possible. Those hyperlinks will not only tell Google the original source* of the quote but it will tell them that your website is a good source of information because it contains content from lots of different places. *The original source thing is good too because Google will see your site as related to other sites that have reviewed Silber stuff. Then when people do searches for the review site, Silber links will also start showing up as results.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 30, 2013 at 8:26am PDT

Hey, quick question. In general when I post reviews up on my site, I don't have a link back to the page where the review was originally posted, I just put the text & list who did it. Would putting a hyperlink in theoretically increase my google ranking & therefore traffic?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 24, 2013 at 12:42pm PDT

Cool. I can do that. Me = ARTING.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 23, 2013 at 2:44pm PDT

hey, Kim says she's going to try to get me the art for her buttons on monday. So if you could get me yours for monday as well, that would be ideal.

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 20, 2013 at 10:32am PDT

I only finish them because they are passively in the background when I'm working on something else. Though the same could be said about just about any movie I watch or podcast or whatever.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 20, 2013 at 10:21am PDT

same here. i think i've only finished one or two episodes over the years. i've probably started 20 of them.

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 20, 2013 at 10:07am PDT

Yeah, it is really hard to listen to even when it's a topic I'm interested in. hrt Brian John Mitchell

Nick MarinoMonday, May 20, 2013 at 9:17am PDT

hahaha yeah those guys are kinda stupid

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 20, 2013 at 8:19am PDT

they talk about Super Haters, but don't remember the name on Deconstructing Comics. They still don't like it! http://deconstructingcomics.com/?p=3262

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 17, 2013 at 2:03pm PDT

yeah, I have no idea when I'll get the set in from Kim. I kinda hate how sometimes I have these projects that I feel are fun & not too intense & then people act like they are doing me the favor instead of it being some kind of collaboration. I mean, I'm the one that's going to have to spend thirty hours assembling buttons if the thing is successful.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 17, 2013 at 2:00pm PDT

okay, cool. well i'll keep working on them.

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 17, 2013 at 12:57pm PDT

I haven't any updates from the other potential folks either. We'll see what happens.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 17, 2013 at 12:38pm PDT

oh man im days away from being done. i'd probably be better off going with the second round if the first one goes well.

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 16, 2013 at 3:25pm PDT

dude, i have three of the five sets in. make it happen!

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 13, 2013 at 12:22pm PDT

sweet. I need to work on mine still.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 13, 2013 at 12:21pm PDT

yeah, i'll remember that!!! and if i send you stuff that you don't think is clear enough, feel free to tell me to do it over again. i want to give you kickass designs!

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 13, 2013 at 12:16pm PDT

I think you should do one with your eyeball dude. But yeah, the middle finger thing is fine. Just keep in mind they are only one inch, so it can be tough to make things out at times.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 13, 2013 at 8:40am PDT

do they need to be PG or can i get a little edgy with them? i don't mean full penetration or anything... i just have some ideas for more PG13ish things, like a middle finger button and some similar type of stuff.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 13, 2013 at 8:29am PDT

k

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 13, 2013 at 7:01am PDT

started getting in some of the button art for the artist series. start working....

Nick MarinoFriday, April 26, 2013 at 6:24pm PDT

i'll stay in touch with you about my progress.

Brian John MitchellFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:54pm PDT

http://www.silbermedia.com/buttons/custom.shtml template is on the page.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:52pm PDT

Sounds like a pretty cool project. I want in!

Brian John MitchellFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:51pm PDT

yeah, i am just fucking with you on XLK. I may draw it myself eventually. My main hope with the buttons is to use it to help advertise my button making. I kinda figure some of the artists might take their pay in buttons as well as bringing in their own fan base. So we'll see what all happens. I'm planning it that people can order one artist's series, two artists' series, or all five series priced at $6, $10, & $20, available as magnets at slightly higher prices.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:44pm PDT

Generally, I'm incredible when it comes to deadlines. But XLK #2? Not so much. SORRY! Honestly, you should try to find a different artist for XLK. I'm just not feeling it anymore. But buttons? Yeah, I'm feeling that!

Brian John MitchellFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:41pm PDT

How's XLK #2 going?

Brian John MitchellFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:41pm PDT

I don't know yet. It depends how soon I get stuff from people. If it's successful as a project, I may keep doing it. But I anticipate the problem I often have with collaborators as far as deadlines go.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:39pm PDT

Yeah, sounds like fun. What are the deadlines?

Brian John MitchellFriday, April 26, 2013 at 5:23pm PDT

Dear Nick, So I'm planning to do a kickstarter for 25 button sets. Five buttons by each of five artists. High tier rewards the artists would sell their original artwork. I'd split any profit 50-50 between me & the artists except they'd get all the money for the original art. No copyright/trademark infringing stuff. Let me know if you're interested in taking part. hrt Brian John Mitchell

Nick MarinoMonday, April 15, 2013 at 12:00pm PDT

I HATH REPLIED TO YONDER EMAIL WITH A SMATTERING OF TINY CHANGES!!!

Brian John MitchellMonday, April 15, 2013 at 11:56am PDT

sent you an email about it, but if you didn't get it - http://silbermedia.com/5in5/nik-furious-super-wet.shtml let me know if anything needs to be changed (like in the press release or booklet or the little blurb) or if it is ready to go live....

Brian John MitchellSaturday, April 6, 2013 at 9:40am PDT

Thanks, if I win I'll get you some usb roll up drums! You might want to check out this magazine that is free - http://tapeop.com/subscriptions/us/create/

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 6, 2013 at 8:54am PDT

Thought you might wanna enter this: https://gc.guitarcenter.com/secure/contests/expo/

Brian John MitchellThursday, April 4, 2013 at 3:15pm PDT

got em, thanks!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 4, 2013 at 2:10pm PDT

okay, emailed it to ya

Brian John MitchellThursday, April 4, 2013 at 1:00pm PDT

jpegs are fine as I'm not printing it, just digital.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 4, 2013 at 12:59pm PDT

oh, what file format for the images?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 4, 2013 at 12:43pm PDT

pt 2

Brian John MitchellThursday, April 4, 2013 at 11:45am PDT

also, should the fifth song be "pt 2" or "part 2" in the actual title?

Brian John MitchellThursday, April 4, 2013 at 11:41am PDT

1500x1500 would be great.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 4, 2013 at 11:33am PDT

Yeah, I can get you some more images. What size?

Brian John MitchellThursday, April 4, 2013 at 11:15am PDT

Yo! Working up the release. Did you have more images than just the one cover image? I usually make a two or three page pdf booklet & also have a band photo available, but some folks go the minimalist route.

Brian John MitchellSunday, March 3, 2013 at 10:48am PST

Yeah, I wrote a moody piece with a little action & he basically only wanted to draw the action panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 3, 2013 at 8:33am PST

hahaha thats not even close to the same story! hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i dunno... $500 for a well-known cover artist... i would say no, but then again it could equal $500 in sales, i guess.

Brian John MitchellSunday, March 3, 2013 at 7:14am PST

Sorry about that man! I just did it like that as an intro thing. To be honest I'm not sure what's up with that guy lately. The last script I sent him was a 48 panels & he asked if he could edit it down a little & I said sure & he said he wanted to do it in 6 panels! Which kinda can't be the same story, you know? I do think it might be an interesting episode to do at some point to have a bunch of guests that completed programs like that saying what they learned or didn't learn, but as you said he might be a little more mainstreamy than SU tends towards. I actually ran into that problem with my current QRD with a few cartoonists who are a bit more serious that don't self-publish at all & are a bit dinosaurs when I'm trying to mine to steal ideas from young eager folks. Sorry about that. For $500, do you think you'd pay to get a cover done by a semi-known cartoonist or maybe even a whole issue drawn by a semi-unknown cartoonist? hrt Brian John Mitchell

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 2, 2013 at 3:32pm PST

Dooooooooooooood! You kinda put me in an awkward spot with Jeremy Johnson. Just between you and I, I think he got the impression that the interview was as good as locked down but honestly it's really not Sequential Underground material. If you have any potential guests for us for the future pleeeeeze don't include them in the suggestion message! Because if they're not a good fit, then I have to explain the show's mission statement to them, explain why they probably wouldn't work on the show, and so on. Gets kinda time consuming.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, January 16, 2013 at 8:37am PST

If when you want to send me the photoshop images of the characters to start doing some SH fan fiction, let me know.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, November 24, 2012 at 7:31pm PST

Let me know, if not I'll maybe hit up David Lawrence. Also, cartoonist lunch this week?

Brian John MitchellSaturday, November 24, 2012 at 7:29pm PST

you want to meet up to watch the game tomorrow?

Brian John MitchellSunday, November 4, 2012 at 9:00am PST

let me know about a date for trying to do a reading. the one you emailed was Thanksgiving.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, November 3, 2012 at 4:30am PDT

Well, it's supposed to be so extreme that it's a caricature of the genre. Guess I'm not playing the hand hard enough? You are an early rising dude.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 3, 2012 at 3:52am PDT

I don't think I read enough auto-bio comics to get it :( It just sounds like a really depressing confession, which I guess is the point, right?

Brian John MitchellFriday, November 2, 2012 at 8:20pm PDT

The Saddest Bastard in the World 1. I feel so alone. 2. I’m tired of it. 3. I just don’t want to be alive. 4. This isn’t a cry for help. 5. Just an explanation of self. 6. Of who I am. 7. Of my place in the world. 8. My purpose ended long ago. 9. Given I ever had a purpose. 10. I’m not driven like a normal man. 11. I take no care in creature comforts. 12. I have no desire for wealth. 13. I don’t even care for food. 14. I gave up my quest for meaning long ago… 15. …settling on numbness & apathy. 16. I decided to help other people. 17. It seemed the only solution. 18. But now everyone I love is dead… 19. …or I’m dead to them. 20. I can’t even figure out if I should try to change anything. 21. Maybe the world is better without me. 22. Just lying in bed the rest of my days. 23. Never leaving my room. 24. Waiting for my damaged heart… 25. …to reach full atrophy. 26. Who would fault me for it? 27. Who would care? 28. Who would know? 29. Anyone? 30. It’s not a tragedy. 31. It’s just my life. 32. Better me than someone else. 33. I’d hate anyone else to feel this way. 34. At least it’s over. 35. I can die alone. 36. The saddest bastard in the world.

Brian John MitchellFriday, November 2, 2012 at 8:20pm PDT

So one of the things I'm not going to get to print that I kinda wanted your opinion on was this script that's supposed to make fun of auto-bio books. Curious on your take....

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 13, 2012 at 7:37am PDT

Nice!!

Brian John MitchellSaturday, October 13, 2012 at 7:19am PDT

oh, I sent you an email & left you a voice mail. I think we got a free table.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 13, 2012 at 5:19am PDT

Dunno!! Also, Shawn might be interested in a three way. Wait... Not THAT kind of three-way

Brian John MitchellFriday, October 12, 2012 at 8:00am PDT

I'll go ahead & get the table, what do you want to be listed as?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 12, 2012 at 5:28am PDT

alright!!! fine!! i'm in :D

Nick MarinoFriday, October 12, 2012 at 5:28am PDT

hahahaha Batmobile vs. R2-D2... GENIUS!!!

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 11, 2012 at 6:03pm PDT

It's $22.50 for half a table. The Batmobile will be there & so will R2-D2. If we make a Batmobile/R2-D2 comic in time, we'll live like kings!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 11, 2012 at 2:55pm PDT

I'm on the fence... CONVINCE ME!

Brian John MitchellWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 6:36pm PDT

Here's Nate's news: "Dude I've been there before and it is DISMAL. I've never tabled but I know people who have and no one has anything good to say about it. Attendence: 100 to 120 people total. Pretty sad. AWESOME quarter bins though." So if you want to do it I'm still down with splitting a table, if you think it isn't worth it, that's fine too.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:38pm PDT

no news from nate yet. I'll see what happens.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:14pm PDT

the price isn't bad. it's in a local mall, and not one that's especially popular nowadays. kinda on its way downhill. but i was at the store's grand re-opening a month ago in the same mall and it was pretty well attended and they did a ton of sales so maybe that would translate to us doing okay at this show. i'm in (barring any catastrophe!). did you hear from nate yet?

Brian John MitchellWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:11pm PDT

that comic & collectors show is $45 for a six foot table & $60 for an eight foot table. If it's just you & me we can probably get by on six feet, but eight feet if we have a third person. It's November 11.

Brian John MitchellFriday, September 7, 2012 at 8:44am PDT

That's weird, those guys hate everything!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 7:50am PDT

Yeah, brand new. They really liked your stuff. I had to turn it off when they started trying to give you marketing advice, but their critique of your content and format was good.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, September 5, 2012 at 10:55pm PDT

Is it new? I have been out of town. They think it sucks right?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 5, 2012 at 9:54am PDT

listening to the Critiquing Comics episode about your work

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 10:36am PDT

you'd think they'd email me about that!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 27, 2012 at 10:25am PDT

yeah i could see the essay being the reason. it said the ALF comment was being held for moderation

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 10:19am PDT

Your comment on the Alf blog didn't seem to come through?

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:31am PDT

& actually it ends up that such an essay is against their terms of service.

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:30am PDT

& I wrote an essay in the intro to the zine about why it was morally responsible to click ads.

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:30am PDT

I put the ad up in all my back issues (previously only on 200 of the 700 interviews), I did two issues in one month, & the ad is also on my review blogs which have a bunch of new content the past couple of months.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:26am PDT

*unsuspend*

Nick MarinoFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:25am PDT

weird. well, hopefully they'll unsuspected it soon. what was the cause of the jump in activity?

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:24am PDT

But they seemed to be accusing me of using a robot, which I didn't....

Brian John MitchellFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:24am PDT

they said it had suspicious increase inactivity. which I agree with actually.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 27, 2012 at 9:15am PDT

why?

Brian John MitchellThursday, July 26, 2012 at 3:22pm PDT

Hah, get this, today Google disabled my adsense account!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 26, 2012 at 3:14pm PDT

that's fantastic.

Brian John MitchellThursday, July 26, 2012 at 12:52pm PDT

excellent insight. Speaking of which, my Google ad money has been insane lately. I need to see if google can tell me if the money's coming from QRD or the blogs. $100 this month somehow!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 26, 2012 at 12:20pm PDT

Blog would have better long term results because if it took off, you could advertise on the website.

Brian John MitchellThursday, July 26, 2012 at 11:47am PDT

With the idea that my final goal would actually be sneaking in my own content that I create & post to YouTube, which do you think would be more succesful - a twitter account promoting the most watched YouTube videos in my city or a blog of the same?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 9:49pm PDT

it's a self-posting thing, so most everything goes up. you might find how this guy is using google ads to research interesting - http://www.promoteyourmusic.net/free-research-tool

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 9:28pm PDT

that's cool it got posted!!

Brian John MitchellTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 5:17pm PDT

you'll get a kick out of this one. I got my kickstarter posted up on the local community board for a local tv station today. It generated 100 video views & zero backers! WTF? My video must suck!

Brian John MitchellTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 10:37am PDT

Sweet. Wrote Nina & the NEGEEK folks. I'll let you know what happens. I'm constantly overbooking myself, but it keeps me out of trouble....

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 5:20am PDT

Interrrrrrrresting about the Kickstarter stuff. I'm curious how it'll work out in the longterm. I don't have any really good ins with the gallery peeps per se, but I also think they're pretty easy to get in touch with. I have one friend named Nina that helps out with a space called Assemble. They typically have interactive and unusual exhibits, not standard gallery stuff. http://assemblepgh.org/ Their email is assemblepgh@gmail The Mr. Roboto Project is a punk / DIY collective that tends to have lo-fi gallery exhibits and likes to pair up the openings with a music performance: http://www.therobotoproject.org/website/ I think those two are pretty good to start with. I'd also recommend checking out the May and June schedule of exhibits and reaching out to the spaces that had stuff going on in those months (they were pretty full then). Some places are proper galleries while others are businesses that have basement and/or backrooms they use for exhibits during the gallery crawl. The show I was talking about is this: http://www.facebook.com/NEGEEKEXPO I don't even know if they have vendor space left. I haven't been planning on going this year since I'm moving in November and my Sept / Oct commitments are enough as it is.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, July 24, 2012 at 1:57am PDT

Dear Nick, So I went through on one of the comic projects on Kickstarter that had over a hundred backers & found a dozen folks that fit the profile I wanted (backed at least 3 comic projects & on Facebook had either at least 400 friends or 100 friends plus one in common) & I asked for the friend add & they all approved. I haven't sent them any messages & don't plan to & I have no idea about if my subtle attempt will work. But maybe worth the two hours it took to do it. I'd suggest maybe going through & doing it a week or so before launching a project & then when they see your name again on Kickstarter they just think, "I've heard of that guy." Nate said he didn't have any ins with the gallery folks. Do you? Let me know about doing that one con together while I'm up there so I can block the date out. Trying to get some things lined up. hrt Brian John Mitchell

Brian John MitchellMonday, July 16, 2012 at 6:12am PDT

I guess if I'm re-writing it, I don't even need it in english!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 16, 2012 at 6:04am PDT

yeah not a bad idea... http://frikydescargas.blogspot.com/2012/05/kaos-y-lobezno-meltdown-nro-1.html There's the first issue in Spanish. :D

Brian John MitchellMonday, July 16, 2012 at 5:53am PDT

isn't it only 4 issues? I guess if I'm planning on cutting it up to scan in & re-script, maybe I should just look for a CBZ anyway?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 16, 2012 at 5:27am PDT

Only the entire run? I can score you a few of the issues for sure but probably not the entire thing.

Brian John MitchellSunday, July 15, 2012 at 6:41pm PDT

Hey, If you seen the entire run of Wolverine/Havok Meltdown that would end up costing $2 or less can you pick it up for me for this project I want to do with it (a remix of the entire thing basically)? Not sure if I'll ever actually get it done, but I like to think I will at some point.... hrt Brian John Mitchell

Brian John MitchellFriday, June 29, 2012 at 8:00am PDT

yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. i'm finally ready to cross over into political commentary mixed with scientific factual and social information

Brian John MitchellThursday, June 28, 2012 at 11:16pm PDT

Perfect chance for Destructotron to make a huge splash. http://www.ucsusa.org/scientific_integrity/science_idol/

Brian John MitchellThursday, June 28, 2012 at 12:36am PDT

Some local weekly paper that's web only (they have a bunch of them here in my area) asked to interview me about my Kickstarter project about the puzzle boxes. Which I guess is awesome. However it's odd that they like it enough to interview me, but not enough to financially support it. I don't know if your interested or not, but here's a not for sharing link with all the current musical shit - http://www.silbermedia.com/pressdownload01/2012.shtml

I should be on Skype around 8pm. Here's some links that may be relevant to what you want to discuss... http://www.silbermedia.com/kid-comics/ http://www.silbermedia.com/puzzleboxes/ http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/462361469/silber-mini-comics-collection http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/462361469/silber-bottle-comics http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/462361469/soma-puzzle-boxes The Kid Comics might be my September Kickstarter. The puzzle box thing is interesting because I made the webpage for it & announced it everywhere for zero sales over 6 weeks & then on Kickstarter I sold ten in a day. hrt Brian John Mitchell

Brian John MitchellTuesday, June 19, 2012 at 9:56pm PDT

lol. yeah, man I'm down. just text me on my phone if I'm not on skype at the right time.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 19, 2012 at 9:29pm PDT

sooooooooooo tonight's sequential underground was supposed to have four hosts and then two of them cancelled last minute!!! anyway, you still down for Weds 8 PM?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 7, 2012 at 6:38am PDT

actually, i'm gonna go with the ms. marvel thing after all.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, June 5, 2012 at 8:10am PDT

I think I figured out how Rolf/Dtron becomes Todd/Dtron again. He takes Rolf's space ship to outer space & exposes himself to cosmic rays & becomes The Thang (kinda like The Thing) & eventually the rocky exterior falls off & he's Todd again. Or maybe he kills himself but comes out of Mind's Eye's vagina fully formed.....

Brian John MitchellFriday, June 1, 2012 at 8:32pm PDT

pretty boring, but free... http://youtu.be/gEhnGkaK8Ns

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 31, 2012 at 9:36pm PDT

Let me know. I still need to look into doing that residency thing up there...

Nick MarinoThursday, May 31, 2012 at 7:57pm PDT

yeah, me too. i meant i might need to change from monday after all, not to the day after. i think the episode will just have to be me and you and we can record it whenever. i'm going to cali next week, so maybe when i get back???

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 31, 2012 at 12:56pm PDT

That Tuesday is a total no go for me if it was just changing the day of the week or whatever.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 31, 2012 at 12:26pm PDT

*after all

Nick MarinoThursday, May 31, 2012 at 12:26pm PDT

kay, i might need to change that day after... my goddamn cohosts are being so fucking indecisive!!!

Brian John MitchellThursday, May 31, 2012 at 11:18am PDT

The one in four days should be fine. Not so sure of the one after.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 31, 2012 at 5:58am PDT

next monday night... good or bad for you?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 6:47am PDT

I don't have any explicit plans until Saturday & Sunday. So literally anytime you say I can make myself available.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 5:10am PDT

haha okay so when is that???

Brian John MitchellMonday, May 21, 2012 at 8:27pm PDT

yeah, mostly whenever is good for me.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 21, 2012 at 7:47pm PDT

yo, so i finally got a response from my co-hosts. they're kinda burned out on guests -- we've had a lot lately. but i'd still like to talk to you about the kickstarter success and such. maybe sometime later this week or over the weekend?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 6:14pm PDT

I emailed them just now. I should know by early tomorrow. Haven't heard any of the Sim stuff but it sounds like a good idea to me. I never watched Mutant X. It always confused me because it bore no resemblance to the series of the same name.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:58pm PDT

Mutant X - more visually pleasing, but just as unpleasing in general so far....

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:57pm PDT

He's supposedly stopping his tv show & his own comic & only doing covers & five page shorts for indie creators.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:56pm PDT

oh, not that you're interested, but have you heard these weird Dave Sim rumors?

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:56pm PDT

yeah, that should be fine. just confirm it before hand & I'll write it on my hand with a sharpie

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:55pm PDT

If it ends up working out for this week's podcast, how are you with Tuesday night at 8 PM? That's our normal recording time.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:53pm PDT

I don't think it's much worse than a lot of that other shit from then. Steel, Smallville, Batman & Robin, etc. At least the Gen X thing had a weird / interesting subplot with that guy's idea to advertise in people's brains. I mean, it was definitely a mess. But I think most of that comic book adaptation stuff was messy in the mid to late 90s. Except for the first Blade movie, I guess.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:52pm PDT

i'm going to attempt that mutant x show I never watched while continuing comic layouts....

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:50pm PDT

Oh, I just "watched" that Generation X thing & listened to the podcast about it. That thing is a mediocre mess... but to be honest I'm not sure how much worse it really is than Smallville if there was a decent print of it or whatever.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:49pm PDT

hahaha NO!!! i never was!! don't try to pull a Jedi mind trick on me.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:49pm PDT

I forget, are you doing that Ms Marvel thing where the baby is going to be a time traveller of its own father?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:48pm PDT

lemme check in with my SU dudes and see what the deal is. i'll get back with you ASAP.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:48pm PDT

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:47pm PDT

Oh, I think I'm available to get my gameface on for SU this week if you want/need it.

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:46pm PDT

Or maybe his dad!

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:46pm PDT

then instead of pregnant Mind's Eye in a bikini, you get D-Tron in a bikini!

Destruct-O-Tron's bikini car wash!!!!

Brian John MitchellSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:37pm PDT

Totally. That's what Destruct-o-tron is going to do to raise money for the baby....

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 11, 2012 at 8:20am PDT

Oh, & I've got an idea for a new Kickstarter that I'd love to get your insight on. But you never answer your phone. Right now I'm on the road, so my phone service is potty at best.

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 11, 2012 at 8:18am PDT

I'd love to do it, but I just need to make sure I'm available.

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 11, 2012 at 8:17am PDT

when is it?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 11, 2012 at 8:15am PDT

Coooool! Keep me posted about that. Interesting in joining us on the next SU or the one after it?

Brian John MitchellFriday, May 11, 2012 at 8:09am PDT

Thanks sir. Let me know if you need any of my materials. Oh, the last episode of SU messed with me a little because you were using the dude's name (Brian) so often & I kept thinking I was supposed to respond! Also I might be coming up for a stay at the cartoonist house at some point. We'll see what happens.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 11, 2012 at 7:14am PDT

Don't worry about it! Consider it my investment in Silber Media.

Brian John MitchellWednesday, May 9, 2012 at 6:43pm PDT

i owe you $10 for the earnings on XLK via Kickstarter. Let me know if you want payoff in comics or via paypal or what.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 9:32am PDT

Hehehe the voting ended last night. But thx for trying to vote again!!! Much appreciated.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 8:51am PDT

Sir, I believe that website stopped letting me vote every 24 hours. The last couple of times I've gone to it, the voting form doesn't come up, just the results. You having the same problem?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 3:32pm PDT

XLK #2, not gonna lie. I forgot about it. Gimme a week and I'll give you an update. Super Haters is coming back in a week and a half or so.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 3:25pm PDT

PS - How is XLK#2 doing & how long is the SH hiatus going to last? Should I make a back catalog of Fan Fiction is case it happens again?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 3:24pm PDT

Cool, my schedule is kinda weird the next couple months, but we'll make something work soonish....

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 3:22pm PDT

let's just plan on casting about it in two weeks or a month. i'll be in touch!!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 12:17pm PDT

i'm waiting back on a couple of email replies, and then i'll let you know what's up!!!! the more i think about it, the more i want to talk to you about it when you're in the heat of constructing 1000 books :) i'm gonna go pledge right now and then share the link on FB.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 12:02pm PDT

lol. I actually am already in my Kickstarter aftermath (I doubled my funding goal already). The thing I was hoping to mainly sell (the digital versions for ten bucks, which only require an email to fulfill) didn't do well, instead people opted for my perhaps under priced full runs & box sets. So now I'm needing to stain a bunch of wood boxes & construct literally 1000 books. Luckily I don't have a day job right now! I'm good with doing it tonight or another time, just let me know either way. hrt Brian John Mitchell

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 11:29am PDT

maybe it'd be better to have you on a future episode (two weeks or a month from now) to talk about how things are going now that your kickstarter's been successful. i mean, everyone talks a lot during their campaigns, but i almost never hear anyone talk about the kickstarter aftermath.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 11:26am PDT

we're trying to bring on another guest as well, so i think a slightly later start time would work out well. also, i'm still working out the details of the topic, so things might be weird........

Brian John MitchellTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 10:52am PDT

If it could be pushed back a little later it would be good for me. A buddy of mine (who is actually drawing a comic for me about a walrus playing saxophone for money after the apocalypse) is coming over for dinner. I can make it for 8, but I'd be kinda kicking him out the door.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 8:53am PDT

we like to record at 8 pm. nothing is set in stone yet -- we're just throwing some ideas around for tonight.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 8:42am PDT

Let me know your timing for recording & I'll check what exactly is going on.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:41am PDT

haha oh man i barely know anything about the walking dead. i've never read an issue of the book and i've only seen the first season of the show. what do you have going on tonight? we're recording a new sequential underground, and i thought it might be good to get you in there and promote the kickstarter a little bit more.

Brian John MitchellSunday, March 25, 2012 at 9:39am PDT

I'll let you know. It was weird & awkward. Because the guy wasn't actually familiar with my work enough to talk about it. He was just like "why the format?" & "how did you get to work with Sim?" But I thought the Walking Dead part was the bit ou'd be interested in....

Nick MarinoSunday, March 25, 2012 at 7:13am PDT

I'm looking forward to the podcast interview!!!

Brian John MitchellFriday, March 23, 2012 at 10:31pm PDT

think you might find this interesting if not too articulate http://silbermedia.com/blog/?p=2395

Brian John MitchellTuesday, February 21, 2012 at 10:07pm PST

That's cool. Just remind me when the time comes that you're available.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 21, 2012 at 9:07pm PST

i'd be down for both of those topics. however, i'm super busy from now until mid-march (i leave this friday and don't get back to march 13th), so it'll be at least three weeks until i can record with you.

Brian John MitchellTuesday, February 21, 2012 at 7:47pm PST

Let me know about doing a podcast for the silber blog. I have two things I'd want to focus on for potentially two different episodes. One on social media strategy & one on constant content. Or maybe that should be one episode as they kinda relate?

Brian John MitchellSunday, February 5, 2012 at 11:30am PST

let me know your potential times for doing the destruct-o-cast thing. Construction on the house weekdays, so evenings are better than during the day.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 9, 2012 at 1:56pm PST

That's fantastically ridiculous. Alas, I've already plotted out Mind's Eye's pregnancy, and what she decides to do is a pretty big plot point that I have planned.

Brian John MitchellMonday, January 9, 2012 at 1:50pm PST

Yes. I didn't know if you'd get the reference! & then it could be revealed that Todd isn't actually related to her (which I don't even know how to get that to happen).

Nick MarinoMonday, January 9, 2012 at 1:33pm PST

Hahahaha are you parodying the classic Ms. Marvel / Immortus plot?

Brian John MitchellMonday, January 9, 2012 at 1:28pm PST

So I'm really getting into this storyline & I have twisted ideas for an eventual follow-up depending on how it ends. My idea is that Destuct-o-tron's dad impregnated Mind's Eye & that something happens where he has to put her in armor & send her back in time & the baby is actually D's dad (so he is his own father) & Mind's Eye & Destruct-o-granny are the same entity. Which I guess also means she's having sex with her own children & grandchildren? Hmmm... maybe I haven't thought it through well enough.....

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 8:07pm PST

Soundcloud = good because it has integration with nearly every social media site. Bandcamp = whatever. i think their 200 download limit is stupid.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 7:36pm PST

Yeah, I don't know how that shit works. I have 11 followers & 500 tweets in 2 days. We'll see how this experiment goes. Also, you might want to post your story about music on www.MusicThinkTank.com Also I am curious of your take on Soundcloud & Bandcamp.

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 7:26pm PST

dunno what to say! they're both plenty small enough now. regardless, thx for including me and letting me know what the problem was.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 6:25pm PST

The podcast one went through now, but the main one didn't....

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 5:49pm PST

i reduced our feed size. it should clock in somewhere around 350-400 kb now, both the standard feed and the podcasts feed. sorry it didn't work the first time around!

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 4:07pm PST

here's the error it gives - "A valid feed URL is required: Feed exceeds 512KB size limit."

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 1:19pm PST

i dunno what to say! the AudioShocker feeds are valid and all, but maybe some of the content in it doesn't sit well with that service. we occasionally embed youtube stuff, so maybe that's a problem??? i dunno.

Brian John MitchellSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 1:14pm PST

neither the main one nor the podcast one would be accepted in dlvr.it as a valid RSS feed. Don't know what that's about. Did you see the twitter comic newsbot thing I made? I guess www.twitter.com/silbercomics ? We'll see if anyone cares about it & if it really starts to generate followers as people smarter than me suggest of such things....

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 31, 2011 at 10:49am PST

oh man i hate to say it but leaving me messages is no good. my new phone doesn't work so well in my apartment, so im missing calls left and right, and i haven't even activated my voicemail on my new phone yet hahaha. i sorta hate voicemail. i should just take off my message and tell people to email me instead. which RSS feed did you have trouble with?

Brian John MitchellFriday, December 30, 2011 at 9:08pm PST

left you a long message about some stuff. also I left a message the other day about not being able to get your RSS feed to work in dlvr.it for my tweeting robot about comic news....

Nick MarinoFriday, December 30, 2011 at 9:01pm PST

sure, feel free to say whatever. it's public now so i'm totally okay with it. thx for asking ahead of time.

Brian John MitchellFriday, December 30, 2011 at 8:56pm PST

you comfortable with me talking about you abandoning iTunes & linking to your page in my blog?

Brian John MitchellFriday, October 28, 2011 at 11:05am PDT

well, his girlfriend is the one we did the Dazzler sketches for, so it makes sense.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 28, 2011 at 6:45am PDT

looks like dazzler... i just thought it was a weird choice... i guess he needed characters who had unique face/head stuff going on.

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 27, 2011 at 9:09pm PDT

i suppose it could be a villain as well, but I don't know who.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 8:37pm PDT

miss marvel does the domino mask so it's gotta b dazzler over her!

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 27, 2011 at 8:26pm PDT

i don't know if that's dazzler or miss marvel.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 8:08pm PDT

who's he in the pool with? dazzler and enchantress?

Brian John MitchellThursday, October 27, 2011 at 7:22pm PDT

Brian John MitchellWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 12:53pm PDT

Yeah, more or less. But I think he's more a super spy than a mercenary.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 11:15am PDT

Hahaha yeah I know. I just don't want to commit to something that I won't deliver on (I mean, it's bad enough that I only thumbnailed half of the damn Deadpool thing...) So you mean that the XLK mercenary has to capture a woman and make her his captive girlfriend because he can't meet one in a more normal way?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 3:59pm PDT

Well, I want to make an issue about having trouble meeting a girlfriend & ending up capturing her & having her as a girlfriend. Then we can get into the clone story. I mean, you know I have comics that are out with an artist for 18 months on a regular basis right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 1:17pm PDT

i'm not sure what it's name was... it might be called Balance... i mean, it's a totally different thing from what you do in that it was just a single thin strip of paper folded into a crinkle. it's by my friend juan (and i think the name Crinkled Comics is just a coincidence, although he does make a ton of other small minicomics... all weird sizes). you might dig this: http://www.yourwebcomics.com/ i just signed up with them. basically, you sign up with Facebook,, they approve your account, and then you have the ability to post content to their site through their wordpress blog. pretty simple. okay, as for XLK, i'm down for that. but... how long are we talking? realistically, i probably only have two or three issues in me at this point between all the other projects i have going on. and, honestly, i think people really dug the self-contained satirical nature of the first XLK issue, so i think it would be awesome to keep that tone. what do you think? hahaha am i making this too difficult?

Brian John MitchellTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 12:16pm PDT

doing my part to get us all on top. so I'm planning on re-writing the dp script into an xlk script, but it means writing a couple more issues of xlk to set the backstory (vampire girlfriend). it's kinda good in my head because it's turning into a nick fury/hellboy type of thing which I think is way more interesting than a deadpool thing. However I would still be down for an ultra-mini featuring some mainstream character. I mean, there's the Banner's guide to girls thing we discussed, but I think that would work best as 1/4 or 1/2 size & I'm thinking of doing something 1/4 the size of xlk. Speaking of which, was the really small comic you saw the one called micro-erotica? Literally the size of a postage stamp. Kinda piss me off for existing....

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 11:24am PDT

thx!!!

Yeah, I got the message late or I would've sent it to you earlier. I hear a mixed bag of good & bad about that place, but it might be a way for you to promote some shit.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 31, 2011 at 7:37am PDT

awwwww boooooo i missed this!

Brian John MitchellSaturday, July 30, 2011 at 4:11pm PDT

Hey, gang, Just wanted to send out a quick reminder about our member drive tomorrow (Saturday from 8 to 11 p.m. at 4812 Liberty Ave.). Dress your best and come check out our new space before we officially open in September; mingle; browse new titles; sample our future menu items; bid on raffle items donated by Phipps Conservatory, Kelly Strayhorn Theater, and the Mattress Factory; have a drink (alcoholic or non!); and consider becoming a member of the Big Idea Cooperative Bookstore and Cafe, Plus, flirt with all the cute anarchists in the room! See you tomorrow! Love, The Big Idea

Nick MarinoFriday, July 15, 2011 at 4:07pm PDT

i'll check the site out. it might be because i'm on a ton of social media promoting my stuff everyday. for the twitter stuff, we shoukd definitely talk about that over the phone. it's simple but complicated.

Brian John MitchellThursday, July 14, 2011 at 7:14am PDT

Cool. Maybe I should write another XLK. One day when I have some free time. That PeerIndex site gives you much better numbers than me & I'm not sure why. Also I'm curious what you've done to promote your ton of Twitter profiles & how you manage the different ones.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 14, 2011 at 6:26am PDT

It's digital only.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, January 7, 2010 at 6:57am PST

it's getting printed at 11 X 17? whoa!

1083738119@facebook.comWednesday, January 6, 2010 at 9:20pm PST

Dear Nick, 11 inches by 17 inches at 72 dpi. leave whatever border you feel is appropriate. hrt BJM

dirty shit is the second link. of course you can always listen to other dirty stuff. i'll let you pick what you want - it's all here under "Music" http://www.myspace.com/nickmarinoart - there's probably 5 (?) music pages (i can't remember) with songs. thx for the bday wish. that means a lot, you shithead.

599703202@facebook.comWednesday, July 18, 2007 at 5:29pm PDT

FELIZ CUMPLEANOS CEROTE!!!!!! thats guatemalan for happy birthday shithead...but the shithead part isnt mean -that is what friends call each other like dude or something... ill check that shit out...and no, im not easily offended so send that dirty shit right over

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, July 18, 2007 at 7:22am PDT

haha well i'm always playing music http://www.myspace.com/nikfurious - just not always the music i want to play or with the people i want to play with. those pics are older i think, maybe about a year ago. i've probably been in 15 different bands in the past 10 years. if you're not easily offended, check this out - http://www.myspace.com/unlicensed - i'll be recording more of that stuff come august.

599703202@facebook.comMonday, July 16, 2007 at 10:54am PDT

ok...ill do my best i thought i saw pics of you playing music with peeps on your facething...is this not having anyone to play music with thing another moronic rumor you are trying to start...because if so, thats just over the line man

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, July 14, 2007 at 8:16pm PDT

sailing and playing music. sounds like what i do except i don't sail and there's no one around to play music with right now. hopefully that will change soon. although i doubt i'll start sailing. thx about the comics. btw, i'm trying to start a moronic rumor that the latest fad is having your high school reunion after 8 years instead of 10 (don't let it slip that this is fake! i'm letting you in on this private practical joke!!!). the idea is to mention it to a couple of FHS people who like to gossip, and then see if it comes back to me. tell someone!

599703202@facebook.comSaturday, July 7, 2007 at 11:04am PDT

oh i meant to say a million years ago that your comics kick some serious a...but then they always did

599703202@facebook.comSaturday, July 7, 2007 at 10:55am PDT

essentially every boy i hang with plays the guitar (i don't have any girlfriends who live in the area don't ask me why), plus one or two also play drums etc (actually the most talented is my ex-boyfriend who plays like everything)...they aren't like a band (though they have a band name which is the sound pbbb - so when someone farts they say, "oh I love that band"). They just get together and "jam" - i do nothing-sometimes i'll grab a harmonica or random instrument and add some noise to the mix but i suck hard core. I keep on saying i'm going to learn an instrument but i never have time so i tend to start things and not finish them. nothing too exciting, sorry to disappoint. and as for the sailing...i basically only agree to steer when all the boys want to go get high in cabin...maybe that's why they keep me around...you know besides the view (jk)

4801997@facebook.comFriday, July 6, 2007 at 9:19pm PDT

that sounds pretty intense. tell me more about the music

599703202@facebook.comWednesday, July 4, 2007 at 2:37pm PDT

I am kicking it old school in Guatemala at the moment. I just finished up my second year of graduate school at Brown University (PhD program in Political Science) and am spending my second summer in a row here in Guate. Last summer I was reviewing Spanish and traveling around but this time I am actually doing some preliminary research for my dissertation...which is both incredibly difficult and incredibly interesting. I have roughly 3 years left in my program...hopefully not more but it depends on how long it takes me to do field research and write my dissertation-one year of which will be doing research here in Guate. in my nonexistent free time I run and hang out with a bunch of silly boys who like to drink, go sailing and play music...none of which I do very well.

this all looks good I'll bring some fliers, a mini comic and my pages eotu so people can flip though should i bring some drinks for you guys i have cans of brisk tea. i will be there around 630 as well

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 7:03am PDT

By the way, Nick is correct, the parking garage is free in the evenings after 5:00, I believe.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 6:48am PDT

good look. i made a flyer... but it selfishly showcases only my own stuff!!! i might try to bring my laptop and show examples of the digital steps involved in the process (show them a page of pencils, a page of inks, a page of tones, and a page with letters, etc.). hopefully Colin can hook me up with a VGA cord...

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 6:06am PDT

I'm not bringing too much, but I'll have on hand some Evergreen postcards, CBP cards, and copies of Dead Love & Blue Wraith #1 for people to flip through with their greasy pizza fingers. ;) I was going to bring buttons, but I'm running low and I need them for SPACE. I was going to try to work on a flyer with all of our sites on it if you guys are okay with that. That way people will have something to walk away with that has all of our info on it.

667251308@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 5:52am PDT

I'm bringing "North" books to give away. I still have a stack of them. I'm also bringing a few pages to show. That'll be part of the process. I'm assuming the people there will be fans of printed comics and not too familiar with what a page looks like before it's printed. I'm also bringing 1 of each of the books I have drawn so people can put it all together. I'll try to get there as quick as I can. I probably won't find my way into Doherty Hall till 6:45. The main thing to remember though is we're getting free pizza, so we should just have fun with it! Free pizza!! :)

784978277@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 4:57am PDT

Duke, that sounds like the way to go! I'll be getting off work early, praying for no rush hour traffic since I'm out by the airport, I plan to be at the campus by 6:30 as well. Although, I'm not sure where Doherty Hall actually is! I'll remind Shawn today to bring some spare minis and flyers! This is gonna be cool! I'm a little nervous though, I won't lie, but this'll be a good time!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, April 12, 2010 at 9:19pm PDT

great plan, Duke. i think the parking garage is free after six, too... or was that the way it used to be and not the way it is now, Dan? as for mics, i got the gear... just no table stands, so we'd have to hold them (i have three mics). but it would probably just complicate things to even try and bring them. you guys bringing any goodies? my books still aren't done, but i was gonna bring some promo flyers and such.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, April 12, 2010 at 9:00pm PDT

Duke, you are the man with the plan! I think that's a great way to break down the evening. FYI, this week is CMU's Spring Carnival which means the parking spaces with the meters are blocked off and half the lot is taken up by carnival rides. You should still be able to park in the lot, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. I figure on getting back to campus by 6:00-6:15 and getting to the room by 6:30. Also, be prepared to not have microphones. Colin sent me a message that he was "trying to locate one". Even if he gets one, sharing one mic between 5 of us is going to be awkward. It's a small enough room that we can probably get away without using it.

667251308@facebook.comMonday, April 12, 2010 at 8:29pm PDT

Hey dudes! Is everyone ready for the panel and comic talk?? No? I was thinking we should have a game plan before we go in so we're not all wondering who is going to do what. I was thinking we could chunk this out in 30 minute intervals. We spend the first 30 minutes talking about "who" we are and "what" we do. Each one of us I'm sure can talk up to 5 minutes about ourselves and our books. Bam. That's 25 minutes right there. The next 30 minutes we talk about our process. The "how" we do it. Seems like this would be the meat and potatoes of the panel. This is what we can bring to the table as independent comic creators. With the last 30 minutes we talk about "where" we will be and where our books can be found. This is when we can open it up to question & answer, although I think we will have q&a throughout the entire panel. So what do you guys think? I think it's better to have a rough outline of what we want to talk about before we go in. See you then! Scott

1550476785@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 12:42pm PDT

Great idea! I'd kind of like to drink beer during the geek meet...

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 12:24pm PDT

either are great for me, but we should remember that football season is almost upon us and that will make sundays tough for a lot of peeps (not me, but a lot of others).

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 12:07pm PDT

Given enough notice, Sundays are pretty good for me.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 12:06pm PDT

I agree, it's certainly easy enough to reserve the room. The only problem would be what if only two people show up? Then they have to spend $50 between them. I think if no one has the room reserved & no one is currently in it, we can just use it.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:57am PDT

What days usually work best for you all? Saturdays? Sundays?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:51am PDT

yeah, i agree with Dan, and if there's enough peeps i say we should use the conference room again!

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:34am PDT

count me in too that sounds fun

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:32am PDT

I think it's a good idea Link, I think meeting once a month or so is very doable. It's going to sound like I work for Panera, but I think the Oakland location would be a great place to meet; it's pretty central to everyone, it's casual, no one would be bugging us to leave, we can push tables together, etc.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:17am PDT

yeah i'm down. Shawn, Seth, and i (and sometimes Dan) actually do our own comics meetup thing every Sunday when we hang at Kiva Han... but that's more of an art + hang out thing, so yeah, i'm down for a less artsy version!

1150803855@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 11:13am PDT

I'd be game for that, totally.

619871688@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 10:45am PDT

Comic Swap was awesome and I got to see a lot of folks I normally don't see very often, and even meet a few new faces. Well, Seth mentioned something that got me thinking. He said something along the lines of "It's been, what, since the Comic Con since I saw you? Geez, we need to do stuff like this more often, maybe not Comic Swap, but just hang out." So, I propose some sort of "Geek Meet" (I'm up for better name suggestions that won't be confused for a nerd Sausage-Fest) where maybe we all just meet up at a bar/restaurant/whatever and just chill out and BS on something like maybe an every other week or monthly basis or quarterly or something like that? I figure that could be fun, we could meet at places like Dave & Busters, Quaker Steak & Lube (Team Bucket Tuesdays), a Coffee Shop or a bar somewhere or whatever. Yes? No? Maybe? PS. I sent this to whomever I could think of off the top of my head that I was friends with. I'm sure Dan knows more local geeks than I do. :)

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, December 8, 2010 at 6:40am PST

Sounds good. It doesn't matter to me specifically, it was just an idea. Since we were talking about printing on the last SU podcast, it occurred to me that keeping it in multiples of 4 would help when the time came to put it all together.

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, December 8, 2010 at 6:35am PST

how about this how bout 5 pages or less for story now the latter is i already told jason bender alright to do his at 6 i think thats okay

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 8, 2010 at 6:01am PST

i'm down with capping submissions... but four is too short for me! shawn and i have one submission that's already five pages, and i have a second one that's five pages. however... the thing by shawn and i is also gonna be submitted for Millar's CLiNT mag and we should probably hold off on printing it until we know it's not going in CLiNT.

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, December 7, 2010 at 9:32pm PST

Sure, I'll help out. My only suggestion is keeping all the submissions to exactly 4 pages, for a couple of reasons. One, I think it'll make it easy to lay out the book. If you leave it up to the contributors to come up with whatever they want you may have an odd number of pages. Two, I think four pages is a reasonable amount of material, something a lot of these people can get done in a short amount of time. That way you may get lucky and not have to chase after people for their work. Thoughts?

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, December 7, 2010 at 9:17pm PST

hey guys if you wanted to chip in on printing on this anthology if you do that's cool i don't care where we get it printed if not that's still cool just thought i'd ask and if you have any suggestions on the anthology let me know

Thanks so much for the info! I do know Jim a bit. Not that well, but still well enough to have chatted with him at a few comics events. Anyway, my collaborator and I ended up signing with Action Lab, so the book will probably be out sometime later this year. Around the time our first issue is in Previews, I'd love to email you and Dave a PDF of the book to see if it's something that you'd like to carry in the shop. Also, maybe in the late summer or early fall, if you're open to it I'd really like to call you up and pick your brain about ways I could reach out to retailers about ordering the comic. You have a great weekend too!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 13, 2014 at 2:41pm PDT

Hi Jeff!!! How's the Burgh nowadays? I'm writing because I'd really like to pick your brain about something. Just between you and I, I may have an opportunity to publish a book through Action Lab in the near future. I'm curious if, from your perspective as a retailer, you have any opinions about Action Lab's products. I know that's kind of an odd request and I totally understand if you don't have much insight to offer about them! But I really respect your opinion and I know you stay pretty keyed into what your customers like, so that's why I wanna know what you think. Do Phantom's customers buy many Action Lab books? Do you know if you order most of their series or just a select few? Also, I'm curious about the interest in their collected editions / graphic novels... do they sell okay for you guys or are they not even on the radar? Any insight you have to offer is extremely appreciated!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 3:15pm PDT

Oh yeah I mixed those up. Sorry. Yeah I'll tell him to do that if he needs it. And don't worry! I didn't forget about the electricity stuff. I have a couple extension cords and a couple power strips.

Geofferi Von DoraFriday, May 6, 2011 at 2:18pm PDT

The CMU lot may be free but that's a bit of a walk away. I'm talking about the Carnegie Museum lot on Forbes, the one that is at the intersection of Forbes and Craig, it's goes down and around the museum. If you guys park there I'll pay for it, $5 books I think.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 1:12pm PDT

Okay, that's what I'll tell him to do. Actually... isn't that lot free on the weekends... or did they change that? Sorry for my delayed response, he wasn't very clear on if he'll have the car or not, so I was gonna check in with him later. But I think the CMU lot is a good solution.

Geofferi Von DoraFriday, May 6, 2011 at 12:43pm PDT

If he needs parking I'd suggest using the Carnegie Museum public parking lot on Forbes. It's real close to the store and is only $5, which I'll reimburse him for.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 10:26am PDT

Shawn will be over here in a sec. I'll ask him. My guess is yes for him.

Geofferi Von DoraFriday, May 6, 2011 at 8:44am PDT

Yeah, we should be there tooling around before so just knock on the door? Will any of the other guys need parking?

Nick MarinoFriday, May 6, 2011 at 8:39am PDT

not me! what time do you open tomorrow? 10?

Geofferi Von DoraFriday, May 6, 2011 at 8:37am PDT

Do any of yinz guys need parking for tomorrow?

I'm going, and like Nick, I'm more than willing to pitch in on gas. Shawn asked if I wanted to tag along with him and Steph, and that's cool with me if they're still going in their own vehicle. Depending on when we plan to go, I *may* have a place to stay already, and will likely ship a box of materials ahead, so I don't have to tote it along. I'll try to get details soon, in case I need to share a room with someone. Thanks for staying on top of this Nick.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 31, 2011 at 1:23pm PST

okay wicked i'm down for something like that. i forgot to put Scott on the message ahhhh! is there anyone else from our crew that's going? Toff told me he was going to C2E2 instead, and i think Mav still hasn't gotten a table.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, January 31, 2011 at 1:19pm PST

Scott & I were talking about this a month or so ago when the SPACE discussions first started. We each figured we could drive and take two people plus con boxes/overnight bags. I don't want to speak for Scott in case anything changed for him, but I can still do it. It worked out pretty well last year when I drove Nick, Shawn & myself and I can do it again.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 31, 2011 at 1:15pm PST

SPACE is getting real close and we need to figure out rooms / transportation for sure. just wanted to get the conversation started. i have no car but will toss in for a big chunk of gas and i might have a slightly cheaper room hook up too.

Hey all, here's a Project Basement update -- this volume's final hate sketch went up today (it's my modern movie Batman). Next week, I'm gonna finish up PB v2 with a double header -- one by Mav and one by Wayne (so send me any quotes you'd like to go up with them, guys). AND THEN THE FOLLOWING WEEK... PB v3 begins! If I have sketches, that is. Byron sent me one a week ago and it looks great, but that's all I have so far. The theme, if you remember, is going to be "Costumes and Powers" (or something that sounds better than that) and basically the idea is to draw a costume or power you've always wanted to draw (OR WANTED TO HAVE!), and tell me why. Any questions? Thx for all your fantastic submissions. I've really enjoyed posting your art and it's always so exciting to get an email with a new sketch attached.

Dan GreenwaldFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:55am PST

(groan)

Wayne WiseFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:51am PST

And to think... I created them out of whole cloth.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:48am PST

Amazing. You've got a whole team right there. The Dead Threads? No... not badass enough...

Wayne WiseFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:41am PST

I tried to go with the Image ideal of power words. Powerpants and Firecrotch! Bloodshoe! Deathbelt!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:36am PST

YES! I LOVE IT! haha that'd actually be a fun theme... new characters instead of existing ones.

Wayne WiseFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:35am PST

Time to unveil my new character... Powerpants!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 14, 2011 at 7:13am PST

hahaha maybe "Powers and Pants"? is that a good theme name??

Byron WintonThursday, January 13, 2011 at 10:13pm PST

Powers... that's gonna be tough to depict. I like a challenge.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 10, 2011 at 3:56pm PST

i'm thinking the next theme is gonna be (something suggested by Wayne) -- aesthetic. but i don't like that word to sum it up, so maybe another word is in order. but anyway the concept will be to draw a costume or power that you really like or have always wanted to draw but maybe never had a reason to draw it before. thoughts? suggestions for a good theme name?

Byron WintonMonday, January 10, 2011 at 3:04pm PST

Why do you feel the need to publish them? I like that you post them... keep that up though. If you get the itchin to publish, then make it a 'best of' type of thing. I'll still submit... if you'll have me. An announcement or sorts for a themed PB when you have them wouldn't hurt neither.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 9, 2011 at 7:56pm PST

I've got four more weeks worth of sketches and then I'll be ready to wrap up Project Basement v2. I'd love to do another collection, but honestly, I've sold one v1 (!!!) since last August, so it's not cost effective for me to do another printing. However, I am game for some other type of collection, namely something digital. Maybe a CD collection? CDs are cheap and I like experimenting with unconventional comics formats. If I did that, I'd want to include some audio on there, so I'm thinking quick interviews about the sketches and characters. Might be too much work, but then again it might be something great! Thoughts? I'm 50/50 right now on doing a v3 of Project Basement. I enjoy putting it together, but I don't want to do it if people are feeling burned out on the idea. How's everyone feeling about PB right now? Psyched to submit more drawings or not?

oh man it's so weird it's your birthday today because you were in my dream last night! i was getting married and you were one of my groomsmen (well, obviously not a groomsman, a groomswoman, i guess) and you were helping me film this video for the reception... it gets kind of complicated and weird-dream-confusing beyond that, but anyway, i thought i'd share it with you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Seth Fronzoli
Shawn AtkinsThursday, January 13, 2011 at 7:52am PST

it hasnt updated since november but i imagine its cheap i guess pat lewis was there sometime in the past so thats some cred i think

Nick MarinoThursday, January 13, 2011 at 7:50am PST

nice, looks good!

Shawn AtkinsThursday, January 13, 2011 at 2:47am PST

i found this something we can do next year and its close http://www.thegenghiscon.com/

Conrad Knapp, Nick Marino, Zach Wendell
Conrad KnappWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 8:20pm PDT

That would be cool with me! Redid the whole thing!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:29am PDT

yeah i think that would really enhance everything. haha what if in two weeks you get a link from me and i'm like "hey guys here's the groundscore track!" and you go to my site and it's all overdubs of me redoing every instrument? hahaha

Zach WendellWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:29am PDT

Lol. Bambi Lives: the Comeback Kid-style SKA band!

Conrad KnappWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:26am PDT

Could you add in some mob vocals and brass section as well?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:39am PDT

okay, it's a plan. i'll probably give the audio a quick remaster too.

Conrad KnappTuesday, April 12, 2011 at 9:40pm PDT

Agreed.

Zach WendellTuesday, April 12, 2011 at 7:07am PDT

Any and all proceeds must go to the Pigface Foundation. Otherwise, I'm cool with it!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2011 at 6:49am PDT

how would you guys feel if i posted the groundscore album on my nickmarino.net blog? i'd do it one track a week until the entire thing was posted, then i'd put up a full album post where people could download it as a zip file.

Barry Linck, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoThursday, January 10, 2013 at 3:19pm PST

Cool, thanks! I was at that shop yesterday. I didn't get much of a scene vibe from it, but maybe I just caught 'em at a busy time.

Barry LinckThursday, January 10, 2013 at 2:31pm PST

Pulp Fiction http://www.pulpfictiononline.com/ He said that that's were the comics scene was.

Barry LinckThursday, January 10, 2013 at 2:24pm PST

Riot, my studio mate was the main guy, he now lives out here. He used to hang at I believe "Long Beach Comics"? I'll check. Carly moved to Colorado.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 10, 2013 at 2:17pm PST

Yo!! A few years ago at 24 Hour Comics Day, I remember that we talked with a crew of cartoonists working at a comic shop in Long Beach. Well, I'm in Long Beach now and looking to meet some local comic artists. Do you know anyone here? Thx!

Barry LinckTuesday, October 9, 2012 at 1:25pm PDT

Just got it added! I forgot to do this!

Barry LinckTuesday, October 9, 2012 at 1:22pm PDT

Thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 9, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

Hey, I dunno if you already registered our location as an official Host through the 24-Hour Comics Day website, but since our event isn't listed on the website yet, I figured I'd pass it along to you just in case: http://www.24hourcomicsday.com/content.aspx?page_id=60&club_id=448232 I'm looking forward to the event! :D

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, July 28, 2010 at 6:53am PDT

yeah it's all good.

1032594036@facebook.comTuesday, July 27, 2010 at 11:17pm PDT

Yeah. I forgot...

don't forget you're up next!

Shannon Botts, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 6:07am PST

Doing alright, moving to LA at the end of the year. Where would this podcast be recorded? The basic equipment differs depending on the answer to that question. (Also, if the answer is "recorded at the office" you've got a big problem because there's so much background hiss there!) However, the audio editing and conversion software is free (Audacity for editing and iTunes for converting the files to mp3s). And if I remember correctly, you guys bought ProTools, right? What's that getting used for?? Because that's a great editing program too. When you bought ProTools, did you buy microphones? Because that's the biggest thing I remember us not having at the office.

Shannon BottsMonday, November 5, 2012 at 5:54am PST

Hey! How are you and Justique? Are you still moving to LA? Quick question - Lisa is exploring the idea of doing podcasts. What would you say is the basic equipment we'd need to get going? Thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 7:45pm PDT

Stique is good!! Doing much better. As far as I know, I'll be doing the same stuff in LA that I do here. No big career plans or anything. Hahaha Brenda hates her job. That's awesome. How's your baby? Stuff going well??

Shannon BottsTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 5:30pm PDT

Wow moving to LA, that's cool. That will be a nice change of scenery. Will you be working on your comic book stuff and podcasting? I wasn't allowed to write. I do everything from my phone now. They really monitor us online, our email, probably our phones. There aren't any really funny stories. Hmmm.... apparently Brenda is on anti-anxiety meds cause she hates it so much. The latest hr assistant manager quit because he said the job was impacting his health. Our dept is pretty tame. Lisa has calmed down a little and isn't as nuts as she was a few months ago. Chris is still dealing with side effects from his concussion but other than that seems to be doing well. How is Justique?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 8:09am PDT

same old stuff for the most part, making comics, podcasting, etc. planing to move Los Angeles by the end of the year. any funny work stories for me??? i'm not surprised that they're getting even more strict. i'm surprised you're even allowed to write me back during work hours :D

Shannon BottsTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 6:41am PDT

Hey! Things are good. I'm still here. So is Christine. And she's actually turned out to be pretty cool. ESA is even more ridiculous than before. They're very strict about lunch breaks, time sheets, dress code, etc now. How are things with you?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 5:48am PDT

yo, how's life? still working at ESA? is eats-her-own-dandruff still there too?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 26, 2012 at 11:20am PST

that's cool he's working downtown.. you get to go to work together? also, i'm glad to hear the baby's doing well! i always thought lisa was kinda whiny and rude. at least, she was always rude to me :) but then again, i wasn't easy to deal with so i understand why in my case. me? COMICS COMICS COMICS. and podcasting. actually, i need to focus more. so hard to work effectively when you're your own boss.

Shannon BottsThursday, January 26, 2012 at 10:42am PST

*calm down

Shannon BottsThursday, January 26, 2012 at 10:40am PST

Life is pretty good. Work kind of stinks right now. Lisa is getting really hard to deal with. She's constantly freaked out and complaining about our schedules and has gotten kind of rude, but whatever. We hired a new graphic designer, so hopefully now that someone will be there 5 days a week she'll come down. Other than that, the baby is great and Vern started a new job, so he's working downtown too now which has been nice. What's going on with you?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 23, 2012 at 10:08am PST

hahahahaha OMG CLASSIC!!!! god, i miss her. how's life?

Shannon BottsMonday, January 23, 2012 at 9:59am PST

i hadn't been lately but checked her out today. daryl is still in jail, the new boyfriend just got out of jail. erica and the new boyfired are homeless, he's mad she's bisexual, and she's stopped mentioning her daughter all together. so yes, she's still awesome.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 22, 2012 at 9:28am PST

kosarich! right. you still keeping tabs on her?

Shannon BottsSunday, January 22, 2012 at 9:22am PST

the one and only erica kosarich.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 21, 2012 at 9:04pm PST

hey what was the name of that woman we used to laugh at... the one who was friends with Edgar's facebook account?

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 10:16pm PST

that's kind of a shame about redman. so much comedy potential there. you must miss the laughs.

Shannon BottsSaturday, October 15, 2011 at 7:54am PDT

i'm happy things are still getting better. no, warren is my age. not sure why he's nowhere online. strange. redman has been out of the picture for quite some time thank goodness. i don't think vern's seen him in at least a year.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 9, 2011 at 8:35pm PDT

j's okay. good days, bad days. but it's slowly getting better. i tried to find him on online but he's not there! is he older? how's redman?

Shannon BottsFriday, September 30, 2011 at 1:54pm PDT

i'm happy that things are going well. his name is warren waloweic and he is kind of an ass. lisa called me today and was complaining about him a lot. i think she wants to fire him but feels bad because it would be more about personality than about the quality of his work. em's great. she's a very independent, opinionated little baby. we're going to be in for it when she starts talking. how are things with justique?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 29, 2011 at 4:50pm PDT

hahaha nice he sounds like an ass. what's his name? stuff is going okay for me, a lot slower than i'd like but still very very good. how's your daughter doing?

Shannon BottsThursday, September 29, 2011 at 12:14pm PDT

life's good. ESA kind of blows, but no surprise there. They hired a new guy to replace Drew and he gives me the creeps. Lisa saw him looking at non-work sites and told him that the firm is monitoring that stuff so be careful. He got super defensive and said, "It's not like I was looking at porn." Who says that? How's everything with you?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 29, 2011 at 11:38am PDT

hows life?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 6, 2011 at 5:18am PDT

DAMN! Well I'm glad you and Emerson made it out okay. I love the pics you posted. She makes some hilarious faces.

Shannon BottsTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 11:25pm PDT

I hope that things keep getting better for her - tell her I say hi. She was born two months early. I was in the hospital for about a week while they tried to stop the labor and then she was in the NICU for a month and now we've had her home for a month... quite an adventure. We were in a car accident a few days before my labor started and I think that's what caused it... no way to prove it, but that's my hunch.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 9:04am PDT

we're doing okay. some things are a lot better for her, but it's still tough. thx for asking! so emerson was born kinda early? i know i probably sound like a moron for asking that but i forget when you got pregnant... SORRY! i was gone by the time everything happened, so i don't really know what went down.

Shannon BottsTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 5:21am PDT

hey! things are going well. she's been home for a month so i feel like we've finally gotten used to the whole having a baby thing. my maternity leave is up aug. 12, but lisa said that because of how everything happened, they don't expect me back at a certain date. i'll probably go back sometime in september. how are things with you and justique?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 3:55am PDT

hey, how's everything going? they making you go back to work soon? (i can't remember if it's two months or three months...)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2011 at 5:54am PDT

wow! i knew she was stepping back but i didn't know it was that much!!!

Shannon BottsFriday, April 22, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

well, apparently today is linh's last day. they're dropping like flies!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 19, 2011 at 6:05am PDT

meh. probably fired. seems like the usual "didn't perform" time period. how's that new HR person? btw, you were in my dream last night. we were trying to fix a laptop and it was really difficult, and this combination of lisa/my mom was hollering at us about it, until we both got exhausted and passed out where we were working on the laptop. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN??? hahaha

Shannon BottsTuesday, April 19, 2011 at 5:44am PDT

HR is going through the black guy's stuff... i'm assuming he quit or got fired. shocking.

Shannon BottsWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 8:50am PDT

oh my gosh i know. i would've died if she would've put that in a draft. what a disaster.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:42am PDT

"You may be one of the one in three people" HAHAHA did she do a draft that said "you may be one of the three people in the US" cause that would rule

Shannon BottsWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 5:48am PDT

Just so you can see what I'm talking about, here's the news story she wrote for me: If you have any unexplained discomfort following a hospital stay, you may be one of the one in three people in the United States affected by hospital errors. Even bedsores are classified as medical errors. Some hospital mistakes can be as serious as objects left in the body after surgery or life-threatening staph infections. It is estimated that a staggering 90 percent of these medical errors go undetected. A study by the Denver Health practice of the Milliman Inc consulting firm found that in 2008, as high as $17.1 billion dollars spent on insurance claims were the direct result of hospital errors. (I told her NOT to include the financial info) Four drafts later and we're still working on it...

Shannon BottsWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 4:49am PDT

he is still with her. i'm betting they get engaged in the next year. the intern's photography isn't bad. her writing is THE WORST EVER!!!!!! i said i didn't like her writing after the writing test, but i guess that didn't matter. i've had to edit the same story five times and she never, ever gets it right. i'm going to have to tell lisa that this is a huge waste of my time. and she turns bright red if you give her even the smallest correction. her entire face. and ears.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2011 at 6:26am PDT

Did you see this? http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/1748240/viewall That's her photography portfolio Found her LinkedIn, not that interesting 'cept that she just moved back from San Diego. I saw Chris's stuff about the Marines. Hmmm... yeah. Good for Drew. He'll leave by the fall, I bet. Is he still with the same girlfriend?

Shannon BottsMonday, April 11, 2011 at 5:30am PDT

Her name is Elizabeth Buros. Yeah, everything's exactly the same, maybe even a little worse. Apparently there is now a hard 3% max raise limit. At my review this year, Lisa said that they pushed for me to get more, and Janet would only go up to 3.5%. Which is awesome, considering my workload has at least doubled. Deanna said she's giving them the 411 on how much the pay sucks here during her review. Good luck with that, they don't care. Especially if you're only in the office three days a week. They're not going to want to hear any complaints. A new job... yeah, if it wasn't for the child that's about to make an appearance :) Well, at least you're having fun. We're all having a minimum of success here AND it's no fun. Drew got into CMU's business school, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before he peaces out. Chris is still on the marines thing... he's trying to be gone by the summer. So yeah, it's awesome here.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2011 at 5:16am PDT

what's her name? i wanna look her up!!! training sucks. sorry you got stuck with that. and that goddamn Wii room... i'll tell you what -- the Wii thing was the first thing that really pushed me over the edge there... when Sandy told us all this shit and then ended up making it some big all office thing instead with those remedial rules. oh and a ken noble referral? that can't be good. i mean, actually, that's gotta be terrible. whatever. i love how everything is pretty much exactly the same as it was when i left. sorry, i'm bitter :) YOU SHOULD FIND A NEW JOB! yeah i have a multitude of projects going on with a minimum of success. it's pretty discouraging but it's a lot of fun so i've got that going for me!!!

Shannon BottsMonday, April 11, 2011 at 5:04am PDT

thanks! she's working in the wii room which is now the photo studio. it looks like a dentist's office in there and it sucks. so she was referred to us by ken noble. she graduated from college last spring and hasn't been able to find a job. she went for multi media stuff and video production and originally it seemed like she was going to be here to do video stuff and photos (for team of pros, ads, etc.) then it became, "oh, this is great timing, she can help out with shannon's stuff when she's on maternity leave" to "if things work out, we'll hire you as a full-time employee." so basically she's my replacement if i don't come back. so i get to train her on everything, which is an awesome use of my limited time. i wish lisa was just taking my stuff over which the original plan was. and it's silly because i have no choice but to come back. plus, this girl can't write at all. but whatever, is wasn't my call. anyway, you would've died in her interview. she is the meekest, quietest person in the world. her hands were shaking, she spoke so softly sometimes you couldn't hear her, and she had the limpest handshake ever. plus, she kept telling us that even though she doesn't know how to do certain things, she's a super fast learner and will be able to do it, no problem. drew and i both agreed that that makes us nervous. what's going on with you? seems like you have a lot of projects in the works.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2011 at 4:46am PDT

where is the intern working? in hair picker's office? GROSS! typically the first time login is the first four letters of their last name and the last four digits of their social security #

Shannon BottsMonday, April 11, 2011 at 4:44am PDT

nothing much... heading to atlanta at the end of the month. pretty happy to have some time away. other than that, just working on the house. life is pretty uneventful these days. how about you? oh yeah, what is the first-time user login password? i can never remember. we have an intern starting today. i'll have to give you the scoop on that later today.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 5, 2011 at 12:11pm PDT

hahaha oh well whatever she'll probably get fired sooner or later. s'new with you?

Shannon BottsTuesday, April 5, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

Thanks. I assume she writes stuff, but I'm not sure how much or what exactly the rewrite process is now. We are hiring an intern to take over some of my stuff while I'm on maternity leave, so Christine won't be doing any of that. We're all still a little confused on why exactly she gets paid what she does....

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 30, 2011 at 5:59am PDT

yeah she should be doing them. what does she do anyway? the site looks exactly the same... it could go either way, honestly. when i collected info from Needles, i always grabbed both counties. i think Lisa told me to use the one where they live... but in my opinion, it makes more sense to use the county of accident because you can live in California and hire our firm for a PA car crash. honestly, though, it doesn't really matter. whichever one is easier... OR use whichever one gives you the most variety of county for better SEO.

Shannon BottsWednesday, March 30, 2011 at 5:52am PDT

random work question - for client comments, did you post the county where the accident occurred or the county where the client lives? ps - i hate these client quotes. mt. dew queen needs to be doing them.

Shannon BottsFriday, March 25, 2011 at 11:36am PDT

good, actually. everyone's way nicer to you when you're pregnant. plus you get dibs on food. no, but it's really fine. based on some people's stories i thought it would be miserable, but after the first three months it's been smooth sailing.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2011 at 11:18am PDT

how's your pregnancy?

Shannon BottsFriday, March 25, 2011 at 11:15am PDT

Riiight. That. Well, were you still here when Sandy decided she didn't want the new design that Drew spent a year doing? So we're not onto a hybrid of the old site fused with some new elements (still on WordPress). Still not sure when it's supposed to be launched....

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2011 at 9:51am PDT

BTW, how's the new website coming along??? (Did I call that or what?)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 22, 2011 at 6:54pm PDT

i'm speechless

Shannon BottsTuesday, March 22, 2011 at 3:05pm PDT

according to deanna she's an older woman, like 36. and has two kids. they met on st. patty's day.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 22, 2011 at 2:15pm PDT

now that you told me, YES!

Shannon BottsTuesday, March 22, 2011 at 9:21am PDT

did you see chris b.'s new boo?

Shannon BottsTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:35am PDT

Yep. And still chugging that Mt. Dew.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:28am PDT

is hair picker still there?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:28am PDT

i give him two weeks

Shannon BottsTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:22am PDT

He's a PI legal assistant. I haven't met him yet, just saw him sitting in his cube. I hope he doesn't get fired.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:13am PDT

wow. what's he like? what dept?

Shannon BottsTuesday, March 15, 2011 at 5:28am PDT

Stop the presses.... we have our first African-American, male hire. Whoa.

Shannon BottsWednesday, March 9, 2011 at 8:23am PST

i really like it this year. well, actually, i like jacob lusk and casey abrams (the black gospel-y singer and the guy who plays the bass). the girls are pretty boring, even though some of them can sing. i did tell them and it went better than i thought and i think i'll have the option to do the flexible schedule. anything new with you? how's freelancing?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 9, 2011 at 7:50am PST

nah, i tried one episode like last week i think for a few mins and it was sooooo BAD! maybe in a month or so i'll try it again. how do you like it so far? hey did you tell them about the baby yet?

Shannon BottsWednesday, March 9, 2011 at 7:43am PST

not too much. work is kind of a beast right now, really busy. but nothing interesting going on. ben eberly is leaving, which is obviously very sad. what's up with you? watching american idol yet?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 9, 2011 at 4:32am PST

waz new?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 9, 2011 at 9:17am PST

hahah she's so clever

Shannon BottsWednesday, February 9, 2011 at 9:12am PST

did you ever notice that brandi engle is friends with cw brandi on facebook? i just discovered this the other day... she keeps finding new ways to blow my mind!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 5, 2011 at 12:01pm PST

whoa sarah and jamiee! wild. exodus. me? working on some marketing freelance stuff and working on creative stuff but not making money at it yet. you?

1093744931@facebook.comTuesday, December 7, 2010 at 5:27am PST

yoooo not much. same old, same old here. nobody's really gotten to know the new girl i don't think. sarah ryan left, which is a bummer (as did jaimee frohlich and renee reiland). what's going on with you?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, December 7, 2010 at 5:25am PST

yoooo waz new

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 7:33am PST

i'm sorry. i wish i was part of the hiring process

1093744931@facebook.comTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 6:19am PST

she doesn't really come out of her office so i haven't seen any picking, but i'm sure it's happening. i think her hair is washed, but again, she goes into the office and doesn't come out unless it's to talk to lisa.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 6:16am PST

DULY NOTED. thx for the update! that's wacky about Altoona. is Line still picking away? i wonder how long it's gonna take Lisa to notice. i also wonder how gross her office is gonna get. did she wash her hair yet??

1093744931@facebook.comTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 6:02am PST

Have to keep you updated... Altoona hired what appears to be a bi-racial woman! WHAT?? And new girl said "duly noted" twice yesterday in a meeting with Lisa. Who actually says that in real life?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 1, 2010 at 6:46am PDT

is so much weirder and sorta of worse than i even expected.

Hey Tony - While it's on my mind, I thought I'd send you the link to the site for that show Wayne was talking about: http://www.pixcomics.com/ Also, I'm helping to organize a show in Sept (not just comics, but also zines and small press lit... but definitely with a solid comics presence) called Pittsburgh's Small Press Festival: http://www.spfpittsburgh.com/ Dunno if anyone at the PG would be interested in doing something about the Small Press show, but I'm always willing to talk it up! Anyway, catch you next week. Nick

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 23, 2010 at 7:47am PDT

hey tony - this is nick, the guy from phantom that gave you the self-published comic this past wednesday. i dunno if you've had a chance to crack open the book yet, but the premise is based around oakland's ludicrously racist and offensive the stephen foster statue... which you just wrote about the day before i gave you the book! i had no idea about your editorial until today when my friend mentioned it to me!!! so if you thought i gave you the comic because of your tuesday column, the answer is no -- the timing is just a fluke. hope you enjoy the book! nick

Hey Justique, Thanks for your call this morning. Lisa actually called me herself quite shortly after I called you and told me the whole story. Scary, scary stuff. Seriously, I told her: People die like that. I really hope that she means what she says and that this will be a wake up call. She had MY chest tight and heart pounding! My recommendation would be not even to buy stuff from Jon--if possible, try to minimize even the potential of a need to have contact with him. Plan some fun non-crazy-party related activities for the weekends, when the likelihood of getting into messed-up situations seems greater, if you can. Oh, and if you need to wait a bit before accepting my friend request to minimize suspicion that we spoke, that's cool. She has no idea right now that we talked. Have a good Sunday and take it easy. Feel free to give me a ring anytime: My home number is 646.485.5126 and cell is 607.280.6855. Cheers and all the best, Celeste

4801997@facebook.comSunday, July 13, 2008 at 6:09am PDT

I really need to talk to you. Please please call me at 210 204 4817. If we could keep this between us, at least until i hear from you, i'd be very much obliged. I don't want to upset lisa anymore than she should be...but i think, after i talk to you...you can help her more than i can. Maybe she'll listen to you. Justique

Nick MarinoFriday, February 27, 2015 at 9:52am PST

hahahaha

Kenny RiotFriday, February 27, 2015 at 9:23am PST

also, 4 is the last good one in the series...quality dropped like a bad joke at a family reunion after that.

Kenny RiotFriday, February 27, 2015 at 9:22am PST

Shodown 3 is alright, 4 is a more refined version of that

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:59pm PST

wait... shodown. my bad. haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:58pm PST

as for the Neo-Geo cabinet, the only fighting game was Samurai Showdown III. good stuff. my first time playing it.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:57pm PST

busted as in only the left side of the joystick works! haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:56pm PST

anyway, one cabinet is a busted multi-game old school thing with like 60 80s games on it. arkanoid, galaga, 1941, all that stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

that's their claim to fame.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:55pm PST

they have two cabinets stashed in the back of this joint, which is already odd to begin with begin they make curry pizza. seriously.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 11:01am PST

good luck finding Jet

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 11:01am PST

It'll probably be 1, 2, or Perfect

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 11:01am PST

i dunno when i'll go... but i'll let you know what happens! fingers crossed for world heroes.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 11:00am PST

that's true.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 10:59am PST

What've you got to lose, though?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 10:58am PST

for real... that's my biggest fear is that i'll get my hopes up and the games will be awful

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 10:57am PST

Depends on what games they had on it

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 5:38pm PST

i was in a thai restaurant down the street from me earlier today and i saw a Neo-Geo cabinet in a little secluded section the back! i'm one part excited and one part afraid to even play it! i'm just like... how long has this machine been sitting back there unplayed?

Kenny RiotFriday, September 5, 2014 at 10:09am PDT

One of my homegirls SWEARS the first one is good, but I just do not believe her.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 5, 2014 at 9:00am PDT

i tried to watch that first one a bunch of times but it was so fake-Matrix-y and boring! part of me wants to try watching the sequel to see if it's so bad it's good.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 5, 2014 at 8:02am PDT

Yeah, I saw the cover and lost my god damn mind. I still haven't seen the first Live Action one, either...

Nick MarinoFriday, September 5, 2014 at 7:55am PDT

hahaha OMG... they made a sequel to the Tekken movie?!?!? WHYYYY?!?!?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 14, 2014 at 1:59am PDT

I'm about to go to work right now!

Kenny RiotFriday, March 14, 2014 at 1:59am PDT

crap...I said the wrong date..confused it with something else...

Kenny RiotFriday, March 14, 2014 at 1:50am PDT

March 20th was the end?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 14, 2014 at 1:50am PDT

isn't that what you said?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 13, 2014 at 11:13pm PDT

ceasing activity on the 20th?

Kenny RiotThursday, March 13, 2014 at 10:25pm PDT

The track used in this episode is the Logistics remix of Taku Inoue's "Night Falls", the ending credits theme of "Tekken Tag Tournament 2"

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 11, 2014 at 6:56pm PDT

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 11, 2014 at 4:41pm PDT

don't even worry.

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 11, 2014 at 4:41pm PDT

It's droppin' this week

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 11, 2014 at 12:36pm PDT

YO! i'm just checking in and seeing your plan for your final episode(s) of HCC on the AudioShocker. I'm going to be out of town the first week of April and it'll be really difficult for me to post episodes from the 3rd-8th (with the 4th being the Friday out of that bunch). So it would be awesome if you could plan to release your stuff on either March 14, 21, or 28.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:55pm PST

It's no problem

Nick MarinoSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:54pm PST

thx for understanding

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:32pm PST

makes sense you'd want to focus on some other shit now.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:31pm PST

and you've recorded so much

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:31pm PST

But it's cool, man...6 years and some change is a long time to be doin' this shit

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:30pm PST

Nah, it'd be mad disrespectful to not do a farewell episode

Nick MarinoSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:28pm PST

you're the first person i'm writing to about this, so i may have forgotten to discuss some other stuff. feel free to ask me about anything i missed!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:27pm PST

s'cool. whatever works best for you. if you change your mind and decide you want to spin the show off onto its own site tomorrow without doing a farewell AudioShocker episode, that's fine too!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:27pm PST

oh, i forgot to mention! i'm gonna make an official announcement about the "retirement" this wednesday on the blog.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:26pm PST

I'll get one last AS-era HyperComboCast out for ya

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:26pm PST

Well, thanks for havin' me on AudioShocker

Kenny RiotSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:25pm PST

I see...

Nick MarinoSunday, February 23, 2014 at 2:25pm PST

So Neal and I came to a decision. We're going to officially "retire" the AudioShocker on Wednesday, April 9th with a final episode of Podcast Verite. I'm considering the next month and a half a "wind down" period. If you want to record one final episode, that's cool. If you want to record four more episodes, that's cool too. You have my blessing to continue HyperComboCast in any way you see fit on any site that you want. You're also welcome to keep using the opening theme if you want, though I bet you probably got a few jams that you'd love to try out instead! Thanks for podcasting with me for all these years! It's been awesome :D

Nick MarinoThursday, February 20, 2014 at 4:30pm PST

ohhhhhh

Kenny RiotThursday, February 20, 2014 at 4:19pm PST

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 19, 2014 at 6:51pm PST

asking right now would be like saying "tl;dr"

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 19, 2014 at 6:51pm PST

Yeah, but I still wanna listen to the episode before I ask anything, because you might already answer it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 19, 2014 at 6:46pm PST

thanks! no worries about the new episode. as for questions, i totally understand why you would have 'em. and just so you know, you're welcome to ask me anything! i'm sure seeing me say "i might be done with podcasting" is a pretty jarring and confusing.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 19, 2014 at 6:35pm PST

gotta check out the latest Everything blows so questions will be destroyed by answers

cool approach

Nick MarinoThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:14am PST

OH i get it hahaha

yeah

Nick MarinoThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:13am PST

so i'm fine skipping this friday! hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:12am PST

i'd say go for it for next week but i'm trimming down my time spent posting on the audioshocker this year so i can get some other stuff done!! each post takes me like 3-4 hours or so to put together and promote, and then it's kinda draining too so yeah, thinning out the schedule a little.

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:12am PST

ORIGINALLY, I was going to do 2013, but it would've been an obvious rushjob, and I was not about to go there

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:11am PST

I was trying to figure out proper categories to follow throughout the year

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:11am PST

It's gonna be about a 2014 "You Don't Suck" awards for fighting game shit

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:11am PST

oh, word? a'ight then

Nick MarinoThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

gonna have to shift it two weeks cause we've got animatic attack lined up for next week

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

but now I know EXACTLY what to do

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

I can have it recorded by the end of the week

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

needed some extra brainstorming

Kenny RiotThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

shiftin' it to next week

Nick MarinoThursday, January 9, 2014 at 11:10am PST

podcast reminder!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 6, 2014 at 8:29am PST

okay cool!

Kenny RiotMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:51am PST

you actually gave me an idea

Kenny RiotMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:50am PST

I'm gonna do one this week

Nick MarinoMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:50am PST

hey i'm checking in to see if you decided to do a HyperComboCast for this week or wait until next week! THX :D

Kenny RiotThursday, January 2, 2014 at 2:41pm PST

Ah, alright then

Nick MarinoThursday, January 2, 2014 at 2:41pm PST

It's no rush or anything. I was asking because we decided to push back the recording of this week's Animatic Attack, so if you want to wait an extra week to record another HyperComboCast, you can. Just lemme know what you want to do!

Kenny RiotThursday, January 2, 2014 at 1:32pm PST

I have a couple ideas for next week. I'll have time this weekend to record SOMETHING for you

Nick MarinoThursday, January 2, 2014 at 10:06am PST

Do you have an episode planned for next week?

Kenny RiotMonday, December 23, 2013 at 2:10pm PST

hell, even the HCC's you ended up doing without me

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 2:09pm PST

haha i hear you! i have that with pretty much every podcast i've ever listened to.

Kenny RiotMonday, December 23, 2013 at 2:03pm PST

but to explain the whole "a podcast with Kenny & Nick" joke...there'd be so many times I'd listen to one of the other podcasts and just think "man, I wish I was on this one so I could weigh in on this shit"

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 2:01pm PST

exactly.

cool! are you gettin a little burned out on hypercombocasting or lookin to add another podcast to your schedule?

Kenny RiotThursday, December 19, 2013 at 7:32pm PST

then we'll figure somethin' out later

Nick MarinoThursday, December 19, 2013 at 7:32pm PST

hahaha i dig the idea but i wouldn't have the time to start up something like this until the New Year!! i didn't realize Iron Man 3 took place during Christmas. Ross and I are planning to talk about it in 3 weeks, but if I'd known it was an xmas movie then i woulda had us review next week!!!

Kenny RiotThursday, December 19, 2013 at 3:59pm PST

like "Scrooged" and "Christmas Vacation" or even shit that just happened to take place during Christmas, like "Lethal Weapon" or "Die Hard", or even fucking "Iron Man 3"

Kenny RiotThursday, December 19, 2013 at 3:52pm PST

I have no idea, that was kind of a joke...but hey, it's almost Christmas...so, um, unconventional Christmas movies?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 19, 2013 at 3:49pm PST

poooooooooooooooooooodcast idea... so tell me more, whatchu thinkin? what type of stuff you wanna talk about?

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 12:00pm PST

Throw this in the show notes, too.

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:58am PST

(That noise you hear at some points in the recording is actually a transitional sound effect from "Capcom vs. SNK 2: Millionaire Fighting 2001". I just didn't want the disconnect/reconnect to be abrupt, so that's why it's there.)

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:56am PST

Guest Host - Chris "ShinSyn" Johnson

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:56am PST

"Episode 80: Don't Call It Japanamation, Mom Today, on HyperComboCast, there's discussion with a new guest on the seeming rise of what could be called the 'Anime' Fighting Game sub-genre. Slight technical issues aside, there's talk of where it seemingly started, where it's at now, and where it very well could be."

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:53am PST

(christ, that took longer than it should've...)

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 10:43am PST

I'll get 'em to you in a few...

Kenny RiotThursday, November 28, 2013 at 10:43am PST

yeah, I know I gotta write the notes...I got mad tired and went to bed

Nick MarinoThursday, November 28, 2013 at 8:11am PST

got the audio file. thx!!! show notes and images plleeeaaasee!!!!! i dunno if you've noticed yet but i've switched up the show notes style a bit. here's a good example of it: http://www.audioshocker.com/2013/11/14/allegheny-teen-center-reading-program-16-all-new-soulfire-1 basically, you don't have to write in the full host and guest names into the description anymore because i'll do that in the new "Hosts: " section above the show notes.

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 4:13pm PST

friend I was recording with recommended it to me

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 4:13pm PST

I haven't tried it...hell, never heard of it until today

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 4:12pm PST

When I was searching for Skype replacements, I came across it. Have you tried it? BTW our Skype recorder should continue to work just fine. Microsoft changed their stance and decided to continue support for the desktop API that CallGraph uses until they come up with an alternative solution. That doesn't give us much safety, but it should at least be fine for a few more months.

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 3:59pm PST

Also, ever heard of "Mumble"?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 3:59pm PST

k cool

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 3:58pm PST

Recording is done

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 2:46pm PST

I'll send it out when it's done

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 2:46pm PST

...recording!

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 27, 2013 at 2:39pm PST

HAd to reschedule for today...about to record now

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 5:06pm PST

not that such things matter anymore

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 5:06pm PST

I can tell you right now, he's better at short stories, than one long one.

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 5:05pm PST

funny thing is, a lot of the stuff he's done, I bought because of the artists he's worked with, rather than his writing

Nick MarinoFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:52pm PST

yeah it sucks. a lot. i'm not well read on his work... only a few issueshere and there. so in that regard, i have no opinion. mostly i'm irritated that he used "feminist" as his public image when he's obviously sexist.

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:42pm PST

I actually own a lot of his stuff...

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:42pm PST

in other news, that Brian Wood shit bums me out

Nick MarinoFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:38pm PST

great!!! thx ;)

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:24pm PST

gonna be recording an episode on Sunday

Kenny RiotFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:24pm PST

I am

Nick MarinoFriday, November 22, 2013 at 4:23pm PST

Hi :D I'm checking in to see if you're planning an episode for next Friday. If you're not, I have something I can run that day. But if you are, I'll find a different day for it.

Kenny RiotThursday, October 31, 2013 at 5:42pm PDT

needed to get to bed

Kenny RiotThursday, October 31, 2013 at 5:42pm PDT

it was just big and I didn't have time

Kenny RiotThursday, October 31, 2013 at 5:42pm PDT

I already have the WAV file

Nick MarinoThursday, October 31, 2013 at 7:29am PDT

Next time, it would be awesome if you could export the audio as a .wav file and then send that to me instead of the .aup and the folders. Also, I recommend lowering your mic levels in Audacity. It's too high right now and you're getting a ton of clipping. And that mic jiggling sound or whatever that is. It's under your voice the entire time. Ahhrhrhrhgh!!!

"Episode 79 - The Black Heart Kenny Riot goes solo while all kinds of tired from his new job to first give proper victory shout outs to Fawn and Oasis789 for winning the Divekick Verite contest, as well as props to Keits for allowing Audioshocker.com the opportunity to have the giveaway at all. After some talk about Xuan Dou Xhi Wang (King of Combat), the Ultra Street Fighter IV system changes, and the announcement of Frosty Faustings VI Pre-registration, it's time to get into the meat of the episode. Since Halloween was this week, Kenny decided to talk about an indie game he found called "The Black Heart", which is a very horror inspired fighting game made using M.U.G.E.N."

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 30, 2013 at 9:45pm PDT

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 30, 2013 at 8:20pm PDT

wait, nevermind, I can look that up

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 30, 2013 at 7:58pm PDT

since you're here, who was the other dude that won the Steam Divekick?

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 30, 2013 at 7:57pm PDT

yes

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 30, 2013 at 7:57pm PDT

checking in! gonna be sending me an audio file tonight?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:30pm PDT

hahahahaha

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:28pm PDT

in other news...DAT CYBER ALF, right?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:27pm PDT

well im pumped to learn more about it.

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:25pm PDT

yeah, but it plays alright

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:25pm PDT

cool! i saw that trailer a year or two ago and was really curious about the game. looks kinda lofi in an MS paint kinda way.

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

(Halloween special, though when it airs, it's the day after...OH WELL!)

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

it's about a game called "The Black Heart"

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

gonna record it tomorrow

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 29, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

do you have an episode planned for this week?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 11:10pm PDT

cool! thx :D

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 6:53pm PDT

Steam Key 84G34-NRWBW-RZR3K

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 6:50pm PDT

okay, shoot the code on over!!! the guy got back to me and he's ready to get his Divekick on! haha

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 6:03pm PDT

let's do it like that

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 6:03pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 23, 2013 at 9:53am PDT

hey we've got our second Divekick winner but it's not someone I know personally so i emailed them at the addressed they used when they left the comment. how do you wanna work out this one? would it be easier if you just gave me the code?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:28pm PDT

yeaaaaah i thought it sounded familiar

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:26pm PDT

that "here comes a new challenger" thing came from Third Strike

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:26pm PDT

I nailed it

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:26pm PDT

the live oak thing came out real hot with the rival/record scratch

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:21pm PDT

I had to manually add a fadeout to "Live Oak" as it is, so it's not like I don't know how to use the effects already

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:20pm PDT

nah, I did exactly what you said and highlighted the vocal audio before using it.

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:19pm PDT

Ah

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:19pm PDT

hahahaha cool. sounds like maybe the end theme also got the equalizer? i can't tell for sure but really i have zero complaints. all around solid sound to me. i generally assumed you didn't use the equalizer but some episodes i genuinely couldn't tell! i think your mic is good about not catching too many low noises plus you normally have zero hiss / background noise on your end. i ran it on a few of the episodes you sent me when they sounded too bassy / fuzzy on the low end, but not many of them.

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:16pm PDT

so I guess everything else you heard that sounded great was luck of the draw or something

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:15pm PDT

but this is the first time I used your equalizer setting EVER

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:13pm PDT

slightly more muffled

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:13pm PDT

honestly, at this point i don't remember the sound of the original that well hahahaha! but what i'm hearing now sounds good to me :D thx!!!!

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:11pm PDT

way better?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 12:11pm PDT

thumbs up!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 16, 2013 at 9:07am PDT

cool, i'll be downloading the episode soon!

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 15, 2013 at 7:15pm PDT

somethin' like..."This episodes special theme includes 'Live Oak' from the band 'A Giraffe', which is also the Alcohollywood Podcast theme"

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 15, 2013 at 7:14pm PDT

add that to the Episode 78 show notes

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 15, 2013 at 7:14pm PDT

http://agiraffe.bandcamp.com/track/live-oak

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 15, 2013 at 7:13pm PDT

Sent the updated version of episode 78 to ya

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:39pm PDT

i know you don't check the Riot Jr. account all of the time, so just in case you weren't gonna check it again tonight, i sent you a message about #77 and #78 that need you to get back at me about! thx.

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 1:35pm PDT

Dope shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 1:35pm PDT

yeah, sounds cool!!!! awesome idea. let's do it.

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 12:05pm PDT

one of the codes is for PS3 / Vita, and the other one is Steam

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 12:05pm PDT

like, I'll announce the rules on this weeks HCC, but what I want to do is like, the next two episodes of Podcast Verite, whoever offers up a question for the show that you like, wins a code

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 12:04pm PDT

he just dropped the codes on me, so...I'm thinking we do a big of a crossover thing

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 12:04pm PDT

This party I was at on Saturday...Keits was there, and he offered us a couple Divekick activation codes to use on the podcasts

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 12:03pm PDT

Yo, I got an idea for a giveaway contest

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 4:20pm PDT

thx

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 4:20pm PDT

Kenny RiotSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 11:42am PDT

No prob

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 11:23am PDT

okay, cool. could you have the episode and show notes to me by the end of wedsnesday? that would help me a tooooon!

Kenny RiotSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 10:24am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 28, 2013 at 9:11am PDT

hey im just planning out what ive got going on next week... are you gonna be doing a podcast for sure?

Kenny RiotWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 12:31pm PDT

that agency doesn't fuck around, plus my agent knows that it was some bullshit

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 12:24pm PDT

WHOA! Congrats. That was crazy fast.

Kenny RiotWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 12:06pm PDT

I did find a new job already, and may potentially have two

Kenny RiotWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 12:06pm PDT

That works out well, actually

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 10:27am PDT

hey, i'm gonna be introducing a new animation podcast next week. i'm planing to air it every other friday for now. the first episode will be on friday, sept 27. i prefer not to post two podcasts on the same day so if you were thinking about running a hypercombocast that day i'd super appreciate it if we could hold it until the next friday, oct 4! thhxxxxx :D also, bummer about your temp job. i hope you find something else really soon!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 9, 2013 at 8:28pm PDT

Okay, cool. I'm glad to edit it if that helps.

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:18pm PDT

and then I can get it to you right after

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:18pm PDT

as for the Divekick episode, we're gonna try to record that on Thursday

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:12pm PDT

HyperComboCast X Alcohollywood: The Legend of Chun-Li

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:12pm PDT

there's a podcast crossover in the works

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:12pm PDT

Alex and I plan to do a Divekick episode

Kenny RiotMonday, September 9, 2013 at 4:12pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, September 9, 2013 at 10:06am PDT

Hey! Podcasts return this week. Planning on recording a HyperComboCast?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:03pm PST

no prob, man. take your time.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:02pm PST

sorry for the lack of content. There ARE episodes and guests in the pipeline, it's just a matter of finding the time to record

Nick MarinoFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:02pm PST

okay, understood. well stay in touch as you're working through things!! and GET BETTER SOON :D

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:02pm PST

*try to

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:02pm PST

gonna tryto rest

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:01pm PST

just came home from the second (now only) job

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:01pm PST

also, I'm down for the count thanks to the flu

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:01pm PST

things are not good right now, and I need to bust my ass to fix it as quickly as possible

Kenny RiotFriday, January 25, 2013 at 12:01pm PST

yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, January 25, 2013 at 11:54am PST

yo, just saying hi. are you officially on podcast hiatus?

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 12:45pm PST

never knew the comic

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 12:45pm PST

I rememeber the cartoon

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 12:45pm PST

Bucky O'Hare was a dope game

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 12:27pm PST

Australian!!! Yeah, those are all good ones that you named. The Avengers beat em up, that's a favorite of mine. The Aquaman game! I've never played it, but I wanna. Iron Man / X-O Manowar, awful cross-company beat em up for the PS. Bucky O'Hare is a comic book adaptation that most peeps didn't even know was a comic. I could talk about that game FOREVER!!!! I'd also be down for an episode about the Street Fighter comics from UDON, a Pixels to Panels reverse-concept type of thing. Those comics kick ass!!

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:50am PST

The 6 player Arcade game based on that ONE EPISODE of the really old X-Men cartoon where Wolverine sounds Scottish for no damn reason

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:49am PST

X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:49am PST

Spider-Man and the X-Men in Arcades Revenge (yes, that's the whole title)

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:49am PST

like the genesis ones

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:49am PST

A lot of X-Men shit came to mind, honestly

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:47am PST

yeah, i'm down. IMO, i think it would be cool to just make it part of the hypercombocast... it wouldn't be fighting games all of the time, obviously, but it's still video games!! i feel like people prefer stuff that's part of the ongoing numbering as opposed to stuff that starts fresh with a #1. but then again i don't care THAT much whether it's part of the numbering or not. just thought i'd toss that idea out there as a discussion point. and if we did go with that, we could label the episodes as part of the "From Panels to Pixels" series, so the cool branding would still be there. anyway, what games did you have in mind? (i did a quick search on the From Panels to Pixels name and it looks like it hasn't been used much... only notable use is from an iFanboy article: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22from+panels+to+pixels%22 )

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:15am PST

like...Monthly

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:15am PST

but not nearly as often

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 11:14am PST

Whole other series

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 9:51am PST

Or do you mean as a whole other series??

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 9:51am PST

Sounds great. Which games and when?

Kenny RiotFriday, November 9, 2012 at 6:36am PST

"From Panels to Pixels" - A podcast about video game adaptations of comics.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:16pm PST

haha thx

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:08pm PST

good choice!

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:08pm PST

and that Shaq Kick is a dope shot

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:08pm PST

cool, thx. i just forgot to add 60 last week and haven't had the chance to update it yet today!

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:05pm PST

it only goes up to episode 59, but the link for 59 actually goes to 58

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:05pm PST

been meaning to tell you

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 1:05pm PST

Oh yeah, the main HyperComboCast page still needs fixing

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:56pm PST

no worries

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:56pm PST

sorry I didn't see that message until later, though

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:56pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:55pm PST

yeah, i have no idea what it could be. but it worked out in the end. podcast is posted.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:55pm PST

probably

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:55pm PST

it's not just you

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:55pm PST

maybe because the riot jr. account is so new??

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:55pm PST

I just woke up a few minutes ago. Facebook has been acting weird with links

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

dunno why it didn't show up at first, though.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

oh, cool

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

s'all good. the link ended up displaying later today.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

depends on how much fighting game related shit I'm doing at the moment

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

I only check it about once or twice a day

Kenny RiotMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:54pm PST

weird, alright then

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 6:08am PST

yo i dunno how often you're checking the Jr. account, but i need you to resend the image you want to use for today's episode because it didn't send the first time.

Kenny RiotMonday, October 29, 2012 at 8:01pm PDT

I'll send it the old way when I get home from work tomorrow morning. fuck.

Kenny RiotMonday, October 29, 2012 at 8:01pm PDT

I sent you the show notes and the MP3 here, and now it's not here at all!

Kenny RiotMonday, October 29, 2012 at 8:00pm PDT

Son of a fucking bitch, Facebook dicked me over!

Nick MarinoSunday, October 28, 2012 at 5:01pm PDT

coooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:57pm PDT

so basically, Chrome is where I do my HCC work now

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:57pm PDT

I downloaded Google Chrome and just linked the HCC eMail to that

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:57pm PDT

and that's also why I made the second facebook profile

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:56pm PDT

I want to do MORE with HyperComboCast

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:56pm PDT

not something like, "the podcast is ending soon"

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:56pm PDT

Oh, I just mean having the Youtube channel and wanting to record gameplay stuff down the line

Nick MarinoSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:55pm PDT

k, gotcha. wanna spill the beans on the future of the show? i'd love to hear it from you instead of learning it first from the recording!

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:51pm PDT

plus, there's feedback to respond to, and I finally got to play Dead or Alive 5, so I can say a little bit about that

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:50pm PDT

it's just I originally wanted to record a video, but because of how yesterday played out, I couldn't do it the way I originally wanted to.

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:50pm PDT

Nah, I actually have a good amount to say, because it's about the future of the podcast

Nick MarinoSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:49pm PDT

FYI, as far as I'm concerned, you don't have to record just to put out a new show. I just want you to know that!! I think it's only worth doing it if you have something to really dig into. Like, don't feel obligated to record a five minute podcast just to put something out there. It's no big deal if you miss this week.

Kenny RiotSunday, October 28, 2012 at 4:39pm PDT

Yes. Apparently I was exhausted from yesterday because I just woke up (meaning I slept for about 12 fucking hours...damn), but I'm gonna be recording something tonight. Won't be a video like I originally planned, though.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 28, 2012 at 7:54am PDT

Gotcha. So should I expect to be posting some content tomorrow?

Kenny RiotSaturday, October 27, 2012 at 6:27am PDT

http://www.youtube.com/HyperComboVision

Kenny RiotSaturday, October 27, 2012 at 6:27am PDT

Update...HyperComboCast now has a Youtube channel

Nick MarinoMonday, October 22, 2012 at 7:41am PDT

that's fine. we can just run it next Monday, if that's cool with you. so take your time.

Kenny RiotSunday, October 21, 2012 at 6:32pm PDT

(and a youtube channel)

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:53am PDT

truth is more boring than fiction.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

that does sound like something i'd do. alas, i just fucked up that time.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

like the Ross Campbell "YESH" all over episode 8

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

I thought you did it as a joke

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

hahahaha whoops! you shoulda said something. TOO LATE NOW! haha

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:49am PDT

(though, you put the sequential underground theme on episode 3...I never bothered to ask why)

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:49am PDT

There's nothin' wrong with Invisible...it's just strange that the podcast with the most frantic and kinetic topic has the calmest theme.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:47am PDT

i'm not a huge fan of using licensed music on the show, but i don't mind when it's a one and done type of thing or used for reference / review purposes related to a specific game we're discussing as opposed to "branding" our show with it. this sample is from a Ventures song, which is totally unrelated and leaves us open to copyright charges. since i don't save the original recordings of the show, we'd be screwed if we ever got a take down notice! so glad you're feeling it, though :D :D and if you're interested in switching up the theme, i can send you some mp3s of other stuff.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:27am PDT

it's up there with Silver Centurion

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:27am PDT

Other friends are really feelin' "The Wrecker" though

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:23am PDT

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:23am PDT

regardless, your call, we gotta follow it

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:22am PDT

But HCC uses licensed music all the time!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:22am PDT

that would be tight. it uses a sample though, so i'm not comfortable using it as the theme. hope you understand!

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 9:34am PDT

it's more hype

Kenny RiotFriday, October 19, 2012 at 9:34am PDT

That shit should be the new HyperComboCast theme

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 9:33am PDT

THX!!!! So glad you dig it :D

"HyperComboCast 59: Punch Your Way Onto the Podcast Kenny Riot teams up with SNKZato1 so he can share the rest of his thoughts on 'Street Fighter Alpha: The Animation', since he had to cut out early in the previous episode, as well as propose a theory as to why Street Fighter as a franchise is difficult to translate into a feature film format. Prepare for ridiculous jokes, shameless plugs, musical interludes, and some interesting points about fighting game plots in general. After the outro, they toss around an idea for a HyperComboCast fighting game! WHOA!"

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:24pm PDT

and then you told me somethin' was odd about the recording AFTER I had converted it, or some weird shit

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:18pm PDT

I remember something similar happening with one of our KoF episodes, when he kept getting power outages during recording or something

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:17pm PDT

'cause the episode we did before that was the Tekken movie

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:17pm PDT

unless Alex leaving had something to do with the recording

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:08pm PDT

I didn't change any settings

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:08pm PDT

I don't know...I don't know why it would've been any different since the last episode was completely fine

Nick MarinoMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:07pm PDT

did you forget to split to mono? or did you split, but forget to make make it the mono split?? luckily, the themes didn't overlap any necessary speaking, so we were all good.

Kenny RiotMonday, October 8, 2012 at 5:04pm PDT

weird...

Nick MarinoMonday, October 8, 2012 at 6:46am PDT

Kenny RiotSunday, September 30, 2012 at 8:12am PDT

Well, we already talked about both of those games on our Marvel episode ANYWAYS

Nick MarinoSunday, September 30, 2012 at 8:11am PDT

don't worry about!!! we have plenty of stuff planned for this week. we can just skip it. instead, if you want, i can just do a "do your homework" blog post and link to the SF alpha video. i kinda wanna do a Marvel Capcom Origins episode, but i don't have much to say about it. i mean, the games are, for the most part, just ports of the arcade versions. unless you think people would enjoy a general discussion. also, my cousin wants to join in on a DOA 5 episode, whenever that happens.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 30, 2012 at 8:01am PDT

this weeks episode would be another "Do your Homework", but I don't really want to do unusually short episodes like that anymore.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 30, 2012 at 8:00am PDT

Alex might be joining us for it

alright

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:32pm PDT

yeah, that would work well for me. i'm waiting to hear back from a friend about meeting up and working on comics (it would be one of those days), so lemme message them again and get back to you ASAP.

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:25pm PDT

as for recording dates, I wanna go for Thursday or Friday

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:24pm PDT

'sides, we haven't done an episode in quite some time!

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:24pm PDT

just go off the merits of the movie

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:24pm PDT

no need to compare, I can do that

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:22pm PDT

depends on when you were interested in recording. that and my tekken knowledge is ridiculously thin so i wouldn't have much to offer in the way of comparison between the movie and game!!

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:13pm PDT

yeah, even more so if you wanna jump in on the tekken anime episode

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:10pm PDT

Yeah, that's what I figured. And it was mad considerate of you. Thx! But it also got me to thinking... if the editing is something that you're getting more and more comfortable with, I think it's definitely something worth discussing. Actually, I have a couple of ideas I wanna run by you but I think it would be better to chat on Skype rather than type it out. Would you be down for a quick Skype talk sometime this week?

Kenny RiotMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:51pm PDT

I just did it myself because 1 - the episode was so short, and 2, you were busy with SPX, so making your life easy was my main concern.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 7:35am PDT

YOOO! Sorry I'm getting back to you kinda late on this. I just got home from DC at midnight, so I'm a little behind on stuff :D I listened to the episode you sent over and I think it's cool that you're editing in the themes now. But if that's something you wanna keep doing every week, I think we should shoot the shit about it a little bit so I can familiarize you with the AudioShocker house style when it comes to editing. Is that something you wanna keep doing or did you just toss the themes in for this week?

Finished episode 56, but Google Documents won't let me share with you right now...ugh.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:55pm PDT

'cause I still kept all the old files and shit, so doing another conversion wouldn't be a problem at all

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:51pm PDT

want me to send you a 44.1?

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:51pm PDT

but when it converted, it went to 48.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:51pm PDT

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:51pm PDT

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:49pm PDT

'cause I KNOW it was at that in audacity

Kenny RiotSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:49pm PDT

It should've been at 44.1, though...lemme go check iTunes

Nick MarinoSunday, September 9, 2012 at 3:04pm PDT

S'cool you got the iTunes going again! I'm about to upload it now. For the future, your kHz should be 44.100 instead of 48. 48 is used for video while 44.100 is the standard for music, podcasts, etc. Listening-wise there's really no difference between the two except that 44.100 is a slightly smaller file size and it's what people are used to when it comes to mp3 audio.

i wish i could make sweet mixes!!! i've tried it a couple of times with my own music (BPMs all over the place, too). they're just meh. anyway, good luck with the pcast!

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:23pm PDT

originally, I was going to make a mix, but I'm not good enough to make that work...the BPMs on the tracks are all over the place

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:22pm PDT

I don't work tonight, either, so I've got mad time to do this

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:21pm PDT

yeah, that might be easier, actually

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:21pm PDT

or you can stop and start recording. like, record a snippet and hit stop. then hit record again right away and it'll record on a separate track. then drag all of the snippets onto the same track when you're done.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:21pm PDT

just talk, and then be quiet for like, a few seconds, and then go on as if we actually listened to the track in question?

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

didn't we kinda do something like that for the Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 episodes?

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

I wrote all that shit down last year when you were telling me how to do the stuff

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

yeah, Split Delete

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:19pm PDT

my recommendation is to highlight a super small space and use split delete instead of split. plain split can be really finicky.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:19pm PDT

nothing fancy at all

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:19pm PDT

'cause I know I just need to do all the speaking parts in one go, and then just pop the tracks in.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:18pm PDT

as for MAKING the damn podcast, I don't think it'd be that hard, as long as that split shit works the way I want it to

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:18pm PDT

I'm not sure what the hell happened with it, honestly...just one day it decided to not convert them anymore. I didn't do anything to the program

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 1:17pm PDT

if you wanna put it together as a wav file, i can convert it. but regarding iTunes, i'm glad to try and help you trouble shoot it if you want. no pressure, just glad to help.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 12:42pm PDT

(sorry I took so long to respond, I was doing something on the Facebook page for the podcast)

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 12:39pm PDT

I could try...I just can't do the iTunes part, because for some reason it won't let me convert the podcasts anymore

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:56am PDT

wait... 27 songs??? honestly, i just don't have the time to edit something like that! i've got the Small Press Expo coming up next weekend and i'm hustling to get my stuff ready for that. plus, i'm live podcasting at a comic shop tomorrow with a friend. sorry dude! if you wanna try your hand at editing it, go for it. but there's no way you can talk me into this one :D

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:46am PDT

and from there, talk a little bit about a game, then present the three tracks, and then they get played back to back, then I talk about the next game, play those tracks...rinse and repeat

Kenny RiotFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:45am PDT

What I wanted to do was talk about what got me into Tekken in the first place, which was the music

Kenny RiotFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:16am PDT

It's a laptop, but when I'm at home, I have a docking hub that I connect it to.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:15am PDT

i thought you only had a desktop. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i'm so confused about your computer set up!!!

Kenny RiotFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:09am PDT

but yeah, I know not to fuck with the laptop if the laptop IS the mic.

Kenny RiotFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:09am PDT

My laptop already has a built in mic, and is only about a year old. Sounds like I should be alright

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:06am PDT

It's all about the type of mic you use and where you record. I'm guessing the tourney's gonna be pretty loud, right? If so, that's not a problem. The crowd conversation will actually make for good background noise as long as it's not happening directly next to your mic. But too much music / high-pitched video game sounds might get distracting or make it hard to understand your words so make sure that type of stuff isn't too close to you. The best type of mic would probably be a built-in laptop mic, so if you can borrow a friend's new-ish laptop to record, you should be golden. Laptops from before 2005-ish have kinda shitty built-in mics, but pretty much everything from the late-00s and newer seems relatively decent. All you need is Audacity and then make sure that you're both relatively close to the mic when you talk. If you want to see what a good crowd / in person interview waveform looks like in Audacity to make sure you're picking up the conversation well, check out this episode: http://www.audioshocker.com/2011/09/21/sequential-underground-25-self-publishing-with-wayne-wise I recorded that in a noisy coffee shop and even though there's stuff going on in the background, the voices cut through pretty clearly. But in the event that you can't borrow a laptop, the other good option I can think of is to buy (or borrow) a little portable voice recorder, like this: http://www.officemax.com/technology/audio-accessories/voice-recorders/digital-voice-recorders When recording with it, you treat it like an old school microphone, where you hold it up to your mouth and the point it towards the other person when they speak. I also assume there are some smart phone apps / iPad apps for voice recording that work relatively well, but I've never tried them. Whatever you end up using, just watch out for handling noises. Since the mics are built into the devices (laptops, voice recorders, phones, tablets), touching the device or passing it around to other hands will make a bunch of noise (like the noises Alex would make whenever he moved his laptop around during the KoF shows).

Kenny RiotThursday, August 16, 2012 at 7:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:14am PDT

There's a tip I forgot to share with you about Call Graph -- when you have a long recording like this, you need to leave Call Graph open for a while after your Skype call is over to finish converting the file to mp3. So, for example, if I record a two-hour conversation, I quit Skype and but I leave Call Graph open for another hour or so to make sure it fully completes the mp3 conversion. That's why you're ending up with wavs and not mp3s. And the fact that it wasn't showing up in iTunes concerns me!!! I hope the file is okay :(

yo, so i'm working on the HyperComboCast now... how come some of this audio is 16000 Hz? did you convert it to that??? NOOOOOOO!!! always 44100. if you need to make it an mp3 at like 128 kbs or something like that, that's all good. but dropping below 44100 can sometimes do nasty things to audio quality. is it your Call Graph settings that are at 16000 Hz or something else? the files i'm talking about are 50-1 and 50-5.

Kenny RiotSunday, July 8, 2012 at 8:41am PDT

I didn't even listen to it when I finished; I just sent it off to you

Kenny RiotSunday, July 8, 2012 at 8:41am PDT

That's completely my fault...My mic wasn't working in Audacity, so the first thing I did was turn up the mic. That didn't work, and then I noticed that the mic was set to something else, so I changed that, but forgot to turn the mic back down.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 8, 2012 at 8:35am PDT

I just finished putting together tomorrow's episode. There's a lot of clipping in it, which basically means that the mic levels are too high and/or the mic is too close to your mouth. I'm okay with running it tomorrow, but there's definitely a lot of fuzz when your voice gets loud. I'd like to show you how to recognize when that's happening and then explain how you can avoid it in the future. The first image I've attached is an example of the HyperComboCast #48 audio vs. AudioShocker Podcast #224 audio. Every time you see HyperComboCast's blue sound wave touch the top of the gray track bar, that means the audio is clipping. Ideally, it's best for the audio to look more like AudioShocker #224, where it's filling up anywhere between 1/2 to 3/4s of the track bar. The reason why clipping is a problem is because it creates distortion. And that distortion tends to get even more pronounced when a WAV is converted to an MP3. Basically, it sounds like there's a fuzziness to your voice whenever it's on the loud side. And because the audio was recorded with clipping, there's nothing I can do to remove it. I can lower the volume a couple of db (which I did), but the clipping is now a part of the audio signal. The best way to avoid clipping is to lower your mic input levels in Audacity. I assume you know how to do that, but just in case I've attached a second image of what the mic slider looks like. I dunno what the ideal level should be for your mic -- I recommend recording a test where you talk and move the slider around until the audio input looks good. Also, you can do a test recording before you actually start your solo episodes. That's a great way to tell if the mic input and mic proximity to your mouth are putting out a good, clean signal. Basically, my goal by saying all of this is to have you catch any audio issues before you record your episodes so we can continue to make the HyperComboCast sound better and better!!!

Thanks. I'll set that up in Call Graph. That was really my only problem.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 1, 2012 at 3:20pm PDT

Once you're done editing the audio, you'll have to select both tracks an click on the track menu again. You'll want to select "Make Stereo Track" (as seen in the third pic) and then export it. After that, you'll want to import that file into iTunes and convert it into an mp3 (make sure it's a stereo mp3 and not mono! ... you can use the same update settings I recommended for Call Graph -- 44.100 Hz and 128 kbs (and make sure "Smart Encoding Adjustments is *unchecked*!!)). But honestly, it's probably even easier if you just send me the recording with the new settings and just tell me what you need edited out. Most of the time, it's pretty quick for me to edit out weird stuff like chewing, etc. I mean, sometimes I can't get rid of it... but I've saved a lot of bad podcast recordings by performing a little surgery on them!!

Nick MarinoSunday, July 1, 2012 at 3:20pm PDT

Why don't you try out this update to your Call Graph settings (as seen in the first image) -- it will not only give you the option to edit the channels separately, but it will also make the perfect size file for you to send to me without having to convert or compress it, so that way I'll also have the channels separated as well. If you find yourself in this situation again where you want to try and fix something before you send it to me, you can edit out the unwanted noise by importing the audio file into Audacity and then select "Split Stereo to Mono" from the menu located on the top left hand side of the audio track itself (as seen in the second pic). (message cont.)...

Kenny RiotSunday, July 1, 2012 at 2:14pm PDT

I guess you just can't?

Kenny RiotSunday, July 1, 2012 at 2:14pm PDT

I mean, if it showed up as two, then it would've been easy as hell to fix, but I couldn't figure out how to split them

Kenny RiotSunday, July 1, 2012 at 2:14pm PDT

but the strange thing is that outside of the recording I did with Webster, the recordings show up in Audacity as one wavelength and not two

Kenny RiotSunday, July 1, 2012 at 2:13pm PDT

I use Call Graph like you said

Nick MarinoSunday, July 1, 2012 at 10:41am PDT

What do you use to record Skype? Call Graph?? I know that's the program I recommended but I can't remember if you use it. The way I have Call Graph set up, it records me all on the left and other people all on the right. Then I pull it into Audacity and split the stereo recording into mono channels and go from there. If yours also records that way, you could pull the recording into Audacity and use the Amplify effect to turn down the volume on your track at the one specific part when you're chewing. But I'm guessing that's not an option for you, right? If that's something you'd like to have the option to do in the future, let me know and I can help you set up Call Graph to record your voice separate from everybody else. Also, if you want to mute yourself, I personally suggest using the Skype mute button. It works like a charm. Dan uses it a lot when we record Sequential Underground and I can barely tell.

Dude...there was a Mystery tournament, and the grand finale, you'd have loved

Nick MarinoMonday, May 28, 2012 at 1:57pm PDT

i'm interested in hearing you talk about the event

Kenny RiotMonday, May 28, 2012 at 1:56pm PDT

Yeah, that'd work out well for you

Nick MarinoMonday, May 28, 2012 at 1:56pm PDT

cool!!! you should def do that and then i'll run the mrbulbamike episode on the 11th.

Kenny RiotMonday, May 28, 2012 at 12:44pm PDT

I didn't have anything planned right away, but I could record something about the UFGT8 event I was at

Nick MarinoMonday, May 28, 2012 at 11:31am PDT

YO!!!!! so i just recorded a solo episode with MrBulbamike. it came together ridiculously fast because he just finished up school for the semester but he's leaving for LA in a couple of days so this was sorta like his only good time to record for the next little while. do you have anything planned for next Monday? i can run this on the 4th if we don't have anything else. however, i'm gonna be out of town from June 5-13, so this episode would also be good for the 11th, since that way i wouldn't have to download anything from the web or spend time editing on my trip.

Kenny RiotMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:58pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:55pm PDT

heheh yeah, that's why i read the spoilers in the first place, to find out if it was true! Thanos's creator -- Jim Starlin -- said Thanos was in the movie back in 2011. but he just kinda tossed it out there like a joke and it wasn't clear if he was actually serious. me? i took it pretty seriously, so i was expecting the Thanos and i'm so happy it's true!!!

Kenny RiotMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:43pm PDT

though, if you read spoilers, you probably already know

Kenny RiotMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:40pm PDT

you're gonna freak the fuck out at the first bonus.

Kenny RiotMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:40pm PDT

There's a bonus in the middle of the credits, and at the very end

Nick MarinoMonday, May 7, 2012 at 4:39pm PDT

naw, not yet. i hear great things, though!!! but i know all about the film cuz i read spoilers.

Let's do tomorrow

Nick MarinoMonday, May 7, 2012 at 3:09pm PDT

i'm down for whatever. my schedule is a little odd this week because i have a funeral on Friday. tues: day good, night bad weds: traveling so no good at all thurs: maybe good during the day, not sure yet fri: busy all day sat: might be good during the day but probably not sun: traveling from 1-9 PM, prolly can't record before but might be able to swing the night (but might not) hahaha i know that schedule sucks hard. sorry. :D now / tonight is okay for me, but i feel totally unprepared!!!!!

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:26am PDT

I'll have to take a pic of it

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:26am PDT

nice!!!! i use the USB keyboard and Bamboo Fun tablet rig too when i'm recording. i just assumed i was the only dork who went thru that much trouble hahhahahaha

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:26am PDT

it's clipped to the docking station

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:25am PDT

so I worked around that by using this clip on Laptop cam I was using with my old laptop, which has a built in mic

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:25am PDT

now, my laptop has a built in mic and cam, which means that when I dock it, it's way too high to want to use either

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:24am PDT

so, like I said, the laptop is far away

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:24am PDT

but it works

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:24am PDT

it's frankenstiens monster as hell, I know

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:24am PDT

I have two other hubs connected to the docking station

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:24am PDT

I use an additional USB keyboard and a Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet for a mouse

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:23am PDT

which is on my desk

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:23am PDT

and that is sitting on a ledge that is above and behind my monitor

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:23am PDT

like, I have the laptop itself in a docking station / USB Hub thing

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:22am PDT

but when we normally record, I'm using my dual monitor setup, and the laptop is far away because I'm using a USB keyboard

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:21am PDT

I know, I DON'T want to use my laptop

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:21am PDT

you mean noise cancelling in terms of noise going on around you in your room, right? i've never used ear buds like that for recording so i can't speak to their ability , but i think it's worth a shot to see if they help. i recommended over the ear not because they get rid of noise around you, but because they emphasize the noise coming from the people on the other end. can you use your ear buds while still using your headset? cause that's an option too. and yeah, i'm def down for a test. FYI, using a laptop mic has its own issues... especially typing while recording or hitting the surface the laptop is sitting on. and webcam mics are generally good, but they can be weird depending on the brand. i'm not saying you'll have these problems -- just general advance warnings just in case.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:15am PDT

we can do a test over skype with it, so you can see how you feel about the quality of it

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:15am PDT

my other mic works out pretty well, I think

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:15am PDT

and you don't have to spend the extra money

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:15am PDT

so I could focus better on what you want me to look for

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:12am PDT

well, the earbuds I have are pretty damn good in terms of noise cancelling

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 8:06am PDT

that's why i prefer stationary mics instead of headsets, cause you don't have to move them or worry about too much popping! anyway, my headphones offer is on the table, so let me know either way. i'm cool with whatever you decide.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:33am PDT

'cause I think you only ever complained about ME, once.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:32am PDT

I try to keep it away for the reasons I guess you don't want to use this recording for.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:32am PDT

the creak might be me moving the mic AWAY from my mouth...

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:25am PDT

*all" not i'll

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:24am PDT

it's not necessarily bad for them to pick up a lot of sound. mostly, you just have to watch out for static in the background with mics that have a large range (cause they'll pick up AC and heater and stuff like that). but your mic is pretty good. it spikes here and there and makes a creaky noise sometimes, but i'm probably one of the few peeps that even notices that. i'd be glad to get you a pair of over the ear headphones for recording. i'll i ask is that you promise to use them when you record AND you gotta police the recordings more!!!

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:20am PDT

I have earbuds, though

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:20am PDT

I don't have any "over the ear" headphones like that

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:20am PDT

kinda the same thing going on

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:19am PDT

my cam that I use when I dual-screen-desktop with my laptop and an extra monitor also has a built in mic

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:19am PDT

my laptop has a built in mic, but it picks up EVERYTHING

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:17am PDT

those headphones might make it kinda tough to catch stuff. they're not over the ear ones, right? is that your only way to record? does your computer also have a built-in mic? the reason i ask is because recording with over the ear headphones (something that looks like this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31iDbWL0w-L.jpg) makes it easier to pick up on things that don't sound too weird in conversation but do sound really bad on a recording.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:10am PDT

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/webcam-communications/internet-headsets-phones/devices/laptop-headset-h555

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:07am PDT

here's another snippet and this one is actually pretty funny... he's breathing into the mic so much that it overtakes your voice while you're talking. now that's something you wouldn't be able to recognize as much while you're recording BUT now that you know it can happen, it's something to watch for. basically, if you can actually hear him breathing, even if it's not popping a lot, then you know he needs to adjust his mic position because it means the recording might get fucked up. what type of headphones do you wear while you're recording? because that also makes a big difference when it comes to catching this stuff.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:01am PDT

damn it.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:00am PDT

it just sucks because the conversation here was REALLY GOOD

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 7:00am PDT

Listening to it now...I mean, I hear the breathing, but it isn't fucking with me the way it is with you, I guess

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:54am PDT

i know how sometimes it sounds a little bit different when you're recording, but i really need you to notice this stuff!!! here's another sample of it from the episode from a totally different part. in editing, i do two things -- i make sure the volume is at a decent listenable level, and i do a bit of equalization where i take out sounds below 100 Hz. raising the volume just raises the volume on everything in the recording, from background noise to your voice. filtering out the low sounds under 100 Hz tends to actually soften popping sounds rather than emphasizing them. there's nothing wrong with Kayin's mic... the problem is where he has it positioned. so, for example, he had positioned differently in the Skullgirls episode and it just didn't pop (or if it did, it wasn't very present). when you guys recorded this one, he either had it closer to his mouth or more directly in front of it. sometimes, when i record with people who i know may have had audio problems in the past, i literally have them test with me before we start recording. for example, Shawn on Sequential Underground. he has a headset and often he ends up breathing into it or popping it if i don't say something to him. so i'll test him by having him say a couple of sentences before we record. i ask him to say stuff with lots of Ps and Bs in it, because those are the sounds that really push air into the mic. and if it is popping or catching breath, then i ask him to re-position his mic until we get it right. i've spent upwards of 20 mins sometimes getting my guests sounding good. now i'm not saying you need to be as particular about it as i am, but it would mean a ton to me if you could at least catch stuff like these popping sounds. Kayin starts off okay on this one, but about 10 mins into the episode (or 30 into the overall recording) he really starts popping the mic. personally, i recommend stopping him, telling him his sound is a little off, and then picking up the convo again when it sounds better. if you feel like it's really tough for you to catch that stuff, i don't mind recording with you guys. i mean, i can just hit mute when it comes time to record and not talk during the episode. but i can be there to get the levels right at the beginning and catch things if they start to slip during the episode.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

or is this some kind of fluke?

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

was he that bad with the Skullgirls episode?

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

ain't much else I can say about it, really.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

and it's your site, not mine

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

you're the expert, not me

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

I dunno

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

so maybe recording is different than being in the convo

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

that sample you sent me, yeah, his breath picked up a lot there, but for real, it didn't sound like that when we were actually having that convo

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:34am PDT

but I dunno, maybe shit is just different when it comes to the editing phase

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:34am PDT

like, everything else ever has been fine when I recorded

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:34am PDT

the only time I ever had a straight up bad recording was the episode I did with Kitty

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:33am PDT

either that, or I just didn't notice it.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:33am PDT

It didn't sound like that when we were talking though

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:32am PDT

with the exception of tons of static, i personally think popping the mic / blowing lots of air into the mic is as bad as it gets for a recording. i mean, that's just my personal threshold... but i would hope we both agree that (regardless where it ranks on our own bad scales) it sounds pretty bad when Kayin talks in this episode. also, i dunno any other way to say this other than... i'm begging you to watch out for the recording quality a little bit more!! as soon as you hear Kayin popping the mic, all you have have to do is ask him to adjust it and then have him say a sentence or two to test things out. i don't mind cutting that type of thing out of the recording if needs be. i mean, it happens to me all of the time when i record.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:16am PDT

but whatever, it's your site, man.

Kenny RiotMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:16am PDT

...it's better than incessnt echoing

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 6:14am PDT

what the fuck is up with Kayin's recording quality on this episode??? he's blowing ridiculous amounts of air into the mic when he talks! check out the mp3 sample i attached. if it just happened a couple of times, i'd be okay with it. but it happens like 75% of the time that he talks. i hate to say this, but i can't post it on the AudioShocker.

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:30am PDT

You probably didn't realize it because I'm pretty sure we didn't RECORD on Justique's birthday

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:24am PDT

yeah, it can be that monday, though

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:24am PDT

you can NEVER celebrate it, then

Nick MarinoFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:22am PDT

yeah, i didn't even realize that until you said it just now hahaha

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:21am PDT

...holy shit.

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:21am PDT

we started on Justique's birthday?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:21am PDT

me personally? not really. i have a regularly scheduled episode of Ross and Nick, and it's Justique's b-day :D but i'm down for doing a one-year anniversary celebration podcast if you'd like. would you be okay if i ran it on the 14th, though? i'd prefer to keep the show on its regular day unless you can convince me otherwise!!

Kenny RiotFriday, April 27, 2012 at 6:05am PDT

Kayin' and Kenny Riot discuss the various ways fighting game developers handled methods of introducing unlockables in their games, whether or not they were beneficial to replay value for the players or just testing their patience, and whether or not DLC kills said replay value. After that, they switch it up from discussing accessibility of content, to accessibility of the genre itself.

He won't be able to podcast until he's done with his college semester (end of May), but he gave us permission to use his UMvC3 songs on the podcast. So I'm going to start putting one after the end theme whenever appropriate, if that's cool with you.

Kenny RiotWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 9:33am PDT

That'll work fine

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 9:32am PDT

hahaha nice!!! sunday again?

Kenny RiotWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 9:30am PDT

but yeah, we could do that

Kenny RiotWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 9:29am PDT

I'm playing it now

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 9:29am PDT

Wanna talk Skullgirls for next week? I'm gonna buy it today.

Kenny RiotSunday, April 8, 2012 at 10:55am PDT

I meant my time

Kenny RiotSunday, April 8, 2012 at 10:55am PDT

*woke

Kenny RiotSunday, April 8, 2012 at 10:55am PDT

hahaha, shit, I just wke up

Nick MarinoSunday, April 8, 2012 at 8:53am PDT

1 is fine... but 1 your time or my time?

Kenny RiotSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 11:46pm PDT

does 1 sound good?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 11:45pm PDT

coooooooooooooooooool, well i'll be around. i'll try to check FB every half hour or so. just lemme know when you wanna record.

Kenny RiotSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 4:07pm PDT

*before

Kenny RiotSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 4:07pm PDT

brfore

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 7, 2012 at 4:07pm PDT

okay, what works better for you -- before or after that?

Kenny RiotFriday, April 6, 2012 at 4:47pm PDT

Sunday works, but I have to go visit my mom at like, 5

Nick MarinoFriday, April 6, 2012 at 10:15am PDT

How's Sunday looking for ya?

Kenny RiotFriday, April 6, 2012 at 7:51am PDT

So...when exactly did you want to record?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:48am PDT

yeah, i understand. i've never done factory stuff but i've definitely had those style of boring jobs.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:42am PDT

it's just a factory job.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:42am PDT

it's not exactly exciting, so I don't have much else to say about it

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:41am PDT

it's going alright

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:40am PDT

hahahaha. how's the new job going, BTW?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:38am PDT

We're busy men.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:37am PDT

okay, cool. thx for being flexible about this.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:33am PDT

That's fine

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:27am PDT

completely understood. okay, well i gotta head out in a few mins. i'm sorry i fucked this up so bad. here's what i'm thinking (if you're okay with it) -- i'll do a solo episode for this monday, and then we'll ACTUALLY do the Waku Waku episode for the following week.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:27am PDT

if I was at my moms, it wouldn't be an issue

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:26am PDT

which totally makes sense.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:26am PDT

I don't think my roommates have the same plan my mom does

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:26am PDT

I believe so.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:25am PDT

hahahaha right. so can you only call local on it?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:24am PDT

which, I am not in.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:21am PDT

okay, how does it work in terms of minutes or long distance? basically, with talkshoe, we can record our phone conversation... but it requires calling a phone number in the 724 area code.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:19am PDT

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:18am PDT

okay. donkey punch. this isn't going as smooth as i thought. do you have a house phone?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:13am PDT

i'm just verifying right now

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:13am PDT

i think it's a way that i can talk over the phone, you can be on your computer, and we can record the call.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:10am PDT

at least...not a cell phone.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:09am PDT

right.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:09am PDT

you don't have a phone, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:09am PDT

link incoming

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:08am PDT

talkshoe?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:08am PDT

here's what i'm thinking -- TalkShoe. tomorrow morning.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:08am PDT

ah.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:08am PDT

which is awesome that we could still record this morning... but my only problem is that i still haven't played the game plus i got some other shit to do this morning, like the usual stuff i'd originally planned to do after we recorded.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:07am PDT

in other news...I'll be up until like...11-ish

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:07am PDT

fuck iPhones.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:06am PDT

okay, i just read something that said skype works on an iphone over 3G...

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:05am PDT

and will be home at the same time tomorrow

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:05am PDT

because I work tonight

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:05am PDT

when is "go time"?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:05am PDT

but that sorta rules out Skype because as far as i can tell, i can only use Skype on wifi, not on my mobile internet.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 7:04am PDT

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM okay so here's what I'm thinking... i have a roadtrip to make tomorrow morning, so that means i'm just gonna be driving for hours. the perfect time to talk about this stuff.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:59am PDT

yeah it's fucking sweet as hell.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:58am PDT

especially for us.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:58am PDT

that is the best trophy ever.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:58am PDT

Seriously

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:57am PDT

fucking awesome! i wish i could comment on the facebook post or even like your comment, but it won't let me.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:57am PDT

http://ufgtus.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/ufgt8-1st-place-trophies-include-power-space-time-soul-reality-and-mind/#

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:57am PDT

FUDGE!!!! i've got an art show tonight and it starts at 7 something.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:57am PDT

in other news...

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:55am PDT

yeah, like...8 PM

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:55am PDT

hahaha do you have any other good times during the day?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:55am PDT

listen to podcasts while working.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:55am PDT

go to work

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:55am PDT

wake up...do things.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:54am PDT

SLEEP

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:54am PDT

oh man i'm in it. you have no idea. i feel like the biggest podcast asshole in the world right now. SO WHAT SHOULD WE DO??? my dumb ass obviously needs to play this game and you've got a life to get on with... what's your day like?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:46am PDT

go sit in the corner!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:45am PDT

hahahahahaa i'm sure you can guess -- I FUCKING FORGOT. as usual. and here's the most embarrassing part... i forgot to play Waku Waku 7. <FACEPALM> i'm sorry, man. i got no excuse. Friday is my Kryptonite when it comes to podcasting.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 30, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

Where's DAT FURIOUS!?!

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 2:57pm PDT

That's do-able as well

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 2:57pm PDT

how about 9:30 my time, 8:30 yours?

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 2:54pm PDT

hell, we can go old school and do 11am central

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 2:53pm PDT

Nah, I eat later, if I'm awake enough for it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 8:04am PDT

okay, cool. do you eat right when you get home? basically, i'm wondering what a good start time is for you.

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:42am PDT

I usually walk in the door at about a quarter to 8

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:42am PDT

that's right.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:38am PDT

okay sweeet!!!! around what time? i'm assuming you just get out at 7:15, not home... right?

Kenny RiotTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:37am PDT

That works great.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:36am PDT

this weekend sucks for me. but sometime this week could work. how would you feel about Friday morning after you get home from work? good time or bad time?

Kenny RiotMonday, March 26, 2012 at 7:41pm PDT

so, yeah, lemme know when you wanna do the Waku Waku 7 cast

Kenny RiotMonday, March 26, 2012 at 7:41pm PDT

free on the weekend until further notice

Kenny RiotMonday, March 26, 2012 at 7:40pm PDT

Monday through Friday (really, it's more like Tuesday through Saturday) 11PM - 7:15 AM

Kenny RiotMonday, March 26, 2012 at 7:40pm PDT

I've got a pretty damn consistent schedule now, with this new job

Kenny RiotMonday, March 26, 2012 at 7:40pm PDT

Oh yeah, when did you want to record?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 23, 2012 at 4:55pm PDT

Yes...yes you do.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 23, 2012 at 5:23am PDT

sweeet! all i gotta do is finally fucking play the game!!!!!

Kenny RiotThursday, March 22, 2012 at 2:44pm PDT

and I can record Waku Waku next week, no problem

Kenny RiotThursday, March 22, 2012 at 2:44pm PDT

let's run that shit

Kenny RiotThursday, March 22, 2012 at 2:44pm PDT

Hell no, it's not off topic at all

Nick MarinoThursday, March 22, 2012 at 12:40pm PDT

hahahahaha oh well... some people, ya know? i also know how awkward it can be to ask someone to change their setup once you've already got them ready to record, so i figured you could just blame things on me and be like "look my producer is a dick so this is what you gotta do." hope it helps! also, for real, wanna record waku waku next week? also, i have an interview i wanna do for a future episode... jim rugg has done a bunch of posters and promo art for street fighter tournaments in the past couple of years. i thought it would be interesting to hear about how an artist approaches the characters in an out-of-game context. i might also be able to score an interview with some of the UDON artists who used to work on the Street Fighter comics. Ross is buds with one of them. do you think that's too off-topic for an episode?

Kenny RiotMonday, March 19, 2012 at 8:09am PDT

I literally WINCED when she said that to me

Kenny RiotMonday, March 19, 2012 at 8:08am PDT

I'm sure you heard her all like, "blah, he can edit it out, whatever"

Kenny RiotMonday, March 19, 2012 at 8:08am PDT

she kinda needs the ego check, anyways

Kenny RiotMonday, March 19, 2012 at 8:08am PDT

Nah, that shit is valid, man.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 19, 2012 at 8:05am PDT

i left a little surprise at the beginning of the podcast. also, i'm a dick.

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 2:58pm PDT

thanks

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 2:50pm PDT

AWESOME! Well done, my friend. Well done.

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:51pm PDT

and we're good for two weeks!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:50pm PDT

35 is also shared with you

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:50pm PDT

alright

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:40pm PDT

(So, yeah, just take out the "Side A" for episode 34)

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:39pm PDT

"Kenny Riot brings John 'Zansam' Amenta back to discuss what attracts them to certain fighting games. Remember your first time with a certain game that grabbed you the right way? Tell us about it!"

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:37pm PDT

HyperComboCast 35: Attract Mode

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:37pm PDT

Shownotes...

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:24pm PDT

then I'll just call it 35

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

if you want, we can just save 34 B for next week. i posted a double-mp3 podcast a couple of months ago and then promptly remembered that only the first file gets added to the RSS feed when you do that, so if these are intended to be separate, then i say make 'em separate blog posts!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 12:44pm PDT

the first recording has already been shared to you

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 12:41pm PDT

I'm actually recording the other one right now

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 12:41pm PDT

AWESOME!!!! Thx!!!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 12:35pm PDT

Call this episode 34: Side A - Dressed to Kill

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:35am PDT

Kitty, as Jill Valentine.

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:32am PDT

Frank West, originally of Dead Rising, but also appears in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:30am PDT

Ran, of Project Justice

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:29am PDT

Kurow, of Project Justice

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:28am PDT

Yurika, of Project Justice

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:28am PDT

characters we discussed...

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:05am PDT

"HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER! Kenny Riot brings on his friend Kitty "Miss Strawberry" Anderson to discuss cosplay and fighting games...though the conversation is definitely leaning more towards cosplay, heh."

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:03am PDT

Anyways...show notes

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:21am PDT

so, let me know if you're able to work around it or not

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:21am PDT

she didn't have headphones or anything

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:21am PDT

she's outside because her boyfriend was sleeping...and she comes in fine, but I echo

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:21am PDT

I dunno how you're gonna feel about this one though

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:20am PDT

we weren't able to record yesterday, but it's all good now

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 17, 2012 at 10:20am PDT

Ok, recording is done

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 8:09am PDT

granted, the deadline wouldn't even be a problem, this week, because I send the recording DIRECTLY after it's converted, and I do that AS SOON AS I STOP RECORDING.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 16, 2012 at 8:08am PDT

hehehe well i guess we'll have to experiment a little bit to make it work. i can record both before and after your shift, so i'm flexible. i think thurs might be my best day/night next week.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 8:02am PDT

otherwise, I just don't sleep on Saturday

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 8:02am PDT

and that also means your deadline is my worst enemy now, because I'm ASLEEP DURING IT.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:59am PDT

...that's usually around when I go to bed

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:59am PDT

today's recording is at 11

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:58am PDT

'cause depending on when people can record, I would either have to go to bed AS SOON AS I GET HOME FROM WORK (when I'm not tired), or way later than I should (like, 3PM or something)

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:58am PDT

and my sleep schedule will be dictated by it.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:57am PDT

the problem that I didn't realize beforehand, is that my "able to record" time is now HORRIBLE

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:56am PDT

it has it's ups and downs.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:56am PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:55am PDT

oh shizzz!!!! NIGHTSHIFT!

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:47am PDT

I'm still figuring out bedtime.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:47am PDT

Monday through Friday (technically saturday morning) 11PM - 7-ishAM

Nick MarinoFriday, March 16, 2012 at 7:46am PDT

THUMBS UP! wanna do the waku waku episode for next week? BTW, what are your new hours?

Kenny RiotFriday, March 16, 2012 at 6:16am PDT

Gonna be recording some shit today before I go to sleep (third shift is a motherfucker). This is gonna be a cosplay-themed episode with a friend of mine

Nick MarinoMonday, March 12, 2012 at 11:05am PDT

hahahaha yeah but philly works me. no biggie

Kenny RiotMonday, March 12, 2012 at 4:58am PDT

hahaha, I said somethin' about "You're not in Philly" in the episode...what the fuck, you're in Pittsburgh, aren't you?

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 10, 2012 at 3:38pm PST

"Kenny Riot discusses how Youtube video creator, Miles923 a.k.a. Maxamillian of "Assist Me", basically said everything else he could've said about all the current controversy surrounding Street Fighter X Tekken. Instead, Kenny proposes an idea for a Convention for Fighting Games, after telling all you listeners to rep Audioshocker at it's fullest."

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 10, 2012 at 3:35pm PST

Episode 33: Words with the Quickness!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 10, 2012 at 3:35pm PST

Alright...cuttin' it close, I know. Busy Day today, and it's gonna get busier.

Kenny RiotFriday, March 9, 2012 at 12:08pm PST

I gotta come up with a Plan C, then

Kenny RiotFriday, March 9, 2012 at 12:07pm PST

Crap.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 9, 2012 at 9:02am PST

sorry, not gonna be able to record this weekend. i'm still out of town. dont get back until the 13th.

Kenny RiotWednesday, March 7, 2012 at 8:46pm PST

hit me up

Kenny RiotWednesday, March 7, 2012 at 8:46pm PST

Yo, you wanna record somethin' today or tomorrow? Maybe the wakuwaku 7 episode?

Kenny RiotSunday, March 4, 2012 at 2:58pm PST

The mic was a problem this time? Odd. I didn't do anything different from when I normally record. (I use a headset)

Nick MarinoSunday, March 4, 2012 at 9:17am PST

episode is scheduled to post tomorrow at 10:15 EST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 4, 2012 at 7:17am PST

oh, and we do have a twitter... @audioshocker!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 4, 2012 at 7:10am PST

but regardless of my bitching... good episode! i'm listening right now.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 4, 2012 at 6:25am PST

since i'm in a time crunch this weekend, i can't really sweat it and i'm just gonna put it out there anyway... but normally, i'd ask you to rerecord because there are a ton of mic movement noises on this week's recording. here and there, i don't mind those sounds... but they're pretty consistent on this one. just something to keep in mind for the future! thx.

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 2:37pm PST

haha, thanks

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 2:33pm PST

Awesome topic. I'm so glad you podcasted about it.

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 2:04pm PST

A'ight, it's on google docs

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:53pm PST

there you go for the show notes

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:53pm PST

"Kenny takes time out to record another solo-episode to address the recent controversy around 'Cross Assault', a reality show / commercial about Street Fighter X Tekken, and how the behavior that the controversy is about isn't indicative of the fighting game community as a whole."

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

"HyperComboCast 32: We're not bad apples"

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

I was about to convert it and send it

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

I literally JUST finished it

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

It's pretty good, thx! If theres any chance you could make sure it's uploaded tonight that'd be awesome cause I only have wifi at the hotel. Then tomorrow I'm back to Justique's house. Also don't forget show notes!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:21pm PST

hope you're havin' a good time at the con, man!

Kenny RiotSaturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:21pm PST

alright, about to record my solo episode...

Nick MarinoMonday, February 27, 2012 at 8:03am PST

groovy, thx.

Kenny RiotMonday, February 27, 2012 at 7:57am PST

"Kenny brings on John "ZanSam" Amenta again to discuss the trials and tribulations of an often overlooked aspect of playing fighting games; the pursuit of bettering yourself. Get your notebooks out and start takin' notes, 'cause this episode is quite important!"

Kenny RiotMonday, February 27, 2012 at 7:55am PST

yeah, I was just about to type that up for you real quick

Nick MarinoMonday, February 27, 2012 at 7:54am PST

gotcha! and any show notes are always appreciated.

Kenny RiotMonday, February 27, 2012 at 7:53am PST

call it, "The Battle Within"

Kenny RiotMonday, February 27, 2012 at 7:52am PST

oh yeah, kinda last minute, but I never said what the title was

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 7:47pm PST

no problem

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 6:03pm PST

thx!

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 4:18pm PST

SENT!

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 3:23pm PST

Ok, so for pt1 of the recording, the technical difficulty happens around 26 minutes in.

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 3:19pm PST

Ok...recording is done, but there was a technical difficulty while John and I were recording, so I'm sending you two files this time

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 25, 2012 at 10:26am PST

Thx for the update! Just keep me posted on the progress :)

Kenny RiotFriday, February 24, 2012 at 4:34pm PST

Nevermind, we gotta record tomorrow...shit got in the way on his end, though I STRESSED to him what the deadline is. I should have the recording ready by 6c, like you want me to.

Kenny RiotThursday, February 23, 2012 at 10:10pm PST

A'ight...should be recording episode 31 with John (Zansam) today...I'll have the episode to you afterwards.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 8:30pm PST

but podcast crossovers are always dope.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 8:29pm PST

It was great

Nick MarinoSunday, February 19, 2012 at 8:28pm PST

sounds good. i dunno anything about wrestling, though, so most of it is totally foreign territory for me. how'd you enjoy recording it?

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 7:00pm PST

What'd you think of the episode, otherwise?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 19, 2012 at 6:59pm PST

gracias!

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 6:52pm PST

alright then, I'll make sure it's right next time.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 6:52pm PST

Oh, word?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 19, 2012 at 6:51pm PST

hey i'm just finishing up the podcast and noticed something -- the audio you sent me is at 16.000 kHz. the distortion isn't too bad on it, but if you can in the future, try to set the files at 44.100 kHz. That preserves the quality a bit more. personally, i don't mind downloading a larger file -- i'd rather have the 44.100 instead.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 3:50pm PST

so yeah, check out your store and see whats up, first

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 3:49pm PST

they usually have some kind of trade in specials, but I dunno if you HAVE to be a member to take advantage of 'em (I'm a member)

Kenny RiotSunday, February 19, 2012 at 3:48pm PST

I buy used sometimes, but I hardly trade anything in anymore...especially now

Nick MarinoSunday, February 19, 2012 at 10:06am PST

totally unrelated to the show... do you ever trade in games at GameSpot or buy used stuff there? i have some stuff i'm not playing (KoFXII, BlazBlue, etc.) and I was thinking about trading them in for some $$$ towards UMvC3, but I'm wondering the best time to do that... do you think a lot of peeps will be trading in UMvC3 for SFxT? I was thinking that'd be a good time to try and get it for a bit less than it is right now

Nick MarinoSunday, February 19, 2012 at 7:54am PST

THX!

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 4:13pm PST

"Today, on HyperComboCast, Kenny invites special guest, Joe "Shakewell" Drilling of OnTheStick.com, to discuss various aspects of Pro Wrestling and how they influenced fighting games. Step into the squared circle and experience this podcast crossover!"

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 4:09pm PST

Shit...just woke back up

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 8:18am PST

yeah, I'll write some up for you

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 8:16am PST

Okay, cool. Do you have any show notes you want me to include?

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 2:21am PST

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_crL_-Tcu8&feature=related

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 2:21am PST

Oh yeah, there's a point where Joe is watching a Tekken 3 King video that was like, 6+ minutes long...I think I found it

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:59pm PST

...aaaaaaaand, it's shared with you

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:57pm PST

The actual episode starts 3:33 into the recording.

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:56pm PST

I'm uploading it to google docs NOW, so I'm gonna be sending it to you in a moment.

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:56pm PST

Its gonna be called "The Squared Circle"

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:55pm PST

Ok...got it all sorted out.

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:03am PST

it's always a Wav, but I usually don't have problems

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:03am PST

yeah, it's a Wav

Nick MarinoFriday, February 17, 2012 at 9:02am PST

weird... how big is the file? and is it a wav?

Kenny RiotFriday, February 17, 2012 at 8:55am PST

For some reason, iTunes wasn't letting me convert it...lemme try at it some more, today

Nick MarinoFriday, February 17, 2012 at 7:01am PST

SWEEEEET! The sooner the better :) THX!

Kenny RiotThursday, February 16, 2012 at 9:12pm PST

A'ight...HCC 30's been recorded. Gotta convert it and send it to you.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:08pm PST

i feel like ive listened to on the stick before...

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:07pm PST

and both can be found at www.onthestick.com

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:07pm PST

and "Action Cast" - which is an Action Movie review podcast

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:07pm PST

"On The Stick" - is about video games, but on a recent and general level

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:07pm PST

but yeah, the guy I have guesting on this episode does a couple podcasts of his own

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:06pm PST

Either way, Monday is covered

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:06pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:06pm PST

okay, i'll check back with you in a couple of days and we can see what's up at that point. the only thing that might come up for me is a family thing and i might have to drive to the philly area on short notice. otherwise, i plan to be around.

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:02pm PST

Ah. Well, whatever time works best for you, I'm down with.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:01pm PST

yeah, the getting ready stuff is pretty much done. now i just got other shit to do!!! haha

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:00pm PST

I can do more than one recording in a week, I was just throwin' that option out there 'cause I know you've been getting ready for your trip.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 7:00pm PST

well, as of right now, i could record this week... i think it comes down to how you want to work things... we could save this recording for when i'm out of town in early march, or if you're just really excited to get this episode out there, i'm totally fine with running it on monday. whatever you prefer.

Kenny RiotTuesday, February 14, 2012 at 6:58pm PST

Looks like Joe "Shakewell" Drilling and I will record on Thursday, so you and I don't have to record this week if you're too busy.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 13, 2012 at 5:34am PST

thumbs up!!!!!

Kenny RiotMonday, February 13, 2012 at 2:56am PST

PODCAST NEWS. Potential guest for the Wrestling based episode gave me a response and is down to record with me. Gonna set somethin' up and I'll get it sent to you as soon as it's recorded

Kenny RiotSunday, February 12, 2012 at 11:03am PST

gimmie a sec

Kenny RiotSunday, February 12, 2012 at 11:03am PST

so am I

Nick MarinoSunday, February 12, 2012 at 11:02am PST

okay i'm on!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 12, 2012 at 8:18am PST

sounds great! i just woke up ;)

Kenny RiotSunday, February 12, 2012 at 5:00am PST

Yo, can we shift up an hour, today? 1pm Central cool?

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:22pm PST

yeah, there's some shit to be said about that

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:22pm PST

for fighting games, of course.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:21pm PST

cool idea. i don't know anything about the SF or MK action figures though :( i'm trying to think of some weird periphery stuff i might know about... OH! ya know what i think would be a cool episode topic? arcade cabinet art and design.

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:15pm PST

off the top of my head, I can recall Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, for sure

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:15pm PST

but I need to do some more research to see if it's like, I can do an episode on one particular franchise, in that respect, or if it would just be a general "hahaha, fighting game action figures" episode

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:14pm PST

I have some ideas on other random shit, like action figures based on Street fighter, and shit like that

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:13pm PST

Sunday would work out. I don't have anything going on outside of decompressing from the awesome shit happening tomorrow night.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:12pm PST

Sorry I forgot to share the group!!! Had a crazy busy past couple fo days, so I'll just wait till Monday. I've got a super busy weekend so I won't have a chance to talk about Waku Waku 7 before we record this weekend. Any other ideas? I'll think of a few things and send em over. Wanna record on Sunday again?

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 4:05am PST

We should talk about Waku Waku 7...

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 4:04am PST

Gotta get back at my other homeboy, Mike, and see if he managed to get himself a new mic yet

Kenny RiotFriday, February 10, 2012 at 4:04am PST

Let's do a team-up next week. I sent out a couple e-Mails for future episodes. One is confirmed, but won't be happening for a couple weeks. Waiting on an answer for the other one...

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:10pm PST

Lemme get back to you on that

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:03pm PST

okay, that's cool. i can put my solo thing together in a pinch, if needs be. i'd just need all day sunday to get it together. i'm also down for another team up if you have any good topic ideas.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:01pm PST

so I gotta see what the response will be, for that.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:01pm PST

I sent out a message to a fellow podcaster to do an episode about wrestler-characters and shit

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 5:01pm PST

We can do another team up, or you can start that concept episode you wanted to do

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 4:59pm PST

got anything planned for next monday or do you wanna team up again for another episode?

Kenny RiotSunday, February 5, 2012 at 10:56am PST

2:20

Kenny RiotSunday, February 5, 2012 at 10:56am PST

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9HmOyIRJF0

Kenny RiotSunday, February 5, 2012 at 9:55am PST

dope shit

Nick MarinoSunday, February 5, 2012 at 9:54am PST

okay, cool. finishing a few things up. i'll be on at noon.

Kenny RiotSunday, February 5, 2012 at 9:53am PST

Ready whenever you are

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 3:24pm PST

yeah, that works

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 3:24pm PST

Hmmmmm wanna say noon your time?

Kenny RiotSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 2:12pm PST

whatever yours is, basically.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 4, 2012 at 7:54am PST

okay groovy! what's your best time?

Kenny RiotFriday, February 3, 2012 at 2:58pm PST

Sunday would be great

Nick MarinoFriday, February 3, 2012 at 2:57pm PST

Saturday is so-so. I'm podcasting in the afternoon. What about your Sunday? Like late morning, early afternoon?

Kenny RiotFriday, February 3, 2012 at 1:40pm PST

I dunno what Saturday is lookin' like for you

Kenny RiotFriday, February 3, 2012 at 1:40pm PST

Today, I'd like to get it done ASAP, 'cause I got some shit goin' on tonight

Kenny RiotFriday, February 3, 2012 at 1:39pm PST

I just finally got out of bed

Kenny RiotFriday, February 3, 2012 at 1:39pm PST

Fuckin' hell, I slept horribly

Nick MarinoFriday, February 3, 2012 at 9:40am PST

later today would be good for me. i'm pretty busy this afternoon. what's your schedule like?

Kenny RiotThursday, February 2, 2012 at 7:09pm PST

if you wanna record tomorrow, I'm down

Kenny RiotThursday, February 2, 2012 at 7:08pm PST

Well, it's a general topic...doesn't have to be LONG

Nick MarinoThursday, February 2, 2012 at 6:53pm PST

i'd be down for a topic like that. but i also feel like that's a super broad thing to talk about and i'd end up only having a few games i could really discuss :( i'm definitely in for it, but i just want you to know that i'll probably have a lot of games that i won't have anything to say about. either gaps of knowledge on my part or just nothing to say about them. i'm still gonna do the umvc3 thing because i'm looking forward to the challenge of it. and i think i'd like to do that solo anyway cause then i can run through kinda quick and type up my thoughts about the drawings ahead of time and read them for the episode.

Kenny RiotThursday, February 2, 2012 at 12:42pm PST

...so do you wanna do what I said as a topic, or no?

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:46pm PST

which would include what you're talking about

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:46pm PST

could spin it and talk about art direction in fighting games

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:46pm PST

eh, not really

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:29pm PST

hahahahaha told you it was stupid!

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:29pm PST

it's funny in a way because Hyper Combo Wallpaper is the launchpad for HyperComboCast anyways...

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:29pm PST

ah...gotcha...

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 6:28pm PST

Whoops! My bad. Forgot. Okay, so the idea is a merger of Hyper Combo Wallpaper and the HyperComboCast. One of my favorite things about Capcom fighting games are the characters pinups they draw for the games. Ya know, the ones all done in the same style, and each game gets its own new style. Not too long ago, Capcom released the whole batch of hi-res pinups from UMvC3. And I was thinking about doing another tourney, this time pitting the character drawings against one another. But the beauty of it is that each match-up results in a wallpaper-ish image. See was I was planning to do this as filler? It's not a particularly fascinating topic, nor is it something easily discussed, IMO. I was just planning to go through, pick a few characters, and wallpaper 'em, and then do a short podcast about it.

Kenny RiotWednesday, February 1, 2012 at 5:20pm PST

So, when're you gonna tell me what that idea was?

Kenny RiotMonday, January 30, 2012 at 9:41am PST

AFTER I recorded, I think

Kenny RiotMonday, January 30, 2012 at 9:41am PST

Nah, it was from the 27th

Nick MarinoMonday, January 30, 2012 at 9:39am PST

very cool! is it a response to today's show? (which, BTW, was an awesome topic)

Kenny RiotMonday, January 30, 2012 at 8:59am PST

Oh shit, we got a new piece of fan-mail!

Kenny RiotSunday, January 29, 2012 at 8:20pm PST

Cool shit.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 29, 2012 at 8:20pm PST

hahaha we could definitely do that show together... honestly, i just thought you would think it's stupid!!!! i'm kinda busy right now but i'll send you a more thorough description of the idea tomorrow.

Kenny RiotSunday, January 29, 2012 at 6:07pm PST

Hey, Nick...what was that idea you had for an episode, and why wouldn't we be able to do it together? Since I'm not working, I'm free pretty much ALL DAY EVERY DAY until further notice!

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 9:37pm PST

I'm completely fine with that.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 9:37pm PST

That works really good

Nick MarinoFriday, January 27, 2012 at 9:26pm PST

cool title... but kinda long (it'll get gut off in google and itunes and some other places). how about "HyperComboCast #28 - Comebacks and Limitations" for the title of the post? then i could put the full "Comeback Mechanics and Self Imposed Limitations" name somewhere within the blog post.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 8:34pm PST

I think the episode should be called somethin' like, "Comeback Mechanics and Self Imposed Limitations"

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 8:33pm PST

Should be in your google documents folder

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 8:33pm PST

Done.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 8:33pm PST

A'ight...it's about to be good to go, man!

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 5:05pm PST

sorry...the "Thumbs Up!" reminded me of Captain America

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 5:05pm PST

Nik Furious' next album: Final Justice

Nick MarinoFriday, January 27, 2012 at 5:00pm PST

thumbs up!

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 4:04pm PST

and you know I'm sendin' it to you AS SOON as it's done.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 4:04pm PST

I'm recording it tonight

Kenny RiotFriday, January 27, 2012 at 4:03pm PST

Dude, I know.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 27, 2012 at 3:46pm PST

podcast reminder!

Kenny RiotThursday, January 26, 2012 at 9:52am PST

Ok, thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, January 26, 2012 at 8:47am PST

not much of a fan. i liked it a bit when i was little, like when IRS was a wrestler. so funny. other than that, i don't know much or have much to say.

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:18pm PST

Yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:13pm PST

like as in WWE type of stuff?

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:07pm PST

(this is for a future episode)

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:06pm PST

Oh yeah...what're your thoughts on wrestling?

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:06pm PST

No problem, man

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 5:32pm PST

okay, cool, if you need any help sending it, lemme know.

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 4:35pm PST

Heard from homeboy...he needs to fix his mic, but I know his schedule now, anyways. Still sendin' you the solo episode by the end of the week. Goin' with the google docs option.

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 4:34pm PST

UPDATE!

Kenny RiotWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 11:37am PST

ain't heard from homeboy, so I'm gonna do that solo one I said I was gonna do and send you that shit. Just fillin' out some apps right now. It's like every motherfucker wants you to do it online now.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 11:36am PST

podcast update?

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:18pm PST

that'd be better for all of us

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:18pm PST

preferably something with a STEADY schedule

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:18pm PST

hope I find a new job quick though

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:17pm PST

just gotta figure out when to do it

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:17pm PST

so, it should be a fun one when it jumps off

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:17pm PST

plus, there's more bleedover for him because he's HEAVILY into Sentai style japanese shows (power ranger shit, basically)

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:17pm PST

yeah, he's really big into the mecha stuff, and I know there's been quite a few mech-based fighting games

Nick MarinoSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:14pm PST

very cool. i'd love to listen to that.

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:11pm PST

I was talkin' to a friend of mine about doin' an Anime-related episode soon

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:11pm PST

The new deadline is fine

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:09pm PST

doing "nice clothes laundry" right now

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:09pm PST

so I've been prepping job hunting shit all weekend

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:08pm PST

the megaupload thing and me losing my job kinda dicked things up

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:08pm PST

I know, neither do I

Nick MarinoSunday, January 22, 2012 at 8:08pm PST

ughhhhhhhhhhhh it's too late now for me to do anything, at least tonight. next time if you're not gonna be able to do anything for the week PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know on Saturday, not Sunday. as a safety precaution, I'm gonna bump up the time i need the episode from you. from now on, let's make it 6 PM on Saturday. because that way, i'll have all of Sunday to scrap something together. when i find out on a Sunday afternoon, that doesn't leave me much time. some days i can pull it off, but other days i can't. i really don't like missing the scheduled time.

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 2:12pm PST

Go ahead and do your backup plan one

Kenny RiotSunday, January 22, 2012 at 2:12pm PST

I know 2 PM...I've been busy as shit. It's coming late this week 'cause I still gotta set up that new site account so I can send you stuff again (fucking FBI, right?)

Nick MarinoSunday, January 22, 2012 at 1:07pm PST

yo what's the word on the cast? i need to get that from you ASAP because i have a lot of stuff going on tonight. for any future episodes, i'd mucho appreciate it if you could have them to me no later than 2 PM EST on Sundays.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:53pm PST

get the hunt goin' fast and hard

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:53pm PST

gonna act on 'em on monday

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:53pm PST

I've already been given some leads

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:53pm PST

Thanks

Nick MarinoFriday, January 20, 2012 at 8:51pm PST

awwwww man i just saw your post about losing your job. i'm sorry!!!! good luck finding a new one.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 5:05pm PST

Ok, I'll check it out and get back to you...I've got nothing but time right now

Nick MarinoFriday, January 20, 2012 at 4:48pm PST

okay cool! i wish i could be of more help with how to use it... but i've never tried it out. lemme know if i can do anything.

Kenny RiotFriday, January 20, 2012 at 4:43pm PST

I think the second option you proposed is a really good one.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 20, 2012 at 3:24pm PST

I've found two free options: First up is YouSendIt, which a platform that lets you email large files. Here's their plans page that explains the limitations of their free "lite" plan: http://www.yousendit.com/compare-plans It's not bad but it's a bit more restrictive, and the 50 MB per file limit would mean that you'd have to 1. convert things to mp3 first, and 2. downgrade the quality. I'm not so crazy about #2 there. The other option is to use Google Docs. Do you already use Docs? Last year, they added a storage feature: http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2010/01/upload-and-store-your-files-in-cloud.html I haven't tried out yet myself, but that blogpost explains the details and how you can use it to share files. Docs offers a bit less storage space than YouSendIt... BUT (and this is a huge butt (hehehe butt joke)) it has a 250 MB per file limit. That means you'd still have to convert some files to mp3 (which, actually, I wouldn't mind because that makes the file sizes smaller for me and quicker to download!), but you wouldn't have to sacrifice quality in the process. For the purposes of what we're doing, you could just export your raw audio and convert it to 192 kbps. That'll retain the integrity of the audio and lower the file sizes significantly. Thoughts?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 19, 2012 at 5:21pm PST

glad you dig the new episode! i'm looking forward to your solo cast. as for how to get me the audio now that megaupload is gone... lemme think on it for tonight and i'll get back to you tomorrow with some ideas.

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:29pm PST

in case my thoughts get addressed

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:28pm PST

and I do have shit to say about the main topic at hand, but I'll wait until it's finished, first

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:28pm PST

it's really good so far

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:28pm PST

Man...been listening to your new Ross-n-Nick

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:27pm PST

should have hosts after next monday

Kenny RiotThursday, January 19, 2012 at 2:27pm PST

I do...it's gonna be the last solo-cast I'll do for a while

Nick MarinoThursday, January 19, 2012 at 11:50am PST

yo! just checking in and seeing if you got anything planned for monday. if not, i have a solo idea i might try out. but it's best used as a fill-in, so there's no rush for me to get it out there if you have plans for the next episode.

Kenny RiotMonday, January 16, 2012 at 12:24pm PST

dope shit!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 16, 2012 at 12:19pm PST

I haven't done it yet. But I can guarantee that when I do watch the movie, there's only one way I'm gonna watch it -- with your audio commentary!

Kenny RiotMonday, January 16, 2012 at 11:47am PST

Will do. Did you watch the movie along with it? What did you think?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 16, 2012 at 7:11am PST

http://www.audioshocker.com/2012/01/16/hypercombocast-bonus-stage-3-the-king-of-fighters-the-movie It's here!!!! The audio came out kinda raw cause you were pretty hot on the mic. I did my best to level it, but I couldn't do anything about the clipping. To avoid that for next time, I suggest recording an audio sample and testing out the range of your voice (from how you'd sound if you're kinda soft to how you'd sound if you get real hype).

Kenny RiotSunday, January 15, 2012 at 11:58am PST

it's an audio commentary track

Kenny RiotSunday, January 15, 2012 at 11:58am PST

It's still a WAV file

Kenny RiotThursday, January 12, 2012 at 3:06pm PST

yeah, I'm gonna try to record it either tonight or tomorrow night after work.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 12, 2012 at 3:05pm PST

okay, cool. GOOD LUCK! sounds like mucho fun!! if you could have it to me by Sunday no later than 2 PM that would be extra dope.

Kenny RiotThursday, January 12, 2012 at 2:58pm PST

should be fun

Kenny RiotThursday, January 12, 2012 at 2:58pm PST

"The King of Fighters" is streaming on Netflix, so I'm gonna do the commentary alongside THAT

Kenny RiotThursday, January 12, 2012 at 2:40pm PST

Yeah, I'm gonna try something new...a commentary track alongside a fighting game movie.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 12, 2012 at 2:14pm PST

any hypercombocast movement?

Nick MarinoSunday, January 8, 2012 at 1:45pm PST

AWESOME! Thx :)

Kenny RiotSunday, January 8, 2012 at 4:44am PST

I'm gonna record a solo thing tonight. I'll send it over to you when I finish it.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 2, 2012 at 3:02pm PST

that's cool. it might not be a bad idea to include him in your round of messages! i mean i've talked about the scheduling with him a bunch but at this point i sorta forget where we left off.

Kenny RiotMonday, January 2, 2012 at 2:58pm PST

yeah, Turtles cast can happen whenever Ross is free

Nick MarinoMonday, January 2, 2012 at 2:57pm PST

sounds great!!

Kenny RiotMonday, January 2, 2012 at 2:52pm PST

I'm gonna be sendin' out some messages to peeps I wanna do episodes with. I'll keep you informed on what's happenin' when.

Kenny RiotThursday, December 29, 2011 at 9:10am PST

yeah, I've got ideas already, it's just everyone is busy because of the holidays and my schedule isn't fitting with anyone elses right now. Next week, some shit should be goin' down for sure, though

Nick MarinoThursday, December 29, 2011 at 7:07am PST

Here are a few show ideas (I'm just throwing stuff out here, brainstorming with no filter): - Cyberbots - the new additions to SFIV (Rufus, Viper, Gouken, Juri, etc.) - emulation - Red Earth - Puzzle Fighter - Pocket Fighter - your perfect fighting game - Characters with personality - World Heroes! - smart phone fighting games - what we've been playing lately - street fighter animes - street fighter comics - Mortal Kombat: Legacy - favorite fighters tournament (where we have a tourney of our favorite characters - fists vs. feet (our favorite fist-only and feet-only characters) - non-human fighting game characters - cut scenes in fighting games - win screens/endings in fighting games - backgrounds - our most hated fighting games

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:36pm PST

I see...

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 3:02pm PST

i was gonna do a new one until everybody told me to just talk over the old one cause they like it that way :)

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 2:03pm PST

oooooh!

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:58am PST

i wasn't gonna do a new one... was just gonna talk over justique again like i did for 2011.

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:48am PST

same thing.

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:48am PST

you know, like how you're doing a new one because you're not using iTunes, Amazon, and more?

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:38am PST

whatchu mean making 2012? tell me more!

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:52am PST

though There's always the whole "making the 2012 HyperComboCast" cue, or whatever

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:50am PST

I'm tryin' to figure somethin' out

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:23am PST

i'll check in with ross again and see if he has any free time to podcast (though i'm guessing not this week). do you have any other guests you want to bring on the show for next monday's episode? as always, you're more than welcome to do a non-nick episode. i don't mind!

Kenny RiotMonday, December 19, 2011 at 9:11am PST

that's cool

Nick MarinoMonday, December 19, 2011 at 9:10am PST

it's tough finding a good time in the next week to line up the recording with ross, so as a precaution, i snipped the end of the show where we announced that as the next episode. i didn't wanna put that up and then have the episode not happen.

Nick MarinoFriday, December 16, 2011 at 1:48pm PST

okay, cool, lemme see if any of that works for him.

Kenny RiotFriday, December 16, 2011 at 1:12pm PST

well, Tuesday, I start at 4C, Wednesday I start at 3:45C, and Thursday I start at 3C

Nick MarinoFriday, December 16, 2011 at 5:51am PST

do you have any other recording times that are good, including before you go to work?

Nick MarinoFriday, December 16, 2011 at 4:58am PST

hmmmmmmm both of those days are pretty bad for me... maybe Monday... i'll ask Ross.

Kenny RiotThursday, December 15, 2011 at 8:19pm PST

but Saturday is also Christmas Eve

Kenny RiotThursday, December 15, 2011 at 8:19pm PST

I'm off Monday and Saturday

Kenny RiotThursday, December 15, 2011 at 8:19pm PST

Nope, workin'

Nick MarinoThursday, December 15, 2011 at 4:08pm PST

Ross digs the idea of recording around the same time we record the Ross & Nick show next week. can you record next Tuesday night?

Kenny RiotThursday, December 15, 2011 at 8:39am PST

hahaha, I just got home

Nick MarinoThursday, December 15, 2011 at 7:44am PST

On our way home now so I'll be good to record

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 5:27pm PST

Cool. I have to get up way early tomorrow too, so just send me a message whenever, and I'll probably see it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 4:50pm PST

justique has a bit of a dental emergency so we have to go see the dentist tomorrow morning. chances are i'll be home long before recording time, but just in case, if i'm still at the dentist's, i'll send you a message on here and let you know.

Kenny RiotWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 12:51pm PST

I know about the interview already, but I hardly spend ANY time on 1UP.com, so I have no idea of any rip-offs.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 12:50pm PST

Pretty cool interview: http://www.1up.com/features/the-man-who-created-street-fighter AND... did 1up.com rip us off??? http://www.1up.com/features/vote-greatest-music-time I mean, probably not... but they're even doing their competition with a "Rounds" structure like us!

Kenny RiotTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 10:00pm PST

coolness

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 9:59pm PST

groovy. i'm down for that if you are.

Kenny RiotTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 9:58pm PST

12:30 Central

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 9:57pm PST

i did my best... not sure if i was really any help, but hopefully it was worth something. i'm thinking thursday. what's the earliest you can record?

Kenny RiotTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 8:15pm PST

Tomorrow, I'm free all day. Thursday and Friday...morning to afternoon. Also, thanks for helping out my friend, Vince. I remembered you talking about this kind of stuff in Sequential Underground, so I figured you'd have WAY BETTER insight than I would.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 8:07pm PST

I just did a bit of promotional outreach to some sites about the UMvC3 songs tourney, so if we're lucky, we'll get some links to the podcast over the next few days. When are you available to record the final round?

Nick MarinoFriday, December 9, 2011 at 6:43am PST

okay cool talk to you then

Kenny RiotFriday, December 9, 2011 at 3:35am PST

and yes, Round 3 is what I had in mind

Kenny RiotFriday, December 9, 2011 at 3:34am PST

Yeah, I can do that, I'm a be groggy as fuck, but oh well

Nick MarinoThursday, December 8, 2011 at 7:29am PST

i could record tomorrow... but i'm meeting up with people around noon your time. would you be down with starting our recording session at 11 AM your time? also, should we do a theme song tourney round 3 or wait for that? AND... we gotta answer that listener call-in question!!!

Kenny RiotThursday, December 8, 2011 at 12:15am PST

I have Friday off...when will you be free?

Kenny RiotThursday, December 1, 2011 at 10:52am PST

cool, lemme load this shit up

Nick MarinoThursday, December 1, 2011 at 10:50am PST

okay im ready!

Kenny RiotThursday, December 1, 2011 at 9:46am PST

SHOWERTIME

Kenny RiotThursday, December 1, 2011 at 9:46am PST

but thanks, though

Kenny RiotThursday, December 1, 2011 at 9:45am PST

I Have the game...

Nick MarinoThursday, December 1, 2011 at 9:43am PST

in case you need links to the music: http://www.capcom.co.jp/mvsc3/character_ironfist.html that's where i listen to the songs. if they don't auto play for you, click the BGM icon off, and then back on. then the music should start. okay, talk to you in an hour!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 4:01pm PST

okay cool!

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 2:20pm PST

After would be better

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 2:13pm PST

i just remembered... Justique has a doctor's thing tomorrow at 1 PM my time. i like to go with her (though i don't stay there -- i just go with her), so i could record before or after. before would be around 11:45ish my time or earlier (i could start as late as noon but we'd have to wrap at 12:30). after would be around 1:45ish my time (most likely 1:30, but i'd like to play it safe and say 1:45).

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 12:22pm PST

The time we USED to record...Thursday would be best, though.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 9:24am PST

What times tomorrow?

Kenny RiotTuesday, November 29, 2011 at 12:25pm PST

Thursday or Friday afternoon would be good

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 29, 2011 at 7:04am PST

YO! Any good times this week for you to record a UMvC3 Theme Song Round 2 podcast? My bad times are tonight, tomorrow afternoon, and Friday night. So far, everything else is open. The themes for Round 2 would be Iron Fist vs. Virgil and Doc Strange vs. Nemesis.

Kenny RiotFriday, November 25, 2011 at 9:42pm PST

oh ok, cool

Nick MarinoFriday, November 25, 2011 at 8:17pm PST

i think only the person who owns the google voice number can download it. i'm sending it to you in a sec...

Kenny RiotFriday, November 25, 2011 at 1:37pm PST

strange

Kenny RiotFriday, November 25, 2011 at 1:37pm PST

well, if you're able to download it, how come I couldn't?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 25, 2011 at 11:43am PST

Yeah I'll email to you later today! I think I can only download it

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 23, 2011 at 8:38pm PST

Oh...do you know how to get those voicemails you get from your phone line to MP3 form or something?

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 23, 2011 at 8:37pm PST

dope

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 23, 2011 at 3:18pm PST

Kenny RiotMonday, November 21, 2011 at 10:15pm PST

Kenny and Alex get together to record their long awaited sequel to Episode 13: Changing the game, in which they express concerns that the more vocal competitive fighting game scene may have a dangerous effect on the creativity behind fighting games. Controversial "is it a fighter or not" game, Super Smash Bros. Melee kicks things off as Alex's prime example of this effect taking place. Could this be the most polarizing episode yet? Will Nick be unlocked for the next episode? Listen and find out!

Kenny RiotMonday, November 21, 2011 at 10:11pm PST

"Episode 21: Embrace Creativity.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 21, 2011 at 10:11pm PST

Here's the episode info...

Kenny RiotMonday, November 21, 2011 at 10:09pm PST

Ok, it's done. When you go to edit it, start the show 21 seconds in.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 21, 2011 at 9:25pm PST

Alex and I are recording RIGHT NOW. I'll be sending you the recording when it's done.

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 19, 2011 at 5:10pm PST

non-existent this week, or later this week. I might record a quick solo when I come home from tonights events.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 19, 2011 at 4:12pm PST

Update time! What's the status of Monday's episode?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 6:47am PST

hahaha 5 AM cast!!! yeah, i'm just running around all day and on some tight deadlines. if it changes, i'll let ya know. sorry it didn't work out!

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 1:54am PST

and I don't see that happening

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 1:54am PST

only other alternative would be to RECORD NOW

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 1:54am PST

It's all good

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 1:53am PST

i'm not gonna be able to record today... too much of a time crunch! (i'm going out of town this weekend)

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 12:26pm PST

Nighttime is best for me. I just gotta check with Justique.

Kenny RiotMonday, November 14, 2011 at 10:14pm PST

Whenever is the most convenient for you. I seriously have no plans whatsoever.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 14, 2011 at 7:32pm PST

tomorrow's no good for me but weds might be good depending on the time. when were you thinking?

Kenny RiotMonday, November 14, 2011 at 1:49pm PST

Hey, I'm free tomorrow and wednesday...wanna record some more of your UMvC3 music tournament?

Kenny RiotMonday, November 14, 2011 at 10:06am PST

damn near 3 hours, I think.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 13, 2011 at 4:29pm PST

I'm Megadownloading it now. IT'S HUGE! How long is the conversation?????????

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 10:08pm PST

here's the link -> http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RV72M1B3

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 9:31pm PST

I'll send you the link when it's done.

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 9:31pm PST

Nevermind, I found the password shit for Megaupload.

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 10:37am PST

I also sent you the shownotes through Gmail

Kenny RiotSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 10:36am PST

Dang it...I don't remember the login info for Megaupload, and I can't seem to find where you gave it to me!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 10, 2011 at 7:02pm PST

okay, send me the files! i'll edit them.

Kenny RiotThursday, November 10, 2011 at 5:32pm PST

I need to add a segment to it though...where I respond to that one dudes call and Kurtis' second Email

Kenny RiotThursday, November 10, 2011 at 5:31pm PST

just needs editing

Kenny RiotThursday, November 10, 2011 at 5:31pm PST

psh, it's recorded

Nick MarinoThursday, November 10, 2011 at 5:22pm PST

how're things going so far for next week's episode?

Kenny RiotWednesday, November 9, 2011 at 6:49pm PST

Thank you!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 9, 2011 at 6:13pm PST

good comment!

Kenny RiotTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 2:48pm PST

just threw in my two cents on the UMvC3 music battle...

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 4:15am PST

hahahaha good quote!!!!!!!!!!11

Kenny RiotMonday, November 7, 2011 at 4:16pm PST

alright then. Podcasting is hard...but worth it.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 7, 2011 at 8:33am PST

okay, well no biggie. whatever you record, we'll just run it next monday.

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 9:00pm PST

I have to get up REALLY early tomorrow because of work (being sent off to inventory)

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 9:00pm PST

and Alex and I will record (for real) tomorrow

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 8:41pm PST

yeah, lookin' like Wednesday for John and I

Nick MarinoSunday, November 6, 2011 at 8:28pm PST

sounds good! keep me posted.

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:24pm PST

askin' him now

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:20pm PST

I'm thinkin' he and I can record wednesday or thursday

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:20pm PST

my other homeboy John, who is way more gung-ho, finally got a mic

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:20pm PST

but anyways, yeah, I understand

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:19pm PST

Firebrands is pretty decent too

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:19pm PST

*dunno why that doubleposted

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:19pm PST

Iron Fists Theme is the dopest

Nick MarinoSunday, November 6, 2011 at 6:18pm PST

i'm gonna go ahead and get started with my thing. i hope you understand. i don't have time to edit the show tomorrow morning, so it's gotta be put together tonight. i'm doing reviews of the new UMvC3 character themes.

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:37pm PST

what was your backup plan, though?

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:37pm PST

I was also going to do a response to the call we got, and another e-Mail we got

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:36pm PST

I told him to let me know when he was ready

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:36pm PST

he's in town, but family shit took over his visit, his lunch with his grandma for his birthday went WAY longer than he wanted it to, apparently

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:36pm PST

Alex just got ahold of me

Nick MarinoSunday, November 6, 2011 at 5:34pm PST

late like how? i have a backup plan in place, so if you can't record tonight then i'll be putting something together. the sooner i can get started, the better.

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 3:44pm PST

but I'll definitely keep the 2 PM thing in mind

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 3:43pm PST

ugh

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 3:43pm PST

might be a late upload this week

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 3:40pm PST

No prob...I'm trying to get ahold of Alex...

Nick MarinoSunday, November 6, 2011 at 3:39pm PST

You don't have to edit it. I'll take care of that. In fact, I'd prefer to edit it. But it would be a HUGE help to me from here on out if you could have the file uploaded to Megaupload by no later than 2 PM on Sunday.

Kenny RiotSunday, November 6, 2011 at 2:24pm PST

Gotta go visit Alex to record...then I edit it, then I send it to the megaupload site

Nick MarinoSunday, November 6, 2011 at 9:13am PST

hey, what's the status on tomorrow's show?

Nick MarinoSunday, October 30, 2011 at 6:54pm PDT

we got our first hyoercombocast caller! i just forwarded the voicemail to your email.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 30, 2011 at 8:28am PDT

Groovy!

Kenny RiotSaturday, October 29, 2011 at 6:23pm PDT

Hahaha, I'm ok with it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 29, 2011 at 5:28pm PDT

Hahaha no! Nobody said anything ignorant. But I'm just sayin that just in case!!! I'd rather say that now than not say anything and have to explain myself later. Anyway, what do you think? Are you down for that? And just so you know what I mean, I'm not saying these episodes HAVE to be bonus stages. They can just be regular episodes of the HyperComboCast. So if you're down for that, I'd say let's give that a shot starting next episode. All I ask is that you keep me posted on the progress, like "hey we recorded, sending you the file soon" etc. And I'd need to have the audio files no later than Sunday afternoon, so I can have time to put the shows together. This would be the first time I'm not involved in the recording on an AudioShocker show, so it's not easy for me to let go!!! It's like dropping your kid off for their first day at school, except it's a podcast and I'm not recording it. So it's really nothing like that at all. BUT IT IS!!! haha

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 8:41pm PDT

and it was nice to have Justique on, tell her I say thanks

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 8:41pm PDT

and I'm tryin' to get fire under John's ass to fuckin' get a mic so we can record our episode he wanted to do (it's actually another bonus stage, where we expand upon the Learning Episode)

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 8:40pm PDT

But in other news, Alex and I were going to record something next week

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 8:22pm PDT

Did anyone say ignorant shit before?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 28, 2011 at 1:59pm PDT

yo i was just thinking... do you have any interest in recording hypercombocasts without me? i'll still do the editing (though i won't cut stuff out! it's against my religion :) but sometimes i run out of stuff to say, plus the friday afternoon time is tough for me. and i also think i'm really distracting and derailing sometimes, and i don't wanna throw off a convo just cause i don't have anything good to say. we could do something like when you sent me the bonus stage, just it'll be the conversation unedited and i'll take it from there. if we did that, you gotta promise to not let people say ignorant shit on the show (or at least warn me if they do!) and i'd need you to write some basic show notes (nothing complicated, just a couple of sentences about what you discussed).

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 11:20am PDT

I'm ready to go

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 11:20am PDT

Kayin is getting ready as we speak

Kenny RiotFriday, October 28, 2011 at 11:16am PDT

15 minute warnin'!

Kenny RiotThursday, October 27, 2011 at 8:35pm PDT

Awesome.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 5:38pm PDT

ahhh i'm so confused........... WAIT A MINUTE... now i get it. okay, 2:30 my time. hmmmmmmm... i think that's fine for me. saturday is no good this week. and sunday i have the audioshocker show at 7 central, so tomorrow i can do.

Kenny RiotThursday, October 27, 2011 at 2:51pm PDT

Yeah, it's Friday, but the time is actually 2 hours LATER than we normally record. If you want, though...we can do Saturday at like, 7-7:30c, or Sunday 6-6:30c...

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 11:39am PDT

i'm okay with that for this week, but i'd really super dooper love it if we could try to nail down a different time moving forward... i dunno when would be good but this midday thing is super tricky for me to remember.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 11:38am PDT

isn't that the same time we always record on Friday? (or rather, are supposed to record on Friday?)

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 10:16pm PDT

Friday is still the best day, but I'd like to record slightly earlier, 1:30 Central

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 6:01pm PDT

what times on other days?

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 5:08pm PDT

Ok, I'll keep you posted, I have a meeting at work at like, 8:30pm so, I'll see what friday looks like.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 4:50pm PDT

just making sure so i can tell ross

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 4:49pm PDT

oh okay, on friday right?

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 4:09pm PDT

around 2 Central

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 4:08pm PDT

okay maybe ross will be down too -- what times are you thinkin?

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 2:00pm PDT

I gotta see what my work schedule looks like for friday, 'cause I forgot

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 1:59pm PDT

and it might be a later recording

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 1:59pm PDT

considering the next recording would post ON HALLOWEEN

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 1:59pm PDT

I was thinkin' of havin' Kayin on the show again to talk about Darkstalkers

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 1:57pm PDT

I occasionally have ideas as well!!!

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 12:50pm PDT

I got an idea!

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 26, 2011 at 12:27pm PDT

ok, that site was hilarious

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 1:05pm PDT

i love tomatoes.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:41am PDT

tomatoes are no joke

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:40am PDT

okay finally done

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:31am PDT

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:28am PDT

just gotta put away the groceries! then i'm good to go.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:28am PDT

ah

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:27am PDT

just got home from the supermarket.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:27am PDT

where the heck ARE you, then?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:27am PDT

hehe not only did i forget about the show but i left my phone at home hahaha. i suck at this.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:26am PDT

left a voicemail

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:26am PDT

yeah, I just called your ass

Nick MarinoFriday, October 21, 2011 at 11:26am PDT

hahaha no... it wasn't just you... IT WAS ME TOO! hahaha i just realized right now that i forgot about. are you still home?

Kenny RiotFriday, October 21, 2011 at 10:16am PDT

Oh snap...I screwed up this time! But, I'm up now!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 9:04am PDT

no... i mean on skype hahah

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 9:04am PDT

847-458-1278

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 9:04am PDT

Oh...I don't live there anymore, dude

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 9:02am PDT

hmmmm just tried to call you but it didn't ring.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 8:23am PDT

that'll work

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 8:23am PDT

okay i'm running down the street to kinkos. be back in 30.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:41am PDT

oh i hate when that shit happens. i used to live in a place where they started doing construction across the street at 6 AM for two months in a row... during the hottest time of the year... when i had to open my windows.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:39am PDT

yeah, got woken up 2 hours before I was supposed to be up...and now there are roofers banging away

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:36am PDT

hahaha oh no!!!

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:35am PDT

lets just say I've had a very rude awakening today

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:35am PDT

I need food first...I shouldn't even be up right now

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:34am PDT

okay, groovy. well if you're down for recording slightly earlier, i'm ready to go whenever.

Kenny RiotFriday, October 7, 2011 at 7:08am PDT

Yeah, just one show.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 7, 2011 at 4:53am PDT

Sounds great!!! FYI, my experience has been that listener feedback is always 10 times less than I expect, so we might not get a ton... but then again you have a ton of friends and you're hooked into a totally different online community than I am, so maybe we will get enough, between my two responses and your 18 responses hahaha Also, I'm not gonna lie... I'm not totally sure what you mean -- are we just recording one show today?

Kenny RiotThursday, October 6, 2011 at 5:05pm PDT

How about we ask our listeners to send feedback to that address, and when you get back, we'll answer the questions and shit...sound cool?

Kenny RiotThursday, October 6, 2011 at 5:05pm PDT

Kenny RiotThursday, October 6, 2011 at 5:05pm PDT

I set up a gmail account for HyperComboCast itself

Kenny RiotThursday, October 6, 2011 at 5:04pm PDT

Ok...so I was thinking we could use your break to our advantage. We can do a two parter feedback show!

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 5, 2011 at 5:33pm PDT

Word? Nice

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 5, 2011 at 5:23pm PDT

Speaking of the stats stuff, Google+ has been an awesome traffic boost in the past week.

Kenny RiotWednesday, October 5, 2011 at 4:24pm PDT

Maybe...lemme mull it over a bit. Also, I saw your eMail about the episode stats...definitely something to think about.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 5, 2011 at 3:27pm PDT

i can record normal time this week, but next week i'll be in NYC for NYCC, so i won't be able to record then. do you wanna record two episodes this friday? maybe a two-parter?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 30, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

i love podcasting. i can just never remember this time!

Kenny RiotFriday, September 30, 2011 at 10:16am PDT

all of it.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 30, 2011 at 10:16am PDT

you need a vacation from podcasting

Kenny RiotFriday, September 30, 2011 at 10:15am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, September 30, 2011 at 10:15am PDT

Being a fucking idiot, as usual.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 30, 2011 at 9:53am PDT

Where ya at, man?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 30, 2011 at 6:25am PDT

mmmmmmmmmhmmmmmmm okay...

Kenny RiotThursday, September 29, 2011 at 10:26pm PDT

Crossovers that aren't Marvel

Nick MarinoThursday, September 29, 2011 at 4:51pm PDT

wat R we talkin bout 2morow?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:55am PDT

works for me. talk 2 u theeeeeeeennnnnn

Kenny RiotMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

I'm a little busy right now, on some housework shit

Kenny RiotMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

in an hour

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

Mortal Kombat? I'm down. When do you wanna record.

Kenny RiotMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:50am PDT

I already done told you what the backup plan was!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:49am PDT

BOOOOOO!!! hehe if I ever don't show up for some reason, you have carte blanche to record the episode. Anyway, sorry I crashed. It was a really long weekend with my friend's wedding and all. And I didn't expect us to record since Alex hadn't gotten back to you by the afternoon. So, yeah, my bad. Whaddaya wanna do for today?

Kenny RiotMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:40am PDT

no, we didn't. We waited for you.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 4:53am PDT

Hahahaha I'M SORRY!!! I fell asleep. Did you and Alex record? I hope so!!!!!!

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 8:13pm PDT

Well, this is ironic...Where are you at, son? Alex and I are waitin'!

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 1:17pm PDT

and, if you remember it, we can discuss the Mortal Kombat Movie.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 1:16pm PDT

or we can do tonight

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 1:15pm PDT

If tonight doesn't happen, we can do tomorrow

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 1:15pm PDT

I gotta head back to work in a bit, though...

Kenny RiotSunday, September 25, 2011 at 1:15pm PDT

Alright, no word back from Alex yet, I sent him a reminder note

Kenny RiotThursday, September 22, 2011 at 10:03pm PDT

I spoke with Alex just a little while ago...he's lookin' free for Sunday, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be doin' an open to close. Let's go ahead and record some shit this mornin' anyways, and see if we can do this long awaited sequel on Sunday night.

Kenny RiotThursday, September 22, 2011 at 1:12pm PDT

he can do night recordings, but not too late

Kenny RiotThursday, September 22, 2011 at 1:12pm PDT

it's not that, he started classes, so he's not really free in the mornings anymore

Nick MarinoThursday, September 22, 2011 at 1:10pm PDT

okay sweet. frankly, seems to me like alex isn't interested, so i could care less whether he's there or not.

Kenny RiotThursday, September 22, 2011 at 12:53pm PDT

I can, I dunno if Alex can...but I definitely can.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 22, 2011 at 5:23am PDT

regular time tomorrow?

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:58pm PDT

so, we can plan this shit REAL good

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:57pm PDT

Thanks. All my important shit is here at the new place, though

Nick MarinoMonday, September 19, 2011 at 10:22am PDT

hehe okay gotcha. i'll put up a filler post and say that we're taking a week off. we can hop back on schedule next with the long-awaited pt 2.

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 10:00am PDT

'cause I hate not having a clear answer

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 10:00am PDT

then life can go back to normal

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 10:00am PDT

'cause I want today to be the last day of all this nonsense

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:59am PDT

*do

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:59am PDT

I still have a lot to fo

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:59am PDT

I just hopped online real quick to respond to shit

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:59am PDT

I don't know yet...god, I hate moving...

Nick MarinoMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:57am PDT

k, i'm still a little confused though... when can you record?

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:55am PDT

I do all my stuff on a laptop though, so Skype is an option...always will be (Still no Cell Phone)

Kenny RiotMonday, September 19, 2011 at 9:51am PDT

Shit, apparently not, since I am just now seeing this

Nick MarinoSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:23pm PDT

do you have any time when you first get up in the morning? we could bang something out real quick. and if Skype doesn't seem like an option cause you're on the go, there's always the recording feature in Google Voice which we can use to record a phone call.

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:05pm PDT

and then I have some shit to go to that night...so, we'll see what happens

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:04pm PDT

should be the last of the moving, if everything goes well

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:03pm PDT

I don't work today (monday), but I am gonna be movin' all my shelving shit and my bed

Nick MarinoSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:01pm PDT

for some reason, facebook doesn't always email me when you sent me a new message, which is strange cause it seems like it emails me for everyone else. anyway, i fell asleep sometime after 1030ish my time. i'm up now but not really in the podcasting zone. wanna record tomorrow before you go to work?

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

yeah, wanted to do the sequel

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

but I can record

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

closed up shop with the slowpoke manager today

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

shit, I just got "home" dude

Nick MarinoSunday, September 18, 2011 at 6:43pm PDT

so are we on for 9 CST?

Nick MarinoSunday, September 18, 2011 at 1:49pm PDT

hahahaha what did you wanna talk about? that pt 2 thing?

Kenny RiotSunday, September 18, 2011 at 2:56am PDT

Probably tonight after 9C...like that god awful star wars episode

Nick MarinoSunday, September 18, 2011 at 2:01am PDT

yo so when do you wanna record monday's episode?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 5, 2011 at 11:33am PDT

oh i didn't even hear that! nice. yeah, next time maybe make the music just two notches quieter. that seems to help it get more around the volume of the voices. but i think this sounds awesome. GREAT JOBBBBBB!!!! especially killer for a first podcast (you should listen to some other peep's first ones. WOOOO! rugged.)

Kenny RiotMonday, September 5, 2011 at 11:08am PDT

and the "Game Over" thing at the end is from Capcom vs. SNK 1

Kenny RiotMonday, September 5, 2011 at 11:07am PDT

I didn't do shit to the music

Nick MarinoMonday, September 5, 2011 at 11:03am PDT

sounding good. music volume seems a little high (did you raise it at all?) but otherwise sounds great. oh and the new show is up. sorry for the delay.

Kenny RiotSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 8:23pm PDT

The updated Mono version.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 2:03pm PDT

Don't remember! I don't think you said the number.

Kenny RiotSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:57pm PDT

Oh yeah...at the beginning of the podcast we just recorded, did I say it was episode 13 or 14? I'm hoping I said 14

Kenny RiotSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:54pm PDT

Alright, thanks. I fixed it. I'm in the middle of uploading the fixed version to Megaupload now...

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 8:47am PDT

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFp9cA689cE

Kenny RiotFriday, September 2, 2011 at 9:49pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoFriday, September 2, 2011 at 8:50pm PDT

i'll record a video of myself doing that and i'll put it on youtube and send you the link.

Kenny RiotFriday, September 2, 2011 at 8:40pm PDT

yeah, how do I get that to happen?

Kenny RiotFriday, September 2, 2011 at 8:40pm PDT

Aw damn, completely forgot about that

Nick MarinoFriday, September 2, 2011 at 3:14pm PDT

It sounds great from the little I listened to! Only one problem so far that the voices need to be switched onto the mono channels -- they're still on the separate sides. Do you need help making that happen?

Kenny RiotFriday, September 2, 2011 at 11:13am PDT

HyperComboCast Bonus Stage 1

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:53pm PDT

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:52pm PDT

For all I know, he is wearing it half of the time.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:43pm PDT

You know whats funny? I remember checkin' out y'alls info page, and every time I listen to the main Audioshocker podcast, I see Nea, in my head, wearing that damn Luchadore mask whenever he speaks.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:27pm PDT

we had discussed that too. we've done a show with five people before, but i don't think we've ever made it to six. Skype craps out after you hit a certain number. maybe it's better nowadays, though (last time we tried was probably a year or so ago).

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:24pm PDT

Hahaha, do a megacast with everyone involved with AudioShocker (CLUSTERFUCK!)

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:22pm PDT

dunno yet. any ideas? there's a chance i might get accepted as a podcaster at the New York Comic Con, and if that happens, i'll be in manhattan the weekend before 200. if neal's still there, then we'll just record in person, which we've done for a few other milestone episodes.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:20pm PDT

cool. Oh, yeah, what're you gonna do for AudioShocker 200?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:17pm PDT

oh don't even worry about it. that happens all the time. trying to edit something like that'll drive you crazy! i think the biggest thing is making sure that michelle and i aren't way way louder or quieter than you. other, you should be good. i'm gonna email you the show themes right now so you can edit them in.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:15pm PDT

nah, the roboting is only like, a word every now and again.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 1:13pm PDT

hahaha yeah i figured i was wrong about that. I'VE NEVER SEEN HER AT ALL THEN! but i wouldn't worry about it too much. you can just add something into the show notes about us being wrong. and unless you get so quiet you're incomprehensible, i wouldn't worry about that either. as for michelle roboting, yeah that sorta stuff sucks. if it's less than 15 seconds, i think it's okay not to cut it. but if it goes on for 30 secs or more, that could be kinda long.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:45pm PDT

when I was talking about "The Runaways" comics, the character I was talking about was actually called "Gertrude", and I kept calling her "Gretchen". Also, you mentioned only seeing Mai in King of Fighters XII, but...she isn't in that one.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:44pm PDT

you and I screwed up a couple things though

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:44pm PDT

I took all the show notes, so tonight or tomorrow, I need to do the technical editing

Kenny RiotThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:43pm PDT

I gave the bonus stage a listen, this morning. The sound was overall already pretty good, but there's a part where I go lower than usual, and some parts where Michelle glitches up that I have to cut a bit

Kenny RiotSunday, August 21, 2011 at 7:34pm PDT

just got home (WAY LATER than usual)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 7:32pm PDT

yoooooo finished the audioshocker podcast. ready to go when you are.

Kenny RiotSunday, August 21, 2011 at 1:18pm PDT

We can work that.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 5:27am PDT

I'm recording the regular AS show tonight at 8 your time, so after 9 tonight would be fine with me. But I also might be guesting on another show that records sometime around 10ish your time, I think. But basically, I'm saying I'm good with recording tonight if you are.

Kenny RiotSunday, August 21, 2011 at 12:50am PDT

Ok, so I work all day today, so I'd be home some time after 9 PM. Tomorrow, I work at 1, so if you think Monday during the day would work better than Sunday night, let me know (all times Central)

Kenny RiotSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 5:50am PDT

dunno yet, gotta see the schedule (it wasn't up yesterday)

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 5:37am PDT

That's straight. What time is best for you?

Kenny RiotSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 12:15am PDT

Sunday night, then.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 19, 2011 at 6:00pm PDT

yeah I dropped the ball. HARD. my bad. anyway, I'm home for the rest of the night. i have some free time tomorrow before 1 PM EST, and then again from 5-6 PM. and on sunday, i'm free before noon EST, and then i could probably record some time after 5 PM EST.

Kenny RiotFriday, August 19, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

I have the day off

Kenny RiotFriday, August 19, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

it's not too late

Nick MarinoFriday, August 19, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

FUCCCCCCCCCCCCCKK!!!! I totally forgot. The recording yesterday thing really threw me off. I'm sorry I always forget. I'm just hardwired to record podcasts in the evening and it's still really tough for me to remember daytime recording. Plus, I had to restart the computer and I wasn't online. If I'm not on Skype by 12:40 it's more than okay to text me and remind me. Anyway, I'M SORRRY! It's prolly too late now, right?

Kenny RiotFriday, August 19, 2011 at 9:56am PDT

....where are you at?

Kenny RiotFriday, August 19, 2011 at 9:42am PDT

I'm ready when you are!

Kenny RiotThursday, August 18, 2011 at 11:12am PDT

ok

Nick MarinoThursday, August 18, 2011 at 10:54am PDT

okay, she got skype and it's working so so right now, but she was on the bus. i'll try it again when she gets where she's going to see how it'll work.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 18, 2011 at 10:34am PDT

yeah she has hard time waiting for stuff. i was actually surprised she said yes in the first place. but anyway, she had an idea... she can get skype for her phone and that way she'd just podcast with us like that... she's downloading it now, and we're gonna test it soon. i'll let you know if it works.

Kenny RiotThursday, August 18, 2011 at 10:27am PDT

2 PM My time...but, really? She dipped? Damn.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 18, 2011 at 10:22am PDT

hey man Justique got really anxious and couldn't wait anymore and had to go out. i did my best to try and get her to wait, but when she gets anxious like that there is no stopping that woman :) so yeah sorry about that. i'm still down, though! i can pretend to be her. my voice isn't really right, but maybe it'll trick some people. i could get her to do a call in during the show and put her on speaker phone.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 18, 2011 at 7:53am PDT

2 PM my time???

Kenny RiotSaturday, August 13, 2011 at 12:24pm PDT

hmmm...I'll let you know what I think when I've read it. I'm all tryin' to get shit done before I have to go back to work.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 13, 2011 at 12:23pm PDT

i mean, to me it just seems like this guy hasn't played that many fighting games, but i could be wrong and he could really be onto something...

Kenny RiotSaturday, August 13, 2011 at 12:09pm PDT

I'll have to check this out

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 13, 2011 at 10:38am PDT

this guy started following me on Tumblr: http://tkim23.tumblr.com/post/8791499017/introduction-while-fighters-are-indeed-thriving

Kenny RiotFriday, August 12, 2011 at 9:35am PDT

yeah, I'm comin'...just need to finish some shit real quick.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 12, 2011 at 9:34am PDT

podcast!

Kenny RiotThursday, August 11, 2011 at 9:02am PDT

whatever makes the job easy for you

Nick MarinoThursday, August 11, 2011 at 6:49am PDT

ugh. so i finally finished putting those digital comics together. (late, i know) and the total file size is ridiculously large (like 275 mb). do you just want me to zip up the ones that are relevant to the games? cause not all of them have been put into the games.

Kenny RiotMonday, August 8, 2011 at 3:23pm PDT

Yes.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 8, 2011 at 2:33pm PDT

Okay, well right now I asked her again and she says anytime is fine. We're talking the 18th, right?

Kenny RiotMonday, August 8, 2011 at 2:26pm PDT

Later than we normally record (Like...2 or 3), but I need to make sure I don't work at all on thursday (Originally, it was set in stone, but then stupid shit at work that I have nothing to do with...caused all kinds of chaos with scheduling. We're good this week, and can still record at our normal time, but I'll keep you posted on next week.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 8, 2011 at 2:22pm PDT

She's down depending on the time. When are you thinking?

Kenny RiotMonday, August 8, 2011 at 10:01am PDT

Did you get a chance to talk to Justique about next thursday?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 11:38pm PDT

tuesday and sunday nights tend to be my worst. monday's are kinda bad for the rest of this month. otherwise, it just depends on the day. i normally need to plan stuff a week in advance.

Kenny RiotWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 8:41pm PDT

Oh yeah...what days/nights were your bad ones? I wanna get ready to properly coordinate the first bonus stage recording.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 29, 2011 at 10:17am PDT

http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/sf-theme.zip

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 23, 2011 at 4:41am PDT

yeah it's pretty bad but damn i loved it back when it came out!!!

Kenny RiotFriday, July 22, 2011 at 8:17pm PDT

Unfortunately, I have. That game is fucking terrible.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 22, 2011 at 4:39pm PDT

you ever play this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_Masters_of_Ter%C3%A4s_K%C3%A4si

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 8:48am PDT

yes i'm def down for 11 your time. see you on there.

Kenny RiotTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 8:27am PDT

That'll work

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 7:59am PDT

okay, well, i gotta finish up super haters at the moment, and then i'm gonna call an old friend (a friend from when i lived in the chicago area, natch), and then LET'S TEST IT. i'll hit you up on here when i have a more specific time in mind. i'm thinking 11ish your time.

Kenny RiotTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 7:45am PDT

Cool...the actual episode wouldn't be recorded until next week anyways, so thats fine. I should be here most of the day, so I guess just hit me up when you're around.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 5:34am PDT

in terms of recording w/ justique, today = bad (cause we just got back into town), and tomorrow = might be okay (but it would have to be earlier in the day... like 11 EST, which i know might be a little too early for you). as for us just talking on skype and testing out your settings with call graph and audacity, i'm good anytime today between 11:30-6:30 EST

Kenny RiotMonday, July 18, 2011 at 1:03pm PDT

Cool...if it helps, I have tomorrow and wednesday off.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 18, 2011 at 4:18am PDT

hmmmmmmmmm i'll make up a list of some good times for talking....

Kenny RiotSaturday, July 16, 2011 at 2:39pm PDT

I actually already have Audacity...so it's just a matter of getting Call Graph. We can definitely talk over Skype about it. Let me know when you want to do that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 16, 2011 at 8:11am PDT

an hour i don't mind doing... but i think you should give it a shot and see if you like it! as someone who has a passion for editing audio, i'm always trying to share it with other people, so i'd be glad to pass along what i know. i use Call Graph for recording from Skype and Audacity for editing. both freeware, both decent if you have your settings right (and getting those settings right is so clutch!!). once you get the programs, we should have a convo about the settings (i'd rather do it over skype than type it out if it's okay with you). also, for a future HCC, i wanna talk about the Street Figther movie soundtrack. you ever listen to it? i think it's one of the most amazing hip hop soundtracks ever http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msL--MXueJc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zNX69qyigA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sok2sPVFReI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhQgUhxMsyo if you don't have it, i have it on disc so i can rip the whole thing for you.

Kenny RiotFriday, July 15, 2011 at 1:12pm PDT

Nah, it's good that you said as much as you did. I had wanted to do the work for the Champion Edition podcasts myself (since they weren't intended to have a set schedule like the regular HCC does), 'cause I know you have ours, plus the other ones you record, so that's a lot on your plate! I was actually gonna ask you what software you used so that I could try to learn it and whatnot. The length...I was thinking somewhere in the realm of an hour for this particular topic. Am I in over my head?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 15, 2011 at 11:17am PDT

how long are you imagining? i'm not against the idea, but it's just that i rarely have a single topic i feel like i could talk about for more than 45 mins. we used to do 1.5 hour long podcasts, and i know that's the norm for a lot of sites, but we've found that our listeners tend to enjoy shorter format stuff. plus the shorter format makes us a little unique (at least compared to other comics podcasts), AND (this is a big part) it's a HUGE strain off my shoulders as the recorder and editor. you gotta understand -- editing long runs of audio takes a lot of time. processing obviously takes longer, more program errors crop up, and there's more to fix if something goes wrong (which happens more often than you'd think, even with out shorter shows... but re-editing 30 mins is a lot different than 90). a normal audioshocker show running 35 mins takes me about 20-30 mins to edit and convert. then there's about 5-15 minutes for uploading the show, and another 10-15 for putting up the blog post. 90 mins of audio changes the editing time to anywhere from 40-50 mins worth of work (maybe more), not to mention an increase in the upload time. for example, the superhero throwdown we did recently, i recorded and edited that. we recorded for about two hours (a little more, really). then the editing took me a while because there were some issues with the audio. i'd say i spent over an hour working on it to get it right. that doesn't include converting it, uploading it, and posting. now that's an extreme example, but it's one of the reasons i prefer shorter shows. if you're interested in finding someone else to record and edit the conversations, for these longer shows, i'd be willing to maybe try out some longer stuff... but the finished audio quality would also have to be up to my standards, ya know? anyway, that's probably way more than i needed to say, but i think it's worth saying before we go down the road of longer shows.

Kenny RiotThursday, July 14, 2011 at 9:22am PDT

Well, so far the title is something like, "HyperComboCast: Champion Edition"...in which there will either be topics that I feel 30 minutes aren't enough for, or extentions of podcasts you and I have done, but with different people to get more viewpoints. The first one I wanna do is "The representation of Women in Fighting Games", and I was wondering if you and Justique would want to come in on that. I have my homegirl, Michelle in on the idea already.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 14, 2011 at 4:30am PDT

tell me moooooooooore....

Kenny RiotThursday, July 14, 2011 at 1:55am PDT

Ok...so, I've had this idea for a little while now to do a kind of "Extended version" of HyperComboCast...and I was planning on doin' the first episode of that after we record the "importance of character design" episode. I'm about to go to sleep, so if you wanna know more, go ahead and ask. I do want to include you on this as well.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 13, 2011 at 9:57am PDT

btw i hate this new facebook chat. i never use it, and i log off everytime time but it always says i'm on. and it doesn;t email me notifications, so that's why i didn't get your message

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 13, 2011 at 9:56am PDT

i forgot again. i'm sorry. i'm such a dick.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 13, 2011 at 9:56am PDT

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh fudgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Kenny RiotWednesday, July 13, 2011 at 9:35am PDT

ready when you are, dude...and the special guest is here

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 8:18am PDT

hahaha oh wait i can DEFINITELY talk about how annoying it is :) yeah, normal time is fine with me. TALK TO YOU THEN!!! oh, and don;t forget to comment on the blog post for the podcast! i find that when the hosts comment, that gets the conversation going better.

Kenny RiotMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:57am PDT

Do you think we'd be able to record at our normal time?

Kenny RiotMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:57am PDT

MIIIIIIIIIGHT have a special guest for that one as well

Kenny RiotMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:57am PDT

shit like Street Fighter and it's various upgrades, Guilty Gear did it as well...and how annoying it can be for players to keep up with it all.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:55am PDT

what time? as for topic, i mean i don't think i have much to say about that. any particular ones you're planning to talk about?

Kenny RiotMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:48am PDT

yeah, I have Wednesday off, so we can record then. Also...The episode is going to be about keeping up with upgrades to fighting games.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 5:07am PDT

hey if everything pans out, i'm not gonna be home this friday-monday (and might have jury duty on thursday)... are there any other times you can record the episode? i guess wednesday is my best day this week.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 8, 2011 at 9:38am PDT

lemme hit this call button

Nick MarinoFriday, July 8, 2011 at 9:38am PDT

oh weird you're not showing up

Nick MarinoFriday, July 8, 2011 at 9:37am PDT

yooooooooooooo

Kenny RiotFriday, July 8, 2011 at 9:37am PDT

ready when you are, and our special guest is here too

Kenny RiotFriday, July 8, 2011 at 9:37am PDT

yo

Nick MarinoFriday, July 8, 2011 at 4:01am PDT

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk4osFUyJys

Nick MarinoFriday, July 8, 2011 at 4:01am PDT

and number two

Nick MarinoThursday, July 7, 2011 at 12:26pm PDT

video 1 for tomorrow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK5lkAt6X38 another one coming later (probably overnight cause it's big)

Nick MarinoFriday, July 1, 2011 at 7:04am PDT

screen caps for today: http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/doa.jpg http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/doa-3.jpg http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/doa-1.jpg http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/doa-2.jpg

Nick MarinoThursday, June 30, 2011 at 9:51pm PDT

yeah me too... i decided to try and rent it on itunes. an experiment sorta thing. horrible idea.

Kenny RiotThursday, June 30, 2011 at 2:42pm PDT

oughtta be interesting

Kenny RiotThursday, June 30, 2011 at 2:42pm PDT

Gotta watch that DoA tonight

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 9:33am PDT

okay good i'm down as wellllllllllllll

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 9:30am PDT

yes and yes.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:03am PDT

Same time this week? AND... are you still cool with going weekly?

Kenny RiotSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:27pm PDT

yeah...that's what Final Burn Alpha uses

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:26pm PDT

Sweet. Even MAME roms?

Kenny RiotSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:22pm PDT

Cool. For GGPO, you shouldn't really need to get different roms to use it. Whatever you're using for Kawaks, or whatever other emulator you're using, will work fine.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:16pm PDT

naw haven't done it. i'll let you now when i do. i got the double dragon games, though.

Kenny RiotSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:10pm PDT

Oh, did you ever download GGPO?

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:02pm PDT

sounds good to me

Kenny RiotSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:01pm PDT

That works out fine. Just lettin' you know I'm down to do weekly.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 3:00pm PDT

If it's okay with you. I wanna wait until #5 to start going weekly, that way we can announce the weekly-ness on #4 (for the people who get the podcast from iTunes and other places that don't have show notes).

Kenny RiotSaturday, June 11, 2011 at 2:51pm PDT

Oh yeah...if you wanna go weekly now, we can do that shit.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 10, 2011 at 10:19am PDT

yeah no problem. i'll be on in five. SORRY AGAIN!

Kenny RiotFriday, June 10, 2011 at 10:19am PDT

I can record now...we gotta get done before 1:30 my time

Nick MarinoFriday, June 10, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

ahhhh no fuck i totally got my times mixed!!! for some reason i was thinking it was 1:30... but when i saw your message, just now, i realized it was 12:30. SORRY!!! generally, if i'm anymore than 5 mins late, it means i'm being stupid and you can email me or message me on here. or txt me 4847987753. SORRY! uhhhhh so whaddaya you wanna do? what's your schedule?

Kenny RiotFriday, June 10, 2011 at 9:50am PDT

Got held up?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 9, 2011 at 9:09pm PDT

yeah i'm down

Kenny RiotThursday, June 9, 2011 at 11:25am PDT

usual time tomorrow.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 9, 2011 at 11:09am PDT

when you wanna record?

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 10:45am PDT

It's a hacked version of FinalBurnAlpha, really...but it has ridiculously good netcode. Some of the downloadable fighting games for PS3 and XBOX360 have the GGPO netcode in them...one of the new Dragon Ball Z games that're comin' out is going to have that netcode as well.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 10:23am PDT

i'm down for that! i'm sure you'll school me, but i could use some of that :) this GGPO... i need to research it a bit....

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 10:11am PDT

it's not a matter of processing, it's a matter of netcode. It doesn't use what SSF4 uses, nor does it use the GGPO netcode, which is a shame. Speaking of which, we should play Marvel Super Heroes on GGPO at some point.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:53am PDT

oh yeah the netplay for mvc3 bloooooows! i guess it's just a really processor heavy game? i dunno, seems a little silly to me that they'd release it with such limit online options and errors. i'm always getting booted back to the main menu when i can't connect to a match. oh well.

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:37am PDT

the update is 15 bucks... SSF4's netplay is way better than MVC3's though...which is annoying, 'cause I wanna play MVC3 more.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:35am PDT

Yeah I heard Yun was kinda ridiculous. Hmmmm I don't really play SFIV online anymore now that MvC3 is out, so I'm not interested much for that. I dunno, I guess it depends how much the PSN wants to charge me...

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:21am PDT

Yeah, it's kinda necessary if you want to continue playing online with people. The one actual NEW character (Oni) is fun. Evil Ryu is meh...Yun and Yang are stupidly strong.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 6:50am PDT

Thoughts? Worth getting even if I'm not a hardcore SFIV player?

Kenny RiotWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 6:49am PDT

Yes I did.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 6:38am PDT

you get the Arcade Edition DLC yet?

Kenny RiotTuesday, June 7, 2011 at 6:06am PDT

Yeah, I saw it already.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 7, 2011 at 5:33am PDT

i know you prolly already saw this but just in case http://www.viddler.com/explore/Joystiq/videos/5907/

Kenny RiotTuesday, May 24, 2011 at 9:08am PDT

Then Friday it is...

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2011 at 5:16am PDT

the only reason i like friday the most is because it's closest to the airdate of the show, and i find that podcasts are best when they're recorded closer to the date they're gonna get posted. conversation tends to feel fresher, and references / current topics don't lose their edge.

Kenny RiotMonday, May 23, 2011 at 8:58pm PDT

HAHAHA! Damn, son. I can do the same time any day this week, but if you're set on Friday, then we can do Friday.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 4:51pm PDT

I could do same time on Friday, if you're down. BTW, I just lost the entire day planning Marvel Super Heroes. I was like "I'll just play for a half-hour and take some screen caps..." and then SEVEN HOURS later I was like "where the fuck did the day go?"

Kenny RiotMonday, May 23, 2011 at 10:02am PDT

When did you want to record?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 4:22am PDT

you're added http://www.audioshocker.com/contributors also, i kinda forget what we said about recording the next episode. did we say same time on friday? WAIT... i think we were saying that tentatively until you got your work schedule for this week.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 3:47am PDT

AWESOME! thx. i'm gonna put that up now.

Kenny RiotMonday, May 23, 2011 at 1:50am PDT

In response to your e-Mail about the bio...here's mine. Kenny / Riot.EXE is this long time listener or something, that was born in New York, grew up in Texas, and is currently being a grown up in Illinois. He shares music that he and his friends think is cool on his blog site, "Tracks on the Daily" (Link to the site there: tracksonthedaily.blogspot.com) and is also the co-host of the "HyperComboCast".

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 3:00pm PDT

i didn't listen to this yet but the timing is funny: http://iplaywinner.com/news/2011/5/17/cant-patch-this-podcast-episode-1.html just came out on tuesday. i guess it's about the competitive scene.

Kenny RiotWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 10:17am PDT

That's great to hear! I posted it up on a few sites, and some other friends of mine are spreading the word about it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 10:16am PDT

hey just wanted to let you know that we're getting a bunch of hits on the new podcast. much more than usual!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 14, 2011 at 4:44am PDT

Understood. I'm not going anywhere so just gimme a shout whenever you think you're ready to dive in.

Kenny RiotWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 9:50pm PDT

Cool...won't be able to start for a little while though...gotta get some shit straightened out on my end. Especially now...tonight ended on a really bad note.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 3:01pm PDT

Yeah I'm down for all of that. FYI, I've gotten to the point with podcasting where I'm doing it so goddamn often that don't like to plan ahead much for shows. Like, I'll pick a loose topic for an episode, but I've tried doing a segments type of approach and I hate it. Also, two other things you should know -- I'm kind of a pain in the ass about audio quality, and I like to keep the episodes as close to 30 mins as possible. Haha I just wanna put all my podcasting quirks and pet peeves out up front because I've had shows that failed cause I didn't say anything when I should have. Anyway, if you wanna try out a test recording, I'm nickmarino82 on Skype. If this does actually come together, ideally I'd wanna run it every other Monday on opposite weeks from the Sequential Underground podcast.

Kenny RiotWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 2:19pm PDT

...Ok, so sure...it could be about fighting games, but in keeping with the spirit of your other Audio Shocker Podcasts, maybe it should also cover other forms of media based on fighting games and vice versa. Maybe also covering the experience of playing them and their pros and cons or somethin'. What do you think? (I know this is shorter than I want it to be, but I'm on a lunch break and I wanted to get somethin' out there before I forget to mention anything at all.)

hey Cait - are you coming back for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

624760147@facebook.comWednesday, December 19, 2007 at 6:23pm PST

Hey Nick, Thanks for everything! I'll miss you guys loads. I mean it. Loads. :D

4801997@facebook.comThursday, December 6, 2007 at 12:30pm PST

yeah i was thinking we should do that too. maybe next tuesday or this weekend (whatever works out for you). my only bad times are nights on sunday, monday, wednesday, and thursday (that's actually a lot of bad times, isn't it?). what's your favorite place in the burgh so far?

624760147@facebook.comThursday, December 6, 2007 at 6:11am PST

Fine! I went out by myself quite a bit this week. Any plans for next week? I was thinking of another double date. You guys pick the place.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 5, 2007 at 5:51pm PST

hey, how's pittsburgh treating you, stranger?

624760147@facebook.comTuesday, November 20, 2007 at 10:14pm PST

Hey Nick! I would be leaving for Pittsburgh in a few hours. I nearly didn't make it though, because at the last moment, the boss decided that my leave period was too long (despite it being the school holidays, WTF? They want me to come back and basically sit in the staffroom with my thumbs up my ass doing nothing, rather than spending it fruitfully, travelling). So I had to lie to him and say I am coming back on the 19th instead of the 22nd. Can't wait to see you guys. Soon soon!

624760147@facebook.comFriday, November 9, 2007 at 7:07am PST

haha okay I will.. I would be wearing Halima's brother's stuff. He was in Germany for a while and I am borrowing his winterwear. His stuff smells of stale tobacco.. but well beggars can't be choosers

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 9, 2007 at 7:02am PST

freezing, not greezing

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 9, 2007 at 7:02am PST

yeah it's fucking greezing in pgh!!!!!!! bring many many coats!

624760147@facebook.comThursday, November 8, 2007 at 8:34am PST

Singapore's okay. Hot and wet as always. At least in Pittsburgh you guys see different weather. Down here it's hot, or hot and wet. See you guys in a couple weeks.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 8, 2007 at 3:53am PST

i'm looking forward to your visit. don't apologize for last time - you were busy getting it on, just like you should be. justique is doing alright. she's hoping to be in school next semester. she absolutely loved the flowers you sent. thanks for those. how's singapore?

624760147@facebook.comWednesday, November 7, 2007 at 12:56am PST

Hey Nick! LONG time since I heard from ya. Damn you're one busy little beaver. Shit Al fucking Qaeda terrorists are less motivated than you (But then again who wants to be remembered as a guy who got blown to bits with a bomb stuck up his ass?). Anyway, kidding aside, how's things? I will be there in 16 days and Halima has promised this time round to plan the trip better so we can hang out together. I have to apologise for the previous time I Was there. It was too short and too rushed. How's Justique? Heard she's planning on starting school next term. That's great. If there is anything you guys need or want from Singapore don't hesitate to ask. We do cheap electronics, pirated software (from nearby Malaysia and Thailand), and awesome food from all over Asia.

624760147@facebook.comSaturday, August 4, 2007 at 1:00am PDT

Sent the itinerary to Justique.

624760147@facebook.comThursday, August 2, 2007 at 7:45pm PDT

Alright, my visa got approved and htey gave me a multiple entry visa so at least I don't have to go to that fucking Embassy in a year. I am only coming over for a week this time round. In December I'll come there for a month.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, August 2, 2007 at 7:32am PDT

thats ridiculous! you have to interview? hah. what a joke. just be like "i love america. i want to experience their joy and wonder first hand. i love steak. and gasoline. and tackle football." they'll totally give you the visa right away.

624760147@facebook.comTuesday, July 31, 2007 at 2:29am PDT

Ah sounds like bombay with fewer and bigger cars... Anyway on Friday is my interview (yes they have an interview for a fucking tourist visa) at the US Embassy. I hope there are no questions about the suspicious looking bulge in my pants or something. Fucking bureaucracy.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, July 30, 2007 at 4:29am PDT

expect a lot of weird people, big cars, and dirty city.

624760147@facebook.comThursday, July 26, 2007 at 9:42pm PDT

I am not.. I applied but I didn't meet the beard and rare-showers requirement. And I didn't quite like the idea of goatfucking as a pastime. Yep, end August. The very end, 31st actually. We can turn your apartment into a bar if it's possible.. I mean I have never set foot in the continental United States before so I have no idea what to expect in a city like Pittsburgh. I leave the planning of whatever to you guys.

that is ridiculous!!! but wait... you're NOT Al Qaeda??? hahaha wo hahaha okay that was a joke (... or was it?). good luck. i know it was a few days ago but i hope you got the thing alright. i never messed with the chest tattoo. my arm one was enough until i dedicided want else i wanted. and now i'm just to lazy to walk one block down the street to get the other one. when you coming here? end of august right? you have to let me know what you want to do when you're here and i can plan some stuff out for the four of us to do. no bars though cause justique still has one more year to go!!! maybe we'll sneak her in somewhere or we'll just turn my apt into a bar.

Hi Nick, Sorry man I have been busy as a dyke in a hardware store (TM George Carlin) and couldn't wish you properly. Hope you had a great 25th. I am still waiting for an appointment with my tattoo artist to have the Australian southern cross tattooed on my chest. Gosh I hate getting chest tattoos. They hurt like blazes. But I really want to get htis one done to commemorate our engagement. I am off to apply for a US tourist visa. Wish me luck. I hate these things. They seem to think every Indian man is a fucking Al Qaeda wannabe or something. Halima and I had a bad time at Australian customs too.. They suspected us for possessing drugs and spent like two hours going through my and her wallets, bags and crap. I was used to it because Ihave to endure this shit every foreign country I go to (thanks to my Indian passport), but for Halima it was pretty humiliating an experience.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 15, 2007 at 6:22pm PDT

okay i will tell justique she should be home!!! i totally forgot to email halima from work today but i did get the check on monday and already put it in the bank and paid $500 to the utility company. i'll email halima tomorrow because justique has new phone numbers for her.

624760147@facebook.comTuesday, May 15, 2007 at 4:34pm PDT

Hey Nick, did you get the envelope? The postage chap said one to two weeks but sometimes these things can be notoriously inefficient. Anyway Justique's birthday present should arrive at her doorstep at about noonish (1pm to about 4pm) I think so it would be great if there is someone there to pick it up. Halima sends her lots of hugs, and I am planning her birthday celebration here in Singapore.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 6, 2007 at 2:10pm PDT

sounds nice. was gonna get another yesterday but hooked up my skateboard with the money instead. justique will love the gift - she's all about flowers and teddy bears.

624760147@facebook.comSaturday, May 5, 2007 at 10:20am PDT

Well just between us it's a flower bouquet in a BIG yellow smiley cup, box of chocolates and a teddy bear. I came up with the flowers and cup idea, Halima's brain was the idea behind the chocolate and teddy bear. Don't tell Justique though! ;) Anyway I eschewed the foreams in favour of a chest tattoo.. It's a borneo rose that was inspired by Halima (she loves roses).

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 4, 2007 at 8:30pm PDT

yeah justique can't wait to see her again. im sure she'll love whatever she gets. it will really mean a lot to her.

624760147@facebook.comThursday, May 3, 2007 at 4:55pm PDT

Not too bad actually, considering I am off to get my forearms tattooed. (Fucking things are addictive, aren't they? Probably the only teacher in Singapore with this much ink on him) We spent a good part of yesterday deciding what to get for Justique for her birthday, and I hope she likes what we eventually settled on. Send her our regards and tell her Halima misses her to bits. (I don't know how that is even possible. I am just relaying messages! :P)

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 3, 2007 at 4:03pm PDT

thanks Bala. how's everything going?

624760147@facebook.comWednesday, May 2, 2007 at 6:26pm PDT

Hey Nick, Halima has re-mailed the thing by regular post. You should get it in a week or so.

just send me something of at least 300 dpi at full dimensions (that's for print, because it's most likely going to end up in an ashcan... for example, PB v1 just finished printing and it looks awesome). i'll take jpg, png, tiff, psd, etc. also, when you email me the art, make sure to give me any text you'd like me to run with the piece when i post it on the blog. AND... just so you know, new PB submissions are posted every Sunday. "draw your favorite character(s) from comic book/movie/tv/video games. anything goes, but nothing hateful/ignorant/mean spirited and no sex fan art. and don't spend too long! project basement is all about the raw energy of a doodle or a sketch. scan in your drawing at no less than 300 dpi and email it to nickmarino @ gmail.com p.s. for v2, i'm adding this rule: now i also want to see you sketch your least favorite characters! everything from before applies, except that i want to know why this character is on your @#$%-list when you send me the art!"

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 2:20pm PDT

Wazzup! Thx for the art offer. I'm definitely down. What sort of stuff are you looking for? BTW, dunno if you know this, but it looks like your bullghia@hotmail.com account was hacked within the past couple of days.

Ahhhhh I forgot to reply! Anyway, yeah we gotta get crackin on Better than the Best Places to Work. btw, i heard you got into biz school. congrats.

Andrew PetersMonday, April 25, 2011 at 11:30am PDT

http://www.jvhmediagroup.com/ So, this company that we're doing a promo with is the exact type of aspiring "Best of" conglomerate that I was always envisioning Better Places to Work being. If nothing else, let our example be encouragement that advertisers do actually shell out tons of money to buy into these types of schemes. Plus, Better Places ______ is a way better concept than a core of publications anchored on bikes, golf courses, and snow.

Loran John SkinkisWednesday, March 2, 2011 at 4:00pm PST

Sorry Nick, I got tied up and didn't get a chance to e-mail you. I'm still definitely interested. Give me a couple more days and I'll have inks ready. I've been going through some physical rehab for a hip injury I got a few years ago when I was in the military and been really tied up at work. Look for my e-mail very soon. Thanks! -Loran.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 2, 2011 at 6:04am PST

Hey Loran, Didn't hear back from you on my most recent message here or the email I sent you last week, so I'm wondering if you're still interested. If you're not, certainly no hard feelings! I just want to know if we should be looking for another inker, or if you'd like to take a crack at it before we make the offer to some other artists. Thx.

Nick MarinoSunday, February 20, 2011 at 3:11pm PST

Since Shawn's decision to pencil the book is relatively new, we don't have any finished pages yet. But if you're game, I think a great way to test the collaboration would be by inking a couple of Shawn's character sketches. The raw/refined balance in the sketches is very close to his typical interior page quality. If that sounds okay to you, I'll go ahead and email you the sketches he's done so far.

Loran John SkinkisSunday, February 20, 2011 at 2:57pm PST

Hey Nick! I'd love to give it a shot. If you'd like send over a scan of a pencil page or two and I'll try to have it done by new comics day this Wednesday. My e-mail is ljs5123@gmail.com. I typically print out pencil pages in blue line and ink them with brush and ink. I also have a Bamboo tablet that I can give a shot with Photoshop. Let me know if that works or if you guys just want to meet sometime. Thanks for thinking of me for this project. Always looking for some different comic stuff to work on. -Loran.

Nick MarinoSunday, February 20, 2011 at 2:52pm PST

create a unique style. whooops typo!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 20, 2011 at 2:50pm PST

Hi Loran - Shawn and I have a comic we've been developing for about year now called Pepper Jones, Adventure Scientist. I just did a brief spotlight on some of Shawn's character sketches today on my blog: http://www.audioshocker.com/2011/02/20/project-basement-spotlight-pepper-jones The reason I'm messaging you about it is because Shawn's looking for an artistic collaborator on the comic. Originally, we were looking for an artists to pencil it, but Shawn's recently decided he'd like to do the pencils. Now we're hoping to find someone interested in inking the book. Dan Greenwald suggested you, and Shawn and I both thought it was a great suggestion. This book is a bit unique for a couple of reasons. 1. It's going to be an original graphic novel, as opposed to individual issues (well, that depends a bit on the next part which is) 2. we're planning to find a publisher interested in picking it up. So right now we're focused on making sure we have the right creative team and then we're moving forward with the strongest pitch we can put together -- plot treatment, script samples, a few finished interior pages, and a cover mock-up. We're gonna shop it to Oni, SLG, IDW, etc. I say all that to let you know the scope of the project and that it's not intended to be released as a self-published series (we'll do that if we really have to, but we're probably not moving forward with it unless the pitch hooks a publisher). Other stuff worth noting is that it's scheduled to be about 120 pages, and the pages will have a bit more of a manga flow, with 2-3 large panels per page, drawn for a digest-sized final product. I guess the only other thing worth mentioning right now is that Shawn works in loose pencils, sort of halfway between pencils and breakdowns, so we're looking for an artist with a strong style that can mesh with Shawn's style and create a unique -- we don't just want an embellisher, but a collaborator. If that sounds like something you'd like to discuss some more, let me know!

Not going to make it tonight. Not feeling too great, so just going to stay in and work.

Well, whatever. Who's the crew?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 7, 2012 at 5:14pm PST

Dunno!! I thought it was a restaurant/bar, but that's all I know about it. It was Greenwald's pick.

Dave WachterWednesday, November 7, 2012 at 4:09pm PST

Isn't that place a sports bar?

^ lol, nah, I might be at Pride with Cait, but if that doesn't happen... yeah, what you said.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 9, 2011 at 12:40pm PDT

Link's pre-existing plans = watching Back to the Future II, eating Tornados, playing Plants vs. Zombies.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, June 9, 2011 at 12:16pm PDT

I am theoretically free (to my knowledge), but then again I suck at remembering my schedule so I'll cross check with Cait

Jeff MoreciThursday, June 9, 2011 at 11:40am PDT

I should be good for that day.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 9, 2011 at 11:09am PDT

I'll be out of town

Shawn AtkinsThursday, June 9, 2011 at 10:59am PDT

im game for that date

Dan GreenwaldThursday, June 9, 2011 at 10:44am PDT

Okay, so I'm flying solo this weekend, which is cool, but we should definitely plan to take a field trip out there. Anyone have plans on Sunday June 26th?

Seth FronzoliThursday, June 9, 2011 at 10:42am PDT

It's olive oil and regret for me!

I'm sorry, I thought comic nerds were supposed to smell like salami and despair...

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, June 9, 2011 at 10:16am PDT

Guys, maybe we should just stop beating around the bush and tell Dan about his body odor problem?

Nick MarinoThursday, June 9, 2011 at 10:08am PDT

Ehhhhhh not the best day for me either. SORRY DAAAAAAAN!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, June 9, 2011 at 5:29am PDT

Yeah, I won't be able to make it either due to pre-existing plans unfortunately, although I'd love to check it out in the future.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:55pm PDT

No problem, I'm sure another opportunity will present itself. :)

Jeff MoreciWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

I'll be out of town this weekend. Thanks for the offer. I would have if I could have.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:49pm PDT

Oops, looks like my message got cut off. Anyway, I'm meeting my friend & her two boys Sunday afternoon and showing them where the store is. I wanted to see if anyone was interested in riding out with me, checking out the store, maybe grabbing a bite after.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 7:44pm PDT

We've talked about a road trip out to Pittsburgh Comics before, but I thought I'd throw it out to you guys for this Sunday. I'm meeting a friend

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 4, 2012 at 1:39pm PST

Hi Jane!!! That is me. Sorry I'm just getting this now -- it ended up in my "Other" folder in my messages, which I didn't realize existed until today!!! So, how's life?

Jane LiSunday, April 24, 2011 at 1:47pm PDT

Hi Nick Marino, I hope this is the one who went to Western Elementary in Geneva, IL. If so, you may remember that you and I would have daily conversations about the Batman cartoon and our sadness that the Gargoyle cartoons stopped. Anyhow, thought of you today because I met this kid who reminded me a lot of you as a 5th grader. Good memories. Thought I'd facebook you.

hi laurel - i checked all of my pittsburgh mail and at the address on my driver's license, and no check has arrived at either location. it is going on one month from the date i worked for you, and i need to be paid for this. i would greatly appreciate it if you could confirm the address to which the check was sent. thanks, nick

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 30, 2006 at 9:12am PST

hi laurel - thanks for writing back. the address i wrote down should say 322 Melwood Ave Apt 5. my license has a different address on it, but i didn't write that one down on the W4. nick

14200757@facebook.comThursday, November 30, 2006 at 6:49am PST

Hey Nick, We sent out the checks about two weeks ago and I remember yours being in the bunch. Is there maybe a different address that you wrote on your W4 that your check might have been sent to? Thanks, Laurel

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 29, 2006 at 5:05pm PST

hi laurel - hope everything is well with you. when are we getting paid for the election day work we did? i haven't received a check, and to the best of my knowledge neither has shani or kameka. thanks, nick

Nick Marino, Jennifer Marino Gabrielli
Nick MarinoSunday, September 4, 2011 at 8:12am PDT

I don't remember that much about Italy (it was what? about 20 yrs since I was there) but I do remember Grandmom's stories about how Alexander wanted her to reuse the toilet paper. Ever since then, I've imagined that using an Italian toilet is like a form of psychological torture and each tiny square of TP must be preserved and reused as in some sort of horrible nightmare. I got the email last night, and I've been officially accepted for this comics show in mid-October, so I'm definitely gonna take you up on your offer and stay with you!!! I'm pretty sure it's gonna be just me (I think the four-day comics show would be waaay too much for Justique, let alone most humans). Anyway, I'll take a look at a calendar and see what dates look good, and then see if that works for you. CAN'T WAIT!!! It'll be just like the old days, when I'd come stay for a week and you'd be like "when the fuck is he going to leave?!?!?!?" Hahaha.

Jennifer Marino GabrielliSunday, September 4, 2011 at 5:49am PDT

Hi there! We are literally just back from Italy and no it was definitely not six months. In fact, by the end of our duration (a mere 3 weeks), I couldnt imagine staying even another six minutes. As I said recently to a friend, things I will not miss about Italy: italian toilets, Italian dogs, Italian traffic, Italians. Anyway, I am wiiiiide open. Come and stay whenever u want for as long as u want - nothing would make me happier!

Nick MarinoFriday, September 2, 2011 at 4:36pm PDT

How was Italy? Grandmom told me you were going, and she was like "Did you know Jennifer is going to Italy for six months?" and I was like "That can't be true." But in classic Grandmom style, she insisted it was very true. Dad filled me in on the real deal. Anyway, what's your October like? (And your early November?) In October, I've got an opportunity to set up at the New York Comic Con (13-16)... it's not totally locked down yet, but it's about 60% sure. In a perfect world, if that time of the month is okay with you, I'd love to turn it into a little mini vacation and hang out with you and the fam for a few days after the show. Also, in November, I'm hoping to be accepted to a comics show happening in Brooklyn from the 3-6.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:56pm PDT

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:56pm PDT

his visit was so fraught with issues it was unreal

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:55pm PDT

a very kind pain in the ass

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:55pm PDT

he really is

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:55pm PDT

i sorta don;t wanna go but ben's like "you gotta come see the baby!" and then once we pick a weekend he proceeds to make plans to go see the wiggles on saturday. fucking bem. i love him but he's such a pain in the ass.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:54pm PDT

bday, i'm going to philly. well, this friday (if i don't get stuck with jury duty), and then i'll head back on my actual bday.

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:54pm PDT

"u want me to look available? fine."

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:54pm PDT

u r like FB's passive aggressive boyfriend

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:54pm PDT

yes! it's so true.

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

i find it hard to hate the sole remaining outlet for what little witticisms i have

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

so true

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

anyway, i am hitting the hay soon before it hits me and wanted to know what u r doing for yr bday

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:51pm PDT

fucking FB

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:51pm PDT

but with the new one, i go offline all the time and it keeps popping up again.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:51pm PDT

yeah, that used to work for me...

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:51pm PDT

and under options you can go offline

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:50pm PDT

Jennifer Marino GabrielliMonday, July 11, 2011 at 7:39pm PDT

hey

832551165@facebook.comSunday, June 13, 2010 at 6:46pm PDT

that is totally perfect. can't wait!!!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 13, 2010 at 6:23pm PDT

okay, so i ended up getting the tix cause the price was really good, and i already email you my itinerary. here's my plan -- fly into JFK on Thurs July 1st at 8:40 PM and crash with my friend in Manhattan that night. then Justique and i take the train to Montauk on Fri morning and stay with you till Sunday. we take the train back to Manhattan on Sunday afternoon, crash with my friend and spend the Monday with him in Manhattan. then fly home on Tuesday. work okay for you?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 11, 2009 at 10:56am PDT

any idea on what you're planning yet? i'm definitely going on memorial day weekend.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 4, 2009 at 10:04am PDT

unless anything changed, from what i understand, we have until June 1st to get everything taken care of. unfortunately, i made plans for May before any of this happened and I'm pretty booked for the next two weeks. this upcoming weekend, I'm in Boston with dad (7th-10th), then i'm in Philly for less than one day for Josh's graduation (14th), and then i'm back home in PGH for Justique's bday (16th). as of right now, I'm planning on going to Philly for sure on Memorial Day weekend since I have nothing planned and it gives me an extra day for travel. also, I am available the following weekend (last of the month, since June 1st is a Monday).

832551165@facebook.comMonday, May 4, 2009 at 9:05am PDT

so what happens now..... i guess that means we have to clean it out post-haste, huh? i'll call you this eve. xo j

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 1, 2009 at 1:34pm PDT

talked to her a few mins ago and seems like everything is good to go

832551165@facebook.comWednesday, April 29, 2009 at 10:28pm PDT

yeah, i didn't either. i'm going to call her in the am. (well, i guess it IS the a.m....) posted some disney pics for you to see, dying to give you a rundown of the trip... i have an event tonight (a biggie that i'm chairing) but will call you friday when i am wonderfully, blissfully and completely free. xo j

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, April 29, 2009 at 9:37am PDT

never heard a word from aunt lori about the house yesterday.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 28, 2009 at 10:59am PDT

heard from aunt lori late this morning. buyer's doing a walk thru of the place again and we should probably know within a couple of hours.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 28, 2009 at 6:34am PDT

just so you know, i never heard back from uncle frank and aunt lori last night.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, March 17, 2009 at 9:24am PDT

yo! you never called. what's the word with that weekend?

832551165@facebook.comMonday, March 16, 2009 at 8:13am PDT

hey, sorry. I thought I'd answered. gonna call u in a bit.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 16, 2009 at 7:37am PDT

never heard back from you on my txt message. you talk to u frank / a lori yet? when i spoke with them last week, they said that the 27, 28 weekend is better. you down with that?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, September 25, 2008 at 7:56am PDT

so i heard. i hope you all get better real fast!!!

832551165@facebook.comWednesday, September 24, 2008 at 9:29pm PDT

yes and yes. sorry to be awol — me and the kids are sick. in someone else's house no less. fun stuff.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 22, 2008 at 6:33pm PDT

yeah i knew you'd bite on the prayer circle offer. halloween is so sacrilegious anyway, we should skip it and do a prayer circle on the 31st. it seems to me like your apartment arrival is still to be determined, so how about i check in a week and see if we're ready to pick a date then?

832551165@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 6:46pm PDT

hmmmmmm. that is all very intriguing information. provided we are in our place (i cant imagine we wont be, though actually there's nothing i can't imagine these days), halloween could be AWESOME. and you know i never say no to a good prayer circle. praise jesus.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 17, 2008 at 9:28am PDT

yeah, good point. since early november is better, do you like the first weekend or the second? the first weekend actually has Halloween as friday, so i could help out with the kids if you need it. then that saturday is All Saints Day so we can have an awesome prayer circle if you want. the following weekend has no notable holidays, except the 8th is X-Ray Discovery Day (see attached link).

832551165@facebook.comMonday, September 15, 2008 at 4:51pm PDT

whatever in november works for you. because if i'm not in my apt, i'll have killed myself and then you'll be attending my funeral and you'll need the tix anyway.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 12, 2008 at 8:00am PDT

definitely sans doggie. that's no problem. should we pick a date in november or do you need a couple more weeks before we pin something down?

832551165@facebook.comThursday, September 11, 2008 at 6:16pm PDT

yeah, i am getting nervous about whether we r in our apt or not by october. november we will be in for sure and more settled which will make your visit more comfortable.... if you can do it sans doggie, so much the better. xo

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 10, 2008 at 4:32pm PDT

november is fine. the only bad time is anything around thanksgiving.

832551165@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 2:18pm PDT

hold off buying anything til next week when i know if my fucking apt will even be done. hows november? i'm serious, actually. it's looking grim for october.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 12:50pm PDT

i've been on facebook for a really long time. if it's alright by you, i'll buy my tickets soon. BUT you totally didn't answer all my questions so i'll lay them out in a numbered list. 1. bring Justique? 2. if yes to #1, stay with you or at a hotel? 3. bring Bob? (i'm expecting a "NO!" to this one, but I'm just checking incase...)

832551165@facebook.comMonday, September 8, 2008 at 7:49am PDT

that should be fine. can't really imagine what all we'd have going that would inhibit any visiting. sounds good to me! btw, how do u have like 400 friends? not that u arent an amiable guy... just wondering.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 5, 2008 at 8:17am PDT

scratch that weekend - justique has plans. what about the next weekend? (friday the 17th i think)

4801997@facebook.comSunday, August 31, 2008 at 10:20am PDT

so i got the calendar open now and i'm looking at dates - how about the second weekend in october? that friday is the 10th. i was hoping to take a couple days off from work and make it a long weekend. would that work okay for you? i would love to stay at the new place but i also want you to have enough time in there so that i'm not imposing in any way (cause you know how i like to impose). is it okay if justique stays as well? like i said, i would love to stay at your place but i def understand if you would rather we get our own place. hmm i think that's all the questions i have for now. the whole month of october is pretty good for me, so i'm flexible. but the sooner i can get tickets the better!

832551165@facebook.comSunday, August 31, 2008 at 7:33am PDT

nice photo, bro. so, like i said when i texted last nite (or at least i THINK i did, i was kinda looped on elderflower liquer and champagne — more on that later), come any time. it'll have to be after sept, as we will not be in our new place til then. if you want to come before, you'll have to stay elsewhere (no st elsewhere, tho) and that would suck. miss u loads, i have truly had the most weird-ass, completely flummoxing summer EVAH. dying to see you, let's make a plan. xoxoxo j

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, March 22, 2008 at 7:29am PDT

justique's mom is shy and looks like a librarian. she's really religious but not uptight or weird about it. it's just a personal thing for her. she's extremely even tempered and she's pretty funny. you wouldn't think she's even related to justique if you met her - you can only tell by talking to her, and even at that she's very reserved unless you're cracking jokes.

832551165@facebook.comSunday, March 16, 2008 at 12:45pm PDT

well, all that is good to know and i do aplogize again (even if I can't spell it, whoops), and i'm glad we talked. hope you have a good weekend with justique's mom (what's she like, anyways?) and talk soon.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, March 14, 2008 at 8:55am PDT

i do understand how busy it can get for you. and by no means am i trying to downplay how frustrating / time consuming that can be for you. it's just that sometimes i feel like you say one thing but then act the other way. i hear you say that you want to talk more and that you care, but sometimes the actions you take - not responding, being impossible to get a hold of, setting up stuff but not coming thru - make me feel bad. and i'm not mad by any means, just a bit frustrated is all. and i would very much like to try our call thing out again. i really do appreciate your apology and i don't want you to think i'm pissed cause i'm not. i just want you to know how frustrating it can be on my end.

832551165@facebook.comThursday, March 13, 2008 at 7:09pm PDT

jesus, i was. and i still am. if you read what i wrote, i was trying to convey the level of inconvenience and distraction with which i am trying to manage on a daily basis. i say this repeatedly to people in my life: if i don't call back, it doesn't mean anything, it just means i got distracted and forgot. i cop to it and i am sorry, i should have called you back immediately, there's no excuse for that. sorry.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 13, 2008 at 6:58pm PDT

i did call. i left a message. then i came here on facebook and sent you a message saying that i had just called and i would be around for the night (you can see it, it's part of this thread of replies we have here). i feel burned because it's over two weeks later with no returned call and not even a reply message on here. and all this after you said you were excited to set this thing up.

832551165@facebook.comThursday, March 13, 2008 at 6:42pm PDT

???? I thought you were gonna call ME!!!! I figured you were busy and got tied up. Guess I misunderstood. Don't feel burned. For crap's sake, I'm living in a 300 sq ft room with 3 other people, I'm lucky I remember to wipe my ass... I will call you tomorrow and have Marcus call you in the evening, even just for a shout out if you are busy. Truly sorry, I figured you were gonna call us since 7pm, whereas we can talk, is pretty much bath/dinner/homework wrangle. Doesn't mean we're too busy, just seriously distracted. Talk tomorrow.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 13, 2008 at 8:28am PDT

you never called back or wrote back - what's the deal? i was really looking forward to our weekly call but now i feel burned.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 27, 2008 at 4:16pm PST

good to hear. i tried to catch you on the cell a little earlier. if you get the chance, gimme a ring tonight.

832551165@facebook.comTuesday, February 26, 2008 at 6:22pm PST

amazing. i'll forward the unexpuragted photos later this week.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, February 26, 2008 at 7:47am PST

same here. how was your trip?

832551165@facebook.comSaturday, February 23, 2008 at 8:00pm PST

no prob. we are back and cant wait to talk soon.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 17, 2008 at 7:17am PST

wednesdays at 7 would be perfect! i'm really looking forward to making this a regular thing. sorry i missed you before you left!

832551165@facebook.comWednesday, February 13, 2008 at 8:25pm PST

no, thats awesome. monday or weds eve around 7 is always reliable. but we are leaving saturday for jamaicea so call any time between now and then.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 13, 2008 at 8:22pm PST

hey i had an idea today. i want to be able to stay in contact better with you and the kids, and i really miss having those great talks with marcus about stories and characters. i tend to be very planned out nowadays (like i know exactly what i'm doing every night of the week), so i was wondering if there is there a time that i could call once a week. i understand that some weeks this would change or get moved around of course, but is there a fairly consistently atime when you know you have some down time and i good get some quality time in? i'm imagining a saturday mid to late morning, sunday morn, or sunday evening, etc. it could even be a certain weekday morning or evening (although my tuesday and thursday evenings are bad times). and if this idea doesn't work at all, feel free to say it doesn't work at all!

832551165@facebook.comWednesday, February 13, 2008 at 11:05am PST

as visits go, it was a good one, yeah.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 13, 2008 at 5:14am PST

btw, mom said your visit was awesome.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 13, 2008 at 5:13am PST

i know. it's painful but damn if it's not entertaining too.

832551165@facebook.comSunday, February 10, 2008 at 9:22am PST

i joined them ALL. let the jackassery ensue! i'm sitting here with granmom and lord does that lady need hearing aids. it's like "who's on first."

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, February 9, 2008 at 8:58am PST

cruise was just okay - are you going to see mom this weekend? she was real excited about that. glad you joined facebook because of me it's tons of fun. now you can witness all the stupid shit i do online. i'll invite you to all my stupid groups. watch out for the applications on here. every jackass and their friend will send you invites to add-ons for your page that seem like fun at first but then it gets real annoying. add josh as a friend and then you should be able to see the pics. now you just gotta get a myspace page!!!! you're so web 2.0!

832551165@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 4:06pm PST

cant access yr photo album, says its private

832551165@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 3:06pm PST

anyway, what's going on? how was the cruise?

832551165@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 3:06pm PST

you are the reason i joined facebook! i've ragged on it for ages and then saw u were on it and was like, "oh." how's tricks?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 11:41am PST

hey thought you would like to know that marcus is already on facebook (sort of)! josh posted some pics from that marino family thing back in sept 2006 and marcus is in a few of them. here's a link to the photo album.

How do you like this for a description of Public Offenders? An album so offensive that the FCC, CIA, ACLU, and KGB all tried to stop it! Recorded in 2009, it was confiscated by an international coalition who deemed it too outrageous for the internet. But after years of legal battles in secret underground tribunals, Reverend Laycock and Nik Furious defeated censorship with their powerful attorneying skills.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, October 9, 2010 at 10:44am PDT

so what are we doing for the cover again? we could go with another photo, or we could do something else... i could draw something, you could draw something, it could just be text, whatever. i forgot the stuff you suggested last time we talked about it.

Should be ok for me. I'll check with Shawn.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 14, 2010 at 2:51pm PST

looks like we'll be recording tomorrow night, probably starting @ 7:45. how's that time for you and shawn?

4801997@facebook.comSunday, December 5, 2010 at 2:06pm PST

OH and BTW, I have a sketch feature I run on my blog featuring art from all kinds of artists (from pros to people who never draw). it's meant to be a showcase for all kinds of illustrated expression. the basic theme is draw your favorite character. we're currently in the second volume of the project and the theme is draw your favorite character OR draw your least favorite (and tell us why you don't like them!). the catch is that the sketches shouldn't be finished pieces -- in fact, the more raw they are the better. it's called Project Basement. if you're interested, i'd love to run one of your sketches! i'll link to your stuff and rep whatever project you'd like, of course. lemme know if you're interested.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, December 5, 2010 at 2:01pm PST

Nick, I've confirmed that Shawn Gabborin is good to appear with me on your episode, so just let me know when you are recording! thanks, Chad Cicconi

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 1, 2010 at 9:55am PST

okay, sounds good. if you don't hear from me in about a week and a half, feel free to check in if you'd like! we normally plan our recording time a few days in advance.

699267941@facebook.comTuesday, November 30, 2010 at 9:54pm PST

Nick, I'm starting a new job tomorrow, so I think tomorrow is going to be kind of hectic for me. I'd love to be on the next episode if you record in two weeks. Let me know the date, and I'll let Shawn Gabborin know and he may be able to join as well, if you'd like both of us. Thanks, Chad

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 30, 2010 at 9:33pm PST

I don't what your tomorrow night is like... but we're recording our next episode in the evening, probably around 7:30ish over Skype and the topic this time is printing, so if you'd like to join in, you're invited! If you can't make it to this one, then we can try to get you in on the next one in two weeks.

699267941@facebook.comTuesday, November 30, 2010 at 9:31pm PST

Hi Nick, I just heard Sequential Underground episode 3, and particularly your shout out to PKD Media in which you guys mentioned me! Thanks! I also wanted to ask if you are looking for any guests for upcoming episodes of your podcast. I'm actually working with Shawn Pryor (formerly of PKD Media) on a new project that involves me and another local creator, Shawn Gabborin. We've joined forces with several other indy creators and we're starting a new publishing company, and one of our first books is called "Fracture." It is written by Shawn Gabborin and drawn by me. We've got a kickstarter project going to try to raise the printing costs for issue 1, and we're trying to get the word out to as many folks as possible. If you would be interested in hearing from a couple local creators, Shawn Gabborin and I are looking for ways to spread the word around the Pittsburgh comic community. If there's anything we can do with your podcast, let me know. Even a brief mention of our kickstarter project would be welcome! Thanks, Chad Cicconi p.s. There was some confusion in your discussion about where PKD media was located. Shawn Pryor lives in the Lexington, Ky area. I've been working with him for a couple of years on projects for PKD media (prior to this new project for our new company). He and I have done the Pittsburgh Comicon and the CGS supershow together for the last couple of years.

This can only mean one thing: the first step of this project has now come to a close. Which means this is the final of twelve volumes of EPs that I have been recording and producing since January. It's been a long road, and it's still amazing to me that I've pulled this off, often in the nick of time. From drummer problems, to the usual scheduling snafus, there was no shortage of hair pulling, late nites, and often maddening moments, but it was seemingly worth it. As it stands, I've created 24 original compositions, as well as 12 delightful acoustic covers. I hope that you all have enjoyed the fruits of my labor, and I'd like to thank you all for bearing with me throughout the year as I struggled with my muse. Special thanks to my fiance, she probably suffered more than anyone from my madness... Some months were definitely better than others, which is why I'm so proud to say this EP is one of the best, and I saved it for last. To those who listened to one or two of these EPs, thanks for the effort. To those who have consistently listened to each one, my eternal thanks. I hope it showed a bit of growth throughout. And to those who have continued to delete each email or message I've sent concerning this project, thanks for nothing, what did YOU do all year? So where do we go from here you may ask, or maybe I'll just ask for you... Well, I've gathered a few musicians here and there to try and piece together a handful of these songs live on stage in the near future. While it's a few months from culmination, I have resolved this year to return to the stage, and if these EPs has proven anything, it's that I'm a man of my word. Keep your eyes out for a couple cool surprises in the next week, including a Best of the Volumes edition, as well as a single click to download them all at once. Thanks for listening... Abe

Hahaha great pic! Happy Easter to you and the fam!!!

Meggie PorriniSunday, March 27, 2016 at 8:05pm PDT

Happy Easter Nick and Justique!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 15, 2016 at 3:51pm PST

Congrats on Andrew!!! That's wonderful. Cali is great! I like it way more than Pittsburgh. Better weather, different social culture, lots of cool nature stuff. Justique is doing well, thanks for asking. She just got back from a trip to Australia today. Sounds like it was pretty awesome. Still engaged, no wedding yet! Not really in a rush for it. :D

Meggie PorriniMonday, February 15, 2016 at 8:28am PST

No worries! Oh god, we've really lost touch haven't we? Are you married now or still engaged? If you're married then congrats on that instead, that sort of trumps engagement! How is justique doing? And how is California, looks beautiful, im sure it beats Pittsburgh! I was just there not too long ago for a staff meeting, reminded me of the time I stopped to visit...that was so long ago. But didn't look like much had changed there. Things are good here, had a baby in November. It's a boy, his name is Andrew. Other than that, you know just working my life away, the typical.

Nick MarinoSunday, February 14, 2016 at 9:18pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 14, 2016 at 9:18pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 14, 2016 at 9:17pm PST

Meggie PorriniWednesday, February 10, 2016 at 8:50pm PST

Hey Nick, how are you doing? I saw you're engaged, congratulations! And congratulations on your move to California, it looks like your comics are really taking off, that's awesome. I know all of this is probably late--my account was shutdown for a few years so I guess I missed a lot. Hope all is well. Meggie

1073845757@facebook.comThursday, May 6, 2010 at 8:13am PDT

Nick, thanks for the copy of your guys' book. I feel I need to give you some money for it. Sorry I didn't offer up any in the first place. It's well worth whatever you are charging. 5 bucks? No problem... I liked it. It was whimsical and quick. I enjoyed the art Shawn. Great expressions. Loved the printing too! You'll have to hook me up with their info. Looking forward to the next installment... in another 10 years, right? Anyway, next time I see either of you, I owe you some cash. -Byron

Right on dude! I love that kid

Nick MarinoSunday, April 21, 2013 at 3:08pm PDT

I met your sister today at Starbucks. She's so friendly!! Great artist too.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 7:30am PDT

I was never in McKee's Rocks! Maybe you were thinking of Shawn?? I do like Big Lots, though.

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 7:29am PDT

Oh shit. I thought you were still in McKee's Rocks. No prob though. See ya at noon.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 3:57pm PDT

hahaha i have no idea where that is! i'm at 5700 Centre Ave 15206, which is the corner of Centre and Negley, above the old Jimmy Tsang's restaurant that closed down a couple of years ago.

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 2:24pm PDT

or we could just meet at the beer distributor by the big lots.

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 1:17pm PDT

address?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 1:09pm PDT

perfecto

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 1:07pm PDT

I can pick yup no prob. How's noon?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 12:53pm PDT

if you're willing to pick me up, i'm down for the parkway phantom fo sho!! but it would be a major pain in the ass to bus out there. if i'm busing it, i'd be down for somewhere in shadyside, east lib, oakland, and downtown. what times are good for you?

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:29am PDT

Yo dude! Where's good to meet tomorrow? Any comicshop would be great. Maybe the Phantom of the attic in the parkway center mall before it closes 4eva. Taco Bell? We could meet up for some pizza. Somewhere downtown?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 9, 2012 at 11:36am PDT

errr uhh next Monday. I dunno why I thought it was today.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 7, 2012 at 2:17pm PDT

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughThursday, July 5, 2012 at 6:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, July 5, 2012 at 4:01pm PDT

DUUUUDE!! I fucked up. I thought the group meeting was gonna be on the 23rd. I'm gonna be visiting my sister from the 12th-20th. Are you okay with me skipping the OotG on the 16th?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 27, 2012 at 6:06am PDT

thumbs up!! thx

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughWednesday, June 27, 2012 at 6:03am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 27, 2012 at 5:08am PDT

I forgot... what's the name of the company that you used to print Don't Come Back???

Nick MarinoMonday, May 14, 2012 at 6:20am PDT

Mountain Time 4 Life.

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughSaturday, May 12, 2012 at 6:33am PDT

Cool! Thanks man! I'll get an event profile together in the next couple days. I'm thinking we could do a "bring the first comic you remember owning/reading or just the last thing you picked up/read." Sort of thing/ Good call, sir. Fuck Mountain Time Nate

Nick MarinoFriday, May 11, 2012 at 10:05am PDT

I'm down for anything, to be honest. We could do a theme instead of a particular work, like Newspaper Strips vs. Webcomics (which do you prefer, what do they do better, which ones work better in collections, etc.). Or we could try to think of a really popular book that everyone's already read. Or it could be something like bring in a copy of your first comic or the oldest comic you can remember / still own. Like a show-and-tell type of thing :) Oh, and don't forget the meeting is on the 21st and not the 14th!!!

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughWednesday, May 9, 2012 at 9:53am PDT

Ah well here I am facepalming again... The next scheduled Out of the Gutter guest is Ed. He didn't think he'd be doing one because I told him his month was April and he was busy then, but then everything got bumped up a month so as to make Asterios Polyp the first book and I forgot to edit my notes, etc. etc. Very boring...anyways. Ed already did his talk at CMU and I don't want to bug him about doing another one at the library so close to the last one (and with such short notice) I told Corey it was off, so hopefully they'll take it out of the advertising. That leaves us with an night bereft of book, guest, theme, etc. I know the onus is totally on me to figure that out, but I figured I'd get you up to speed and see if you have any suggestions. Best! -Nate

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughMonday, April 16, 2012 at 1:53pm PDT

*facepalm*

Nick MarinoMonday, April 16, 2012 at 1:50pm PDT

YO, you set the event time as 6:30... MOUNTAIN TIME!!!!

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughSunday, January 15, 2012 at 5:07pm PST

:) Great! I will see you there then! Thanks!

Nick MarinoSunday, January 15, 2012 at 5:05pm PST

Actually, the next OotG is scheduled for the 23rd, not tomorrow! I thought it was tomorrow until I looked at the schedule.

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughSunday, January 15, 2012 at 4:29pm PST

Damnit! I found out an hour ago that an extra gig I threw in for ages ago just came up and it's gonna be all day tomorrow. In a month consisting of three shifts at work and very few obligations it popped up on OOTG day. Sorry to be a bastard! Are you gonna be able to make it? Sorry man! Nate

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:43pm PDT

yeah that's a great idea. i'm gonna be meeting up with the show's head tomorrow and nailing it down a bit more. i'll let you know what happens. also, i'm gonna open it up to all the comics peeps at the show very soon...

60717201@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 10:34pm PDT

Hey man! Sorry to be getting back to you so late. Just got back from a show. I'm afraid I forgot most of the nonsense that I rambled off at you BUT I was thinking an interesting format for discussion could be that Andy JUST got into comics a couple years ago and I've been eating sleeping breathing them since I was a kid yet we're both working on similar projects and are equally obsessed with comics. What do you think about exploring the dichotomy between our backgrounds but the similarity of our approach/aesthetic etc? I'm having difficulty trying to write down the couple of other ideas I was mulling but can't seem to express them as anything other than pretentious blather. Good seeing you too man! Looking forward to this weekend. Nate

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 6:17pm PDT

hey good seeing you at the library. so tell me more about what you were thinking...

Nick Marino, Corey Wittig
Nick MarinoTuesday, October 11, 2011 at 10:27am PDT

Thx! The main idea I was gonna bring up was a series of panels / conversations among creators. For example, we'd pick a comics topic and then contact a few local creators to come in and have a discussion about the topic. I know there are a lot of local pros who haven't been in yet, and same goes for lots of local amateur creators. But I also think that some of the creators who've already spoken (Jim, Ed, Tom, etc.) would also be great for this sort of thing. I'd even like to push that idea so far as debates... try to pair up creators who might have some strong opinions on the opposite ends of a topic.

Corey WittigTuesday, October 11, 2011 at 9:59am PDT

Cool! That's all we need, Nick. One thing I wanted to stress on Monday is that people don't need to feel like they have to be there every time--that's not something Renee and I ever expected. Thanks for being into it! If you have any ideas, etc. you'd like me to bring up, just drop me a line before Monday and I'll present them to the group.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 10, 2011 at 4:03pm PDT

OH CRAP! you know what i just remembered... i'll be in NYC next Monday. i'm exhibiting at New York Comic Con this weekend, and then i'm hanging around for a few days to visit family. but even though i can't make it next week, i'm down 100% for being a OotG volunteer!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 1:22pm PST

okay, this first one here is my preferred image: http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/time-log-arm.jpg but i'm okay with any of these other three if you'd rather use them: http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/time-log-group.jpg http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/time-log-point.jpg http://nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/time-log-yell.jpg

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 1:10pm PST

yeah, i can get you something fun from Time Log. just take me a sec.

Corey WittigWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 1:03pm PST

Thanks, Nick! Do you have a image you'd prefer I use for the event page? cw

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 12:55pm PST

okay, here ya go: Shawn Atkins and Nick Marino - Using Every Piece of the Cow Shawn and Nick talk about their independent comics -- Time Log, Explorers of the Unknown, Super Haters, and more -- explaining what it means to utilize every resource available to create and promote their work, from collaboration to digital to print (and all things in between). Plus, they'll let you have a glimpse into their production process and give away some brand-spanking-new comics!

haha i'm sitting here staring at the fucking computer screen trying to write a blurb that doesn't sound stupid or over-written. i'm almost done!!! just wanted to let you know.

Corey WittigWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 11:32am PST

Great! Thanks.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 10:11am PST

no prob, i'll have it over to you real soon

Corey WittigWednesday, February 23, 2011 at 9:13am PST

Hey, Nick - Could you send me some info for our March events calendar? Just names, comics title, a blurb about your talk etc. If you could get that to me today I'd really appreciate it! best, cw

Corey WittigWednesday, December 29, 2010 at 7:30am PST

Hey, Nick - Just wrote Shawn back, but if you guys have a presentation you're welcome to do your own thing for March. Let me know if that works. Best, Corey

Nick MarinoMonday, December 20, 2010 at 7:08pm PST

i couldn't remember if it was the 3rd monday of the month or the next-to-last one. but i just checked the Gutters FB page and i see it says 3rd, so yeah, we're fine with March 15th. if it was the 22nd, that might have been tough for us cause we'll be at the SPACE show in Columbus the weekend before. just curious -- any reason why you decided to put us in a panel with other local guys as opposed to our own discussion?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 14, 2010 at 2:34pm PST

i think that'd be just fine. but to make sure -- which Monday would it be? the 15th or the 22nd?

Corey WittigTuesday, December 14, 2010 at 12:43pm PST

Hey, Nick - How does March look for you guys? I'm thinking of kind of creating a panel for that month of local guys doing their own thing, web stuff, etc.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, October 29, 2010 at 7:19am PDT

whenever is fine by us. what's the next open spot?

560023560@facebook.comThursday, October 28, 2010 at 11:28am PDT

Hey, Nick! Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. That's a cool idea. Definitely into it. When would you guys like to speak? cw

4801997@facebook.comThursday, October 28, 2010 at 10:25am PDT

hey what's up, checking in and seeing if you dig this idea or not

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, October 20, 2010 at 8:52am PDT

Hey Corey - Here's my pitch for a possible OotG in early 2011: Indie Comics Collaboration with Shawn Atkins and Nick Marino Most indie comics creators write, draw, letter, and publish their own work. But with our webcomic, Time Log, we decided to take a different approach -- we broke out the different steps of the creative process with separate roles for the writer, penciler, inker, colorist, letter, and editor. Not only that, but both Shawn and Nick juggle their own individual projects AND other collaborations at the same time. How does collaboration make the indie comics creation process better? How does it make it worse? Find out in this thrilling installment of Out of the Gutters with Shawn Atkins and Nick Marino (featuring tentative special guests and collaborators: Justique Woolridge, Paige Shoemaker, Seth Fronzoli, and Pete Borrebach).

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 11:44am PDT

SO MUCH EXCELLENT INFO!!! THX!!! This is really helpful, much appreciated. I've heard of Meltdown and Secret HQ, but not the others. Do you see lots of comics and comic art events at galleries in LA? Just curious...

Josh AtlasSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

Hey Nick, It would be sweet to get you out to LA! The city is a bit of a sprawl, and somewhat decentralized, so its hard to say exactly where the best place to live would be, but there are a lot of artists in Silver Lake and Echo Park. There is also cheap studio and living spaces a little further east, in neighborhoods like Glassel Park and Lincoln Heights, but I think that its good to start out living a little more in the thick of things. Start checking out the following places! Meltdown Comics (Extraordinarily large comic shop, does a lot of events, and also hosts openings and comedy shows). Gallery Nucleus (A lot of illustration work across the board, a bit more fine art geared but also does panels with people who work in film/television. Its way east of town, but always a fun trip). Secret Headquarters (In Silverlake, has beautiful hardwood floors/fixtures. Might be the nicest comic book shop I've ever stepped into.) Family Bookstore (Super wierdo/highly curated selection of art books/comics/prints/zines/cds). Ooga Booga (Art oriented products... zines, very indie releases, artist produced functional objects/clothes). Cheers, josh/er

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 7:20am PDT

Hey Josh - Long time, no talky. How's things? I'm messaging cause I'm eying up a movie to LA within the next year or so, and I know you're living out there. Basically, I'm wondering... what do you think are the best neighborhoods in terms of the LA art scene? Granted, I'm mostly interested in the comics scene, but nowadays it seems like indie comics are really closely connected to the fine arts scene in most cities. And also, just in general, I appreciate any LA advice that you may have! I'm sure you're a busy guy, so any info you can offer means a lot. THX!

the book is fiction. it's a martial arts sci-fi story, and a bit over the top, really. sort of Karate Kid meets Star Wars... hmm, or maybe more like Kickboxer meets Star Wars. i know that probably sounds ridiculous, and, honestly, it IS kinda goofy... but it's also a lot of fun.

1202778265@facebook.comWednesday, August 4, 2010 at 6:34am PDT

Hi Nick, I'm so sorry it took a while for me to get back to you. While the original concept was to publish books on sensory environments, developmental disabilities etc. Mostly because we saw a need for training tools, assessment guides, and text books on the subject. However, now that all the ground work has been laid out and we are established we have seen the potential for just about everything. Mind you, especially with fiction or memoirs, we have to be much more selective and market research must be done to ensure the major book buyers will stock the book. What genre is your work?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, July 29, 2010 at 9:20am PDT

hey i'm good friends with Alyssa Ference and i noticed you mentioned something about starting a small publishing company on one of her recent posts. i would have just asked you about this in the thread but i'm keeping my book super under wraps until it's at least 90% done so... i'm curious, what sort of books are you looking for?

hey nick- thanks again for doin up those posters- people around campus loved them! (and so did i, obivously) you'll be getting copies of some sweet stuff in the mail w/in a few weeks. thanks again, nick! -jeff

187700132@facebook.comMonday, March 10, 2008 at 6:01pm PDT

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 10, 2008 at 4:45pm PDT

sorry for the delayed response! i was in philly for the weekend. this time next week you will be postered by me.

187700132@facebook.comWednesday, March 5, 2008 at 2:33pm PST

nick- just checking in to see how the posters are going. do you think i could get them within 2 weeks?

187700132@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 2:37pm PST

as i recall, i remember talking about doing 2- if that's still ok, thatd be great. yeah have fun with them... make them pretty cartoony- maybe some superhero violence or obscure animals. could i get them around st. patrick's day? thanks again nick- talk soon.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, February 8, 2008 at 11:45am PST

i was just working on the posters the other day, working out some concepts, etc. how many am i doing again? i forgot how many i said i would do! (this is your chance to list some ridiculous number like 15.) yeah, i'm good to go with the pics and i'm looking forward to having some fun drawing these. i'll be in touch soon.

187700132@facebook.comThursday, January 31, 2008 at 10:57am PST

Nick- just checking in to see how the posters are. can you get at those pictures ok? let me know if you have questions or anything Jeff

187700132@facebook.comMonday, December 31, 2007 at 5:33pm PST

Nick- just checkin to see if you got that email about the pics, and how i had to create a facebook album bc they wouldn't send... you good? Jeff

4801997@facebook.comMonday, December 10, 2007 at 3:13pm PST

yeah that is very much okay. it has less to do with how big i draw it and more to do with how big i make the digital file.

187700132@facebook.comSunday, December 9, 2007 at 6:29pm PST

are two 11x17s ok? i'll send the pics your way soon.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 5, 2007 at 5:49pm PST

it's all gravy baby. send the pics whenever. i forget - did i give you my email? nickmarino@gmail.com those sound like good ideas for pics. i'll have fun with it. how many am i supposed to do? and what size again - 8.5 X 11 or bigger?

187700132@facebook.comThursday, November 22, 2007 at 7:39pm PST

Mr. Marino- News- I switched my recital from March 6th to May 1st because I had to have shoulder surgery. I can still send you some pictures over Christmas- will that timing be alright? Also, what are you thinking? Should I just send you a few pics of things with distinguishable features (like me, my case, cello...), add the date/time info, then you just take it from there? I'll also give you the size. Thanks again for doing this, Nick. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. -Mr. Erbland

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 14, 2007 at 9:52am PDT

2 is fine

187700132@facebook.comSaturday, September 8, 2007 at 3:46pm PDT

sounds great! i'll be sure to have some pics to you by christmas/the new year. i was thinking of just giving you a couple shots of myself, cello, case...the basics- then letting you do your own thing with it. i asked you if you could do this because i feel a lot of the conservatory students get creative, but not THAT creative...this would be something new, ya know? id like the posters to make people look twice at them, so incorporating something pretty atypical would be good (like the black cactus guy, the octopus...whatever you want). also, could you do 2, or just have time for 1? if just 1 its totally cool. let me know. thanks again, nick. you da mannnnnn

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 1, 2007 at 4:29pm PDT

okay i would need... hmmm... if you send the pics to me around new years that should be perfect. little over a month. DEF send pics of whatever you want... PLEASE!!! everyone always asks for drawings, i ask them to send me pics and i'll do it, and then they never send the pics! that's all they have to do!!! it drives me crazy. anyway, i just need to know the size so i can make the right size in photoshop, that's all. i'll def be emailing me the files. you can email the pics to nickmarino@gmail.com - but shoot me a line on here too just so i know. i like your super-prepared style. nice!

187700132@facebook.comTuesday, August 14, 2007 at 4:11pm PDT

i shouldve told you that itd be best if you sent them to me via email or something, then i went to the print shop on campus and had them print them off on the right sized paper...i dont know if that would change anything with size or anything.

187700132@facebook.comTuesday, August 14, 2007 at 3:35pm PDT

nick- you sure about that? that'd be amazing... i'd prefer color, and the prints are normally 13 x 15, or 13.5 x 15 or 13 x 15.5 or whatever the measurement is. i love looking at the cartoons you post on facebook, and thought itd be awesome to have a poster or 2 with your individual spin on it. (and because i dont remember the last time i saw someones poster that had been drawn or anything) how long would you need if i were to receive them around and 2nd week of february? i can send you a couple pictures this fall or winter (or whenver you want them) of myself, my instrument, the case, or whatever else so you know what stuff looks like. thanks so much nick- talk to you soon. jeff

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, August 14, 2007 at 1:59pm PDT

i'll charge a costly zero dollars for it. i'd love to draw something like that. thanks for asking. color or black & white? 8.5 X 11 or bigger?

187700132@facebook.comThursday, August 9, 2007 at 11:27am PDT

Nick- hey man how's it goin? what are you up to nowadays- still living in PA? i've just got 1 more year left out here in chicago (wheaton), still majoring in cello performance...almost done! anyways, my senior cello recital is march 6, 2008 (out here in chicago)- i wanted to ask about the possibilities of you making a poster or 2 for me to put up around campus before the recital. i'll probably have like 3 or 4 total, and thought that itd be cool if at least 1 was a cartoon. what do you charge for this kind of stuff, and how long do you need to produce something? it's sort of far down the road into the year, but i thought id bring it up now since i was thinking of it (whenever i think of it, i'm never near a computer...). i hope you're doin well, nick. update me on whats going on in your life! talk to you soon man jeff

yo Jer! neal told me you had something you wanted to do for the Top 9 about comic-con. interested in running it this Friday?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, July 20, 2009 at 8:18pm PDT

spf was sweet, thx! i'm waaaaay down for you writing a top 9 - would you wanna post it this friday or wait until after the show and do a top 9 recap sort of thing? no pressure on the call in thing. howz about this? if you have anything you think is worth calling in about, just call the comment line at 412-576-7606 and leave a message and we'll play it. but if you're busy having tons of fun and paneling about, don't sweat it!

4803839@facebook.comSaturday, July 18, 2009 at 3:24pm PDT

Though I'll probably be really nervous and don't know what say, I would be down to do a phone convo, haha! We'll have to work something out since I will probably be in panels most of the time, but I can always do a recap or something at the end of the day, or end of the show. Plus, I can finally get around to doing another Top 9, and it'll be something Comic-Con related. Let me know what you think! I'll most likely be twittering a lot too, so you can always forward stuff my way, like questions or things that hear about the Con. Hope you're having a great time at SPF!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, July 17, 2009 at 9:50am PDT

you should totally be the AudioShocker comic-con liason!! that is, if you want to. i mean, i have no idea what that would entail... oh wait yes i do!!! we could record a phone convo or two with you and add them to our podcast that we run on July 28th. again, that is, if you want to. we could either have it as you calling into the comment line (just you solo) or us actually talking and recording via TalkShoe.

4803839@facebook.comThursday, July 16, 2009 at 12:59pm PDT

Hey guys, I'm getting ready for my annual trip to San Diego for Comic-Con. Just letting you know, if there's anything I should check out or something you want me to pick-up for you guys (comics, toys, whatever) let me know! It's not a problem. Take care! - Jer

I wouldn't mind being somewhere where the people are slower. Except for really slow drivers. They annoy me! J is okay... gettin better everyday, thx for asking! I'm slightly less of a shut-in lately, and Soulboxer hasn't even been touched (let alone considered much) since I saw you... which was EXACTLY ONE MONTH AGO, according to the older messages we exchanged here on FB.

Nicole OhSunday, August 28, 2011 at 7:31am PDT

Damn i wasn't done. there's a lot to do here, and a lot of famous people come through, which is cool for guests :). How is everything with you? is your girlfriend feeling ok? How is your freelance lifestyle coming along? How is the soul boxer book writing going? Sincerely, Nicole Ohaya and the Jive Family.

Nicole OhSunday, August 28, 2011 at 7:29am PDT

Nick Marino! It's really good! I'm really enjoying my family. The only thing is, the people here are reeeeeeally slow. They walk slowly, they talk slowly... I guess there is something that i could get out of it, but I usually have to repeat myself because i think i speak too fast for Georgia! Ahaha!

ARGGHHH! the bus musta come early cause i've been outside for over 20 mins and it didn't show up. SORRY! the next one comes at 6:30... so it'll probably take me about 15 mins to get up to sq hill. SOOOOORY!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 28, 2011 at 2:21pm PDT

seeeee youuuuuuuu

Nicole OhThursday, July 28, 2011 at 1:45pm PDT

see you at 630!

Nicole OhWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 4:19pm PDT

they knew they had to smooth over the previous lack of email so they covered all of their bases by saying you also sent YOURSELF a message! :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 4:01pm PDT

yeah! perfect. (BTW, i got an email about your message this time, and the email subject line was "New messages from Nicole and Nick"... WTF??? the only new message i have is from you.)

Nicole OhWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 3:28pm PDT

yes tomorrow for sure. 630 at 61c?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 3:10pm PDT

crap i just got this message now! facebook didn't send me an email about it. anyway, at this point, i'm kinda tied up for the rest of the day. tomorrow?

Nicole OhWednesday, July 27, 2011 at 8:51am PDT

no worries, Marino! I was so happy to seeeee you! i'm free all day if you want to get coffee. I live in sqhill by many coffee places 4129151607

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 26, 2011 at 4:29pm PDT

yo sorry to cut and run like that! honestly, it's the sorta thing where i really just wanna catch up with you and don't have anything to say to anyone else there, so i figured i'd jet so you can do your social thing. anyway, i'm sure you're real busy before you go, but if you got an hour or two to spare, maybe we can meet up somewhere and grab coffee or food and have a proper goodbye conversation instead :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2011 at 1:57pm PDT

sq h, eh? what part??? i'm in shadyside/east lib/friendship/whatever, next to the market district. your rents are in Atlanta still, right? your sister now too? it'll probably be more fun than here. i'm planning an escape to Los Angeles slowly but surely because, while it's okay here, i'm getting a little bored. i'm focusing 100% right now on my comics stuff, which is uhhhhhh going okay, i guess. it's fine, but i need to make it make me some money. i'm down for meeting up at some point before you head to Atlanta. oh and i tweeted about TW cause i was naming off ridiculous band names from my past.

Nicole OhSaturday, April 16, 2011 at 6:54am PDT

Nick Marino! or should i say: lose the 'tude, Marino!?!?! :) hi! I'm doing really well! I'm still working at the diocese and living in sq hill with my dog. I'm going to europe on wednesday and I'm moving to atlanta in august. how are you, dear old friend? you seem to really be making it happen with the podcast and comics!! that's awesome!! what is new? where are you living? what did you tweet about twat waffle(best band ever[!])? speaking of andre agassi fucking someone with a tennis racket, I hung out with Erin last night! she's still exactly the same! she's soooo funny! we should try for a tw reuni-yine before I leave pgh forever! I expect you to reply to this message appropriately with the same amount of effort that I have! this isn't twitter nicholas! you have all of the characters in the WORLD!! :)

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2011 at 3:06pm PDT

hehehe was just talking about Twat Waffle on Twitter and i thought i'd say what's up. how you doin?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 29, 2008 at 9:26am PDT

okay! that went well! it def looks like we're trying to do different musical things, if not OPPOSITE musical things. if you end up getting the band together and decide that you want to record, let me know because i might be interested in working on that with you. p.s. i'm okay. my non-musical life consists of other creative projects (http://audioshocker.com mostly) and also comic books i'm working on and publishing sometime within the next couple years. still with the law firm doing web stuff for a day job. what about you?

14200124@facebook.comMonday, September 29, 2008 at 6:37am PDT

Ok, so i guess the best way would be for me to outline my response according to your little list system: 1) I've been in bands that are raunchy for so a while as well, and I think i'm interested in moving away from that genre. "filth rock" haha i think i just coined a new genre. 2) no sense in starting something you'll quit, i totally understand that. 3) recently i've been really into singing more than playing, so i don't think I'm feeling an instrumental project at this point in time. 4) Recording would be fine, but i'd definitely like to play a live show or 2. *I guess we should say no then? I think we both have different ideas of what we want to do musically, right now. P.S. How are you? What's going on in your non-music life, and where are you working these days?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 26, 2008 at 1:05pm PDT

i've been playing in bands going on 13 years now and i know my limitations at this point so here they are: 1) i am physically and emotionally incapable of committing myself to any music with lyrics that haven't been "nick-ized," meaning made with completely filthy / sexually raunchy content, and bundled with some sort of offensive but poorly conceived stage show. i know this to be a fact. 2) i will quit any band after a couple months of nebulous brooding UNLESS the music is either a) instrumental, or b) "nick-ized," meaning made with completely filthy / sexually raunchy content. i also know this to be a fact. 3) i am, however, capable of committing to an instrumental project OR a project that has a lot of instrumental elements to it. i've been making instrumental non-dirty music for a while now and that's been going well. i've done a few unique instrumental projects in the past that lasted for a couple shows and i've enjoyed the music. 4) all those things apply to live music. if we're talking about a recording project, then it might be different. i MIGHT be able to do the non-dirty thing because i love recording. notes: i don't have a car anymore. i don't personally have a practice space to play loudly in (but recording is fine). i don't want to play in a band where i have to teach the other musicians how to play (not to sound like a dick but i've done that too many times in the past and i'm not up for it again). SOOOOOO with all that said, if what you're thinking of meets these criteria / works out with all this, i'm interested.

14200124@facebook.comMonday, March 20, 2006 at 6:32am PST

OMG NICKKKK!! I would LOOOOVE to come, but i'm gonna be at PSU that weekend!! I'm really pissed i'm gonna miss thisssss!! aaaahhh!! well good luck! I know you'll do wonderfully!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 7:29pm PST

hey Nixx. i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 28, 2014 at 11:37am PST

yo! i just finished my first graphic novel and i wanna include you in my email when i send out a super top secret link to the PDF. what's your email addy nowadays?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 19, 2011 at 2:35pm PST

hey your friend who works for DC... what department are they in? i just randomly checked out a job listing with company and i'm wondering if your friend is in the same department. thx! btw, you're going to barcelona? everyone i know who's been there says it's the best.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 9:19am PST

Oh man, Afro Man and B-Bob need to come out of retirement, that's how they're doing! I'm focusing on my Super Haters and Time Log webcomics right now... and gearing up for work on a couple other projects (hush hush stuff... like http://www.thebible2.com/ ). Thx for passing along my site!!! I really wish the DJ Sara and Ryusei thing had worked out a few years back. I just wasn't in the right place for it artistically. My loss! What's new with you?

Diane HainesWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 8:47am PST

hey dude, just passed along your website to my friend who works for DC comics... how are afro-man and ballerina bob?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 8, 2008 at 8:30pm PDT

p.s. this is what my stuff looks like nowadays (i suspect it looks exactly like it always has). i have a bit of flexibility in my style, but at the end of the day the hand draws what the hand wants. just so you know...

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 8, 2008 at 8:27pm PDT

they're nuts!!! they look so young! i am honored that you thought of me. of course i'm interested! but we should def do this by email because i only check facebook once a week, if that. i'll shoot you a line on gmail right now.

8402769@facebook.comMonday, April 7, 2008 at 6:26am PDT

so i was leaving work on friday and on my way down to the subway platform I had an idea...I want Nick marino to design a little cartoon of the wonder kid DJs from Japan: Dj Sara & Ryusei!! You've probably gotten the random request to be their friend on facebook, well the story is, I found them on Youtube and then convinced Warner Music Group to fly them in for our Grammy after party...anyways, they are freaking incredible and amazing and now I'm serving as their international manager, working on building hype and getting them more gigs...which is not hard considering the hype that has already grown on its own...I think their youtube clip is at 1.5 million. anyways, I'm working on building them a blog and eventually a website....but we really need some cool branding/logo design work for them....maybe you want to doodle a little image of them? damn, i went home last weekend and went thru a bunch of random notes that I've saved with all your drawings...good 'ol ballerina bob and afro man...ahhhh memories :) anyways, check out their youtube page... http://www.youtube.com/user/sarascratch?ob=1 also, what's your email? i can send you some more pics and info if yer interested.... i mean the possibilities here are endless...would eventually love to make some merch with your design.... hope you are doing well: my email is: diane.haines@gmail.com much love, diane

4801997@facebook.comMonday, February 26, 2007 at 9:04pm PST

thanks diane. that means a lot to me. i would be honored to work on a project for you. but tell me this - who is "we" that you refer to? in the meantime, any requests for a drawing? i'm sure you have some great twisted ideas.

8402769@facebook.comMonday, February 26, 2007 at 7:55am PST

ok...seriously...your cartoons are freaking brilliant...I still have a box of random sketches and trinkits you gave me throughout our schooling years...i plan on selling them on Ebay once you become rich and fmaous and they're worth millions!!!mwhwahahahah...but seriously...I'm definitely keeping you in mind for any projects we do that we need art for....you know, major record label worthy art... :)

hey what's up Erin. i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, August 20, 2010 at 5:21pm PDT

great! glad to have you on board.

100000035927557@facebook.comFriday, August 20, 2010 at 5:10pm PDT

looks and sounds cool. I like to submit something. Let me see what I can sketch up!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, August 20, 2010 at 5:04pm PDT

yeah, basically. it can be your fav or your least fav or both... or neither if you decide you don't wanna go that route! i think the best way to get a feel for it is to check out the Project Basement submissions we've had so far (see link!). some people have flaunted the rules and turned in more detailed (and awesome) stuff, though i encourage everyone to try and capture the energy of a quick drawing to best keep with the spirit of the project. and whenever you're done, yeah, just send me something of at least 300 dpi at full dimensions (that's for print, because it's most likely going to end up in an ashcan... for example, PB v1 just finished printing and it looks awesome). i'll take jpg, png, tiff, psd, etc. also, when you email me the art, make sure to give me any text you'd like me to run with the piece when i post it on the blog. AND... just so you know, new PB submissions are posted every Sunday.

100000035927557@facebook.comFriday, August 20, 2010 at 4:53pm PDT

so just a sketch of our least favorite and favorite character and then send it to you?

mike - a good friend of mine is going to be losing his day job soon. thing is, he's a terrific illustrator and should be doing that type of work instead of looking for another Kinko's sort of job. he's drawing constantly and producing work even though he hasn't made the leap to full-time pro yet. i know in your line of work there's always a need for artists, so i was wondering if you or anyone you know might be looking for an illustrator (and graphic artist) for an upcoming project. if so, i can email you some samples or put the two of you in touch. thx, nick

Kaylie McDougalMonday, November 2, 2015 at 9:03am PST

Haha that's awesome! :D

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:18am PST

still only sold one more print BUT the couple told me they're gonna hang it over their bed! hahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:18am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:18am PST

I mean they're can't get enough of it!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:18am PST

okay that sounded gross

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:17am PST

They just gush over it at the convention.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 7:17am PST

PEOPLE. LOVE. YOUR. JESUS COVER!!!!

Kaylie McDougalThursday, October 1, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Of course, thank you for sharing with me! :D

Nick MarinoThursday, October 1, 2015 at 10:16pm PDT

Yeah he's so much fun to work with. I love his art! Thanks for checking it out :D

Kaylie McDougalThursday, October 1, 2015 at 9:41pm PDT

Oh man this is great! Daniel's such a great artist, he perfectly compliments your writing!

here's our new story. we're still hunting for a publisher. just sent out a bunch of pitches last week!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 1, 2015 at 5:02pm PDT

did you already discuss story length and stuff like that? would you be doing a certain number of issues or would it be a GN or what?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 1, 2015 at 5:01pm PDT

double gulp!!! BUT HOPEFULLY IT'S A YES!!!!

Kaylie McDougalThursday, October 1, 2015 at 4:46pm PDT

and of course! you guys are killin' it

Kaylie McDougalThursday, October 1, 2015 at 4:46pm PDT

I emailed the ditor was talking to, and she apologized for not getting back to me cuz she was at a con, and said Dinogeddon is currently with the editor-in-chief at Oni and she'll let me know as soon as she hears back from him. gulp.

Kaylie McDougalThursday, October 1, 2015 at 4:45pm PDT

oops, sorry, I only now saw this for some reason :(

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:08pm PDT

also, wanna see what Daniel and i are working on next?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 25, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

any news???? i wanna knooooow so bad!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

gotcha!!! thank YOU for being awesome ;)

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Anyway! I'm at work so I should probably get back to it! Thanks for always being such a solid dude, Nick!<3

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:49pm PDT

Heheh cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:48pm PDT

i told her about oni. i also told her to talk to you about it! hehehe

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:47pm PDT

Yeah, definitely

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:46pm PDT

i can understand why, especially because i hate shutting friends out myself. but at the same time, i feel like you should only have to take so much passive aggression from a friend, ya know? among other things, of course.

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:45pm PDT

Aww thanks! That makes me feel a little better. I felt bad / guilty about it for a long time.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

but obviously she's been dealing with her own difficult shit and i think things might be kinda picking up for her a bit right now

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:44pm PDT

i guess i relate to your perspective on the situation because sophie did NOT make it easy for you!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

see but being in the thick of it i really understand where you were coming from...

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:43pm PDT

Yeah we kinda got weird for a while and a while back I shot her a message apologizing for kinda shutting friends out, including her, and told her i was open to being pals again, and she was just kinda like "yeah, that sucked, no hard feelings though," and has like avoided me ever since. So I dunno if she thinks I hate her, or she hates me, or whatever

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

and yeah i dunno why sophie didn't just message you but you know how she is, a little dramatic like that

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

Yeah, me too

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:40pm PDT

because it's seriously just rude

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

with stuff like that

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

i'm actually trying to be more persistant

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

do it

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

YES

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

I mean I'll still shoot an "are you still interested?" email just in case, but y'know

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

it's so nerve racking though

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

i think that's all it is

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Haha okay, I guess it's an editor thing! That makes me feel a little relieved

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

so i think it might just be a publisher employee thing in general

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

but Kelly has also told me horror stories about unresponsive editors that DO get paid!! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

well, the joke me and all of my Action Lab friends have is that you never fucking hear back from our publisher because none of them are salaried.

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

I was wondering because she was very responsive at first, then dead silence haha

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

oh you mean the Oni editor

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:37pm PDT

Oh, okay

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

I ask because the editor I'm dealing with told me she wanted to pitch Dinogeddon as a miniseries and she'd get back to me to discuss payment and stuff, so I sent her a couple more brief story ideas I had to flesh out a full mini series, and that was about 3 weeks and I have yet to hear back

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

did you already reach out to them?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

it takes hella long to hear from them

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

YES

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Off subject but kinda similar, I remember you saying Action Lab was kinda hard to communicate with in the beginning process, and I was wondering if in your experience it can take a while to hear back on stuff?

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 1:33pm PDT

Haha she's so silly, I wonder why she doesn't just talk to me?? Anyway, yeah, it's fine, I don't mind :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 16, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Sophie asked me about what might happen with Dinogeddon. can i tell her or do you want me to dodge the question?

Kaylie McDougalFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:37am PDT

Awesome! Thanks so much! :)

Nick MarinoFriday, August 21, 2015 at 12:36am PDT

YAASSSSSSSSSSS so exciting! I'll email you with a few different suggestions.

Kaylie McDougalThursday, August 20, 2015 at 11:47pm PDT

Hey Nick! I just heard back from Oni Press and they're interested in Dinogeddon, and they want a detailed outline of the story. I'm a little nervous because I'm not exactly sure how to write out a proper "industry-standard" outline or script. So I was wondering if you could e-mail me some sample outlines or scripts for Holy F*ck, or anything else, that I could use for reference?

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 4:42pm PDT

Cool, thanks! I'll let you know what ends up happening... it's just something I'm exploring right now.

Kaylie McDougalThursday, August 13, 2015 at 2:44pm PDT

Sure!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 13, 2015 at 2:23pm PDT

I've got a couple of conventions coming up this fall. When I was selling Holy F*ck comics at the Phoenix Comic Con a couple of months ago, people were loving your Jesus cover! I was thinking about making a few prints to see how they sell. Would that be okay with you?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 7:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 10:07am PST

anyway, the biggest thing i want to know is.... is there something you've been itching to draw? a particular setting or certain kind of character or a type of plot?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 10:06am PST

that was an intense breakfast! haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 10:05am PST

it's all good!

Kaylie McDougalThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:14am PST

Haha okay sweet I'm at work so sorry if my responses are kinda spotty

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:02am PST

Hey I'm gonna go eat breakfast. It just finished before I checked Facebook but I was so excited I had to write you back first!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:02am PST

YAY!!!!!

Kaylie McDougalThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:02am PST

Definitely! :)

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 9:01am PST

I always have tons of concepts waiting in the wings that I'd be thrilled to share with you. But even if one of those ideas clicked with you, I'd prefer to flesh it out together rather than me just giving you a script.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:59am PST

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAA!!!! That would be so rockin to work with you! Right now, I don't have anything specific in mind except for creating a fucking rad story. In fact, I'd be interested in developing a concept together. Are you up for that kind of process?

Kaylie McDougalThursday, February 5, 2015 at 8:47am PST

Actually, I've been thinking recently about wanting to get back into drawing comics, and the possibilities of working with a writer, but there hasn't been anyone I've really trusted to work with. I would definitly be interested in working with you! Can you give me some idea of a project you have in mind?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 7:00pm PST

so i'm wondering... could you recommend any cartoonists who might be interested in testing out a collaboration with me? it could be someone i know or someone i've never even heard of! i just respect your opinion and wonder how you might answer that question.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 6:59pm PST

but you're also busy with your stuff and i totally respect that!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 6:59pm PST

obviously i'd love to work with you.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 6:58pm PST

i'm interested in developing some new collaborations with cartoonists who want to tell cool stories.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 6:58pm PST

totally unrelated, i have a question for you...

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 3, 2015 at 6:58pm PST

your issue is out on comixology tomorrow!

Kaylie McDougalThursday, January 29, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

i wouldn't be mad! yeah that sucks

Nick MarinoThursday, January 29, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

i don't know exactly when it'll be in stores yet... i had to learn the hard way that the publisher isn't very exact about shipping and printing

Nick MarinoThursday, January 29, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

k! would you be mad at me if i gave you more than one?!?

Kaylie McDougalThursday, January 29, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

aww um just one of each would be fine :)

Nick MarinoThursday, January 29, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

how many copies would you like of each variant cover? i'm ordering them soon.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 2, 2014 at 12:32pm PST

YAY! i'm so glad. i hope your holiday trip was great. how's other stuff? as for the Haters, comiXology gives me the option of creating bios for the book's creators. what i need from you (if you'd like) is a 600 x 600 px photo and a few shorts sentence for a bio. here's mine: https://www.comixology.com/Nick-Marino/comics-creator/36229 thing is, you don't HAVE to do the bio. but it's an option that's open to you if you'd like it.

Kaylie McDougalTuesday, December 2, 2014 at 12:20pm PST

I'm sorry, yes! I'm 100% down!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 2, 2014 at 12:08pm PST

soooooo... whaddaya think? you down?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:09pm PST

surprise! here's a thing i did: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/06-super-secrets.pdf (i recommend making the PDF full screen and then using the right arrow key to go page-by-page) i've selected seven Super Haters stories to test out the waters on ComiXology. they're all formatted to be read in that panel-by-panel mode called Guided View Native. i'd like to submit the seven stories as one collected edition to ComiXology. i think a fair split is that each artist will get 10% of the profits and i'll keep everyone updated on our progress once the book is accepted and starts to sell. frankly, i don't expect the profits to be much! but it'll be cool to have our Super Haters story available on a big venue like ComiXology :D so what do you think... are you down with this?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 8:01pm PDT

okay, so i just heard back from them. GO FOOOORRR ITTT!!! show me your Beefcake Satan! since your covers will be on the first issue, we need to get it turned around kinda quickly. do you have the time to do it this week? same as before, you can just email me the PSD. thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 7:50pm PDT

cooooool!!! i'll keep you posted about it. hopefully i'll know soon.

Kaylie McDougalTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 6:34pm PDT

sure!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 5, 2014 at 4:41pm PDT

this isn't 100% official yet, but Action Lab is proposing expanding our cover lineup to include Jesus and Satan variants for each issue. if this new variant plan ends up going down, do you have time in your schedule to doodle Satan facing the other direction over the same background? i'll toss you $50 for it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 6, 2014 at 1:31pm PDT

that video is so awesome!!!! how's stuff with the Haters going? i mapped out the schedule for the remaining strips, and it looks like Super Haters will be running daily (Mon-Fri) from the end of May until the final day, June 25th. our story is scheduled for a June 16th launch (trailer on the 16th, story begins the next day on the 17th). i'm a slow colorist, so the minimum amount of time i'll need to color, letter, and make the trailer is two weeks (so basically a final cutoff deadline of June 1st for the lineart). does that feel like a realistic deadline for you? if it seems like June 1st is too soon for you, i'm open to reducing the number of pages or coming up with a different way for us to collaborate. Stique and i are working our story arc now and it has the potential to have a flexible page count. but since i'm writing and sketching that story out now, i'd need to know soon if i should expand it! :D i hope everything else is going well! i'm so stoked to know that you've got this new job that appreciates you. also, you gotta watch Sir Billi / Guardian of the Highlands. so terrible. so funny.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 30, 2014 at 9:48pm PDT

not podcasting is THE BEST! okay, not really. i miss all of the great conversations. but it's an awesome change of pace. do you miss it yet? i mean, it's only been a month, but that's still two episodes we would've recorded. i'm doing okay otherwise. i'm so stoked to see your linework!!!

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, April 30, 2014 at 9:32pm PDT

thanks!! i'm a little behind on my linework because of work and stuff, but it's coming along! i LOVE my job! it's great!! super glad you like the sketch, can't wait to show you some other stuff i'm working on! :D how are you doing?? how's not podcasting treatin' ya?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 30, 2014 at 7:05pm PDT

love the Haters sketch. can't wait to see more!!! :D

Nick MarinoMonday, April 21, 2014 at 9:29am PDT

YO BRO! just saying hi, seeing how things are going, checkin' in on Super Haters, and so on. HOW'S THE JOB? How's Dr. Bunny? How's your work going on the script for the fourth Look Who's Talking movie?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 9, 2014 at 7:30am PDT

Magic Puppy for Monday sounds good to me! i like the idea of announcing the Pony Tale episode ahead of time too because then people can watch it before the podcast comes out :D

Kaylie McDougalSaturday, March 8, 2014 at 10:51pm PST

Omg! Pony tale should totally be our finale!! aww i love podcasting with you too! I was kinda like you and Ross and ready to just be done, mainly because I've been having killer health problems lately, but I'm getting better and feeling good, so i think I'm totally up for recording a few more episodes :) i guess for Monday we could watch magic puppy??

Nick MarinoFriday, March 7, 2014 at 11:11am PST

DeCoteau movie is a great idea!!! A Pony Tale (a.k.a. A Talking Pony) is on Netflix: http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/A_Pony_Tale/70299793 and so is A Magic Puppy: http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/A_Magic_Puppy/70291893 as much as i'm psyched for my official podcasting retirement, i also love podcasting with you. next monday doesn't HAVE to be our last episode. we could do as many as three more episodes (Mar 11, Mar 25, Apr 08... although i'll be in NYC the first week of April so i'd have to record the one for the 8th in advance). i'm just tossing that out there as an option. i'm totally cool with whatever. also, i think Fawn would SUPER want to be on the Pony episode.

Kaylie McDougalFriday, March 7, 2014 at 9:39am PST

Yes, I think I'll be good! What would you like to do for our last episode?? I was thinking about watching a terrible kids movie or one more DeCoteau movie, since that's how we started XD but if you don't wanna watch anything that's fine too

Nick MarinoFriday, March 7, 2014 at 8:05am PST

you down to record on Monday?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 11, 2014 at 10:09am PST

which sailor moon eps are we watching next time?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 28, 2014 at 3:16pm PST

yeah, i know!!! bummer. TIME TO HIT UP THE LIBRARY

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 28, 2014 at 3:16pm PST

Kaylie McDougalTuesday, January 28, 2014 at 2:01pm PST

but i just realized i think she's only uploading a chapter a week and is at chapter 12 right now.

Kaylie McDougalTuesday, January 28, 2014 at 2:00pm PST

this is the version i've been listening to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXIp6saGLAY&feature=share&list=UUxPr-Lklsv-cc7YlGQuuAiQ&index=11

Nick MarinoThursday, January 16, 2014 at 2:41pm PST

since i'm just listening while i'm doing other stuff, i'm open to however much you'd like to discuss. i'm already into chapter 2, so at least the first two chapters. there are 26 chapters total, if that makes any difference.

Kaylie McDougalThursday, January 16, 2014 at 1:16pm PST

okay, cool! also -- how much of 50 Shades are we listening to? 1 chapter? 2?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 16, 2014 at 9:54am PST

i'm tweaking (i.e. improving) the Haters script. will send it to you later today.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 10, 2014 at 6:27pm PST

yo! i'm excited to record our new episode on Monday. any topics you'd like to cover other than Sailor Moon?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 24, 2013 at 3:54pm PST

http://movies.netflix.com/WiMovie/A_Magic_Puppy/70291893

Nick MarinoSunday, December 8, 2013 at 3:49pm PST

haha yeah i meant sailor moon

Kaylie McDougalSunday, December 8, 2013 at 2:30pm PST

Uh I figured we'd watch eps 3-4 of season 3...do you mean sailor moon? I think it'd be best to watch eps 12 and 13; 12 is just a fun episode i like, and 13 is more plot development!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 8:13am PST

what alf episodes are we watching next time????? i just realized i forgot to ask you yesterday!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 13, 2013 at 3:13pm PST

Jason suggested this movie, which is a terrible Mac and Me / Et-esque family film from the 80s called Nukie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQEoicOExdI

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 13, 2013 at 1:21pm PST

hahahahaha OMG yeah you're right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so weird.

Kaylie McDougalWednesday, November 13, 2013 at 1:19pm PST

whoa! :O i find it funny that she draws all these Alf x pop culture mashups, but was so incensed by my Sailor Melmac drawing XD

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 13, 2013 at 10:06am PST

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG It turns out that Kim from the podcast comments is an awesome artist. http://ravenfire5.deviantart.com/ And even better? SHE'S DONE A TON OF COOL ALF FANART!!!! http://ravenfire5.deviantart.com/gallery/45648385

Kaylie McDougalThursday, November 7, 2013 at 4:24pm PST

Skype or phone is fine :) my number's 205-475-0761

Nick MarinoThursday, November 7, 2013 at 1:42pm PST

oh or we could skype too. i was just emailing heather and i told her we could skype about it and realized that i didn't say that to you! sorry, i'm new at this advertising stuff so i'm kinda of mess with it. i think i scared ross earlier when i emailed him about the sponsorship!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 7, 2013 at 1:08pm PST

hey, i've had an opportunity come up for us to have a sponsor for our next episode. i'd love to tell you all about it but it's kind of a beast to type everything up. would you be down for giving me a call at some point to talk about it? (i'd call you but i don't have your number!)

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 22, 2013 at 7:45am PDT

omg i wanna watch this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzfuNSpP0RA

Kaylie McDougalMonday, October 21, 2013 at 9:54am PDT

Yeah, good call!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 21, 2013 at 9:53am PDT

thaaaanks! plus, this way we can announce the sailor moon thing and people can watch it before the podcast.

Kaylie McDougalMonday, October 21, 2013 at 9:52am PDT

Oh, okay!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 21, 2013 at 9:26am PDT

i was thinking i'd like to wait until next week to start on Sailor Moon. i'm just a little burned out on watching and screencapping stuff! i think ALF is the most i can handle this week. is that okay with you?

Kaylie McDougalMonday, October 21, 2013 at 12:51am PDT

are we watching just one episode of Sailor Moon, or two?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 15, 2013 at 9:02am PDT

k, KiKi! it's a plan.

Kaylie McDougalMonday, October 14, 2013 at 9:44pm PDT

that sounds fine to me! i've been curious to check out the animated series, as terrible as it seems.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 14, 2013 at 8:12pm PDT

I was wrong! We have five episodes of ALF left!! How do you think we should portion them out? The DVD set does come with a "Bonus Episode" which is the first episode of the animated series. My only suggestion is that we could review one episode of the live action show along with the cartoon.episode. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xxr276_alf-the-animated-series-s01e01-phantom-pilot-dvdrip-xvid-extremlym_shortfilms

Kaylie McDougalSunday, September 15, 2013 at 4:24pm PDT

haha okay, awesome!

Nick MarinoSunday, September 15, 2013 at 2:49pm PDT

Stique's gonna join us if that's cool with you! how about Cougar Cult? that one looks like a real classic.

Kaylie McDougalSunday, September 15, 2013 at 2:40pm PDT

sure! 8 my time right? and do we have a movie lined up, or do you just want to wing it? we could arbitrarily pick any 1313 movie

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 14, 2013 at 12:01pm PDT

same time on Monday? just making sure!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 9, 2013 at 8:28pm PDT

I forget! Probably. Jerks never emailed me back.

Kaylie McDougalMonday, September 9, 2013 at 10:38am PDT

awesome!! has A Talking Pony come Out yet?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 9, 2013 at 10:08am PDT

Hey! I found the other three seasons of ALF for super cheap so now we have more giveaways!!!

i forgot you're not on my original Project Basement facebook message thingy so you didn't get this message yet! i sent it out yesterday: hey all - the Project Basement ashcans have arrived! they were a son of a @#$%^ to to get printed at first, but it worked out beyond well in the end. so what does this mean to you? first off, anyone who contributed gets copies! i'll be distributing them to my Pittsburgh contributors over the next week. as for long distance peeps, we'll work everything out soon as well. secondly, i think that this first volume has been enough of a success so far (just in terms of the quality of contribution, the diversity of style, and the enjoyment factor for everyone involved) to say that PB volume 2 is a go! i know some of you have already prepped stuff for v2, and i think it's going to be great! BUT... for those of you not feeling the muse this time around, i'd like to add an extra option onto the Project Basement rules -- now, not only do i want to see you favorite characters from comics/games/movies/tv/etc... i also want to see your LEAST FAVORITE characters! and i want to know why you hate them! i think that'll generate some good conversation on the blog, and it'll keep things interesting for us artists. so thx to everyone who contributed. if you're on this message but didn't contribute, pls feel free to join in on v2. and make sure to share the invite to Project Basement w/ your friends! the more artists with different styles, the better!

100000018083893@facebook.comWednesday, June 9, 2010 at 5:03pm PDT

sounds awesome! thanks, Nick. :)

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 9, 2010 at 2:11pm PDT

okay, totally understood. then how about this -- i know i'm definitely exhibiting. so i'll just go ahead and sign up for one under my name. as soon as you know what you plan on doing, you let me know and we can figure out how to make it work. sound good?

100000018083893@facebook.comWednesday, June 9, 2010 at 2:09pm PDT

aaaahhh, okay. hmmm. i wish i knew the answers, but this is a bunch of firsts for me. XD first time going to toronto, first time going to a fan expo, firs time potentially being an exhibitor.... which, by the way, i'm not sure i'll have anything to even exhibit, but i'm working like hell so that i will. i'll try to give you as much notice as possible if i'm not going to be able to share a table, so i'm not like, leaving you hanging. nope, it's just me. :) a lone pilgrimage.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 8, 2010 at 5:14am PDT

hmmm okay here's the form: http://www.hobbystar.com/fanexpo/2010/SMALLPRESS_2010.pdf i'm totally at a loss for how we get both of our names on the listing! i emailed them but the bums didn't get back to me yet... i was thinking about calling but i've never called Canada. AHHH!!!! haha i found their (as yet unreleased) extra exhibitors passes form. are you bringing anyone with you or just yourself?

100000018083893@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 1:15pm PDT

thanks, Nick! i'm working on getting the computer situation sorted out, and hopefully i'll be back in drawing business soon. i'm not throwing in the towel yet!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 6, 2010 at 6:29am PDT

saw your blog post. sux about the computer!!! i'll get some more info about the tables and hopefully get this thing locked down soon.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 2, 2010 at 10:01am PDT

okay sweet. i dunno how they work there... you been to this show before? i know some cons will let you split a table and still put both names in the books and such, and others won't. anyway, i was checking out the registration form last night and the artist alley tables are $255.

100000018083893@facebook.comWednesday, June 2, 2010 at 6:22am PDT

i'm definitely interested!! sounds awesome. just lemme in on the details when/if you find out about them. oh, also, i got your message about project basement, thanks! it may take me a little while to get something together, but i will participate. it's a mad dash to finish my comic before toronto right now. XD

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 1, 2010 at 9:59pm PDT

hey so are you interested in doing this toronto fanexpo thing ross talked about tlast weekend come the end of august? i'm looking into getting a small press / artist's alley table there, if you're interested in splitting. just throwing that out there. LEMME KNOWWWW

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 30, 2010 at 3:05pm PDT

oh, also, you can email it to me at nickmarino@gmail.com -- pls no less than 300 dpi. color or b&w is fine.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 30, 2010 at 3:05pm PDT

the only rules i'm laying down for the drawings are: the character(s) should be your fav comic book/movie/tv/video game superheroes or supervillains. unlike project: rooftop, this sketch doesn't have to be a redesign (but it can if you want it to be!). don't make your fellow basementers look bad by spending ten hours on your pic! it's all about the raw energy of a doodle or sketch. feel free to submit as many as you want. once this is all done, i'm gonna compile the sketches into a zine and i'll mail/give everyone something like 15 copies a piece.

652264279@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 8:30pm PDT

Niiice.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:45am PDT

i like to paste in my new pic, position it, and then i select the previous pic (in this case, ALF) to get the exact shape for the new one. CRTL+J and BAM! you're done.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 8, 2015 at 11:44am PDT

here's what i use

I mean, no I did not pick them up and YES I'd love the codes, thx!!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 3, 2012 at 3:52am PDT

Y-Y..... YESSSS!! PLS!!!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardFriday, November 2, 2012 at 8:08pm PDT

Did you pick up Avenging Spider-Man, and if not, do you want the Digital Codes for the Hynpo-Hustler vs. Deadpool + Spidey issues?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 18, 2012 at 11:51am PDT

Thx!!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, August 18, 2012 at 10:20am PDT

MTML5M3UJMUJ Ultimate X-Men #14 It's the last of them I'm buying, mostly because it ties into some big event, and I'm sure I'll buy this in trade some day. The Wood stuff was definitely getting back on track with the initial couple of Spencer issues that focused on Kitty Pryde and them being on the run. I dig it.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 6, 2012 at 1:55pm PDT

Here. On foot. Can't miss me. Skateboard. Iron man shirt

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, August 6, 2012 at 1:39pm PDT

Sounds good. Will you be in a vehicle or on foot?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 6, 2012 at 1:27pm PDT

yo im heading out. see ya at 5, forbesy and atwoodsy.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:19am PDT

sounds good. see ya then!! 5 pm starbucks on forbes

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:11am PDT

Yeah, good point. I should be able to meet you on Monday then.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:09am PDT

I could do that, but I also feel mega guilty about giving them comics to give to you. I don't mind handing them off to you while you wait for the bus on Monday after work if that works for you.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:04am PDT

Hm, ok. See if Geoff or Wayne or someone would mind throwing them in my subscription bag and I'll grab them with the rest of my comics on Wednesday?

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:03am PDT

Brian Wood's first arc on X-Men wrapped up this week, and I got those issues for you. I'm going out of town for a couple weeks starting this Tuesday, so if you want 'em before I go, I'll have to drop them off either this weekend or on Monday.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 2:40pm PDT

I'll let you know. Anything's appreciated. We're trying to figure out appointments and times and such at the moment.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 1:50pm PDT

Anything I can do to help you out with the vet / cat situation?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 2:08pm PDT

Looping the block now

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 2:05pm PDT

On my way down the hill as we speak.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 1:56pm PDT

Almost there

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 12:06pm PDT

Nah, just meet me on 5th & Atwood, the construction on that hill has traffic all wonky.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 12:05pm PDT

Should we pick you up at your office?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 11:48am PDT

Yeah for sure

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 11:13am PDT

If you wanna give me a lift that'd be cool. Grats on the car.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 11:12am PDT

Yeah I'll definitely have a car. Just got it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 10:37am PDT

there's a good chance i'll have a car if you want a ride there.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 10:36am PDT

Signs point to yes. 5th and Atwood. Gotta catch a bus into town.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 18, 2012 at 9:29am PDT

Today... yes or no??

Nick MarinoMonday, July 16, 2012 at 10:38am PDT

hahahaha no worries. Wednesday then.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, July 16, 2012 at 10:12am PDT

I'm actually not doing good today so I stayed home from work. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 16, 2012 at 9:30am PDT

Okay, got the TMNT book and I'm planning to skate over to Atwood and hand it off to you today at 5! Still good?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:54pm PDT

Works for me. :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:54pm PDT

yeah, actually next Monday i gotta be in Oakland. how about then?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:54pm PDT

lol, ok. Sounds good then. Maybe next wendesday?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:44pm PDT

it was in the stupidest place too. well, i'll have to hand it off to you the next time i'm in oakland, won't make it before five now :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:42pm PDT

hahaha just found it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 1:41pm PDT

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK i can't find this goddamn TPB!!!! i looked everywhere and it's nowhere to be found.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 11:21am PDT

yep, in front of the starbucks, that's where I snag my bus. :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 11, 2012 at 9:10am PDT

Atwood and Forbes, right?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, July 9, 2012 at 5:56am PDT

haha, sorry. Let me reassure you that due to growing up with a lot of '80s movies that I've got a predisposition to find skateboards incredibly cool.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 9, 2012 at 5:41am PDT

FUCK YOU!! See you then.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, July 9, 2012 at 5:32am PDT

A skateboard?! Oh shit, is this the late '80s and nobody told me?! I'll see you on Wednesday! :D

Nick MarinoMonday, July 9, 2012 at 5:31am PDT

Okay, I'm gonna shoot for Wednesday if that's cool with you. 5's a little early for me today. Plus I've gotta be in Oakland for new comics day on Weds AND I should have a new skateboard by then :D

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, July 8, 2012 at 3:48pm PDT

I'm out of work around 5 PM usually, over by Atwood.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 8, 2012 at 2:20pm PDT

Okay, cool. What time do you finish work? I have to be at the Library in Oakland tomorrow night so maybe I could do the hand off then.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, July 8, 2012 at 12:07pm PDT

Oakland would be the best bet. I'm a squirrel hill person. :)

Nick MarinoSunday, July 8, 2012 at 11:01am PDT

Cool. I can't remember -- are you in Bloomfield or Sq Hill? I'm in Bloomfield often but Sq Hill not so much nowadays. I could always hand it off to you in Oakland during your lunch break too.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, July 8, 2012 at 9:10am PDT

I'd maybe be interested in checking out TMNT

Nick MarinoSunday, July 8, 2012 at 6:14am PDT

THX!!!!!!! This is mighty fine of ya :D Lemme trade you something for this. Off the top of my head, I can't remember everything of mine that's up for grabs, but I know I've got: - TMNT v1 (new IDW series, first collection) - Butcher Baker: The Righteous Maker #1-6 - Young Avengers: The Children's Crusade collection

Awesome. I can't wait!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardFriday, June 15, 2012 at 4:27am PDT

Looks like we'll be doing our own site, which should be out around July/August, depending. In the mean time we'll be on TGH, as they at least halfway got their act back together, and then we'll make the jump once our new site is ready.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 14, 2012 at 8:20pm PDT

I'm dying of suspense over here... WHAT ARE YOU GUYS GONNA DO???

Nick MarinoMonday, June 4, 2012 at 9:21am PDT

Coooooooooool! Well you know I'll be following you guys wherever you go <cough>youshouldgowiththeAudioShocker<cough>

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 4, 2012 at 9:02am PDT

I'll run it by the guys, although we've been in the process of jumping ship from TGH for quite some time, we're actually working on a new site and layout and whole new thing, sort of kicking back to that HealingTouch stuff I did forever ago but a lot more professional-ish (or as half-professional as we are at least, lol.)

Nick MarinoMonday, June 4, 2012 at 8:42am PDT

In all seriousness, if you're still having problems with The Game Heroes and you're interested in jumping ship, I'd love to have Yamagato join the AudioShocker. You could still post everything on your own Blip.tv channel and just embed the videos in the podcast blog posts (along with the audio, in its own nifty player!!!). And you know that we already have an audience that's into comics, video games, movies, and webcomics. Plus... NO TECHNICAL HEADACHES!!! Our blog design is definitely simpler than The Game Heroes, but on the plus side *it actually works*!!! That, and our site is built for podcasts and comics. Anyhoo, just wanted to put that offer out there. You know I'm a huge fan of your show and the webcomic, and I hate to see you guys dealing with bullshit that holds up new content. I mean, I know you could just make your own blog, which is cool. But I thought I'd offer you a spot on the AudioShocker since its already got the audience and the infrastructure. Plus, we're don't have any podcasts scheduled for Thursdays... <ahem>opentimeslot<ahem>. Feel free to say no... but know that the offer is on the table!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 16, 2012 at 9:01pm PDT

Thx for checking! Basically, I was wondering if there was something I missed.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, April 16, 2012 at 8:09pm PDT

Pick a more popular character than Thanos? :) I pretty much came up with exactly what you did using all my t-shirty resources. There were a few of just the Infinity Gauntlet on redbubble and/or zazzle. I mean, you could always go the route of getting something self printed for yourself through Red Bubble or Cafepress or something, but the quality of the print might not be that amazing, and it's usually like 20+ dollars. Also, actual legit printing places (but you may have more trouble due to copyrights), but you'd have to buy like 10 of the shirt anyways... so... unless you want to have a Thanos t-shirt party or something that's probably not the best option either. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but maybe the self-printing website (Redbubble/Zazzle/etc.) route would work to just get something made for yourself real quick and then delete the item so nobody else can buy it so you don't have to worry about copyright stuff.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 16, 2012 at 6:54pm PDT

Link, you're the t-shirt master and I need t-shirt help. I'm trying to find a sweet Thanos shirt... but there are only three things I could dig up that're currently being sold: 1. This ultra-crappy close up on Thanos's face. No thank you. 2. A "WWTD?" shirt that's too corny for me. 3. A Mighty Fine shirt with Thanos wearing the Infinity Gauntlet and making the rock on hand sign. Not bad but not what I'm looking for. I NEED HELP!!!! What do you suggest I do?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 20, 2011 at 10:43am PDT

Yeah, 8 would be great. I'll shoot you and Neal a combined message.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 20, 2011 at 8:44am PDT

I have a dental appointment around 6, so... I'm guessing 8 would work?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, June 18, 2011 at 10:35am PDT

Monday could work a lot better. I'll keep you posted.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 18, 2011 at 9:44am PDT

okay, so are you saying tomorrow night is bad for you? if so, what about monday night?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, June 18, 2011 at 9:36am PDT

This weekend ended up getting a little crazy on me with a bunch of different things all falling on the same day. :-/ Just realized tomorrow is Father's day, because I'm an awesome son like that. We might have to postpone our YIBR recording as I'm not sure what time I'll be back home from going out to dinner or whatever it is my family is planning to do.

619871688@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 9:23pm PST

Well we figured to just be upfront and honest about the video thing. I totally understand somebody being like "This shit is dumb, there's nothing to watch, just give us an MP3." But, the folks at thegameheroes.com built their site around using the blip player for everything, so we had to make our stuff into videos, so it was pretty much a "We'll post the video version, and shortly after we'll post the audio version. If you'd prefer the audio versions for listening to us on the go, feel free to just play the video and mute it or whatever so we get the views/hits/revenue from it." It's worked out fairly well so far. Let me know how it goes for you guys.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 8:40pm PST

that's an interesting way to ask them to do it. i'm gonna give blip a shot starting in a week.

619871688@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 8:21pm PST

Yeah, I mean what we were doing to add some incentive was just some video editing where we'd post a photo relevant to what we were talking about, etc. Earlier I think we just posted up our logo and let it scroll across the screen in a loop animation while the audio played. Some folks were all like "Grr... we want to listen to this on our ipod!" so we also include the audio version but lay it out there as "Hey, if you like us and want to support us, listen to the video version, or at least open it up in a tab and play the video and go about your business so it counts as you listening to it. The video version is the only way we make any money." The fans have been pretty understanding about that.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 3:39pm PST

hmmmmm tempting! i'm thinking about maybe giving it a shot... the only problem is that there's no way in hell i'm gonna do anything interesting on the visual end, so i think the incentive for people is kind of low in that case.

619871688@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 3:04pm PST

TheGameHeroes.com is rolling in the dough with it. YIBR, since we don't rake in 1000+ views per thing we post, aren't Scrooge McDucking it in a pile of gold, but this past year we made 100 bucks (which was then split between the 3 of us) which isn't that bad considering we really didn't do anything extra in order to make that money.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 27, 2010 at 2:54pm PST

how do you like Blip.tv? are you guys making any revenue off of the ads?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, October 22, 2010 at 3:49am PDT

yeah, that's going on till at least the end of this year.

619871688@facebook.comThursday, October 21, 2010 at 1:09pm PDT

I'll FINALLY get you some stuff for Project Basement. I'm going to sit down soon and doodle something out. Is it still going to be "most hated character" or is that theme over?

4801997@facebook.comSunday, March 21, 2010 at 8:17pm PDT

definitely imagining. we had t-shirts. daz was it!

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, March 10, 2010 at 9:07am PST

haha, didn't you have an Audio Shocker banner or sign at the crossover event, or am I imagining?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, March 10, 2010 at 8:59am PST

cheap? no clue. ask the Strumhaus guys. i specialize in lo-fi, non-branded, shock value set-ups. for example, i will have a large inflatable monkey.

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, March 10, 2010 at 8:53am PST

Nick, Any clue where we can get a slick banner made on the cheap for the table at the convention? We just want to have something with our logo printed on it, maybe drape it over the front of the table or somethin'. - Link

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 8:31am PST

sounds good. we'll work something like that out (or maybe have you direct people to Shawn's table for the purchases so that way it's easier for me to keep track of everything since they offered to put my stuff out too!)

619871688@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 8:28am PST

Awesome! That could be great fun. If you have anything that you're selling at the table maybe we can try and leave them available for selling (I promise I won't pocket the money, haha) it's the least we can try to do for letting us use the table in your absence.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 8:17am PST

that sounds about right. in fact, i might just give you my badge at end of day on friday because shawn and i are both going to SPACE now and it looks like we might completely skip Saturday. i dunno why i got this damn Pitt table!!! anyway, i have no idea what Internet is like at the show... i forgot to even look into it. we should plan / announce some sort of crossover podcast thing... i'm pretty sure our table is right next to the Strumhaus table, which they told Shawn he was next to as well (on sat and sun, Steph and Seth will bu running Shawn's table).

619871688@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 5:35am PST

Just to recap, I basically just need to buy admittance for Friday for the con, and then meet with you in some shady alley or parking lot around noonish on Saturday so we can swap identities? What all will be in the vicinity of the table? We're trying to figure out if we can podcast from the con if we can get a laptop (everyone's laptops seem to be busto right now.)

i'm nik-furious on the PS3 network. you?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 12:41pm PST

definitely not distracting. stop by kiva anytime.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 12:10pm PST

Oh. See... it would make more sense if I read the Topic Title, but I just read the message and assumed you meant today, haha. So, yeah, ignore my 2nd message except for the part where my lady is named Cait. Saturdayish is probably going to be spent in South Side since we're going to the Johnathan Colton show around 7 PM. I may stop by and visit you guys on Craig to bullshit and hang out if I won't be distracting you from working on your art.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 12:05pm PST

okay sounds good. i'm not gonna lie - i didn't understand your first message at all except for the maybe calling part. and just in case i wasn't clear in my first one, i'm talking about hanging tomorrow night and not tonight.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 11:53am PST

PS. If you don't receive a call, just assume I'm a no go. The weekend's pretty ridiculous for me so far, I'm running all over the place it seems.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 11:52am PST

Her name's Cait. I'm not sure if I ever properly introduced her. I'll give you a ring sometime around 5 or 6 when I get back to Squirrel Hill. I wouldn't want to just ditch her at the house and tell her to catch a bus, at least not if I want to sleep in a bed tonight.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 11:40am PST

you're invited to come hang at my place if you wanna. shawn and i are meeting up on craig earlier in the day to work on art, and i figure we'll be heading over to my place sometime between 4-6. prob just gonna play some video games, maybe watch a movie too or something like that. feel free to meet us up on craig or just over at my place. and your lady is invited too, of course (sorry i don't remember her name!).

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, December 2, 2009 at 7:01am PST

412-478-3791 would be my cell.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 2, 2009 at 6:17am PST

apparently new books are tomorrow anyway. that means i'll probably be going to the store on friday or maybe saturday. i can always drop them off at your place if i'm up your way too. what's your digits again? if that never works out before the 16th, then i'll just meet you up at Phantom then.

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, December 2, 2009 at 5:39am PST

I can try going to the store around when you are in a few weeks. How does December 16th sound? That way I can stick around a little longer since I planned on going there after work anyways that day. Let me know if that works for you. Otherwise, I can try making a trek down to your place on one of the warmer days.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 2, 2009 at 1:44am PST

i still have Xero and it's already pulled aside for you. the stuff is getting donated this weekend. how do you wanna get the comics? i'll be at the shop tomorrow, but not until around 6-6:30

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 30, 2009 at 1:44pm PST

Hey, I'm digging the stuff you hooked me up with, especially the indy stuff. Did you donate everything already or do you still have that Xero comic? If you still have it I wouldn't mind snagging it, if not, no biggy.

619871688@facebook.comThursday, November 19, 2009 at 2:46pm PST

Darn, bummer. I just read that on DCU, and I'd love to have owned some of it. :D

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 19, 2009 at 12:00pm PST

okay, i'll put you down. I HOPE SOMEONE DOUBLE DIBS! I totally want to see a Spidey throwdown in Marvel vs. Capcom. i have none of the Millar run. SORRY!

619871688@facebook.comThursday, November 19, 2009 at 11:33am PST

I'd like to call dibs on the spidey stuff, or at least have the opportunity to check them out. By any chance do you have Marvel Knights Spider-Man? The Mark Millar run?

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:47am PST

haha, awesome! :D

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:02am PST

oh ho ho! link, your friend eric just messaged me and requested Supes For All Seasons as well. looks like we got our first SHOWDOWN match!!!

619871688@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 8:44am PST

I like the showdown concept! :D I'll call some dibs on Superman for All Seasons, isn't that a Tim Sale & Loeb book? or am I getting my shit confused? Also, I'll call dibs on Y The Last Man now since the Showdown gives some folks the chance to whoop my ass for the comics. :D

619871688@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 11:37am PST

Yeah, it may be longer than a month, but I've seen some Dark Reign stuff on there that's recently happened like Dark Utopia X-Men and such. So... who knows. As for the CW tie-ins, I'll try not to pick through them too much if I can resist. :D

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 11:30am PST

oh man a month or so is better than the six months i thought it took for new stuff to show up! my friend didn't request anything in particular because she's not too familiar with the CW tie-ins. if you didn't want the Spidey stuff, i was gonna slide that to her, but i'll hold that off to the side for you. in terms of the CW stuff i do have, i think it's only the Spidey tie-ins, Black Panther tie-ins, and maybe a few of the FF ones (but not all of the FF ones). i'll put everything off to the side for you, and then i'll give her whatever CW stuff you don't want.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 11:15am PST

As for the DCU thing, yeah I had a promo code too, only available for yesterday. So far I'm enjoying it. My only complaint is that it seems certain things filter in and out of availability as well as the most recent weeks comics take a month or so to end up on the Internet so you end up "behind the times" if you don't buy whats in the stores.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 11:13am PST

I'm interested in a majority of it or at least some of the "meat and potatoes" stories from Civil War. But I primarily want the main comic. Let me know what he might want and I'll let you know what's up. I don't need any Thunderbolts or Runaways/Young Avengers as I own those in TPB. I think what I'm most interested in would probably be Spidey, Iron Man, and Fantastic Four. At least off the top of my head.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 10:47am PST

i actually tried to subscribe to Marvel DCU last night! my friend had a promo code for me, but it was expired. not sure if he's getting another one... how do you like it so far? it looks greatly improved from the original digital comics reader they had back in the day (when the digital stuff was free). a big part of this paper exodus is that i'm switching to digital and the DCU is a great way to still read books. as for Civil War, did you just want the main mini series, or did you want tie-in issues as well? i ask because i have a friend who may be interested in some tie-in stuff, but you called dibs first so i wanted to check. either answer is fine by me.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 10:19am PST

Yeah. I recently subscribed to the Digital Comics thing and they seem to have a nice bit of Secret Invasion stuff, so hopefully I can find those missing pieces of the story in there. :D I may be bringing a friend as well as my gal along on Sunday, so hopefully some more comics are taken off your hands. :D

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 8:17am PST

ooo that sucks. yeah, the last issue is still hanging around my longboxes somewhere, but i assume you want a little more than just the last issues of SI itself.

619871688@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 6:05am PST

Cool, I'll dig around when I get there then. They canceled Secret Invasion Chronicles so I'm left itching for the anti-climatic conclusion now, haha.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 12, 2009 at 1:42pm PST

dibs duly noted. i've actually started a Google document to keep track of all the dibs called so far. in terms of Secret Invasion, I only have the first issue of the mini (which i may have given away) and the last. i have some scattered issues from the tie-ins, but i was doing a lot of online reviews back when that was coming out so i was reading everything as preview PDFs. i think i have the Black Panther issues, though. that was a sweet little three issue thingy.

619871688@facebook.comThursday, November 12, 2009 at 1:24pm PST

Dibs have definitely been called on Hush series and Civil War comics. Possibly some Secret Invasion if you have any of that. Everything else I'll have to see when I get there I guess.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 11:06am PST

hahaha nice!

619871688@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 7:38am PST

haha, it can say Yamagato Industries Business Report. That way people will look at it and be like "What the hell is that? That shit must be important." haha.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 7:36am PST

s'all good. you want me to ask for the listing to say YIBR, Yamagato, or the full name?

619871688@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 10:23pm PST

Yeah, that's 100% cool. I thought I gave you the heads up that we were good to go on that a month or so ago? If not, my apologies.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 1:06pm PST

speaking of comicon, i wanna try and nail down the info. is it cool if i get in touch with them and tell them to make it an audioshocker / YIBR table?

i went to college in pgh, moved to brooklyn, and then came back here. why? i'm not exactly sure... i work in marketing doing web (mostly), radio, and video stuff. being a paralegal looks so tough! i say "looks" cause i know next to nothing about the legal end of the business. how's the not-work part of your life?

1495292011@facebook.comTuesday, November 4, 2008 at 5:51pm PST

Geez, everyone is talking about my pics. Perhaps I've morphed into someone else! And thanks! I'm at a firm as well. In fact tons of people we graduated with are working in law firms doing all kinds of stuff. What do you do there? I am a para-professional/paralegal in the Technical and Intellectual Property practice group (patents). Been there a little over three years now and it is a great company. Why Pittsburgh?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 4, 2008 at 11:52am PST

Hey all - The venue and dates for the weekend expo portion of Pittsburgh's Small Press Festival 2010 have finally been locked down. Our location has moved from the East End (as we'd originally expected) to the North Side (pleasantly unexpected). To be specific, the show is going to be held at AIR on the weekend of September 25-26 from 12-5 each day. For more about our venue, check out the Artists Image Resource website: http://www.artistsimageresource.org/index.html Registration for the show is still pending, but should be opened up soon. I'll shoot everyone a quick message when that happens (don't forget -- tables are only $25). In the meantime, if you have any questions, gimme a shout. - Nick

no! he's whining about stupid stuff like having to go to SPX and NYCC and how he has to draw all these comics in between and blah blah blah. in all seriousness, he's got a pretty busy next two months, so i understand. you going to the library thing tomorrow?

1065368295@facebook.comMonday, May 24, 2010 at 11:49am PDT

I think you're right about it being cancelled. Oh well, hopefully next time.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 24, 2010 at 11:12am PDT

i'll def tell him that. thx for the contact. i was planning to go to sketchy's, but i thought it was cancelled! at least, i know they "cancelled" the Facebook event. i think Shawn messaged Joe Wos about it, but i'm not sure if Joe got back to him...

1065368295@facebook.comMonday, May 24, 2010 at 10:45am PDT

Hey, man -- The editor on the second volume is Jody LeHeup (jleheup@marvel.com). But tell Ross not to say that I gave him this info cause I think that's frowned upon, and it wouldn't be the first time I've done it with this dude (Jody, not Ross I mean). Are you going to the Dr. Sketchy tonight?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 24, 2010 at 8:34am PDT

hey jim -- ross campbell and i were talking about the strange tales stuff from marvel and how a second volume is in the works. he was saying he's interested in trying to get a story in there, but he doesn't know who to contact about it. i remembered from your talk last week that you had something in the first volume, so i was wondering if you know who he should get in touch with.

Hey all - The venue and dates for the weekend expo portion of Pittsburgh's Small Press Festival 2010 have finally been locked down. Our location has moved from the East End (as we'd originally expected) to the North Side (pleasantly unexpected). To be specific, the show is going to be held at AIR on the weekend of September 25-26 from 12-5 each day. For more about our venue, check out the Artists Image Resource website: http://www.artistsimageresource.org/index.html Registration for the show is still pending, but should be opened up soon. I'll shoot everyone a quick message when that happens. (Don't forget -- tables are only $25.) In the meantime, if you have any questions, gimme a shout. - Nick

i saw your new editorial cartoonist - prachi - at the art store today. she happens to be the little cousin of my best friend from college and i gave her some art tips. i also told her about your weaknesses!!! she's coming for you!!!!!!!!!!

14214662@facebook.comSaturday, September 6, 2008 at 11:10am PDT

first of all, what are you doing up at 8:23 am on a SATURDAY?! wakin up early to catch those cartoons? and regarding shannon, i dont believe a word of it. she's a strong and independent female who doesn't need an elham to complete her. no but seriously, im sorry for my lack of correspondence. school, work, you know the deal. i will visit you guys sometime soon. stay strong :) p.s. that picture is horrifying. do u WANT to give me a heart attack?

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 6, 2008 at 5:23am PDT

so wednesday shannon walks into my office (oh yeah, they gave me an office after you left just to try and make me feel better). she's clutching a stack of papers and she looks like she's about to cry. "have... have you, um, heard from elham recently?" she asked. "no, i haven't. i... i just don't KNOW anymore..." i said as a turned away. i wiped a single tear from my left cheek. when i turned back, she was bawling, literally having a breakdown in my doorway. after a few minutes, she composed herself. she stood up and ran full speed out of the building and we haven't heard from her since. you should really call her. she NEEDS you. and oh, by the way.................................................... ............................................................ ...................................................................... ........................................................................ ................................................................................ ..................................................................... .......................................................................... ................................................................ ...................................................................... ................................................................... ............................................................................................ ........................................................................................ .................................................................. .............................................................................................................. ........................................................................................ .................................................................. .............................................................................................................. .................................................................. ........................................................................................

First up, I Dreamt That I Slept With Your Mom Last Night (Oh Wait, That Was Real) a.k.a. Oh Wait. A new DW tune transformed into a classic fast-paced romp about the time Pete shagged your mom. Next up, Muffdive. Another new DW song leaping for classic status as blisteringly hard rock meets XXX true-story lyrics about Nick's love of fur pie. Mmmm it tastes so good I can smell it right now... Thanks to Rotten Twaten, our engineer and producer, for making it possible. Thanks to YOU for making it all worthwhile. And thanks to your mom for making it sexy. Damn, she was good last night. Listen to the songs! Dirty Weekend on MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/dw2k6

Honestly, for some reason, I expected it to be you who'd leave first, and then Trish would end up running the RIC. But I definitely didn't predict the future correctly. I'm doing fine, thx. Still adjusting to the transition from an office job to working from home! If you know any art students that are interested in comics, I can promise them a knowledge-packed internship full of killer experience :) My email is nickmarino@gmail.com -- thx!!!

Regina AndersonWednesday, August 10, 2011 at 7:02am PDT

Hi Nick, Things are great! Thanks for the email! Yes, I know! Big changes for the RIC! It's exciting. Trisha is such a rock star--Pitt is so lucky to have her! YES, I can definitely connect you to WYEP! Alexa Belajac is the person you'd want to talk with first. I can e-introduce you if you pass along the best email for you! How are YOU doing??! All the best, Regina

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 9, 2011 at 4:50pm PDT

WYEP contact - Hey Regina! How's life? I can't believe Trish is leaving!!! I mean, I can... but it was still surprising. Anyway, I'm writing because I'm helping to organize the upcoming Pittsburgh Zine Fair http://www.facebook.com/PghZineFair and we'd love to get in touch with WYEP about possibly getting onto their events calendar / getting the event mentioned on the air, and I know you're always organizing events for WYEP and the RIC, and you're the only person I could think of to ask about WYEP!!! I appreciate any contact you could pass along. THX!!! Nick

Hey, my friend Eric that works in my department here at OSU is playing in Pittsburgh this weekend. You were the only one I could think of that does the band scene, so I thought I would tell you about it and maybe you could get the word out. So i f you know anyone in Pittsburgh who likes indie rock, Eric's playing there on Friday at Gooski’s. The kid I know is the bass player. Their band is called Ease the Medic and they are on myspace if you want to check them out (if you do that too). Let me know if you go! Clarissa

Hi everyone, Hope the new year is treating you well! I recently finished my thesis film, Who is Candy Bernardino? and sent you an invite to become a fan on the film's Facebook page. I thought I'd write you so you knew what the page is about =). Get updates and info on screenings and behind-the-scenes clips, bloopers and other extras. Thanks for supporting me on this amazing journey =) Cheers, Erin

yo man the Amazing Houston Con looks like it was a pretty sweet show! hey i know you're a super busy dude but if you have a few mins and you're interested, i'm looking for pull quotes for my new book. i've got mad respect for you and your work and would be totally thrilled to have a Piskor quote on Holy F*ck. here's the full book: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/holy-f-ck-color-1.pdf i definitely understand if you've got too much on your schedule or you're just not interested, but i wanted to take the chance and ask! thanks.

Ed PiskorWednesday, April 16, 2014 at 2:29pm PDT

No SDCC for me unless they bring me out.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 16, 2014 at 2:09pm PDT

yeah, good point. i didn't even think about that! you gonna be at SDCC in July?

Ed PiskorWednesday, April 16, 2014 at 11:48am PDT

Hey thanks man. I dug that nomination because graffiti is such an important part of hip hop

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 16, 2014 at 11:47am PDT

congrats on your Eisner noms! i was especially stoked to see you in there for lettering.

Ed PiskorWednesday, June 13, 2012 at 10:53am PDT

hahaha Naw I didn't. I prob wouldn't get the chance to go anyhow.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 13, 2012 at 9:42am PDT

Did you ever end up getting an Anthrocon pass from Joe Wos? I just saw some furries at the airport and remembered it's going down this weekend. I WANNA GO!!!

1114668285@facebook.comFriday, October 29, 2010 at 2:43pm PDT

Thanks a lot for the heads up, man. He was talking about this a few months back and it slipped my mind! I appreciate it, Nick. Ed

4801997@facebook.comFriday, October 29, 2010 at 1:55pm PDT

hey dunno if you heard this yet, but i just saw in the post gazette that Sebak has a new weekly show that's running on Weds nights on the main WQED station called "It's Pittsburgh."

4801997@facebook.comThursday, July 15, 2010 at 7:18am PDT

i'll send out a message to all when the reg goes live

1114668285@facebook.comWednesday, July 14, 2010 at 1:32pm PDT

what is the website?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, July 14, 2010 at 1:22pm PDT

hell yeah. in fact, they're still dragging their feet on firming up the date and location, so the registration page w/ the July cutoff you see on their website is actually from last year (cause the show was in mid-july). i told them they should change it but they didn't! anyway, yeah no worries, reg isn't even open yet so you still got some time.

1114668285@facebook.comWednesday, July 14, 2010 at 12:20pm PDT

hey nick. can i still buy a table for that local show in september? Ed

4801997@facebook.com, 64803194@facebook.com
4801997@facebook.comTuesday, August 17, 2010 at 12:43pm PDT

yeah i'll give you a call when i'm on my way home

64803194@facebook.comTuesday, August 17, 2010 at 12:38pm PDT

We'll have a beer but we're not 20 anymore either, heh! If you wanna bus toward us, that's fine, or we can swing by -- just let me know. We're over by Pitt right now, getting lunch. As far as what to do tonight... What's fun or interesting? We've done a decent amount, but we should do dinner and then I'd like to check out some of the stuff you like around town. Lemme know man -- gimme a call.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, August 17, 2010 at 10:34am PDT

yeah, that's good. i'll be ready to roll by around 6:15-6:30. i can also grab the bus towards you guys since i figure getting around town is probably kinda confusing (unless you have a GPS, that is). oh and just so you know, i don't drink anymore (not a moral thing or anything, my stomach just can't take it), but i don't care if anyone else does. anything in particular you two want to do?

64803194@facebook.comTuesday, August 17, 2010 at 10:27am PDT

I dunno, what do you think? We can pick you up when you wanna go, since we have the car here. If you wanna gimme a call when you're done with work, maybe -- we can figure it out then. That work? 585-281-7174

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, August 17, 2010 at 10:08am PDT

so how you wanna work this out for tonight?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 16, 2010 at 10:35am PDT

yeah i'll see if Justique (my GF) is up for it (she might not be because she's getting over a pretty intense illness - almost all better but not quite there yet). i'm sure you can manage to get tix to the Pirates game (shout "GO BUCKOS!" if you wanna seem like a native) cause they're such a sucky team. the stadium is beautiful, though. btw, if you're looking for food downtown, i recommend the Franktuary. i think you'd dig it.

64803194@facebook.comMonday, August 16, 2010 at 9:09am PDT

Hey man, no worries -- we've been checking out shops, neighborhoods, awesome food, etc. Gonna try to go to the Pirates game tonight! We're at the Marriott. Just walked by a comic book store by the strip -- that you, or are you somewhere else nearby? Tomorrow night sounds great! We do have a car here. Room for 4, if you wanna bring your date. Lemme know what works. We're not leaving til Wed morning, so we're up for some fun!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 16, 2010 at 8:42am PDT

OKAY! sorry i didn't lock something down with you yesterday! anyway, let's see... tonight i got this comics conversation thing at the library from 6-7:30ish, and of course i work during the day, but otherwise my schedule is pretty open. i work downtown and probably right next to you. are you in the doubletree or the marriott? we could grab lunch tomorrow (though my lunch break is short and downtown sucks pretty hard) or we could hang tomorrow night (i could show you some of the more fun parts of town... but do you have a car with you? cause i don't own one (though i could always grab a zipcar)). what sort of stuff have you done around town so far?

64803194@facebook.comSunday, August 15, 2010 at 6:18am PDT

We're downtown, by the new hockey arena. Checking out the city -- her job might bring us here in a couple years, so we figured we'd check things out! We're just bummin' around, getting food, doing museums and shopping and such -- tourist crap. So, we're up for whatever -- here til Wednesday.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, August 15, 2010 at 3:29am PDT

awesome! i'm around. what part of town are you in? and when's good for you?

64803194@facebook.comSaturday, August 14, 2010 at 7:53pm PDT

Hey man, my girl and I are visiting Pittsburgh for the next few days. Lemme know if you have some time, we can grab a beer and catch up! Hope all is well. -Zach

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 9, 2010 at 6:42am PDT

i had this amazing pair of sennheisers that i used for years until the cord started shorting out on the right. and i now i do all my production independently and i'm not collaborating much so i don't talk to many other musicians... so i have no idea what types of stuff people use! so huge thx for the tip. i was actually really shocked when i played my latest batch of mixes in my car and they sounded like they were coming from a cave. i've always had the reverse issue in the past (like you were saying, low bass), so i was sorta stunned these had the opposite problem.

64803194@facebook.comMonday, August 9, 2010 at 5:35am PDT

Ouch! That's the opposite problem people usually have with headphones. I had a cheap pair of KOSS headphones for a while -- same issue, pretty much... That's why I went with the AKGs. The 240s are a little pricey, but they make a ton that are between 50-100. Oh damn -- they're 100 bucks right now, not bad. http://www.amazon.com/AKG-Acoustics-K-240-Studio-Headphones/dp/B0001ARCFA

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 9, 2010 at 3:50am PDT

i've got some panasonic rp-htx7's that i bought for my podcasting, and i just assumed they'd be good for mixing. but they ended up being way too low on bass and all my recordings come out with the bass jacked up high and the higher sounds all undermixed. my mixing process is pretty similar to what you suggested. i'd love to use monitors to do the brunt of the work but because i'm in an apartment, i can't turn stuff up that loud so a good pair of headphones need to carry most of the weight for me. thx for the suggestions!

64803194@facebook.comSunday, August 8, 2010 at 9:12pm PDT

Which ones do you have? I have a pair of AKG K240S's that I love. They were like 120 though, but you might catch a sale, or maybe eBay? Gotta use monitors too though, cause headphones are usually more bass-heavy than balanced speakers. I usually use my monitors and headphones to mix, then listen to the song in the car, on my iPod with crappy earbuds, on a boombox, etc. Then use large stereo speakers, about 10 feet away, to master. It's overkill, but stuff usually comes out nice! How've you been, by the way? Dang, all this music talk makes me want to do sone recording. It's been a few months!

that sounds cool! i really like the idea of the digest size... my phones off right now, gimme a call on my home line. 412.271.0542

Hey Toff - Shawn Atkins and I have been working for the past six months on the script for an OGN called Pepper Jones, Adventure Scientist. It's a Blaxploitation meets 70s kung fu meets comic book science story about a particle physicist who gains the power to change her size at will (kinda like Ant-Man or the Atom). Our goal right now is to put together a five-page pitch (along with a cover image and a few character sketches) that we could pitch to Slave Labor Graphics and similar publishers. Shawn and I both really like your art, and we wanted to reach out to you and see if you'd be interested in penciling the pitch (and potentially penciling the whole OGN if it gets picked up by a publisher). The total page count is probably gonna clock in at around 120, but we're talking about digest-size pages with 2-4 panels per page and big action, not some crazy 9-panel grids or anything like that. If you're interested in finding out more, I can email you some of the script/plot, as well as Shawn's character sketches.

i'm doing some comic work and trying to get it published (mostly as a writer, not as artist), i also make lots of music, and have a podcast / blog. a bunch of other stuff too, but i do a lot of projects and forget some of them. definitely let me know when Oje goes digital. i have this image of it in my mind as just being a totally whacked out student film, and i can't wait to find out how it stands up to my memory.

5521043@facebook.comMonday, May 5, 2008 at 8:29pm PDT

Yup, I definitely have the movie, I have both Oje and Dissonance (by Ominous Codpiece Productions, remember that?!). I have both of them on VHS tape, but I don't have them in NYC with me. I actually do video editing as a side business/hobby, just dont have tons of time for it nowadays with my normal work and doing the MBA degree. When I get the movies into a digital file format, I'll let you know. Hope your work is going well, the last I recall, you were doing drawing/comic stuff?

hey i was wondering if you're okay with me running your Shawn from Time Log sketch as next week's Project Basement. i was gonna color it (and, of course, show to you first) before i put it up.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 28, 2009 at 1:42pm PDT

i don't mind you wrote so much... just so much to reply to!!! okay, your hobby sounds awesome. glad it's going well. i have never heard of this Shirt!Woot thing before... i might check it out. since i'm trying to find a school, now is like the time to apply and i'll probably only be doing comics stuff for the next few months though, so no shirtwoot in my immediate future... i can imagine that finance has its ups and downs. you must be good at your job or you wouldn't still have it. tough industry right now. my style, for me, just needs to be more disciplined. i'm lucky in the sense that you can always tell when i've drawn something, but i spent too much time developing that in my youth and not learning enough about form and image composition. I MUST BECOME WELL ROUNDED! you still into manga?

719950096@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 7:23pm PDT

I thiiiiink you just made up the pants thing, but I may have been in a dresses-only phase. Who the heck knows these days? I always looked up to Ross when I was in school.... but I never actually knew him. I don't think I've ever spoken to him. I'm happy he's doing well. I am always excited to see people succeed. I wish I was gutsy enough to have really pursued art as a career... but there's a certain degree of showmanship required that I just can't quite pull off. The main way I do art lately is through my hobby - ridiculously expensive customizable Asian dolls. (I actually own the largest internet forum in the world for that type of doll.) I paint dolls for extra money, both doing private commissions and working for an American company. I've had work in a few doll magazines, including doing a cover earlier this year. It's kind of doofy, but it's fun. :) Though it's a really... weird hobby. Still, it's given me the opportunity to meet a lot of cool people and to learn more about business and marketing. For awhile I was entering the Shirt!Woot derbies every week, but I got turned off by the totally cliquey community. You should try entering the derbies though, your style would be cool for it. I like finance, but it's annoying and somewhat nonsensical at times. People get wrapped up in the news and think that the financial securities industry is this lawless No Man's Land... but in reality, it's probably one of the most tightly regulated industries out there. The regulations are so hard to keep up with! It's totally a man's world, which can be frustrating as well because I kind of grew up to be a bit of a feminist. The office where I work is really stressful on account of the stock market's poor performance, and we've been almost halved in the last year. It's been brutal. If I lose my job, I'm going to go back to school... though I'm not sure for what! What about your art are you dissatisfied with? Looking at your stuff, it looks like you have a solid style... and that's cool. What do you actually want to do with art, career-wise? I think that your personality and sense of humor really comes through your work. I tend to ramble when I write, I hope you don't mind. :) Take care. ~Aimee

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 10:07am PDT

ha! that sounds like a sweet yearbook entry. i hope you stared wearing pants. it's an important cultural tradition, you know. (did you not actually wear pants before, or did i just make that up?) i've actually become fairly tight with ross in the past couple years. he's doing really well in comics, but he'd probably tell you he's struggling if you asked him! i work at a law firm (in marketing) by day and do my creative stuff at night, a lot like you. a bunch of my cartoons are here on facebook if you go to my photo albums. i haven't progressed much as an artist, though, at least not nearly as much as i'd like. within the next year, i plan to quit my day job and go back to school for illustration / comic art full-time.

719950096@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 8:05am PDT

Hi Nick! Sorry not to have friended you back sooner! I am probably what would be considered a "Facebook Jerk." I constantly forget to confirm friends or accept apps... I do still draw, but mostly as a hobby. I went to school for teaching art, but got so disillusioned that I ended up in financial services (investment stuff). What do you do these days? Got any drawings to show? It's weird... I've been looking up people I knew who I admired as artists. Only one seems to have really succeeded (Ross Campbell). I found Catherine Piro's blog and it sounds like she's struggling. I was just thinking of you the other day. I just moved into my first house with a friend, and I was going through all of my old stuff. I found one of my yearbooks, where you had drawn a picture for me and written "Aimee. Please start wearing pants. Nick." ~Aimee

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 6:54am PDT

you still drawing? if so, i'd love to see some of your illustrations!

okay great, just wanted to make sure it made it over to ya. i could definitely use some more copies of 307 whenever you're printing, so gimme a shout about that!

12320278@facebook.comThursday, September 2, 2010 at 10:59am PDT

Hey, Nick, Sorry I didn't reply sooner. The artwork is awesome. I haven't really looked at the dimensions yet, but I plan to lay it out this weekend. I'll let you know. Thanks again, Josh

4801997@facebook.comThursday, September 2, 2010 at 10:47am PDT

hey wazzup didn't hear back from you yet on the art i sent over last week, so i just wanted to make sure you got it! is that format okay? i layout all my stuff w/ the margins built into the document, so it shouldn't need a resize or anything like that. there's a .25" margin on each size (minus a tad when something hangs over the edge of the panel).

Hey all -- Some of you may remember the PGH Small Press Fest from last year. Some of you might not. Last year's show was a fun but very modest gathering of writers and artists (both comics and non-comics... well, mostly non-comics). The group that runs the PGH SPF really wants to ramp things up for 2010. Speaking of that group, I'm one of them now and I'm coordinating everything comics related fpr this year's event. While the show is actually a week's worth of small press events, I think the most important part to the comics community will be the free weekend expo (which I hope to make into as much of a Pittsburgh small press comics show as possible). The exact weekend hasn't been decided yet. Right now, it's looking like either Sept 18-19 or 25-26. The show's location is probably going to be either Oakland or SQ Hill (but not CMU's campus, like it was last year). And the best part -- the exhibitor tables are only $25. If you have any ideas for related events/panels/whatever, shoot me a line. In the meantime, I'll have more details over the course of the next month as the particulars get nailed down.

I still wear family-knit sweaters. Still make friends with the class clown.

Hahahahahahaha!

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 24, 2015 at 11:15am PST

i had this kooky dream last night that you and i were the same ages we are now, but we were taking the same high school classes together??? haha it was weird. there was something strange in it too like your mom made me a sweater and you had to give it to me in class but i kept getting in trouble and the teacher wouldn't let us sit next to each other so i couldn't get the sweater from you.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 13, 2013 at 3:55pm PST

In Long Beach. It's kinda dumb here. Come visit anytime :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 22, 2012 at 4:15pm PDT

Yeah, SF. UGGHHHH. I dunno how you can live there. It's so cold!! You def have to come visit. We can cut an EP!!!!!!!! I understand about the Donkey. That sounds like a real slog to get to the radio station. 2.5 hours? NOT WORTH IT!! That's nuts just to do the radio show. Could you still do the show online? I know it's not the same, but you could still get on the mic and play music, etc. I have hundreds of songs that remind me of a particular person and time! I dunno if I could pick just one. Hmmmmmmm...... oh, wait, remember I did that one call in where i talked about that weird Ventures song that reminded me of my old apartment and specifically the bathroom!! I did say that, right? My call-ins were actually twice as long as I sent you. Most of the time, I'd edit a bunch of stuff out to keep them snappy. So there's a chance I never even sent you that one. THANK YOU for letting me contribute to the Donkey. It was wonderful! So much fun to listen in, always trying to guess when you'd play whatever I sent in and listening to lots of cool music I'd never have heard otherwise. LA because I want to. That's it. No other reason. What else are you up to nowadays?

Deniz CebenoyanTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 10:34pm PDT

NO WAY!! That's crazy about LA!! I want Berit to move there too! I will certainly visit you because SF is a foggy hell hole - just today, I wore a leather jacket, hat, and scarf to work! The future of the donkey is in purgatory! I'm actually DJing a week from this Sunday, in between my friend Aroon's wedding ceremonies! He doesn't know this yet, but I'll be doing an hour's set, most of which will be songs that he likes. It's pretty wild how some songs remind you of not just a particular person, but also a particular person at a particular time. Like I don't even know what he listens to now, but if I hear a single song from the bunch of random ass tunes we cycled through in the fall of 2005, my head just may explode. They are so tightly woven in with a mess of emotions involving graduating college, growing up (hah!), doing all sorts of stuff. Got a song that makes you think of a particular person/time?? Aw man, look at that, you got the ole Dr. Wormwood in me to come out! I gotta say, you've always been a driving force in making my shows so much fun for me to do! Thanks for that! The main issue with having a regular show is that since last winter, I moved to SF proper, and still don't have a car. Getting to Stanford from here on public transportation, or what I like to call "the public tranny", is a 2.5 hour commute... EACH WAY. Killer, right? Especially when it's all of 45 miles away, tops. And that's when trains/buses are running on time. Anyway, I need to get one of them here ve-hic-les. Yargh, and I thought I was growing up back in '05! Why the move to LA?? Sounds awesome, though!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 21, 2012 at 5:51am PDT

is the Donkey coming back in the fall???? also, i'm moving to LA at the end of the year. not that close to you, i know. but closer!! :D

4801433@facebook.comFriday, March 17, 2006 at 10:22am PST

Nick!!! Oh dear, indeed I was planning on coming for Carnival, and I would never miss one of your shows, except the many times I'm sure I've missed one. My certainty of being in Pittsburgh is still, well, uncertain, but if I'm in Pitt I will absolutely positively be there with my futuristic Nick Marino colors on. You still have to teach me how to play the guitar! I still remember our one glorious lesson... how is Scott? Does he have a gmail address? I feel like "yes", but I don't have it, and would like to say hi to him too. You guys were such wonderful hosts, thanks so much, Dan and I had a blast!! How's the bunny?? XO dz

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 6:56pm PST

hey Deez, are you coming back again for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

hey nick, did you ever get in touch with them yet? Almost off for the summer... 3 more days of work!! (Its about time! kids need to go and so do I). We're packing up here and moving to CA. (sf/berkeley area). I need to look for a job this summer but also spend time in NY b/c someone in my family is sick sick sick. How's work going w/ you? Hanging in there? Hope all is well. Busy but getting by here- sorry for the deeeeeeeeeeelayed response.

4805239@facebook.comThursday, June 3, 2010 at 6:25pm PDT

Hey! Some friends in SF we know have a start-up going and have asked me to recommend someone w/ drawing/cartooning skills to freelance some work. One guy currently works at Google and the other is a Stanford grad. They have something sort-of specific in mind and I can give you more details if you're interested. Are you? Should I give your name as a contact? (If so let me know and also tell me what email and/or phone you use these days) Just saw your "kindle" post~ congrats! Lauren

4805239@facebook.comWednesday, February 24, 2010 at 7:03pm PST

awesome. got it! thank you. So the (3rd-5th) ED class I have is all boys. They will love it. I always need some back-up bribery. thanks so much~ enjoy your weekend

4801997@facebook.comMonday, February 22, 2010 at 9:39am PST

4805239@facebook.comSaturday, February 13, 2010 at 6:00pm PST

So...I NEVER get notices of deliveries at the College Park address. If anything has been sent- let me know! I should have said this before but I forgot. Hope you've been enjoying the snow. Also.....now that I think about it, people at work are capable of misplacing things so if it was sent to Riggs rd give me a heads up. Later, Nick. Have a great weekend. If you didn't get to it, no worries at all.

4805239@facebook.comTuesday, January 19, 2010 at 4:03pm PST

hey Nick! you're no slacker --- you're great! thanks!!!! same address- should get there fine (here's my home address as well - 6200 Westchester Park Dr #1806 College Park MD 20740) Also, I found one good site online to make your own comics. The 8th graders started making a newsletter and I tell them it needs comics :) I'll show u the next edition- hilarious. Do you know of any other websites? What is your address by the way? Too many questions- enjoy your evening.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, January 19, 2010 at 10:58am PST

okay so i've been slacking on this but i have a huge box of comics for the kids. still want them? same address?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 7:49am PST

naw, i've worked with kids from all over. i know how they are. hell, i remember how i was. still, no reason for you to get in trouble by giving them fuel to the fire! i've already got a nice little stack of comics going on for you, and i still have a bunch to go thru

4805239@facebook.comSunday, November 15, 2009 at 11:30am PST

Thanks. great! yeah.......I'm sure....any maybe yo'd be surprised how "edgy" some of these kids or teens are! Some of them try so hard to be grown up- it makes me feel young. ha.. later!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, November 13, 2009 at 8:16am PST

just clearing out the closets, and i would love to send some stuff to you for the kids. i will dig thru and find stuff that's all ages (you'd be surprised how edgy most comic books have been since the 1980s). i'll let you know what's up once i find out how much appropriate stuff i have.

4805239@facebook.comThursday, November 12, 2009 at 3:15pm PST

hey Nick, I saw you're giving away comics. I have preK-8th grade classes these days. Are any middle school material? or younger? We're a little desperate for supplies or reading material. If you could send some to me in a box to where I work.... LaSalle Backus Educational Campus 501 Riggs Rd NE Washington DC 20011 I will pay you for any costs and use the comics to bribe them... or do lessons related in class. (standard-based...right...). Want something from India- need to make a trip next week. I haven't seen you forever- how are things going? Are you moving soon or just clearing out your closets? Later Lauren

Well, this girl at that thing must have been pretty fantastic looking then huh? I hope my wit can transcend a facebook email, or that first sentence is gonna make me look like a total narcissist. So, what the hell is up, where are you in the world, and what do you do there? P.S. _ I can still recall the last time I saw you, which was when you signed my yearbook with a little cartoon and a message inside the cartoon character's afro

hahaha yeah you got some real lengthy explanations to compete with here. i think this hated character thing is turning into more of an essay contest than a drawing showcase.

1150803855@facebook.comTuesday, October 19, 2010 at 4:27am PDT

For YOU. I'll do it for you.

1150803855@facebook.comTuesday, October 19, 2010 at 4:26am PDT

Okay, Nick. I'll write up a better "Why I hate the Punisher" explanation.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, October 19, 2010 at 4:06am PDT

that's really the only topic per se. the other stuff is just draw whatever you want, and typically, it's favorite characters. in vol 1, i think i spent most of my time in discussion focusing on the the line work and form and such of the art, talking about how the sketch captures energy or conveys something that a more polished piece might present differently.

706866653@facebook.comMonday, October 18, 2010 at 10:31pm PDT

there... I finally wrote up and mailed my cable pic in for characters I hate. What are the other topics of ProjBasement again?

609323093@facebook.comMonday, October 18, 2010 at 8:08pm PDT

Okay, I've now FINALLY got a character to draw, for reals! Expect it soon! 8^)

4801997@facebook.comSunday, October 10, 2010 at 6:06pm PDT

YES!

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, October 10, 2010 at 5:41pm PDT

As far as hated characters go, you can't ever go wrong with Jar Jar. I'm actually working on my most hated character tonight.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, October 9, 2010 at 8:43pm PDT

hey all -- tomorrow begins our true plunge into the depths of hatred with: http://www.audioshocker.com/2010/10/10/project-basement-jar-jar-binks-by-scott-hedlund (the link won't work until tomorrow morning, BTW...) i meant to post Cable by Wayne Wise but i forgot to solicit his rant ahead of time, so he'll go next week. anyway, i'm emailing partially to let you know that the hate-filled fun kicks off tomorrow BUT ALSO to come beg for your submissions!!! we've got Wayne's Cable... but after that, i'll have to start repeating v2 contributors if i don't get some more submissions from all of you. Mav -- scan yours in! Shawn -- i think you've got something for me, right? give it to me tomorrow! anyway, i know PIX is next weekend, thus keeping most Pittsburgh peeps busy until after the show. but get me stuff soon! i want your hated characters in my inbox at no less than 300 dpi!!! nickmarino@gmail.com and THX!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 4:10am PDT

nice, that's two Cables and counting.

706866653@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 8:59pm PDT

I drew Magik as a character I love and Cable as one I hate. I just haven't gotten around to scanning them yet.

609323093@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 8:57pm PDT

@Dan & Byron: It is SO on now...I'm drawing White Tiger and The White Queen!

719950096@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 6:04pm PDT

I did?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:40pm PDT

@Marcel: yes, Wayne counts. @Dan: UR CHOICES SUCK! but yeah, draw them both. bring it on. there's a certain Blue character i was thinking about drawing anyway... @Aimee: ya know, you sorta already gave me two PB submissions!

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:23pm PDT

@Byron - Good point. I'm sure Nick would let me...he can't stand those characters either.

719950096@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:20pm PDT

I'm definitely in. :) Can't decide who to hate on. Probably going with Jean Grey.

1073845757@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:20pm PDT

@Dan... Why limit yourself. Do 'em both. :)

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:18pm PDT

I'm definitely in for Volume 2. It's going to be a tough choice though, picking between my least favorite characters...hmmm...Black Panther or War Machine? ;)

609323093@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 4:19pm PDT

Consider me a hater, yo'...am I allowed to draw a picture of Wayne? >8^(

774680272@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 3:59pm PDT

Remind me to send you my hate-filled tirade.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 3:56pm PDT

Project Basement v1 has wrapped. This upcoming Saturday, I'll be posting a list of every piece involved in Volume One so you can navigate to each of them individually from a single location. [I'll also be at Pittsburgh's Small Press Fest on the Northside selling kickass copies of the (colorful!) Project Basement v1 sketchbook ashcan!] I want to send out a huge THX to everyone who contributed. I also want to extend the invite to all Volume One contributors to participate in Volume Two, which kicks off this upcoming Sunday with Captain America by Byron Winton. V1 was all about drawing your favorites, and v2 is still about that too. But v2 is also all about drawing your LEAST favorites, so send me beautiful sketches of your most hated characters with an explanation of your hate (you better include your tirade lest you want the audience to assume you love that character). The rules are all the same -- have fun, don't spend too much time on it, and nothing hateful/sexist/ignorant. As of right now, I have art from Byron, Wayne Wise, and myself. I NEED MORE! Wayne was featured towards the end of v1, so it'd be nice to mix it up for a couple weeks before I get to some of the stunning (and hateful!) artwork from the Wise-ster. IF YOU HAVE AWESOME SKETCHES, SEND THEM TO ME! And pass this along to friends. Remember, email art at no less than 300 dpi to nickmarino @ gmail.com

i've been in contact with Paul, and if you'd like i could mention that you have not been paid either. you want me to?

14204668@facebook.comWednesday, December 13, 2006 at 3:31pm PST

Hey! No, I haven't been paid. What's your email gonna say?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, December 13, 2006 at 2:58pm PST

get paid yet? i've emailed Paul from Young Democrats and I can mention to him if you still haven't been paid.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, December 5, 2006 at 10:16am PST

i ended up writing to her on facebook, and i'm waiting to hear back from her. she says they were sent out two weeks ago, but neither you, myself, or kameka got a check. and it is so cold! i'm working on the warm thing. you?

14204668@facebook.comMonday, December 4, 2006 at 9:29pm PST

Hey Nick! How's it going? Stay warm! I haven't heard from Laurel or gotten paid. Have you? Next time I see her, I'll ask!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 27, 2006 at 12:11pm PST

did you ever get paid or hear from laurel?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 14, 2006 at 12:46pm PST

yeah, they never wrote me back about the money either! there will be hell for young democrats if i don't get paid. right now i'm staying busy doing a mix of things. i was working downtown as an admin asst but i got sick of that QUICK and i quit to get more invovlved with art, writing, and music. so i'm searching for great opportunties in those fields while i do a bunch of part-time things (freelance writing, promo jobs, other stuff). other than that i specialize in getting into crazy shit... too much of it sometimes!

14204668@facebook.comMonday, November 13, 2006 at 7:57pm PST

You don't really miss school work! I have this one class that makes me wanna... I don't know. It is so boring. But the teacher tries to be nice. I felt bad because after class I was saying hi to this girl and she was like, how are you? And I'm like, better now. I hope he didn't hear! But what are you doing for work? I checked out some of your pics on the webpage. Your drawings are really cool. If I had an idea and some money, maybe I would commision you to illustrate a children's book. Ha! I went to school and majored in writing. It's not what I focus on now, but on the side I want to write for kids and teens one day. Hmm, we still need that money. Laurel has to get back to me. Talk to you later. ~ Shani

4801997@facebook.comSunday, November 12, 2006 at 12:12pm PST

hah! i wish i spent my time worrying about school work. i was just missing it the other day. it seems so bad at the time but really it's a pleasure compared to worrying about work. (yeah they basically dropped us off with lit and said "go for it!")

14204668@facebook.comSunday, November 12, 2006 at 8:30am PST

Wow, that sounds like not the best run operation huh? Did they ever tell you what to do? Or where they like, hey, here's the literature, see ya! At least they didn't drop your guys off anywhere alone. But I know it was raining that night. Too bad. Hopefully next election day will be sunnier in all ways. I'm glad you got food! I don't know when we're supposed to get paid. I'll ask Laurel. Need some compensation for that intense day. The results were good though. Was your weekend better than the canvassing? I'm happy I got to relax because I just took a test so now I don't have any until after thanksgiving. Must be nice not to worry about school work anymore. See ya! ~ Shani

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 11, 2006 at 6:01pm PST

oh the rest of the canvassing was HORRIBLE! kameka and i went in one of those 12 person vans and got dropped off in some weird ass neighborhood in the middle of nowhere. we finished doing door hangers in a half hour and it was getting dark. we called to have them come pick us up and it took them an hour and a half in the cold pitch black rain to come and get us. really terrible. there was food though... when are we supposed to get paid?

14204668@facebook.comSaturday, November 11, 2006 at 2:36pm PST

Thanks again for the ride. I got there just in time. Of course, the next day, when I'm actually early the kid leaves without me and spend like 40 years looking for her and being worried! How was the rest of the canvassing? Did you get to actually knock on any doors? And did they ever feed you? Haha. Talk to you later. ~ Shani

Scott -- are you gonna be at Phantom on Weds? if so, i'll bring yours. Dan -- you're the enigma, as i have no time for sure that i'll be seeing you next. i could give yours to Scott if you're planning on recording CBP on Thurs. or i could wait and give you yours at Doc Sketchy's next Monday.

832314895@facebook.comTuesday, April 20, 2010 at 7:13pm PDT

A print copy would be cool or a digital copy. Whatever. I'm married now and living in New York City. I work for the grocery store company Trader Joe's and make the artwork for their stores in the region, and I've been doing some freelance work like murals and illustration on the side. I just found your website. It's cool that you and Pete are still up to your old hijinks. I don't even remember most of the story about Stephen Foster but I remember that I had a small part in the video. Good to hear from you, man. I hope all is well. Send me the comic when you get a chance. Jon

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 20, 2010 at 9:35am PDT

sweet. you want a print copy of it or you want me to send you a link to a digital copy when i get it together? me, i've been working in marketing at a PGH law firm for a few years and doing my comics stuff on the side (in hopes of it becoming a career eventually). you?

832314895@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 6:00pm PDT

Sure, man. How have you been? What are you up to these days?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, April 19, 2010 at 4:19pm PDT

sup jon - pete and i made a comic book out of that goofy ass video we filmed back in college about Steven Foster and the the log and yadda yadda. anyway, i was wondering -- do you want a copy of the comic?

They should contact the art institute. I did freelance thru them. Their rate is $75 for the first hour then $50 for each additional hour (per artist). They are trained to do about 8-12 caricature per hour.

609323093@facebook.comMonday, June 21, 2010 at 2:25pm PDT

Got a question for you all: are any of you interested in (or know anyone who might be interested in) a caricature gig in July? A friend at work has a church picnic on July 25th, and is looking for someone. I don't do caricatures (I'm way to slow to deliver what they'll need!), but I'm sure one of my talented friends do! I can find out more info (times & payement) if anyone is interested. Let me know and I'll put you in touch. Thanks! - Marcel

Good day to all UAL lovers, haters, and clueless. I am writing to report that UAL Summit Weekend was absolutely glorious. For the faithful that have been waiting two and a half years since the release of Face Money Pt. 2 I've got good news, UAL CD 3 will shortly be on the internet. It features 17 undeniably awesome tracks ranging from Dirty Clergy to You Get High (in my hot air balloon). Once again the unique flow of Nick Marino aka DJ Shalope aka Nik Furious has combined with the soft, mellow tone of wordsmith Josh Kobylarz aka Kareef aka Dr. Snatch Adams. Ladies hold onto your panties and dudes hold onto your bitches cause UAL is back and better than ever.

No questions yet. I think I might have a subject to write about and I'll try to post it by the end of the week. It'll will concern zombies, plagues, and music that relates to them both (in my own little world) On that note...i'm working on a screen play with a friend of mine here. My post to audioshocker is somewhat inspired by my interest in plagues and his interest in zombies and our mutual interest in nick cave..all of which are major components in the making of our movie. Talk to you soon.

4804181@facebook.comWednesday, June 25, 2008 at 8:34am PDT

sorry, I thought I had replied back to you but realized today that I never did. Yes, I would be interested in doing something like this. Let me know when you have the account set up and we will go from there. I want to see you soon. I've been trying to make plans to travel east but things keep coming up here.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 5, 2008 at 5:12am PDT

there are no rules except to have fun while you do it. way i see it, if it's not fun then there's no reason to do it. the way it would work is i'll set up a posting account for you and whenever you have something you want to post about, you just post! i would probably check in once a week to find out what you posting plans are going to be just so i know. does that sound like something you want to do?

4804181@facebook.comTuesday, June 3, 2008 at 10:11pm PDT

Hmmm...Sounds interesting. Honestly, the only thing that I'm really good at talking about is me. More often than not situations in my life are relative to music/movies/etc...so maybe I can some blogging about that. I don't know if that's what you're looking for, or for me to be more opinionated.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 3, 2008 at 7:25pm PDT

hah! that's great. but the bad news is that the comic show is a no go. it's not the best wasy for me to pitch my stuff. that said, i'll be getting out to chicago at some point soon. as for the blog, it's totally up to you. i've been trying to encourage people to come up with a theme they'd want for a weekly column. but the thing is - this is all for fun. i don't want to limit anyone or inhibit fun in anyway. right now the blog is just neal and i, me posting on comics and neal posting on music / celebrity stuff. would you want a consistent theme or a freeform style thing? also, once i set up the posting account for you, you can post about whatever you want. it's not like i'm going to approve your posts, ya know? here's the blog link...

4804181@facebook.comMonday, June 2, 2008 at 12:27pm PDT

Actually, I would be interested in the blog thing. Will there be particular topics on the table for the blog, or is it whatever is on my mind? Let me know about the comic convention. I would LOVE to meet up with you. And my nephew would love to go, I'm sure. I took him to his first comic book store a couple months ago and his eyes glazed over in delight. hahaha.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 29, 2008 at 5:07am PDT

sounds like you got some good stuff going on. the restaurant thing must be fun. i'm definitely jealous. thanks about the hair. it's way longer. like almost to my nipples (gasp!). i'm going to be in chicago in about a month for the comic book convention. we should try and say hi if you're around. also, i have a question for you: you interested in writing for a blog?

4804181@facebook.comWednesday, May 28, 2008 at 4:39pm PDT

Oh, my darling Nick Marino! Things are good. I just got a residency playing at this restaurant, which is pretty cool. Still working for my dad, though I just started part-time at this music shop. It's keeping me sane. I need a vacation...a change of scenery, most definitely. How are things with you? Has your hair gotten any longer. It looks good, long. Frames your face very nicely. I'm leaving the office now, but I will be in touch. xoxoxo

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 12:07pm PDT

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, March 18, 2006 at 6:50am PST

you know what i think my number did change since graduation. its 4847987753. it would be so great if you came to the show. how is chicago?

4804181@facebook.comFriday, March 17, 2006 at 2:05pm PST

Mos Deff! Yeah, I should be making my flight arrangements soon. I need a vacation pretty bad right now. What better way to relax than carnival, yeah? Has your cell number changed? I tried calling a while ago, but I think it said the number was out of service. Yeah, I would so love to see you perform. Give me a call when you get a chance. 312 513 2500. Talk to you soon.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 7:39pm PST

hey Cheryl, are you coming back for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

For sure! I'll let you know how everything goes :D

Paige ShoemakerThursday, September 11, 2014 at 9:59pm PDT

Totally cool with me. :-) Thanks for keeping me in the loop.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 10, 2014 at 4:44pm PDT

hey shawn and i are interested in selling a digital collected version of time log on this site: https://www.comixology.com/ that cool with you? this would be the original time log one-shot comic book plus the webcomic. the % split we're thinking of for any profits would be 25% pete, 25% shawn, 25% me, 12.5% justique, and 12.5% you. frankly, i don't expect us to sell many copies based on the way my other self-published stuff has sold digitally, but we think it would at least be nice to have it all collected in one place and available!

Nick MarinoMonday, October 31, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

IIINNNKKSSSSS!!! Unless I get a page from you by tomorrow afternoon, we're gonna have to skip another week, which Shawn and I really don't want to do. I'm glad to print it out and even bring it to you, but I need to know what's up! Honestly, I'm not willing to skip any more weeks. I'm super ready to be done with the Time Log webcomic and we're only three pages away from being finished. If you don't think you have the time or you're just burned out, that's okay. But I need to know so we can have somebody else ink it (probably Shawn).

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:56pm PDT

PERFECT!!!!

Paige ShoemakerWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:43pm PDT

How's 6.10?

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:39pm PDT

Thx! You're a life saver. What time?

Paige ShoemakerWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:37pm PDT

I'm at presby, but I can hit up your place on the way. Not to far out of my way!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:30pm PDT

Where is work for you right now? Shadyside hospital? Maybe I could meet you over there or something like that. So that way you don't have to go out of your way. What works best for you? I'm so hopelessly behind today!!!! OH LIFE!!!

Paige ShoemakerWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 1:14pm PDT

Sure! I'll be leaving some time around 6ish. But I'll be home until then! Unless you want me to pick them up on my way to work. Let me know!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 6:33am PDT

I'll definitely have them ready to drop off today. But I wanna make sure I stop by when the time is good for you! I probably won't have them ready until after 3 PM today... is that okay?

Paige ShoemakerTuesday, September 20, 2011 at 10:45am PDT

Nick! I am so sorry to hear about your loss. And about all the other crazy things in your life! So, You can drop them by whenever, or I can make a trip out to my parents to print them quickly and ink them. Let me know what works for you. I work Wed and Thurs nights, but I can work around my work schedule to get them done quickly. If you don't want me to print them, we are home during the day and Seth leaves for work around 4 and I leave around 6. Paige

Nick MarinoMonday, September 19, 2011 at 6:54pm PDT

OMG I fell so fucking far behind it's ridiculous (my grandma died about a week ago when i was on vacation, and i got a ridiculous cold last week... it was nuts... and now we have the wedding. AHHH!!). Anyway, I have the pencils from Shawn... BUT I have jury duty tomorrow!!! I'll be printing out the blue line art for you either tomorrow night or early Wednesday. When can I bring it to you and/or Seth?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 8, 2011 at 6:04am PDT

TIME LOG UPDATE!!! I hope you've been enjoying your Time Log vacation. I will have new Time Log pencils for you next week! Unfortunately, there won't be as much lead time on the inks as I'd hoped, and I'm super sorry about that!!! But I think the Time Log break went for a bit longer than I'd initially quoted, so hopefully that makes up for it :) Anyway, I'm going to be printing out the blue line art for you to make things easier on you. I think the deadline for the first strip is going to be five or six days after I give you the art, and the second one will be due a little bit after that. I'll have a better idea once I get the art from Shawn. Once I have the art in hand, you and I should talk and figure out if those deadlines are too tight and if we need to add a skip week to the schedule. Either way, you'll only have five more strips total to ink and then it'll be DONE!!! YAY!!!!!! I think we're all excited for this to be over :) And the end result is that we get a graphic novel out of it!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 1, 2011 at 12:58pm PDT

Time Log reminder!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2011 at 7:12am PDT

INKS!!!

Sounds good. My email is paige.shoemaker@gmail.com

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 16, 2010 at 10:20am PDT

okay sounds good. i'm gone this weekend anyway so wouldn;t be bugging you then. i'll give ya a buzz after work, maybe round 5:30-5:45ish. what's your email?

847570620@facebook.comWednesday, June 16, 2010 at 9:50am PDT

Nick, Hey. Glad to hear that Time Log is on the way. As a currently unemployed person, I have heaps of time! The only thing that's really on my calendar is a concert this weekend, so Saturday is not a good time to call. Other than that, whenever you are free. I'll put you in my phone so I don't screen your call. Talk to you soon. Paige

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 16, 2010 at 9:47am PDT

hey paige - shawn is already done with the first strip, and he's probably gonna finish up the second one pretty soon. most likely i'll be scanning them in and sending them over to you early next week (at the latest, i'd be scanning and sending them a week from saturday). i've got some details to go over and questions to ask. is there a good time when i could give you a call and talk up some time log stuff? seth gave shawn and i your number over the weekend, so i'm good with that. my digits are 4847987753.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 12:01pm PDT

yeah would be awesome to see you two on Sunday. as for the writing in, its kind of a thing... like its gotta be done! at least on my end, i have no problem saying what i think could be improved, but shawn is more shy about that stuff, ya know. pete and i are aiming to have enough scripted to give shawn stuff to start drawing by june (so about two weeks, i guess). i dunno exactly how fast he'll crank out pages, but i figure he'll have stuff ready for you by a few weeks into june.

847570620@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 11:54am PDT

I'm am totally interested in inking Time Log. I told Shawn that the only thing is you guys need to tell me if I'm not doing something right! And you don't have to write me in if you don't want to. :-) Hopefully we'll see you guys this Sunday. The past few weeks have been crazy. Paige

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 10:08am PDT

hey are you still interested in inking Time Log? i ask because if you are, the nature of the story requires that we write you into it.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 11:50am PDT

What up guys - I just got a message from Marcel via Wayne Wise from Phantom. The ToonSeum needs volunteers to help at their KA-BLAM! benefit tomorrow night. It starts at 7PM and goes till around 11PM. It's in the South Side at 3030 Jane Street (near South Side Works). I'm gonna be going out there to help, and I know they need more volunteers, so I thought I give you two a shout. If you're interested, you can hit up Harold at 412-915-0619 and tell him I sent you.

Conrad Knapp, Nick Marino
Conrad KnappSunday, March 8, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

Is your number still 484-798-7753?

Conrad KnappSunday, November 23, 2014 at 12:43pm PST

You guys in town for thanksgiving?

Conrad KnappSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 3:34pm PDT

We are doing some posters for lions gate and banners for Disney. Some other stuff.

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 2:17pm PDT

cool, i'm sure lily is a ton of fun. what kind of stuff for comic-con? my next free time is probably mid-august.

Conrad KnappSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 1:06pm PDT

Actually we are producing a bunch of stuff for comicon. Other than that just hanging, running after Lily. When you guys free next?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 12:38pm PDT

haha yes I see you were right in there before the stroke of midnight. just got back from Texas on thurs. preparing for San Diego Comic-Con next weekend. whatchu up to?

Conrad KnappSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 11:53am PDT

I message before midnight! Well happy b day yesterday, what have you guys been up to?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 19, 2014 at 8:42am PDT

close. it was yesterday.

Conrad KnappFriday, July 18, 2014 at 11:57pm PDT

Isn't it your big b day today?

Conrad KnappWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 8:18pm PDT

Fine we can make bread while you here if you really want!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 14, 2014 at 10:33am PDT

Conrad KnappTuesday, May 13, 2014 at 11:31pm PDT

First off how's it going? Hopefully you guys are still loving the LB. We need to get together soon, something. I know you stopped the podcasts, but I think we have to finish the AFI list, even if it is to just document it for our own sake. I would REALLY have to get Karen's approval on this, but what if you guys came up and we did an all day movie session and try to knock a big dent into the balance if not finish it? Would you be interested? Well either way let me know how things are going with you two, seems like we haven't talked in forever! Hope all is well

Conrad KnappTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 5:25pm PST

She is a little cooky, yeah it reads pretty weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 8:54am PST

hehehe yeah i could see she was FB friends with the both of you. Facebook normally auto-links people's names but however she did it, she didn't auto-link him so her comment just looks especially crazy! also, she commented on the photo saying it's family friendly? ha

Conrad KnappTuesday, December 3, 2013 at 7:12am PST

It was weird to see Veronica comment on your post, I am thinking because my sister liked it. She is my cousin and I believe her husbands name is Ryan, so she was trying to link him to your post, does Facebook tell you the link between people like MySpace did? Or maybe it was Friendster?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 6:54am PDT

i hope he disappeared on purpose and not for any other reason.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 6:53am PDT

hmmmm. yeah, that sucks.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 6:51am PDT

no!!! i'll go look right now...

Conrad KnappTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 6:50am PDT

Have you seen this Josiah post about him being missing?

Conrad KnappSunday, June 30, 2013 at 10:24pm PDT

A little bit awhile ago, I don't even know if they would take the time to hangout with us, who knows

Nick MarinoSunday, June 30, 2013 at 7:28pm PDT

yeah, that sounds right. we should do that, for sure. they seem like such an odd couple. have you read up on that studio? it's so posh.

Conrad KnappFriday, June 28, 2013 at 10:13am PDT

No, but I believe his recording studio is in Hollywood hills

Nick MarinoFriday, June 28, 2013 at 7:41am PDT

do u know what part of town they live in?

Conrad KnappFriday, June 28, 2013 at 7:06am PDT

For some reason, looking at their profiles I feel they would be too cool for us...

Nick MarinoFriday, June 28, 2013 at 7:02am PDT

hahaha yeah that occurred to me around the time i moved and then i forgot. we should, though i have no idea what i'd talk about with them.

Conrad KnappThursday, June 27, 2013 at 10:57pm PDT

Dude, I totally forgot, now that you are here we should hangout with Krista and Jake

Conrad KnappWednesday, May 8, 2013 at 8:44am PDT

I don't know, maybe I put in an end date by accident?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 8, 2013 at 5:48am PDT

okay, Star Wars is in the AFI Dropbox. and i need to get All About Eve and Some Like It Hot from you!! also... why does your FB profile say "former" account manager??!?!?!?!?!

Conrad KnappMonday, May 6, 2013 at 10:34pm PDT

we can sure try

Nick MarinoMonday, May 6, 2013 at 9:55pm PDT

hahahaha right on track!! how about two weeks?

Conrad KnappMonday, May 6, 2013 at 8:01pm PDT

How's your 2014 shaping up?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 6, 2013 at 2:21pm PDT

you pick the date! i'm down for whenever.

Conrad KnappMonday, May 6, 2013 at 1:35pm PDT

Sure, so when do I have to watch 3.5 movies by?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 6, 2013 at 8:21am PDT

k, so we've got African Queen, All About Eve, Star Wars, and Some Like It Hot, right?

Conrad KnappMonday, May 6, 2013 at 8:03am PDT

I have been half way though that movie since a month ago, but figured I would re start this conversation

Nick MarinoMonday, May 6, 2013 at 7:25am PDT

nice! i haven't... but i'll start watching that one and i'll put Star Wars in the dropbox later today.

Conrad KnappSunday, May 5, 2013 at 10:21pm PDT

Watched any AFI recently? I am half way through the African Queen

Nick MarinoSunday, November 4, 2012 at 2:40pm PST

okay, i'll watch that too.

Conrad KnappSunday, November 4, 2012 at 2:36pm PST

The general, silent movie only about 1:15 so it's not long

Nick MarinoSunday, November 4, 2012 at 9:32am PST

5:30 your time is great. i've watched Chinatown, Cuckoo's Nest, and special surprise movie. i'll watch Psycho later. any other ones?

Conrad KnappSunday, November 4, 2012 at 9:19am PST

If we can do it later in the day that would work, we are running errands and then house work, would 5:30 my time work? Or is it too late?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 4, 2012 at 9:14am PST

I'm not Skyping at 2:30 after all, so the day is open. When's good for you?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 2, 2012 at 7:15pm PDT

cooooooooooooool. i'll be skyping at some point in the afternoon with an artist i'm working with who lives in Sweden. generally we start around 2:30 my time and go for an hour or so. otherwise, my day is open.

Conrad KnappFriday, November 2, 2012 at 4:56pm PDT

Let's try it

Nick MarinoFriday, November 2, 2012 at 1:42pm PDT

Wanna record on Sunday?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 1, 2012 at 8:47pm PDT

hahaha oh no!! well it's streaming on Netflix now so you can watch it there.

Conrad KnappThursday, November 1, 2012 at 6:23pm PDT

Yeah and Chinatown was the same way, cut off the last 10 min, had to read it on Wikipedia

Nick MarinoThursday, November 1, 2012 at 3:04pm PDT

i just realized that i didn't receive all of psycho!! or any of it, actually. it never downloaded :(

Conrad KnappThursday, November 1, 2012 at 2:12pm PDT

Yeah, let's set it up

Nick MarinoThursday, November 1, 2012 at 2:05pm PDT

DAAAAMN! I'm going in the bedroom right now and putting these movies on so we can podcast this weekend.

Conrad KnappThursday, November 1, 2012 at 2:02pm PDT

Just finished Chinatown and psycho

Nick MarinoThursday, November 1, 2012 at 9:36am PDT

NICEEEEEEEE. I gotta watch it still. Have you knocked out any other ones yet?

Conrad KnappTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 11:03am PDT

One flew over the coocoo's nest WATCHED

Nick MarinoThursday, July 5, 2012 at 6:17pm PDT

Whoa. That one website that reviewed all of them with full blog posts... they just finished a couple of months ago!!! We should invite them onto an episode :D

Conrad KnappMonday, April 9, 2012 at 9:31pm PDT

Sounds good, Karen and I have a dr appt at 4, but you should get up here before that to miss the traffic and you can hangout at the house or drive around the area until we are out. Let's do it!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 9, 2012 at 2:47pm PDT

I looked at some dates for my trip to Cali, and the the best way to do it is to fly into San Diego. So I was thinking I could fly in there on the 5th of June, hang for a couple of days, then drive up to LA and come kick it with you for the weekend, and head back down to San Diego for a couple more days before I leave. How does the weekend of June 8-9-10 look for you?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 9, 2012 at 9:02am PST

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so many movies!!! i really wanna record this weekend but i might have to wait until i'm back. the internet isn't so hot here at this hotel. it's super slow.

Conrad KnappThursday, March 8, 2012 at 11:36am PST

The godfather 2, Annie hall, the treasure of Sierra madre, mr smith goes to Washington all watched, can you record this weekend or do you want to wait until you are back in Pitt?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 5, 2012 at 8:44am PST

Nice!!!

I just talked to Justique and she says her friend might be looking to sublet his place for the summer. She's gonna check today.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 10, 2011 at 6:13am PDT

Hahaha Gordon's gardener. Classic. Off the top of my head, I don't know anyone with an open room BUT lemme do some looking around and see what I can find. It's a good time of year because all the college students are gone. How long does he need the room?

Conrad KnappThursday, June 9, 2011 at 9:19pm PDT

Hey my friend from college is working on the batman movie, I told him about you looking to be in, he said maybe you could be comish gordons Gardner. But he may actually be looking for a room to rent know anyone?

i could give it a shot. how many students does she have? i actually gave my scanner away, so everything would have to be digital. i'm only working my tablet now.

100000176762369@facebook.comSunday, October 25, 2009 at 6:45pm PDT

Hey dude, I was thinking it might be cool to give Karen's students something cool at the end of the school year and thought of you drawing charactures. What do you think? I was figuring we could send you a picture of us and you do one as a test to see how long each one would take and how intense it is, cuz we could pay you for each one, is it easier to do it digital or scan it in at the end? Well let's talk about it and let me know if it's even a plausable idea -Conrad

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, October 17, 2009 at 10:57am PDT

yo i never heard from your photographer about the drawing thing, but if she needs an illustrator and doesn't dig my stuff, my friend (who's WAY better than i am) is looking for freelance art gigs right now. thx!

Do just accept anyone? I kinda was then Jen brand from highschool asked me but I don't really want to is that wrong?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 4, 2009 at 6:57am PDT

nah i didn;t have to... but maybe cause you use your phone? i dunno, i've never heard of that. my policy is if i know someone then i "friend" them (unless i hate them or don't want them to see what i'm up to). the beauty of your profile right now is that it contains absolutely no information whatsoever so it's pretty private. i'm doing good. looking forward to the long weekend. you?

dude I don't even know where to start, did you have to confirm your account by giving them your phone number? I don't know if I want to do that. Well I don't know how much I want to get into this, I think if I start putting up pictures and stuff I don't know I might be over it. And I found all these people I want to know what they are doing, but I don't want to be their friend...and I don't want to type in "how I'm feeling"....So how you doing?

100000176762369@facebook.comThursday, September 3, 2009 at 10:52am PDT

What's your shoe size, I want to order. I will get the suit this weekend and try everything one to see how it looks.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 6:10pm PDT

well i'd fucking love to see it whenever you start working on it!!! that's a great domain name and would be perfect for the kind of thing you're talking about it.

Jeremy CancekoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 4:23pm PDT

ahh nice! times like that when i wish i was back in socal, heh. but the northwest has been pretty awesome so far. keep me posted if you make your way to ECCC, i'll be going for sure, it's a good show but it too gets crowded and sell outs faster and faster each year. it's a good scene overall tho, haha... i'm always bouncing off ideas for side projects with friends, and i've been meaning to get something just for me off the ground. toying the idea of a storyboard/film journal-- mostly just for my own reference trying to make it educational, studying storyboard art and sequetial storytelling... i still have that "sequentially yours" domain name too and thinking using that for it, haha.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 3:09pm PDT

thanks!!!! i'm doing a couple of shows in the LA area in the fall, nothing planned beyond that right now. but i hear amazing things about Emerald City so maybe i'll make it up your way for the 2016 ECCC! i dunno about SDCC next year... it's just so fucking expensive. i think it ultimately depends on what kind of books i have getting published this time next year.

Jeremy CancekoMonday, July 6, 2015 at 2:42pm PDT

just want to wish you a good time in SD, dude. really wish i was there to catch up... any other conventions you plan on hitting up for the rest of the year? if all goes well, think you'll do SDCC next year? i'm pretty set to go then, it's been so long. though conventions in general are just getting crazier and crazier...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 7:27pm PDT

so i totally understand what you're saying!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 7:27pm PDT

the whole thing is such a hassle. halfway into all of it i was like "why am i doing this?!?!?"

Jeremy CancekoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 4:00pm PDT

most of is just planning, haven't been able to set some time to travel and i didn't register for a badge... my girlfriend and i need to apply for some professional ones.

Jeremy CancekoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:59pm PDT

daaaah i wish... sadly i am not. saw that you'll be at a booth and have a panel, that's awesome!

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:23pm PDT

are ya going to SDCC?

4803839@facebook.comThursday, May 21, 2009 at 1:35pm PDT

hiya nick, yeah! i'd be down for doing a top 9 or a few. let me sit on it and think of some ideas, or if you have anything in mind, let me know!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 21, 2009 at 7:34am PDT

hey jer - just thought i'd drop you a line to see if you're still interested in guesting a Top 9 at some point.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 26, 2009 at 6:54am PDT

here's that spidey article i was talking about

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, March 24, 2009 at 1:01pm PDT

anytime you want! please feel free to contribute. to answer part of you original message, i have been watching spectacular spidey and i just downloaded the 2nd season over the weekend (i wanted to wait until it was finished). i actually have a post going up about it on thursday this week. my pull list... damn thing keeps changing! i really want to get into marvel's digital service because it would save me so much damn money. but i do the majority of my reading on the bus to and from work, so i couldn't really take advantage of their digital thing. my main books that i'm really into right now are: Avengers: The Initiative X-Men: Legacy Tales of the TMNT Marvel Adventures Avengers i've been getting into a wide range of mini series lately. i loved the Terra and Vixen books from DC. i'm enjoying Mysterius right now (though it might get dropped). i was reading Anna Mercury when that was out. i seem to always fall for books that get canceled. i put Spider-Girl on my pull list and it got canceled a month later. i got REALLY into Marvel Adventures Iron Man and Hulk and both got the axe. BTW if you ever make it to Target, you should totally check out the kids books section where they have these awesome Marvel collections stashed away. they sell for $6 a piece... or maybe it's $5... and you get four issues inside. that's at least half of the comic shop price. some of them reprint incredible stuff like the Marvel Adventures Hulk, Iron Man, and Super Heroes books. i got this other one that was a great Silver Surfer themed book with all sorts of sweet reprints in it. my big thing, though, lately, has been to give my comic shop a backissue wishlist of a run on a title from the 80s or 90s. they sell me the issues for $1 a piece, and i end up getting an awesome deal and some great comics. last year, i did that with the Peter David run on Aquaman and the War Machine solo series. this year, i got a huge chunk of Iron Man issues including Armor Wars and the original War Machine intro and those have been great stories. i think i'm gonna try and do that more in the future because i get more comics for less $$$.

4803839@facebook.comTuesday, March 24, 2009 at 9:58am PDT

Very awesome. Thanks, man! Keep up the good work, and I'd be happy to participate again in the future. And I'll be sure to come up with a good "Top 9"...!

4803839@facebook.comWednesday, March 18, 2009 at 3:53pm PDT

haha, no worries, man. i'm the one to say thanks for all the shout outs, haha. and i'm glad to help out in any way.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, March 18, 2009 at 2:29pm PDT

alright the blog post is done and it looks great!!! i'll send you a link when it publishes tomorrow morning. i'll also send you my long-overdue response!

4803839@facebook.comFriday, March 13, 2009 at 2:09pm PDT

Hmm, I tend to use one of the cartoon avatars I made. You can choose from: Normal: http://cuporobots.com/misc/avatars/Jer-ABC_300_wh.png Zombie: http://cuporobots.com/misc/avatars/Jer-Zombie.png I'm starting to make a collectino of them. Haha

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 12, 2009 at 10:07am PDT

okay i will pimp shelfworthy for you (and fix the grammar!!!). what should i use for a pic (be it a pic of you or a piece of art you think i should use)?

4803839@facebook.comThursday, March 12, 2009 at 8:15am PDT

Sure you can turn it into a blog post. Please fix any grammatical errors you see, if that's not too much to ask, haha! I just started catching up on your blog and podcast, I feel bad that I haven't been keeping up with Audioshocker before! I will definitely start reading the site on a regular basis. I guess the only thing I would like do a plug for is Shelfworthy.com, a new startup me and some CMU buddies are working on. I still have my portfolio, Canceko.com, but it's two years out-of-date and it's going to go through an overhaul soon enough...! I will definitely let you know more projects I'm working on. Thanks, man!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 12, 2009 at 6:52am PDT

JER! awesome response! so extensive! it gave me an idea: would you be down with me turning your message into a blog post something along the lines of "profiles in reading: jeremy canceko"? basically, the post would be your response to me but i could write a short few sentences at the top pimping your sites / projects you want me to mention. whatcha think??!!

4803839@facebook.comWednesday, March 11, 2009 at 9:00pm PDT

Hiya Nick! Let's see, I consider myself a Wednesday guy for the most part. Like, I have subscriptions and try to go at least once a month to pick 'em up. In general, I've been cutting back on a bunch of titles that I used to read and just focus on particular writers. I read a lot of titles from Brian K. Vaughan, Brian Bendis, Mark Millar, and Robert Kirkman. And then I've been keeping up with some Ed Brubaker, Geoff Johns, and Grant Morrison runs. That pretty much covers most of my Marvel and DC stuff, though there are some gems in there, such as Captain Britain, Patsy Walker, and Ambush Bug, that I dig. I'm also a Buffy fan, so I keep up with Season 8 and Angel. I try and read as much indie stuff as I can, I'm a huge AdHouse Books and Oni Press fan. I do read a lot of anthologies like Flight, SPX, and Mome, when I have the time. Now I'm just rambling, haha. But I guess I just list a few more things: A Top 10 list of comics I do not miss no matter what (fanboys love lists, don't they ;) (no particular order) 1. Ultimate Spider-Man 2. Scott Pilgrim (the most recent volume is great, got me inspired to go back and read all the other volumes again, haha) 3. Invincible 4. The Umbrella Academy (this was a title that I was really looking forward to before it came out, and it totally exceeded my expectations) 5. Fables + Jack of Fables 6. Buffy Season 8 7. Wonderful World of Oz (from Marvel, a refreshing adaptation and I love Skottie Young's art- you know me, I'm a big cartoony art kinda guy, haha!) 8. Green Lantern 9. Ex Machina 10. Runaways (though it's been a while, original creators BKV and Adrian Alphona are sorely missed). Hmm, that's what I got from off the top of my head! What are you into these days? Hope all is going well, dude. I still hope for the day when we'll both have time to collaborate on a project! I have been drawing a lot lately, hehe. - jer PS. Not sure if you keep up with animated shows, but The Spectacular Spider-Man is definitely one of the best comic book cartoons out there. Greg Weisman (of Gargoyles fame) is one of main showrunners and that's some quality storytelling right there. I also really liked the Wonder Woman animated DVD that came out recently.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, March 4, 2009 at 12:33pm PST

what comics you been reading lately? you a store every Wednesday guy or just whenever?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 23, 2007 at 9:55am PDT

hey jer, whats going on? have any ideas / thoughts on the spidey thing? right now i've got an artist who's interesting in working on the script i sent you. i'm wondering - if you like the premise enough - if you want to work on a sequel / next installment with the character. i have a few ideas for plot, but i want to know if you have any plot ideas you'd like to try out.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 15, 2007 at 5:42pm PDT

yeah let me know what you're thinking. even if we don't do this in particular together, we could do a sequel to this or something different entirely.

4803839@facebook.comTuesday, May 15, 2007 at 3:22pm PDT

sup man.. just wanna let you know that i like the stuff, haha! hopefully i can free up some time later this week to really get into it. i'll keep you updated for sure, definitely have some ideas in my crazy head. - j

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 6, 2007 at 2:02pm PDT

here's what i'll do - i'll send you my script, plus the link to what inspired it. more info in the email...

4803839@facebook.comFriday, May 4, 2007 at 9:43pm PDT

hahah, dude that sounds right up my ally! letsee.. i just started a new job, but send me whatever you got, even if its just like a treatment or a breakdown and also a timeline on when you need things done; i'll see what i can do good to hear from you dude, been trying to work out stuff myself, redid my personal websites (canceko.com, cuporobots.com) and this video game site im doing with chris drackett is working out well. i always have webcomics on my mind though, hehe

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 3, 2007 at 4:12pm PDT

okay! i got a new comics project i'm working on to help debut a fan comics website. it's only ten pages. all i'll tell you about it are these three words: "japanese" "spider-man" "dirt bike" okay technically that was four words, but three phrases. so... interested???

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 8:30pm PST

GO FOR IT!!! I really had nothing to do with that Pep story anyway, it's all your baby! :D London was not at all like the BBC but still pretty awesome. The weather is like a slightly less cold Pittsburgh, though, which is kinda funny. I got my own ticket out there, mostly cuz Daniel lives in Europe and I thought it might be nice for him to do a signing like that close to home. No worries about the Bastards! HAVE FUN AT THE 3 RIVERS CON!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 5:02am PST

Hey man! I thought I'd ask if it's okay that i letter pep jones so i can have for 3 rivers con. Sorry to jump in like i mean to say is OMG! I'm so happy for all your success. Was London as awesome as those bbc shows did you have to pay for the trip or they fly you out. Just wow! Also i haven't forgotten about lil bastards i would give a reason but i suck (that and I'm working on thundergirl again care to see some pages) well that's it for me again hurray for you and congrats on the milestone on your relationship

Yo so I told you about that anthology kickstarter over on SU the other night. Well we (as in Cynthia and I) were talkin' about doing some music for it and I was wondering if you want to do a song for it.

Shawn AtkinsThursday, January 10, 2013 at 3:17pm PST

i messaged Jessica about our pyramid scheme friend. here's what Jess had to say: Jessica Heberle Hey Nick oh my god pyramid scheme what the fuck. I barely know her and to be honest from what I've seen I'm not participating in the magazine. She heard about me through an acquaintance I barely know and I met with her and got a weird vibe. She keeps pursuing me to help her but between you and me I'm completely not interested. Hmm if I were Shawn I probably wouldn't go the "magazine" is something she has been working on for years so I'm not sure how legitimate it is. If she does start to offer people shady shit I'm going to politely ask her to not attend the meetups. Man a fucking pyramid scheme what the fuck. Jess

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, April 20, 2011 at 1:11pm PDT

Mike O'Neill my fledgling comic company is running a strip at http://www.electricjellyfishcomics.com/ We're also looking for more strips to run if any of you guys are looking for more exposure.

Shawn Atkins March 28 at 11:46am Hi mike i saw your post on facebook page rob granito is a fraud. anyways if your looking for more strips im down for that heres some of my comics here http://workshopthirteen.blogspot.com/ and i look forward to hearing from you workshop 13 workshopthirteen.blogspot.com Share Mike O'Neill March 28 at 12:34pm Report Looks good, I'm liking the Time Log stuff. Right of the bat I want to let you know that I will need to run things by my partner. He'll need to agree to run it, and after that we can talk about the specifics. As for what we have to offer in return, well, we really don't have much. We'll do some publicity via Facebook and Twitter for any of the new strips we run, and place a link on our site to yours. Essentially I'm hoping that that will lead to increased traffic for both of our sites. So let me know what your thoughts on the matter are and I will let you know what we decide when i hear back from my partner. -Mike O

Corey finally wrote back to me after he wrote back to you, and i don't even understand what's going on now. he sort of offered the month of March to just us if we want it, but i'm annoyed trying to work this out with him because he tells me one thing and then does another. you cool with handling things with him from here?

so i was watching ancient aliens and this one was about aliens and Nazis any who they mention a possibility of time traveling Nazis and they traveled in a bell shaped craft if you google nazi bell you get some cool pics also there's a link to Pennsylvania to a ufo crash in kentsburg thought you might find that interesting and useful for the time log laters

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 29, 2010 at 5:41am PDT

just sent out a big ass Time Log email to everyone. and i dig the Shawn sketch! now we just gotta see what Pete says. i was thinking -- remember how i said use the manga pages for this if you want? now i think you SHOULDN'T use those manga pages for Time Log since you already drew the first two strips on the other paper. cause if you switched over to the manga boards now, it would mess up the size of the strip. the manga boards are way wider than the board you used for the first two time log strips (the manga ones are 10" wide i think and the stuff you just used for time log #1-2 is 8.5" -- and both sheets are 14" tall) so i guess we'd wind up with way wider strips if you ever used that paper instead, right? i was just thinking about that so i thought i'd mention it.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, June 28, 2010 at 6:46am PDT

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 11:56am PDT

good ideas. i like the Golden Gate Bridge thing. gives her a chance to grow big and small, potentially. here's the scenario i've worked out for that final fight so far: Dr. Anomaly reveals himself to Pepper, explains how falling into the Bevatron was the best thing that ever happened to him. he saw tachyon particles and knows how to harness them. he's going to make weapons using tachyon technology and sell them to the highest bidder. Pepper says she can't let him do that. they fight and he captures her. he holds her hostage to make her watch the his "little" demonstration of power -- destroying the Golden Gate Bridge (just because it's well-known and close by to the lab). Pepper battles to stop him. maybe we return to this idea that she travel through time (as introduced but not fully explored in the Rutherford thing) and that's the only way she can stop Dr. Anomaly from using his tachyon weapons (because they would work faster than the speed of light so she needs to return to the moment before they were planted to stop him). this gives you a chance to draw the Golden Gate Bridge completely decimated but then still have it intact at the end. maybe the ending is she saves the bridge but he escapes... and the world thinks she's the one who tried to destroy the bridge? i dunno. that's a mess. but maybe there are some usable ideas in there.

1077923989@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 10:49am PDT

maybe it could be a biitter sweet winning with pepper jones like she tries to save ol' doc from the end the battle and fails (course this doesnt mean the end of doc this is a comic he get better ) maybe something with the golden gate bridge or something grand like the fate of the world in the balance or something of a no win scenario possibly . i hope i didnt confuse ya with some the rambles

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 9:08am PDT

okay so i'm working on rounding out the Pepper plot, and i've hit a big snag -- what do we want our ending to be? so far, i've identified a loose five act structure: 1. Pepper's origin and fight against the roach 2. Pepper faces a review board, tries to find evidence Nominy f'ed with her, and ends up on an adventure with Hayes 3. Pepper sneaks into Dr. Nominy's office for more evidence but gets caught; their fights ends with Nominy falling into the Bevatron's core 4. Worried, Pepper tries to search for Nominy in the subatomic world, but ends up in some hijinks with a bunch of amoebas 5. Final fight with Dr. Anomaly BUT five is where things get confusing for me, cause i know we want to have her battle with Nominy but i don't know what we want the ending to be exactly. does she win? does she lose? i dunno!!! i do have a nice explanation worked out for Nominy and tachyon particles and all that, though.

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, April 29, 2010 at 9:21am PDT

yeah ill probably do it tonite or tomorrow

idea for a possible Pepper story: "Journey to the Lost City of Micro-Atlantis!" The reason why no one's been able to locate the fabled underwater kingdom of Atlantis is because the great city is actually smaller than the size of a sea shell!

this might help...

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 4, 2010 at 10:55am PST

yeah agreed! ummm, BTW, i started thinking about a possible showdown between Pepper and this evil scientist. i guess i got a little carried away. anyway, here's what i came up with. it's just an idea about his origin and their potential fight, so let me know if you don't like it or if you think it could be better: Dr. Anatol Nominy is one of the directing scientists of the RAD Lab. While he appears to simply have distaste for Pepper's experiments, it's actually much deeper than that -- Pepper IS his experiment (of sorts). He sabotaged her first large Bevatron experiment and caused her to gain her size-altering ability. He keeps notes on her and monitors her progress. He has plans to do away with her once he's learned all he can learn. DR. ANOMALY ORIGIN AND POTENTIAL THIRD PEPPER ADVENTURE! (takes place sometime after Pep's second adventure, in which she travels to the subatomic world) It's late. Well after most RAD Lab scientists have left for the day. Pepper waits in a dark corner and watches the door of Dr. Nominy's office. She waits and waits until he finally opens the door and walks out, leaving his door open only a crack. Pepper's been suspecting him since he made some very suspicious comments at the review board meeting following her failed experiment (the one that gave her powers). Then, later, she found traces of ionized uranium inside the Bevatron, leading her to believe that her experiment was actually sabotaged! And all the evidence so far points back to Dr. Nominy and his bad attitude toward her work. Pepper shrinks down to the size of a mouse and runs towards the door of Nominy's office. She slips through the crack and grows back to regular size. She frantically searches through his office, tossing papers around and going through files. NOTHING! Nothing, that is, until she spots a tape recorder on his desk. She rewinds the tape back a couple minutes and hits play. "After my observations, Subject 412 continues to provide interesting results. After being exposed to a delicate combination of antiprotons and uranium radiation, she gained the ability to change her size at will -- potentially due to an altered pituitary gland. I've done my best to document the conditions which changed her, but I'm not sure if I can reproduce the exact situation a second time around. However, once I've obtained the blood and DNA samples from her, reproducing the experiment should no longer be an issue. I will simply use her genetic material as a basis for future experimentation and research. This way, I can dispose of the subject before she begins to truly become a problem." Pepper gasps. "That bastard! I'll kill him!" She mutters. "Kill me?" Dr. Nominy questions. Pepper spins around in shock! "How long has he been there?" she wonders. "Well, isn't this a messy situation, Miss Jones?" Nominy says with a smirk. "Dr. Jones to you, and it's gonna get just as messy as I want it to get!" Pepper shouts back. "Now, now, now, young lady. It isn't polite to speaks to your betters in that fashion. Especially not when they possess evidence that could have you fired from the RAD Lab and disgraced in the scientific community!" Nominy says. "What are you talking about? What evidence?" Pepper replies. "You forget, Miss Jones, that I was the supervising lab scientist on the day of your 'experiment.' And the files I have right here say that you were the one who secretly placed an unknown amount of irradiated uranium into the Bevatron. Damning evidence if I've ever seen it..." Nominy retorts, still smug. "I'll get you for this, Nominy! You've used me, not to mention setting my antimatter experimentation back for years!" Pepper yells. "Come now! You never should have been here in the first place. Your kind has no place here at the RAD Lab, anyway." says Nominy. "My kind? MY KIND? What? Do you mean women or black people? Or maybe you mean strong black women!!!" Pepper screams. "So righteous! No dear, I mean particle physicists. The future isn't in elementary particles -- it's in heavy ion experiments. If it were up to you, this lab would be up to its neck in antiprotons and completely broke. No, the future is with high-energy physicists like me. My heavy ion experiments will turn the RAD Lab into the most powerful scientific force in the world! International governments will pay millions -- no, billions -- for my staff to run experiments for them. You do know what we'll be building, right, Miss Jones? Bombs, of course! The RAD Lab will become rich off of devising nuclear weapons for the highest bidders. And, as the visionary leader of the lab, I'll be the most powerful scientist in the world!" Nominy replies. "Bombs? Are you sick, Nominy? You'd sell out the RAD Lab just to get rich by creating death?" Pepper replies. "If we don't do it, someone else will, my dear. And, frankly, the only death you need be concerned about is the death of particle physics!" Nominy shouts back. "You're wrong, Dr. Nominy. It's not going to die --" Pepper shouts as she starts to grow in size, her head now touching the top of the office ceiling, "Particle physics is only going to get bigger!!!" Shifting back to the hallway shot of Dr. Nominy's office door, we see the door flung wide open as Dr. Nominy flies through the air as Pepper. Next, Pepper steps out of the door, now a lumbering giant, mad with the revelations of this day. She's been toyed with and she's not happy! "Did that hurt, Nominy? It's your own fault! You did this to me! You gave me these abilities, and now you're going to feel the full brunt of my powers!!!" After this, the fight can continue to move out of the offices and onto the floor of the Bevatron facility. The two scientists can have a showdown on the Bevatron itself. The mechanism can be accidentally turned on during the fight. Pepper continues to pound on Dr. Nominy until she nearly knocks him into the core of the Bevatron. Realizing that she's let her anger get the better of her, she holds out her hand to save Dr. Nominy from falling into the Bevatron's core. However, Dr. Nominy refuses to grab hold of her hand and falls into the Bevatron. Pepper thinks him dead at her hands. But, in actuality, Nominy has fallen into the atom smasher and actually become a living being composed of impossible particles, Dr. Anomaly!!! His accident's conditions were different than Pepper's -- he fell into the core, which was running at a maxed out speed. Though only traces of uranium were still in the mechanism, it's still enough to hyper-accelerate the antiprotons in the Bevatron nearly to the speed of light. Thus, in his accelerated state, Nominy can perceive tachyon particles, thus becoming the ultimate antihuman... the one and only Dr. Anomaly!

i like thing a lot will this change the layout of the eight pager (meaning should i add a devilish smile or suspicious shadow somewhere or just be cool and leave it as is )

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 4, 2010 at 9:43am PST

okay, i just had an idea that might work as a kinda cool ongoing plot thread for the first few Pepper stories: what if the experiment Pepper's performing in the very first adventure is actually more than it seems? what if... the scientist she runs into on the first page of her story (who ends becoming an antagonist, Dr. Anomaly or whatever we name him) has actually messed with the specifications of Pepper's work and that's why there's a malfunction in the first place! so the whole reason that the Bevatron warning light even comes on in the first place is because that scientist actually unscrewed the bolt from the machine himself! and to top it off... what if he put heavy ion uranium into the Bevatron mechanism right before the expeirment?!?! that could be why he's down on the floor on the in the first place! (even though it just looks like he's there to give Pepper a hard time) this ties in well for two reasons: 1) scientifically speaking, the theory is that colliding matter with antimatter would simply cause the two sets of particles to no longer exist. while there's danger in working with elementary particles, it's nothing like working with heavy ions; and 2) in the early 70s, the RAD Lab transitioned into working with heavy ions (aka radioactive material often used in atomic weapons) instead of working with elementary particles, but they had to upgrade the machinery to do this. what if this Dr. Anomaly antagonist scientist is actually performing an early heavy ion "experiment" by placing the uranium in the Bevatron and making sure that it malfunctions???? Pepper could be his unknowing experiment subject! this ties things together nicely because it gives Pepper an ongoing mystery to solve throughout the course of her adventures (how did i get these powers?), and it gives the readers something to dangle in front of them. so, for example, during Pep's first adventure, maybe she's thinking "how could this have happened? my experiment never should have resulted in anything like this!" and then after her first adventure, when she meets with the heads of the RAD Lab, maybe she can get suspicious after hearing some of the things that the Dr. Anomaly says. then she could go and check the machine and find traces of uranium inside of it, becoming even more suspicious! anyway, it would eventually lead her to a confrontation with this scientist and somehow introduce that he has his own powers... or Pepper could have a battle with him on the Bevatron and somehow cause his abilities, so he becomes the villain because he blames her for causing him to lose touch with humanity!! what do you think?

okay, here's my first shot at the page-by-page action: PAGE BREAKDOWN This is raw and by all means please make it better!!! Especially if it doesn't flow well. PAGE 1 1971. The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, home of the giant Bevatron atom smasher. Pepper Jones, PhD is shouting orders at lab technicians, preparing for her next big experiment. Maybe some sort of reveal shot of Pepper that has her looking all smart and in charge! She runs into one of the RAD Lab's head scientists. Their quick conversation can reveal info about how the Bevatron particle collider is sort of on its way out (and foreshadow the impending structural flaw), but Pepper disagrees and thinks there's still a lot to be learned by the antimatter experiments of the Bevatron. By the end of the page, Pepper is snapping on some goggles and yelling to the staff to get ready to start the experiment. PAGE 2 The experiment begins! Gas is accelerated (maybe hydrogen???) and protons begin to collide with antiprotons. THE MAJESTY OF PARTICLE PHYSICS! Pepper watches on in awe of the developments revealing themselves (I honestly have no idea what kind of monitoring system would be in place... I'm sure it's okay to stretch the truth a bit in this way). BUT... things aren't as dandy and candy as they seem! A bright red warning light begins flashing. Could this mean doom for the grand experiment of Pepper Jones, PhD??? PAGE 3 A lab tech begins yelling to Pepper -- the Bevatron has a structural flaw that could cause the airtight seal to be broken! For the safety of everyone involved, they must attempt to stop the experiment immediately... and even that might not be enough to quell a giant spill of radiation that could consume them all!!! Pepper, furious that her experiment might be cut short and worried about the safety of the RAD Lab staff, leaps out of the safety room and onto the floor of the Bevatron to fix the giant particle collider herself! Her lab assistants call after her as she bravely (and recklessly) leaps onto the Bevatron's floor. PAGE 4 Now, on the ground level of the Bevatron, Pepper races to the site of the structural failure. She climbs up onto the Bevatron itself. finding the loose connection that threatens to derail her grand experiment! Pulling some duct tape out of her pocket, she realizes that she needs something more to hold the two sections together. A bolt has slipped out of its casing, leaving a small but important hole to be filled by another nut and bolt, OR... a bobby pin! She reaches up into her hairdo, pulling out a bobby pin and sending others flying to the floor. Her compressed, styled hair springs out of its confined form and pops into an glorious afro! POP!!! PAGE 5 "Now if I can just..." Pepper fiddles with the open bolt casing and manages to bend her large bobby pin around in a circle, holding together two pieces of the aging Bevatron casing. "I did it!" She pumps her fist in the air or maybe throws a thumbs up to the lab technicians behind the glass. But wait... the machine begins to shake even more, as matter and antimatter collide at a furious rate inside. Pepper grows concerned as she realizes that her quick fix just isn't enough. A sudden realization -- it's going to blow! A glowing crack opens up right where Pepper applied her fix, and antimatter begins to spill out of the Bevatron, with Kirby krackles and light emerging from the thing crevice. PAGE 6 This is it! Pepper's soon-to-be-infamous moment when antimatter courses through her body and ignites her with strange and unusual powers!!! I suggest a shot of Pepper as the anitmatter energy flashes everywhere within the Bevatron's holding room. Maybe even just a full page spread of of her face in profile as the Kirby krackles and light energy enter her head. We could see her eyes wide and mouth agape, spitting out energy and light rays as the antimatter power surge courses through her. PAGE 7 Then black. Maybe just a panel of black. Then another panel of black with Pepper's words on top. "Where am I??" or "Ohhhhh my head is throbbing... What happened?" Things come into focus as Pepper realizes that she's not on the Bevatron anymore. Large walls seem to climb upwards forever and open halls extend further than her line of sight. She stumbles as she tries to walk. She finds a piece of zig-zaggy doubled-over metal (unbeknownst to readers, this is actually Pepper's very own bobby pin!!!). She uses it as a crutch while she walks. As the page closes, Pepper's head turns when she hears a light rumbling noise growing louder and louder, "whump whump whump WHUMP!" "What's the noise?" she says. PAGE 8 The noise grows more and more intense. "WHUMP WHUMP WHUUUMP!!!" It's getting closer to her now. Pepper turns to get away, and WHAM! There is it right in front of her! A giant, hairy, scary cockroach leg!!! This is the final page of our pitch, so it's gotta count!!! Pepper strikes a classic pose, hoisting the huge bobby pin over her shoulder like a giant half bazooka / half battering ram. And what she's defending herself from is fully revealed... an enormous glowing irradiated cockroach, salivating at the mouth, ready to eat Pepper Jones PhD for his afternoon snack!!!!!!! To be continued!!!...

okay, since we've bumped the story up to 1971, it changes things a little bit. i did some more research and i found out that the big glory of the Bevatron had faded by the early 70s. in order to restore its glory, it was connected to the superHILAC and used to test heavy ions through acceleration, which is basically a smaller-scale version of what the CERN particle collider does now when it's trying to test the big bang stuff. i found an article that said the Bevatron turned into the Bevalac in 1974. it appears that the plans were already underway by 1972, so i had an idea for Pepper: everyone at the RAD Lab thinks that colliding protons with antiprotons has reached the end of the line. however, she's a young particle physicist that's the only one who's still excited by the old experiments that were run on the Bevatron. she has some radical theories about how antimatter could be harnessed and researched. no one really believes her around the lab but the machine is slated to be converted for the heavy ion experiments and not being used in the meantime, so they give her free reign to run some experiments. reference and links: http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron/all/1 (TONS of good pics!) http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_2a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_4a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_1a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_6a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_7a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_8a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_9a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_10a.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_8b.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_3b.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_2b.jpg http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/2009/07/bevatron_1b.jpg http://www.fnal.gov/pub/inquiring/timeline/13.html (1950s) http://acs.lbl.gov/ImgLib/COLLECTIONS/BERKELEY-LAB/SEABORG-ARCHIVE/images/97301215.lowres.jpeg (1990s) http://acs.lbl.gov/ImgLib/COLLECTIONS/BERKELEY-LAB/ACCELERATORS/BEVATRON/images/97502169.lowres.jpeg (1950s) http://www.tigerclaws.com/superhilac%20down%20at%2035.htm (????) -- good because it notes that the Bevatron and SuperHILAC were linked in 1974 http://www.berkeleydailyplanet.com/photos/04-05-05/Bevatron.jpg (2005) http://www.flickr.com/photos/berkeleylab/2826515916/sizes/l/ (2005) http://www.symmetrymagazine.org/breaking/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/bevatron-97301117.jpg (2000s) http://www.berkeleycitizen.org/bevatron/bevatron7.html (pics of it being built!)

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 24, 2010 at 12:39pm PST

okay, this might be waaaay too long and not where you want the story to go... but i wrote up a rough draft treatment of the potential plot for our Zuda pitch, at least to have something to work with in terms of story. "Pepper Jones, Adventure Scientist" Zuda tryout story - eight pages Character background and story plot: The year is 1958. Pepper Jones, PhD is a particle scientist, performing experiments with the synchrotron particle accelerator housed at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory -- affectionately nicknamed the RAD Lab -- on the University of California, Berkeley campus. Pepper seeks to discover the true nature of antimatter, and she's hoping to do this through a series of unorthodox experiments performed by smashing protons and antiprotons together with the RAD Lab's large synchrotron, often called the Bevatron. We meet Pepper as she's preparing for her most ambitious experiment yet -- a high-velocity, extended collision of molecular particles that will reveal untold secrets to RAD Lab scientists as matter interacts with antimatter inside the controlled environment in the Bevatron's tubing. After hours of sleepless research and extensive planning, Pepper's experiment begins. The Bevatron is fired up and it begins to accelerate molecules through the use of its large dipole magnets as Dr. Jones watches from behind the safety glass of the RAD Lab's facilities. The synchrotron is accelerating smoothly and everything is on track until a sudden warning light goes off on the maintenance panel. The light indicates a potential flaw in the machinery that could expose all the researchers and technicians in the RAD Lab to the unknown effects of antimatter energy. Without a second thought for her own safety, Pepper darts out onto the main floor of the synchrotron housing. Her lab assistants call out to her, but she's too absorbed with her desire to make sure that the Bevatron holds up long enough to complete the day's groundbreaking experiment. Furiously checking the machine for flaws, Pepper hunts down the cause of the warning light -- two sections of Bevatron tubing that are threatening to separate from each other. She discovers that a loose screw has split in half, causing one section of casing to potentially break its airtight seal with the other section if even the slightest bump or thrust were to vibrate the Bevatron. With only a bobby pin and some duct tape, Pepper tries to prevent any leaks in the machinery. As she pulls out a bobby pin from her hair, all the others scatter to the floor. Not to be distracted, Pepper needs only the single bobby pin to temporarily latch the two Bevatron casing units together until she can get a technician onto the lab floor to apply a more permanent fix. As she reaches for her duct tape to further seal the separating pieces, a seismic wrench is thrown into the works -- an unexpected earthquake begins to shake the building, violently swaying the Bevatron as the experiment continues. Pepper's quick bobby pin save isn't enough to hold the casing together and a hairline break in the airtight seal emerges between the two sections of tubing. In a split-second, antimatter spews forth from the synchrotron, spilling out as surreal waves of altered gas. Pepper gasps in horror at her perfect experiment gone awry and she inhales the antimatter gas in the process, drawing a stream of unstable molecules into her body. The accelerated particles go no further than her sinuses before they begin to affect her body. She screams as the antimatter spreads throughout her head, emanating bizarre waves of sensation from the lower center of her brain where the pituitary gland touches the sinuses. Then everything goes black. Pepper awakens in a strange place. Her body feels woozy but fine. Her her eyes and ears, however, are shocked to find that the familiarity of the RAD Lab has disappeared. The ground is rumbling with heavy vibrations, while the air is shadowed and light appears to be far, far off in the vertical distance. Pepper's clothes have been tattered. Her head begins to throb when she stands up, so she tears off a strip of her lab coat and ties it tight around her cranium. Stumbling around, she finds a large piece of bent metal to brace her weak legs as she walks. That's when a soft scratching noise begins to grow louder. She hears the sound of thick, scraping footsteps against the rocky, gray ground of her new environment. The noise grows louder and louder, accompanied by the creepy hum of some odd living creature. The two sounds blend together and Pepper soon realizes that she's being stalked by something much larger and stranger than herself. Picking up the strangely familiar piece of bent metal, she notices a slick brown roped twisted around the left side. She winds the rope up into large loops and throws the coil over her shoulder. While trying to piece together the puzzle of her location, Pepper has a sudden realization -- this large bent metal pole is no foreign object. It's one of her own bobby pins that fell from her hair as she tried to repair the Bevatron! Reeling from the discovery that she's now smaller in size than a single fire ant, Pepper is forced to deal with an even more immediate issue as the sounds close in and reveal their source... a large cockroach, glowing with antimatter radiation, looming over her and salivating as it prepares to eat Pepper Jones, PhD for an afternoon snack!

most definitely. i'm checking with the PGH SPF people to try and find out the date they wanna have the 2010 show. i mean, SPX i'm sure is a better choice no matter what, i just want to avoid a conflict of interests since i'm helping SPF this year...

wanna do this show in Sept?

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 21, 2010 at 9:34pm PST

okay so i did some more reading and basically this Berkeley thing could work out really well. the primary function of the Bevatron was to collide protons with antiprotons. the antiprotons are essentially antimatter, so that works out well with all your ideas about using antimatter in the story. just a little more backround info -- this Berkeley lab is a US government lab on the grounds of University of California - Berkeley (not Berkeley University). "The Bevatron was built to be energetic enough to create antiprotons, and thus test the hypothesis that every particle has a corresponding anti-particle. The antineutron was discovered" there in the 50s. the lab went by the nickname of the "Rad Lab" in the 50s, so that could be fun to use in the story.

jesus that is expensive as hell shit wadda think we should do just get one or two for are two main books and sell the others though cons and the printing website( i think you can sell them at ka-blam and comixepress )

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 14, 2010 at 7:17am PST

okay bad news on the ISBNs... they're expensive as shit! plus, once you get one, you also have to get a UPC for it as well. basically, to buy 10 ISBNs it would cost us around $250, then it's $25 per barcode or something like that. SHITLOADS OF MONEY. buying an individual ISBN costs $125, so it almost makes sense to buy the pack.far as i can tell you have to buy ISBNs and barcodes based on the ISBNs to really sell your stuff anywhere. PAIN IN THE ASS

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, February 9, 2010 at 9:41am PST

then how bout 50 copies or that to high

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, February 9, 2010 at 9:01am PST

you only want five copies to sell??? i'm taking care of all the costs on it so no worries. just name how many you want. unless this thing goes gangbusters, i'm not planning to go back to the presses on it, so name a figure based on what you think would be good enough to last you at the very least this time next year. for example, i know i've got pitt con, SPACE, the small press fest, and whatever other summer cons i end up attending... at the minimum i'd sell 5 per show i estimate so that's at least 25 plus i'm priting up a bunch to give to friends so that's another 25 plus i want some for the future so i'm already looking at just 100 for myself and that's probably a little low er than i'll actually get for myself.

1077923989@facebook.comTuesday, February 9, 2010 at 8:45am PST

okay... (you probably saw this coming due to my extreme lack of pages) i don't think my Mallard comic is gonna happen for the fill-in. HOWEVER, i've had a secret backup plan for a while now: Gello Apocalypse vs. Super Haters!!! are you down with that? basically, i just don't have the experience and discipline to be comfortable with drawing the full Mallard comic. but i'm totally still down for doing the full the December fill-in. the "Gello Apocalypse vs. Super Haters" idea would be similar to my weekly strip except it would be like a comic book page instead of just the vertical strip i normally (so it would be six panels instead of three). what's the GA schedule right now? Tuesday and Thursday?

i totally forgot to talk to you about next year's SPACE con when we met up on Sunday. so here's my deal - i'm going to split a table with my friend that does the Candy or Medicine minicomics (and the Apt 307 book) that i was selling at the Small Press Fest. are you interested in going out to Columbus for SPACE next year? i figure you would want your own table cause you got so much merch, but we could split a hotel room if you're interested (or at the very least carpool out there). i'm asking now cause if we reserve tables soon we can request to be placed next to each other. what you think? btw, i got one more page to go on the Green-whatever pages i'm inking.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, August 2, 2009 at 7:33am PDT

justique isn't feeling that good today so i think i'm gonna have to skip art. she just started her treatment yesterday so it's kinda tough for her. i'll text you later but i know you're on here all the time.

the tip i had in my blog did work for a while, but it's been dead for a couple of years. i did a pruning of my own groups around that time and i don't have any oldies hanging around anymore! sorry! in fact, i don't even think there's a view that lets a person see the groups they admin. good luck finding an old one!

745768311@facebook.comThursday, November 4, 2010 at 7:27pm PDT

Hey hey Nick. I stumbled upon your blog today while searching for help trying to find a way to create an 'old group'. Not sure why FB went and changed the group format a couple weeks ago...but in my opinion the new layout stinks. I need to create a group using the old format, or...since I can't create and old one...become an admin of one and change it to what I need. I have tried messaging admins of groups that are not active, but have gotten zero responses. Your blog mentions that you became the admin of a few other groups. While I know this post is almost 4 years old...I was wondering if you happen to have any groups rattling around in your pocket that you'd be willing to hand over :) Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Hope all are doing splendidly!!! I'm reaching out to you because of your supreme talent and support of both my little shindig and for the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. Just as last year, I will be having a raffle of local original artwork and am soliciting for such. This year's theme is "Space Oddity". If you wish to create something with that theme in mind, I would be extremely honored. However, if you wish to donate but don't have time to create something new, please peruse your various work and donate a print of something from your past work. This would make me just as giddy!!! Jami Luvfest is being held Friday, December 3 on the Southside. I'd be happy if I could have any submission by Wednesday, December 1. Let me know if you are interested. Also, if you feel you can't participate but know of a talent just starting out, please feel free to forward this to them! I want to support local creativity, even the folks I don't know yet!!!

thanks for including me!

Dan GreenwaldMonday, December 21, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

Nope, looks great!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

Need anything else from me?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 12:51pm PST

Though I read less and less comic books as the years go by, I have the fantastic fortune of getting to read more and more comics by my friends! Books like the insanely ignorant Man Vs Rock and the gorgeously gratifying Hex11 were highlights of my reading this past year, enriched by my experiences getting to know the crafty creators. But my top pick for 2015 is Heart In A Box by my buddy, Kelly Thompson, and her clever collaborator, Meredith McClaren. Published by Dark Horse this summer as digital issues and later in the fall as a physical graphic novel, this is the soul-wrenching story of a young woman with a figuratively fractured cardiac pump on a quest to reclaim its missing pieces. HIAB is one part slice-of-life drama, one part action thriller, and one part spiritual fantasy. I was fortunate to get some peeks at Kelly's process over time and I was already expecting something pretty kickass when the book debuted. But I was blown away by the raw, smart, and moving final product. Nothing else I read in 2015 compelled me as much as this unusual story, which is something ideally suited for the comics medium and definitely worth your dollars (or pounds or pesos or-- whatever, you get the point).

Dan GreenwaldMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:41am PST

Sweet!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:14am PST

Cool, I'll hit ya up with it today. I was just on my social media hiatus when you sent the message. Gonna go on another one too. IT WAS AWESOME!

Dan GreenwaldMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:03am PST

Yeah man, whenever you send one is fine

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:49am PST

YO! I'm down to do one of these. Are you still posting em? (I see you put one up yesterday.)

Dan GreenwaldMonday, December 14, 2015 at 2:25pm PST

As we're nearing the end of 2015, I thought it would be fun to compile a list of "Best Of" for the year and post it on the Comic Book Pitt site. So, if you'd like to participate, the question is, what was your favorite comic of 2015 and why? As far as the "why", it doesn't have to be a full review (unless you really want to), it can just be one or two lines if you like.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

cool

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 2:02pm PDT

k ool

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 27, 2015 at 12:45pm PDT

Yep just a pic lol

Nick MarinoSunday, September 27, 2015 at 12:42pm PDT

got a weird text from you!!! it's just a download button? just wanna make sure it's legit before i d/l it. (maybe it's a photo? i dunno. my phone is weird.)

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:24pm PDT

Cool. PGH is interesting in the way there always seems to be some new comics retail thing to discover. Remember Comic Book Ink that was downtown? Or that manga/anime/comic shop that used to be in Squirrel Hill? Time Tunnel, Half Price Books, etc. So many placed to buy comics in that city!

Dan GreenwaldThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:14pm PDT

Ah I see. I know! It's small, but you can tell they put some money into it. It's not junky, no fucking Magic The Gathering cards, shit like that, just comics and related items.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

I can't believe the South Side has a fucking comic shops now!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

There are decent shops in the LA area, for sure, just not my neck of the woods.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:11pm PDT

It's all about the vibe. It just doesn't do it for me. Very impersonal, weird store organization, lack of community, all of that stuff.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:09pm PDT

Really? That stinks. Are they just generally not indie friendly or is it something else?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

I wish you worked at my comic book store. I would actually go there if you did! The comics retail scene sucks in Long Beach.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:06pm PDT

Yep! It's still fun working there, so I'll keep it as long as I can

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:05pm PDT

Are you still at NDC too?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:04pm PDT

Yeah it pretty much sucks, so I'm looking for another job. Already had some interviews. Dickie, Dickie, Dickie...it's been way too long since he's made an appearance. When things get settled we'll definitely make that happen

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

lemme know.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:01pm PDT

Oh also Dickie Walters sent me an email recently and said he wants to record with you again, so I guess whenever your schedule frees up and you have enough patience stores up to deal with him...

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 8:00pm PDT

Cool. Changing good or changing bad? hahaha

Dan GreenwaldThursday, July 23, 2015 at 7:58pm PDT

Oh it's not a big deal, my job with FedEx has me working weeknights until 9pm, which is kind of late to expect people to wait to record, and I think Scott's been busy. My job situation will probably be changing soon, so I should be back.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 23, 2015 at 7:54pm PDT

So I noticed Jared and Shawn are doing episodes of CBP now. I wanna know how it all went down!!!

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

Thanks! 󾌵

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:39pm PDT

well i'm glad to chat about it anytime! best of luck working it out.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:38pm PDT

Well I appreciate you talking about it with me, like I said, I couldn't think of anyone else who would have the same frame of reference

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:36pm PDT

frankly, i'd love a regular dan and scott show again. that's my fave thing to listen to. but i enjoy jared too when i'm in the mood! he's kinda gruff but he's so enthusiastic, which i think is awesome.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:35pm PDT

i hear ya. it's always so tricky trying to figure this stuff out!

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:34pm PDT

Not at all. I thought about that but again, I can't figure out how to bring it up. I mean, he's not going out of his way to be a jerk or anything but his vibe rubs me the wrong way most of the time

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

is that a crazy idea?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

okay, what about this... you offer Jared his own spinoff show?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

I think back to me and Scott to be honest. I do like Jared but his attitude is never consistent from week to week

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

what would be your perfect recording situation for the future? just back to you and Scott? or keep Jared around BUT ask him to try and reign it in a bit?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Jared can be kind of dickish depending on the day so I don't know how I'd approach him

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:29pm PDT

I don't know. I might talk to Scott, see what he thinks

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

do you feel like you're close enough to tell him?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

He hasn't been as hijacky lately but I remember one show last year he went on for 10-15 min about PIX.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:28pm PDT

but that's irrelevant, really... what's important is how you feel about the process.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

to be honest, i hadn't noticed it recently

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmm that's weird

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Last time we recorded he came with one book to discuss and he barely talked about it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

and it sounds like it would be okay if his diversions didn't hijacks the conversation

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

geeez, yeah, he wants to do some open format thing but you just wanna talk about comics

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:25pm PDT

But he'll start talking about Better Call Saul or the Pirates or PIX when that's in season

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

We definitely want to keep it loose and conversational

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

In that he adheres to no format, not even a loose one

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

In a way yes

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

so basically you feel like he's changing the format of the show?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

It seems like he wants to do his show with Shawn than talk about comics

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

what else?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

yep, i know what you mean

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

He likes to ramble more about shit that is way off center, sometimes he hijacks/monopolizes the show without realizing it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

you feel like you need a change?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

lol mine too sadly

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:19pm PDT

it's a classic combo. jared rocks but he has a totally different vibe.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

my favorite episodes are the you and scott ones!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:18pm PDT

i did another show with a college friend of mine who was insanely unreliable, and eventually he gave up / kinda phoned it in when i put my foot down about recording times and shit

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

and i tried to get rid of him but he begged to stay

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

eventually i quit that show because the co-host was too hard to work with

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

That makes sense. In my case, sometimes I liked it better when it was just me and Scott

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:17pm PDT

the HyperComboCast was a hot mess

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

Neal and I had problems... but we're close, so I just straight up talked to him about it and we tried to make it work

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:16pm PDT

ahhh geezzzz... it depended on the person

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

Hahaha...so what did you do? Just deal with it?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:14pm PDT

that's how i felt about half of my co-hosts

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

at all

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

so not weird

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:13pm PDT

YES

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 30, 2015 at 1:10pm PDT

Hey Nick, I have a weird, sort of podcast-related question, and I can't think of anyone else to ask. Between you and me, in your entire history of podcasting, did you ever invite someone to be part of one of your shows and eventually come to regret it for any reason? I don't mean a one-time guest, but a regular host.

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

k

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

CBP

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

awesome. your email or the CBP email?

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

Yes absolutely!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 21, 2015 at 1:20pm PDT

ooooooooooo 200!!!! can i send you an mp3 message for the episode?!?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 9:35pm PDT

yah, iz goood

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 6:59pm PDT

Can you do 7:00pm Pittsburgh time?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 4:57pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 4:57pm PDT

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 4:25pm PDT

Yep!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 1, 2014 at 4:24pm PDT

still on for 2morra?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 26, 2014 at 9:48am PDT

cool. works for me. thanks!

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 26, 2014 at 9:45am PDT

Approximately 7:00-7:30. I'll let you know when we get closer to Thursday

Nick MarinoFriday, September 26, 2014 at 9:39am PDT

Next Thurs is good for me. What time?

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 26, 2014 at 9:23am PDT

So we usually record on Thursdays now. Would that work for you?

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, May 21, 2013 at 9:00pm PDT

Ha! I don't mind putting the credit in the show notes, but I appreciate you letting me know should I decide not to list it later on. :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 21, 2013 at 1:11pm PDT

you don't have to keep crediting Nik Furious every time you post the podcast if you don't want to!!! i feel like it's up there so many times now that people can find it pretty easy :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 2:21pm PST

hahahaha nice

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 2:14pm PST

I forgot all about it then one day I get an email apologizing for the delay and a confirmation that a book was on the way plus a PDF copy.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 1:57pm PST

hahaha that Filmation book took forever!!! i just checked... we emailed about that 2.5 months ago.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 21, 2013 at 4:57pm PST

3763 E 11th St Apt 102 Long Beach, CA 90804 Thx!!!

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 30, 2012 at 7:30am PDT

Aw thanks man, that's cool. I think we're going to record it this week.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 30, 2012 at 6:51am PDT

what's up with ep. #100? at the very least, i wanna send you an mp3 of congrats for your centennial episode!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 28, 2012 at 9:34am PDT

the only other person i can think of is http://www.facebook.com/HoboInDisguise who doesn't have his own show, but sometimes guests on a video games podcast. oh, and jim dietz. https://twitter.com/#!/yodajones former owner of the Gypsy Cafe (they closed, right?) and podcaster on The Legion of Dudes http://www.hhwlod.com/legion-of-dudes/blog

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, March 28, 2012 at 7:17am PDT

Thanks. If you can, maybe think of any local podcasts I might have forgotten about or not known about. I'm going to share the Google Doc of the list I have so far and if you think of any shows, just add them at the bottom of the list.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 7:47pm PDT

please do!!!! thx so much. and lemme know if there's anything i can for the flyer :D

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 7:08pm PDT

Hey, even though you're going to be at the mini-con, do you mind if I add your shows to the flyer? It will help make it look more diverse and full of content. ;)

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 7:03am PDT

If he's available, why don't we just have Juan on tonight and save the other topic for the next show? I'm sure mini-con talk could easily take up most of the show and I think the transition from one topic to the other would be awkward. That's great about tomorrow, I really appreciate you riding shotgun. By the way, I'm channeling my inner Nick Marino this week; I'm recording new podcasts three days in a row. :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 27, 2012 at 6:37am PDT

I dig that as a topic!!! I talked to Shawn yesterday, and he suggested we bring Juan on to discuss the impromptu MiniCon, which I also like a lot for a topic. I wonder if there's a way to blend all of this.... BTW, I'm definitely down for tomorrow night with Tony.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, March 26, 2012 at 6:18am PDT

Wow, what a small world. That's cool that you're somewhat already acquainted with him. If you can be on the show that would be awesome, but if you can't I understand. LOL, that's fine, I kind of don't want to talk to him now either. He now does a thing where he posts something on Facebook about his comic, trying to gather responses. When he doesn't get anything, he makes a comment on his own post in which all he does is tag a handful of friends so they're forced to see the post and then feel obligated to comment on it. He did it to me the other day but I didn't respond. How's that as a topic? How NOT to use/abuse social networking in support of your comic or how to not be a pushy, obnoxious creator, either online or at cons. :) I know it's kinda negative, but maybe we can spin it.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 26, 2012 at 6:04am PDT

hahaha i know tony d! we've emailed back and forth a bit. we're not buds or anything, but we're acquainted. thx for the invite. lemme give you a tentative HELL YESSSS for now, and i'll check back in with you tomorrow and let you know for sure. i've just got a lot of stuff going on this week and i don't wanna over commit myself. but i think weds night should be fine. btw, sequential underground tomorrow night. WHAT SHOULD WE TALK ABOUT????? i kinda dont wanna talk to that guy... i wasn't really feeling his comic and i hate pushy guests.

Dan GreenwaldSunday, March 25, 2012 at 3:16pm PDT

Hey, just curious, what are you doing Wednesday night around 7pm? Like are you busy already recording any podcasts or anything? The reason I ask is I'm going to be interviewing Tony DiGerolamo. He's a writer, did a lot of work for Bongo and he does a lot of webcomics work now, most notably Super Frat. Anyway, I wanted to see if you wanted to jump on with me & talk to him.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 5:28am PDT

I think I know him from Bully and Party Down.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 11:15pm PDT

The guy from that awful short, Playing With Dolls, has been in a lot of stuff, so there's a good chance you know him from something... http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0291881/

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:39pm PDT

There's a little more background in this article about Graphation, thought you might find it interesting. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/11229/1167731-60-0.stm

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2011 at 4:51pm PDT

yeah i'm in. thx!!! i read Total Recall already, so there's that to talk about hahaha

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, May 11, 2011 at 4:08pm PDT

Hey are you busy tomorrow night around 8pm? Wanted to see if you were interested in being on CBP.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 22, 2011 at 6:05am PDT

The Kennilworth

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 21, 2011 at 6:53pm PDT

What is the name of your apartment building?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 14, 2011 at 1:53pm PDT

Thanks for the heads up, I just answered it. :)

Nick MarinoThursday, April 14, 2011 at 1:46pm PDT

yo you got a question in the comments on SH #127

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2011 at 1:56pm PST

fixed! thx for catching that. one outta 95 ain't too bad!!!

Dan GreenwaldThursday, March 3, 2011 at 1:26pm PST

Go to #54a. There is no "Next" link for going to #55a. The text is there, but no link.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2011 at 12:03pm PST

thx for letting me know about that!!! was it maybe #56a taking you straight to #57 instead of going to #50d?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, March 3, 2011 at 10:26am PST

No I had no problems navigating the blog, but there was one strip, somewhere in the mid-50s I think, where when you went to click on to the next strip, there was no link. All I did was go to the archive and go to the strip that way and the rest were fine.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2011 at 10:05am PST

hey thx for the kind words!!! did you notice any problems with the blog or do you have any suggestions that would make it easier to read?

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, May 23, 2010 at 10:48am PDT

Hey that's cool, I'll give it a shot

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 23, 2010 at 10:43am PDT

no prob. the only thing that's weird about it is i had to burn it onto 2 dvds cause it's so many files, and there are really specific directions in there on how to combine the files together to make it install correctly.

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, May 23, 2010 at 10:33am PDT

That would be great, I would really appreciate it.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 23, 2010 at 10:15am PDT

i got cs4 if you need it

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 21, 2010 at 11:14am PST

i dunno. the whole thing is so damn complicated! i priced it out and it's $275 for the block of ten. we should probably make the decision soon since it could take up to 15 business days to get them (unless we wanna pay an additional $100 for second business day processing).

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, February 21, 2010 at 10:48am PST

Let me think about it. Do you need to know by a certain date?

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 21, 2010 at 10:45am PST

hey totally forgot to mention this yesterday - shawn and i are looking into picking up a 10-pack of ISBN numbers for some of our stuff (mostly because it's either one ISBN for $125 or a 10-pack for i think somewhere between $250 and 300). we only want a few a piece and don't necessarily each need five of them, so i was wondering if you wanted to get in on the deal.

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, February 7, 2010 at 6:28pm PST

It may only apply to retailers and not artists.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 7, 2010 at 1:58pm PST

nah i don't know anything about that. lemme look into it and get back to you

1276903976@facebook.comSunday, February 7, 2010 at 1:42pm PST

Hey Nick, I'm doing my registration for my table for the show and noticed it says "If you do not have a regular vendors license than you should get a Transient Vendor's license by filling out form ST-1T from the Ohio Department of Taxation website." Did you do this?

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, August 14, 2009 at 7:42am PDT

I'm assuming that the Pgh Comicon is going to move back to April next year. As long as it doesn't conflict with that, I'm in. Scott will probably be up for it too.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, August 14, 2009 at 7:24am PDT

Apr 24+25 in Columbus

1276903976@facebook.comThursday, August 13, 2009 at 1:28pm PDT

That sounds really cool. I know that's a show I've wanted to check out for a while. When/where is it?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, August 13, 2009 at 1:24pm PDT

the friend i worked with on the Apt 307 comic invited me to split a table with him at next year's SPACE, and i wanted to see if you might be interested in coming to the con too. i talked to Shawn already, and he said he'd definitely be down for splitting a table with you if you're interested.

Nick Marino, Ko Nakatsu
Nick MarinoSaturday, January 19, 2013 at 1:10pm PST

I moved cuz I felt like it. Got sick of the cold. Talk to you when you get back to LA :D

Ko NakatsuSaturday, January 19, 2013 at 11:44am PST

No shit! Awesome! Welcome welcome. What're you doing out here? We should definitely hang out. I'm in New York now but I'll drop you a message when I get back!

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 19, 2013 at 7:49am PST

YOOOO! i live in Long Beach now. if you're ever down here, we should kick it. also, i totally wanna try that cold brew green tea you were talkin about last year!!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 18, 2008 at 9:35am PDT

sounds good.

4804604@facebook.comTuesday, June 17, 2008 at 8:42am PDT

yo yo sorry it took so long to write back. i'm just writing to let you know i haven't forgotten. sometimes i get waves of work to do and right now i'm super busy. i should be good at the end of this week.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 3, 2008 at 7:21pm PDT

the email is just for me to set up your acount to post on the blog. you'd only get emails from me. if you want, i can set you up an email so you'd be ko@audioshocker.com

4804604@facebook.comSunday, June 1, 2008 at 5:52pm PDT

Awesome. I'll work on one for next week. for email, I'll just get emails from you or from strangers?

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, May 31, 2008 at 7:12pm PDT

that would be fucking awesome. i'll set you up with a posting account. what email address should i use for you?

4804604@facebook.comFriday, May 30, 2008 at 10:43pm PDT

yo, i've been thinking about how i can contribute and I'm thinking like doing a spoken word poetry on some of the media topics you have up on the blog. slam poetry's just something I got into the past six months and I think it'd be fun to do with talking about superheroes and music and all kinds a media shit.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 29, 2008 at 4:56am PDT

okay first off all of your stuff would get used. you can write about whatever you want, especially animal sex and nun sex (but apparently you have nothing to say about them which makes me feela little bit sad). it's all for fun, so you can rep whatever projects you want, etc. i attached the link to the blog - i think that pretty well explains what it's about.

4804604@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 9:35pm PDT

HAHAHAHAAHA yeah, I am totally curious! Does the blog have a focus? If it's about animal sex behaviors I only know that a) dogs do it doggystyle and b) nuns do it missionary style and I have nothing interesting to say about either. I wouldn't be able to write everyday but maybe once or twice a week. I can commit for a month and no hard feelings if you don't use any of my stuff. so tell me what the blog's about!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 12:19pm PDT

what's going on ko? i know this is completely random but here it goes anyway: you interested in writing for a blog? the reason i ask is cause i was thinking of friends that might have something interesting to say and you came to mind. let me know if you're curious and i'll tell you more about it...

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 30, 2006 at 12:03pm PST

yeah there's huge cmu crew up there it seems. no band now, just me solo. is christy seriously dating drackett?

4804604@facebook.comWednesday, March 29, 2006 at 11:35am PST

dope man, what band areyou in now? i'm as of yet not planning to go back for carnival but thanks for the info man. you should visit chicago sometime and partyituphere.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 7:28pm PST

Ko, you coming back for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

4801997@facebook.com, 7604264@facebook.com
7604264@facebook.comSunday, June 4, 2006 at 3:33pm PDT

Yeh, I graduated from Bromfield in 2000 as planned, but I don't go back there much.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 4, 2006 at 3:31pm PDT

i have been laughing a lot, playing a lot of music. lately been fucking a lot, which is a bonus. did you finish all of school in harvard?

7604264@facebook.comSunday, April 30, 2006 at 2:12pm PDT

Haha, you wouldn't believe how many people have your name out there. No such luck tracking down people like Nick Vincent and Julia Forrester though... I'm in my 2nd year of law school now, trying to decide what to do with the next phase of life. What have you been up to?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 27, 2006 at 7:20pm PDT

sure did. hows life meg?

7604264@facebook.comThursday, April 27, 2006 at 11:37am PDT

Did you by any chance go to elementary school in a small town in Massachusetts?

619871688@facebook.comSunday, November 15, 2009 at 12:51pm PST

If anybody needs to know where Nick specifically lives, just ask me. I showed up a whole week early to get the jump on you guys. I got to see Nick shirtless and fresh out of the shower and everything, lol. I can sense everyone's jealousy. Seriously though, sorry for the surprise visit Nick, my bad for not double-checking the date on the event invite. I feel like a jackass, haha.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 9:12pm PST

yeah, sorry... my list was very incomplete! if there's something you're looking for, the best bet is to just ask me. i've got a lot of different stuff. anyway, dan, wise choice on the A:TI. you know i'm a big fan of that book. i am missing a few issues here and there due to my time doing advance reviews online (maybe 3 or 4 issues are missing from the run) but almost all of it is there.

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 1:19pm PST

I didnt know you had Dynamo 5 issues or Maus...I would have totally tried to grab those.

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 1:14pm PST

Dibs on the Avengers: The Initiative issues

619871688@facebook.comSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 12:26pm PST

Wow, that's quite a lot of Y the Last Man. I wouldn't mind snagging it, and then I can just buy a few trades to fill in the gaps. But, I've already called dibs on enough, so if it's still there when I get there on Sunday, cool. If not, no biggy. :D

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 11:37am PST

i just remembered i also have this stuff: Y the Last Man from somewhere from the teens or early 20s to the end, first two Excalibur trades (the introduction one and the X-babies), all of Grant Morrison's New X-Men, and umm tons more Dibs have currently been called on: Tales of the TMNT, Hush, Civil War and tie-ins, Casanova, Sleeper, Gambit, all ages comics (Marvel Adventures books, Batman Adventures, more...), Neal Adams X-Men Visionaries, Cap Essentials 2 + 3, War Machine MAX, Maus, Dynamo 5 #1-25

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 9:22pm PST

I'm good for any of those days.

784978277@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 9:08pm PST

Dibs called on those TMNT books!!

619871688@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 2:11pm PST

Oh man, my Fiancee used to live down by Shadyside. Shit, I can just walk there too, it's not very far.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 2:07pm PST

i live in Shadyside, so i'm really close to you. the 71C stops a few steps away from my place. i'm basically on the corner of Ellsworth and Maryland (near the Elbow Room). other buses running relatively near my place are: EBA, EBO, EBS, 500, 64A, 71A, 81B, 86A, and more that i'm probably forgetting.

619871688@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 11:42am PST

I think either of those days work for me. I just need to figure out transportation issues since I'm more of a "public transport" kinda guy. If anybody is going to be near Squirrel Hill/Oakland and can give me a lift (if Nick doesn't leave nearby) it'd be greatly appreciated. Gas money is on me. :D

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 11:06am PST

okay good stuff. i'm thinking either the 15th OR the 21st OR the 22nd. when is good for everyone? and sorry, scotty, no star wars, gi joe, or trans (well, maybe one issue of star wars). oh and i just remembered i have a bunch of the Rampaging Hulk magazines, a ton of Marvel Team-Ups, and the first 31 issues of the early 00s relaunch of Iron Man (Busiek, not Ellis).

1276903976@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 7:38am PST

Sweet man, let's do this!

619871688@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 7:37am PST

I'm totally calling internet dibs on the Hush series. My fiancee would definitely be interested in reading that. I may also be interested in snagging your Civil War comics perhaps.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 7:35am PST

hah! a list? you wish! hmm just off the top of my head, some Batman (all of Hush is in there); mucho X-Factor, X-Force, and some X-Men; lots of New Avengers; lots of Black Panther (Hudlin series); a mixed bag of 80s and early 90s stuff; some crusty yet classic 60s and 70s Marvel stuff; Avengers: The Initiative; She-Hulk; Civil War; all of Sleeper; 21 Down; some interesting Dark Horse stuff; nearly all of Tales of the TMNT; most of PAD's early Aquaman; hmm and i dunno TONS more... can't really remember now. only thing you can't have are my Len Kaminski Iron Man run, my Paul Smith X-Men run, my Jim Lee Uncanny run, and maybe a few other sentimental issues.

784978277@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 5:52pm PST

You wouldn't have a list of what your offerin' would you!?!?

667251308@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 5:07pm PST

I'd be happy to snap up any Marvel: Star Wars / G.I.Joe or Transformers you have lying around. And I'll surely browse the rest!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 1:04pm PST

man it's like only shawn wants to just take these puppies for free! i thought about it for the comicon as well, but it's just too much work (remember i'm only there on friday and a bit of sat) and i want to make the space in my place now!

619871688@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 12:54pm PST

Why not sell them at the upcoming ComicCon where you already paid for a table? I'd definitely be up for checking out some of your stash. This is a really nice offer too, you're like the Saint Nicholas of comic book nerds, haha. If you have leftovers, which I'm sure you will, maybe you could just have a contest on your podcast and mail a box of the leftovers out to someone?

1077923989@facebook.comWednesday, November 4, 2009 at 8:57pm PST

sure count me in

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 4, 2009 at 5:24pm PST

good idea but too much work for me. i thought about it, but i'd rather just give em to friends rather than go thru all that. chances are i'd spend more getting the table and the zipcar than i'd make off the books.

1276903976@facebook.comWednesday, November 4, 2009 at 5:14pm PST

That's a generous offer and I'm interested, but why don't you get a table out at Steel City Con next month and sell them off? Whatever you don't sell after that give to friends or a library.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 4, 2009 at 5:09pm PST

That's right. I wrote it. And I mean it. All they do is take up space. I barely ever re-read any of them, and when I do, most of them aren't that good. So I figure I'd see if you guys want first crack at them. I've got about 7 longboxes full of early 70s through now. Save for probably 50 of them, they're going out the door! I'm thinking maybe one Saturday sometime over the next month I'll have a "take Nick's comics" open house, and whoever wants some stuff can just pop over to my apt and rummage through the comics. Anyone interested? Lemme know if you are so i can figure out how I'm gonna get rid of these badboys.

4801997@facebook.com, 49400301@facebook.com
4801997@facebook.comMonday, January 1, 2007 at 3:37pm PST

yeah ive only heard good things about it.

49400301@facebook.comMonday, January 1, 2007 at 8:54am PST

the walking dead's tagline is "a contuing story of survival and horror" about a group of people trying to survive a zombie outbreak. its supposed to be like a never ending story so the readers can actually get a good grip on the characters as they change and stuff, its really interesting.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, December 31, 2006 at 12:10pm PST

thanks so much for checking my work. civil war is freakin awesome! you have to check it out. i haven't checked out Walking Dead. what's it like?

49400301@facebook.comSunday, December 31, 2006 at 10:09am PST

hey... just wanted to let you know i'm pretty impressed with your comics and writing reviews and stuff. i like to draw and write a lot too. its pretty cool you get to write reviews and stuff, this whole marvel civil war thing ive been wanting to get into but i think i want to wait until there is just a big compilation book. ive been reading "the walking dead" comics lately, and theyre pretty good. you ever hear of them?

Nick Marino, Wayne Wise
Wayne WiseTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 3:06pm PDT

Will do.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 8, 2012 at 3:03pm PDT

i can't make it into the shop tomorrow (family funeral this weekend, gotta travel)... but i was wondering if you could pull a copy of Deathstroke #9 for me. THX!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 26, 2012 at 12:02pm PDT

Thx!!!

Wayne WiseThursday, April 26, 2012 at 9:24am PDT

Possible, not promised. We only get so many of them and already have special orders. I'll sign you up though.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 26, 2012 at 8:56am PDT

If I added Avengers vs. X-Men to my pull, is it possible to request the Avengers variants?

Wayne WiseTuesday, April 17, 2012 at 7:07am PDT

Thanks Nick!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 17, 2012 at 5:58am PDT

Just thought I'd let you know I bought all of your books today off of Amazon!!! I know, I know... it took me fucking forever. Check back with me in another year and I'll have read them all by then :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 18, 2012 at 8:15am PST

Thx. I'll see if I can hunt it down.

Wayne WiseFriday, February 17, 2012 at 1:51pm PST

It went to back order, so we're probably not going to see it from Diamond.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 17, 2012 at 12:37pm PST

hey just wondering if that reorder went through for Wolverine and the X-Men #3. should i hold off and wait to snag it from you guys, or does it look like it's not gonna come in? just curious, cause if it's really backordered i might try to find it whenever i'm out and about.

Wayne WiseWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 2:32pm PST

2nd print came last week, sold out, went to back order when we tried to reorder it. The Diamond site says it is in stock, in spite of the Back order status, so we may see it. I'll write up a special order in case we get it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11:46am PST

Wolverine and the X-Men #3... do you have any copies left? Or maybe a reprint coming out soon? If so could you plleeeaaassseee pull one for me? Thx!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 26, 2012 at 3:47pm PST

YOU DA MAN!!!! Thx.

Wayne WiseThursday, January 26, 2012 at 2:53pm PST

Super Soldiers #1-7 is now in your sub.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 5:33pm PST

yeah, that sounds like a safe bet. very interesting! THX!

Wayne WiseWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 4:55pm PST

The Comic Book Database site credits Power Man #26 cover to Klaus Jansen and Gil Kane, in that order, which usually means Penciler then inker. That might be Kane over Jansen, but my guess is that it's the other way around. Jansen can be pretty heavy handed.

Nick MarinoFriday, December 23, 2011 at 4:25pm PST

haha nice! thx for letting me know. i'll have to bring more cds next week.

Wayne WiseFriday, December 23, 2011 at 8:01am PST

FYI... just sold the Stick Cats value pack with the CD.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 5:22am PDT

you got it

Wayne WiseTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 5:20am PDT

No hurry. Could you send me some images from your webcomics to accompany the article as well? You can send those to tetroc@gmail.com

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 25, 2011 at 4:57am PDT

THX!!!! I'm sure I'll have them done soon :)

You're next up on the blog interview. No rush. 1) Tell us a bit about your comics and where they are available. 2) Why comics? 3) Who have been your biggest influences, both in writing and in art? 4) What are your favorite comics (whether you consider them influential on your style or not)? 5) Have you studied art or writing in college, or are you self-taught? 6) What’s your normal process for creating your comic? 7) How do you promote your work? 8) What do you enjoy most about being a comics creator? 9) What do you find most difficult about being a comics creator? 10) What's more important to you: Telling a story or pushing the bounds of comic book art? 11) Why self publish instead of submitting your work to the majors? 12) What are your long-term goals with comics? 13) You are pretty heavily involved in the world of podcasting, about comics as well as other topics. What can you tell me about that? What got you interested in that in the first place? 14) Where can you be found you on the web if anyone wants more info?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 6, 2011 at 7:58am PDT

Great. I'm looking forward to the conversation.

Wayne WiseTuesday, September 6, 2011 at 7:07am PDT

That's cool. I should be ale to fit it in some time during that stretch. Thanks.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 6, 2011 at 6:42am PDT

This week doesn't work out too well for the rest of the crew, so I think it'd be best to push back your show until the next one. That episode will be airing on the 21st, which we should record sometime in the week before. Any bad days for you between the 15th-20th?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 10:35am PDT

D'oh!! I forgot about the holiday. Either works fine for me. Lemme check in with the rest of the SU crew and see what works best for them.

Wayne WiseSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 10:24am PDT

We're closed this Monday for the Holiday. I'm going out of town tomorrow and part of Monday, but I should be back by evening. Want to schedule something for then? If not then, I'm done on Tuesday at 7. We could meet up right after. Let me know what works better for you.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 9:40am PDT

For our the next Sequential Underground podcast... When would be a good time for you to record? We could meet at Phantom or at Kiva Han. The show airs on Wednesday, so Monday or Tuesday are our options. We could record on your break or after work.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:36pm PDT

Okay, I musta just been in at the times when you've been gone!

Wayne WiseThursday, August 25, 2011 at 12:17pm PDT

I was gone last Monday and Tuesday. I've spent some time on Thursdays and Fridays doing back room back issue stuff, so maybe I was back there.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 25, 2011 at 10:22am PDT

THX WAYNE! YOU DA MAN! were you on vacation? i assume so cause you haven't been in the shop when i've stopped by in the past couple weeks.

Wayne WiseThursday, August 25, 2011 at 10:19am PDT

I just pulled most of these for you.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 13, 2011 at 1:36pm PDT

Okay, another request! Silver Surfer 44-59. It doesn't have to be the whole set. Just whatever issues you have. THX!

Nick MarinoMonday, August 1, 2011 at 12:00pm PDT

If you don't have full sets of the Infinity stuff, forget about all of it... EXCEPT for Thanos Quest! Either the two issues of the original Thanos Quest or the Thanos Quest reprint -- http://www.atomicavenue.com/atomic/IssueDetail.aspx?ID=187367 -- are both fine by me. THX!!!

Wayne WiseMonday, August 1, 2011 at 7:43am PDT

I know we don't have all of the Infinity issues. Do you want what we have, or only full sets?

Nick MarinoMonday, August 1, 2011 at 6:26am PDT

yo!!!!!!! i got more backissue requests!!! Infinity Gauntlet #1-6 Infinity War #1-6 Marvel Comics Presents #108-111 Silver Surfer #34-38 Thanos Quest #1-2 Warlock and the Infinity Watch #7-10 THX!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:59am PST

Hahaha YES! FINALLY... all the Nightwatch I can read.

Wayne WiseThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:56am PST

The good news is they're cheap!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:52am PST

Oh no! Nightwatch and Dragon Lines were my curiosity/throwaway picks!!! Hahaha

Wayne WiseThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:48am PST

We're failing miserably here. We have full runs of Nightwatch and Dragonlines and that's it. We're only missing #8 of the Aquaman series. Everything else, we have some, but not all. I get the feeling that's going to be the nature of our whole warehouse.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:42am PST

hahaha yeah the B+W mag, if you have any! the Aquaman book is by Shaun McLaughlin, sorry!!! pencils by Ken Hooper, covers by Maguire.

Wayne WiseThursday, March 10, 2011 at 10:37am PST

Deadly Hands... the B&W magazine? We'll need to dig some for that (which we'll be doing anyway). Which Aquaman series did you want? My note says the MArtin series, but now that I'm at the warehouse that doesn't seem to match up with anything.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2011 at 6:46am PST

oh and one more thing -- Avengers: Terminatrix Objective #2-4

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2011 at 5:05am PST

re: backissues... alright, here's some stuff i'm looking for if ya got any of it: Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #32-33 Heroes for Hire (2000s) #1-15 Immortal Iron Fist #17-27 Iron Man: Bad Blood #1-4 Iron Man: Legacy of Doom #1-4 Namor the Sub-Mariner #21-25 Nightwatch #1-3 Silver Surfer/Warlock: Resurrection #1-4 Death of the New Gods #1-8 Rann-Thanagar Holy War #1-8 Cosmic Guard #1-6 (DDP) Dragon Lines #1-4 (Heavy Hitters/Epic/Marvel) Metallix #1-6 (Future) i'm really only looking to pick them up as full runs, so if it's just some issues here and there from a title, i wouldn't wanna buy it. THX!!!!!!!!!!

Wayne WiseThursday, January 27, 2011 at 9:53am PST

So this is a quick sketch/doodle I did of the Fixer. Not a character I hate, or love particularly. He was one of the long time Marvel villains That Kurt Busiek used in Thunderbolts and is pretty representative of the book at that time. Here wasa character with a 30-plus year history that we really knew nothing about. He was a pretty generic villain. Kurt gave him a personality and made him interesting. Unlike Songbird or Mach 5, both of whom became genuinely heroic over the course of the series, the Fixer was never really redeemed. I like the take on him, which Nicieza expounded upon after Busiek left the book, that Norbert (the Fixer) really likes the challenge of fixing things and solving problems. He is morally grey and his attention can be focused on solving problems for the good guys as well as the bad. He doesn't need redemption so much as redirection. Not sure why I sketched him. He's not playing a huge role in the new Thunderbolts, but he is there, and I kind of like this iteration of his costume.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 23, 2011 at 4:10pm PST

the guy from thunderbolts whose name i can't remember!

Wayne WiseSunday, January 23, 2011 at 4:06pm PST

Which sketch of mine is going up? I forgot what I gave you.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 19, 2010 at 1:30pm PST

really weird! sorry about that. i hope my nose job is a good replica of the original!

Wayne WiseSunday, December 19, 2010 at 1:24pm PST

Works for me. Thanks. I looked at the original and the nose is there. It must have simply closed up when the levels were adjusted. Weird.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 19, 2010 at 11:39am PST

how's this? http://www.audioshocker.com/2010/12/19/project-basement-grendel-by-wayne-wise

Wayne WiseSunday, December 19, 2010 at 10:19am PST

It must have closed up in the printing. I'm sure it's on the original. Go ahead and paste a nose on it.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 19, 2010 at 10:08am PST

hey wayne i just published your grendel sketch for project basement... but then i read your description, and there's one little problem... he doesn't have the nose in the sketch! maybe the face came out too dark or something like that when i scanned it... i'm not sure. but on the version i have, the nose isn't visible. so what do you want to do? i can toss a little white spot on the face for you, email you the photoshop file and you can do it, or you can revise the description.

Wayne WiseMonday, December 13, 2010 at 5:37am PST

No hate here. I love Grendel. I picked up the first black and white issue of this when it first came out, and in spite of Matt Wagner's limitations as a draftsman at the time, his sense of design and storytelling simply blew me away. I love the simplicity of this design. It's slick and practical. The little harlequin nose is the single most important piece of it. It adds a sense of whimsy to the character that makes him even creepier. This perfectly reflected his personality as well. In the first issue Grendel recites nonsense poetry from Alice in Wonderland while executing a roomful of crime lords. Darkly funny. Wagner's other work, Mage, is closer to my heart than Grendel, and Mirth, the actual Mage from that series is in my top 10 favorite characters list. But because of the design I'm pretty sure I've drawn Grendel more often.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 12, 2010 at 1:47pm PST

gonna post your grendel sketch next week. send me whatever you'd like to say!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, October 10, 2010 at 3:16pm PDT

INTENSE!!!

774680272@facebook.comSunday, October 10, 2010 at 5:42am PDT

Okay, on my way to Zombie Fest, but here goes. I don't really hate Cable as a character. There are very few characters that truly deserve my ire. I do believe that there are no bad characters, just bad writers. I do hate what Cable represents. I pinpoint his introduction to everything that went wrong with superhero comics in the 90's. There is no central core concept to Cable. There's simply no "there" there. First of all, his name. Cable? What does that have to do with who he is? I think I heard someone describe it as a "Power Word" whatever that means. It doesn't describe his powers, or his function, or anything about him. Anything could be ascribed to this name. This goes back to the lasck of core concept to me. Secondly, his powers. It sounds like he was created by a six year old in a session that went something like this (to be read in a slightly breathless, child-like voice)... Okay, okay, see... he has this robot arm, 'kay? Annndd... he's got psychic powers, and they're the best, 'cause he's Phoenix's son, only not really, and when he uses them his eye glows. Oh! Oh yeah! He's got this big scar on his other eye. Anndd... Guns! Big, big guns, just in case his most powerful psychic powers in the universe don't work and he needs to shoot somebody. Oh, and he's a mercenary from the future too. Core concept? WTF? And don't get me started on the costume. I'm not even going to go off on the pouches and shoulder pads and whatnot. Like the name, nothing about it says anything about the character. It was drawn differently every time it appeared. Part of that is the inconsistency of the artists, but part of it is that there were no specifically defining elements of it. Poor design. And everything just said about Cable is true of Bishop, and Gambit and a plethora of other 90's characters. Killer Moth may have had a dumb looking costume, but at least you knew what he was supposed to be. Comics, superheroes specifically, are an iconic medium. I see very little that is iconic about this style of design or character concept. They are ciphers, not characters, which explains why they have been miserably redefined over and and over again. No core concept.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, October 9, 2010 at 8:27pm PDT

send me your hate-filled tirade!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 1, 2010 at 5:46pm PDT

ugghh. i really wanted to make it to the shop after work today, but other stuff took precedence. anyway, i wanted to let you know that Shawn was beyond flattered that you're interested in inking some of his stuff. and if i don't see you before saturday, then i'll see ya on saturday!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 2, 2010 at 12:27pm PDT

that comic swap was great but sadly no sleepwalker or aquaman!!! anyway, i'm gonna swing by tomorrow night and grab the rest of that sleepwalker cause i'm not gonna be around on wednesday.

774680272@facebook.comFriday, July 30, 2010 at 7:51am PDT

We need to be much better at documenting all of the stuff we do. Filming everything is a good idea. The problem is that most of us are lazy and caught up in the day-to-day running of the store. There are probably a lot of things we can do to make this place better or at least more active with events.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, July 30, 2010 at 7:44am PDT

annnddd... totally unrelated but still important -- what could we do to get Phantom nominated for the Eisner again AND insure a win? one thing i was thinking is what if we made sure we filmed every event at the store over the next year, so when a nom comes in, you'll already have footage of store events and stuff like that?

774680272@facebook.comFriday, July 30, 2010 at 7:42am PDT

Publishamerica.com But wait a little while. The books are in transition there. The TP price is going up to a ridiculous amount. They are making a cheaper paperback version available, but I haven't yet given them the okay to do so.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, July 30, 2010 at 7:38am PDT

hey i know i asked you before but i forgot... where can i buy a copy of your novel????

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, July 17, 2010 at 6:52am PDT

thx!

774680272@facebook.comFriday, July 16, 2010 at 10:53am PDT

I just pulled 441, 442, 443,447,448, 449 and whole bunch of Sleepwalker (we didn't have all of them, but there's a lot).

4801997@facebook.comThursday, July 15, 2010 at 8:26pm PDT

i think friday's your warehouse day, if i remember right so i thought i'd shoot this request over before i forget... as a precursor to the Aquaman stuff you pulled for me last week, i'm trying to also score: Adventure Comics #441-452 thx!!!!!!!!!!!

774680272@facebook.comFriday, May 28, 2010 at 6:35pm PDT

I wasn't in today at all. Moving weekend. We're in the thick of it.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 28, 2010 at 6:44am PDT

how late are you at the shop tonight?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 11:01am PDT

thx! i think i've been to the mckee's rocks one before. i've def been to pittsburgh guitars but their attitude is so bad that i'll probably skip them. i have to look up the lawrenceville place. i guess i could always try guitar center too...

774680272@facebook.comSunday, May 9, 2010 at 4:59pm PDT

Not really. There's Pittsburgh Guitars on Carson Street. They've been around forever. I just saw a small place in Lawrenceville. There's a really big place out in McKee's Rocks. Okay... I'm done. That's all my knowledge. Good luck.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 9, 2010 at 7:58am PDT

i don't know too much about the guitar shops in town... do you know which shops are the best for selling or trading in used stuff?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, March 19, 2010 at 12:36pm PDT

thx so much!!!!

774680272@facebook.comFriday, March 19, 2010 at 11:43am PDT

Found some stuff. We have; Aquaman - #9, 12 Steel - (looks like Priest took over with #34), # 34-39, 41, 43, 44, 46, 47, 51, 52 Xombi - 0, 1-8, 11-14, 20, 21 All at our back issue sale prices.

774680272@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 2:03pm PST

I know we have some Xombi at the warehouse. I looked for the Streetfighter issue (Jeff actually wrote down a request), but we didn't have it. We don't have much Mutant X but I'll check. "the first comic book was Famous Funnies, published in..." or "the direct market was born when..."? Little bit of both. It's really a quick overview of everything with an attempt to tie it into a cultural/historical context.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 1:32pm PST

oh BTW, XOMBI is a Milestone/DC title from the 90s. i figure you probably know that but just in case not i thought i'd mention that!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 1:31pm PST

is it gonna be more "the first comic book was Famous Funnies, published in..." or "the direct market was born when..."? OR... both? just curious. both Shawn and i are planning on going. i still haven't decided about the costume and heckling yet, though... i do have this really funny costume called "Farm Lovin'" and beeeeelieve me, it definitely earns its name. if it's all the same to you, i'll send ya the wishlist here cause there's a pretty good chance i'll forget about it by Wednesday: Aquaman (i think it's v4, the Rick Veitch stuff) - #1, 9, 12 Mutant X - #3, 6-8, 10-11, 13-16, 19-22, 29 XOMBI - #0-21 Steel (the Priest stuff from the late 90s) - #34-52 Street Fighter Legends: Sakura - #4 that last one i looked for at the shop, and Jeff and I couldn't find it. i dunno if that's something you guys would even keep at the warehouse. THX!

774680272@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 12:15pm PST

You can send a list or bring it Wednesday. I won't be doing a warehouse run until Friday. The lecture thing is a slideshow/powerpoint presentation I put together a couple of years ago. I was asked to do something and it's getting bigger by the moment. Come by if you want to see me talk non-stop about comics for about an hour and a half, this time with visual aids.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 8, 2010 at 10:54am PST

i'm looking for a bunch of random backissues again. they're not stuff you'd have in the regular bins and i'm about 95% sure they're not in with the $1 books in the back cause i combed those again recently. could i shoot you a warehouse wishlist? or should i just bring it in on wednesday? ALSO... what's up with this thing on tuesday next week? a lecture, right? i was thinking about showing up in disguise to heckle you and/or ask a series of awkward questions...

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, December 15, 2009 at 7:08am PST

thx! i need to figure out how much it's gonna cost to get the rest from the web.

774680272@facebook.comFriday, December 11, 2009 at 12:39pm PST

That series was more popular than I remembered. We have; Superman #124, 131 Adventures of Superman #546, 547, 552, 553, 556, 557 Action Comics #732, 733,735, 739, 740, 744 Superman Man of Steel #67-70, 73, 74, 76, 79 I'm heading back to the store now. I'll throw them in your slot. If you don't think these are enough issues to bother with, let me know and I'll put them in the sale boxes.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 11, 2009 at 12:13pm PST

thx!!!

774680272@facebook.comFriday, December 11, 2009 at 11:20am PST

I'm checking email from the warehouse right now, so your timing is good. I'll give you a shout in an hour or so and let you know what I find.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 11, 2009 at 9:56am PST

i did the math to figure out which issues the superman red and blue storyline ran thru. my calculations have determined that i've gotta be fucking crazy for doing this, but i'm gonna do it anyway. here are the issues i'm looking for: Superman #122-135 (14 issues) Adventures of Superman #545-557 (13 issues) Action Comics #732-744 (13 issues) Superman Man of Steel #67-79 (13 issues) Superman Red/Superman Blue #1 (1 issue) (54 total issues) oh well maybe i'll get some sort of award for endurance. thx!!!

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 6:25am PDT

i hear ya! enjoy the family reunion tomorrow.

774680272@facebook.comSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 5:31am PDT

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not going. Just too much other stuff going on.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 11, 2009 at 8:20am PDT

hey, if you end up going out to monroeville either tonight or tomorrow and you want some company during your ride there, gimme a shout. i'm doing that zipcar thing now and i was thinking about reserving one of the cars and going out tomorrow, but it just doesn't make sense to pay $40 for the car alone just to see friends on the con floor that i would see a day or two later anyway. as a thanks for the ride, i'll buy your ticket (do they even make you pay to get in???) or get you lunch. not sure if you have my digits... my number is 484-798-7753.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, July 26, 2009 at 4:43am PDT

nice!!! can't wait to hear more about it.

774680272@facebook.comSaturday, July 25, 2009 at 6:48am PDT

Thanks Nick. I'm going to post something after I call Jeff in a few minutes. It was disappointing, but... I was sitting next to the guy who won. It does sound like he has an awesome store. Thanks for all your support on this project. I've met a number of other big retailers and discovered some new resources that I hope will help the store. I'm having a blast, though I'm tired as hell. Stimulus overload. There are some panels I'd like to do but the lines are simply way too long (like at the bathroom). After leaving the Eisner's last night I literally saw people camping out for the Lost panel this morning. Yep... not gonna get in that line. Marcel has posted a few pics of our trip. There will be more to come once we get home.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, July 25, 2009 at 6:10am PDT

hey i saw the results. i wish that phantom won. but the good news is that when phantom gets nominated next year, you already have the "new" video completed! having fun in san diego?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 9, 2009 at 8:30am PDT

thanks for these quotes. i had a great time on friday so thx for that as well. i would say "hope you had a good time" too, but i'm about 99.9% sure you had one. and i was, at first, hoping you WOULD invite me into some sort of cult. but now, after thinking about, it's probably all for the best that there was no cult-joining involved.

774680272@facebook.comSunday, June 7, 2009 at 8:58am PDT

Both from the first book by Carlos Castaneda. These are from his teacher, don Juan. And no, I'm not trying to rope you into a cult. I view everything he wrote as metaphor. Hope you had a good time on Friday. Does this path have heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn’t. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you. Don Juan For me there is only the traveling on the paths that have a heart, on any path that may have a heart. There I travel, and the only worthwhile challenge for me is to traverse its full length. And there I travel–looking, looking, breathlessly. Don Juan

774680272@facebook.comTuesday, May 26, 2009 at 5:08pm PDT

Awesome! I guess this sort of counts as stuffing the ballot box, but I guess any store can mount a campaign. Thanks.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 26, 2009 at 9:47am PDT

i voted last night and phantom had 15%. now they have 60%. nice job!!!!!!!! i think the facebook campaign worked!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 20, 2009 at 8:38am PDT

thx anyway!

774680272@facebook.comWednesday, May 20, 2009 at 7:41am PDT

Nope. I've never seen the film or read the original story. Sorry.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 20, 2009 at 6:36am PDT

do you have a copy of A Scanner Darkly i could borrow?

774680272@facebook.comSunday, May 10, 2009 at 6:54am PDT

Thanks.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, May 9, 2009 at 6:59am PDT

alright it's done - you are an admin. i'm glad that the group updates will be coming from someone directly involved. that's a lot better than second hand info! did you ever get the message i sent out yesterday? it seemed like it got sent out kinda weird.

774680272@facebook.comFriday, May 8, 2009 at 2:32pm PDT

That might be a good idea so I can relate info as it happens.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, May 8, 2009 at 5:51am PDT

that's great!!! i'm very happy to hear this. i'll send out a message now. also, do you want me to make you an admin of the group?

774680272@facebook.comThursday, May 7, 2009 at 6:23pm PDT

It's official... we've been nominated. We received a big packet of info in the mail. There's a ot yet to do, but I wanted to say thanks again. I'm going to post something like this on the group page, but if you, as the admin, can send a message to everyone that would be awesome.

774680272@facebook.comMonday, March 23, 2009 at 8:09am PDT

Thanks.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, March 23, 2009 at 7:32am PDT

glad to do it. i'm gonna put the post together tomorrow and i'll send you a link.

774680272@facebook.comSunday, March 22, 2009 at 7:00am PDT

Wow... I'm stunned. Where is this place? It should get nominated for something. That sounds awesome. This is way more than I expected. Thanks. I think it all works. I was going to mention the community outreach thing with the Toonseum, but you already covered it. Seriously Nick, thank you, for taking the time to do this, and for the great compliments. It's the friends like you that make me love what I do.

okay i wrote A LOT. but i figure its better to send it all to you and get your thoughts than to just give you an idea here and there. i haven't done a full proofread to there may be a few typos here and there. please change what you think could be better and let me know!! also, remember that i get paid to write advertising copy so if this sounds to much like an advertisement, i'm open on how to fix it! 1. Support of a wide variety of innovative material: You can be sure that Phantom of the Attic Comics has tons of new books every Wednesday and a comprehensive selection of backissues both on site and in storage at all times. But what truly makes Phantom unique is its embrace of indie comics, local creators, and offbeat mainstream work. Take, for example, Street Angel, an indie comic drawn by Pittsburgh artist (and Phantom customer) Jim Rugg. When this book first launched, it was an under-the-radar title with no mainstream hype. Phantom of the Attic Comics championed this comic, putting it next to the store's register and recommending it to countless customers. Now Street Angel is a popular underground success and the inspiration for a high-profile short film debuting later this year. But Phantom's loyalty was never dependent on public visibility or success - the store was interesting in promoting the exciting independent work of a local comic artist. And this happens time and time again, whether its the store owner buying ashcans off of an up-and-coming creator to put right onto their shelves or promoting a wide range of unique comics in store through word of mouth and high-visibility placement. 2. Knowledge: If you've been to Phantom of the Attic Comics, this question seems like a no-brainer. The staff is extremely knowledgeable on comics modern, classic, and everything in between. Phantom's employees aren't high-turnover teens that stand behind the register and read comics all day. The staff at Phantom is highly interactive with the customer base, knowing the majority of repeat consumers on a first and last name basis. Jeff, the owner, makes the rounds on the store floor constantly, greeting friends, striking up conversations, and answering questions. Wayne, longtime sales and customer service employee, acts as Phantom's ambassador to the creative comics community in Pittsburgh and the store's comics historian. And the list keeps on going - every employee at Phantom has a special niche that they fill for customers, providing extensive knowledge and great customer service. 3. Community activity: Basically, Phantom of the Attic Comics is a hotspot for the creative comics community in Pittsburgh. In their new expanded space, Phantom supports creator signings and customer appreciation events. Free Comic Book Day at Phantom isn't "buy a comic to get a free comic book day" - it's "welcome to Phantom... this is customer appreciation day." Free comics flow like wine and friends connect for an all-day event. Phantom is also known for supporting the works of many comic creator customers in the Pittsburgh area. And Phantom's latest community activity may be their biggest yet - working with Pittsburgh new Toonseum cartoon museum to promote comics around the Pittsburgh and its surrounding area. 4. Quality of store image: Phantom of the Attic Comics is highly regarded as a comics retailer. Between the creative community, the comics fan base, and the general shopping public of Pittsburgh, people only have good words for Phantom. The shop was voted Best Comic Bookstore for 2008 in the Pittsburgh City Paper's Best of 2008 readers' poll... and that was before their recent upgrade to an innovative retail space that quadrupled their size. All the racks, shelves, and displays in Phantom has been custom-built for the store, utilizing unique visual design never seen in any other comic shop before. Even the backissues received specially designed drawers built to support the size and weight equivalent of two longboxes. Phantom's layout allows for the ability to spotlight a wide range of books, from indie to manga to superhero to hardcover collections to digest to merchandise to collectibles to discount offerings. Most importantly, Phantom's unique layout and design is stocked with care and thoughtfulness. Seasonal displays feature products to interest both new and returning customers, while fresh comics material is always well organized and easy to identify. 5. Additional Comments: Personally, all I can say is that Phantom has been a huge part of my life for the past eight and a half years. Because of the opportunity provided by the store, I've delved further into the medium of comics than ever before. I've made friends at the shop. I've debated and discussed comics for hours when I just meant to swing by the shop to pick up a single issue. And I can say honestly - without any exaggeration - that Phantom of the Attic Comics is the single best comic shop I've ever been too. I'm serious. I've been across the United States buying comics from Phoenix to San Francisco to Chicago to Nashville to Philadelphia to New York City. I've even bought comics off newsstand racks in Italy. And I always go back to Phantom of the Attic Comics in Pittsburgh because I know it's the best.

since i want to provide people with a template (or at least examples) the next step is working out the answers to the questions: 1. Support of a wide variety of innovative material: 2. Knowledge: 3. Community activity: 4. Quality of store image: 5. Additional Comments: any suggestions / vital info you say should be in there?

That's awesome! Thank you so much for this.

okay, so i checked out the award page for the spirit of retail eisner, and i started to get some stuff together. i think that if i'm going to try and push people into voting for the shop, some pics are in order. so i uploaded my pics of the store to myspace... but more importantly, i made a flickr album for them (see attached link). i'm gonna use that when i post blogs about voting for Phantom. i also decided that when i blog about the award, i'm going to give people the info so they can copy and paste it into the award nomination if they want. i'll say you don't have to, but if you're feeling lazy, here's the info. so far, i just did the basics. let me know if all of this looks right. Retailer's Name(s): Jeff Yandora Store Name: Phantom of the Attic Comics Store Address: 411 South Craig Street Store Phone: 412-621-1210 Store City: Pittsburgh Store State/Prov: Pennsylvania (PA) Store Postal Code: 15213

719950096@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 12:19pm PDT

Thanks... I'm excited to get it finished and start casting it. Maybe I can finish next week. I think it'll be super fun in color! <3 Congrats on your inking/lettering/awesomeness on your new comic. I will pick it up for sure.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 12:16pm PDT

okay good to know you're still down. btw, Ross showed me a pic of your Shadoweyes sculpt so far... looks awesome!

719950096@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 12:00pm PDT

I'm still interested! I am just having trouble deciding who I want to do! :)

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 11:03am PDT

hey adrien and aimee - before i start putting together my lineup of contributors for this project, i just want to bug you both one more time to see if you're interested or not. i know you said you were back when i first posted about it, but just in case anything changed, i want to double check and see if you're still down. so hit me back and lemme know pls!

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:48am PDT

haha, I'll be sure to collect all my terrible stuff in one place. I'm even using lined paper for a real "authentic" feel.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:33am PDT

feel free to put whatever style on 'em you want but you should still totally send me any other sketches you do in the meantime! i'm all about the raw stick figure stuff.

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:21am PDT

Sounds like awesomeness to me. I already tried some terrible sketches, trying to cook up a "style" for my sketches so they're a bit more evolved than stick figures. They keep looking like Mega Man Robot Masters though, haha.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 5, 2010 at 9:17am PDT

hey all - so last week i put a comment out there that i'm trying to do a lo-fi fan project where people draw their favorite superheroes and supervillains. you expressed interest, so i'm following up. it's not like a drawing competition or some sort of high-quality comic art thing. my idea was for it to be a collection of drawings like the kind of doodles you'd do in your school notebook or a stick figure you'd draw on a napkin. ya know, fun and fast. the idea is a reaction to "project: rooftop," which is this blog that puts out super-polished redesigns of superheroes. cool idea, but stiff execution and it sorta kills the fun of the whole thing, in my opinion. so if you're still interested, shoot me a line. way i'm planning it right now, i'd put up one drawing a week on my blog (www.audioshocker.com) and then eventually collect all of the submissions into a zine/mini-comic (which i'd print up on my own dollar and send some to everyone who contributes). there's no deadline for it, but i think it'd be nice to have it wrapped up by the end of the summer.

Hey, I'm glad you guys enjoyed my notes. Nick, sure you can read it, just make sense of my ramblings haha. Ross, I don't think I ever owned any of the solo issues or if I did I don't remember them very well. Man, I do remember looking at those RPG books though,I would always want to buy them but never felt like there was enough content for my kid money.I'd love to see some of that stuff though! I could go on and on about all the different crazy artist they got to draw the turtles. Those issues were the turtles are like really human but like child like, remember those? I think the the Fact that Eastman and Laird were so up for all kinds of different interpretations of the turtles was really refreshing and had alot to do with expanding my likes and my style as a young artist. But maybe that's a letter I should send to them haha. Thanks for listening guys. I'm excited for the next part of the turtles cast! Hey Nick if you do read the note and mention it in the summary of the cast, if you don't mind linking my comic site www.invademyprivacy.com that would rock! Turtles Fans might dig my Sabertooth Swordsman comic!

100000139039989@facebook.comFriday, February 26, 2010 at 6:42pm PST

thanks, man! glad you like the Turtlecasts, be sure to tune in for part 3!!!! i love the very early Turtle designs, too, with the big feet and long necks and that stuff, i love when they're short and cute. i also love their early Eastman-heavy look where their muscles are really delineated, like in the Raph solo issue and the stuff where they infiltrate the TCRI building. i actually really like most of Laird's post-#1 work, i like how "soft" his Turtles look, and i like the contrast between Eastman's boxier looking Turtles like you said. i don't know, i guess i like all of it, heh. i think the stuff in the Leonardo solo issue (which also features Lawson doing the inset panels!) and the subsequent fight in the antique store is my favorite of all time even though i like the more turtle-like Turtles. i never read any of the Archie stuff, i had no idea Lawson even worked on that! looks pretty sweet, though. are either of you guys familiar with the Palladium role-playing game books? they put out a TMNT tie-in book called TMNT & Other Strangeness that had systems for mutant animal creation and stuff and then a bunch of spin-off books with other animals and settings; Eastman & Laird did some awesome mutants for the first couple books, like a sweet mutant porcupine and weapon-wielding opossums and dogs and some TMNT drawings exclusive to that book. and Lawson did a bunch of amazing characters for books like Mutants Down Under which was all Australian animals. you should check those out if you can find them. i'll have to scan some of the artwork and put it up online for you, i have TMNT & Other Strangeness but i'll have to hunt around for the other books. yeah, i LOVE that AC Farley painting of them in the woods!!! definitely one of his best. i usually don't really like his work that much, or rather how he does the Turtles, i hate the way he draws/paints their masks.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, February 26, 2010 at 6:22pm PST

so glad you liked it! if you're down, i'd love to read this message on the next podcast (a.k.a. Turtlecast pt 3).

579220482@facebook.comFriday, February 26, 2010 at 5:51pm PST

Hey I really dug the turtles cast. I just kinda geeked out during it so I wanted to just send a few thoughts. -I think issue 1 was laird's best work and is pretty immaculate even to this day.After that his stuff was kinda hit or miss I thought. -I always loved Lairds old pin-up of the turtles where they where like really more turtle looking with the huge bottom legs. I couldn't find a pic of it online :( -I think Eastmans best work was those great airbrushed covers to the first collected volumes and when the turtles return(Amazing!), otherwise his stuff was a little to frank miller and boxy for me. -I dig that you guys like Lawson, He did some great work in the Archie books.check out the great transformation scene on the forth page http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/archie/09/09.htm. one of my other favs was a mutated alligator story he did in one of the tales issues for mirage. -This is prolly one of my favorite turtles illustrations of all time on the cover to an old short story collection by a guy named A.C. Farley http://www.flickr.com/photos/invademyprivacy/4390515765/sizes/l/ he also drew a great issue where the turtles fight some kinda space vampires that have come to earth. Anyway,hope you dig the link, the podcast is great. Keep it up!

562873431@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 12:03pm PDT

yeah, i'm actually really excited about having all this extra time to work on interesting stuff. will absolutely be able to have a drawing to you by the end of the summer... maybe the end of the week. now i just have to figure out who my favorite character would be! that's awesome that it'll be a web comic! definitely definitely send me the link when you have it and i'll pass it around to everyone i know.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 11:56am PDT

sucks about your foot but those projects sound great! i want to have this wrapped by the end of the summer, but there's no strict time frame. with that said, it's definitely not a take a day sort of thing... more like take 5 or 10 mins! and thx for the nice words about Time Log. it's gonna start as an original webcomic (a.k.a. not just reposting the current comic) in August. from there, we'll probably collect all of that once it's done (looking at about a year of that comic right now).

562873431@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 11:50am PDT

ha! it's hilarious that i'd get this now... i just broke my foot last week and since i can't work now (both jobs require feet) i have been asked to illustrate my friend's children's book. also, another friend has asked me to draw something for him. broken bones = art renaissance! do you have a time frame for this? i'd like to focus on this book mostly, but if it's time sensitive, i'm sure i could take a day and get this to you! what an awesome project! also, i forgot to mention that i read your comic and it was hilarious! i thought it rocked and i'm definitely not just saying that because we're friends. i found myself giggling a bunch. would definitely continue to buy them if you were making more. are you?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 11:10am PDT

hey so i posted this thing a couple weeks back about a project i'm doing where people submit a doodle or sketch of their favorite superhero / supervillain / video game hero / whatever. like the kind of drawing you'd make in school notebook or something along those lines. it's more the creativity than artistic ability. i know you all are some combination of insane/creative, so i wanted to personally ask if you were interested in contributing. the idea is to run one drawing a week on my blog (there's currently 10 people lined up for it) and then collect the drawings into a zine once they're done on the blog. i'd send some copies of the zine to anyone that contributes.

i got your message, but my phone broke-seriously! anyways, we should definitely chill sometime this week. i'm getting it \"fixed\" today, meaning i'm going to tape it up and hope it works. but i'll give you a call if it does-- what's your number again?

Brian BabyokThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:55am PDT

I revised the comment to you and then I privately emailed George.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:55am PDT

i've definitely been guilty of doing that before! no worries and i'm glad you explained it cause otherwise i woulda been like "WTF???"

Brian BabyokThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:48am PDT

Agreed. Originally I was trying to congratulate you for your milestone and then I was all like, "Here's a guy who hasn't said squat for 100 strips which made me angry as I was typing and I didn't edit myself."

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:45am PDT

though, honestly, after reading your comment, i wish you would have posted it on george's link rather than mine if it's directed towards george and not me.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:39am PDT

k, thx for letting me know

Brian BabyokThursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:36am PDT

Just so that we're clear, I wasn't ranting at you for posting your 100 comic milestone. It was really a hint to George to stop telling me he has a new strip up that I get emailed about.

I'm just workin' a 9 to 5 insurance job but it's actually going well. I like it. I knew Conrad was out in LA, but i'll have to look him up on myspace. Seems like you're going in the oposite direction as I have in my life... I used to live in Pittsburgh prior to Fairport. What brought you there... carnegie mellon? are you still involved in art/illustration? i remember you were always drawing back in the day.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, December 11, 2007 at 12:57pm PST

Thanks Nick! Obviously I wish you could make it, but I appreciate the personal message! And I COMPLETELY understand. I know the invitation came very close to the date (it couldn't be helped, unfortunately), and I figured the Zine Fair would have your time spoken for. But you're one of my PEOPLE, so you had to be invited! :) It'll be fun, but we'll have other fun times soon. I'll see you at the Fair!

thx so much for the b-day party invite!! but i can't make it :( i'm obligated to make sure that the Zine Fair wraps up okay and take care of the cleanup afterwards. i wanted to send you a personal message rather than write a reply on the wall of the event. i hope you have an amazing time!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 13, 2012 at 9:16am PST

i just sent Bob a message to see how the SPACE waitlist is looking. just thought i'd give you a heads up.

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, February 15, 2011 at 8:18am PST

Perfect! Depending on who makes the actual reservations, I can front the money for Dawn, and reimburse whoever at their convenience. So yeah, this sounds good. I'll wait for your blast message. I'm looking forward to this!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 15, 2011 at 8:13am PST

okay sounds great. right now, it looks like this is who's going: dan, scott, seth, shawn, steph, you, and me. dan and scott already got a room together, and i don't think they're looking to share, so that leaves the six of us. i'm definitely down for room sharing in whatever combination. anyway, i think i'll shoot out an email to everyone this time. maybe get a better response!

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, February 15, 2011 at 7:48am PST

I've FINALLY spoken to Dawn, and here's the deal: She lives in Columbus, but is far enough away from the Ramada that she's cool with getting and splitting a room. If you guys are cool with it too, I wouldn't mind a couple more people sharing the room with us. So I'd like to join you for the trip there early Saturday morning, pitch in for gas, etc., and then we can share a room that night. Then I'll come back with you Sunday. Sound good? Thanks for helping us stay on top of this Nick!

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, February 4, 2011 at 5:13pm PST

Okay. I'll try to get ahold of Dawn this weekend so I can have something more concrete to plan around.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 4, 2011 at 2:16pm PST

we're definitely not going until Saturday morning.

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, February 4, 2011 at 1:58pm PST

I'm still trying to get ahold of Dawn so I know for sure! (That girl is a whirlwind of activity.) Sorry to be taking so long with specifics about this. When were you guys thinking of going down there? I'd "ideally" like to go Friday night, but if you're not going 'til Saturday, I can work with that too. If I'm hitching a ride, then whatever is easiest on the driver is fine with me.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 4, 2011 at 11:01am PST

hey so dan, shawn, and i were talking about SPACE last night and we were wondering what your deal is with hotel. are you staying with Dawn or do you need to book a room still?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 13, 2011 at 7:48am PST

ice cold

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, January 12, 2011 at 5:56pm PST

It's been a busy day or so, but I just wanted you to know this info is a big help. I'll be in touch within the next week to see if we can make travel/room arrangements together. Cool? Thanks Nick!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 6:37am PST

Bob Corby, the show organizer, has a special room block/rate with the Ramada that the show is in (it's kinda weird, but the best way to describe it is that the show is in the Ramada's event space... a.k.a. the basement). We stayed there last year. Twas okay. I got a hot tip this year that the Motel 6 across the street is a bit cheaper, so that's also an option too. I'll definitely be carpooling with Shawn because, while I drive, I have no car (though, to be honest, Shawn's car couldn't make it to Columbus, so we'll probably be riding with someone else). Last year we did Saturday morning, which was an early sort of thing (5:30-6), but not bad. Honestly, I'm game for going on Friday night too. Thing is, the show's not in the city proper, so it's not like there's a huge wealth of nightlife activity going on. Did I miss anything? Oh, tables are really cheap. And some peeps might be down for splitting (I had a table sharing nightmare last year so I'm trying to expunge it from my memory!!!).

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, January 11, 2011 at 4:32am PST

Where do I begin, Nick? 8^) Do you just stay at the Ramada Plaza that they offer a rate for on their website? If so, how close are they to the exhibition place? Do you head out Friday evening, or Saturday morning? I'd probably take Friday off from work, regardless, but if we're doing this together, I can plan accordingly. I'm assuming you drive there; are you going with Shawn, and what kind of carpool-type arrangements do you usually make? I don't drive, so if I went with Wayne he'd be driving, unless we all threw in together. (I'd feel less guilty if we did that, and I'm assuming that would be more cost efficient.) Do you get a Vendor's License, like they suggest on their site? Those are my immediate questions. If I have more, I'll follow-up. Thanks Nick! - M!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, September 9, 2010 at 7:05am PDT

not 100% sure if i can make it yet... but i think so! i'll let you know as soon as i know.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, August 26, 2010 at 4:16am PDT

you're welcome! thx so much to contributing (and contributing so early!) to the project!!!

609323093@facebook.comWednesday, August 25, 2010 at 8:52pm PDT

Nick - Just wanted to say THANKS for the ashcans -- they look great! Feel free to hit me up for anything like this, anytime. And by the way...I REALLY like "Mighty Marcel Walker". I may get that legally added to my name! Now I know what it must have felt like to work in the Marvel Bullpen...! Thanks again Nick! - Marcel

609323093@facebook.comWednesday, June 23, 2010 at 1:53pm PDT

Cool!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 23, 2010 at 12:46pm PDT

thx. i'm 484-798-7753, just so ya know who's calling

609323093@facebook.comWednesday, June 23, 2010 at 12:36pm PDT

412.983.9255 -- I have it with me all the time. If I miss your call, I'll hit you back!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 23, 2010 at 12:34pm PDT

DAMN! the one night i have plans!!! i'm gonna try and swing by after, though. what's your number?

609323093@facebook.comFriday, April 2, 2010 at 3:36pm PDT

No -- you're the first. I had no idea this was up! I actually did a search fairly recently to see if there was still info about the case floating around out there. It's still interesting (as the one poster commented) to see what readers have to say. Hopefully someday soon I can get mentioned for something other than dashing the dreams of hopeful fanboys everywhere. (Although it is fun watching them cry...) Thanks Nick!

4801997@facebook.comFriday, April 2, 2010 at 1:51pm PDT

hey dunno if anyone sent you this link yet but you're mentioned in the latest Comic Book Legends Revealed column on Comics Should Be Good

609323093@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 12:47pm PDT

Wonderful! I'll tell Wayne -- he'll be glad to hear that! I'll be seeing you there Nick!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 11:43am PDT

thx for letting me know! i gave Harold a ring and i'll definitely be volunteering tomorrow.

609323093@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 11:01am PDT

Hi Nick! Wayne (Wise, like you don't know that!) just called to inform me that he spoke with Harold Behar from the ToonSeum, and they're looking for volunteers to help at their KA-BLAM! benefit tomorrow night. It starts at 7PM and will be at 3030 Jane Street on the South Side. Are you interested and available? I was told that you can contact Harold directly at 412-915-0619. Wayne said you were the first person he thought of, and asked me to pass this along to you. And Justique! Of course, if you have anyone else you can think of, feel free to pass this along. Thanks! - Marcel

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 23, 2009 at 12:10pm PDT

thx for letting me know!

609323093@facebook.comThursday, April 23, 2009 at 12:04pm PDT

Hey Nick -- nothing to worry about. Wayne had been having some pains in his side for a week or more, and it appears it was just some muscles in his back giving him a problem. He got some muscle relaxants, and he's back at work today. I'll let him know you asked about him though. I'm sure he'll appreciate it!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 23, 2009 at 9:31am PDT

hey marcel - jeff yandora told me that wayne had to go to the hospital. just wondering how he's doing. thx.

http://www.spfpittsburgh.com/ i've got the two of you listed as tentative panel participants -- you can see it on the SPF home page -- is that okay?

1114668285@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:40am PDT

I'll participate if I can make it. There's a chance I won't be able to make the show though.

1233456164@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:36am PDT

Copacetic Comics will try to participate, but can't promise to do so. If you would like to add us to the list, regardless, then please put mark us as (tentative). Or just leave us off the list. That's fine with us.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:19am PDT

Hey all -- The panel is going to be called "Self-Publishing Comics 101" and it's going to be at 2 PM on Sunday. Right now, I've got Shawn, Nate, Mav, and myself down for the panel, but I'd love to have the rest of you in on it too. If you're interested, shoot me a line and I'll have your name added to the list of panel participants. THX!

706866653@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:57pm PDT

I'm certainly in. As for topics. Well, there's always print-on-demand publishing... or the various ways you can publish an indy comic in general. Interesting to the small-press crowd. Maybe not so much to the comics crowd. -Mav

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 5:51pm PDT

hey all - the offer has been extended to us for some sort of comics focused panel and/or workshop during the later part of Sunday at the Small Press Fest expo. i talked to Nate a little bit about ideas, and he had some good stuff (Nate, i'll let you explain it to everyone rather than me explain it wrong). anyway, i wanted to reach out to all of you and see if anyone has a good idea for something comics related that might not only appeal to us but also to the zine and small press literature crowd that'll be at the show. i'm meeting with the head of the show tomorrow to at least come up with a name for the panel/workshop and a time slot. but the more ideas i can bring to the meeting, the better! thx.

Byron Winton, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoSunday, December 4, 2011 at 11:34am PST

just sent you some halftime art for your review ;)

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 9:14pm PST

Hahahaha good to know!!! VERY creepy.

Byron WintonWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 9:12pm PST

My number is 412-422-1258 in case you were wondering about your creepy message. Creepy intended. :)

Byron WintonTuesday, September 20, 2011 at 6:43pm PDT

Not sure if you got my email, but here it is... Hey Nick, I've been thinking about my stint on Super Haters. I have a couple questions as well as a slight shift in story idea. Questions... 1) How long is my stint? 2) How many strips are we talking? 3) How often will they be coming out? 4) How much of it can I do? Would it be just the art or can I do the scripts text and coloring as well? Story Idea... I know I pitched the complex background thingy a while back. I've been thinking about it and have something more substantial. My run would center around the theme of Identity. Keeping with something that's more my style, I'd like to do a series of homages. For example, here's 3 scripts. Each idea would be 2 strips... #1) Swamp of Evil. Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back. D fights his nemesis (maybe Mind's Eye) in a swamp and cuts off their head... revealing his head behind their face. P1 - Jerry and D in the swamp. Jerry: "A domain of evil it is. In you must go." Destruct-o-Tron: "What's in there?" Jerry: "Only what you take with you." P2 - D wanders around the tree cave. P3 - D is confronted by Mind’s Eye. SPX: SWISH P4 - D and Mind’s Eye sword fight. P5 - D slices Mind’s Eye head off. P6 - The severed head reveals Predator’s face behind Mind’s Eye. Destruct-o-Tron: “You’re one ugly mother fucker!” Severed Head: “Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha!” SFX: BEEP BEEP BEEP #2) Copy Function. Matrix. D as Agent Smith turning supporting cast into other Ds. P1 - D dressed in black suit and black glasses... looks like Agent Smith. Mulldusa: “You.” Destruct-o-Tron: “Yes, me.” P2 - D turns Mulldusa into another Destruct-o-Tron. Destruct-o-Tron: “Me... me... me...” Destruct-o-Tron Clone: “Me too.” P3 - There are many Destruct-o-Trons. Destruct-o-Tron: “If you can't beat us...” Destruct-o-Tron Clones: “...join us.” P4 - There are many Destruct-o-Trons. Destruct-o-Tron: “The best thing about being me... There are so many ‘me’s.” P5 - Far removed from the mass of Destruct-o-Trons. Zombie Biter: "Now there's more than one of him?" Doctor: "A lot more." Señor Limpio: "But how? How can that be possible?" Doctor: "I don't know. Somehow he's found a way to copy himself." P6 - Destruct-o-Tron selected/highlighted. Right-click menu displayed. #3) The Intruder. The Thing. Supporting cast paranoid of who, amongst them is flaming homosexual. Mulldusa. Boner. Webmaster. Captain Nasty. Robot Moses. P1 - C/U of Mulldusa. Mulldusa: “Somebody in this camp ain't what he appears to be. Right now that may be one or two of us. By spring, it could be all of us.” P2 - Mulldusa: “And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now.” P3 - He’s holding the dildo behind himself, pants down. Mulldusa: “Now I'm gonna show you what I already know.” P4 - Boner, Webmaster and Captain Nasty are tied-up to the couch. Webmaster looks shifty. Boner: “This is pure nonsense. It doesn't prove a thing.” Mulldusa: “I thought you'd feel that way, Boner. We'll do you last.” P5 - Mulldusa approaches Webmaster as he starts shaking. Captain Nasty - “What’s wrong with him?” P6 - Webmaster transforms into Priscilla Queen of the Desert (http://www.rockymusic.org/img/priscilla/Priscilla-AliceSpringsShowL.png) the other guys are screaming and freaking out. Just a few ideas. I have a bunch more homages that need some scripting. Let me know what you think.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 24, 2011 at 9:31am PDT

SORRY! I'm a jerk.

Byron WintonSunday, July 24, 2011 at 9:14am PDT

You did not! I will join ASAP!

Nick MarinoSunday, July 24, 2011 at 9:09am PDT

hey i wanna make sure i didn't leave you out of anything -- did i add you to the project basement group when i first put it together? i don't care if you left... i just wanna know if you were in it! http://www.facebook.com/groups/247162328630256?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 1:43pm PDT

hehehe I LIKE IT!

Byron WintonWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 12:50pm PDT

I have an idea, just haven't had much time to work on it. Probably this weekend. It's Swamp Thing the Arsonist!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 28, 2011 at 6:21am PDT

GAHHHH! Work till 9:30 is criminal.

Byron WintonFriday, May 27, 2011 at 6:52pm PDT

Don't feel too bad. I was at work till 9:30. Now I'm at home.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2011 at 5:42pm PDT

Ehhh I'm not gonna make it. I missed the first bus and the second one doesn't get there till 8:45-9.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2011 at 11:50am PDT

yahhhhhhh finally

Byron WintonThursday, May 26, 2011 at 11:46am PDT

Probably. You an official member yet?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2011 at 11:41am PDT

you going to the PSI thing tomorrow night?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 16, 2011 at 7:13pm PST

holy shit that little thing is crazy!!!! thx for the link! i really dig it. the only thing that sucks about it is that you can't use it computers that suck in the discs , like you have to stamp it on the spinner. DAMN THEM AND THEIR CRAFTY DESIGN! haha i'm still considering it though. BTW, don't tell anyone -- this is super secret cause i want to surprise people with it, but i'm gonna try selling my stuff via digital download cards (it's like a gift card type of thing with a code on the back and it takes you to a special download site).

Byron WintonWednesday, February 16, 2011 at 5:14pm PST

A friend of mine sent me a link of something that I was already familiar with and it reminded me of a Podcast of yours where you were looking to distribute comics/art via some non paper system, ie. flash drives. http://www.amazon.com/Business-Shiny-Silver-Vinyl-Sleeves/dp/B003WRHP7E Just a thought.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 24, 2010 at 12:47pm PDT

no, you totally made sense and it worked out great! not sure i like it more than illustrator, but now i have the option. thx!!!

1073845757@facebook.comWednesday, June 23, 2010 at 7:14pm PDT

Any luck from my lesson? I hope my brain-farting didn't skewer the passed on knowledge. Let me know if it all works the way you need it to.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 2:04pm PST

okay sweet that sounds good. thx for letting me know!

1073845757@facebook.comTuesday, November 10, 2009 at 11:11am PST

Hey Nick, The print you ordered is in and I will bring it to PotA tomorrow night around 6:30 if my day-job doesn't dictate otherwise and make me work late, but I will let you know if that is the case. -B

1073845757@facebook.comFriday, October 30, 2009 at 2:21pm PDT

Hey Nick, Just letting you know that I was expecting an order of prints to show up today in the mail, but no luck. I will mail yours out to you when they come in (Monday/Tuesday) or we can arrange something. You're welcome to show up to the gallery tonight, but I didn't want to mislead you thinking you'd be getting goodies. Treats, yes, but no goodies. Talk to you soon. -Byron

Mulango Akpo-Esambe, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 12:45pm PDT

yeah. might be saturday this week, though.

Mulango Akpo-EsambeWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 12:27pm PDT

Are you guys still meeting on Sundays

Nick MarinoThursday, April 28, 2011 at 10:58am PDT

oh also the whole PlayStation Networked getting hacked seems ripe for a good CC2 joke.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 28, 2011 at 10:02am PDT

haha okay you did mean fan page in your FB post. nice. i was confused about that!!!

Mulango Akpo-EsambeThursday, April 28, 2011 at 8:45am PDT

What's going on Sir. I'll probably give you a ring a ding this weekend. I should be back on track by then. Just have one freaking freelance project to finish so that I can have money to finish the freaking website. Sad. Anyway, I also made a fan page for the Buy Shack. You should friend it. :P (Black man out)!

Nick MarinoSunday, April 3, 2011 at 4:12pm PDT

hey i just updated the google doc with my idea... it won't work if you've already drawn the strip, but if you haven't drawn it yet, then maybe you'll dig it!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 2, 2011 at 8:06pm PDT

I'll check it out in the morning. And programming what?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, April 2, 2011 at 5:01pm PDT

Nick, I got stuck on the Qatar cartoon, I wrote down the lines on the Geek Doc so you can see where I'm at with it.

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, April 2, 2011 at 4:00pm PDT

Well, well, some of my time is starting to open up finally. Just dive into it. I got two stories for this week, one dealing with a Arab country and the other with google maps. besides that, I know I need a Pittsburgh ComiCon one to post and maybe we can I can finally start the Buy Shack strip. Blah...do you have any programming friend that might want cheap freelance?

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 30, 2011 at 4:58pm PDT

okay, i'm all caught up on the Carbon Copy Squared strips i missed!!! so where should i dive in? do you have any particular stories in the Google Doc you'd like to work with? what's the next step as you see it?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2011 at 4:17pm PDT

ugghhh sucked!!! i got super sick after it and i've been playing catch up all week... finally got rid of my cold round abouts yesterday. haha sorry not to start a pity party (too late!!!). it was just a bad experience. s'new with you?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSunday, March 27, 2011 at 1:08pm PDT

How'd your event go last week in Ohio?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2011 at 7:11am PDT

i'll be at kiva from 1 to 5 today

Nick MarinoMonday, March 7, 2011 at 11:44am PST

yeah that's fine. FYI, an artist i'm working with is picking up some pages from me between 7:30-9. that doesn't affect my ability to talk. i just might have to jump to the other line to at some point.

Mulango Akpo-EsambeMonday, March 7, 2011 at 11:37am PST

how about 7:30ish tonight

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2011 at 5:48pm PST

i can't remember -- did we set up a next time to talk?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSunday, March 6, 2011 at 12:41pm PST

Yeah, I work best by starting with the idea. I usually feel out the strip from there. I do write down some ideas for what the characters will say on the side. But the main idea's and general punch lines based on how to convey the idea and point are what is alway's need. I feel like there is always a funnier way to write something!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2011 at 5:47am PST

i'm definitely looking forward at taking a crack at helping out with Carbon Copy. and i'm game for any type of brainstorming / writing configuration like we discussed yesterday, at least until we figure out how we work best together. so you draw first based on the idea, then write the dialogue?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, March 5, 2011 at 1:19pm PST

Anyway, I guess I'll start writing topics for the week. I wanted to see if you would like to tag onto my carbon copy strip and a co-writer. I want to add the new characters to carbon copy as an add-in. Put anyway. I guess what I would like to do if possible is both write down topics from the week and try and come up with 2 -3 good strips. I'll just call you...lol

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, March 5, 2011 at 1:15pm PST

Where do live again? are you guys leaving a 5? Dang...Yeah, that's my bad on the communication, I had a crappy day at work yesterday.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 17, 2011 at 12:42pm PST

shawn and i still haven't settled on a day to meet up thins weekend, so i'm wondering which day is better for you -- sat or sun?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 13, 2011 at 7:29am PST

Tuesday's bad for me cause i podcast on Tues nights. Wanna shoot for next weekend?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, February 12, 2011 at 12:26pm PST

Sorry bout that. I totally remember you telling me that. I think Tuesday, around 8ish. In the squirrel hill? Or Oakland? If not then, I'm ok with next Satuatday

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 12, 2011 at 11:39am PST

nah, tomorrow's no good -- i'm celebrating valentine's day. my weekend's are normally always the same but this one's unusually switched up. when's good for you?

Mulango Akpo-EsambeSaturday, February 12, 2011 at 10:54am PST

Hey Nick. Lol. I just say your message as I walked out of kiva. Lol. That's cool. The wife wants to do shopping and stuff so the rest of my day is pretty packed. Can you still do sunday afternoon?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 11, 2011 at 7:36am PST

hmmm looks like Shawn can't make it tomorrow, so i probably won't be going to Kiva, but i can meet up somewhere if you wanna talk about this stuff a little.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 11, 2011 at 6:55am PST

okay sweet. my digits are 484 798 7753

Mulango Akpo-EsambeFriday, February 11, 2011 at 5:33am PST

Yeah, I can stop by. It'll probably be around 2 after my B-Ball game. See you then.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 11, 2011 at 5:30am PST

Sunday's no good cause i'm celebrating Valentine's Day a day early. but Shawn and i will be hanging at Kiva Han on Craig St tomorrow working on art and just bullshitting, probably from around 12:20-4:30ish if you're free then.

Mulango Akpo-EsambeFriday, February 11, 2011 at 5:27am PST

Wanna meet up on Sunday around 4ish. I'll be in Squirrel Hill. Or just let me know when your available.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 10, 2011 at 6:35pm PST

I totally understand. I was just saying I got a ton of stories so you know I'm not bringing it up with nothing to talk about... but I'm definitely down for finding out more about any projects of yours that you might need some help on.

Mulango Akpo-EsambeThursday, February 10, 2011 at 6:33pm PST

Hey Nick, we can talk about some potential ideas, but my plate is pretty full and I've actually been late a couple days on the strip. The end game for a project I've been working on can use some help but we can talk to see what I can help you out with, of course.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 10, 2011 at 1:12pm PST

hey what's up man? i've been following your strips on tumblr and i'm really enjoying them. i especially dig your art, great facial expressions! i dunno how full your plate is with comics right now, but i'm wondering if you'd be interested in discussing a potential collaboration -- i've got TONS of stories in different stages of completion, from base concept to scripted, and i'm always looking to get my stuff out there and in front of people. i really like your art so that's why i'm asking!

Oh, and he plays the drums, too. Saw a pic of you strumming the guitar.

LeighAnn Monaghan-PhotographerFriday, February 25, 2011 at 6:53am PST

I'll have to find out from his mother. Here are a couple comparisons of the two of you. You look just like my husband did when he was 28ish. And he's also an artist. He paints with oils and acrylics, and his grandfather, Alex Marino was also an artist and drew cartoons for the newspaper in PA...not sure which one. Here is a shot of you and my husband about 6 years ago. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150107781957427&set=a.35679527426.42932.543397426&theater Interesting.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 25, 2011 at 6:17am PST

well, it's kinda tricky... there's a chance i might be related IF those Marinos are from Philadelphia and they were in the construction business. otherwise, probably not. and to be honest, i wouldn't know anyway because my immediate fam lost almost all contact with our Marino side back in the early 70s.

LeighAnn Monaghan-PhotographerThursday, February 24, 2011 at 5:04pm PST

I think that we might be related....well, technically you'd be related to my husband. My husband's mother's father was Alex Marino...a sketch/cartoon artist in PA (who would be in his late 90's if he were alive). Any relation to an Alex Marino from many years back? His mother's name is Beverly Marino, and her siblings are Antoinette Marino and Alex Marino Jr.

i was thinking the same thing. you'll have to pass this onto Steph cause i'm not FB friends with her. and i totally sent this to the wrong Dan... sorry Greenwald!!!

Lizzee Monster-Mash SolomonThursday, March 24, 2011 at 4:01pm PDT

Wow, cool. Thanks for letting me know! Where was Andy for that pic?

4804301@facebook.comFriday, December 2, 2005 at 8:41am PST

nick! oh man i'm so sorry i never returned your calls. my life got so nuts for so long it was ridiculous (i feel like i've written this to you before.) i had a psycho on and off again boyfriend that wouldn't go away, drama drama drama, all kinda of craziness... anyway, long story short, i want to hang out again! well, i'm going home next weekend for a couple weeks, but sometime before that? well either way, don't forget me and maybe we can meet up next year : )

4804301@facebook.comFriday, September 16, 2005 at 5:34am PDT

sweet picture. hey sorry i missed your call. i just got a puppy so i was out with her and by the time i got back i just kinda crashed. she's a beauty. you should come by and see her some time. she's a pitbull and brindle boxer mix. anyway, again, loving the picture. talk to you soon

Nick I don't know what's going on with Justique but if you're really going to be her care taker maybe you should think that going off your depression and bi polar meds is not a good idea especially since she planned on and did in fact do cocaine in pittsburgh. And if Justique is going to continue to insult Lisa and i by saying how ungenuine our relationship and friendship together with her was maybe Justique should tell you how genuine she is to you. lieing about her constant drug use - ie use of cocaine and other substances. Her selling thousands of pills such as oxy and Vicodin for YEARS right under your nose, having people pick her up to sneak out of the hospital to drugs from the Hillman center? "Losing" her credit card at my apartment because she wanted to get the money to buy drugs. Or did you happen to notice that all of her friends cycled through fresh man sophomores of point park who wanted to party. Which Justique would gladly facilitate if they shared - ie drew, David berry... Most of her Oakland "friends". And other countless other events that I'm sure you can imagine if you take your blindfold off. She's made a 360 on me and I am completely offended and deeply saddened that a girl that I considered to be my best friend can accuse me of being selfish and terminate our friendship at a drop of a hat. If you really care about her like I did. Do something nick. Take your blindfold off. Jordan.

Jordan P. HaskinsThursday, May 5, 2011 at 10:36am PDT

Hey!! Justique is saying you wont let her come to the opening of my show tonight..... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET HER COME... i got her one of my comps and she's sitting with my boyfriend... please please pleas please please let her come! call me if you have any question 518.229.3533 best, jph

Jordan P. HaskinsThursday, March 31, 2011 at 7:55pm PDT

very.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

Thx! :) she is a very good friend.

Jordan P. HaskinsThursday, March 31, 2011 at 7:52pm PDT

Sorry for keeping justique out late! was so thankful she came over. really needed her. Have a good night! lets all do dinner soon! XOXO JPH

Jordan P. HaskinsWednesday, January 5, 2011 at 9:24am PST

Omg no worries man! I was doing some grocery shopping anyways!!! No worries at all !! :) Hope you have a wonderful day! :) JPH

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 5, 2011 at 9:09am PST

hey i'm super sorry about you having to wait so long just now! it was totally my fault because justique and i were having a disagreement and i was having a hard time finding a resolution and she didn't want to leave but she already had her plans with you. so thx so much for being so patient and don't hold it against her pls!!!

Nick Marino, Magdalena Wanda Kazmierowski
Nick MarinoWednesday, August 7, 2013 at 9:45am PDT

Thx so much for the offer!!! But it's not in the episode they've posted online (it's on Netflix too). They edited it out! Bastards haha

Magdalena Wanda KazmierowskiTuesday, August 6, 2013 at 11:40pm PDT

I have a Hulu Plus account if you need access to watch it... Lemme know. ~m

Magdalena Wanda KazmierowskiTuesday, August 6, 2013 at 11:39pm PDT

The whole episode is on HuluPlus... I haven't watched it, so I don't know id this sketch made the edit- http://hulu.com/w/63MJ

What's the sketch? 󾍇

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 6, 2013 at 8:47pm PDT

hey mags, weird question... do you have any friends that work on Saturday Night Live? i know you gots the connections when it comes to the comedy biz!!! there's an old sketch from the late 90s that i've been searching for online and it simply can't be found. for some reason, NBC / SNL hasn't added it to their digital releases of the episode and no one's pirated it on YouTube i'm trying to figure out a way to get SNL to post the sketch on the internet but i don't know how to get in touch with them about it. i figured there's a chance you might know someone who could point me in the right direction. thxxxxxxx!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, February 3, 2013 at 9:02pm PST

DON'T APOLOGIZE!!!!!!!! I love excessive capitalization and exclamation points. I was gonna move to North Hollywood, and we woulda been sorta neighbors, but I changed my mind last minute and ended up down here. No car. I don't leave too often (yet) but I'm sure that'll change. Long Beach kinda blows so far (fucking weird people!) but it's not too bad compared to other places I've lived. I moved here because I wanted to go somewhere different and not cold. LA seemed like a good idea because there are more comics and animation and writing opportunities... but ehhhhh Long Beach sorta defeats that entire purpose but oh well!! haha Anyway, I don't make it up your way that often, but I'll text you whenever I'm in your neighborhood. I'm 4847987753 and nickmarino@gmail, so yeah, visa versa and all. Oh and I'm gonna tell Justique you said that cause it'll make her day. And the blogging thing? HA! Nice, five years later. I forgot I sent that!!!! Well, the blogging thing is kinda defunct but I podcast a ton and you're definitely welcome to join in anytime :)

Magdalena Wanda KazmierowskiSunday, February 3, 2013 at 12:37pm PST

HI!! YAY! Excuse my capitalization & exclamation points, tho this is definitely good news. Yes, I'm still in LA (4.5 years) and I live eastside in Los Feliz, right by Griffith Park/Greek Theatre/ 5/ 101/ Silverlake/ Hollywood. Oh fucking thank god you're out here. I've thought about you often since you moved away so long ago, and I'm stoked that you're doing comic stuffs and putting your art + humor + intelligence out there into the world. At least according to Facebook. Unless that's some elaborate alter-life ruse you've plotted to make us think that that's what you're doing. In which case, you should maybe re-evaluate how you spend your time. You also seem to have a cool chick in your life according to the 45 seconds I've spent looking at her page. Good for you for all of the above. My phone number is 773.931.6319 and my email is magkaz@gmail.com. What brought you to the west coast? How's Long Beach? Do you have a car? I'm a pretty great tour guide for putzing around and looking at fun stuffs around town, so if y'all are ever up for it, lemme know. Also, I just re-read the message you sent me 5 years ago. Yes, I'm interested. Welcome to California, and let's play soon. LoveLove, ~mags 773.931.6319 magkaz@gmail.com

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 19, 2013 at 7:47am PST

yo, are you still in LA? i just moved to Long Beach, so if you're ever down here, it'd be fun to say hi to you :D

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 12:30pm PDT

mags, you interesting in writing for a blog? i figure with all the stuff you been into, you'd have interesting opinions and stories to tell. you came to mind when i was thinking of a few friends who might have something good to say. i know this is completely out of the blue, but let me know if you're curious and i'll tell you more...

Hannah UfnarTuesday, August 30, 2011 at 5:02pm PDT

Thanks Nick! I suck at replying to Facebook messages. I always make the mistake of checking them when i can't respond and then I forget all about it. Now that I'm working I won't be able to meet you at D's when you go for lunch but I hope all is well!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 10, 2011 at 4:48am PDT

hey happy bday! i totally forgot to message you last week when i was in regent sq... but it looks like you got a job! congrats!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:04pm PDT

GOOOD LUCK!!!

Hannah UfnarThursday, July 21, 2011 at 6:22am PDT

No biggie. I have a second interview today with one of the places so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 7:22am PDT

FUUDDDGE! I forgot to message you last week when I was heading up to D's. You find a job yet?

Hannah UfnarTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 12:32pm PDT

thanks for the heads up! I may take up an offer like that if I only find a part-time job and need something extra to make ends meet. But I just got a call for another interview next week so hopefully something full-time will find its way into my lap. Let me know when you'll be in regent square next! i want to know how this cartoonist life works out!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 8:37am PDT

totally unrelated, i just got an offer from a web person (European, living in London, I think) who needs some proofreading done. it would be about $6 per hour for 20/30 hrs a month, so i guess about $150 (could probably be haggled up to $200). not great (at all!) but it's also not necessarily a ton of work and could always lead to something more (and probably done as a taxable thing). just wanted to toss it out there if you're trying to pick up odds and ends sort of stuff.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 5:43am PDT

yeah no word about this lunch today so it'll probably be next week...

Nick MarinoThursday, June 30, 2011 at 6:22am PDT

yeah i'll shoot you a line on mon/tues this week to let you know if it's on (i could see them bumping it back because of the holiday). shannon has been kinda keeping the pregnancy on the low. frankly, i don't even remember when she got pregnant. it's all a blur. you could do way better than scalp picker. but, at the same time, you could also do way better than esa. they're cool at first but they gradually turn into assholes. the cartoonist life is great! but not profitable. at all. i was gonna do freelance seo too, but that sucked so i stopped. and i'm not 100% sure what i have to do to make the cartoonist life work... i'm still trying to figure it out!!! i hope sitting on your ass lookin for a job is at least a little bit fun! i feel like i should have some awesome job hunting advice for you, but i don't. ummm... use monster.com is about the best i can come up with. and try out temp agencies if you really can't find anything.

Hannah UfnarThursday, June 30, 2011 at 4:39am PDT

I didn't mean to send that yet. I tried to jump to the next line but it interpreted my enter as a send. Again, I'll blame Facebook. Anyway, how's the cartoonist life? What exactly does one even have to do in order for that to work? Yes, I am still in Regent Square, for another month at least, just sitting on my ass looking for a job. I'll head over to D's next Tuesday to say hello!

Hannah UfnarThursday, June 30, 2011 at 4:36am PDT

hahaha I forgot how funny you were Nick. I should get a hold of Chris because I think I could do better than anyone who picks and eats scalp dandruff. I don't even think I knew that Shannon was pregnant. I blame Facebook for not informing me.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 29, 2011 at 5:08am PDT

The Uff!!! WAZZUP!!! How was Zambia? I quit ESA last November. I totally wanted to hire you as my replacement (in fact, you were my first and only suggestion) but Lisa wanted to hire someone new (which, BTW, 90% of the time she hires a creepy weirdo) and so she hired this creepy weirdo that picks skin flakes from her scalp and eats them. I kid you not. I trained this woman for a week and almost vomited on my own shoes watching her pick her scalp. EWWWW. I'm assuming that she still works there, but I could easily see her quitting or getting fired. I would suggest looking up Chris Bane and sending him a message to see what's up. Shannon had her baby in May and she's still out on maternity leave, to the best of my knowledge. Other jobs? I dunno. I'm working from home now, launching my career as a cartoonist, so I'm really out of the professional loop. Did you move back to Regent Square? Cause I'm up there the first Tuesday of every month for this cartoonists lunch at D's, and if you're still around, I'd love to say hi. Anyway, good luck with your job search, and if you need a reference, I got you covered.

Hannah UfnarTuesday, June 28, 2011 at 8:28pm PDT

Nick Marino! Your profile picture tells me that you haven't changed a bit. I hope all is well! I'm messaging you because I just returned from a 6 month stay in Zambia and I'm looking for one of those job things. I guess bills have to get paid sometime, huh? I've been applying to places but I am trying to reach out to anyone I know that may have a heads up on something. Anything marketing/writing available at good ole ESA or any other Pgh companies you know of? Thanks if you do, don't worry if you don't! Say hello to Shannon for me too if she's still there too! Thanks Nick

Nick Marino, Lisa Horak
Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 4:51pm PDT

Hi Lisa! How ya been? Dad was supposed to pass along your email address to me, but her never did... so I decided to look you up myself :) I'm about to put together the first book-length collection of my comic strip, Super Haters (http://www.superhaters.com/), and I'm interested in exploring options like Lightning Source. I'm not sure how strict Lightning is about content... I'd say my comic is squarely in the R-rated range, not necessarily in terms of visuals but definitely in language and themes. Anyway, even if Lightning's not the right choice for me, I'm interested in similar types of services and I figure you'd definitely be able to recommend a few of your competitors in that case. I'm sure you're a busy lady, so I appreciate any information and advice you're able to offer. Thx a ton, Nick

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 10:07am PDT

if all i gotta do is just worry about the bookend side of it, i got no probs

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 10:00am PDT

yeah i figured if you're tossing an intro on the front, no biggie. there might be a little bit of silence at the end, too.

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:53am PDT

I can just edit the silence out in audacity, I haven't even dl'ed the file yet.

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:52am PDT

I mean I don't have a prob doing this since I'm not on editing duties this week and it's very minimal, but I wasn't supposed to edit issue 63 right?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:51am PDT

if my silence is a problem, i can re-export it

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:51am PDT

Also - Link - how is it your weekend off next weekend? This week was Beeslo and I

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:51am PDT

so basically just take out the silence Nick still has in there, use CP/my own title card, and call it a day?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:50am PDT

^ Don't even bother with music. There's no way in fuck I'd want to find 1.5 hours worth of MP3s to play, lol. If CP made a title card we can use that though, but, yeah, no images (unless it's of chest hair and broken sinks on the occassion) keep this as basic as possible.

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:47am PDT

Man, as far as editing the throwdown, Link we just adding music and a Col Panic title card throughout the entire thing?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:43am PDT

We all share editing duties (video & audio.) But, it's totally my week off this weekend, so I ain't doing shit. :)

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:40am PDT

i dunno why i thought Link did the audio editing... anyway, Mongo, here's the link to the audio: http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/superhero-throwdown-pt-2.mp3

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 9:38am PDT

Link, I just emailed you the link to the audio for the Yamagato (massive) half of the throwdown. by mistake, I left about a minute and a half of silence on the front. sorry! anyway, lemme know if you have any problems with it.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 3:23pm PDT

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078937/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078938/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103923/ haha I don't think any of these are worth talking about other than laughing at them.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 3:21pm PDT

8 PM it is. Yeah I'm not trying to make a huge ordeal out of this. I don't wanna overly debate every movie on the list. I'm sure a few things will merit more time, but mostly I think it'll just be funny to run down the list.

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 26, 2011 at 2:39pm PDT

I think lesser important ones should be in the lightning round yeah

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, June 26, 2011 at 2:34pm PDT

I think 8. I'm not feeling so great so hopefully we don't go too long with the recording if possible (I know there's a lot of stuff on the list but I can't possibly imagine having in-depth discussions about all of it.) Actually, I just had an idea, and I'm thinking near the end we had a sort of Lightning Round, where it's a simple "Liked it vs. Hated it" or "Good vs. Bad" for a chunk of the films that really wouldn't have much to be mentioned.

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 26, 2011 at 11:49am PDT

i think the normal time for nick is 8 est right?

Ben BeesleySunday, June 26, 2011 at 11:07am PDT

3 Captain America movies? I take it that includes the new one? I haven't seen some of the stuff you mentioned, but I can do a good chunk of that. So what time are we shooting for?

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 26, 2011 at 8:55am PDT

epic

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 8:40am PDT

hahaha

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, June 26, 2011 at 7:57am PDT

:O

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 7:48am PDT

Okay, Beeslo, I like the list. Here's my suggested list (based on yours): X-Men (including Wolverine) (5) Spider-Man (3) Superman (5) Batman (all of them! including 60s) (7) Hulk (2 movies and TV show + TV movies) (3) Fantastic Four (2) Ghost Rider (1) Daredevil and Elektra (2) Green Lantern (1) Watchmen (1) DC Crap (Swamp Things, Jonah Hex, Losers, Red) (5) Marvel old crap (Cap movies (all 3!), Nick Fury, Gen X, Doc Strange, Spider-Man in tights) (?) ??Non-comics superheroes?? (Hitch, Blankman, Meteor Man, The Incredibles) (?)

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, June 26, 2011 at 7:01am PDT

Well, we're gonna put this stuff on a timer too to avoid going into crazy hours territory

Ben BeesleySaturday, June 25, 2011 at 6:32pm PDT

Maybe.

Brian O'GaraSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 6:03pm PDT

1990 Captain America and Hasselhoff Nick Fury should def be discussed

Ben BeesleySaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:55pm PDT

Okay... How about: X-Men Films Spider-Man Films Superman Batman: Burton vs. Nolan Hulk: Ang Lee vs. Reboot Marvel: The rest (Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider) DC: The rest (Green Lantern, Jonah Hex) Misc: 300, Watchmen

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:45pm PDT

yeah what mongo said

Brian O'GaraSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:38pm PDT

well i just meant if it goes to like an hour 20 mins we can split it evenly into like 40 min chunks

Ben BeesleySaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:24pm PDT

woo...damn...2 hours then???

Brian O'GaraSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:20pm PDT

Beeslo, think about this though, I thought this was supposed to be spread over both shows

Ben BeesleySaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:18pm PDT

oh, i thought this was summer movies that have come out so far this year... Man...this is gonna be hard to keep under an hour...

Brian O'GaraSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 5:08pm PDT

i think the big list approach is gonna work best, and then sub categories, like xmen, just go through them all when we get to them on the list

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:54pm PDT

yeah that's why i'm thinking we could group it by character/franchise... or we could just come up with a big list of movies and hit 'em off one by one.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:33pm PDT

I would like to abstain from being there for the Green Lantern debate, 'cuz I haven't had the opportunity to see it yet. I also thought this was an "all time" thing too, and you were going to discuss older movies as well.

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:18pm PDT

yeah... should we maybe group it by character/franchise?

Brian O'GaraSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:16pm PDT

i thought we were doing an all time throw down, like fantastic four and shit

Ben BeesleySaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:16pm PDT

Green lantern, xmen first class, Thor...that's all I can think of that has come out so far

Nick MarinoSaturday, June 25, 2011 at 4:11pm PDT

so should we come up with a list of movies for tomorrow? i saw GL, btw.

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 1:38pm PDT

I guess if you uploaded it on Tuesday, we would upload it on Saturday next week.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 1:37pm PDT

okay, sounds great. when would you guys be posting your pt 2?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 1:02pm PDT

Sure, I'll let you know if things change on my end, but... as per usual, I'd say a 1 hour show MAX for this with it being split right down the middle. We can air part 1 on AudioShocker and part 2 on YIBR.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 1:01pm PDT

alright, so does everyone like Sunday @ 8 PM EST?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 11:26am PDT

Sunday is absolutely impossible for me to do. Naw, just kiddin', that's fine.

Ben BeesleyWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:57am PDT

Sunday works better for me.

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:49am PDT

im ok with sunday night too

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:35am PDT

i'm always down with the standard AudioShocker Sunday night time...

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:33am PDT

Crossover is fine by me. Pick a day/time then that works for you guys, I'm possibly even cool with late night shit on a Friday or Saturday... not sure if weekend plans will suddenly spring up though it's a friend's birthday and we might be getting together and hanging, dunno.

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:29am PDT

exactly

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:29am PDT

FUCK SATURDAY AFTERNOON!

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:28am PDT

I can't do this sat afternoon

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:27am PDT

Saturday afternoon could work out very well for me, i think. also... are still gonna do this as a crossover, so it starts on one show and continues to the other?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:27am PDT

haha yes rinse wash and repeat is what i meant.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:16am PDT

I think Nick meant it in a "rinse, wash, repeat" sort of manner, not that you're only talking about a single particular film. I'm free on like... I dunno... I like Thursdays and/or Saturday afternoons. Really depends on the length of the show.

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:14am PDT

Yeah I thought this was a movie showdown of like, as many as you guys can handle.

Neal ShyamWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:14am PDT

whenever. i'm unemployed, i have a lot of freetime.

Ben BeesleyWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 8:08am PDT

Wait. We just pick one movie?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 7:59am PDT

okay, so for the superhero movie throwndown YIBR/AudioShocker crossover, here's the concept (i'm re-describing it for Neal, mostly) -- Beeslo and i pick a particular superhero flick, debate it for a few mins, and then Link, Mongo, and Neal judge who had the most persuasive argument. does that sound like fun? if we're all down, then the next order of business is: WHEN DO WE RECORD???

Nick Marino, Joe Wos
Nick MarinoSaturday, March 10, 2012 at 9:32pm PST

Much appreciated!

Joe WosFriday, March 9, 2012 at 10:47am PST

I am sure we can work something out. Maybe what we can do is set 7pm as a pre-party to check out the exhbits and 8pm as the start for sketchy?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 9, 2012 at 9:08am PST

Hey Joe, I'm super psyched for the return of Dr. Sketchy's... however, I have a request regarding the start time. Nate McDonough and I run a graphic novel discussion group at the main branch of the library in Oakland every third Monday of the month. It's called Out of the Gutter: http://www.carnegielibrary.org/books/bookgroups/graphicnovel.html Our meetings start at 6:30 PM, and the next one is Monday March 19th, same date as the new Sketchy's event. I really would like to attend both events, and I know that lots of the people who're going to the graphic novel discussion group are also Dr. Sketchy's attendees. I was wondering... could the Dr. Sketchy's start time be bumped back an hour to 8 PM so that everyone could attend both events? Thx!!! Nick

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 15, 2011 at 6:32pm PDT

After we talked, I tried to reach John here on Facebook with no luck... so it would be great if I could get his email address from you (and email him like you told me to do in the first place, which is what I should have done!). Thx.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 2:57pm PDT

Will do. Thx!

Joe WosSunday, June 12, 2011 at 2:06pm PDT

Yes definitely shoot Mattie and email, we would love to have you there.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 2:03pm PDT

Volunteering at the Toonseum -- Hey Joe, good seeing you today. I dunno what it was about our conversation, but it got me interested in finding out more about volunteering at the Tooseum. Anyway, what's the best way to get started? Should I shoot John Mattie a line? My availability is pretty excellent since I'm not working a day job right now, so I'm interested in weekday spots, etc. Thx, Nick

hey check this out - http://cmu.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30614375&id=4801997 - a deuce sanchez sketch. there are both of his looks. i'm thinking his power could come from his suspenders. his real last name could be "sanchez" but "deuce" is his superhero nickname because he's twice everything that he is in his regular form - twice as smart, strong, sexy, etc. what do you think?

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 11, 2006 at 6:02pm PST

hahaha oooo i love bustin thats great i should download it and see what i can do. genius! yes we should def spend xmas eve as two lonely men in a dive bar. that would be hilarious.

NUT BUSTERS

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, November 11, 2006 at 2:05pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 10, 2011 at 9:25am PST

Marcel, what do you want to know?

Dan GreenwaldMonday, January 10, 2011 at 9:23am PST

I'm definitely going, I just haven't reserved my table yet.

Marcel Lamont WalkerMonday, January 10, 2011 at 9:21am PST

I would certainly LIKE to go, but I want to discuss particulars with some of you vets first.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 10, 2011 at 9:20am PST

SPACE... so who's in for sure? i know Shawn, Scott, Nate, and i already have tables reserved. i talked to Jim, Ed, Pat, and Tom... and out of those four, only Tom says he's going this year. is there anyone i haven't mentioned or included in this message that you guys know is going? (well, other than Andy, who i'm guessing is going, right Nate?) should we talk to Bob Corby about putting together a Pittsburgh block of tables? now would probably be the time to get at him about that. me personally, i do have one non-Pittsburgh friend i plan on sitting next to whether we do the block or not, mostly because i see you guys all the time and him i only see at a show like this. even if we decide against the block, it's worth figuring out who's going so we can handle transportation and hotel rooms.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:56am PDT

You never know what people have Nick, that's my thinking. I had so much fun going through your boxes last year, that's why I was thinking of organizing and getting more people together. I'm not talking about a huge gathering, because honestly I don't want to actually pay to rent meeting space to do this. I was thinking of maybe a half dozen of us meeting at a Panera and using their free meeting room on a Sunday sometime.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:51am PDT

Oh of course. You guys still do whatever you're going to do, but in general, would a comic book swap be something of interest to you?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:51am PDT

thx Scott!!! though i have to say that Dan only nabbed a few books for you so i def wouldn't be offended by opening it up to more people. i doubt most peeps are even looking for the stuff i'm trying to find! (Thunderstrike, anyone?)

667251308@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:47am PDT

I don't want to complicate a swap with others at this juncture. And since Nick already let us raid his pantry (and offering the Mutant X issues!), I want to make sure he gets first crack at my books.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:43am PDT

Yeah Nick, I know we raided your boxes last year (there are comics of yours I have that I still haven't read!), but I just wanted to gauge the general interest.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:37am PDT

honestly, i don't have enough comics anymore for it to matter to me either way! i've only got about 3/4s of a long box that'll be up for grabs, so whether it's a ton of peeps or just us, i'm all good.

1276903976@facebook.comMonday, May 17, 2010 at 7:09am PDT

The conversation from last week about swapping comics got me thinking, what if we got organized and had a larger swap meet? I'm sure there are a lot of dudes like us with boxes and boxes of comics they don't want to get rid of, but can't sell either. We could probably find space somewhere and put an invitation out there. I think it would be a lot of fun, like a nerd flea market...lol. Thoughts?

Hi Nick So for the PGH Zine Fair Kickstarter one of the higher rewards included 5 signed zines/comics from some of the folks who tabled at the Zine Fair this year. 4 people bought into that reward level. I was wondering if you'd be down to help out the Zine Fair with one final donation of 4 signed zines? They can be all the same comic/zine or 4 different ones. Let me know if you're in! Best, Andy

Nick MarinoMonday, August 1, 2011 at 7:47pm PDT

hey i forgot to mention this at filmmakers today -- shawn atkins and i normally kick it at kiva han in oakland on sunday afternoons like 1ish to 5ish, drawing and doing other comics stuff and talking shop. if you ever wanna come hang, you're totally invited!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 12:43pm PDT

THX! If I ever have any ideas, I'll definitely send em over to you. Super Haters is probably easier described by the comics themselves, but I'll sum it up really quick for you -- Destruct-O-Tron and Mind's Eye are superheroes, but they spend most of their time arguing with each other instead of saving the world. In fact, they never really do any superhero-ing. There are a ton of side characters. The themes are a mix of the absurd and everyday types of situations. And it's an R-rated comic.

Ben BeesleySunday, June 26, 2011 at 12:01pm PDT

I've looked at them from time to time...can you give me a brief rundown on how Super Haters is structured? Plot (if any)? Characters? Themes? Same with you, feel free to write some YIBR comics. We're more one shot comics so do as many as you like, be it one or ten.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 26, 2011 at 11:59am PDT

Hey Beeslo, I dunno if you read Super Haters much (or ever), but I have this "Guest Week" thing I do once a month. I dig your Yamagato strips, I was wondering if you'd be interested in writing a week of Super Haters guest strips at some point later in the year (in the fall/winter). Here are some of the previous guest weeks: Ross Campbell: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.193278180711157.41750.166363043402671 Dan Greenwald: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.199567353415573.44228.166363043402671 Shawn Atkins: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.214515315254110.53990.166363043402671 One thing worth noting is that I've just switch Super Haters to a Mon-Fri schedule, so your guest week would only need to be five comics and not seven like the above examples.

Hey thanks for the message. I am interested, but to be honest my semester has really been picking up. I think I spread myself pretty little thin, and I should probably really focus on my classes. I'll try to email you when I'm free, but I seriously need to crack down and start passing some tests.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, October 16, 2008 at 5:22pm PDT

so pete is being all "i dunno man i think we should really try and play with [our old drummer] you know cause that would be cool" blah blah blah and that drummer's just going to punk out sooner or later like he always does but i don't think it's going anywhere with that show. BUT if you're down, i think we should still hang and record some music (totally unrelated to Dirty Weekend). interested?

4811568@facebook.comTuesday, September 23, 2008 at 9:27am PDT

Yeah - whenever is good for you. I'll have more time on the weekends than anything else.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 22, 2008 at 7:16pm PDT

awesome! glad to hear it. what'll probably end up happening is that you and i will practice the songs minus pete (guitarist / singer that's in florida) so that way we'll be good to go without even to worry about waiting for him, etc. oh brainstorm!!! we can record our practice and send it to pete so that he will know when all the changes are in the songs! OKAY more on this soon...

4811568@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 6:11pm PDT

Hey good stuff. Yeah, I'd definitely be up for a fun gig or two, just an excuse to get my hands on a set and make some music. It does sound like a lot of fun. I th ink some beautiful music could come from this. Dude, you have a lot of content up for the Unlicensed Attorneys at Law - like 5 albums already. Though I must admit, my favorite stuff so far is from nik furious, which is pretty sweet. Whenever you want to get together and practice definitely hit me up a call / facebook me. My # is 484-515-0351 Thanks a lot, man - and the answer is yeah, I'm definitely down for a dirty weekend. Yush

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 8:47am PDT

okay, here's a link to the project in particular that we're looking for a drummer: Dirty Weekend: http://www.myspace.com/dirtyweekendrocks for now it would just be this one gig and the songs are super easy, so the prep time would be real minimal. and the gig would be SUPER fun, i can promise that. the gig would be december. supposing that you're interested, when do you leave for winter break? i'm in the process i'm building a DW site, so not that much stuff up online now but we would probably play a few of these songs too: Frank Sanchez: http://www.myspace.com/franksanchez anyway, no pressure on the gig. only if it sounds like fun to you. here are a couple links to my other music. even if you're not down for the Dirty Weekend stuff, let me know if you like some of this other music and you wanna collabo. i don't have a place to play BUT i do have the drum kit so if you got a good spot i'm down for playing sometime.

i dunno... ummmm... i guess 50 a night is sorta the sweet spot. my big thing is that i wanna be in oakland or downtown or shadyside.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:45pm PDT

CHEAP! haha

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:43pm PDT

Carissa might know what is your price point?

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:43pm PDT

Hmmm I'll ask around for sure

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:43pm PDT

Ah gotcha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:43pm PDT

hehe hostel!! i haven't done that in forever.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:43pm PDT

that's very sweet of you!! thx so much for the offer :D but i kinda wanna find a hotel or something like that because Stique and i are gonna be really busy, probably keeping kinda late hours and visiting people and stuff like that. coming and going whenever. plus, we'll be on west coast time for the first few days. staying with someone means disturbing their schedule and needing keys and yadda yadda yadda. what part of town do you live in now?

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:42pm PDT

I think there is a hostel opening though another option

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:41pm PDT

just putting it out there

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:40pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:40pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:39pm PDT

You guys can crash here if you want for a day or 2

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:37pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:35pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:35pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 7:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 10:09am PST

Really? On April 20th?? Because that's the same weekend as Spring Carnival, which is basically one huge weekend-long party for all of the CMU students. Their lectures are going to be completely filled with hungover and/or still drunk 20-year-olds :D

Jessica HeberleWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:51am PST

Jessica HeberleWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:51am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:49am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:30am PST

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 5, 2013 at 9:16am PST

!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 5, 2013 at 8:16am PST

YAY WE'RE GONNA HAVE FUNNNNN. talks to yous tonights.

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 5, 2013 at 7:56am PST

Hey my skype name is Uncoveredspace :) Picking up a pair of headphones today. So excited to talk with u guys. You are missed btw

Nick MarinoSunday, February 3, 2013 at 1:46pm PST

excelllllllllent. when you sign up for Skype, lemme know what your username is.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 4:06pm PST

Ok sounds good I do have a mic built in :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 8:34am PST

Here's the topic idea in Dan Greenwald's words: "external art 'support' groups, either live or online, and whether they're a benefit or not. for example, groups like the Cartoonists Society, Assemble, Facebook groups, etc." And yeah, headphones are a must!!! Doesn't matter if they're earbuds or over-the-ear or something you used with your walkman back in 1993. As for a mic, I'm guessing your laptop has a built in one??

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 7:19am PST

Also need to sign up to Skype

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 7:18am PST

Oh shit I don't have headphones I'll see if I can borrow some :) The topic is on supportive art groups? Is that correct

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 2, 2013 at 7:17am PST

Okay, cool. Is 8 PM good for you? And what's your Skype name? Also, you gotta wear headphones when we podcast!! Otherwise, Skype acts kinda weird. And try to have your computer set up in the quietest spot in your place, away from anything that hums or makes constant noise. Did Shawn tell you about the topic?

Jessica HeberleFriday, February 1, 2013 at 7:53pm PST

Yes!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 1, 2013 at 10:02am PST

Are you podcasting with us next Tuesday??

Nick MarinoFriday, December 21, 2012 at 1:00pm PST

Never.

Jessica HeberleFriday, December 21, 2012 at 1:00pm PST

That sucks so bad :( You better come back to Pittsburgh and visit!!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, December 21, 2012 at 12:45pm PST

in Texas now. in LA soon. you'll never see me again.

Jessica HeberleFriday, December 21, 2012 at 11:56am PST

OH NO are you guys already in LA?????????????????? I didn't get to say goodbye :(

Nick MarinoThursday, October 25, 2012 at 12:22pm PDT

ARE YOU ALIVE????

Nick MarinoMonday, August 13, 2012 at 5:11am PDT

no worries, already made plans. thx though!

Jessica HeberleSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 11:53pm PDT

Hey not sure will talk to Christina :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 7:31pm PDT

hey, i remember you mentioning you're going to SPX this year. do you have any room left in your car for the ride down? if so, when are you going - friday or saturday?

Jessica HeberleWednesday, May 2, 2012 at 3:40pm PDT

Thanks for offering though!

Jessica HeberleWednesday, May 2, 2012 at 3:39pm PDT

Hey looks like 2 is too late ;( plus there are 4 of them but there will def be other oppurtunities to draw with kids :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 2, 2012 at 3:24pm PDT

What's the deal???

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 4:06am PDT

as for times, what's the window? we normally don't get there and get settled until 2 PM. but if that's too late, we might be able to meet earlier.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 4:05am PDT

17 yrs old and in middle school???? is that possible?

Jessica HeberleTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 4:03am PDT

that would be awesome!!! They are in middle school so 13-17

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 3:59am PDT

Shawn and I are planning on meeting up at Crazy Mocha in Bloomfield this Thursday to work on comics. If you think that'd be an okay location for a couple of kids to hang with us and see what we do, I'm fine with that. I'd say no more than 2 kids just because the coffee shop is limited in terms of space. How old are the kids?

Jessica HeberleTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 2:32am PDT

Hey Nick I'm looking for people who wouldn't mind hosting 1-3 middle school kids this Thursday for at least 3 hours to show them what it's like to run a business or be a working artist. They would get dropped off and picked up and you can pick the hours etc. These kids are amazing so if it's possible I would be beyond grateful. Jessica H

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 11:06am PST

Phew thanks dude

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:57am PST

to lizzie? i already wrote to her about when i first wrote to you.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:50am PST

Do u care if I forward your email to her?

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:49am PST

Lizzie

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:49am PST

Dude calling her now What the fuck

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:49am PST

im not totally sure yet... but i'll let you know what she says.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:48am PST

oh fuck

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:48am PST

I think the same thing that happened to Shawn happened to Lizzie...

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:45am PST

Agreed

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:41am PST

Yeah she was totally full of shit. I hate people like that.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, February 11, 2012 at 6:28am PST

Yeah to be honest I was cringing when she was speaking no clue why she is so interested in "courting" me I'm really just not that into that kinda pushiness.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:22pm PST

hahahahaha i know you will! she set off my red flag at the meeting because 1. she was saying a lot of stuff that sounded big but made no sense and 2. her business cards were crappy.

Jessica HeberleFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:19pm PST

No problem she better not mess with Shawn me and Stephanie will kick her ass lol

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:18pm PST

I'll forward it to him. THX!

Jessica HeberleFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:14pm PST

You can forward this to Shawn

Jessica HeberleFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:14pm PST

Hey Nick oh my god pyramid scheme what the fuck. I barely know her and to be honest from what I've seen I'm not participating in the magazine. She heard about me through an acquaintance I barely know and I met with her and got a weird vibe. She keeps pursuing me to help her but between you and me I'm completely not interested. Hmm if I were Shawn I probably wouldn't go the "magazine" is something she has been working on for years so I'm not sure how legitimate it is. If she does start to offer people shady shit I'm going to politely ask her to not attend the meetups. Man a fucking pyramid scheme what the fuck. Jess

Nick MarinoFriday, February 10, 2012 at 7:08pm PST

How well do you know the woman sitting next to you at the Artist's Meetup, Michelle? I ask because that "energy business" she was talking about during the meeting is a pyramid scheme and I'd hate for someone to get sucked into it. Shawn had a meeting with her today to talk about both her magazine AND the job she was talking about. She cancelled the meeting but sent her friend to talk to Shawn about the pyramid scheme energy company thing. He rescheduled his meeting with her for Monday, so I'll let you know if anything is shady about her magazine offer.

Jessica HeberleWednesday, January 25, 2012 at 3:49pm PST

I will be at the next one! Even if I get hit in the face lol.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 24, 2012 at 4:17pm PST

twas great, kickball face. XD

Jessica HeberleMonday, January 23, 2012 at 3:57pm PST

Hey got hit in the face with a kick ball right before I was about to come to the CLP discussion. SO FUCKED. Sitting here with an ice pack and a swollen face wishing I was there talking comics.........ugh. Let me know how it goes. I MISS U GUYS

Jessica HeberleThursday, December 22, 2011 at 9:07pm PST

Hey I'll be in Erie for a bit for the holidays but will shoot you an email when I get back fo sure

Nick MarinoThursday, December 22, 2011 at 9:06pm PST

Jessica HeberleThursday, December 22, 2011 at 8:42pm PST

Oh wow get back to Pittsburgh!! Lol I've been busy working on some projects and such not much I will show the outside world though. Yeah I'll be starting up the Artists Meetup after the holidays are over. I miss u!!!! and Shawn and your women Jess

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 29, 2011 at 6:59am PST

Miss you too! I've been wondering how you've been... Things are okay. I've been out of town a lot over the past few months, and I guess it's gonna be that way until after the holidays. SO TIRED OF TRAVELING! What about you? Whatchu been doin?

Jessica HeberleMonday, November 28, 2011 at 6:14pm PST

I miss you! How the f and a are things??? Jess

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 13, 2011 at 12:50am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 13, 2011 at 12:50am PDT

zine fair wrap up is on wednesday but i probably can't go now!!!

Jessica HeberleFriday, September 9, 2011 at 8:51pm PDT

Oh snap when is that meeting at Crazy mocha for the Zine fair wrap up? Is it this Tuesday? Cause this is as wellhttp://home.earthlink.net/~copaceticcomicsco/AndersMarcTour.html

Jessica HeberleFriday, September 9, 2011 at 8:50pm PDT

Dude you're girls writing is amazing. Make sure she puts out more zines and takes them to Copecetic's so can buy them. Thanks!!!

Jessica HeberleSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:49pm PDT

Yeah dude I haven't been around this scene very long at all but I get that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:36pm PDT

Just between me and you, I hope that Andy's thing stays independent from the Toonseum.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:22pm PDT

Oh no worries I just thought it was funny. Joe Wos posed something about the Toonseum having studio space so maybe those 2 could get together. But parking would fing suck if it was downtown.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:16pm PDT

Hahaha yeah I didn't see you anywhere and I'd had my fill, so I split. SORRY! I hope Andy's thing works out... 5,000 is a lot for a Kickstarter project, but maybe it'll go thru!

Jessica HeberleSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 12:56pm PDT

Hey fast walker u disappeared into thin air last night lol. Man I hope that thing Andy is working on happens that would be fucking amazing

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 2:32pm PDT

Shit. Well, I'll let you know when I get it.

Jessica HeberleWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 1:27pm PDT

Fuck I sent it twice I dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 1:27pm PDT

Yeah, I haven't received anything like that. I dunno what to say!!!!

Jessica HeberleWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 1:25pm PDT

No I was trying to message the people attending on FB and it's not going through hmm

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 1:20pm PDT

Jessica HeberleWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 1:02pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 27, 2011 at 3:32pm PDT

hahaha yeah we never traded numbers. s'all good. hope your sis is feeling better soon.

Jessica HeberleSaturday, August 27, 2011 at 12:51pm PDT

Hey dude so sorry just got back from Erie and I need to do damage control. My older sister and her boyfriend of 7 years broke up so I'm headed over there in a bit. Dude I need you're cell I was going to text you since I haven't had internet in Erie and realized I didn't have you're digits! Jess

Nick MarinoFriday, August 26, 2011 at 7:52am PDT

Okay, so I talked to Shawn and we're definitely doing Kiva tomorrow. Are you going to the gallery show tonight?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 5:57am PDT

Jessica HeberleTuesday, August 23, 2011 at 11:01pm PDT

Oh snap that art show is Friday? Hmm I'll try and make it back for that Shawn was talking about meeting up Sat to draw at Kiva ?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 23, 2011 at 8:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 6:02am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 1, 2011 at 3:10pm PDT

Jessica HeberleFriday, July 1, 2011 at 3:00pm PDT

Yeah for a bit I need to head over to assemble as well ;)

Nick MarinoFriday, July 1, 2011 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, July 1, 2011 at 8:27am PDT

oh yeah i'm not under any delusions that i can "fix" it or anything like that (not like it's broken to begin with). honestly, i'm just interested participating and learning more about the zine community cause i really don't know much about it. but if someone mentions the date. you best be sure i'm gonna ask some questions!

Jessica HeberleFriday, July 1, 2011 at 8:17am PDT

John KaryFriday, May 20, 2011 at 4:21am PDT

This is such a GREAT idea! Follow your dreams! I think you will do well with this project as always.

1225052108@facebook.comWednesday, February 4, 2009 at 5:00pm PST

At the con. They sent me an email, It first I thought it was just a generic one, but since I didn't message them back they sent a second one and it said I needed to confirm. I am guessing they got my name from the convention guest list.

YO! I feel like getting back into playing in band, but I don't anyone around town who's making music and I figure you might. I have the gear to play bass or synth (or, ideally, both... seriously... my new thing I want to try is playing bass on my synth instead of on electric bass). Ideally, I'd love to play in a funk or r&b band, but I'm open to talking to just about anyone. Anyway, do you know anyone who's looking for a bass or synth player? THX!

U got it!!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, March 28, 2010 at 10:29pm PDT

yes please do use them... i only have one request -- i want mp3s of them!!! if i can download them from the page, then just send me a link. if not, my email is nickmarino@gmail.com -- Pete's on Facebook if you wanna ask him or email him at peteb2@gmail.com btw my personal view on just about anything i work on (barring situations where i'm doing most of the work) is that everyone puts in equally valuable contributions so anything made off the work should be split evenly. haha i don't know if Pete will agree! but that's my general feeling on things, including the songs we did.

700734011@facebook.comSunday, March 28, 2010 at 4:20pm PDT

Hey Nick I'm doing a web page of songs/productions/recordings/collaborations of mine as a sampler page to try to get work in the commercial/tv/video game industry etc etc.. Would you mind if I put up some DW songs> - they are ruff as fuck practice recordings but give a vibe that i'd like to represent. Of course if any were actually used you'd get most of the money. But the idea is to just kinda show things that I'm capable of writing, but ya never know they might like those tracks:) Can I use that Day Dream song I worked on with you and Let me know what you think. Oh..and If you could let me know within a day that would be special! I'm working on this web page now. XO Do you have pete's contact info so I can ask him too?

700734011@facebook.comSunday, February 28, 2010 at 8:13am PST

I live in ireland nick!! I moved here a year ago:) You have to make under a certain ammount of money to get into those spaces. Not sure if the amount has changed but it's under 18,000 or something like that.. And u have to prove u are an artist. Once u move in u can make as much as u like. The rental company is called SHMS.. u have to pay $30 to apply -the fee is only set up so serious applicants apply and they aren't bombarded with a ton of applications. If there isn't a space u get put on a waiting list. What's going on with u dear fellow? Fill me in !

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 28, 2010 at 6:57am PST

sup? you still living in the artist lofts? i'm interested in applying, but i'm not even sure if i'm 100% eligible or how the whole thing works!

you did, im pretty sure link suggested it on facebook and you didnt object

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 8:36pm PDT

hahaha i liked how black superheroes was introduced as something that I'd agreed upon prior to the show... was it? did i just forget about it?

Brian O'GaraWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 6:24pm PDT

Black superheroes was all links fault

Ben BeesleyWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 5:23pm PDT

Mission accomplished. ;)

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 5:22pm PDT

lol, that's fine. It worked. :) I think you definitely flourish in a non-scripted environment. I had a feeling Black Superheroes was falling flat on its face.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 5:21pm PDT

I was just fucking around, trying to create a weird vibe.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 5:19pm PDT

lmao, what the fuck? Btw, I'm glad you livened things up with Alf, as I feel most of the show before that you were bored out of your mind. :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 18, 2011 at 5:18pm PDT

Both... if that makes any sense. It's all really exciting to me cause I'm doing stuff I've always wanted to do, but I imagine it's kind of boring or confusing to everyone else :) How about you?

Tina PolanowskiWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 5:01pm PDT

True!!!! I just hate being sick, feels like I got hit by a truck. Anything else new and exciting going on with you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 4:48pm PDT

OH NO! sorry to hear that. ehhh, it's just another day, anyway, right? and you already got your party on...

Tina PolanowskiWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 4:23pm PDT

Well, my family and friends had a surprise party on Saturday for me! It was really nice and I was definitely surprised. Today, I'm in bed with the flu :( not a fun way to spend a bday. I'm on antibiotics and hoping to go back to work tomorrow. Guess I partied too hard Saturday and it caught up to me! Lol.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 4:00pm PDT

SLOW! It's fun and all, and you wouldn't believe how easily the days fly by, but it's tough trying to change careers. Doing anything fun for the b-day?

Tina PolanowskiWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 3:47pm PDT

Thanks Nick!!!! It's so crazy busy = Job security I guess. How's everything going for you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 6, 2011 at 3:21pm PDT

Neal Shyam, Nick Marino, Brandon 'Link' Millward
Nick MarinoMonday, June 20, 2011 at 11:11am PDT

Hahaha THX! We have a very strict "okay, hit stop" type of policy around 25-45 mins. We'll stop even if someone still has something to say. And by we I mean me.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 20, 2011 at 11:09am PDT

^ I only like to record for 30 mins too, but sometimes it takes 2 hours of ADHD before we can record our shows, much the reason I'm jealous of how you guys do AudioShocker, you just start talking and hit record and magic happens. :)

Nick MarinoMonday, June 20, 2011 at 11:06am PDT

Hahaha we'll be wrapped by 9:15 at the latest anyway. We only like to record for 30 mins.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, June 20, 2011 at 10:58am PDT

8:30 should be fine (thankfully it's just a routine check-up so I shouldn't be shot up with novacaine and drooling my words into the mic.) I doubt this is as much as an issue as it is with YIBR, but I'm guessing I'll have a deadline of like 9:30 or 10 PM before Cait requests I shut the fuck up so she can go to sleep, haha.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 20, 2011 at 10:48am PDT

YOOO!!! Justique had a bit of a dental emergency today, so that's why I wasn't in touch about this stuff earlier. Anyway, she's okay now, and everything's taken care of... and we gotta figure out what's up with the podcast! Speaking of dental stuff, Link, you've got a dentist's appt tonight at 6... so I'm thinking that (to be safe) 8:30 PM would be an ideal recording time. How's that work out for both of you?

Brian O'Gara, Nick Marino, Brandon 'Link' Millward, Ben Beesley
Ben BeesleyWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 6:10am PDT

Nick thinks he's too good for forum questions...wants his own section of the show called Nick's Stupid Question Time! ;)

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 6:08am PDT

copied to the thread, thx

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 5:58am PDT

Nick, there's a question thread sticky, you can copy/paste that there, or we'll just do our best to remember this FB message when we record tomorrow.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 3, 2011 at 5:43am PDT

TOO LATE MAN I ALREADY WROTE TO THEM AND THEY SAID I"M THE NEW GUY IN CHARGE OF EVERYTHING ON THE SITE THAT HAS TO DO WITH COMICS... INCLUDING YIBR!!! Honestly, I was interested in doing that for a minute but now I don;t care. And what I was writing about the other day was... I was wondering how I'm supposed to officially submit a question that you guys could read on the show. Basically, the situation is this -- I just inherited a Gameboy Advance and I know nothing about it. I was wondering what your fav games are for the device, and what games you'd recommend for a fighting game, puzzle game, classic arcade game, and beat 'em up gamer like myself.

Ben BeesleyTuesday, August 2, 2011 at 8:53pm PDT

THAT'S OUR TURF!!! STAY OFF IT!!!!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, August 2, 2011 at 12:52pm PDT

^ I could see that as a possibility, yes.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 2, 2011 at 12:35pm PDT

yooo i was going to the YIBR forums and i saw the call for writers on the Game Heroes sticky threads. do you think they'd want someone to write about comics?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 30, 2011 at 12:43pm PDT

ehhhhhh massive typo. i don't feel like explaining it. forget about it.

Ben BeesleySaturday, July 30, 2011 at 11:31am PDT

huh?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 30, 2011 at 11:21am PDT

how to a do a listener question / mail sort of thing for the show?

Nick MarinoFriday, July 22, 2011 at 8:38am PDT

yeah i won't say a word. but you guys have been on fire lately with the shows and the webcomic, so i think you definitely deserve it. YIBR should be a main feature on the website, like smacking you in the face when you go there!

Ben BeesleyFriday, July 22, 2011 at 7:58am PDT

Opposite of canceled. We are getting a bigger spotlight, yo! Keep that on the dl though. It hasn't been announced.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 21, 2011 at 2:47pm PDT

YAY!!!!!

Brian O'GaraThursday, July 21, 2011 at 1:53pm PDT

and yeah, once the smoke clears on a few things, you are welcome to be on our show again, you can be our first "regular"

Brian O'GaraThursday, July 21, 2011 at 1:52pm PDT

no, we aren't lol yibr lives

Nick MarinoThursday, July 21, 2011 at 1:28pm PDT

ohhh noooo! are you getting cancelled?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, July 21, 2011 at 1:26pm PDT

I think we could be down for this in the near future. There's some crazy overhauling happening with TGH and YIBR so I'm not sure exactly what our schedules and stuff are just yet.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 21, 2011 at 1:23pm PDT

can i come kick it with you guys on YIBR again when Worst Person is over?

Ben BeesleyMonday, June 27, 2011 at 5:27pm PDT

Lol. Just about right, although I felt the Ed Norton Hulk was a fun movie. Not great, but I wouldn't exactly say I was absolutely disappointed with it.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 27, 2011 at 4:44pm PDT

I dunno if you guys wanna use this, but here are the notes I took on the disproportionately large YIBR half of the throwdown: Both Beeslo and Nick enjoyed the Burton Batman films. But Beeslo digs the Nolan Batmans and Nick hates them, while Mongo has much love for both eras. Everyone digs the Bill Bixby and Lou Ferigno Hulk, but both the modern Hulk films disappoint. Everyone loves Mark Ruffalo's chest hair (I mean, how could you NOT love it?). Link (and Nick) likes the Fantastic Four movies, while Beeslo can't even rate them. Both competitors agree that Ghost Rider is waaaay better than it's rep, but Daredevil flounders despite having potential. Green Lantern sucks except for Oa and Hector Hammond. Watchmen sorta generates some argument... ehhh, but not really cause Neal makes good points about what it does right and wrong. Then we begin to wrap things up with a lighting round... and, finally, winner is and/or isn't announced.

Ben BeesleyWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 7:19am PDT

I can deal with that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 6:12am PDT

hahaha i feel like Link, Mongo, and Neal should be judges. so, Beeslo, we pick a movie, debate it for five mins, and then the judges have to choose who was right. and since three of them would be voting, then there could be a clear winner!!!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 5:28am PDT

There should be a moderator of some sort somehow. Depends on how you guys are actually doing it though

Ben BeesleyWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 5:23am PDT

Just you, me and the octagon!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 22, 2011 at 4:58am PDT

Hmmm yeah I didn't see it yet. I'll have to get on that. Wait.. so the other podcasters aren't around? I think we need a referee and counterpoints, though...

Ben BeesleyTuesday, June 21, 2011 at 10:02pm PDT

No. This is just me and Nick. A battle for the ages. Name the time and place, Nick. I just watched Green Lantern. I'm ready.

Brian O'GaraTuesday, June 21, 2011 at 8:01pm PDT

good question

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, June 21, 2011 at 5:38pm PDT

More importantly, is this Beeslo vs. Nick or are Mongo and I there for this?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 21, 2011 at 5:32pm PDT

super hero movie throwdown -- when is it getting recorded?

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 12, 2011 at 4:53pm PDT

after your date last week, its finally my turn!

Ben BeesleySunday, June 12, 2011 at 3:30pm PDT

You all going on a date?

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 12, 2011 at 12:02pm PDT

yep, we're still on

Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 11:32am PDT

MONGO 2NITE 8 PM MY PLACE!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 3:53pm PDT

great. i'll check in over the weekend again just to make sure.

Brian O'GaraWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 3:51pm PDT

Yep, it's all good.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 8, 2011 at 3:46pm PDT

Mongo, don't forget you're up next! This Sunday the 12th at 8 PM... is that still looking good for you?

Nick MarinoSunday, June 5, 2011 at 6:11pm PDT

I just watched Smokey and the Bandit for the first time like a few weeks ago.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:55am PDT

Whatever you want! Neal, Justique, and I usually talk about whatever movies/shows we've been watching, plus music and video games and comics and pretty much anything else. About 50% of the episode is typically spent arguing or bickering about something inconsequential. Occasional philosophical discussions. This week I think I'm gonna talk about Burt Reynolds.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:53am PDT

^ Shit just happens on AudioShocker. Just show up.

Ben BeesleyFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:47am PDT

In particular topic of just whatever?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:41am PDT

Recording for about 30 mins, probably take about 45 mins total. Maybe even a little bit less if you need it to be. I'll text you on Sunday.

Ben BeesleyFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:38am PDT

Yep! I should be good with that time. How long we recording for? Also, shoot me a text this weekend. Doing a lot this weekend, so I don't want this to be lost in the shuffle. (512) 799-1937

Nick MarinoFriday, June 3, 2011 at 7:27am PDT

Beeslo, you're up first!!! This Sunday, June 5th @ 7 PM CST -- still good with that date and time?

Ben BeesleyMonday, May 23, 2011 at 5:19am PDT

Already there, man. Already there. ;)

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 3:50am PDT

OKAY! Sounds good. THX GUYS! I think this'll be fun, and we'll all be thoroughly sick of each other by the end.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, May 22, 2011 at 10:26pm PDT

I think the 19th is ok for me.

Brian O'GaraSunday, May 22, 2011 at 9:15pm PDT

I'll go on the 12th then unless Link needs me to do the other day.

Ben BeesleySunday, May 22, 2011 at 9:13pm PDT

I'll got first. Cause that way I have a breather before the crossover. I'm sure I'll need it. ;)

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSunday, May 22, 2011 at 6:28am PDT

I'll figure out my schedule. :)

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2011 at 5:47am PDT

I guess what comes next is figuring out who wants to record when. Recording dates would be: - June 5th - June 12th - June 19th And then I figure we'd have to record the two-part crossover superhero movie throwdown sometime between the 20th-23rd.

Ben BeesleySaturday, May 21, 2011 at 10:14pm PDT

I'm good whenever.

Brian O'GaraSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 7:57pm PDT

I can do Sundays at 8.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 7:53pm PDT

lol, sounds good to me Nick. I think I'm supposed to do a Comicbook Pitt with DanG at some point in the futurish... gotta check in with him, but, yeah I can record on Sundays @ 8. It helps that you guys have a firm cut-off. I think YIBR tends to run long because we have a list of stuff we want to talk about, and we want to talk about it all and not leave anything by the wayside, so if one topic runs a little too long we're screwed. Sometimes it's just general Comicbook Pitt style where we'll just talk about shit we're reading and watching and give mini-reviews, I think that would've worked way better for our show with you in hindsight.

Ben BeesleySaturday, May 21, 2011 at 7:44pm PDT

Works for me!

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 2:43pm PDT

@Beeslo: The main Tuesday podcast is normally just myself and Neal (http://www.audioshocker.com/neal -- don't worry if his bio doesn't make sense to you, because it doesn't make any damn sense to me), and occasionally my girlfriend, Justique (she's big into anime, animated movies, and horror movies). @Mongo: We could make it the AutoShocker for your guest episode if you want. BTW, we don't pre-plan anything for this show. We don't have set topics or share notes ahead of time. We dive in and spend about 50% of the time arguing over stupid things. Our five loyal fans seem to like the format.

Ben BeesleySaturday, May 21, 2011 at 2:43pm PDT

I'm sorta hoping its AutoShocker....

Brian O'GaraSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 2:33pm PDT

Am I gonna be AudioShocker or Autoshocker?

Ben BeesleySaturday, May 21, 2011 at 2:33pm PDT

I like it. Who all makes up AudioShocker?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2011 at 2:15pm PDT

A MONTH OF YAMAGATO IDEA... Hey guys, so I had an awesome time on the YIBR show the other day. As a thank you, and a way to cross-promote the shows and keep the fun going, I had an idea. Maybe it's a little too ambitious. I have that problem... Anyway, I was thinking about an unusual way to have all of you on the AudioShocker, and I thought it might be fun if you were on the show one by one. June has four Tuesdays, and it could work out perfectly if you guested one by on the AudioShocker Podcast for the first three weeks of the month, and then we could run the Beeslo/Nick movie grudge match podcast crossover in the final week of June (since you guys post on the weekends, I figure it could start on YIBR and finish up on the AudioShocker that following Tuesday). Upsides are that the AudioShocker only runs for 30 mins and our time from log on to log off rarely spills over 40 mins. Also, we're open format, so you can talk about whatever you want. The only downside I can think of is that we have a relatively set recording time of 8 PM EST on Sundays. We're a little flexible (Monday nights are okay in June, probably) but that time tends to pretty much stay the same. So whaddaya think? If you guys are down, I'd call it "A Month of Yamagato" and promote it like "Link from Yamagato goes solo and faces off against the AudioShocker" yadda yadda.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 24, 2011 at 9:33pm PST

Wow. That's really comprehensive! I think it looks like a great set of questions. The only thing I could see possibly being added would be along the lines of "What's your creative process?" or "How do you work?" But those are pretty general...

Brian John MitchellMonday, January 24, 2011 at 9:28pm PST

Hey guys, I'm working on a set of interviews with comic folks for a QRD ( www.silbermedia.com/qrd ) special. I was wondering if you could look over it & see if I should have any other questions. This is NOT the final version, so don't answer the questions yet. hrt Brian John Mitchell Name: City: Comics: Websites: Images: 1 400 pixels high x 600 pixels wide, 5-10 200 pixel wide images for sidebar. How old were you when you first got into comics & did you always stick with them or did you come back to them? What was the first comic book you ever bought? How old were you when you put out your first comic? Why comics instead of just writing or drawing? Do you see mini-comics & indie comics as paths to mainstream comics or as their own unique media? How many copies of your comic do you print in your first run? How much do you think comics should cost? How many books do you produce a year & how many would you like to? Do you think stories should be serialized or delivered as complete works? How are comic strips different than comic books & which medium do you prefer? How long is it from when you start a comic until it’s printed? What do you better with your comics now than when you first started? At what point in the artistic process do you work digitally? What do you think of digital comics & webcomics? Do you prefer working in color or black & white? How many different people should work on a comic & what should their jobs be? How do you find collaborators? How tight do you think a script should be as far as telling the artist what to draw? What do your friends & family think of your comics? What do you think of superheroes? Marvel or DC? What comic characters other than your own would you like to work with? Ideally would you self-publish? What conventions do you try to attend & why? What do you do to promote your books? Do you think your comics are well suited to comic shops or would sell better elsewhere? What other medium would you like to see some of your comics made into (television, film, games, action figures, etc.)? Do you consider yourself a comic collector or a comic reader or both? What do you see as the most viable mediums for comics distribution 10 years from now? Anything else?

great. can't wait to read it!

615132221@facebook.comTuesday, June 23, 2009 at 1:09pm PDT

I think August 4th air date sounds the best to me... give your listeners a week to catch up and listen. That being the case, sure, let's hold of on recording then. Things are a bit hectic now for me anyway. I'm waiting on a few back-up pages, and I'll get you a pdf as soon as I can. Thanks!

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 23, 2009 at 10:14am PDT

agreed. i was starting to get confused about the recording too... and i was the one suggesting the times! so if we want this episode to air close to the release (and I always air the podcasts on Tuesdays), then we could air your interview on Aug 4th or Aug 11th. which date do you like better? as for recording, if we're airing in early Aug, then we don't have to worry about recording for another month. btw, i'm almost done with the G-Man digest. it's great. WAAAY better than Mini Marvels (and that's saying a lot!). the best email address for me is nickmarino@gmail.com - thx!

615132221@facebook.comTuesday, June 23, 2009 at 10:03am PDT

Any time is good for me if we skype it. If we use the phone, after seven. Looking over this conversation, I think I was confused and mixing up record dates with air dates. So I said July 7th thinking it was a record date, but in reality it'd be best if the air date was later July, which would be closer to the G-Man on-sale date of August 12... if that makes any sense. It's not something I feel strongly enough about that I would want you to be forced to reschedule anything you've already got planned. I can send you a pdf of the first issue also... what email address should I send it to? We're looking at a file size of 4.2 megs.

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, June 20, 2009 at 3:37pm PDT

yeah that works out perfect for me. what's a good start time for you?

615132221@facebook.comWednesday, June 17, 2009 at 4:22pm PDT

This weekend I'm going to be at Heroes Con. How about Wednesday, June 24th?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 17, 2009 at 1:59pm PDT

okay excellent i'm glad you're down. let's shoot for the 7th (maybe a little bit of a G-Man digest wrap up and some teases about the new mini?). i know we've got a little less than three weeks still, but when's a good time for you to record the first podcast? my best days are mon, wed, and weekends... though next monday i have an art thing to go to. oh yeah and 6pm or later on mons or weds. anytime on the weekends except for sundays from 1-5PM.

615132221@facebook.comMonday, June 15, 2009 at 8:47pm PDT

So you're saying TWO podcasts! I like the sound of that! I'd love for a podcast the Tuesday before Cape Crisis #1. As for the July dates, the 7th works fine for me, but if it turns out a different day is better, I'm totally flexible! Cape Crisis #1 is just about ready. I'm just waiting on some back-ups, and then I can send you a pdf. Thanks man! -Chris

4801997@facebook.comMonday, June 15, 2009 at 9:42am PDT

i was right! G-Man was waiting for me at the comic shop. i'll definitely let you know if i want to check anything out via PDF in the future - thx for the offer. if you're down, it might be kinda fun to podcast about the first issue of Cape Crisis ahead of time and put out the episode the Tuesday before the issue hits stores. as for our next podcast, i'm looking at the calendar right now and the episode air dates we have open right now are July 7, 14, and 21. do you have a preference in terms of when you would like your interview to air? if you want it to run earlier, we'd probably have to record at the end of June. otherwise, we can record sometime in the first couple weeks of July.

615132221@facebook.comSaturday, June 13, 2009 at 5:52pm PDT

Thanks for pre-ordering, man! Hey, if you ever want to read stuff in advance (or in the present) let me know and I can send you a pdf. July works for me! I'm looking forward to it it! And I still haven't seen any of the Taco Bell comics myself! -Chris

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, June 13, 2009 at 12:45pm PDT

yeah we should definitely do another interview soon! how about early july? i know that one of our crew is going to be out of town for the first three weeks of that month so that time would work out great for me. s'all good about the Taco Bell stuff - it was just funny to me cause i talked to you and Paul Tobin back to back and neither of you said anything about the comics... and then the week or so after i run your interviews the books come out! i was thinking that the Taco Bell project was a serious secret! i tried to buy those comics but they just couldn't be found at my Taco Bells. anyway, i'm still waiting on my G-Man digest from my shop. i pre-ordered but i think it slipped thru the cracks. actually, it might be there waiting for me right now!!

615132221@facebook.comSaturday, June 13, 2009 at 12:39pm PDT

Hey Nick, I saw you "liked" my note! Thanks! Reminded me to check in and let you know I'd love to do another interview any time you think it would be an interesting addition to your podcast! By the way, I saw you posted somewhere that I didn't mention the Taco Bell stuff during our last interview! Sorry about that! Those strips were done so far in advance that they completely left my brain as something I had done! Talk to you soon! -Chris

I'm so sorry that its taking me forever to get a blog out !! I'm still working on my first piece. other things have occupied me. i'll get it out by the end of the week.

745630119@facebook.comFriday, June 27, 2008 at 11:30am PDT

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, June 18, 2008 at 9:37am PDT

k, sounds good. gimme your number again (cause i definitely don't have it anymore!).

745630119@facebook.comTuesday, June 17, 2008 at 4:39pm PDT

Hey Nick I'm back in town. I've had a chance to look through your website and could definitely put something together. give me a call when you get the chance and we can chat about it. Z

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 29, 2008 at 5:04am PDT

okay sounds good. in the meantime, if you get a few mins, i attached a link to the blog. anything goes in terms of content. enjoy your traveling! where are you going to be working?

745630119@facebook.comTuesday, May 27, 2008 at 6:31pm PDT

hey Nick! Yeah would love to. I'm embarrass to say this, but although I get lots of emails and updates from you, I actually haven't even looked at the blog! I'm currently traveling, but will be more settled in a few weeks once I start working (yikes!). Lets chat when I'm back in the states and you can tell me more about the blog and what sorts of articles you're looking for. my digeridoos are 585-507-5674 talk soon Z

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 25, 2008 at 12:13pm PDT

hey zeenat! how you doing? i know that this is completely out of the blue, but are you interested in writing for a blog? i'm reaching out to friends that i think might have something interesting to say, and you're one of the few people that came to mind. if you're curious, let me know and i can tell you more.

Nice! yeah im actually wearing nothing, im getting ready for work. shoot me a text or something. im free all weekend if you want to hang out or grab dinner or some shit.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 23, 2012 at 5:24am PDT

wait... that came out wrong. i meant to say i'm gonna be in crochester this weekend. are you around?

Nick MarinoFriday, March 23, 2012 at 5:23am PDT

what are you wearing?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 24, 2012 at 4:20pm PST

hahahahahA yeah

Brett WallworkTuesday, January 24, 2012 at 9:29am PST

Oh wait they already did that. Duh.

Brett WallworkMonday, January 23, 2012 at 7:00pm PST

actually i just thought of another idea, every show since the dawn of time has had an episode where one of the characters is presumed dead and the show is all about how the other characters react to the news. destruct o tron could "die" and we could see how everyone else reacts. or you could keep making fart jokes, whatever is cheaper.

Brett WallworkFriday, January 20, 2012 at 10:32am PST

Yeah that sounds neat! What do you need from me? Microphone and all that? Skype? When is this going on? It might be easier to reach me via text at 585-305-1679. But on here is fine too. Later buddy. I have a feeling this is going to go down in history like the police academy movies. As in painful and disturbing.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 20, 2012 at 7:56am PST

yo! do you have any interest in joining me on an episode of the Super Haters podcast?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 31, 2011 at 3:11pm PDT

SA-WEEET! thx.

Brett WallworkMonday, October 31, 2011 at 3:07pm PDT

i got my audio shocker email reminder about new material today. just wanted to let you know its working.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 7:27pm PDT

that's a good idea.

Brett WallworkTuesday, July 5, 2011 at 3:31pm PDT

i was just thinking after all the legal stuff thats happened today, have the supder haters ever been involved in a court case? it seems like destructo o tron should have at least a paternity hearing or some kind of negligence class action suit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 3:23pm PDT

no rush, it's all good. i'd definitely love to hear your input on punchlines and such. i suggested this to you completely out of the blue with no set date of when i'd use the pic and what the story would be, so it's totally open right now.

Brett WallworkTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 2:53pm PDT

i havent forgot about the invite to super haters. frankly ive been to lazy to snap a pic. also, can i request id like to make the punchline and you guys have to make the rest up. or whatever. if you have the storyline all made up its cool too, id still like to be in it.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 4:13pm PDT

fantastic. nickmarino@gmail.com -- it's gotta be in profile (and somewhat hi-res)!! remember these? http://superhaters.blogspot.com/2011/02/super-haters-70.html and http://superhaters.blogspot.com/2011/05/super-haters-158.html

Brett WallworkSunday, June 12, 2011 at 3:48pm PDT

Hahah hell yeah. As long as its degrading. Ill send you somes full body nudes.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 12, 2011 at 3:04pm PDT

Would you like to make a guest appearance in Super Haters?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 3:48am PDT

thx! i'll mail one out within the next couple of days.

Brett WallworkSunday, May 22, 2011 at 5:24pm PDT

38 amherst st apt 7 rochester, new york 14607 im not sure what it is about super haters, but one of the things that interests me the most is that its daily content. i think its a brilliant idea and i look forward to them every day.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2011 at 4:54pm PDT

I'll mail you one! Just send me your address. I also have $5,000 that I need deposited into a Nigerian back account, so please send me your banking information as well as your drivers license number. Seriously, though, I need feedback on them since they're such a young product so any input you can offer would be awesome! There's not a ton of Super Haters extras on them yet, but there will be soon. The cards are such a great product because I can keep adding content. BTW, thx a ton for reading Super Haters and always interacting and leaving comments. That's the stuff that makes it all worth it for me (that, and all the ass... so many groupies... so many loose, floppy vaginas...).

Brett WallworkSunday, May 22, 2011 at 4:21pm PDT

hey nick, i heard you talking about those downloader cards or something on your video. how can i get one, i would totally get one for super haters.

Nick Marino, Trish Hyatt
Nick MarinoThursday, June 16, 2011 at 7:13am PDT

Well, I posted it! I don't know if it's the sort of thing that art students or writers would be looking for, but hopefully it is.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 2:50pm PDT

I know the guys that run the Toonseum, though I'm not officially connected with them... I've been planning to volunteer there, so maybe I'll meet the former intern soon! Free is good!!! I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd love to pay... I'm just not making anything yet. It's definitely an art internship so yeah, I'd be looking for an artist. Specifically someone with an interest in comics because the sort of stuff I need help with is very comics focused and wouldn't necessarily apply to other mediums. I also do a ton of podcasting, so there's a chance that I'd be looking for someone interested in audio recording experience too... although that might be a totally different internship :). Either way, it'd be very hands on experience! Thx for your help. Honestly, I'm really nervous about posting. It's so different being solo freelance as opposed to being with a company where multiple people need the intern's help! I'll probably put something up later this week.

Trish HyattTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 7:07am PDT

Hi Nick! That sounds so fun! You can actually post with us because we are no longer charging employers. Our board decided that they wanted us to switch back to a free service. Are you looking for an art intern or what? Also, are you connected to the Toonseum here in the burgh? One of our former interns is working there! Trisha

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 4:12am PDT

Hi Trish! How ya been? I hope everything's going well for you. I have a quick internship related question -- so now that I'm not with Edgar Snyder anymore, I'm working full-time as an artist at home. I'm interested in finding an intern to help out, especially an intern interested in learning about comics creation, but I don't have any money to pay them or money to pay an internship service because I'm not making any money yet! Do you know of any local services / schools / organizations I could contact about finding an intern under those conditions? I can guarantee they'd learn A LOT and have a bunch of good stuff to do, but that's all I can offer right now :) Thx, Nick

Nick MarinoFriday, December 31, 2010 at 7:49am PST

That works, we'll do it next week before we jump back into Vs. shit for another 4 months.

Brian O'GaraTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 11:34am PDT

last week was too intense for this topic, i guess next week or the week after.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 11:26am PDT

lol, yeah, let's not do non-superpowered, that's why we changed the week of the podcast so we wouldn't do that topic with Nick, despite us not doing it last week anyways.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 11:13am PDT

this is gonna be a good podcast, i can feel it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 11:13am PDT

SHE SUCKS TOO!

Brian O'GaraTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 11:07am PDT

rick jones is superpowered now, i dont know if he even counts. but someone like lois lane would

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 10:20am PDT

BOOOO! RICK JONES SUCKS!

Brian O'GaraTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 9:38am PDT

we could also talk about non superpowered characters like we were throwing around link

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 6:01am PDT

grooooooovy

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 5:52am PDT

Btw, let's aim for 6:30 EST then.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 5:51am PDT

ALF it is! (Just kiddin'.) Yeah, Mongo and I discussed earlier that we wanted to try and avoid topics that would just turn into "monologueing debate time". I'm thinking we can just talk comics and perhaps a bit of fighting games. If we need some sort of direction for a main topic besides making it a glorified comic talk, maybe we could aim for something like "African Americans in Comic Books", which I think is a topic worth talking about with you (I basically consider you the guru on those characters within our circle of associates) and is even apt to discuss with all the Heimdall & Brevort's Comment drama that has occurred over the past month.

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2011 at 4:39am PDT

i have to be done by 9 PM, so whatever start time lets us finish by or before then is fine by me. summer comic book movies might be a little inflammatory cause then Beelso and i will just end up arguing about everything (cause i have horrid taste in films), but i'm certainly not against the topic. in terms of comics, i've been reading Panther, Heroes 4 Hire, Iron Man 2.0, and i just finished the Taskmaster mini-series. i'm really into the Marvel animated stuff at the moment, so i could get down with a talk about that (if anyone else has been watching it, that is). or ALF. we could always talk about ALF.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 16, 2011 at 9:31pm PDT

Also, what time were we gonna do this? I remember saying 6:30ish, but that might change since Beeslo will be there and he's all 1 hour behind us, etc.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 16, 2011 at 9:15pm PDT

Maybe do a very brief Q&A at the end and ask you the 3 mandatory guest questions.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardMonday, May 16, 2011 at 9:15pm PDT

Btw, what topic did you have in mind for discussion? I'm pretty much making it your call. Beeslo suggested we talk about Summer Comic Movies, since there's a plethora of them. Obviously we'll also talk about actual comics though, and also have you plug all your various projects, etc.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 12, 2011 at 4:20pm PDT

Yeah, I actually thought Wednesday was the day we agreed on! So I'm down.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, May 12, 2011 at 4:12pm PDT

Mongo dropped the ball. He has a concert on Thursday that he forgot about. Beeslo might also be back. But, can you do Wednesday next week?

No need to say sorry! I was just wondering what was up.

Jon TowersFriday, May 27, 2011 at 7:53am PDT

I think they are pulling the plug. Maybe a change of venue and reschedule. I don't think they wanted to do it on the same night as the toonseum thing. Sorry man.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 27, 2011 at 6:24am PDT

Hey Jon, anything new happen with the Horror Realms thing? Just curious.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2011 at 7:28pm PDT

Oooops! I'm a little late to the party! I missed this before you sent out the big message. Thx for inviting me, Jon! I'm down for whatever. Fleeting Pages is down the street from me, so I like any events that I can walk to. When I was in there yesterday, I noticed that Friday, May 27th is still open on their schedule. I could be wrong about that, but that's the way it looked. So if you're interested in shifting it to avoid conflict with Wayne's thing, that might be a good date. Just thought I'd throw that out there to see if it helps. But don't quote me on the day! They may have something that just hasn't posted on the wall for whatever reason.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 3:17pm PDT

Yes of course.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, May 23, 2011 at 3:14pm PDT

I'd be interested in participating. Do you think I could set it up to record the talk for the podcast?

Mikey WoodMonday, May 23, 2011 at 1:06pm PDT

well, I just looked and June 2 is a Thursday. I work until 8 on Thursdays. God damn it, man. Fucking jobs.

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:46pm PDT

How is the truck? I can give you a lift if that is the issue.

Mikey WoodMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:33pm PDT

Ah! I thought you meant 5-2. I'm certainly interested!

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:32pm PDT

No . Sorry 6/2. I am on my phone and my fingers are too fat

Mikey WoodMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:30pm PDT

Oh, TODAY?

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:22pm PDT

5/2 In the evening. It is in east liberty.

Mikey WoodMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:21pm PDT

I'd love to, if I can. What day? I work until 4:30. Where is Fleeting Pages?

Jon TowersMonday, May 23, 2011 at 12:13pm PDT

Hello, my friends at horror realms is getting together with the fleeting pages book store and they asked me to do a talk there. I thought I would ask you guys if you would be interested in doing a little talk on your processes writing / art with me and we could do a q&a thing after. I am also going to ask Byron barry and Marcel... I think 3 -5 guys would work well. It is 5/2 in the evening. I am trying to get a little projector to help.

okay, so i listened back to the recording. it's fun... but it's kinda scattered. also, the noise is a little heavier than i'd like it to be. way i see it, there are two types of noise -- 1, the kind you get from electronics and fans, etc; and 2, the kind you get from background voices or crowds or street noise. the second kind doesn't tend to affect the listening quality, but the first kind does. we've got the first kind. and with the way we recorded, it's not easy to edit it out. as for the conversation, like i said, it's fun, but it's also all over the place and hard to follow. this isn't a huge deal, but it might leave some of the first time listeners a bit let down. SOOOO... i've got suggestions: first off, i think we should re-do our first episode. we need a location with a bit less background noise. also, we need need to add some structure to the conversation, as some discussions topics that we stick to a bit more closely. as we record more often, i don't think this will be as much of an issue, but since this is the first time we're trying this, it might benefit us until we get more of a discussion rhythm. Seth, i think you would be really good at guiding the discussion and moving us onto new topics. you did a good job of taking the lead in what we already recorded. so whaddaya guys think? we can always use what we recorded last weekend as a BIB #0 sort of thing, like our very first time... but i think we should probably make today's recording (if everyone is still down) the #1 episode. i'm gonna suggest my place for recording, just cause i recorded there on Monday and i know the sound is relatively clear. how's that sound?

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 19, 2016 at 9:59pm PDT

okay so to confirm... picking you up at the church at 6 on friday and gotta have you at the golden crest by 7?

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 8:04pm PDT

Yeah exactly

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 8:00pm PDT

hahah yeah i'm sure it will be easy to find even without the zip!

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 5:20pm PDT

1308 L Ron Hubbard way, LA 90029 I think that is correct zip. There's definitely only one LRH way :)

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 5:19pm PDT

okay, cool i'll google a cool coffee joint around the area. what;s the address?

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 5:18pm PDT

Oh actually at 6 would be different address. And you pick 😊 I don't know anything around here

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 2:05pm PDT

k sounds good. 6 at the Golden Crest. got a place you want to go to or should i pick sumthin?

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 2:02pm PDT

You could pick me up at 6 actually. Don't go back there till 7 so se could do coffee or something

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

Cool. What time? I think I might be up in the LA area that day anyway.

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 1:59pm PDT

Yeah

Nick MarinoMonday, April 18, 2016 at 1:59pm PDT

Golden Crest?

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 1:57pm PDT

I think that's correct zip

Laura MillanMonday, April 18, 2016 at 1:57pm PDT

Hey! Friday would be fine for me. Address is 1825 n Bronson, LA 90027

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

what's your address?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2016 at 8:58pm PDT

i really don't have much going on over the next couple of weeks so i'm flexible. i just know that i will have a car next friday morning and could keep it longer.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2016 at 8:57pm PDT

my best day next week is friday. how's that one for you?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2016 at 8:57pm PDT

anyway, let's make some plans!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 15, 2016 at 8:57pm PDT

hey bud, sorry i've been dragging my feet on this. been having a down couple of weeks.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 8, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

k cool

Laura MillanFriday, April 8, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

Pretty much any day after 7 is good....except this weekend

Laura MillanFriday, April 8, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

Agh sorry I kept almost answering

Nick MarinoMonday, April 4, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

anyway, got any suggestions for a good chilling time?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 4, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

just realizing that now

Nick MarinoMonday, April 4, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

oh shit you've actually been in LA for like a month

Laura MillanThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:50pm PDT

I'm at a Hotel

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:49pm PDT

What's your setup like? Crashing at a hotel or apt or friends place?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:48pm PDT

Hahahaha!

Laura MillanThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

Well usually nights are spent with my kids not going to bed. Ha! So if you wanna hang out with me and my kids that would be fine! You might end up talking to my daughter more than me though lol!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 3:51am PDT

You and I can go out and do something. Or just chill at wherever you're staying and talk. I'm down with whatever!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 3:49am PDT

I know you're saying nights aren't as good, but do you have one that might be better than others?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 3:48am PDT

Not sure if this Sunday will work for me yet.

Laura MillanMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:21am PDT

Cool!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 12:15am PDT

I'll hit ya up when I'm back in SoCal later this week. I'm flexible.

Laura MillanSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:34pm PDT

Oh ok! I'm taking some classes at my church. I have my kids too so it'd be all of us! Ha! But if that's cool with you we could do like breakfast or something. Sunday morning would probably be better than an evening since usually the kids are tired as hell and not really good company...and then I'm exhausted after getting them down.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 10:30pm PDT

LA traffic is horrendous between 2:30 and 7:30 pm during the week, so as long as I'm not on the road at that time then I'm good to go.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 10:29pm PDT

And nights are actually pretty good too now that I think about it, depending on what your sleep schedule is like!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

No worries, I can make it up your way. Sundays are good! I could do that, for sure. Whatcha in town for?

Laura MillanSunday, March 27, 2016 at 7:08pm PDT

My schedule is pretty busy but I'm free evenings and then Sunday mornings. And don't have transportation 😁

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:48am PDT

Sounds good. My next few days are kinda crazy... got WonderCon today, then tomorrow night I take redeye to see a friend in Nashville for a few days. I'm back on Thursday. After that, I don't have shit going on. What's your schedule like and what's your transportation situation?

Laura MillanSunday, March 27, 2016 at 8:17am PDT

West Hollywood I think. At least near there

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:48pm PDT

Cool! Let's catch up. What part of town are you in?

Laura MillanSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:39am PDT

Hey I'm inLA for probably another month or so. I'd love to see you somehow!

Laura MillanSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Thanks!! 😊😊

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Laura MillanSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 7:20pm PDT

Laura MillanSaturday, July 18, 2015 at 6:36pm PDT

Hey!! Happy bday!!!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 2, 2014 at 7:23pm PST

Cool. Yeah, this might be a bit too last minute for a meet up tonight. Looks like my neighborhood Zipcars are reserved.

Laura MillanSunday, November 2, 2014 at 4:52pm PST

Oh and my number is 415-279-7976

Laura MillanSunday, November 2, 2014 at 4:52pm PST

Hey again. Sorry for the long delay. I'm gonna be wrapping up the thing I'm doing in a few hours. Probably wouldn't be able to do anything till kinda late. Not sure if that would be worth such a long drive. I would LOVE to see you but wouldn't be offended if you don't wanna go through the hassle for just a quick visit

Nick MarinoSunday, November 2, 2014 at 7:51am PST

4847987753 but i get shitty reception here. probably better to FB me.

Laura MillanSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 11:10pm PDT

Don't have your number. Still driving. Will be in LA like 12:30

Nick MarinoFriday, October 31, 2014 at 1:40pm PDT

i don't have anything planned for either night but i also have to reserve a zipcar to get up there (i don't own a car), so once you have a more specific time in mind lemme know and i can see what's available.

Laura MillanThursday, October 30, 2014 at 2:48pm PDT

Maybe Sat actually. I'm going down for a meeting Sunday but I feel like I'll be there late Sunday night. Unless later on is cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:55am PDT

k. so you're thinking sunday?

Laura MillanWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:44am PDT

lol yeah. well i'll probaby get there sat night and then leave monday morning super early

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:41am PDT

it depends on the day, time, and events going on in Hollywood. that infamous LA traffic! haha

Laura MillanWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:09am PDT

oh man, 2 hours....didnt' realize that

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:08am PDT

Hollywood is pretty far from me here in Long Beach. it can take as long as two hours to get there.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 10:07am PDT

gotcha. how long are you there and when did you have in mind for meeting up?

Laura MillanWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 8:49am PDT

Will be in Hollywood area

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 7:43am PDT

What part of town?

Laura MillanWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 12:00am PDT

Would be pretty badass to see you

Laura MillanWednesday, October 29, 2014 at 12:00am PDT

Yo! I'm gonna be in LA this weekend

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 19, 2014 at 7:19am PDT

Laura MillanTuesday, August 19, 2014 at 1:08am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 5, 2013 at 1:23pm PDT

4801997@facebook.comFriday, December 4, 2009 at 11:33am PST

..for the comics

4805284@facebook.comWednesday, June 17, 2009 at 12:34am PDT

sounds good!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, June 15, 2009 at 1:18pm PDT

how about i color them and see what you think?

4805284@facebook.comMonday, June 15, 2009 at 12:43pm PDT

Hey.. My email address is lojeee@gmail.com.. That's the main one I use. In regards to preference.. For one that looks like me I for sure prefer the chick one! That ones awesome--even Jevon saw it and said it looks exactly like me. Hehe. Anyway I like the other one too except the only thing I would ask for is for one who maybe looks younger or something? Maybe since he's not colored in he looks like he has a white beard.. Hehe he kind of looks drunk too... Which is definitely appropriate for a pirate--ha--but I'm thinking more like he looks like hes about to take over some other ship or something. Haha sorry I feel all high maintenance now. Both pics are awesome though!!! I'm totally loving the me pic though.. I'm gonna print that one out asap. :D

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 14, 2009 at 7:32pm PDT

what's the email you're using nowadays? i did two sketches today. here are the links: http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs105.snc1/4589_565049050059_4801997_33282412_6363748_n.jpg http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs085.snc1/4589_565049194769_4801997_33282427_7693256_n.jpg do you prefer one of them?

4805284@facebook.comSaturday, June 13, 2009 at 10:53pm PDT

Hey! Sorry it took a while to respond. Lots of questions :) ... Ok so there could be a color version and black and white if you wanted. There could be more than one drawing if you wanted to :) .. Also, it would preferably be digital and just the JPEG would be fine. And what it's for--at work we have a little game/competition thing and my team's name is the pirates. So I want to send out little things like cards or something with cool pirate pictures on them. I looked for some pirate pictures online and everything I found was lame and dorky looking. Like .. They looked like Santa Claus in a pirate suit, all cutesy almost which is just weird! Otherwise it's all pics of Johnny Depp--also not what I'm looking for... Heh. Anyway hopefully that answered your questions enough. Oh and I could get it/them whenever. Oooooh I just thought of something--could you draw one of me as a pirate!???! Just my face, not whole body or anything.. Hahahhaa that would rock. Ok well let me know!! That'd be so cool! :D P.S. When are you coming out to CA?you mentioned Conrad's wedding?!? Did I already miss you?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 12:30pm PDT

i'd be glad to do it. color or black & white? do you want him to have a word balloon saying "Yarrr!!!"? when do you need it? can i give this to you as a digital file or do you need it in another form? furthermore, would you want the Photoshop file or just a jpeg? also, if you don't mind me asking, what's the pic getting used for? that just helps me make sure it's the right sort of drawing.

4805284@facebook.comThursday, June 4, 2009 at 1:10am PDT

hey, if you ever have a spare few minutes, could you draw a cool cartoony picture of a pirate? just like a pirate face or something. haha i know it's a sort of weird favor to ask but i want to have a cool picture of a pirate, like a guy saying "Yarrrr!!" or something... and obviously you'd make one look awesome. if not, no biggy. but i thought i'd ask. :)

4805284@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 8:38am PDT

haha yeah it would be sweet. :) it's awesome! my hubby's out of town though... so right this second, well, that's my answer. :)

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 8:37am PDT

oh man i feel silly now i totally thought it meant that you chilled on a boat all the time! well i hope you do get the boat job. that would be SWEET!!! so how's married life?

4805284@facebook.comThursday, September 18, 2008 at 4:16pm PDT

hey, whoa i took a while to answer this. no, i'm not in the sea org. :) there is one picture i think of me on the boat. i was vacationing in the carribbean. :D i'm working at the church and i'm on staff and everything, but the sea org is a little different. members of the sea org run the management organizations--so i'm in my one church but there is a higher level one that watches over mine and other ones in california and stuff. as far as i know there are other churches that sort of have the same thing going on... theres the littler ones that are watched over by the bigger ones of the areas etc etc. anyway so that's what i do. :) i'm most definitely on land here in san francisco. maybe someday i'll be working on the boat cuz man it's REALLY nice! it just travels the carribbean all the time... :) oh and dont worry about checking my profile details or whatever because i really have barely any information on there. hehe.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 10, 2008 at 4:23pm PDT

i thought you were still doing the sea org thing! that involves a boat right? haha plus you have a bunch of pics on a boat too. forgive me if i didn't read your facebook "details" i'm eally bad about checking those sort of things

4805284@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 12:55pm PDT

Wow you're fast too! :) You have Bob! That's so cool. I saw photos on your page but I didn't know if that was just from a visit. On the boat...? I don't get it.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 12:52pm PDT

you're fast! PA is alright. it's gonna get cold soon which SUCKS. bob lives with me now which is fun but a pain in the ass. how's the boat (cause you're still on the boat, right???)?

4805284@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 12:46pm PDT

Cool well thanks. I totally would have loved to have you here! :) How's life in PA?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 9, 2008 at 12:42pm PDT

you didn't have to invite me, just tell me! i'm definitely happy for you. no need to be apologetic. i'm more teasing you than anything. congrats!!!

4805284@facebook.comSunday, September 7, 2008 at 12:02am PDT

Hey, I know... I actually really wanted to invite you but I couldn't make it quite as big as I wanted it to be. I guess I could say lots of things but I'm basically a shmuck for not saying anything. It's pretty dumb of me to think you may have had any type of reaction but a really nice one or be real happy for me. I have a feeling that might be what you're thinking, or maybe laughing at how silly it sounds. Well I hope you're doing well. I'd like to keep in touch more often. I miss you man! Dirty Weekend comes on my ipod every once in a while....makes me laugh. :)

Oh man, I am totally jealous Nick! Once I organize my comics I'll probably post my haul on facebook for kicks if anyone was curious what I spent all that time doing. Also Jealous of Dan's Secret Six find. :) @Jeff, Dan Slott did a lot of Batman stuff and then a lot of Disney-esque and/or cartoon related stuff if I remember right.

1550476785@facebook.comSunday, November 7, 2010 at 3:53pm PST

I can finally go forward with my "Monolith" reading. I was fun. Dan Slott? From 1993? what did he do from 1993 until 2001?

784978277@facebook.comSunday, November 7, 2010 at 3:30pm PST

619871688@facebook.comSunday, November 7, 2010 at 3:17pm PST

Haha, I spent too much time looking at comics today. Going to be comic free for the rest of the night. :) Hope I didn't hold you guys up while I was drowning in dusty dollar boxes.

LOL...that's okay, I just figured Link was in a hurry to get home and dive into his comics.

Dan - Sorry for cutting you off, I didn't realize the lane ended. I think my passengers may have shat their pants a little on that one.

I've never used the program to record in mono. Personally, I prefer the stereo recording because it gives me some extra flexibility when it comes time to clean up the audio. But I assume it would record just fine.

Brian O'GaraTuesday, January 7, 2014 at 3:33pm PST

Link wants to know if there are any difficulties recording in mono vs stereo

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 7, 2014 at 2:08pm PST

no prob. i'm looking forward to the return.

Brian O'GaraTuesday, January 7, 2014 at 2:07pm PST

thanks really appreciate the help!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 7, 2014 at 2:04pm PST

I made my list of CallGraph quirks into this Tumblr post: http://nickmarino.tumblr.com/post/72590457044/over-the-years-ive-had-a-lot-of-people-ask-me

Brian O'GaraMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:47am PST

Thanks

Brian O'GaraMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:47am PST

Yeah pc is what we all have

Nick MarinoMonday, January 6, 2014 at 7:38am PST

callgraph is insanely reliable if you know how to navigate the quirks, so that's not an issue. the only thing is that i don't know how long it's going to be functional since Skype was going to cancel all desktop API activity at the end of 2013. but it's a good free solution in the meantime! i'll write out the things to remember about it either today or tomorrow. if you don't have them from me by weds, pls send me a reminder because that means i'm being a dumbass and forgot! oh, and it's PC only. is that okay?

Brian O'GaraSunday, January 5, 2014 at 12:00pm PST

reliability/sound quality are the most important things for us as those have been the hardest for us to find. im sure we can deal with some quirks as long as we aren't 45 mins into a discussion and our program crashes (which has happened on multiple occasions and lead to fury lol)

Nick MarinoSunday, January 5, 2014 at 11:38am PST

i use callgraph. it's free and it's fairly reliable. at this point, it's probably borderline outdated, but at the same time i've been using it for going on five years so it's pretty stable. there are a few really important quirks to know about it, so if you guys decide to give it a shot, let me know and i can either type that out for you or we can discuss it over skype.

Brian O'GaraSaturday, January 4, 2014 at 10:01pm PST

hey nick, we are currently figuring out what kind of skype recording program to use for yibr since we are starting it up again very soon. what program do you use and are you happy with it?

Brian O'GaraMonday, June 13, 2011 at 9:46am PDT

lol ok

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:01am PDT

I just hung up.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:01am PDT

BTW, it wasn't Skype...

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:00am PDT

I'm still sending you messages.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:00am PDT

Good conversation.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:00am PDT

It was fun.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 13, 2011 at 5:00am PDT

Thx for coming on the show!!!!

Brian O'GaraSunday, June 12, 2011 at 6:13pm PDT

Yeah I don't know how/why I lost your call there at the end, but I still have my internet, so I am going with Skype sucks. Had fun with you guys. I would come on your show whenever you want. Thanks again.

Dear Readers, You must be all wondering why hasn't been no updates for alterverse site? Last february 'til last week, wordpress suffered one of it's worst hacker or dDos attacks which reportedly came from China (see: http://techcrunch.com/2011/03/03/wordpress-com-suffers-major-ddos-attack/ ; http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/221467/wordpress_ddos_attacks_came_from_china.html; http://100gf.wordpress.com/2011/03/04/wordpress-nailed-in-masssive-ddos-attack/ ). Our site was one of those who suffered and was crippled from the server breakdown cripling our site for many weeks thus resulting with missing and broken images and links. Currently we are re-buliding our site from the ground up again and in a possible new address and it may takes less than a month before we could return in full normal operation. We hope you bear with us during this hard times and rest assure when we come back again expect more goodies to come again on a regular basis. We'll keep you posted once we're back to normal. Yours truly, Alterverse p.s. BRIGHTEST DAY series, CHAOS WAR and Amazing Spider-Man series (from One more day to present storyline!) coming up!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 2:46pm PDT

sounds good to me

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 2:43pm PDT

2 is fine... i might even try to get there a bit earlier. i could go for either location, although i'm leaning towards kiva because phantom is having a signing tomorrow, and i was just at copacetic this weekend. also, i'm planning on go to copacetic next week for their anniversary sale. so if you two are down, maybe kiva/phantom this week, and lili/copacetic next week.

Jessica HeberleTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 6:09am PDT

Ha ha 2pm would work I have to drive to Erie later so earlier works good. p.s. We could go to Copecetic they are open wed ;)

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 6:06am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 14, 2011 at 1:18am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 2:49pm PDT

Scanner's acting up. I have to uninstall and reinstall it, may or may not work, so I might not have it over to you tonight.

Jason R BenderSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 2:23pm PDT

So if want to send it to me, Ill do that tonight and send it back via email tonight...

Jason R BenderSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 2:22pm PDT

I also was going to remove the action lines and do them again in illustrator, so it looks nicer.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 1:14pm PDT

I just got it!!! It looks good. I'll scan it later today. What are your letters gonna say?

Jason R BenderThursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:48pm PDT

I just feel bad cause you asked for these and I said yes, and took forever.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:47pm PDT

that's okay

Jason R BenderThursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:42pm PDT

Thanks... Sorry the damn thing took so long. Long story, but I had it over a week ago, and stuff happened.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:42pm PDT

sure :)

Jason R BenderThursday, September 1, 2011 at 12:31pm PDT

Hey man, you should be getting that soon. When you do get it, can you scan it and send it back? I need to fix something on it, and I'll letter it too. Cheers

Jason R BenderSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:20am PDT

Sounds good!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:19am PDT

Whatever you want. You don't have to write anything if you feel like the piece says everything on its own. But you can give some background on it if you'd like.

Jason R BenderSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:15am PDT

What all do you want for the blog post too?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:14am PDT

yeah i'll be there!

Jason R BenderSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:12am PDT

Thanks man. You are my own personal savior! :). Anyhow, if you are attending PIX I should see you there this year!

Nick MarinoSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:11am PDT

Yeah, no prob, I can toss the letters on there, just tell me what you need.

Jason R BenderSunday, August 21, 2011 at 6:08am PDT

No prob man... Thanks for letting me. With all thats gone on in my life these last 4.5 weeks I was worried I would not get anything done. Also I was not able to do any lettering ( my hand lettering sucks) so if you scan it in, would you be up for typing a few words on it if I give you the script? If you can't cause of time, it's cool, maybe I'll try to hand letter it again... I just don't want it to look like cuneiform...lol

I'll create an event tonight or tomorrow morning, so there's an official time & place. Doesn't seem like there's going to be the traditional Saturday night dinner, so Sunday is likely going to be the night.

Kristoffer A. SmithThursday, April 14, 2011 at 5:26pm PDT

Ment to respond sooner got distracted with a deadline... I'd like to meet up after one of the shows. I dont have too much gon gon after wards. im meeting up with a budd, Damion on sat thought maybe we could join this lil doda. I'm all about the artist social Hour. Is there an official day?

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, April 14, 2011 at 8:10am PDT

Oh, no pressure, really. I understand Post-Con-Stress Disorder as much as anyone! Everyone's invited though, not just those going to Comicon -- it's for our whole "family", just so we get a chance to hang without worrying about being back at our tables and selling books, etc.. I'm looking at you, Barry...! ;^)

Dan GreenwaldThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:52am PDT

I'm probably in the same boat as Dave & Kristin; I want to hang, but it depends on my level of con fatigue. And of course the next day is a work day which seems to come very early after a con weekend...

Kristin RossThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:50am PDT

Aw, Marcel! If I'm not too tired and I even make it on Sunday, I will try. But I can't make any promises because I don't want to ruin my reputation as Queen Flake.

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:40am PDT

Okay, we'll have Mikey there to dude-i-fy it up. So we're back at quota. 8^) KRISTIN! You're making me CRY! Give us a minute. Maybe two. Two minutes! Please!!! Don't hate your friends! 8^)

Kristin RossThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:36am PDT

I have to work the next day, so alas...

Mikey WoodThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:35am PDT

I don't know about you guys, but I'm 100% dude. All man. From the top of my oddly-shaped head to the tip of my Fred Flintstone toes.

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:33am PDT

@ Mikey: Cool! @ Dave: Totally understood! @ Byron: Do firehoses count? And really, do any of us qualify as dudes? ;^)

Byron WintonThursday, April 14, 2011 at 7:29am PDT

Ugh, more stanky nerds in the same room? Ok, I'll consider this... ONLY if there's showers involved. Ps. No dudes allowed.

Dave WachterWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 10:53pm PDT

I may be down for this, but as others said, it depends on whether I'm all tuckered out or not.

Mikey WoodWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 8:36pm PDT

Wherever is fine with me : )

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:28pm PDT

YEAH!!!! 8^) (And remember, Seth, Paige is invited too!)

Seth FronzoliWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:06pm PDT

I'm TOTALLY down for this!

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:35pm PDT

Smokin' Joe's on the South Side. Brillobox in Bloomfield/Lawrenceville (which worked nicely for a number of us to get together the Saturday of PIX). New Amsterdam in Lawrenceville. All of these have got good food and drinks, and we should be able to spread out and chill. Mikey, I'm not opposed to Dee's, but I'd kinda prefer no smoking. That's just me, though. Con lets out at 5 on Sunday, so I was thinking 7PM 'til... and we can just show up and take off as we'd like. Gimme feedback and I'll pick a place and post it!

Mikey WoodWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:23pm PDT

DEE'S DOGS AND SUDS! AWWWW YEAH!

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 6:07pm PDT

Any thoughts about where we want to go?

Chris MaverickWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 5:47pm PDT

I'm in the same boat. Sounds fun. Depends on how tired I am and when it is.

Scott HedlundWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 5:42pm PDT

I'll play it by ear, but I'll probably be in.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 5:32pm PDT

Depends on the time and place... what did you have in mind?

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 5:05pm PDT

sure im down

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, April 13, 2011 at 4:05pm PDT

Friends - So...who's up for a get-together after the Comicon closes on Sunday? A few of us discussed this during and after S.P.A.C.E., and thought it was a good idea. And of course, EVERYONE'S invited, not just those of us attending or setting-up at the Con. As well as spouses and significant others and friends. Who's interested...? Show of hands, please! 8^)

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiFriday, August 17, 2012 at 8:37am PDT

LOL - we should probably go to the bar we got kick out of. What's your number?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 7:50am PDT

I live in Shadyside (corner of Negley and Centre) which is right near Ellsworth (and the bar we got kicked out of!) as well as Walnut Street. Tons of places around there and I'm fine with any of them. But I'm also down for somewhere that's closer to wherever you are, if you prefer.

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiFriday, August 17, 2012 at 7:27am PDT

Bar. Which?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 7:04am PDT

Hmmmm... coffee shop or bar? Those are the two best kinds of places I can think of.

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiFriday, August 17, 2012 at 6:27am PDT

Gotcha. OK, cool, where do you want to meet?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:57am PDT

wilkes-barre. was visiting my sister in long island and stopped here overnight on the way back. i dunno exactly how long it takes you to get to pleasant hills, but i'm down to hang out for an hour or two before you gotta split.

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:43am PDT

Where are you?

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:43am PDT

Haha, yes. But I have to be in Pleasant Hills by 6.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 17, 2012 at 5:14am PDT

hahaha very random. i'll be getting back into PGH around 3:30-4 this afternoon if traffic doesn't suck!! i'm guessing you're in da burgh, right? :D

Michelle Nicholson BlonskiThursday, August 16, 2012 at 5:36pm PDT

What are you doing tomorrow afternoon ish? (yes, random)

24404254@facebook.comFriday, June 11, 2010 at 4:13pm PDT

How much does it cost to rent a car vs take the bus? How are you going to get around when you get to Roc?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, June 11, 2010 at 4:11pm PDT

hey so you'd probably know this better than anyone else i know... what's the best way to get to roch from pit? it looks like there aren't any direct flights... but the flights are cheap enough. did you ever bus it? how about train? obviously drive, but i'd have to rent a car

4801997@facebook.comThursday, November 5, 2009 at 1:05pm PST

yeah i think i'[m gonna nab it from somewhere

24404254@facebook.comMonday, November 2, 2009 at 5:10am PST

Sorry, don't have it. I think it was called Multimedia Fusion though. It looks like there's a version 2 out. You could probably download it from somewhere.

4801997@facebook.comSunday, November 1, 2009 at 1:25pm PST

YES! i wanna score a copy of it... i think i threw mine away. it seems like it would be fun to make one of those games...

24404254@facebook.comWednesday, October 28, 2009 at 2:38pm PDT

I don't. Are you trying to recreate Super Mario Brothers? Haha.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, October 28, 2009 at 2:01pm PDT

remember that video game software we used to teach the kids how to make games... do you happen to have a copy of that hanging around?

24404254@facebook.comWednesday, February 15, 2006 at 6:08pm PST

haha, i don't think i have a good enough shot yet

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, February 15, 2006 at 12:06pm PST

would have been more fun if you shot dick cheney. btw, could you kill him for me? thanks.

24404254@facebook.comWednesday, February 15, 2006 at 5:40am PST

haha, no...but i shot 3 different guns...it was randomly fun

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, February 14, 2006 at 9:12pm PST

24404254@facebook.comTuesday, February 14, 2006 at 4:33am PST

24404254@facebook.comTuesday, January 31, 2006 at 2:18pm PST

gotcha...i did that for one summer. i don't know any seahawks fans here...my one friend is going to root for them but just cuz he doesn't want the steelers to win

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, January 31, 2006 at 6:17am PST

i'll handle the front desk for them. superbowl will kind of be a party... i'll be delivering pizzas. do you have any seahawks fans at RIT?

24404254@facebook.comTuesday, January 31, 2006 at 5:18am PST

4801997@facebook.comMonday, January 30, 2006 at 10:38am PST

damn, you're pushy. ok there's this 45 yr old lady that worked there whose entire life was that job (she lives at home, doesn't even drive). my boss was berating her one day so i wrote her a little note that said "don't sweat it. i think you're doing a good job. let me know if i can help." my boss says a couple days later "i have to let you go." i'm like "ok, why?" he says "you don;t understand authority around here. i found the note you wrote debbie." i'm like "ok. and... ?" and he's like "it undermines my authority." whoo fingers tired. happy?

24404254@facebook.comMonday, January 30, 2006 at 8:36am PST

we have family friends that are going to go i think...i'm sure you have spare time to type it up!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, January 30, 2006 at 7:34am PST

the firing takes too long to type. it's a good story tho. do you know anyone going to the superbowl?

24404254@facebook.comMonday, January 30, 2006 at 6:28am PST

obviously pumped about the steelers!!! but what about the firing???

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, January 28, 2006 at 9:24am PST

24404254@facebook.comFriday, January 27, 2006 at 10:08pm PST

I'm in for Vol 2. Now to figure which characters I hate. 8^)

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 10:59am PDT

i'm looking forward to all this good-natured hate.

100000139039989@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 8:44am PDT

haha, least favorite characters, cool. who do i hate, hmm, there are so many...

609323093@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 6:25am PDT

Yep, looking forward to the ashcans...and also trying to think of a good character I can't stand! 8^)

719950096@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 6:25am PDT

Congrats on getting it all together, Nick. :) I'm sure it looks great! I'll be in on volume 2. I'm not sure who my least favorite superhero/supervillian is though. Like you said, I'm kinda a hater so I have a long list of 80s/90s characters that really bug me.

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 12:05am PDT

Great job Nick, can't wait to see the ashcans. Oh, I'm also in for Vol 2.

hey all - the Project Basement ashcans have arrived! they were a son of a @#$%^ to to get printed at first, but it worked out beyond well in the end. so what does this mean to you? first off, anyone who contributed gets copies! i'll be distributing them to my Pittsburgh contributors over the next week. as for long distance peeps, we'll work everything out soon as well. secondly, i think that this first volume has been enough of a success so far (just in terms of the quality of contribution, the diversity of style, and the enjoyment factor for everyone involved) to say that PB volume 2 is a go! i know some of you have already prepped stuff for v2, and i think it's going to be great! BUT... for those of you not feeling the muse this time around, i'd like to add an extra option onto the Project Basement rules -- now, not only do i want to see you favorite characters from comics/games/movies/tv/etc... i also want to see your LEAST FAVORITE characters! and i want to know why you hate them! i think that'll generate some good conversation on the blog, and it'll keep things interesting for us artists. so thx to everyone who contributed. if you're on this message but didn't contribute, pls feel free to join in on v2. and make sure to share the invite to Project Basement w/ your friends! the more artists with different styles, the better!

619871688@facebook.comThursday, July 29, 2010 at 11:52am PDT

Nick, I'll try to bring my amateur hour stick figures on Sunday. :)

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, July 29, 2010 at 10:58am PDT

okay

4801997@facebook.comThursday, July 29, 2010 at 10:43am PDT

the deadline for inclusion in the current Project Basement set of sketches nears! if you still want to have your sketch run in the Project Basement v1 ashcan (or depending on response, the ONLY PB ashcan), make sure you email me your sketch by the end of this weekend. thx again to everyone who's contributed! there's a lot of good art and the submissions just get better and better.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, June 29, 2010 at 10:17am PDT

hey all - just wanted to send out a PB update! thx again to everyone who contributed. the art is fantastic. so far, i've received work from 11 artists (three of whom have already given me two pieces!). i've scheduled out at least one piece from everyone so far. here's the schedule: July 4 - Captain America by Pete Borrebach July 11 - Danger Mouse by Alyssa Ference July 18 - Hulk by Dan Greenwald July 25 - Super Girl by Scott Hedlund August 1 - Hawkeye by Wayne Wise August 8 - Poison Ivy by Aimee Cummings August 15 - Dazzler by Kaylie McDougal for those who gave me two pieces, i'll schedule the second pieces once everyone has had one posted. and if you have any friends that want to contribute or might be interested, send 'em my way! i'll be starting work on the zine/ashcan collection in early august. i should be at Fan Expo Canada in late August, where i'll have them (if they give me a table, that is!), and i'll definitely have them ready and mailed out by early Sept (in time for the Pittsburgh Small Press Fest!).

619871688@facebook.comThursday, June 17, 2010 at 4:44pm PDT

Maybe I'll get you my stuff someday nick. My sketch book is at work, they're mostly little doodles, definitely the bottom of the basement. :)

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 17, 2010 at 4:11pm PDT

the art has really started to pour in over the past week or so, and i gotta tell you all -- it looks incredible!!! i can't wait for everyone to see this stuff. thx so much to those who've submitted something (which, at this point, is almost all of you). it's really gratifying to know that many of you enjoyed doing your first drawing so much that you've already given me (or plan to do) a second one. AWESOME! if you have any friends that express interest in PB / like what they see, pls don't hesitate to invite them to contribute. i don't want anyone to feel left out!

4801997@facebook.comSunday, June 13, 2010 at 6:19pm PDT

nickmarino@gmail.com -- can't wait to see it!!!

719950096@facebook.comSunday, June 13, 2010 at 5:41pm PDT

Nick, I'm almost done. Where do I email it to you?

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, June 11, 2010 at 8:14am PDT

It's all good man, I just couldn't remember if I actually sent it or if I imagined it! lol

4801997@facebook.comFriday, June 11, 2010 at 8:05am PDT

YES! so sorry i forgot. i just starred it in my email and added it to the schedule - July 18 - Hulk by Dan Greenwald

1276903976@facebook.comFriday, June 11, 2010 at 7:29am PDT

Nick, I sent you that Hulk pic, right?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 10, 2010 at 1:11pm PDT

s'all good. i'm going to (hopefully, if my application gets accepted) have a table at FanExpo Canada at the end of August, so that's when i hope to have the PB zine all ready. so if you want to be in the zine, just make sure to have your art to me by the end of July (but the sooner you get it to me, the sooner is goes up on the site!).

719950096@facebook.comThursday, June 10, 2010 at 12:39pm PDT

Sorry, I'm sooooooo behind. I'll try to draw this weekend... Failing that I'll draw something really awesome during my flight next weekend. Been embroiled in the land of sculpting... Just finished my production masters for ine project, then finished the prototype for the Shadoweyes figure, though I may end up redoing the tail since I'm way off of canon on it and that vexes me... Ross is, of course, too nice to mention it! ;). I feel like I have a million years of molding ahead of me before I can cast these stupid things.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 10, 2010 at 12:29pm PDT

awesome! can't wait to see it.

774680272@facebook.comThursday, June 10, 2010 at 11:19am PDT

I have a Hawkeye sketch waiting for you at the store.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, June 10, 2010 at 11:00am PDT

hey i just want to send a HUGE thx to everyone that's contributed art thus far. here's the schedule (including what's already been posted and what's going up through mid-July): May 30 - Wonder Woman by Shawn Atkins June 6 - Superman by Marcel Walker June 13 - Banshee by me June 20 - Misty Knight by Justique Woolridge June 27 - Sleepwalker by Ross Campbell July 4 - Captain America by Pete Borrebach July 11 - Danger Mouse by Alyssa Ference and here's the link that will take you to all the PB sketches as they get posted: http://www.audioshocker.com/tag/project-basement

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 12:53pm PDT

actually before this is done i got one more to give as soon as i do it this is a fun project

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 12:26pm PDT

Marcel and Alyssa - Send as many as you want! Shawn's already given me two, and I plan on doing at least two. Alyssa - If you're having scanner probs, you're always welcome to mail it to me and I'll send it back. (But lemme know before you do cause I can't remember if you have my new addy or not...)

562873431@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 12:23pm PDT

I've got one for you, but my scanner's being a bitch. Working on it! And I hope you were serious on the "take 10 minutes to do it" clause. Because it took 10 minutes! :D i'm with marcel though, i'll probably do more. it was fun!

609323093@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 12:15pm PDT

If I send more than one, is that cool? I'm a glutton for attention!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, May 27, 2010 at 11:45am PDT

hey i'm gonna launch this feature on my blog this upcoming Sunday and (hopefully) make it weekly from there on out. i haven't received any new sketches since my last major update, so send me over sumthin if you got it!!! nickmarino@gmail.com

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 12:09pm PDT

Well... for my own sake I want the costumes to look relatively accurate. I'm even OCD about my bad art. :)

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 10:43am PDT

No worries! No one ever said the costumes had to be right. It's all about your interpretation, whether its exactly like the comics or something else entirely.

619871688@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 9:39am PDT

I need to bring my sketch book on the bus. It's funny how well I know these characters yet I can't remember how their costumes exactly look when I try to doodle them.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, May 19, 2010 at 9:33am PDT

alright so my start date for posting the P:B sketches on my blog is Monday, May 31. so far, i have sketches from Marcel Walker, Shawn Atkins, and, uhhh, myself. whenever you email me your work, make sure to also let me know if there's any text you'd like to accompany the pic in the blog and also send me links so i can send people to your work!!!

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, May 11, 2010 at 7:53am PDT

if you do black and white lineart, then give it to me at even higher res (let's say 600 dpi, just because lineart can be grainy on the edges). but honestly, it can be b&w, grayscale, or even color. whatever you want.

562873431@facebook.comTuesday, May 11, 2010 at 6:14am PDT

Freakazoid! Excellent idea, Amiee! Man, I miss that show. I'm thinking old school British cartoon, like Count Dukula, Banana Man or Danger Mouse...

719950096@facebook.comTuesday, May 11, 2010 at 6:10am PDT

Should it be grayscale or black and white lineart? I think I'm doing freakazoid! because I I loved that show... And there's probably already going to be a healthy dose of Batman. Maybe I'll try some game characters as well. I'm kinda stuck in SNES though... Weird, that's, like, "retro gaming" now.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 8:16pm PDT

oh, and if you do scan stuff in, pls scan in at 300 dpi at the very least! i have an addiction to hi-res comic art, so i want your stuff hi-res (it is gonna get printed eventually)! also, for those who don't already know, you can email art to me at nickmarino@gmail.com - photoshop files are fine, as are PNGs or JPGs or TIFFs.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 8:13pm PDT

hey all - you're my "i'm in" group of people who said they're down with Project: Basement, my lo-fi/low pressure/high fun superhero sketch project. the timeframe is like this: as soon as i get a few sketches stockpiled, i'll start running this as a weekly feature on http://www.audioshocker.com (probably on Mondays). with that said, i'd love to get started in a few weeks and i'd like to have this wrapped by the end of the summer. so basically, get me something ASAP! ... but there's no pressure cause this is all for fun. do it when you can do it (and don't spend long on it!). the only rules i'm laying down for the drawings are: the character(s) should be your fav comic book/movie/tv/video game superheroes or supervillains. unlike project: rooftop, this sketch doesn't have to be a redesign (but it can if you want it to be!). nothing hateful/ignorant/mean spirited. also, don't make your fellow basementers look bad by spending ten hours on your pic! it's all about the raw energy of a doodle or sketch. feel free to submit as many as you want. if you don't have a scanner or don't want to scan it in, feel free to mail/hand off whatever to me and i'll scan it. lastly, once this is all done, i'm gonna compile the sketches into a zine and i'll mail/give everyone something like 15 copies a piece. preemptive thx for your sketches and HAVE FUN!

sup man, you doing anything for the PGH Small Press Fest this year? i was just watching this video of the 2009 show and lo-and-behold i saw your book in the vid, so i thought i'd see if you're setting up this year.

hey Jon are you gonna be around for Carnival? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

Colette Abigail NewbySaturday, July 20, 2013 at 12:01pm PDT

oh, rad! good luck out there!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 20, 2013 at 12:00pm PDT

Long Beach, CA. Just south of Los Angeles.

Colette Abigail NewbySaturday, July 20, 2013 at 11:59am PDT

:D I can certainly try! Man, I had no idea you'd moved, I'm so out of the loop. Where are you now?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 20, 2013 at 11:59am PDT

i wish i could make it to your comedy show!!! i'm not in pittsburgh anymore but i would unquestionably go just to see you if i was still in town. you're gonna kill it, i'm sure. can you have a friend film it so us non pgh peeps can still see your performance?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 5, 2012 at 4:14am PDT

I've started leaving an issue of Time Log secretly stashed in the middle of the statue everytime I walk by so maybe your friends will find it there!! I think you should print up all of your zines and sell them at the zine fair!!! i mean, you probably wont make much money but who cares? peeps will buy your stuff and i'm sure they'll love it as much as i did.

Colette Abigail NewbyMonday, June 4, 2012 at 7:56pm PDT

:o thanks so much, sir! I try. It's super flattering to hear good things back. Still working on getting enough material together to actually, like, profit from, but selling sunglasses is plenty lucrative until i magically become prolific. Thank you so much for reading! I'll be beaming all night. I still tell all my friends about Time Log every time I walk past that statue.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 4, 2012 at 5:02pm PDT

OH MY GOD... I just read the Abitha Denton zine v2 #2 that you gave me on Free Comic Book Day. IT WAS FUCKING HILARIOUS!!! That cup of loose butter joke made me snort. So good.

Colette NewbyTuesday, September 27, 2011 at 2:46pm PDT

she doesnt have your number call her at 412 320 5834

Colette NewbyTuesday, September 27, 2011 at 2:44pm PDT

whats yr number ill pass it on

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 27, 2011 at 2:42pm PDT

hahaha yeah everything's fine... why didn't he call me?

Colette NewbyTuesday, September 27, 2011 at 2:42pm PDT

hey this is newby's girlfriend, she's been where she said she'd be since 5:15 or something and is wondering where you are and if everyhting is alright.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 1:17pm PDT

5700 Centre Ave, the corner of Centre and Negley. On the same side of Centre Ave as the Giant Eagle, but on the other side of Negley. Buses that drop off on my corner are: 64, 71A, 71C, 82, and the 86. The P3 drops you off on the busway right behind my building, and the 75 drops you off one block away on Ellsworth.

Colette NewbyMonday, September 26, 2011 at 11:04am PDT

That's absolutely ideal, and you will forever have me in your debt. I might bring my tripod at this rate. So where shall I be at 5:15 tomorrow?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 9:00am PDT

Gotcha. Hmmmm lemme think... where's a good place to get decent audio quality at 5:15... well, we can film here as long as you promise to only get the comics mess on the camera. As for visual aids, you mean in your presentation or on the video? Cause I've got lots of comics that could be visual aids on video!!! Also... if the timing works out, I might have my new copies here today or tomorrow, and I could actually fold and staple some books while we talk.

Colette NewbyMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:55am PDT

I can be there by about 5:15. It doesn't have to be a video interview, but I don't have a tape recorder - I was just going to rip the audio off of the clip unless we can find any visual aids. Indoors is probably best, just so weather isn't an issue.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 8:50am PDT

So this is a video interview? Well, we can meet in my apartment / studio (hahaha) which is a complete wreck but charming in a complete wreck sort of way, I guess. Or somewhere outside. Whatever works for you. But the later we record, the closer I need to be to home. How much after 5 are you thinking?

Colette NewbyMonday, September 26, 2011 at 7:49am PDT

Oh, absolutely. My camera can barely stay on for half an hour. Is there anywhere you'd rather meet, do you stay there to record your podcast?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 26, 2011 at 7:44am PDT

I'll be recording a podcast at 7 PM, so we'd have to be done before then.

Colette NewbyMonday, September 26, 2011 at 7:29am PDT

I have to be up in Garfield Tuesday afternoon - is there any chance of meeting with you after 5 or so?

Nick MarinoFriday, September 23, 2011 at 5:18am PDT

yes most definitely. will be in touch soon!

Colette NewbyThursday, September 22, 2011 at 9:35pm PDT

I'm living on the CMU campusthis year, but the Market District is hardly a hike. Will you be in touch once the band gets back to you?

Nick MarinoThursday, September 22, 2011 at 7:59pm PDT

For sure. Glad to help out. This weekend is no good for me (Shawn is getting married), but next week would work out fine. I'm trying out for a band next week, and they haven't picked their practice night yet, so I'm not totally sure which nights I'm free, but I will definitely be available. Also, I work from home, so if you have certain days with blocks of free time, I might be able to meet up. Where do you live? I'm in Shadyside next to the Market District.

Colette NewbyThursday, September 22, 2011 at 7:13pm PDT

Dear Mr. Marino, For school credit and my own curiosity I'm working on an online tutorial on publishing and distributing independent comics and zines. As someone with a background in both the print and online sides of things, would you be at all willing to meet up for an interview on your experiences? I can be pretty much anywhere anytime over the weekend, or after 5 every weekday. The interview should only take about twenty minutes to half an hour. Thank you for reading my request, C. Newby

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 3, 2010 at 9:49am PDT

Dear Mr. Marino, How on earth can I get in touch with you to make money transactions for the Small Press Fair event? Surely there is an option for someone who only deals in paper money out of an intense loathing for the environment. Love, the United States of America

damn, i dunno! such an intense question. i feel like it was just a coincidence... but who knows. maybe not.

Connie Y. ChanWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11:28am PST

aaaandd my life is complete. the fact that he just pulled a mic out of his trunks and is singing with a snorkeling mask on... was america aware of japan's... disturbing love affair with tentacles at this point? i feel like i just watched a live action episode

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 8, 2012 at 10:55am PST

hahahaha OMG a live performance of Sushi Girl http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_QGolK1oJQ so bad/good. make sure you at least get to 2:45 when the "sushi girl" is spanking the singer with her tentacles.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:34am PDT

that's good to hear. and yes, i appreciated your putty. i saw some just like yours at michael's the other day. it couldn't compare, though.... it was like the dollar store version of yours.

Connie ChanSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:29am PDT

its going great! its definitely like 85% development and 15% design but the people are cool. i mean not as cool as you, of course, cause they havent appreciated my silly putty

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:28am PDT

yeah, i'm definitely interested!!! thx for remembering :) how's the Globe?

Connie ChanSaturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:06am PDT

hey nick, I know this is super late. are you still looking for cheap USB drives? if so, think I can get you some information in the near future

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 28, 2010 at 6:47pm PST

both, if that makes any sense. there are definitely plenty of suppliers i could contact, but it's all done through these really ambiguous websites that list hundreds of companies and it's hard enough just trying to pick one to contact first. another problem is that there are no company reviews or anything like that because these contact sites are basically just web forms, not necessarily consumer sites. i don't even know which companies have good domestic reputations, let alone who will give me a good deal (but not a busted product!). i know that's a pretty complicated request, but i'm totally out of options in terms of searching through Google.

Connie ChanTuesday, December 28, 2010 at 6:43pm PST

Hmm I'll have to get back to you about that. so you're just looking for someone who knows USB drives/manufacturers in China? or like, someone who has some good websites/cheapo places to get them? Kinda confused!

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 28, 2010 at 6:08pm PST

hey i have a kind of odd question for you and i'm coming to you about it because i don't even know anyone else to ask! if i remember right, i thought you said your mom was a real estate agent and pretty plugged into the Chinese community in Pittsburgh because of that. i'm trying to buy some stuff from China (specifically, wholesale USB flash drives), but the way the businesses are set up online, it's really confusing and difficult to make a solid business connection, let alone figure out which companies make better products / who's got the best price, etc. i was wondering if your mom knows someone in town who's in the electronics/computer storage business that might be able to point me in the right direction. i totally understand if your answer is "uhhhh i have no idea" but i figure it's worth a shot to ask. thx!!!!!!!!

1479570001@facebook.comThursday, December 2, 2010 at 9:43pm PST

hmm i'm not sure :/ i guess i didnt have that issue since its on my computer. just skip ahead to cs5 :P

4801997@facebook.comThursday, December 2, 2010 at 7:06pm PST

i'm talking about the cs4 one... everyone who tried it is talking about registration issues with Win 7

1479570001@facebook.comThursday, December 2, 2010 at 2:18pm PST

umm it was either cs4 or cs5... i'm thinking cs5. mine actually couple days ago just yelled at me that my license has expired and that I need to get a new one, so I'm thinking of uninstalling and starting from the beginning. if it was cs4 though, my cs4 is still working perfectly fine (I have both CS4 and CS5 on this computer). I'm running Win7

4801997@facebook.comThursday, December 2, 2010 at 12:31pm PST

hey remember that pshop version you got back the last summer you interned? you still using that one? i have it on my comp with XP, but from what i understand, it doesn't install well on windows 7... or at least, not lately. just wondering if you ran into that issue and had any tips or fixes or even know what the hell i'm talking about.

1479570001@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 1:20pm PDT

hey nick i definitely wont be home until after july 1st and there's a chance i'll be in hong kong for at least a bit between july-aug :x if you're looking for a full time, all summer intern i cant :( but i'd love to come in if you need me when i'm home! thanks for checking with me!

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 13, 2010 at 8:12am PDT

hey, Lisa is putting the pressure on us to figure out what we're doing about a summer design intern. if we even need an intern, you have first dibs on the spot if you want it. what are your plans? are you interested or not? thx!!!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 22, 2008 at 6:37pm PDT

you might have to throw me on the limited friends list... we're ordering lulus at wqork tmorrow and you're missing it!!! i know i'm totally typing like i'm drunk but i'm not i'm just too lazy and busy right now to go back and fix anything. anyway i will pay you for it for sure or at least hook you up with something you want because that's only fair!!!! as for when, we don't have a set time that we need the logo by. of course we want to roll it out as soon as we can, but there's no strict demand for it right now. other than what i said before all i ask it that it's 300 dpi minimum and big as hell so that way we can make a sweet potatofest banner out of it (well, all that is for real except for the potastofest thing...)

1479570001@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 12:26pm PDT

Nick, do I have to throw you on my Limited friends list :P I'll be glad to do it! You don't really have to pay me but if you do its fine with me :P is there any specific time you want it by?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 19, 2008 at 11:26am PDT

Connie!!!! i need help!!! my blog / podcast - http://AudioShocker.com - is in desperate need of a sweet vector logo that can be used all over our site but could also be high quality enough to get printed on t-shirts and other merchandise. our current logo - http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd272/nastymusings/shock_new_300.jpg - is fine and all, but we whipped it up real quick when we launched a year ago, and it's super lo-res. plus, it contains non-original elements. so i'm wondering if you would be interested in trying your hand at a vector art logo for us. we like the current logo, but we're not married to it either. you're super creative so i'd love to see what you dream up. as for WHY you should make the logo, i'll give you a few choices (choose one): i could pay you like it's a freelance assignment. i could hook you up with something you want that i can get easy (comics, .avi movie files, or all three seasons of avatar come to mind), or you can name your "price" as in what you want (eternal website credit, your own weekly column on the blog, an ice cream cone, etc). i know you're a busy lady so i understand if you say no. but then again if you say no, i always have this secretly obtained blackmail image of you... http://nickmarino.net/pics/connie1.jpg

10020836@facebook.comTuesday, January 3, 2006 at 7:10am PST

Well, last I heard Maggie is doing theatre in Chicago. She was going to UIC downtown and then dropped out and moved to europe for awhile with her boyfriend but is now back in states. I don't keep in contact with her but my mom and her mom are still good friends. Who else would you like to hear about. Hopefully I can help. Happy New Year!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, January 2, 2006 at 12:46pm PST

10020836@facebook.comThursday, September 29, 2005 at 3:16pm PDT

Hey Nick! Duh, how could I forget you?? It's so funny that you found me on facebook bc I just moved about 2 weeks ago and found my old yearbook and you drew me one of your famous pictures and I was thinking...I wonder what happened to him? Well, I am almost done with school. It's taking me forever bc I had no idea as to what I really wanted to focus on. I start my student teaching in the spring for physical education. Yup thats right, a P.E teacher baby!! haahah!! No absolutely love it and I am have such a ball with all the kids so far. Anywho, what have you been up to, where in the world do you live, single/married/kids? Let me know bc I would love to hear back from you! I bet you are still a crazy kid!!

Hi Nick, I'm at 585-747-9435. I overslept a bit. I'm going to throw myself in the shower, give me a call if you still want me to stop by. The week was hectic so I couldn't get the figure finished.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, August 26, 2010 at 5:43pm PDT

yeah or maybe depending on how early i make it in we meet or up WHATEVER I'LL CALL YOU!

562873431@facebook.comWednesday, August 25, 2010 at 1:26pm PDT

Cool cool! Does that just mean we should plan on stopping by between 10 and 11?

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, August 25, 2010 at 1:20pm PDT

okay, another update! i'll be going straight to Ross' parents place, which is: 21 Ambleside Dr Fairport, NY 14450 so Alyssa i know that's closer for you and hopefully Aimee that's closer for you too!

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, August 25, 2010 at 7:32am PDT

so here's my Friday schedule -- get to Ross' place around 10AM, leave for Toronto around 11AM. kinda short window! anyway, i know that's probably not a great time frame but how about we all exchange digits and (if it's not too early) i can give you a ring around 9ish on Fri morning and see what's up. i'm 484-798-7753

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 23, 2010 at 1:35pm PDT

@Aimee - That could be really cool if it worked out! Ross could even take the figure to FanExpo to show it off :D But no pressure, I know how it is. I'll check in with you in a day or two to see how all that's going. As for the pic, I like the Scott or Jean idea. What about a Scott/Jean hybrid, like it's Jean/Phoenix but she's also got Scott's optic blasts and the visor on??? okay, okay, too much, probably... @Alyssa - I'll let you know what's up with Friday when I get times from Ross. I'm still working on locking down my own schedule!

719950096@facebook.comMonday, August 23, 2010 at 1:15pm PDT

Ah, crap... This has all snuck up on me and I didn't finish Ross's figure to take! Maybe I can finish it and give it to him Friday (and pick up my PB)before you guys go. Augh, I suck! I'm off work on friday so I could meet you briefly if you're game. Otherwise you can leave them with Ross, it'snot a huge rush to get them. :). Thanks for including us! (I owe you a normal drawing too to ink... Been busy this month though!) I'm leaning toward Jean grey or cyclops. Ugh.

562873431@facebook.comMonday, August 23, 2010 at 12:44pm PDT

yooooooo guys, first off, thanks nick! that's so awesome of you to firstly include us in this project and then give us arty souvenirs! can't wait to figure out who i hate so i can send another. i'm leaving sunday around 10am. i will definitely be around friday though, and have no agenda, so i can meet you wherever you're going to be at whatever time you like! are you taking off to toronto right when you get to town?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, August 23, 2010 at 12:11pm PDT

hey Alyssa and Aimee - I've got nine PB print editions for each of you. i'm going to be in Rochester (VERY BRIEFLY!) this Friday and then again on Sunday (i'm driving up, then going w/ Ross to Toronto). so how do we work this out? Alyssa, i know you're gonna be gone after this weekend -- does that mean you'll be leaving on Mon or leaving on Sun? Aimee, Ross said you two don't see each other much, so it doesn't make sense to leave them w/ him necessarily... any suggestions?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 6:30pm PDT

well, send me the one from your phone if you still got it! facebook downgrades pics when you upload them, so maybe your phone one is a bit better. i'll run it!!!

100000944195784@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 9:56am PDT

Unfortunately, Nick, this is the best pic I have of it. Took it with my phone in progress, and this "version" was lost in my overenthusiastic use of watercolor pencils! Next time I'll remember to scan at the office or take a higher quality pic (or just get Scott to help. Will send you a better pic of the Knave, and you can give me some tips for capturing it digitally. Cool?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 9:34am PDT

it's perfect for Project Basement!!! i prefer the photo of this version too, it's fully formed but still maintains some of the raw charm of the working process. if you wanna email a copy of it to me at nickmarino@gmail.com in the largest file size/highest DPI you have, i'll definitely run it on Project Basement. and i'd love to see the Black Knave too. send some pics over!

100000944195784@facebook.comMonday, October 11, 2010 at 6:18am PDT

Nick, Not being so bold as to suggest that this is Project Basement worthy, but I'd sincerely like your opinion. I'd also liek to show you, Scott and some of the other guys an original character (I think?) I drew recently - working title: Black Knave. This image was taken earlier in the coloring process. Check out my photos for the final (overworked) version. Not horrible, but I definately like this less muddy version. Sean

Angela CapelMonday, May 18, 2015 at 2:06pm PDT

Holy crap! This movie I must be a rare and priceless gem. Is this really going to be worth the 17 dollars you'll have to shell out?? I mean... Obviously we're not getting the vhs!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 18, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Hopefully they're at least reading my application to SEE my references. Sigh. Idk. It's a crapshoot I guess haha. I'm thinking I should go back to school for computer science seeing as it runs the world these days. Ay ay ay.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 22, 2013 at 9:31pm PDT

YES!!! Pitching advice. Great idea :) Thx! I guess it's kind of a crappy time of year to find work at the universities, huh? I have a few friends who work at Pitt and CMU. Anything I could do to help out? I've got a friend who works at ModCloth but she's out here in LA, not PGH :(

Kate RileyWednesday, March 20, 2013 at 4:21pm PDT

Well if you have more pitch meetings or something, I'd ask if he has advice on pitching. I mean he's not going to teach you how to write but he can give you business knowledge perhaps. As for me, at this point I'm looking for anything. I was hoping to get a job at a college or ModCloth but so far I haven't heard anything. I have a feeling my résumé is in the Internet ether. I'm going to have to start looking for at least part time work.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 20, 2013 at 12:35pm PDT

I'll shoot you a line when I'm in town to remind you about the event! WHAT DO I SAY TO YOUR FAMILY GUY FRIEND? "Hi, I'm Nick. I make comics. I write funny comics. I wanna write funny cartoons." That sounds so dumb! Hahahaha. I'm sure I'll figure it out... but feel free to toss me any suggestions. Bummer about the tough time you're having finding a job in PGH. What are you looking to do?

Kate RileyWednesday, March 20, 2013 at 11:41am PDT

Hey! sorry i've been lacking on the response. this event looks cool! i'll mark it on my calendar. by the way, here is my friend over at family guy email address: anthony.blasucci@tvbyfox.com hopefully he can give you a little bit of insight. tell him i gave you his email address so he knows who you are, haha. i have not been doing much of anything. unfortunately getting a job here is harder than i thought it would be! starting to worry a little. just have to keep at it i guess!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 1, 2013 at 8:41am PST

Hey Kate! I dunno if you've had a chance to meet up with some cartoonists in town yet, but if you're interested in getting to know some great comic artists and cartoonists in the Burgh, this event will be a pretty good way to meet 'em: http://www.facebook.com/events/148157618681607/ I'll be back in town for that weekend so it would be cool to say hi to you in person :D

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 12, 2013 at 10:55am PST

Yeah, Meltdown!!! I've seen some videos of their events. Great stuff.

Kate RileyFriday, January 11, 2013 at 9:41pm PST

It's a comic book store not a comedy club.

Kate RileyFriday, January 11, 2013 at 9:40pm PST

Oh duh! Also go to Meltdown comics on sunset. They have comedy shows, book signings, classes etc. cool place.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 11, 2013 at 9:10pm PST

What I think is especially cool about Pittsburgh is that the creative comics community isn't very focused on technical ability -- it's all about passion and the desire to create. So even if you did end up drawing your own stuff I think you'd still find that people would be receptive, no matter how rusty your art chops may be nowadays. Even though I'm pitching, it's a fluke opportunity that popped up with Frederator (the Adventure Time and Fairly Odd Parents studio) and not like I have any experience with it otherwise!! So I'm really just getting started. And speaking of art chops, I'm not even close to having the skill to test for Family Guy as an artist! My style is raw and my technical ability is relatively non existent. I'm coming at things from the writing side, so I'll definitely take you up on your offer to get in touch with the Family Guy writer that you know. As for putting you in touch with people in Pittsburgh, if you want to give me your email address then I'll send out some introductions. You should try to attend the next Artists Meetup: http://www.facebook.com/events/199142523558264/ It's in Garfield and run by my friend Jessica. It's for all kinds of artists, but the vast majority of people who show up are cartoonists and zine makers. There's also a monthly cartoonists luncheon in Regent Square on the first Tuesday of the month. It's hosted by the National Cartoonists Society. I think a lot of the artists there (and probably at any PGH comics event, for that matter) would be interested in hearing about your experiences working on The Simpsons and Family Guy. And thx for those tips on places to check out!! That's the kinda stuff I've been wanting to know.

Kate RileyFriday, January 11, 2013 at 4:08pm PST

Hello, I didn't see the need for Alma to be getting our messages, ha. I don't read many comics, but that's not to say I wouldn't want to create one if that would be easier than a cartoon. I find myself wishing I had gone to art school so I could just do some things on my own, but not sure I have the talent for it. If you're already pitching things, sounds like you are doing quite well. I can't offer you much insight as to how it works. I know most (all?) cartoonists are in the union at Family Guy. And to get hired on the show is pretty basic, you take their test, which I think is just drawing the characters on model. Same thing with The Simpsons. The tricky thing is just finding out when they are hiring. Artists tend to never leave those jobs as i'm sure you can understand. if you ever wanted to take the test, let me know and I can ask a few people if they can get you in there for the test. I did not write for either show, I just assisted on The Simpsons and actually worked in Accounting on Family Guy. Pretty lame. but the cool thing with Family Guy is it's all under one roof. the recording, the animators, the writers, producers, you're all together. So you get to see a lot. it's been many years since I was at either place but they can be fun for a while, probably much more so for an artist. For me, I got very bored, very fast. Anyways, I just had a couple little cartoon ideas and thought I'd see if I could find a partner to help me flesh them out. could be just for fun, could be to show someone. I just like making stuff and it's been a long time since I have :) So if you know any cool people here with similar interests, let me know. I know about two people in this city that aren't relatives. haha. I could put you in touch with a Family Guy writer who is a young guy, but I can't say he'll be very helpful unfortunately. he's kind of a mess, but at least he can tell you about Fox animation and stuff. he's pitched stuff before and made some shorts with an American Dad animator. other than that, i'm not much help. Check out Gallery1988 if you haven't already. lots of cool artists/comedians and the like hang out there, especially on opening nights of pop culture type exhibitions. see a UCB show if you're into comedy fo sho. if you have more money to spend, check out a Largo show. check out the old timey radio hour one. it's one of the best shows there and the guy that voices Bender and Jake is usually in the show. you can also catch him doing Karaoke sometimes at R-Bar in koreatown. he sings like Barry White, it's awesome. if i think of anything else, i'll let you know. i am unemployed right now so any way i can meet people or get involved with ANYTHING right now would be awesome as i have FREE TIME for once in my life! woohoo! just don't know where to begin!

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!! What day do you think I should post it?

Kenny RiotTuesday, August 30, 2011 at 3:52am PDT

A'ight, so Audio editing for HCC Bonus Stage 1 is done. All I need to do is that iTunes compression bullscheezie, and put all the links into the show notes, and we're good to go!

Marcel Lamont WalkerSaturday, November 10, 2012 at 6:33pm PST

Hey gang, I'll be in touch with Wayne as soon as I'm ready to head over there. I'm Downtown at a show now.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, November 10, 2012 at 3:49pm PST

Yeah, if you can give me a ride that'd be awesome.

Jeff MoreciSaturday, November 10, 2012 at 3:40pm PST

So Link I'm thinking I'll be able to take you to the bar. Let me know if you need a ride.

Jeff MoreciSaturday, November 10, 2012 at 11:10am PST

I plan on going after my CMU thing. I'm hoping around 10. My cell is 412-439-0891 text me if anything changings.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, November 10, 2012 at 10:59am PST

Confirming this is still happening at Double Wide @ South Side

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, November 8, 2012 at 7:08am PST

I *may* be joining you in progress as well. I'll let you know, but I plan to stop by!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:04pm PST

That would be definitely appreciated Jeff, especially that late. Cait would also be in attendance I'm sure.

Jared CatherineTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:54pm PST

Cool

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:50pm PST

Yeah!!!

Jeff MoreciTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:50pm PST

Oh that's great! I may be able to met you after/around 10:00. That would be fun! If Link needs a ride?

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:46pm PST

Talking with Shawn & Nick, I think we're going to go to the Double Wide Grill on the South Side around 9:00pm.

Jared CatherineTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:43am PST

I'm game! Just let me know when and where!

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:41am PST

I'm totally fine with any of those neighborhoods.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:34am PST

I'm in. Also, I second what Link said about those neighborhoods!!

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:33am PST

Sweet! And it goes without saying that the ladies are welcome as well.

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:26am PST

yeah that works for me.

Jeff MoreciTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:13am PST

Aw. That would have been fun but I volunteered to work a concert at CMU. If yinz are going to be out late (after 10:00) let me know and maybe I can meet up with yinz.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 8:01am PST

That could be significantly awesome. I'm usually tied around Squirrel Hill, Oakland, Downtown, Southside, and those kinds of areas due to easy bus access.

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 7:30am PST

I'm around too. Sounds good!!

Wayne WiseTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 7:21am PST

I should be around. Let me know where and when.

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:57am PST

We're always talking about getting together for a night out, so I was thinking about heading out Saturday night for some drinks. Anybody interested?

Shawn Atkins, Dan Greenwald, Jared Catherine, Nick Marino, Marcel Lamont Walker, Wayne Wise, Seth Fronzoli
Marcel Lamont WalkerMonday, April 15, 2013 at 5:49pm PDT

I am going to give a tentative "yes" here. I'm going to DRAWING POWER, but I'm not sure exactly when, since I'm also going to try and go to the CMU Carnival with Kristin. However, since I'm greedy and want everything, I'll do my best to get together with the cool kids for dinner too!

Shawn AtkinsMonday, April 15, 2013 at 5:40pm PDT

Count me in mr.Dan

Seth FronzoliMonday, April 15, 2013 at 4:51pm PDT

I plan on stopping by, I work for a few hours that day, but I should be there! Sounds good Dan!

Jared CatherineMonday, April 15, 2013 at 6:27am PDT

Wish I could but Im taking my little brother down to the ball game Saturday night.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, April 15, 2013 at 6:23am PDT

Hey, I wanted to see if any of you cats wanted to grab some dinner after the Drawing Power event on Saturday. Obviously anyone is invited, you guys are just the first ones I thought of. :)

John Almeida, Nick Marino
John AlmeidaWednesday, August 17, 2011 at 10:22am PDT

Oh ok & yes that's me. I just platinumed svr 11 & Cod BO & now I'm going for bleach :)

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 17, 2011 at 10:06am PDT

yeah, Soulreaser, right? i haven't played much MvC in the past moth or so (probably only twice), so i haven't added you yet.

John AlmeidaWednesday, August 17, 2011 at 9:42am PDT

You still have my Psn ID?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 17, 2011 at 9:31am PDT

SWEET!!!!

John AlmeidaWednesday, August 17, 2011 at 9:07am PDT

I'll be going to capcom's new York fight club tomorrow. Stay tuned for pics

Nick MarinoThursday, July 21, 2011 at 5:34am PDT

okay, sounds good. yeah i woulda liked some characters like that. i was really hoping for black panther or ms. marvel! on the capcom side, i'm really bummed they don't have captain commando or jin. even sakura or juri or another female SF fighter woulda been better to me.

John AlmeidaWednesday, July 20, 2011 at 8:17pm PDT

Nick when your on psn add me & if I'm full just send a message & I'll delete someone.

John AlmeidaWednesday, July 20, 2011 at 7:51pm PDT

Well I'm excited for ghost rider, hawkeye, nemesis & dr.strange but I would have liked Emma frost, elektra, punisher & moonknight.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 20, 2011 at 7:36pm PDT

hahaha yeah i did. i'm so torn about it! i think rocket raccoon is great, but the rest of it i'm really meh on. seems like some kinda uninspired character choices.

John AlmeidaWednesday, July 20, 2011 at 7:20pm PDT

I'm Soulreaser. Let's match up soon. Btw did you hear about UMvC3? It's gonna be EPIC! Lol

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 20, 2011 at 7:18pm PDT

yeah! not as often as i used to, but i'm on there. username: nikfurious yours?

John AlmeidaTuesday, July 19, 2011 at 8:30am PDT

Thx for the add. Btw do you play mvc3 on ps3?

Julie Sokolow, Nick Marino
Julie SokolowSunday, April 21, 2013 at 4:58pm PDT

I didn't think it seemed pandering at all. It worked great! And thanks for the comments, I was worried the piece might read as obscure, pretentious and/or bonkers, but I guess we've all got our insecurities hehe

Nick MarinoSunday, April 21, 2013 at 4:21pm PDT

thx!! i was experimenting with a new style and it turned out a lot better than i thought it would. i'm kinda bummed cause my story was made way before the anthology was a thing, but i think it reads like i was pandering to the concept of the collection :( i love how you weren't afraid to fuck with negative space. and your juxtapositions are so good!! i was totally immersed in the emotion of your story.

Julie SokolowSunday, April 21, 2013 at 4:12pm PDT

Thanks so much, Nick! Just checked out your comic. Love love love the colors! : )

Nick MarinoSunday, April 21, 2013 at 3:52pm PDT

your story is the Memory anthology is fucking fantastic!!!!

Virginia ShieldsThursday, October 25, 2012 at 4:11pm PDT

Shawn AtkinsThursday, October 25, 2012 at 2:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 3:56pm PDT

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 1:44pm PDT

I'm cool with either location and we could meet at a different time if that makes things easier for Nick! I'll be free all day.

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 1:04pm PDT

how about crazy mocha or we can meet up at the starbuck near your house.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 12:55pm PDT

not sure. my friend is in town this weekend but he's being high maintenance and i'm not sure what his deal is!! i might not be able to hang the whole time but i could come kick it for a little depending on where you're meeting up.

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 12:51pm PDT

that works great with me.

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 12:42pm PDT

Crap! So here's my update: my boss needs me to come in tomorrow, but I will now be off on Friday like the good ole days. Does that work better for yinz?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 10:16am PDT

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 8:19am PDT

Alright so I gave some thought. I have to drop off steph in Elisabeth at 930 and pick her up at two. did you guys wanna meet in between that like around 10-1030.

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, October 23, 2012 at 6:13am PDT

Shawn AtkinsMonday, October 22, 2012 at 9:20am PDT

David DeVeraWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:33pm PST

Thanks, Shawn. I know this is a complete crap shoot. But It can't hurt. There is an update, by the way. I was able to buy some time. So things aren't as bleak as they were yesterday. I want to thank all those that posted yesterday and frakkin bought a book. Thank you so much!

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:17pm PST

I'll pass the word Dave.

David DeVeraWednesday, February 13, 2013 at 3:36pm PST

More movement, guys! Thanks again!

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 7:44pm PST

Max, that would be amazing, man if you can do that on the AC FB. I'm sure that would help TONS! ANY and all help is greatly appreciated!

Max O. MillerTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 7:35pm PST

Firstly, I'll help in any way that I can as much as I can. Hell! I'd be happy to. I've been in some hard places in my life. Kate can vouche for me on that. So don't for a second feel embarrassed or ashamed that you reached out for help. Everyone has to from time to time. I'm a pretty busy dude these days, my social life is almost nonexistent...but few months back I would run the Aggressive Comix facebook very regularly. I still do from time to time, but don't have nearly as much time so I have to usually schedule posts sometimes weeks in advance because of my "real" job. I'm not in the emperors chair, I have to ask the creator, but I'm second in command so I'll see if I can post some Ninjabitch on the FB for you. I'd also like to purchase some copies from you. I might not know much...but I do know one thing. Us freelance, amateur, independent artists need to stick together. - Your friend, Max

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 5:43pm PST

Thanks a lot guys, I'm starting to see some movement. I really appreciate the effort. I slipped and dropped the ball late last year and have been trying to play catch up every since.

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:30pm PST

Jason, thanks!

Jason SpenceTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:28pm PST

I'm passing it on and I finally ordered the special edition book! I'm sure you'll get the money you need.

Myke AllenTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:28pm PST

np buddy!

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:27pm PST

Thank you Myke!

Myke AllenTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:26pm PST

shared from my account to several groups and my personal friends! hope it helps!

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:26pm PST

Thank you Jim!

Jim SemonikTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:24pm PST

Ill pimp it tonight bro.

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:22pm PST

Dude. Thank you.

Zac GilleyTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:15pm PST

No worries man. I'm just glad to be in the position I am to help. I ordered a second copy to give as a gift to a friend of mine who is also a big indie comic supporter.

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:13pm PST

Oh man, Zac. You are the man. Thank you so much! I feel like an ass to be doing this.

Zac GilleyTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:12pm PST

Just put the call out on my wall, and shared it to Ohio Goth, which has a little over 800 members. Hopefully something good comes of it, man.

Zac GilleyTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:59am PST

I know, but on the flipside, you aren't panhandling as much as you're trying to do it through book sales. That's a hell of a thing sir.

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:58am PST

Thank you, Zac. I feel rather shitty having to do this...I really dont like asking people for help like this.

Zac GilleyTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:55am PST

I'll pimp this out as soon as I can, man.

David DeVeraTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:54am PST

Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that you are either an artist or support the arts. I have come into a bit of money trouble and I need your help. (No, I am not directly asking you for your money) but would ask a favor of you. I need to come up with 2,000 dollars to stay in my current home. As a lot of you know, I had a very bad year last year or so ago and suffered from a crippling depression that almost destroyed me. I am a lot better now, focused on work and life and things are starting to look up. I have an amazing studio space with a lot of equipment that cannot be moved in the time I have alotted to leave. If I can come up with the back rent, then I can stay. I know this isnt your problem...but I am asking for your help. I need to promote the living hell out of my book Ninjabitch and would ask each and everyone of you to help in this endeavor. There is a limited edition cover that is available until Thursday. Please, promote this link, often as you can. I cannot lose this space I have here. It would set me back so bad after all this time. Can you help? Here is the link. Thank you so much in advance. Normally I wouldn't do something like this but I am desperate. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=513932235296066&set=a.200234699999156.43832.200231986666094&type=1&theater

You've just (finally) been PayPal-ed! Thanks for the reminder! :)

Wayne WiseMonday, April 15, 2013 at 6:31am PDT

Dan... remind me when I see you this week. I'll give you some cash.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, April 15, 2013 at 6:25am PDT

Hi guys! This is my last message, promise. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I plan on giving Shawn & Steph the baby gift on Saturday after the Drawing Power event, so if anyone wants to contribute there's still time.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, April 8, 2013 at 1:10pm PDT

Ah, good question! PayPal contributions can go to hepcat47@yahoo.com

Marcel Lamont WalkerMonday, April 8, 2013 at 1:09pm PDT

I'm fine with the Babies 'R' Us gift card suggestion. What email account do you use for PayPal, Dan? That's most likely how I'll send you my contribution.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, April 8, 2013 at 1:06pm PDT

Hi there! If you're reading this, at some point you expressed some interest in chipping in on a gift for our buddy and soon-to-be-new-dad Shawn Atkins. I'm going to start collecting now and hopefully we can get together and give it to him and Steph sometime when Nick returns to Pittsburgh, between April 17th-24th. I thought a gift card to Babies R Us would be the most useful, but I'm open to other gift ideas as well. Any questions, let me know. Thanks Dan

Hey buds. My collaborator asked me if I'd like to pitch to the Nick Animated Shorts Program with him and I thought "Hey, I know two cool cats who did that!" Do you have any advice for us?

Nick Marino, Ashly Nagrant
Nick MarinoMonday, August 6, 2012 at 8:55pm PDT

FOR REAL! I spent half of my fucking day putting that thing together. Ridiculous.

Ashly NagrantMonday, August 6, 2012 at 8:12pm PDT

I know, right? I was waiting for them to request a DNA sample.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 6, 2012 at 8:11pm PDT

Ray A. HeightSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:35pm PDT

I'll talk to Mike tomorrow.

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

Shhhhh! Quiet, you fool! Now everybody will want to be doing it.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:31pm PDT

People make money making comics? I thought that was an urban myrrh

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:30pm PDT

Until Nutmeg pays more than my day job...

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:29pm PDT

Hahaha... le sigh.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:29pm PDT

Where are your priorities? :-)

Blackagar BoltagonnSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:28pm PDT

Won't be able to do the LBCC in September. Fall shows are a tricky proposition for me since it's almost impossible for me to get Sundays off during football season.

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:20pm PDT

8ft tables are 250 each and a 10x10 booth is 550

Dan MendozaSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:19pm PDT

Awesome. I wasn't planning on doing the sept. Show but let me get back to you

DeWayne FeenstraSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:16pm PDT

I sent Scig a message and waiting to hear back. I wonder if a booth might be more cost effective?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:12pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:12pm PDT

DeWayne hit me up on FB earlier tonight about Long Beach Comic Con in Sept. He said he got an email from the show today and he was wondering if we want to go for an Action Lab block of tables. I'm interested, though I'd prefer to split a table if someone is game (James, you?). Also, DeWayne, do we save anything by getting the block?

Nick Marino, Yono Mittlefehldt
Nick MarinoSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 12:08pm PDT

I quit my office job last year and now I'm working on starting a comics career. From what I've seen, there are tons of tutorials online for drawing superheroes. Hopefully you can find the type of stuff you're looking for with ease! Keep me posted on your comic. I'd love to see the art as you progress.

Yono MittlefehldtSaturday, September 3, 2011 at 11:50am PDT

I'm living in Stuttgart, Germany now. I married one of them last December too. I'm in one of my cycles again where I want to draw comics again! (happens every 5-8 years or so) I'm thinking of making it about a superhero who is assigned to work in Stuttgart based on his qualification. My day job is sadly still at IBM. Very dull work, but pays well, I guess. How about you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 2:32pm PDT

Pls do!! What have you been up to?

Yono MittlefehldtWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 2:23pm PDT

It turns out I was thinking of Joe Kubert, not John Romita! Silly me. I'll have to check out your stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 31, 2011 at 12:50pm PDT

YO! That wasn't me with the Romita video. But I'm sure it's out there and relatively easy to find. And yeah I'm still making comics... PLUG TIME!!!

Hey Nick, How's it going? It's been a while. Ok enough small talk, I have a very specific question for you. Did you or did you not have a "DVD" or "VHS" or some sort of "video" of John Romita teaching comic drawing? If so, what was it called? Ok, back to the small talk... you still drawing comics?

Eric ShonbornMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

JB SapienzaMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

I want it nasty.

Eric ShonbornMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:03am PDT

Tastefully nude.

JB SapienzaMonday, March 9, 2015 at 9:02am PDT

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:28pm PST

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

He wasn't even supposed to be here today

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

Troglodante

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:22pm PST

Haha

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:13pm PST

Troglodyke... The hero's a butchy lesbian cavewoman

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:09pm PST

Cavemonster Love Pump

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:09pm PST

Yeah. It wasn't gay before. Or so I tell myself...

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:09pm PST

All of a sudden?

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:08pm PST

All of a sudden we're doing gay fetish porn

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:08pm PST

Troglodick: Monster Cock Masher

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:08pm PST

So TrogloDickey pounds them until they pop.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

Maybe the parasite infects penises. It makes them huge and monstrous.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

Cavemanage a tois

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

Cavecock: Balls to the Wall

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

Sorry... Couldn't avoid the pun

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

that might be hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

Fetus Fister: Monster Muncher

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:06pm PST

Yeah... I don't think "dick" will be a hard sell.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:05pm PST

Though Nick does the book Holy Fuck so I could be wrong. Haha

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:05pm PST

Dick might be a tough sell in any of them. Z2 just did a book called son of Hellcock

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:05pm PST

Hahahahah

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:05pm PST

Troglomasher: Monster Dick

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:04pm PST

I'm still partial to Monster Masher. Troglodick: Monster Masher.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 2:01pm PST

Haha I thought about that. Troglodick: Private Caveman

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:54pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:54pm PST

Troglodick

Troglodylan

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:50pm PST

Troglodaniel. Troglodale. Troglodave. Troglodarren. Troglodane. Troglodawson

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:48pm PST

*as

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:48pm PST

Troglodale is fun... I kinda dug Troglodyte Terry ad it had a videogame-esque vibe

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

Troglodale: The Monster Masher

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

Well, it's not a blob hahaha. It's a parasite... Which is another reason it's so hard to defeat.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

But I'm game for that

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

It's almost now like Caveman vs the Blob haha

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

Is it really?

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

But I've always felt it'd be a lot of fun to bring to life somehow

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

Cool.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

It's similar to something I pitched in an animated series that didn't get picked up.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

Seems like a great opponent for a hibernating caveman.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

Very cool idea.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

I really like the parasite that turns other stuff into monsters.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

We can keep spitballing titles/ideas too...

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

I'm open to any title at this point.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

But I'm warped.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

Bwahaha! I fucking dig that!

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

Could call it Troglodyte Terry: Monster Masher

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

I suppose that's true...

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

Well graveyard could still play especially with his slumber and the monsters aspect

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

But troglodyte something would be hilarious!

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

Might need to change the graveyard part since we'll be ditching the zombie idea

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

Or just jerk off on victims, trapping them in jizz? Hahaha!

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

Like turning chihuahuas into three headed beasts who rape legs and such...

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

Caveman vs monsters. Could be a prophecy that makes him the protector of the universe type dude haha. How do we feel about that title Troglodyte Graveyard?

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:27pm PST

I dig that idea... And maybe it's some sort of fucked parasite that travels from being to being and can transform said being into grotesque monsters?

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

Heavy on the violence. Heavy on the blood and insanity and horror aspects with this ridiculous idea is what I was thinking.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Yeah zombies have been played out. I'm trying to think of a good adversary for him. Werewolves? Vampires? Frankensteins?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

Maybe there's some kind of bucket list thing you wanna doodle that could be an opponent for a Rip Van Winkle-esque caveman!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN ITCHING TO DRAW?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Alex, my favorite question to ask artistic collaborators is...

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

I'm really feeling this Caveman that sleeps for long periods of time and reawakens to tussle. But I gotta be 900% honest... I'm so zombied out right now!

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:10pm PST

If went with Caveman and time travel or different eras, it'd be like a hardcore Encino Man meets 28 Days Later

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

Could be a Viking instead of Caveman as well. Or a caveman Viking haha

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

The main character has been fighting zombies for centuries and has to sleep periodically and is resurrected every hundred or so years to face a zombie infestation

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Loose idea borne from the title first. Troglodyte Graveyard. An immortal caveman vs zombies story.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:37am PST

Indian food.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:36am PST

Or Dominos pizza

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:36am PST

That's easy... Strong coffee, and lots of fiber.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:35am PST

I could use advice on bowel movements, so I'm in.

CW CookeMonday, December 21, 2015 at 9:32am PST

Yeah we should

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:51am PST

We should talk about making some Comics though...

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:51am PST

I barely had time to make a decent bowel movement.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:51am PST

Oh wait... that would be impossible... I wasn't here so how could we make them...

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:50am PST

I'M BACK ON SOCIAL MEDIA!! DID WE MAKE ANY COMICS WHILE I WAS GONE?!?

CW CookeMonday, December 14, 2015 at 1:33pm PST

Indeed.

Alex SchumacherMonday, December 14, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

I think we're always for realz up for talking about making comics. The more fucked up, the better.

CW CookeMonday, December 14, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Coolio.

CW CookeMonday, December 14, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Shawn AtkinsMonday, January 9, 2012 at 10:39am PST

Virginia ShieldsMonday, January 9, 2012 at 10:07am PST

Shawn AtkinsMonday, January 9, 2012 at 10:06am PST

yeah we're goin. are you?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, January 9, 2012 at 10:03am PST

Hey! Are you guys going to the luncheon tomorrow?

Shawn Atkins, Dan Greenwald, Nick Marino, Marcel Lamont Walker, Wayne Wise, Seth Fronzoli
Seth FronzoliSunday, September 18, 2011 at 1:29pm PDT

I always say we should do stuff like that more often!

Shawn AtkinsSunday, September 18, 2011 at 1:18pm PDT

word up! :)

Marcel Lamont WalkerSunday, September 18, 2011 at 10:07am PDT

I think this means you have to keep getting married, Shawn. ;^) That's okay -- we'll just draw straws and start rotating the Best Man title, so we'll each take a turn. I'm in for our next get together, by the way!

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 18, 2011 at 9:38am PDT

Dude, I had a GREAT time and I have to echo Wayne's suggestion that we get together like that more often.

Shawn AtkinsSunday, September 18, 2011 at 8:56am PDT

I wanna thank everyone for last night it was really awesome and the most fun i had in a long while. Thanks :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 17, 2011 at 1:14pm PDT

hahaha okay it's plan. going to pick up shawn now. then seth. then bars!!! will be texting everyone as i go.

Seth FronzoliFriday, September 16, 2011 at 11:17pm PDT

Cool, Bar Louie...then Dee's is the Plan I take it!

Shawn AtkinsFriday, September 16, 2011 at 1:49pm PDT

i've never been to bar louie but with a name like louie whats not to like so im game for that. then off to the southside

Nick MarinoFriday, September 16, 2011 at 4:31am PDT

I'm down for whatever. My whole night is free. What timing works out well for everyone? I'm getting a Zipcar at 4 PM, and I can cart whoever around... just lemme know!!! Shawn, how do you wanna kick things off?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, September 15, 2011 at 12:20pm PDT

Aside from me & Nick, is anyone else going to PodCamp? The reason I ask is, there's usually a gathering at Bar Louie at Station Square after the first day, so we could start there and then head to Dee's or just go straight to Dee's. We could also grab a bite on the South Side first (which might not be a bad idea) and then head to Dee's.

Seth FronzoliThursday, September 15, 2011 at 12:08pm PDT

What time are we thinking to meet up at Dee's? Just curious!

Marcel Lamont WalkerMonday, September 12, 2011 at 6:36am PDT

Heya -- depending on where and when eveything kicks off, I *may* be joining the party in progress. Turns out Saturday night is a FULL night of stuff, and I do have at least one other thing to attend. That's earlier in the evening though, so I'll still be getting with ya'!

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, September 8, 2011 at 1:05pm PDT

Whoa! Well, I don't wanna be lame...so I guess I'm in three! 8^)

Wayne WiseThursday, September 8, 2011 at 12:08pm PDT

Me too!

Seth FronzoliThursday, September 8, 2011 at 11:37am PDT

Count me in!

Dan GreenwaldThursday, September 8, 2011 at 7:57am PDT

I'll be there. I'm looking forward to an evening out with the boys.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 8, 2011 at 5:36am PDT

Shawn's bachelor party -- Hey all, the night of Saturday Sept 17th is the date... we haven't 100% worked out the location yet, but we're thinking about kicking off the fun at a bar or two (probably South Side... Shawn likes Dee's). Strip club may or may not be a part of the plan later in the night, we're kinda winging it on that tip. But the goal is to get drinks, have fun, and celebrate Shawn's matrimonial freedom while he still has it (eeep!). I'll be driving around a car for the night and I don't drink so that covers at least the three people riding with me.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 14, 2015 at 4:35am PDT

OMG the drama!!!!!!!! i love it.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:15pm PDT

I know!!! That was classic!

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:14pm PDT

I enjoyed the comment from the lady dissing downtown and then someone called her out and she replied "I don't know anything about downtown". Hilarious.

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:14pm PDT

He could've punched harder...or lower or whatever.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

yeah, DJ's not pulling punches either...

Scott HedlundSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Yeah

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 9:07pm PDT

Is this occurring on Facebook?

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:34pm PDT

Man, DJ is really letting Joe have it right now. Good for DJ, he's basically saying everything I was thinking, but I wasn't eloquent enough to put it into words

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:07pm PDT

Bwahahaha

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

And then this...

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

Oh boy, here we go...

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:03pm PDT

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:52am PDT

I'm not 100% sure. Durango the interview he was sent a color proof of an upcoming Iron Man cover he drew and he didn't like it one bit. I don't blame him, there were some odd choices made.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:07am PDT

In the short time I was around him, I assure you, he give zero fucks. lol

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

haha nice! which one was he hollering at?

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

it's almost like "grrr keep the characters the way they were when i was making the most money!!!!"

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

Indeed. I'm unsure if we should leave him yelling at the Marvel editor in or not, haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:05am PDT

it's funny how these creators who're so new school at one time, changing things to match the sensibilities of their eras, can become so adverse to change as they get older.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:03am PDT

it's all good! i thought it was a nice moment. very... touching...

Jared CatherineSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 8:01am PDT

That one threw me for a loop and I tried to come back with something and ended up with nothing.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

Hahaha... I did NOT see that coming.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:57am PDT

omg how could you not get into a discussion about superman's three cocks?!?!? leaving me hanging over here ;)

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 7:49am PDT

SWEEEEEEEEEEET!

Shawn AtkinsSaturday, September 12, 2015 at 5:41am PDT

Awesome interview Jared!

Jared CatherineFriday, September 11, 2015 at 9:09pm PDT

Dan, I didn't know you took a photo. That was great!

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 11, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

Awesome man. I heard most of that conversation in person, sounded really interesting

Scott HedlundFriday, September 11, 2015 at 8:56pm PDT

Nice job Jared!

Jared CatherineFriday, September 11, 2015 at 8:48pm PDT

A proud moment for the Comic Book Pitt

Nick Marino, Joseph Richard Lewis
Joseph Richard LewisTuesday, August 30, 2011 at 1:26pm PDT

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 30, 2011 at 9:46am PDT

I was super honored that you mailed me a copy! Thx for that!!!! And I'm really excited to see your next film. I forgot the time we jammed in Diane's basement!!! She had that awesome Moog, remember? Oh man that thing was so sweet. I wonder if she still has that.... THAT VIDEO IS NUTS! Did you sing both parts and change the pitch?

Joseph Richard LewisTuesday, August 30, 2011 at 9:36am PDT

thnx 4 watchin! 1. It's still Joe. I credit myself as Joseph R Lewis as an homage to an exploitation movie director from the 30s and 40s named Joseph H. Lewis 2. Im glad that you felt the influence of comic books. the tropes not the aesthetic, you were right on. im eager 4U to see my next one. and ur right, comics cant be adapted. itd be like trying to adapt music into a novel. but i always try and create a similar relationship between the audience and the piece as a comic book does. something more intimate and malleable. 3. No acid tabs on the packaging, but I involve all the DVDs in a voodoo ritual to seal spirits inside them thanks man, its really uplifting and encouraging to hear that you watched it and wanted to talk about it. even if you hadnt liked it i still wouldve been grateful, and im even happier that you enjoyed it.XOX ps its also great that ur still making music. ive listened to a couple of ur tracks. nice. remember playing surf punk in diane's basement? neither do i. i started working on music again this year as well.. heres the first vid i scored myselfXOXXOX http://vimeo.com/19548151

Nick MarinoThursday, July 28, 2011 at 12:48pm PDT

Joseph Richard LewisThursday, July 28, 2011 at 12:36am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 30, 2011 at 7:45am PST

i talked to shawn last night and he refused to pick a spot. so we have to pick one!!! i'm not sure if he's driving or busing... i'll ask him now.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, November 28, 2011 at 5:45am PST

yes and no...there's free parking on the side streets but that's only if you can find it! but it seems like you've gotten the short end of the stick location-wise with the last couple of meetings, so why don't we go somewhere that is more convenient for you this time?

Shawn AtkinsSunday, November 27, 2011 at 4:04pm PST

does it have free parking cause i think im gonna drive

Virginia ShieldsSunday, November 27, 2011 at 12:18pm PST

Whatever works best for you two, I can just sleep for it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:51am PDT

Alex GomoryTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:49am PDT

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:45am PDT

11:30 PM EST wouldn't work for me, either, 'cause I'd already be on my way to work! Hahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:44am PDT

Either would be okay for me depending on the time. I can't go too late on Thurs (not after 11:30 PM EST) and I can't start too early on Friday (not before 10:30 AM EST). Also, Alex, I want to add you to the AudioShocker site as a contributor. You've been on how many episodes now? A LOT!

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:41am PDT

and we should be good.

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:41am PDT

So then, all that's left is to see where Nick stands, and then come up with an actual time

Alex GomoryTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

ok

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

Either of those works for me

Alex GomoryTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

thursday night would be the only option or firday morning

Alex GomoryTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:36am PDT

this week may not work

Kenny RiotTuesday, October 2, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

Okay, so I want to record an episode discussing the "Street Fighter Alpha (NOT GENERATIONS)" Movie with you two at some point in the week. When would be a good time?

Ben PaulFriday, September 16, 2011 at 9:18am PDT

Hi Nick - I keep hearing about you through the comic grapevine that to which I have attuned my ears for this National LearnIt event. Could you do me a favor and official-rsvp at http://www.communiteach.com/learnit.php?glid=365 Thanks! Ben

Ben PaulSunday, September 4, 2011 at 4:27pm PDT

Hi Nick! I saw you are Facebook-attending the comics learnit, which is great. Just make sure to reserve your spot at http://www.communiteach.com/learnit.php?glid=365 before it fills! Best, Ben

Dan Greenwald, Nick Marino, Andy Scott, Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonough, Scott Hedlund
Nick MarinoTuesday, September 6, 2011 at 6:53am PDT

hey guys -- i kept meaning to message you about this and i kept forgetting! anyway, dunno if you already knew, but there's this Ziggy tribute show going on at AIP and in particular they're looking for former students to participate. here are the details: http://nickmarino.tumblr.com/post/8710654610/attn-pittsburgh-cartoonists-call-for-entry-for the deadline says the 5th, but the organizer told me that the 12th is okay.

Nick Marino, Alma Castrejón De Roberts, Kate Riley
Nick MarinoThursday, January 10, 2013 at 2:43pm PST

Okay, so to be specific, my background and knowledge of the Burgh's art community is focused on comics. To be honest, I can't think of any animators off of the top of my head. I was pretty involved in the art scene for the past couple of years, and I don't remember encountering any animators living in PGH and actively producing material. But the comics and sequential art scene is pretty fucking impressive!! There are a ton of active cartoonists, from internationally recognized professionals to people making comics as a weekend hobby. I know that's not exactly what you're looking for, but it's close!!! Both Carnegie Mellon and the Art Institute of PGH have classes/programs for animators, so there might be an opportunity for you to connect with a student animator who wants to cut their teeth on a new project. Otherwise, there's the ToonSeum, which is currently putting together a comprehensive list of cartoonists in the southwest PA region. They might be able to put you in touch with some people (though it can be tough to get the ToonSeum to email you back!). Are you interested in the PGH comics community? If so, I can give you more info and pass along some contacts. I'm kinda in a similar situation as you here in Long Beach/LA... trying to get a feel for the cartoonist community and not really knowing where to start. Anything you can pass along would be awesome!! Normally, I'm 100% focused on comics, but in November I got an opportunity to pitch to an animation studio out here, so I'm dipping my toes into that medium too (not as an animator, but as a writer and storyboarderererer) and excited for more opportunities.

Kate RileyThursday, January 10, 2013 at 2:23pm PST

Hi Nick, I wasn't sure if there was a good place to find some cartoonists in Pittsburgh. I would like to collaborate on something. I don't draw much anymore and I certainly don't know the process of animating these days. I might even go back to school for it, who knows. Just wondered if there's a community here for that sort of thing.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 10, 2013 at 12:55pm PST

Thx for the introduction, Alma :D Hi Kate!! I dunno where to start exactly... but I'm sure i can help. What would you like to know?

Alma Castrejón De RobertsThursday, January 10, 2013 at 11:56am PST

Hi, Nick! I am glad to have you now on this side of the country. Like I mentioned on our previous conversation, we should hang out whenever you find yourself in L.A. The reason for this message is bc I wanted to connect a former L.A. neighbor with you, Kate Riley. She recently moved to PGH, to be near her family. While in L.A., she worked for Family Guy and The Simpsons. She likes writing for TV shows and one of her goals is to have her own cartoon. She currently wants to get to know people in the cartoon industry in PGH. She wants to know a cartoonist/animator/art student that she can talk to, in hopes for her to develop her cartoon. I know you were well connected on that area in PGH, so I am wondering if you could give her some insights and maybe connect her with some people. I am also sure that she can provide you with any knowledge she may have about the industry in the L.A. area. (Kate, Nick now lives in Long Beach, but I am sure he'll be interested in knowing any insights on the industry). Nick meet Kate. Kate meet Nick. Go!

@Mark Zingarelli Between the time the first one is an adult and the following one becomes a teenager, I've got about a 7 year sweet spot that I am so looking forward to.

Mark ZingarelliTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 12:18pm PST

Yes...what Nathan said. Cheezus. Ain't it the truth.

Nathan MazurTuesday, December 13, 2011 at 12:17pm PST

Sorry I did not make it to the party. When / if you have children that reach their teenage years, you may understand.

Nathan MazurThursday, December 8, 2011 at 7:18am PST

You'd better be there, Pat. I'm counting on it.

Pat LewisWednesday, December 7, 2011 at 12:24pm PST

I should be there too yay

Nathan MazurTuesday, December 6, 2011 at 7:11am PST

I am also going. It will be grand(e).

Alex and I are going :)

Jamie HuntsmanMonday, December 5, 2011 at 3:49pm PST

Hey folks...who's going to the PSI Holiday party? I usually try to make it and it seems like the one time of year we all get together.

Jamie HuntsmanTuesday, November 1, 2011 at 10:57am PDT

Sorry folks...I was out camping on Friday...it was cold (Thank goodness I had my RV). Hope everyone had a good Halloween. We should get together soon. Jamie

Rhonda LibbeyThursday, October 27, 2011 at 7:59pm PDT

Aww, going to see the zombie opera

Josh SagerThursday, October 27, 2011 at 6:20pm PDT

hahahah I have band practice with the fellas, but I would otherwise go.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 27, 2011 at 5:36pm PDT

hahaha i feel like i've been thrown over the fence, completely to the other side. now i'm definitely not going tomorrow.

Pat LewisThursday, October 27, 2011 at 4:56pm PDT

Hey, if you're on the fence about going to Friday night's PSI social meeting and my presence puts you over the top, you're in luck! I'm planning on being there, probably a little closer to the early part of the evening. Maybe I'll see some of you guys there!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 7:40pm PST

Cait might be just getting in the door at 8, so if you don't mind waiting a few she can probably join us depending on traffice tomorrow. I'll be game though.

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 7:28pm PST

ya know im down too but i wont have much to say about new comics

Scott HedlundWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 6:09pm PST

I'm in.

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 2:26pm PST

3 Things: 1) Dan -- unfortunately, I'm booked tomorrow night as well. Super-sorry (with a cape and everything)! 8^( 2) Nick -- I owe you an email or a call or both! Expect it, I SWEAR!!! 3) Jim -- what are you doing at the ToonSeum? Are you able to tell us...? 8^)

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:21am PST

Okay. Good. So are we locked on tomorrow @ 8 PM? That's fine with me.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:21am PST

Well that goes without saying...

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:20am PST

I'm in. But only if we video podcast naked.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:13am PST

Sounds good!

Jim RuggWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:06am PST

OK. I'm out for this one. We should plan on doing something in late February before my Toonseum show. I should have lots to blab about by then.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:04am PST

Jeff/Link - no problem, you can let me know whenever. Hey Jim, generally we all use Skype and connect that way. If you can join us, that would be great. If not, we'll definitely have to hook up for a recording sometime in 2012.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 9:02am PST

Cait and I could be up for this, depending. We have friends leaving the state and moving to California, so we may be squeezing in some last minute hang out time with them instead. I'll let you know more tonight.

Jim RuggWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 8:39am PST

Dan -- where is this recording going to take place? I'd love to check it out but I didn't read any new Marvel/DC style stuff. Most of what I read was old reprints (not even published this year), mini-comics, and old crappy back issues I found for 10 cents each like Image books from the early 90s.

Jeff MoreciWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 8:36am PST

Hey Dan! I may; I'm still waiting to hear back from someone regarding other plans. I recently saw the Girl w/Dragon Tattoo which I hear may be adapted to comics? I can address that. I also saw TinTin and read the comic the movie was based on.

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 8:31am PST

Okay, so just trying to get a final head count of who is available to record a year-end show tomorrow night, say around 8:00pm?

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, December 15, 2011 at 10:48am PST

That'd be interesting... I mean YIBR planned on recording something like this too. Just not sure if it'd fit in the same timeframe.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 15, 2011 at 9:20am PST

YES! I'm down. Although I feel like I'm totally unqualified because I read so little new stuff other than BP and H4H (well, V4H now), and whatever my friends make. But uhhh... I can also talk about Super Haters!!!! Also, though it's sorta unrelated but might be fun, we could make the recording session a podcast crossover and do a "year in entertainment" for 2011 that I could run on the AudioShocker. But no pressure. Just tossing it out there.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardThursday, December 15, 2011 at 7:50am PST

Possibly, yes. Have to be more towards x-mas and less towards new years because of honeymoon.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, December 15, 2011 at 7:34am PST

Hey guys, I know this is probably a long shot because everyone's busy around the holidays, but I was thinking of doing a year-end episode of CBP the week between Christmas and New Years and wanted to see if anyone was interested and/or available to be on to talk about the year in comics for 2011 and what's coming up in 2012.

Nick Marino, Fawndolyn Valentine, Kenny Riot
Fawndolyn ValentineWednesday, October 9, 2013 at 9:55am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 4, 2012 at 11:51am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 4, 2012 at 11:51am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 7, 2012 at 1:18pm PST

Rita emailed us so we're good to go. Giveaways are awesome!!!!!!! And that's cool about the student. I look forward to meeting her. THX!!!!

Corey WittigWednesday, March 7, 2012 at 10:01am PST

Hey, Guys, Sorry I've been MIA with Out of the Gutter lately, but it's just not been working out schedule-wise. The same goes for this month, unfortunately (I'm taking some vacation time that Monday and Tuesday) but I've got some OOTG info for you: 1) You already know this, I think, but Renee is off to greener pastures. Have you both met or been in touch with Rita, the new First Floor contact? I think she always works evenings, so she should be easy to get a hold of on OOTG Mondays. 2) I have a few graphic novels that you guys can use as giveaways or whatever you like. I'll leave them with Rita, so see her before the next meeting if you'd like to pick 'em up. 3) A local high school student named Ariana Pluchinsky [Ariana.Pluchinsky@cityhigh.org] got in touch with me; she's writing a research paper on indie comics and would like to attend this month's meeting. I told her I'd let you guys know she was coming--I hope she attends! That's it for now. Let me know if you guys ever need anything. Best, CW

Nick Marino, James Beihl

Vince Volpert, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoThursday, December 29, 2011 at 6:57am PST

Glad to help! Let me know when the book is live.

Vince VolpertWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 11:43pm PST

Hi Nick, After some research, I found out that SOMETIMES an eISBN will be created along with the printed format of a book (thus the ISBN number). However, after looking about Barnes and Noble and Amazon, they are not necessarily giving eISBN numbers in their records. So, I am thinking that it is optional at best, if someone pursues to get their books in databases (e.g., libraries). My book should be out very soon. Thanks for all of your help! Talk to you later! -Vince V.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 6:56pm PST

I've never heard of eISBN! Let me know what you find out :)

Vince VolpertWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 6:55pm PST

Hi Nick, I have a quick question regarding ISBN. When I upload my book, will the ISBN also count as an "eISBN?" I have been noticing that on the Barnes and Noble ebook pages with ISBN and "eISBN". I was just curious. Thanks again! -Vince V.

Vince VolpertSunday, December 11, 2011 at 11:58am PST

Hi Nick, Thank you very much for the information! I still have to research a bit. ISBN number will be my first step (once I am done editing my book). Thanks again! -Vince V.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 11, 2011 at 10:55am PST

Okay, so let's start with the biggie -- getting an ISBN. I don't know how far you've looked into the process, but from my research, I found that it can get VERY expensive. Especially if you buy directly from the government. I recommend seeing if you can get a discounted ISBN somehow. I don't have a good site for you to go to off the top of my head, but I'm sure a Google search will net some results. I've seen discounted ISBNs offered for as low as $20 (though I don't know if that was a legit offer). As for having rights, by virtue of writing and publishing it, you retain ALL rights to your work. Copyright registration isn't a necessity, especially as a self-publisher. You can put a copyright symbol on your material without going through the official registration process (which is very long and expensive). From my research, I've determined that an official government copyright may net you some smoother times if you ever get into litigation, but you don't have to officially register it unless you think that somebody else is coming out with something almost exactly like your work and you want to have a date attached to your creation to avoid legal issues. Otherwise, you're fine with just claiming "All Rights Reserved" somewhere within the text. For printing, there are a ton of options out there now. Beware of over inflated prices from print-on-demand companies! You should be able to get your softcovers for a few bucks a piece, especially if you're willing to format it yourself. The formatting and design aspects may cost you though, if you don't know how to do it on your own. As for digital distribution, I highly recommend it. Sell through the Amazon Kindle, Smashwords, and B&N Nook. You're not going to see huge sales at first. But if you really put in the time and hard work to market it through a blog, Facebook, Twitter, and message boards, you'll see your sales rise. Especially Twitter and message boards. They seems to have the highest growth potential for audience building. I mean, just get involved in online communities wherever you can and mention your book when it feels appropriate, you know? I think the only MUST KNOW thing is that it's a slow process that takes a ton of self-promotion work to sell copies of your book, be it print or digital. There are a lot of indie author resources online now, and if you haven't perused them yet, go check 'em out!

Vince VolpertSunday, December 11, 2011 at 10:36am PST

Hi Nick, Sorry for not specifying. Yes, it is a novel (well, short stories-fiction). Hope that helps! And thank you! -Vince V.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 11, 2011 at 7:02am PST

Hi Vince! Man, there is SOOOOO much to tell you. I assume you're talking about self-publishing a novel and not a comic book, right? I ask because I specialize in comics, and while I also write prose, most of my self-publishing experience is in comics. The good news is that if you're talking about self-publishing a novel, it's a lot easier than comics! The bad news is that, while I still know a decent amount, I know a lot less about prose self-publishing. Anyway, I figure, once we're clear on that, I can start to tell you everything I know :)

Vince VolpertSunday, December 11, 2011 at 12:13am PST

Hello, My name is Vince Volpert, a friend of Kenny Riot for five plus years. I was talking to Kenny about self-publishing (I wrote a book), and have decided to go down this route. However, since I am new at this, I was wondering if you have any tips? Anything that is a "must know" step? I did some research regarding e-Readers/ebook formats, and it seems to be a quick process (takes a few weeks to get it out there). I also want to buy my own ISBN number, copyright, etc. so I have rights to what I created. Any suggestions? I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you very much! -Vince Volpert

thom delairMonday, December 5, 2011 at 9:22am PST

Hi Nick, Hey, so lately I have been working on putting together a video blog where I want to be reviewing independent comics. You are defiantly one of the artists that would work well for this blog and wanted to know if there was something specific you would want me to talk about, if you are interested. I am going to try to be at the lunch thing tomorrow, we could talk about it then, or just message me back. Thom

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... ideas: - social media: powerful tool or powerful distraction? - the kind of hours/schedule we keep and how we think it affects our art - from computer to print: the way colors change from your screen to the page

Jeremy BaumFriday, May 31, 2013 at 9:06am PDT

gah. no wait. that appointment is next week. SO: what do you want to talk about?

Jeremy BaumFriday, May 31, 2013 at 8:59am PDT

got a dr. appointment at 12:30

Nick MarinoFriday, May 31, 2013 at 8:16am PDT

i could do tomorrow at noon if you're down.

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 30, 2013 at 10:29am PDT

yeah pretty much. although on mornings after worknights i tend to be a little zombie-like.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 10:01am PDT

noon on any day?

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:58am PDT

noonish is good.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

okay, cool. i'm making some changes to the audioshocker schedule that should go into place next week. there *might* be an opportunity to record an episode of Sequential Underground this weekend. if you're interested, what times would be good for you?

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:34am PDT

i dunno. i go on tangents a lot so i can pretty much talk about whatever. let me know ahead of time what topic you land on. my work schedule is inconsistent right now as i am trading work nights with angela, trying to meet a deadline for a big project. thus a day or 2 notice would be nice. my next work days are sun mon tues and then the following sun mon tues weds.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:29am PDT

glad you liked it! you should definitely join us in the near future. any topics you'd like to talk about? also, are you still on the same work schedule?

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 30, 2013 at 9:27am PDT

i really enjoyed your latest podcast. if you ever want to do another one together i am at your service.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 8, 2013 at 5:33am PDT

hehe why is Memory listed as $1,600 on Etsy??? hahahaha! anyway, i was going to link to the book from my list of comics i've done... is the Etsy link the best place? or is there somewhere else people can buy a copy?

Jeremy BaumSunday, April 7, 2013 at 4:25pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 4, 2013 at 12:47pm PDT

3763 E 11th St Apt 102 Long Beach, CA 90804 thx!!!!!!!

Jeremy BaumWednesday, February 27, 2013 at 9:37am PST

i really appreciate it. thanks a ton, brother.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 27, 2013 at 9:34am PST

major bummer! i'll send em over to you soon.

Jeremy BaumWednesday, February 27, 2013 at 9:28am PST

hey sorry to bug you. to make a long story short my computer crashed and my hard drive got wiped clean. luckily i backup files compulsively and only lost a couple of weeks worth of my own work. i did lose all of the anthology files though. luckily i was able to track down and redownload everyone's submissions except for the few, mostly those who submitted to me via weblinks that have since expired. thus could you PLEASE resend your contribution to madbaumer37@hotmail.com ASAP. thanks. sorry for the inconvenience. hope you understand.

Jeremy BaumThursday, February 21, 2013 at 7:14pm PST

sweet! thanks!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 21, 2013 at 5:36pm PST

hmmmmmmmmmmm k, i'm pretty much all PC nowadays. when i was Mac, i used a program called Call Recorder. but i had to pay for it. lemme check..... i just checked and i'm still able to download it. i'm gonna email it to you now.

Jeremy BaumThursday, February 21, 2013 at 4:19pm PST

mac.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 21, 2013 at 1:53pm PST

are you on a mac or pc?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 21, 2013 at 1:52pm PST

scratch that. the email isn't the right thing for what you're trying to do.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 21, 2013 at 1:51pm PST

i sent a friend some similar info recently. i'll forward you the email.

Jeremy BaumThursday, February 21, 2013 at 1:01pm PST

hey nick. i want to do a series of podcasts. interviews via skype like you do. i have virtually no knowledge of audio outside of itunes. i'm not really looking to edit these things. just a short run of interviews/conversations with people. any chance you could give me a run down on what i would need to do? (for example i don't know how to record something in skype, etc.)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 11, 2013 at 9:09pm PST

it came out great! thx for including me in that post. i promoted the hell out of it today.

Jeremy BaumMonday, February 11, 2013 at 7:13pm PST

Jeremy BaumMonday, February 11, 2013 at 8:09am PST

good work, sir. i'm on it. :)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 11, 2013 at 8:05am PST

i know Robot 6 was does a "Kickstart My Art" feature... did you write to them? also, dunno if you already contacted her, but Heidi McDonald at The Beat seems to run pretty much any and every story that's Jim Rugg related :D haha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 7, 2013 at 7:46am PST

only little things. and even when i read PDF comics that don't do these little things, they're still fine. i'll just describe my settings. and my apologies if this info is redundant or overly simple type of stuff. i like to use 72 dpi images sized at least 960 px wide. you can make the dpi higher, but honestly it won't make much of a difference except for the file size. if you want higher quality files, you might as well increase the pixel dimensions and leave the dpi at 72. something that's messed up my ebooks before is forgetting to make all of the images the same size and dpi. i know that sounds kinda obvious, but i still think it's worth mentioning!!! the other thing i've noticed is that PDFs made from PNGs look waaaaaaay better. however, in my experience, every single file needs to be a PNG because otherwise Adobe will put JPG compression on the images. maybe that's a flaw in my Acrobat settings, but that's what happened to me in the past when i included a couple of JPGs in with a bunch of PNGs. (but not "save for web" PNGs since those limit the color palette and add distortion (unless the color palette's already really limited, that is... then "save for web" will save some space!).)

Jeremy BaumThursday, February 7, 2013 at 7:28am PST

perfect. thank you. btw: is there anything in regards to format, that i should be wary of other than simply making a pdf? (i know absolutely nothing about ebooks)

Nick MarinoThursday, February 7, 2013 at 7:27am PST

fo sho!!! i just redid all of my ebooks last night so the timing is good. i'll email you everything i have right now and you can decide what you'd like to include.

Jeremy BaumThursday, February 7, 2013 at 7:23am PST

yes. i was actually meaning to approach you about that. i would love to get some super-haters in there!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 7, 2013 at 7:19am PST

the kickstarter looks great!!!! i'd like to contribute some of my PDF comics to the digital bundle if you're still looking for content :D

Jeremy BaumTuesday, January 22, 2013 at 10:27am PST

that's awesome brother. i appreciate it. here are some options for you to pick and choose from: 1. simply sharing the link to the kickstarter in any and all online avenues: social media sites, forums, reviews websites, etc. 2. any physical copies of your solo comics 3. so far there will be a "baum" package and a "tripodi" package that offers original artwork and/or commissions. let me know if you want me to throw a "marino" one up there. 4. if there's anything else you can think of. please don't feel obligated to, though. only what you really want to do, ok?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 22, 2013 at 9:13am PST

what can i do to help promote the kickstarter? i wanna do everything i can to help make it successful!!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 26, 2012 at 5:41am PST

yeah, he's great. thx for taking the stuff!!!

Jeremy BaumMonday, November 26, 2012 at 2:55am PST

thanks again for the cool swag. this basil wolverton graphic novel is fucking gorgeous.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:35pm PST

i was wrong. not an event listing... but nate posted the info: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10100559269352138&set=a.837357362578.2331761.60717201

Jeremy BaumFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:33pm PST

do you have a link to the event?

Jeremy BaumFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:28pm PST

i'll see what i can do!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:28pm PST

Awesome Books, downtown. YOU SHOULD COME!! it's at 7, i think. there's a Facebook event for it out there somewhere.

Jeremy BaumFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:26pm PST

beats me, brother. hard for me to get out much, ya know? where's the bears in space thing?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:25pm PST

i'm going to the Bears in Space release party tomorrow, and then there's that Century III Mall show on Sunday. you?

Jeremy BaumFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:16pm PST

oh pretty good. keeping myself busy (keeps me out of trouble) anything cool going on soon?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:14pm PST

not bad. kinda busy and burned out :D how you doin?

Jeremy BaumFriday, November 9, 2012 at 1:14pm PST

hey man. how have you been?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 18, 2012 at 1:00pm PDT

yeah, it was tons of fun!! just shit-tacular sales. nothing too notable that i can think of... at least, nothing that notable for me!

Jeremy BaumThursday, October 18, 2012 at 11:25am PDT

keep them and use them for your next show. or give them to bill at copacetic. he'll know what to do with them. i probably won't be there. i'm really sorry to hear you had a shitty show. did you have a fun time otherwise? anything notable occur?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 17, 2012 at 11:21am PDT

sooooooooooooooooooo... my sales at NYCC weren't so hot. in fact, it was financially the worst show i've ever done. ever. that includes one day shows like the Zine Fair. i think i sold like $30 worth of stuff. just absolutely horrible. but i did sell a copy of Arcadia within the first 15 minutes of the show!!! anyway, i've got your comics ready for ya whenever you want them. are you going to Andy's Andromeda release party at Copacetic on Thursday?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 9:07am PDT

done

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 8:39am PDT

giddy up.

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 8:39am PDT

high noon, pilgrumm.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 8:16am PDT

okay, sunday works. name your time!!

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 7:52am PDT

early either day. sunday would be best.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 7:50am PDT

either tomorrow or sunday. anytime. what works best for you?

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 7:02am PDT

sure! i have to bring some to bill anyways. when?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 7:01am PDT

yeah, sounds good. wanna meet at copacetic / lili?

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:51am PDT

do you want to meet at a comic or coffee shop this weekend?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:50am PDT

hmmmmmmmmmm i dunno the best way to get them to me!! i'm open to suggestions.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:49am PDT

that's cool. i mean more like the number of comics! just curious because i pack all of these comics in my suitcase and i don't check the bag so i need to plan as much of it out ahead of time as possible. also, i'm splitting a table and my space is 3'x3', so i need to think about where everything is gonna sit in that tight space.

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:46am PDT

how would you like me to get these to you?

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:46am PDT

postland and extravagant traveler

Nick MarinoFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:45am PDT

it's not imposing! i'd be glad to bring some of your stuff with me and your offer of letting me keep the $$ is very generous. how many more comics were you thinking?

Jeremy BaumFriday, October 5, 2012 at 6:15am PDT

hey man. i had an idea after seeing you last night. it's just an idea, and if i am imposing myself and/or you don't like it please forgive my rudeness. what if i gave you several of my comics to sell at your table. you can keep ANY and ALL money made off of them to go towards your expenses of being there. and whatever books you don't sell i'll take back. what do you think?

Jeremy BaumSaturday, September 29, 2012 at 5:16pm PDT

sure. i printed some up this week. please take some!

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 29, 2012 at 4:11pm PDT

okay, cooool! thx. see ya Thurs night a.k.a. 1 AM on Friday. unrelated but still sorta related -- would you like me to bring some copies of the anthology to NYCC? if so, i'll need to get them from you when i see you next week.

Jeremy BaumSaturday, September 29, 2012 at 1:50pm PDT

wed thur or fri night.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 29, 2012 at 11:17am PDT

yo! i need to print up some comics next week. when would be the best morning to come see you?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

yeah, i'm mildly unclear on what's going on with that... i'll have to talk to Andy about it! thx for spotting it. i missed the organizers meeting this weekend because of SPX, so i'm a little behind on what's going on.

Jeremy BaumMonday, September 17, 2012 at 1:12pm PDT

by the look of the floor map, it looks like there was a cancellation already.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 12:30pm PDT

hahahahaha i do buy my fruit fresh 95% of the time! i was just curious about that canned mango. thx for the offer!! i might steal just a tiny slice of table space from you. but if it's cool with you, i'm gonna wait and see what happens on the day of the show. there are always last minute cancellations and stuff like that. plus, since i'm organizing the damn thing i can pretty much do whatever the hell i want so i'm sure its gonna work out just fine.

Jeremy BaumMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:21am PDT

oops. skip that. looks like i can go after all! :) i am more than happy to split my table with you though.

Jeremy BaumSunday, September 16, 2012 at 8:58pm PDT

something came up and i can't go to the zine fair. my table is all your's man. have a good time. and for fuck's sake, buy your fruit fresh.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 5, 2012 at 10:29am PDT

k, sounds good. see ya then!

Jeremy BaumWednesday, September 5, 2012 at 10:22am PDT

make it 1:00 am just to be safe.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 4, 2012 at 2:52pm PDT

yeah, i can do friday night instead. midnight sound good?

Jeremy BaumTuesday, September 4, 2012 at 2:46pm PDT

friday night preferably

Jeremy BaumTuesday, September 4, 2012 at 2:46pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 4, 2012 at 1:06pm PDT

i'm thinking about coming to see you this thursday night / friday morning to get some stuff printed. that okay with you?

Nick MarinoFriday, August 31, 2012 at 11:48am PDT

nah, not at all!!! i'm into that type of stuff, trying to figure why shit is the way it is.

Jeremy BaumFriday, August 31, 2012 at 11:33am PDT

hahaha sorry. i'm a dork. :)

Nick MarinoFriday, August 31, 2012 at 8:43am PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmm interesting!!! #2 is a yes. #1 is also a yes but i was 20 and i already hated soggy bread!! and #3, thankfully, is a no. the theory makes sense for me... except i don't really associate soggy bread with bad times in my life or anything. i just think it's nasty!

Jeremy BaumFriday, August 31, 2012 at 2:16am PDT

hey man. i'm at work right now and i was working on some monotonous job and i think i figured out your soggy bread dilemma. you don't have to answer these questions if you don't want to but here are my possible answers. 1. did your parents divorce at an age where you were able to remember/witness it well? 2. did your family move around a lot as a kid? 3 did you grow up throughout periods of remarkable poverty? my theory: soggy bread = lack of stability of course i might be completely wrong on this one and probably am...

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 29, 2012 at 1:39pm PDT

so glad to hear!! i really dug the conversation.

Jeremy BaumWednesday, August 29, 2012 at 1:34pm PDT

thanks again, very much so, for having me as a guest. i feel like i got something crucial off of my chest in doing so, although to put my finger on it precisely would be futile of me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 7:18am PDT

hahahahaha yeah agreed!!!

Jeremy BaumTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 6:35am PDT

dude. thank you so very much. here's to hoping we get to do a little lord-of-the-flies-style pygmy dance in the winners' circle.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 28, 2012 at 9:29am PDT

s'all good, man!!! you gotta see if even like it first ;D

Jeremy BaumThursday, June 28, 2012 at 3:10am PDT

PS: can't wait to read it. i'm still committed to drawing itonce i get the chance.

Jeremy BaumThursday, June 28, 2012 at 12:33am PDT

sweet! i've actually got a LOT on my plate right now. but i should have the bulk of it finished within the next 10 days or so.

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 27, 2012 at 11:04pm PDT

I FINALLY FINISHED THE SCRIPT! I'm gonna sleep on it and proof read it tomorrow. And then I'll email it over to ya :D

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 24, 2012 at 7:33am PDT

just got home from work. held over late by 2 people calling off. been awake yesterday. pretty useles socially and creatively, if not functionally as well. i know. i suck. sorry.

Jeremy BaumWednesday, May 23, 2012 at 6:01am PDT

roger. over and out.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 23, 2012 at 5:26am PDT

nice choice. we'll definitely need to plot that one together because it's the least developed!!! we are meeting up tomorrow, around 11 at crazy mocha in bloomfield. WEAR YOUR DRAWING SHOES.

Jeremy BaumWednesday, May 23, 2012 at 4:08am PDT

hey sorry for the lagging reply. this week has been insane i really like the idea of yours where mind's eye is searching for destructotron. are you guys meeting up tomorrow?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

my username is nickmarino82

Jeremy BaumTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

what's the phone number?

Jeremy BaumTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:32am PDT

logging on now.....

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:32am PDT

did it woooooooooooork?

Jeremy BaumTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:27am PDT

yoyoyo

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 9:12am PDT

okay, i think i found you on Skype. and just added you as a contact, i hope!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 5:21am PDT

today? yeah, i could swing that.

Jeremy BaumTuesday, May 15, 2012 at 2:36am PDT

i'll call you once my dentist appt is over. noonish-1ish sound cool?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 14, 2012 at 9:38pm PDT

haha okay, clothed Skyping it is. when are some good times for you?

Jeremy BaumMonday, May 14, 2012 at 5:53pm PDT

oh shit. haha. thanks for the tip. yeah dude. we could skype. i'll even go the extra mile and put clothes on.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 14, 2012 at 5:36pm PDT

Not this Weds!!! It's on the 30th. Yeah I'll be there. Do you Skype? We could always get the ball rolling that way.

Jeremy BaumMonday, May 14, 2012 at 4:27pm PDT

i'll try for sure. this week is going to be crazy. you goin to nate's release party at copacetic on weds?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 14, 2012 at 3:32pm PDT

Thurs, crazy mocha, Bloomfield, 1 pm, if you're interested!

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 3, 2012 at 5:29am PDT

well, i really hope i see you there, whether at comic day or rugg's after party. if not, then next thursday for sure. promise. peace.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 3, 2012 at 5:28am PDT

no worries. i may or may not be there this weekend... family stuff with dates that i'm not clear about yet. but hopefully!!!

Jeremy BaumThursday, May 3, 2012 at 5:27am PDT

hey man, i'm really sorry but i can't come up today. i've got a bunch of freelance work that was just sprung on me. will i see you at the toonseum on saturday? again, sorry to flake out on ya, although thursday of next week is looking to be a sure bet. let me know.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 5:46pm PDT

shawn and i are down for meeting up on thursday... but we're flexible if you have a better day/time!

Jeremy BaumSunday, April 29, 2012 at 8:07am PDT

nah, man. 1pm is cool! that allows me a nap before and after. (i can never really manage to sleep more than a couple of hours at a time. yeah, it sucks.)

Nick MarinoSunday, April 29, 2012 at 7:54am PDT

well, the time is gonna be the suckiest part for you because it's around 1ish, which i assume is right in the middle of your sleepy time. i'm flexible, though! so it doesn't have to be that time!!! what are some good times for you?

Jeremy BaumSunday, April 29, 2012 at 12:56am PDT

i'm a difficult person to catch up with. i work 11-hour graveyard shifts wed,thur,fri and sometimes sat nights. usually if i want to pretend to have a social life i have to either skip out on sleep and head out before i go to work in the evening, or venture out while my stepdaughter is in kindergarten on weekday mornings. but i do have a car and i would definitely be interested in shooting for crazy mocha, as virgina and shawn are both people i really enjoy as well. what time do you guys usually meet up?

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 28, 2012 at 6:35pm PDT

Yeah, definitely! I'm flattered that you asked. The process for every one of my collaborations has been different, so there's no definite "I need this" type of thing. The main difference between you and my other collaborators is that I've known all of them and their creation processes pretty well before we started working together. Would you be down for meeting up at a coffee shop and talking things over as a way to get started? I live in East Lib and I ride the bus, so that's my limitation in terms of where to meet. Shawn, Virginia, and I normally hang at the Crazy Mocha in Bloomfield on Thurs afternoon if that works for you.

Jeremy BaumSaturday, April 28, 2012 at 5:44pm PDT

hey man. want any more guests for super haters? if so, what do you need from me?

Nick Marino, Amanda Manol
Amanda ManolSaturday, November 19, 2011 at 1:24pm PST

Hey everyone! Just a reminder that next Saturday is Byrons 40th birthday party, and the first big party we're having at the house! We hope to see you all there! If you think you can make it and haven't had a chance to rsvp, kindly do so. I have a lot of tasty nibbles and swell cocktails planned, but feel free to contribute if the idea pleases ya. See you soon! Amanda : )

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Virginia Shields
Shawn AtkinsMonday, June 18, 2012 at 7:12pm PDT

Awesome

Virginia ShieldsMonday, June 18, 2012 at 4:44pm PDT

Naw it's cool...I haven't started my new schedule yet. So same time same place works for me!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 18, 2012 at 1:53pm PDT

I'm guessing since V is on her new schedule it'll have to be tomorrow or Friday, right?

Shawn AtkinsMonday, June 18, 2012 at 1:03pm PDT

Hey gang we kickin it this week. Same time same place

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, June 12, 2012 at 2:51pm PDT

I can't do the usual cause I'm working Thursday so I can be off Friday and go to anthrocon. If you guys are still interested in going let me know and we can meet up there!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, June 12, 2012 at 8:26am PDT

Hey gang we kickin it this week?

Nils Skeletonballs, Nick Marino
Nils SkeletonballsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:55am PDT

word

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:55am PDT

it's totally cool! you can come hang at any point in the 24 hours. not disruptive at all.

Nils SkeletonballsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:53am PDT

I won't be able to make the whole 24 Hour Comic Day, but is it okay to drop in for part of it, or does that disrupt the event?

Nils HanczarMonday, September 26, 2011 at 9:07am PDT

don't know yet

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 3:53pm PDT

THX!!!! I'm digging your comics on the skeletonballs site. Are you doing 24 Hr Comics Day at the Toonseum?

Nils HanczarWednesday, September 21, 2011 at 2:58pm PDT

Thanks for the comics the other day, Man. You have the right attitude. PEACE. - Nils Balls - OVER

You gotta add me to that list thing you told me about!

Pat LewisSunday, July 31, 2011 at 7:19pm PDT

Ah, yeah! I remembered kind of at the last minute, and headed over there late. It was a pretty small turnout this month anyway; I guess a lot of people are away on vacation or something. Oh well, next time!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 29, 2011 at 5:12pm PDT

ahhhhhh crap! i totally forgot about PSI meeting tonight.

I really appreciate all the work that's going into the project, both art-wise and advertising-wise

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:14am PST

We'll have more coverage today on fanboycomics

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:13am PST

I'm just waiting to see what happens.

Shawn AtkinsFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:06am PST

still nervous but a little at ease. 900 buck in three days is abit over whelming

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:04am PST

Awesome. I'll make an update tonight with the new reward options. How is everyone feeling about the kickstarter?

Shawn AtkinsFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:03am PST

2 bucks

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:02am PST

$2

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:01am PST

how much are your minis?

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 11:01am PST

Alright, so Jared's is Incedi-mutt, and Shawn's is Bushido revolver. I have to make up a mini-comic name for one I haven't made yet. Any suggestions?

Shawn AtkinsFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:59am PST

I can offer copies of invasion or Bushido revolver

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:52am PST

Okay then I'll offer up "incredi-mutt". That's the name of the mini

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:51am PST

Early February

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:51am PST

When is that? I'm guessing it won't be a problem but still would be a good idea to know for sure to make sure I get it done in time.

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:46am PST

Okay. The mini-comics just need to be done by the time we ship

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:44am PST

I guess it depends on when they need to be done and sent out. I'm wrapping up an Incrediman mini comic

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:43am PST

Might as well offer copies of Walrus

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:43am PST

That's a good question

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:42am PST

What mini-comic do you want to sell?

Jared CatherineFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:42am PST

Go for it

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:40am PST

The mini-comic add on would also include songs perhaps? What say you musicians?

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 10:39am PST

NEW REWARD IDEA- What do you think of a mini-comic add on? Virginia said she would sell her Pittsburgh sayings thing. You'd get all the money for the comics you sell, as if you sold them at a con.

Shawn AtkinsFriday, December 13, 2013 at 8:33am PST

Si senor

Shawn AtkinsFriday, December 13, 2013 at 8:33am PST

Cynthia LeeFriday, December 13, 2013 at 8:04am PST

Feel free to invite your friends to the end of the kickstarter party. The actual party doesn't matter as much as the invitation, even if they're all the way in California (like a bunch of my high school friends)

Nick MarinoThursday, October 20, 2011 at 10:32am PDT

okay great. i probably underestimated my timing by saying 2.... so more like 2:30! but i'll be there soon :)

Renée AlbertsThursday, October 20, 2011 at 10:28am PDT

Hi Nick, 2 is fine. I will be on teh desk on the second floor in the Reference Department from 2 until 4. Thanks, Renée

Nick MarinoThursday, October 20, 2011 at 9:42am PDT

Sorry! I just got home yesterday and been running around since. How about 2?

Renée AlbertsWednesday, October 19, 2011 at 12:51pm PDT

Can you give me an exact time or range of hours? That way , I can make sure I'm finable.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 19, 2011 at 11:40am PDT

Tomorrow is good! Do you want me to give you an exact time or should I just stop by?

Renée AlbertsTuesday, October 18, 2011 at 5:51am PDT

Hi Nick, You can catch me at the library Thursday between 10 and 4. Friday I won't be here. If that time doesn't work for you, we can meet next week. Thanks again! peace, Renée

Nick MarinoMonday, October 17, 2011 at 7:36pm PDT

Thx for the update. I'M SO EXCITED!!!! I can stop by the library pretty much anytime after this Wednesday. What's your schedule like on Thurs and Fri?

Renée AlbertsMonday, October 17, 2011 at 4:55pm PDT

Hi Nick, We met tonight to discuss the future of Out of the Gutter, and I want to update you. Nate McDonough will be the other volunteer facilitator, so one of you should be at every meeting. You'll have minor responsibilities, like counting attendance and tracking your time here. Corey and I are available to you for help with facilitating, promotion and anything else. You're both now admins of the Out of the Gutter Facebook group, and once the group decides what titles you'll discuss for the next round of meetings, Corey and I will have the library make flyers for you to distribute (and to display here). People seemed enthusiastic about the group continuing to meet, and expressed satisfaction with the format we've used so far, as well as the possibility for new approaches. People said that they appreciated the every-other-month approach, discussing a specific graphic novel (or specific theme) one month and featuring a guest speaker (or your idea of a panel, or a possible drawing group or other option) on the alternate months. For next month, so you all can jump right in, we chose to discuss Asterios Polyp by David Mazzucchelli. I placed holds on all of the copies in the system, so anyone who wants to come to the group can ask a librarian on the first floor for a copy. There are two places on the CLP website for the group: - http://www.carnegielibrary.org/books/bookgroups/graphicnovel.html detailed page with images and past discussion topics and - http://www.carnegielibrary.org/events/index.cfm?keyword=gutter&x=0&y=0&by=keyword CLP calendar page Here are the two things I need from you before the next meeting on November 21st: - To register as a volunteer with us, please fill out the volunteer form here: http://www.carnegielibrary.org/about/support/volunteer/applicationform.cfm Under "At which library location(s) would you prefer to volunteer?" say that you're volunteering with me for Out of the Gutter. - Please let me know when you can come to the library, so I can show you where the hours tracking and attendance forms are. This will only take 15 minutes. Thanks again for volunteering to keep the group going. Corey and I are thrilled with everyone's participation and excited that the group will continue to thrive in your hands. peace, Renée

I found it streaming on some shady site.

haha wait Fawn... if you didn't open it, then how did you watch it???

Fawndolyn ValentineFriday, October 11, 2013 at 9:14am PDT

I'm also wondering if I can open it, because I think the disc came off its anchor when it was shipped to me, so I'd like to fix that and secure it so it doesn't get scratched up.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 11, 2013 at 9:10am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 11, 2012 at 8:20am PST

Hi Kyle - I'm a cartoonist and podcaster, and I have a bi-monthly podcast about indie comics creation called Sequential Underground. If you're interested, I'd love to have you join us on an upcoming episode. BUT... here's the catch: I'm not interested in doing an interview -- I'm interested in having a conversation with you. The way it works is that we all (and by "we all" I mean you, me, and couple of other Pittsburgh cartoonists that also co-host the show) agree on a topic ahead of time... a topic that we all feel like we can really riff on for 45-60 mins. It's kinda like jazz podcasting, if you will. More improvisational and spontaneous than your regular podcasting experience. And we record over Skype. Interested?

Byron WintonWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 11:41am PST

I'll contribute.

Jeff MoreciWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 11:16am PST

Sure! That's a nice gesture. I'm in.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 10:57am PST

Oh, sure, definitely then

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 10:16am PST

Thats okay Link, I'm not worried about getting anything up front, I'm just wanted to see if there was any interest.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 9:55am PST

Could be possible. I never seem to carry cash on me though.

Marcel Lamont WalkerWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 9:19am PST

I'm in! 8^)

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 14, 2011 at 9:03am PST

Hey guys, I'm going to get the staff of POTA a cookie tray and/or a sandwich ring for the holidays and I wanted to see if anyone else wanted to go in on it with me. Just a little 'thank you' to them for being awesome all year around. I'll probably take it down next Wednesday afternoon, so let me know if you're interested in chipping in before then. Dan

Daniel BartonFriday, May 11, 2012 at 9:59am PDT

Thanks! Ill check it out.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 11, 2012 at 7:52am PDT

I don't sell them from my website yet (although I do use DriveThruComics to sell a PDF of one of my books, Time Log). I sell the majority of my PDFs using Dropcards, which are download cards (basically they look like gift cards) that have unique codes on the back. It's my way of selling digital comics in a store or a convention setting. If you're interested in finding out more about the Dropcards thing, here are a couple of blog posts about them: http://www.audioshocker.com/2011/05/02/audioshocker-comics-archives-v1-digital-comic-cards http://www.nickmarino.net/2011/03/11/goodbye-comic-books-hello-comic-cards/

I don't see where you sell pdf's on you website. Where can I find that option?

Shawn AtkinsThursday, May 1, 2014 at 8:20pm PDT

Thanks man that really helped.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 30, 2014 at 7:04pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmmmm it's an interesting question. i think it all depends on the context of your story. changing herself just to fit in with everyone's view of "normal" sounds like a pretty big bummer. but changing herself to be more of who she wants to be, regardless of what other people think, makes for a more empowering protagonist. BUT with that said, if you go the route of having her change to fit in, that decision could come back later to haunt her later. so either way, as long as you write it well and you make sure to follow up on the ramifications of her decision, it'll add complexity and conflict to the character.

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, April 30, 2014 at 12:11pm PDT

Hey kids! I a writing question, so in between drawing pepper jones and other project i thought I'd do some writing on a monster band and one of them is a glob girl and i thought I'd make her origin story a parody of the movie the blob but my hang up is that from a certain angle it looks like she had to change her physical self to fit in with everyone's view of normal. So is the blob thing a good direction and i'm looking to much into that change thing or should come up with some different. Thanks ahead of time for the advise.

i guess you're in the burgh, Nick! Bummed I missed that Boulet lecture but will try to catch yas Saturday???? :) c:j

Christina Joy NeumannWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 9:21am PST

She's essentially everything we abhor in human manipulation .... which is why she gets her own FB and Twitter account so she can speak for herself. My bro is the creator of her nature. i'd say it's evolved to something like 'Misery' (Kathy Bates) meets 'Garfield' meets 'Dynasty'

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 19, 2012 at 7:45am PST

The thing I find most amazing about the story is your main character -- she's a total jerk but there's something extremely charismatic about her look and personality. Really unique.

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, December 18, 2012 at 6:11pm PST

Thanks ^ 1000000, Nick! I have total respect for comic book artists after going through this process ... all the emotional and physical ups and downs and angst of figuring the best way to convey a story. btw - you must figure I really like the Stick Cat adventures .... i think sometime when i'm penciling, a deco-kitty interpretive sketch may just emerge on my trace paper ... ' psycho kitty qu'est ce que c'est.' :P c:j

Nick MarinoMonday, December 17, 2012 at 7:11pm PST

Holy shit I just read all of Ride or Die. It's fucking fantastic!! Your art is great and the story is nuts.

Okay, cool. My digits are 484-798-7753 :D

Christina Joy NeumannSunday, November 25, 2012 at 7:45am PST

Well, I can take a load of stuff you don't want ... to goodwill ... at the very least! Will give ya a call.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 25, 2012 at 7:44am PST

Thx so much for the offer!! Unfortunately, the storage place I'm using closes at 4 PM. However, you're welcome to stop over my place and see if there are any books, movies, electronics or furniture that you want. The less I have to move, the better!!

Christina Joy NeumannSunday, November 25, 2012 at 7:33am PST

Hey, can help u out today with my truckie sometime after 5-5:30. Don't have ur # though ??

Christina Joy NeumannWednesday, August 8, 2012 at 7:30pm PDT

OMG dude - this is awesome! I've only been on FB briefly the last week so sorry for the delay getting back to you. I think I'll just make myself sort of a simple working chronological outline of comic history (for dummies ... aka me) ... pulling from these sources.. I have to put things in writing by my own hands to really internalize the information. See ya in a few weeks! I'll try to bring some original recipe reddi kilowatt cookies to Ed's talk - found the original reddi cookie cutter in w/ my grandma's stash. Looks like this : http://s3.amazonaws.com/bonanzleimages/afu/images/5146/6443/picture_1452.jpg http://www.reddykilowatt.org/ Thanks +++! c:j

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:32am PDT

Okay, so first off... have you read Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics? It's not a history text through and through, but it does cover a lot of stuff in terms of the evolution of comics as we know them. Not an anthology either, but very good! I remember reading the old version of The Comics: An Illustrated History of Comic Strip Art and really liking it. Comix: A History of Comic Books in America is an anthology / history book from the early 70s. I read it as a kid and dug it, though I have no idea what I'd think of it now!!! The reviews of it online are really good. I also read A History of Underground Comics back then and really enjoyed it. But nowadays, with so much content on the internet, there are also a ton of great online resources for comics history. The Comics Journal (www.tcj.com) has most of their back catalog available online now. I recommend these: - http://www.tcj.com/jack-kirby-interview/ - http://www.tcj.com/jerry-robinson-been-there-done-that/ - http://www.tcj.com/the-kevin-eastman-interview-part-i/

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, July 31, 2012 at 1:05pm PDT

No worries and no rush! Haven't even had a second to look but maybe I can just take Wayne's class at Chatham next spring. Wayne didn't know of a single sort of book that covers the breadth of that topic. Will keep an eye out! I'm so swamped with outdoor work it may need to wait till post-harvest season, anyway.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 29, 2012 at 7:22pm PDT

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i never emailed you back about this!!!! SORRY!!!!!!!! ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lemme think on it. will have book titles soon. did you find any since then?

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, July 17, 2012 at 10:19am PDT

Oh thanks! Yeah, share away.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 17, 2012 at 10:13am PDT

Ooooooo tall order!!! I remember reading a book like that many many moons ago. I'll have to do a bit of thinking to remember the title. I'm not home right now, but when I get back I'll cobble together a list :D If it's okay with you, I might share your question and my answer with the Out of the Gutter FB group.

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, July 17, 2012 at 10:04am PDT

Well, thinking about the broad context of the evolution of the art form. Reads that might help me place superhero, indie, etc. into social / political / economic context of their time. ????

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 17, 2012 at 8:57am PDT

I think it kind of depends on what comics you want the history of. All comics? Indie comics? Superhero comics? Specific series? Also, how far back do you want to go? I'm currently in the middle of a few different books related to comics history and they're all pretty good. But they're all pretty different, too. I'll definitely do that next time!!! I feel so stupid for forgetting to try and hunt you down last weekend.

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, July 17, 2012 at 8:45am PDT

Hey, so I'm a total history geek and realized I'd love to check out some sort of history of comics commentary / anthology. Do you have any recommendations of a good overview of comic history ? I know this is a very broad question but need to start somewhere. Oh yeah, if you're ever at Phipps on the weekend, you can just have the Welcome Center radio for me and I can give you a little production tour. It's good to send me a note ahead of time, if you can, so I can adjust my work schedule. :) c:j

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 2:03pm PDT

hehehe walking minion

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

WALKING MINICON!!! fuck spellcheck

Christina Joy NeumannTuesday, May 1, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

a walking minion

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 5:22pm PDT

i'm a walking library, so everytime you see me, there's a good chance i have all of my comics on me :)

Christina Joy NeumannMonday, April 30, 2012 at 4:08pm PDT

Hey, I still wanted to buy a few of those comics that I saw @ the Minicon.... trying to remember which ones now... Sorry we didn't get to that at the last clop mtg., although I actually had cash with me. c:j

Christina Joy NeumannMonday, April 30, 2012 at 2:54pm PDT

K- thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 2:45pm PDT

I don't have anything to do with the originals. I think Marcel may have volunteered to scan them. I'm not sure. Your best bet is to ask Pierce!!

Christina Joy NeumannMonday, April 30, 2012 at 2:42pm PDT

Hi Nick, hey, sorry I left AAN so early. I was just beat/cold/hungry from being on my feet 11 hours that day at the Phipps. Next year, I think I'll bring a ski parka because I don't think I draw well at temps below 50F. Just wanted to curl up and die, Jack London style. Anyway, Pierce mentioned talking to you about getting our stuff back? Might you be bringing them to the next 'out of the gutter'? Was there any other follow-up? I think the story that Marcel started had strayed just a "slight" bit :) c:j

Nick MarinoFriday, January 27, 2012 at 7:40am PST

hahahaha yeah i think it's totally fascinating too! like i really wanna buy a box of Glo Balls even though i would never eat them. it's just so bizarre to me that they put the time into creating and packaging those things. hehehe Glo Balls

Christina Joy NeumannThursday, January 26, 2012 at 6:35pm PST

yeah, i guess what i mean is less to eat comic foods than to just stare at them with utter indigestible horror / fascination ... suppose all the extra high fructose corn syrup pumped through the bloodstream strategically boosts comic sales (and ADD). :/

Nick MarinoThursday, January 26, 2012 at 6:19pm PST

i used to buy any comic book food i could find! fruit snacks, cereal, popsicles, whatever... and i slowly realized that all of the products they put their names on are so nasty! like the worst stuff. so depressing :(

Christina Joy NeumannThursday, January 26, 2012 at 6:13pm PST

not sure why i have an obsession with comic book food (a la those green lantern toxic glo snacks) ... but i do know "C is for Cookie" seems to be the trigger :)

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 3, 2015 at 12:06pm PDT

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

a friend and I were thinking about make a pitch for a game

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

Ha ha ha, well for my senior thesis, instead of just making an animated short film

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, May 13, 2015 at 9:28am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

Super Haters. ComiXology. April 1.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 6:56pm PST

Dude, thank you so much

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 5:58pm PST

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:22pm PST

(Post getting your permission)

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:21pm PST

Nothing's set in stone, but I'm pulling for the use of your music

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:19pm PST

Sweet! Um we were looking at Intra Venus and Nazo if that's cool?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:17pm PST

sure. whatever you want!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:16pm PST

Well more like a few seconds of a track

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:15pm PST

I was wondering if we could use a track?

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 3:15pm PST

Hey! Soooo were working on a dance animation and I was showing my group some of your music.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 17, 2015 at 1:50pm PST

well i'm looking forward to whatever you make!

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 11:02am PST

But yeah I'll be in touch as things develop

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Ha ha ha, yeah the major problem I have NO idea how to make a game!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 11:00am PST

the extra oooo's denote how down i am.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 11:00am PST

well im dooooooooooooown with that

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:53am PST

Especially a very stylistic game

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:52am PST

I think your music would fit good into a game tho

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:52am PST

Yeah I hear ta

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:52am PST

heheh thats cool too

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:52am PST

I don't know if that's the final idea I'm going with but it's one, I also have an idea about a text based RPG/dating sym about a japanese high school which is secretly giving the students special military training

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:52am PST

as for music... what you hear is what you get with me. while i'm down to listen to anything and try to draw inspiration from it, i tend to be pretty consistent with the kind of sound that i produce.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:49am PST

hahaha nice

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:48am PST

My idea so far is a a young hero who ready to go on an RPG style adventure! And when day the village is attacked our hero is ready for adventure the only catch is... His/her parents are coming with!

Brandon WilliamsFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:46am PST

Well I might be developing a fantasy esq story for a class and we have to do a proof of concept so like a finished scene

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:18am PST

are you interested in stuff like the music from those games?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:18am PST

i do listen to old video game music, but not those particular games.

Brandon WilliamsThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:45am PST

Do you ever listen to old video game music? Like Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, or Lunar?

Brandon WilliamsThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:43am PST

I don't what project yet, but I have a few animations projects this semester

Brandon WilliamsThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:43am PST

Awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:42am PST

i'm down for that whenever

Nick MarinoThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:42am PST

hahaha yeah that too :D

Brandon WilliamsThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:18am PST

Nice, but I was thinking of maybe doing some animation to a track or having you score something

Brandon WilliamsThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:17am PST

Ha ha ha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 15, 2015 at 8:04am PST

haha yeah! i have a ton of new drum recordings on my computer and next to no desire to play any instruments over them :D

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:52pm PST

and possible music colab in the future?

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

OH

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

take care dude

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

wOrd

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

cool well i'm gonna split for now. i wanna finish up this script. but yeah collabing. i'm into. i know you're busy but, ya know, if things change...

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:51pm PST

hehe thanks....... let's see how things go next week. might not be a congratulatory situation! haha

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:49pm PST

hey and congrats again on Holy F*ck

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:47pm PST

yeaaaah that would be awesome

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:47pm PST

I bet I can get by pro badge again

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:47pm PST

THAT, would be sweet

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:46pm PST

depending on if you're here and available, maybe you could join :D

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:45pm PST

dude! Nice!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:43pm PST

gotcha. i don't know my exact San Diego situation yet but i plan to be there to support the Holy F*ck collection. i think Daniel's gonna come over from Holland too and we'll go there together.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:43pm PST

kinda depends if I land an internship

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

I haven't really made the plan yet

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

idk

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

Comics are kinda strange

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

speaking of san diego.... are you gonna be out here during that time? early July? (they moved it up this year)

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

ha ha ha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:40pm PST

i met this Marvel Animation employee when i was as San Diego last summer. it was so funny cuz he's talking to me like i know some kind of secret about how to break into comics and meanwhile i'm thinking "holy shit this 20 yr old kid has a job in mvl animation? he's got it made!!!"

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

the animations aren't as bad as the comics

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

but whatever

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

yeah I mean it's maaaarvel

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

you could be one day tho

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

sweet!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

i was looking to live there at first but it didn't make sense for me to pay that much when i'm not doing anything in the biz

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:39pm PST

I got a dude that's going to give me a tour of Marvel animation and other bid studios

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

yeah north hollywood is kinda the defacto spot for that.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

and yes! HANG

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

need somewhere cheap but close to Burbank

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

idk

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:38pm PST

yeah, we're looking at North Hollywood for living

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:36pm PST

niiiiiiiiiice yeah let's hang. i'm not really in LA proper but i'll drive up to see you.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:36pm PST

looking for internships also, regardless I'll be out there this summer scouting.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

need produce some high level shit!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

I'm doing an independent study for storyboarding this semester

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

Oh yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

how serious are you about the storyboard stuff? are you already thinking of moving out here when you're done?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:34pm PST

well the good part is it seems like you got lots of viable options.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

heh heh

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

I learned that being the old guy at school

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:33pm PST

I think I want to do some teaching at some point too

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

I want to work in the biz a bit, but I have indie ambitions

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

hahha!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

you're like a partial director except you don't get the recognition

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:32pm PST

yeah! good experience too

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:31pm PST

good money

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:31pm PST

that's a sweet gig!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:31pm PST

I've talked to some dudes here and there, and they seem to like me

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:31pm PST

Ha ha ha, but as far as industry goes I'm gunning for storyboarder in L.A>

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

exactly

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

yeah

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

so

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:30pm PST

well, i don't see you making abstract art comics silk screened onto handmade paper, if that's what you mean.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:29pm PST

but I'm fairly commercial by nature at least I think so

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

i have that problem too

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

RIGHT

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

and want to just make stuff worth making

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:28pm PST

it actually seems a bit more accessible to me now than it did say 15 years ago when i was considering it

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

but in a lot of ways I've become "art-s-y-er"

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

in some ways yes

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

um, well

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:27pm PST

do you see a pretty direct character path for you to follow into the biz?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:26pm PST

dude, i know, it boggles my mind.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:25pm PST

seriously, animation production is insane

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:24pm PST

hahaha

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:24pm PST

I need like 3 of me

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

yeah... too easily!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:23pm PST

that happens!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

i've been grinding through a graphic novel for years now that began as 3 8-pagers

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:22pm PST

hehehe yeah i've worked on stuff like that before

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

and it snowballed into an epic

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

yeah I originally pitched I wanted to draw a gender bent Double Dragon and I wanted it to be like 4, 6 page shorts

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

*what will

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

my favorite way to approach a project is find out will elicit maximum enthusiasm from my collaborator :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

i can totally see that.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:20pm PST

that's actually how Sugar And Spice started

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:19pm PST

awesome well that's an ever evolving state

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:19pm PST

Ha ha ha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:16pm PST

to me, that all depends on what you would want to draw!!!!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:02pm PST

?

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:02pm PST

just out of curiosity what kind of story would we do>

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:02pm PST

Dude, I'm like super excited and honored to be on the list of people you want to work with! I so want to jump into a project but I just can't commit at the moment, I'm too afraid i'd drop the ball due to business.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

gotcha. well i'll be totally honest about why i was asking...... i was thinking about who i've worked with before and who i'd want to work with again and you came to mind. i know you're hella busy with school plus you've got plenty of extra-curricular stuff to keep you busy between sugar+spice and your awesome GF....... but i'm always looking to develop new stories, especially now that i know how to pitch to publishers better. so if you're ever in the market to develop some comics, lemme know!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 11:12am PST

Like junior film two semesters then senior

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 11:12am PST

But I couldn't get out of 3 years because of the film structure.

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 11:11am PST

Yeah, I mean I transferred credits

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 10:16am PST

yeah i guess now that i think about it, you just started in the fall, right?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 10:16am PST

boooooooooooo!!!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 9:18am PST

I wish! I have one more year after this :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 8:57am PST

hey how's things? i'm loving the new art you posted! great stuff. so this is your last semester, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 28, 2014 at 8:33am PST

sounds good!

Brandon WilliamsThursday, November 27, 2014 at 9:21pm PST

So I'll hopefully be around, we can chill!

Brandon WilliamsThursday, November 27, 2014 at 9:17pm PST

Well I'm planning on coming out this summer and hanging around trying to pick up work with one of the studios

Nick MarinoThursday, November 27, 2014 at 9:13pm PST

Dude that's great!!! I'm so stoked for you. And if you're back in the LA area again, let's hang!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:15pm PST

so that's exciting

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:15pm PST

Like I'm just a step or two of hard work away from being hirable

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:14pm PST

And got my portfolio reviewed my Disney and a few other big places, and got lots of good feedback

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:14pm PST

I went to this even called CTN in Burbank

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:13pm PST

But

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:13pm PST

Animation is haaaaaard

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 11:13pm PST

thanks! i'd love to work with you again. you gotz mad skillz!!! how's animation going?

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 10:21pm PST

I'm also super excited for the success of Holy F*ck!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 10:20pm PST

yeah I know you're a straight up guy. I hope we get to work together again in the future.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:44pm PST

dude, you know how i roll!!! i'm just thrilled that we told such an awesome short story together and have the opportunity to share it with more people :D

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:20pm PST

I really appreciate you keeping the artists in the loop on this!

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:19pm PST

Sure, will send as soon as I can

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:08pm PST

YAAAAY!!! glad you're down. more info soon :) oh, also, ComiXology asks for short bios for all creators when you go through the application process. do you have a particular picture (600 x 600 px jpg) you'd like me to use? and a couple sentences for a bio?

Brandon WilliamsWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:05pm PST

Go for it dude!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:02pm PST

surprise! here's a thing i did: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/05-manga-haters.pdf (i recommend making the PDF full screen and then using the right arrow key to go page-by-page) i've selected seven Super Haters stories to test out the waters on ComiXology. they're all formatted to be read in that panel-by-panel mode called Guided View Native. i'd like to submit the seven stories as one collected edition to ComiXology. i think a fair split is that each artist will get 10% of the profits and i'll keep everyone updated on our progress once the book is accepted and starts to sell. frankly, i don't expect the profits to be much! but it'll be cool to have our Super Haters story available on a big venue like ComiXology :D so what do you think... are you down with this?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:28pm PST

hehehe you got it!

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:27pm PST

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:27pm PST

Cool let me know if anyone drops! I'm pretty much out of commission until after Nov 25

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:25pm PST

i can't wait to see your short. SOOO PSYYCHHEED!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:25pm PST

i don't know for a fact that everyone who agreed to do a pinup will follow through, so i might drop you a line if something changes!

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:25pm PST

Too much homework, I'm making an animated short this semester

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:24pm PST

i understand!!!

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:23pm PST

I want to, but I can't

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 8:23pm PST

Aw damn!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 7:45pm PST

okay so people were a little more interested than i expected and the only open spots are for the first issue, which would need to be in this weekened! haha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:23pm PST

yeah, for sure :D

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:44pm PST

Can I have sometime to figure out my schedule?

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:44pm PST

I can probably do one of the last two

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:20pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:20pm PST

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:04pm PST

It depends on the timing

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:04pm PST

But

Brandon WilliamsMonday, November 3, 2014 at 2:04pm PST

Holy F*ck yeah!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:10pm PST

Nick MarinoFriday, June 8, 2012 at 9:44am PDT

That's rough, man!!! I hope things start to get better ASAP. Thx for sharing YOUR story. And I know there's probably nothing I can do... but if it turns out that there is, pls lemme know.

Brandon WilliamsThursday, June 7, 2012 at 3:19pm PDT

Thanks man, I was going try messaging you via email or something after reading your comment so I'm really glad you messaged me. So Angela... Back in 2009 (we knew each other but not dating) she was diagnosed with Ulcertive Colitist (sp?) and had her colon removed and a j pouch put in place. When we were in here last time it was cuz she couldn't stop bleeding from um... "there" and eventually they found what looked like a blood vessel or something and it strangely fell off before operating. So now were back a week later cuz she's having abdominal pain and vomiting and we don't know tho I have some theories. We need to get to her specialist in Cleveland but she can't make the trip and he's going on vacation soon so it's going to be rough not to mention being stuck in this hospital. It's really tough being here like life is on hold or something , I stayed with her all day and night last time but this time around I've been going to work and just staying the evenings and nights in the hospital with her. I've been trying to get drawing done and stuff but it's hard here. I completely understand the frustration you must have gone through not have a diagnoses since that's where we're at right now. Feel trapped and there's nothing I can do. Ugh Well thank you for sharing your story and for the well wishes its really means a lot. XD (sorry if my typing and grammar are a little off... Long day plus still getting used to iPad-ing.)

Nick MarinoThursday, June 7, 2012 at 8:30am PDT

hey, i mentioned this in my latest comment on the podcast, but i just wanted to offer my support and say hang in there!!! i know it's tough when your GF is in the hospital - -Justique got pretty sick back in 2009 and we literally spent months living out of hospital rooms off-and-on for the next year. you mentioned Angela was having problems with bleeding... did they figure out what it is yet? Justique had a similar issue and eventually they ended up diagnosing it as Aplastic Anemia. obviously, whatever Angela is dealing with could be anything... but I thought I'd mention the Aplastic Anemia thing because it took them about a two weeks just to diagnose her and if we'd been able to pinpoint it earlier on, it would have saved her a lot of headaches and frustration. basically, it's a bone marrow condition where the symptoms are bleeding, bruising, and fatigue. anyway, pls give Angela my best. I HOPE SHE GETS BETTER SOON!!!!!!

Happy Luvfest Week!!! Wanted to make a final reminder about any donations you may have. Wayne the Wise at Phantom is happy to collect on Friday or feel free to bring with you to Luvfest. Remember, I owe you all a beer/wine (or other beverage of your choice) at Luvfest!!!! :)

Jami MarloweThursday, November 3, 2011 at 8:22am PDT

When I read over the names above, I'm in awe of how many talented people I've met, become acquainted with, and eventually befriended. Moreover, I'm humbled by your generosity in the past and even now. If you are still interested in donating, and thanks to those of you who already have, feel free to leave work with Wayne at Phantom or send it directly to me. I can even pay for shipping. Jami Luvfest is in a little over a week. I hope you all get a chance to stop by so that I may thank you in person. And by thank, I mean prostate myself at your feet in order to worship you as you deserve!!! (Or I can buy you a beer.) :)

Valerie ZimmerMonday, November 26, 2012 at 7:03am PST

Thanks Nick! I'll let him know. Good luck with your move!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 26, 2012 at 7:02am PST

Hi Val!! In I'm the process of moving to LA and my plate is too full to tackle something like this until the new year. But I have a ton of friends who are excellent comic book artists and I'm sure they'd be interested in the opportunity. Your friend can email me at nickmarino@gmail.com and I'll help him find the right artist :D

Valerie ZimmerMonday, November 26, 2012 at 6:40am PST

Hey Nick! I have an odd question for you. I have a friend who is a stand-up comic who is looking for an illustrator to design an original superhero graphic for him. You are the only person I know who may fit the bill. Is this something you would be interested in? Can I send him your contact info?

No need to apologize! It was really great hanging out. I sure am gonna miss the ol' girl.

Michael CuccaroSunday, May 27, 2012 at 12:56pm PDT

It was very nice hanging out with you guys! I'm sorry I disappeared there. I left to go ask if they had a light bulb for me to fix the men's room and then all the old staff, including people who'd moved to Philly but came back for the Farewell, kept snatching my attention and I forgot about the light bulb. I'm not normally so rude! Bittersweet Brunch.

Amanda ManolSaturday, May 26, 2012 at 5:02pm PDT

I'm pretty sure I'm coming!

Marcel Lamont WalkerSaturday, May 26, 2012 at 2:21pm PDT

Seth FronzoliSaturday, May 26, 2012 at 11:01am PDT

Not sure if I can make it! :(

Geofferi Von DoraFriday, May 25, 2012 at 5:23pm PDT

I'm chained to the stores, I won't be able to make it. :(

Dave WachterFriday, May 25, 2012 at 2:22pm PDT

I've put in a reservation for noon on Sunday.

Shawn AtkinsFriday, May 25, 2012 at 11:33am PDT

I dont I'll be able to make it.

Michael CuccaroFriday, May 25, 2012 at 11:16am PDT

Dave - can you count me as two people pls for noon.

Dave WachterFriday, May 25, 2012 at 11:06am PDT

Okay, I think brunch it is. I'll call in and let Mel know. How does Noon sound? Anyone else, please let me know one way or another.

Wayne WiseFriday, May 25, 2012 at 9:39am PDT

Brunch works better for me as well.

Dave WachterFriday, May 25, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

Brunch hours are 11-3, so sometime in there.

Amanda ManolFriday, May 25, 2012 at 9:26am PDT

What time would brunch be?

Marcel Lamont WalkerFriday, May 25, 2012 at 6:44am PDT

I say thee YAY!

Dave WachterFriday, May 25, 2012 at 6:41am PDT

People, you tell me: should we make it a brunch?? What works for you? Let me know!!

Michael CuccaroFriday, May 25, 2012 at 6:27am PDT

Dave, this is a table for dinner? I'm out, unfortunately but if you go to usual brunch, you will likely see me there.

Jessica HeberleFriday, May 25, 2012 at 5:45am PDT

Wish I could but this weekend is crazy :(

Dave WachterFriday, May 25, 2012 at 5:28am PDT

I've got a table reserved right now, but I will have to give them a number as soon as I can. So if you're interested, please let me know as soon as you can. Time is of the essence!

Wayno IllustrationThursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:56pm PDT

It's very thoughtful of you to organize this, Dave! Unfortunately, we'll be out of town until after Sunday. Have fun, and please convey my regards! Wayno

Marcel Lamont WalkerThursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:51pm PDT

Dave, I'm very interested. I'll check back with you on what time is good. Good for you for thinking of this!

Dave WachterThursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:49pm PDT

I figured we'd see what people's availability are and go from there. Dinner hours Sunday are 4-9.

Michael CuccaroThursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:06pm PDT

Dave, I can't Sunday night but will most probably be there for brunch. I also might swing by for a drink tonight or tomorrow night. It's probably going to be crazazee in there for the next four days.

Amanda ManolThursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:03pm PDT

I might like to! What time?

Dan GreenwaldThursday, May 24, 2012 at 1:31pm PDT

Terrific idea, unfortunately I'll be at a Memorial Day picnic.

Mikey WoodThursday, May 24, 2012 at 1:26pm PDT

Sadly, I'll be out if town.

Dave WachterThursday, May 24, 2012 at 1:21pm PDT

Friends of the Gypsy Cafe, As you may or may not have heard by now, The Gypsy Cafe is closing it's doors for good. Jim, Mel, and little Violetta are moving on to a bigger and brighter future. While a new restaurant will occupy the space, there will never be a replacement for the unique warmth, hospitality, and incredible food of the Gypsy. Their last night of service is this Sunday, May 27th. Wayne Wise and I were talking about getting a bunch of us together for one last dinner there, to send her off in style. So if you're available and interested, consider this your invitation. I'm not facebooked with everybody, so if you know somebody that should be on this list, please forward this message along. Please reply ASAP, as we will need to get reservations in very soon! Thanks! Dave

Awesome Jonny! I'll be there, bro.

Jonny AxxThursday, August 9, 2012 at 3:49pm PDT

Hey guys, I wanted to reach out to you guys and let you know I have having this book release party next Friday and wanted to make sure everyone gets the invite. I got some great talent and the cover is only $5 bucks. If you can’t make it it’s cool. Just wanted to include all my indy comic brethren.

Ian Levenstein, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoSunday, November 24, 2013 at 3:01pm PST

Yeah, I can totally relate to what you're saying. I was just curious!

Ian LevensteinSunday, November 24, 2013 at 11:39am PST

I never really saw a reason for it, to be honest, since we have the website and the individual feeds and everything like that. Although if you think it would benefit us to have a central feed, go for it. I just figured it'd be overkill for most people to get like four shows per day downloading.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 24, 2013 at 11:03am PST

I'm working on fixing an issue with my iTunes feed and in the process of doing some test searches I realized that the Comics Podcast Network isn't listed in iTunes! Do you know if there's any particular reason for that?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 7, 2013 at 2:43pm PST

sounds good! the CPN is a great community and i'd love to help out more. thx :D

Ian LevensteinThursday, November 7, 2013 at 2:41pm PST

I'll look into the Twitter thing now, thanks for the head's up. As for the load time, I hadn't noticed, but wouldn't be shocked if it's an issue with Godaddy. If it doesn't right itself in another day or two I'll look into it, sure thing. As for helping out with the day to day, that is something I am certainly happy to share, and we can talk more about that in the coming weeks for sure.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 7, 2013 at 2:38pm PST

just a couple of site / social media things! first thing is that the twitter plugin is bugging out again and not auto-posting the new episodes. i'm guessing you already know, but i wanted to run it by you just in case. second thing is that i'm getting some especially slow load times on the blog lately, both front end and back end. seems like it started this week, though i don't have an exact day for you. have you noticed this? (BTW if you ever need a hand with anything for the CPN i'm glad to help out. i've dealt with my own twitter issues and slow load times on the AudioShocker blog in the recent past, so i've got the situations kinda fresh on my brain.)

Ian LevensteinThursday, November 7, 2013 at 2:29pm PST

Sure, what's up?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 7, 2013 at 2:27pm PST

you're still maintaining the Comics Podcast Network, right? i have a few things i want to run by you but i wanna make sure you're still admin before i get into stuff!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:18pm PDT

yeah good idea 4847987753

Ian LevensteinWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:16pm PDT

Sweet. And again, if anything changes I'll let you know. Let me get your cell phone number so I can text if need be.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:16pm PDT

okay, that's great. i'll probably end up using my press pass so my co-host (Neal, you met him last year, I think) and my sister can get in at different times throughout the weekend :D

Ian LevensteinWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 4:03pm PDT

Jimmy got an extra exhibitor badge, so it looks like Kris is covered. But I'll let you know if that changes.

Ian LevensteinWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 3:16pm PDT

And thanks again, man!

Ian LevensteinWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 3:15pm PDT

We'll be needing to use yours, more than likely. Basically I'll go in, grab your Press Pass and then give it to her if that's cool with you. Or you can come meet me when we get to Javits in the morning. Either way. Cell phone number is 646-496-6848.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 10, 2012 at 3:08pm PDT

Yo! So I came by today and got mostly setup. I measured out exactly half of the table and hung my banners. We're at 3358. What's up with Kris and the Press Pass?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 11:55am PDT

Yeah, that makes sense to me. I think Two True freaks falls into that, where it's just non-comics every now and then.

Ian LevensteinTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 11:09am PDT

To me, as long as a podcast is mainly about comics an episode every now and then that isn't about comics is fine. But if it becomes regular, I will be happy to bring it up with the guys and let them know not to post those particular episodes.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 11:03am PDT

Yeah, that was the last I heard from him too. So the CPN thing... I kinda feel like a dick being the guy to bring this up, but there are a couple of podcasters who post some non-comics related stuff. Mainly Pop Media Savant (which, as far as I can tell, has nothing to do with comics) and some episodes posted by Two True Freaks are the two biggies that come to mind for me. I know posting an episode to the CPN is a great boost for listeners, but I feel like it essentially amounts to spam when these guys are posting episodes that aren't even slightly comics-related. What's your view on this?

Ian LevensteinTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

I am primary admin still, and last i heard from Jimmy was that he was working on getting us info on who to send money to and would get back to us as soon as NYCC does.

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 10:48am PDT

Are you still the primary admin for the Comics Podcast Network? Just curious because I have something I want to discuss and I wanna make sure i bring it up with the right person! Heard anything new from Jimmy? I talked to a few of my friends that I thought might be interested in exhibiting at NYCC, but everyone keeps saying that they don't have the money or can't make the trip to NYC on such short notice.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 23, 2012 at 11:00am PDT

exxxxxxxxxxxxxxcellent

Ian LevensteinThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:59am PDT

Awesome. I'll loop you in on the convo.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:57am PDT

Just me. nickmarino@gmail.com

Ian LevensteinThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:50am PDT

And how many people will you be this year? Just yourself or your partner as well?

Ian LevensteinThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:49am PDT

I'd be down, what's your e-mail address?

Ian LevensteinThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:47am PDT

lol

Nick MarinoThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:47am PDT

Hahaha how many times did I say "this year" in that message? Ridiculous.

Nick MarinoThursday, August 23, 2012 at 10:46am PDT

I'd love to split a table with you this year rather than going with a solo table again. I already got an email from Jimmy offering the AudioShocker a table for this year. And I emailed him back, mentioning that I'd be interested in possibly splitting with another one of the podcasts this year. Honestly, he seemed a little hesitant about me splitting this year, but I know you've got more experience with the Podcast Arena than I do and if you think he'll be down with us sharing a table, I'd much rather do that than go solo.

Nick Marino, Rebecca Cohen
Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 7:22pm PDT

Sounds cool. I'll try to make it! At this point, it all depends on when they schedule my signings. I'll probably know within the day or so.

Rebecca CohenThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:42pm PDT

You should join.

Rebecca CohenThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:41pm PDT

I'll be there Friday through Sunday

Nick MarinoThursday, June 25, 2015 at 3:20pm PDT

Rebecca CohenFriday, May 30, 2014 at 9:57am PDT

I did - he posted it to my FB page.

Rebecca CohenTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 1:01pm PST

Let's just be done.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 11:18am PST

tis! so it's up to you what you'd like to do -- we can do one more ATCRP episode together or just be done. thoughts?

Rebecca CohenTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 10:24am PST

Well I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm happy for you because it's what you want to do?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 10:19am PST

hahahaha yes

Rebecca CohenTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 9:14am PST

Just like that?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 25, 2014 at 8:29am PST

soooooooooooo... i've had my fill of podcasting. we're retiring the audioshocker in early april.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 24, 2013 at 3:54pm PST

i lied. dec 31st.

Nick MarinoSunday, December 22, 2013 at 6:11pm PST

Rebecca CohenSunday, December 22, 2013 at 12:46pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, December 22, 2013 at 10:41am PST

our episode will air on thurs Jan 2nd.

Nick MarinoFriday, December 20, 2013 at 8:26am PST

hehehehe

Rebecca CohenFriday, December 20, 2013 at 5:34am PST

Nevermind that was a stupid question. Sorry, I was drunk.

Rebecca CohenThursday, December 19, 2013 at 10:07pm PST

Wait are we doing 1pm eastern time or Pacific time?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 19, 2013 at 3:44pm PST

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

Rebecca CohenThursday, December 19, 2013 at 1:11pm PST

sounds great

Nick MarinoThursday, December 19, 2013 at 10:11am PST

Idea 1, Myth of Eustro. I'll take less than a half-hour to read the two chapters. Tomorrow at 1 pm est still good for you?

Rebecca CohenThursday, December 19, 2013 at 10:09am PST

We better pick something so I can read it. What's the shortest?

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 14, 2013 at 12:35pm PST

IDEA 1: Myth of Eustro by Solomon Mars I'm a HUGE fan of Solomon's work. He's a brilliant cartoonist who makes comics that you read panel-to-panel. He posts them as Flash on deviantART. Each installment is a breezy but action-packed 10ish minute read. Some of his series are years along, but Myth of Eustro is his newest. It's also different because it's interactive -- you can click on certain highlighted items in the story to get more information about the world of the story. #1: http://solomonmars.deviantart.com/art/Myth-of-Eustro-Chapter-01-401533679 #2: http://solomonmars.deviantart.com/art/Myth-of-Eustro-Chapter-02-413206585 --------- IDEA #2: Chloe Noonan: Monster Hunter The AudioShocker has access to a ton of free digital indie comics through Comixology's Submit review program. One of them that stood out to me in the past was this tale. If you decide you'd like to talk about this, I can hook you up with the login info. http://www.comixology.com/Chloe-Noonan-Monster-Hunter-Digital-Omnibus/digital-comic/38526 --------- IDEA #3: The Garfield thing from last time.

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 11, 2013 at 7:16am PST

sounds good

Rebecca CohenTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 11:37pm PST

I finished Spindrift. I'll look at Superbitch tomorrow and see how much of it I have time to read, and if it's enough we can discuss it too.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 4:58pm PST

I'm fine with either one or two. Whatever you prefer. I finished Spindrift.

Rebecca CohenTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 3:46pm PST

We can just do one if you prefer! For some reason I thought you wanted to do two.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 1:46pm PST

OOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo two! I'm down. I can easily read all of Spindrift (85 pages, I think). And I'll try to read all of Superbitch. I'm not sure how many strips are up (maybe 100?) but they go pretty quick and it's fun.

Rebecca CohenTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 1:42pm PST

ok let's do the first 2

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 1:42pm PST

OKAY! I looked at them again. Here are my favs in order from most to least. 1. Spindrift. Damn, I read the first five pages and I'm hooked. 2. Superbitch. It's funny!!! I really dig it. 3. Boston Metaphysical Society. I love the idea but the pages I read just didn't do it for me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 1:19pm PST

if we go with long form, i feel like it wouldn't be worth it to read the whole thing... just sample some of it. i'll take another look at your choices and let you know my favorite!

Rebecca CohenTuesday, December 10, 2013 at 1:17pm PST

Okay, do we want to do something long form or short form/gag-a-day? Are we interested in serious adventure/horror/sci-fi/etc., or just comedy? Right now I'm inclined to vote for comedy, but maybe we should have a variety. I vote for Spindrift, Boston Metaphysical Society, and/or Superbitch. Or whatever you like.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 9, 2013 at 11:28pm PST

Have you looked at the list yet? I can't say I have a favorite right now.

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 2:19pm PST

wed 11am it is

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 2:17pm PST

WEDS AT 11 AM!!! In her defense she's from the Netherlands and lives in Germany, so I'm guessing English isn't her first language. Still...

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:57pm PST

Failure to understand basic instructions is an automatic disqualifier. If we do Tuesday I'm available in the evening, like 8:00. Wednesday during the day could work. 11AM is fine.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:38pm PST

i'm very busy

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:38pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:37pm PST

jeez. cheaters. i already got somebody sending me a message about their webcomic with paragraphs of description. I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR PARAGRAPHS!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:30pm PST

PST

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:03pm PST

wait what time zone are you in?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 12:22pm PST

i'm good all day Sat-Sun (7th-8th), Tues (10th) after 4 PM, and Weds (11th) after 11 AM. i sat here for a couple of mins trying to think of a preferred time, but honestly i don't have one! so anything within those days/times works great for me.

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 12:07pm PST

let me know what time works for you

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 12:07pm PST

oh, ok

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 12:06pm PST

The episode comes out on the morning of the 12th, so we'd need to record no later than the night of the 11th.

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 11:22am PST

I'm free all day on the 12th. 1:30 my time would be my first choice.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 11:21am PST

oh, and when are good times for you to record?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 11:21am PST

k, i'll post on webcomics creators about it in a little bit.

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 10:42am PST

Let's do #1 then what the hell.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 10:32am PST

I prefer #1 because it's more interactive. I think we could easily discuss another cartoonist's work in that context without being negative about it, especially if we focus on things like themes and storytelling and other broad stuff along those lines. But I also love the idea of #3!!! So I'm totally open to either of them.

Rebecca CohenMonday, December 2, 2013 at 9:54am PST

I didn't watch Strip Search, so maybe idea #2 is out. I like the idea of the Webcomic Creators group competition A LOT, although I wonder how comfortable I'd feel criticizing someone's comic if I sort of "know" them through social media. I think if I did that one, my review would focus (entirely?) on the positive. The Garfield thing is very up my alley; I was a big Garfield fan as a kid. Hmmm, choosing between ideas 1 and 3... Do you have a preference?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 30, 2013 at 11:41am PST

IDEA #1: We could post in the Webcomics Creators group here on FB and tell people that we're going to review one of their webcomics on an upcoming podcast. But here's the catch -- they have to pitch us on WHY we should review it. Then we get to pick our favorite pitch. And they won't know the winner until we release the episode. I dig this idea because it creates a fun little competition, gives a fellow cartoonist some exposure, and potentially increases our audience for this podcast episode. ----- IDEA #2: Did you watch the Strip Search cartoonist competition webseries? Two of the final three cartoonists (Abby Howard and Katie Rice) just launched their post-show webcomics within the past month. I thought it might be interesting to read their comics and discuss their new stories. But if you didn't watch Strip Search then this probably isn't the best topic. ----- IDEA #3: Garfield then and now. Almost all of Garfield is posted on the Go Comics site, so we could read a selection of comics from 1983 and a selection from 2013 and discuss how the comic strip changed (or didn't change) over the course of 30 years.

Rebecca CohenSaturday, November 23, 2013 at 11:49am PST

Thanks, I appreciate that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 23, 2013 at 11:22am PST

okay cool i'll come up with some suggestions for you soon.

Rebecca CohenSaturday, November 23, 2013 at 10:41am PST

I'm not really reading anything. You have to give me some ideas to choose to from.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 23, 2013 at 10:23am PST

you're the guest, so i'm open to anything you'd like to discuss!

Rebecca CohenSaturday, November 23, 2013 at 9:33am PST

Sure, I'd love to do it. What should we review?

Nick MarinoThursday, November 14, 2013 at 2:19pm PST

that is... very indefinite of you. hahaha so is that a yes, no, or maybe?

Rebecca CohenThursday, November 14, 2013 at 2:03pm PST

Sounds intriguing.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 14, 2013 at 1:57pm PST

WAIT... scratch that date. It would be the December 12th episode!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 14, 2013 at 12:53pm PST

Hey so one of our shows on the AudioShocker is called the Allegheny Teen Center Reading Program (weird name, I know) and it's basically a literary review podcast that analyzes stuff which doesn't normally get the literary review treatment. http://www.audioshocker.com/podcasts/atcrp It's not always really in depth (like today's episode, for example), but we've had some really thoughtful discussions about comic books, manga, and webcomics this year and I want to keep that ball rolling. However, my co-host needs to take a break from the podcast for a bit. So I was wondering if you'd like to join me to do an analysis of something you're really into, be it a webcomic or a comic strip or some other sequential story. For the past couple of months, we've spent two weeks reviewing a volume of the Battle Angel Alita manga and then one week discussing something different before we move onto the next volume of Alita. Our next "something different" episode is scheduled to post on December 5th and that's the one I'd like you to join me on if you're interested. Whatcha think?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 10:33pm PST

thumbs up!

Rebecca CohenFriday, November 8, 2013 at 10:16pm PST

Sure. I'll put something together.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 8:00pm PST

wanna run a Gyno-Star banner on the AudioShocker? we have these weird little banner ads that run between the comments. if you're interested, the image dimensions are 468x68.

Rebecca CohenTuesday, July 16, 2013 at 6:31pm PDT

lol NEVER

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 16, 2013 at 1:56pm PDT

OMG you should post an album of your photo ref pics!!!!

Rebecca CohenTuesday, July 16, 2013 at 1:08pm PDT

And thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Rebecca CohenTuesday, July 16, 2013 at 1:08pm PDT

I always use myself as photo reference. My phone is full of ridiculously goofy self portraits. And yes I do intend to put the notebook image on a tee, per your suhgestion. The drawing bleeds off the edge of the canvas and it looks weird on a t-shirt (the top of her head is cut off). So I need to change the image a little. Just haven't gotten around to doing it yet.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 16, 2013 at 10:11am PDT

do you use yourself as photoref for some of your gyno-star art? i was just looking at some of your drawings and that got me wondering. also, i'm so serious about wanting the gyno-star notebook design (ya know, where she's punching) on a t-shirt. i would buy it in a second!!! even if you just made available for one day so i could buy it. PLEEEEEEASEEEEE! it's such an amazing pic of the character!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 21, 2012 at 11:48am PDT

I stopped getting Gyno-Star email updates back on March 5th. Any reason you can think of why that would have happened? I couldn't find any in my spam folder, and I sure as hell didn't unsubscribe!!!

But our Tumblr is on point!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 14, 2014 at 9:22pm PST

Oh the Action Lab site is painfully un-updated. It's awful.

Damon GentryFriday, November 14, 2014 at 8:09pm PST

Hey I was gonna post about Aaron's Holy F*ck cover but I can't find a sales page for your comic to link to. I don't see it on the Action Labs site.

Damon GentrySunday, November 2, 2014 at 1:39pm PST

I sure do love getting fucked by corporations founded in mobster ethics!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 31, 2014 at 4:00pm PDT

well the upside is now you can pitch a Trauma miniseries to Marvel. 40 years from now if you're lucky Trauma will show up in Avengers 27 and they'll cut you a $9.32 royalty check.

Damon GentryFriday, October 31, 2014 at 1:47pm PDT

I remembered seeing that shitty cover when it came out. I just read it to bathe in its depressingly horrible splendor!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 31, 2014 at 1:35pm PDT

hahaha i thought you might appreciate Trauma. i thought his 1st appearance would make for good padding.

Damon GentryFriday, October 31, 2014 at 1:31pm PDT

Thanks so much for the comic man, it look great! And thank you also for the godawful Hulk comic, the proclamations on the cover of " Are you ready to give up yet?" and "Introducing: TRAUMA" are serendipitously apt.

Damon GentryFriday, October 24, 2014 at 9:26am PDT

Thanks dude, you rock!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 23, 2014 at 7:25pm PDT

your comic is on its way. mailed it out today.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 23, 2011 at 7:19pm PDT

http://www.nickmarino.net/music/groundscore.zip yo here are all the groundscore songs -- the original versions and the "remastered" ones (which aren't really remastered so much as just leveled out a bit and sometimes snipped at the front or back). it's about 45 mb.

Well, the party is Nov 11. I've made arrangements with Wayne to collect at Phantom if that's easy for you. Otherwise, drop it off early at the party if you must (of course I will expwct you to stay!)

Shawn AtkinsFriday, October 21, 2011 at 5:20pm PDT

when do you need the art

Jami MarloweThursday, October 20, 2011 at 8:45am PDT

Hello and Happy Thursday to all! I've reached out individually to all of you about donating a print or piece of art to Jami Luvfest for raffling. I just wanted to reach out to you as a brief reminder that Luvfest is on Friday, November 11. If I've not reached out to you or if you know someone else who may be interested in donating art, please let me know! Finally, if you are wondering how to get the art to me, please feel free to message me or call my cell at 412-608-6260. Thanks for being talented and being a support of Luvfest and the Food Bank!

THANK YOU!!!

JB SapienzaWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 3:02pm PDT

I'm glad you could make that work. Dana and I broke up a bunch of times before we finallyfigured out how to make it work. Relationships are harder than making comics. Well if you ever need an ear to bend I'm here on the ither side of the screen.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:27pm PDT

It was TOUGH because I wasn't into the idea at first but time heals and mostly I just want her to be happy. Means a lot to me that you asked how I'm doing.

JB SapienzaWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:15pm PDT

Oh. Well that is a horse of a different color! Sounds like things are working out prettying good out of what could have been a shitty situation.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:11pm PDT

Or, heaven forbid, see someone else! hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:11pm PDT

It happened a while back, actually. I wasn't gonna post anything at all but so many people I know think of Stique and I as a couple and I didn't want them to be confused or concerned if they don't see her in my feed anymore.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:10pm PDT

I AM!!! Thanks so much for asking.

JB SapienzaWednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:09pm PDT

Sorry to hear about you Justique. That sucks man. You doing OK?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:04pm PDT

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

sweet. I will have to pick me up some o' that moonshine.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

yyayy HFD TPB is in the store or at your local butcher shop right now

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:45am PDT

in the game. Haha.

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:44am PDT

That's awesome man. Can't wait to chexk them out! Speaking of... I need to pick me up a copy of Holy Fucked. The TPB is out?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:08pm PDT

got some pretty crazy projects coming up over the next couple of years, looking forward to sharing them with everyone

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:07pm PDT

doing alright, just focusing on having as much fun as possible making comics

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:07pm PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:07pm PDT

in *tha game

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:07pm PDT

bummer about the health. but it i'm glad you're still in game!!! sounds like things are improving (albeit slowly) and i hope they continue to get better and better.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 10:05pm PDT

yeah, it's amazing how old projects can be revived and bear fruit! sometimes they make for the best stuff because they've had time to gestate and get refined.

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 7:48pm PDT

how are you doing? you seem to be getting into the west coast swing pretty well?

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 7:48pm PDT

still at home. mobile but it is painful and physically draining to do more than my physical therepy, walk the dog and do some house chores. I'll lost my job, but they are payin me and insuring me through april. then i go on unemployment and hopefuly can just focus on getting healthy again. still trying to figure out "why" but all my gut stuff that put me in the hospital is much much better!

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 7:46pm PDT

never give up. never surrender! (as far as old failed projects)

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 7:37pm PDT

How's health stuff going? Last time we talked about it, you we're still mostly at home, not a lot of mobility if I remember right. Feeling any better?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 7:36pm PDT

Sounds kickass! I think it's great that you're dusting them off and gettin' back to it.

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:22pm PDT

(they still make me laugh. so I figured why not?)

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:21pm PDT

sketching stuff out! 20 years ago i started working on a cartoon show (I was 16. what did I know) I wrote and wrote and wrote for about 10 years and then life got in the way. from time to time I would do warm up sketches w/ these characters in a comic strip style. and I recently found a pile of them. Going to draw them for real and write a bunch of new ones. My plan is that by this time next year I will have enough done to print a collection.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:19pm PDT

Niiiiiiice! Are you already working on the new book?

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:08pm PDT

but I am out of touch. I hope that at this point next year I'll actually have my own non-jonah book out. so maybe I'll be more in the know

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:07pm PDT

I doubt there will be anyting extra sweet happening.

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:07pm PDT

kick ass man

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 6:00pm PDT

For sure!!! I'll probably be in Maine but if there's something sweet going on, I can head into Boston.

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:22pm PDT

Nothing planned. Let me know if you are gonna be in or near Boston though.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:12pm PDT

i mean, other than the new Jonah issue

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:11pm PDT

just figured i'd ask in case you had a sweet event going on

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:11pm PDT

hahaha nice

JB SapienzaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:42am PDT

Oh sweet. Not that i know of aside from the normal "the 10 comic shops in Boston all have free comics"

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:31am PDT

Anything cool going on in your neck of the woods for Free Comic Book Day? I'm gonna be in New England that weekend!

JB SapienzaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 5:18pm PST

Cool!

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 5:06pm PST

my bud was making a song for a co-worker, but he's not really a drummer or bassist so i laid down some rhythm section for him to record guitar and vox over. i'll probably remix / add to the drums and bass i recorded for him.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 5:05pm PST

sounds sweet!!!

JB SapienzaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

what were you recording?

JB SapienzaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

An MC fellow i know just told me he wanted 4 of my tracks (including my logan remix track) so we're gonna try and do an EP this year. That's all though for the most part. 2016 i thinkbis going to ficus on drawing and filmmaking.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:34am PST

cool!!! what other tunes are you working on

JB SapienzaSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 8:09pm PST

It is still on but I only got three of the sux tracks turned in. Wverybody keeps telling me they'll get it to me "soon". I think now that the holidaze are over they may finish them up. i was planning on sending out an e-mail this week abaout it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:06pm PST

i was recording a song with my buddy today and thought about the EP you're organizing. is it still on? if not, no worries! i'm just curious.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:05pm PST

holidays were good, didn't do too much which was nice

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:05pm PST

i bet that Batman book is full of some crazy weird comics

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:04pm PST

holy shit, that's a tasty stack!

JB SapienzaSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 4:28pm PST

Also happy bew year!

JB SapienzaSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 4:27pm PST

JB SapienzaSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 4:27pm PST

Hectic. Cool. Fun. I got a ton of new funny books to read. Hd some laughs . Saw sone star wars. Etc.

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 4:23pm PST

YO! How were the holidaze?

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:39am PDT

Word up

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 11:16am PDT

yeah i'll let ya know what i think!

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

also feel free to tell me if this remix is better or worse.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

and then I can call you a band member in Futuristic Wrist Watch.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

this honestly might not be worth it. I just like trying new stuff.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:59am PDT

I do leave it up to you. I figured this would be a fun experiment and it may or may not work. Whatever bass line(s) you want to try. even if it is just trying to miror what is already there.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:57am PDT

I think so

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:51am PDT

and you did mean punky? like, a rock style bass?

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

you can feel free to fully produce a bass line. or just give me a few options and I will pick and choose.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

awesome

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

cool you want in?

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

I changed the intro, so you'rs would not match up. it is based off that same mp3. so we are getting grittier in sound.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

i'll give it a shot!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

ohhhh a new mix k nevermind

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

best quaity!

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

yeah

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:49am PDT

ell I have the new remix now

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

that the best quality you have?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

it's 128 kbps

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

i still have the mp3

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

if I send you the mp3 would you be interested in adding a kind of punky bottom end to it? There is already a bass line, but it gets lost in the mix.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

because of your response and a few other people I am salvaging that track from the lost ep and putting it on the real one.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:40am PDT

haha perfect

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

I did slight rmix of it. I lost the session, so this all massageging the mp3... but I want more of a bottom on it

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

i think you're gonna love it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

it's got a kind of prog rock meets kids bop feel.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

sweet!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

luckily, i anticipated that years ago and already recorded one.

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

yep

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:39am PDT

haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:38am PDT

yep. and you want me to do a wicked 5 min bass solo in the middle, right?

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

do you remeber that "The Remedy " song i sent you a couple years ago?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

yaz, i doo

JB SapienzaTuesday, October 27, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

you play bass guitar right?

JB SapienzaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

no worries

JB SapienzaWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 11:43am PDT

yep

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 9, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

fuuuuuuuuuuuccccccck i forgot to send you the pics! will do today

JB SapienzaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:50am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

OH SHIT YEAHHHHHHH!!!! That would rule! THANKS!

JB SapienzaWednesday, August 26, 2015 at 10:04am PDT

I will gladly put those holy fuck and holy fucked cover homages up on rejected. If you could just send me all and tell me what issue they are covering

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:58am PDT

hahahaha!

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

Dad hood iis pretty awesome. and boring at the same time.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:56am PDT

yeah. I hope I get it too. I know they really prefer to promote from within the institution, and I currently work for the a/v dept. we helped design the studio. I dunno. I think it's a good fit.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

and thanks! we enjoy collaborating. this next one is different but the same insanity.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

how's dad stuff?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:53am PDT

i mean, i dunno who's interviewed for it but you seem like a natural fit since you know all of that stuff and you're already working there.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:52am PDT

WHOA i hope you get that job!!!!

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

also. You guys are a great team. Can't wait to see what else you come up with

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:48am PDT

I'd be weird Al in UHF.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

I'm up for a pretty big promotion at my job at the boston children's hospital. They built a TV studio and need somebody to run it and create content and work with the kids.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:47am PDT

nothing really jonah related.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

what about you... anything new Jonah stuff happening?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:37am PDT

something else. we're open to a third F*ck. but we'd like to see the sales numbers for Holy F*cked #1 before we really commit to another volume.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

sweet. Another Holy Fuck sequel? or something else entirely?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:34am PDT

not bad. it's just a matter of marketing and sales now. the book's been in the can for months. daniel and i are already onto the next thing.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:29am PDT

how's theholy fucking business treating you these days?

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:27am PDT

yeah i'm sure it'll be great!

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:23am PDT

I've hung out with people at Tables at cons. but I've never tabled before. I'm sure it'll be mind numbing. but possibly fun.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:22am PDT

yeah, why not? prints are pretty cheap, if i remember correctly.

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:20am PDT

yeah MNiJ/soc talk (phil & Jon's podcast are splitting a table) and I figured "fork it. Let me see if I can sell any of my artwork."

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:17am PDT

thanks for asking :D for the Boston Con?

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

thanks

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:16am PDT

woooord up

Nick MarinoMonday, July 27, 2015 at 9:04am PDT

yeah, GO FOR IT!

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

*sell

JB SapienzaMonday, July 27, 2015 at 5:29am PDT

am I allowed to ell prints of my Holy Fuck pinup?

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:32pm PDT

you sir, are preaching to the choir.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

seems to me like the kind of streaming doc that would get a great viral buzz

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 12:02pm PDT

i can't understand why a distributor WOULDN'T want it

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

the log line has been "this'll kill on VOD" meanwhile they all have VOD arms. I have no idea man.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:59am PDT

the handful of distributors who have looked at just haven't liked it. Well, they say they like it, but they aren't picking it up.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

I'd like to think so.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

i think a lot of people would connect with it and dig it

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:58am PDT

VOD and streaming would be perfect for it

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

I want to get it on VOD, but I'd be really happy to just dump it online. It was never supposed to make us rich!

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:57am PDT

honestly, it's a huge lesson learned.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

yeah, exactly.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

exactly.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

just annoying

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

whatever I don't mean to complain. it's not that bad.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

annoying

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

ughhhhhhhhhh

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

plus you have to license it for theatrical and dvd and streaming and overseas and blah blah blah

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:56am PDT

TheDoors are one of the few bands in the world (at the level they are at) who don't use this one licensing company (forget it's name) they control their own licence.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

but you'd still have to pay something which is worse than nothing.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:55am PDT

it's like... i guess you could license those two doors songs. i can't imagine it would cost that much.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

that's all really interesting stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:54am PDT

YES! top secret and my lips are sealed!

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:45am PDT

this is all top secret btw.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

the whole point was to make a movie on no budget so we can get our future projects funded.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:43am PDT

I dunno man. It's a bummer. We gave ourselves a deadline and if we haven't worked it out by then we're just gonna dump it online for free.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

do we re-cut the film? nope. Not if I have anything to say about it.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:42am PDT

so we need to form an LLC so that if/when we do get sued they can't take our personal money. It's shitty.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:41am PDT

the first time we meet Jonah eh is blasting it in the background. But due to the way we mic'd it, it's just sort of audible. The Doors might not have a problem with that, except for when Jim (his brother) play along to a Doors song at the end of the movie on his keyboard. We just aren't sure if they will come after us for it. They probably won't, but we don't want to bring it to their attention either.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:40am PDT

oh shit! i don't remember when those songs popped up exactly... didn't somebody play them, but like weird versions of them?

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:38am PDT

I think there might be a legal question as the Doors music plays in the background a few times. We aren't really sure what to do about that.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

that's always nice to hear.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

thanks btw.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:37am PDT

we are looking at this company called VHX, who specialize in getting filmmaker's filsm "out there" in a way where most of the money comes back to us. We'd use them to get on netflix, and vimeo and whatever else.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:36am PDT

so weird. it's a fucking incredible film. so what happens next? how do you lineup VOD and shit like that?

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

sorry

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:35am PDT

so my internet crashed

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:26am PDT

It's one of the problems with having 3 people in charge. :(

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

I'm not really sure what's up. My job was to get us through post-production and I did that.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:25am PDT

we kind of knew that might happen, and have always planned to self distribute. So that's what we'll do.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:24am PDT

Nobody wants it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:23am PDT

are you still shopping for a distributor?

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

Jeeeeeez I wish "Jonah" was done and out in the world for people to just enjoy.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:21am PDT

yeah I hear that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:20am PDT

ya know, it's been done for so long now that i've mentally moved on and i'm more into the stuff i'm working on now rather than looking back at Holy F*ck. but i'm so glad it's out there for people to read and enjoy!

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

you should be super proud man. And it's like out in actual comic book stores and the such. Pretty badass.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

thanks so much for your feedback about the book. i so stoked that you enjoyed it.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

hahahaha yeah

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

keep 'em guessing

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:14am PDT

even better man

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

but yeah the sequel is waaaay different. still the same sense of humor, though.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

she's only in her torn outfit for a few pages, mainly the intro of the story which is meant to be a totally bait and switch.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:13am PDT

cool!!! yeah, i dunno why everyone did slutty maria with their pinups.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:12am PDT

I was surprised at how non-slutty Maria was. I think all of the pin ups had her so half dressed I just assumed she'd be a huge slut. But from a comedic standpoint it makes way more sense to have her be the grounded one. I loved it.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:11am PDT

yeah it was really fun. It's a great comic, I could also easily see it adapted into a fake saturday morning cartoon. or even just a movie. I also really want to read more with them. And surprise surpsie there is a sequal!

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:08am PDT

AWESOME!!!!!!!

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:06am PDT

I was not expecting that.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

I don't think I have ever laughed harder at a comic book than when I saw Satan And Jesus love-kiss each other at the end of issue 1.

JB SapienzaWednesday, July 1, 2015 at 10:05am PDT

I laughed my ass off.

JB SapienzaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 10:15am PDT

Nice

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:41am PDT

JB SapienzaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:35am PDT

I also cannot wait to find out what I think of it. haha.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

I can't wait to find out what you think.

Nick MarinoThursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:33am PDT

WHOA! I'm honored that you picked up the TPB too!!! Thanks :D

JB SapienzaThursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

even though I bought Holy Fuck on comixology I have not read it yet! I have a feeling I want my first experience with it to be in book form. SO I just bought the TPB. Can not wait! (any longer, because I sure did wait a long time at this point.)

JB SapienzaSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:56am PST

it's apt.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:51am PST

yeah that was our nickname of choice back in the day

JB SapienzaSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:20am PST

awesome. I'm really glad it stuck with you guys. Hahah. Crotchester... haha. I hadn't heard it reffered to as that, but it makes sense.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

haha

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

as for crotchester, welllll...

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

yeah the doc really got conversation going which was great!!!! we were both so glad we saw it.

JB SapienzaSunday, January 18, 2015 at 9:45am PST

Also, glad to hear you and your wife talked for a few days afterwads, you may have already told me that, but it's nice to see it in the review. THAT was the raction we were going for.

JB SapienzaSunday, January 18, 2015 at 9:45am PST

I'm not sure I knew you were had lived in Rochester.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 18, 2015 at 9:10am PST

glad to write it :D

JB SapienzaSunday, January 18, 2015 at 8:43am PST

Just saw your review of MNiJ on IMDb. Thanks so much man! That was really nice to read.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 5, 2015 at 8:36am PST

(y)

JB SapienzaMonday, January 5, 2015 at 8:22am PST

Rock on

Nick MarinoMonday, January 5, 2015 at 7:59am PST

i don't remember you asking! i'm glad to do it.

JB SapienzaMonday, January 5, 2015 at 6:42am PST

Thanks!

JB SapienzaMonday, January 5, 2015 at 6:42am PST

did I ask you to go to IMDB and give MNiJ an honest rating? if I did not, I am asking you to do snow if you feel like it. That is all.

JB SapienzaTuesday, December 23, 2014 at 5:59am PST

no worries. I'll get it up today but I may not be able to ahve it up for 10am. Thanks man!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 22, 2014 at 7:24pm PST

JB SapienzaMonday, December 22, 2014 at 9:26am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 20, 2014 at 2:00pm PST

well i'm about to draw that Iron Man #36 cover with Ramrod right now and you can use that to "fill your hole" anytime you want. ;) but like we talked about a month or two back, i'm gonna redraw the Holy F*ck #1 cover in the shittiest way possible, and if it's cool with you i'd love to run it the week the issue comes out! is that okay?

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:56pm PST

yeah man, get me a cover and I'll put it up on that date. do you want it there for the extra promo push, or if I can use you to fill a hole can i just throw it up?

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:55pm PST

but not stretch nuts!

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:55pm PST

ramrod is nuts

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:55pm PST

oh haha. sorry. My brain is fuzzy from the hsarpie marker inhaling.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:54pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:53pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:47pm PST

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:46pm PST

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:46pm PST

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:12pm PST

I had a few minutes at work today, and I need a new rejected by for next week to keep the streak going.

JB SapienzaThursday, November 20, 2014 at 1:11pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:22pm PST

Awesoe. I'm totally in.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 1:00pm PST

there's no set date yet until i hear back from more peeps and put a schedule together. you're one of the first people i've asked (and only second one to say yes), so we can try to pick a deadline that'll be right for you.

JB SapienzaMonday, November 3, 2014 at 12:56pm PST

as long as you don't need it tomorrow.

JB SapienzaMonday, November 3, 2014 at 12:56pm PST

I would love to! when would you need it by? I'm having a lot of trouble keeping myself motivated these days. Working pretty much full time now. but yes. thanks for asking and yes!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 12:50pm PST

any interest in doing a pinup for Holy F*ck?

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 30, 2014 at 2:56pm PDT

Actually I think everybody else was exactly who they were on camera. Ferg got stoned before the interview! No worries on the non review. I assumed as much. Dude just tell everybody you saw it and liked it. Go on imdb and give us an honest rating. All that would be a huge help. I appreciate the enthusiasm dude. Are you our friend on facebook? Sharing out stuff. Tweeting etc. All that would be great. If we get people excited about it we have a better chance of getting picked up and aking a dvd etc etc. ThTthanks a ill man.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 30, 2014 at 11:08am PDT

FUUUCK! Mr. Chips is dead? That sucks!!! I really hope you guys do a DVD release because I'll buy it for sure. Definitely wanna show the movie to a few people and I'd also love to see some of the unedited interviews. I'm not really one for writing reviews. I wrote comic books reviews looooong ago but pretty much stopped when we launched the AudioShocker back in 2007. I think my enthusiasm for the movie would be better served by helping you guys promote it (tweets, fb posts, etc) if there's a time when you need some assistance getting the word out there about a showing or something else. Who was the one person (other than Jimmy, I guess) that was totally different on camera than off camera?

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 30, 2014 at 6:20am PDT

Yeah man. That is Collins to a "T". He is an odd duck, though most of my good friends are. And I suppose me too. (also he moved out to LA like 8 or 9 years ago. So we only see each other once a year now. So he could be even weirder. for all I know) I think one of the things we have learned from watching the movie with a few audiences is different parts make different people laugh. Which was really interesting when we saw it with a sold out crowd because there were parts that everybody laughed at, and then you'd hear a group of people laugh at one thing, then a scattering of laughter at another and then everybody, and so on. Jimmy was the nicest guy to us. But as soon as the interview started he just became this fucking monster. the devil stuff is one of the first things he actually said. And I remember sitting back thinking "well, no way can we lead with this". He was a gift though. they all were. hell yeah. Mr. Chips is the man. So much great Mr.Chips stuff was left out, because ultimately he didn't cross over with Jonah's life all that much. We'll include it on the DVD (if one ever comes out). I don't know if the credits played long enough for you to notice, but the movie is dedicated to a couple of people and Mr. Chips is one of them. He tragically got murdered about a year ago. He was out walking his dog in his neighborhood, which wasn't a good one, and he got shot in the head by a random drive by. Jonah of course believes that it was part of a conspiracy. It's too bad, because he really was super nice AND he was not a monster in front of the camera. Just weird. Oh well. I could obviously talk at you for days. I will try not to! Thanks again for going to see it. Oh I showed Phil, and Jon what you wrote to me. They are also glad you dug it. Phil said "Hey, if he wants to write a review he should. but don't push him!" s I'm not pushing you. I don't often/ever see you write reviews that I can think of. but I'm just throwing the idea out there. (just keep it non-spoilery if you want to) thanks man!

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 30, 2014 at 2:49am PDT

Hahaha I never would've been able to tell you and Brian were best buds! He was so low key about it and didn't really tell me anything like that. And he after he asked me how I knew you, he practically tried to walk away before I could finish giving him an answer. It was an odd interaction. As for the reaction, I'm kinda weird in that I like to sit waaaaay up front so I didn't see much of their reaction. And I wasn't really paying attention to when the crowd laughed, so I don't remember that either. Sorry! I do know they laughed at least a few times, though, and I remember them laughing at stuff that was different from what I laughed at. I think the way you let these people become their own characters in their own story worked really well. It definitely was clear that this film wasn't making fun of anyone, but at the same time I felt like it wasn't stopping anyone from making fun of themselves. Jimmy, for example, who Justique and I talked about lot afterwards, (especially with his 18 / 666 thing) was so fucking insane. (And my favorite part was when Jimmy played the keyboards... he was terrible!!!!) Mr. Chips was by far the most interesting person to me in the film. Justique and I would totally watch a Mr. Chips documentary. He was so creepy and fascinating.

JB SapienzaFriday, August 29, 2014 at 7:44pm PDT

I'd also be curious to know what the overall crowd reaction of those ten people were.

JB SapienzaFriday, August 29, 2014 at 7:18pm PDT

Dude. Thanks so much for going and reporting back. That's really awesome of you guys. I'm really glad you dug it. I mean in my eyes people like you (people like me) are the audience. So I'm really glad to hear you got it. Yeah it was all about letting the shot hold just long enough, maybe too long, before you cut, so you can feel them as real people. We aren't making fun of these guys, maybe having bbit of fun with them, but they are real and this is a slice of America we just wanted to show/explore etc. I'd be curious to know who your favorite characters were. And also what you think of Jonah know vs. what you thought of him before. That's hilarious that they still thought we were doing a Q&A. We told them in no uncertain terms we would not be there. Weird. And funny. Also, only 10 people, but "more than previous screenings" jeez. We knew this one would kind of be a bust. Well, we'll try really hard to get it shown in the LA area again, and if it's a bigger fest we WILL be there. Also Brian is one of my best friends! and yes the end credits guy. ha. Phil & Jon and I all grew up in the same town and Brian was right there with us. He writes for Badass Digest and has a blog called Horror Movie a Day, which had him watch a horror movie each day for 6 years. he's good shit. (also he hadn't seen it yet. I'm kind of nervous to hear his thoughts!) So... thanks again dude. You guys rule. It really means a lot to get to finally share this. Even if it's with just 10 people at a time.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 29, 2014 at 6:54pm PDT

First off... fucking amazing film. You guys killed it. I'm so impressed. Great job letting the camera experience these people and then presenting them in a way that makes the story unfold naturally throughout the movie. So good. The Long Beach Indie film fest was a pretty low-key affair. There were maybe 10 of us at the showing, I think. But I was sitting way up front and didn't turn around so there may have been more. And from what I gathered when I heard some of the staff talking after the showing was a lot more than the earlier films shown today! Anyway, after the film a woman came up to the front and said she was gonna do a QnA and then asked if the filmmakers were there, to which I told her you guys wanted to be there but couldn't make it. She was cool about it and that was pretty much it. I met Brian (the end credits guy?) after the movie. It was kinda awkward. Ha! Anyway, feel free to ask me any questions if you got 'em but I think that pretty much covers the basics. Justique and I loved the flick! Thanks for an awesome experience :D

JB SapienzaFriday, August 29, 2014 at 7:26am PDT

NICE! I hope you guys dig it. But even if you don't, I appreciate that you're going to check it out.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 29, 2014 at 7:24am PDT

Justique and I are going to the screening today! Will report back tonight, let you know what the vibe was like.

JB SapienzaTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 10:29am PDT

mmmm gravy.

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 10:29am PDT

I work from home so it's all gravy.

JB SapienzaTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 9:44am PDT

Awesome! 3pm on a friday is not too weird a time for you?

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 9:22am PDT

Bummer you can't make it but I'll go and report back to you!

JB SapienzaTuesday, August 12, 2014 at 6:39am PDT

August 29th at 3pm. For whatever stupid reason the fest still hasn't released the schedule. But that';s when it's playing. It's a Friday, but at 3pm. Hopefully you can make it. It's 10 bucks. We're not going to be able to go ourselves. But we will come out for the next LA area screening if we can! I'll send you more details when I have them.

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 1:21pm PDT

ha! nice.

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 1:17pm PDT

Ironically, I just found out that one of my fav bands is playing down the street from me here in the LBC on the 31st, so I really hope that the fest doesn't schedule you for the last night!!! haha

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:36pm PDT

I enjoy being surprised and delighted!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:24pm PDT

all sound good. i'll be here so we'll definitely make it happen. and i wanna go to the Jonah screening for sure! i can't wait to see the flick. Holy F*ck is mucho fun. i think it'll surprise and delight you.

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:21pm PDT

also xmas time is the perfect time! can't wait to read it. it looks like it'll be really fun.

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:20pm PDT

and yes, it's that fest

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:20pm PDT

We'll probably get in the day before our screening (but they haven't told us when it is yet!) and depending on what day they screen us, hang out for an extra day or two. We have a few other friends who we grew up with who live out there now, but we definitely wanna meet up with you too!

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 12:02pm PDT

Holy F*ck will be out around the end of the year. Around Xmas, probably. Very timely. Congrats on the Long Beach Film Fest! It's the one happening in late August, right? https://twitter.com/LongBeachIndie I'll be around and we should definitely hang out! Would you come in just for your screening or for the whole event? I know JetBlue does non-stops between Boston and the Long Beach airport, so at least that part of it would be pretty easy.

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 11:16am PDT

Also. I jut remembered/noticed you moved to Long beach. My Name is Jonah got into the Long beach International Independent Film Fest (we can't announce it until they release the official schedule) Phil & I are gonna try and go. If we do, regardless if you see the movie or not, we should try and hang out. We'll make inappropriate awkward jokes at each other. but this time with less hair on your head.

JB SapienzaTuesday, July 29, 2014 at 11:14am PDT

Hey congrats on the new book! when/where can i pick it up?

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:50am PST

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:50am PST

we may never know.

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:48am PST

cool beans man. I hope one day to find out what happens to Jonah in the 1st dimension. But I can wait *kicks can. looks down. single tear. walks off into sunset. hands in pocket*

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:47am PST

nah, count me out this year! thanks for checking in, though.

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:46am PST

I think FCBD is May 3rd this year

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:46am PST

around the third week in April.ish.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:45am PST

what's the due date again?

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:45am PST

and no worries if you can't/don't have time. I understnd how that goes.

JB SapienzaTuesday, March 4, 2014 at 9:41am PST

hey man. Trying to get a head count for FCBD. do you think you'll continue your story from last year? and if so about how many pages?

JB SapienzaMonday, October 7, 2013 at 1:04pm PDT

thanks man. I think I found somebody. But this is a good resource to know about!

JB SapienzaMonday, October 7, 2013 at 11:34am PDT

fair enough. As I expected. If it makes it easier, we have it drawn. It just needs to be colored and right now none of us have the time. I have at least one guy interested, but I have a feeling he's going to be flaking out. No worries.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 7, 2013 at 11:30am PDT

hey dude. If I asked you if you knew any coloring wizards who would be into doing a piece for my movie [for free] in the style of Frazetta or Joe Jusko, what would your answer be?

oh. well I suck even more now. haha.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 23, 2012 at 8:59am PST

No worries! If you're talking about Project Basement, I retired that anyway.

JB SapienzaThursday, February 23, 2012 at 8:41am PST

That's a perfectly acceptable and still excitingly awesome answer. I hope you are able to find the time, and if you are not no worries at the end of the day. I still haven't drawn anything for your group because I suck balls. Have a good trip!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 23, 2012 at 8:38am PST

I'D LOVE TO! Thx for asking. I'm ridiculously bogged down with stuff right now and about to embark on a 2+ week trip that will cut into my time even more, so is it okay if I give you a tentative "HELL YES!" right now and then check back in late March and give you my official word? I'd say it's a 75% yes right now, pending any unforeseen stuff happening between now and early April.

JB SapienzaThursday, February 23, 2012 at 7:53am PST

Hey man, would you be into doing a comic about Jonah for our FCBD issue this year? I'd only need a one pager. we're going to end up with 40+ pages as it is. This is the legalese and important spec information if you are into it that I send to everybody "OK. deadline is April 16th-ish. I'd ask you to keep your page count between 1-3 and the specs straight from our other co-producer and web-guy: 5 wide by 7 high at 150dpi standard for EVERYBODY. If its a two page spread then it will be 10 wide by 7 high at 150dpi. Lastly I want to let you know that by agreeing to participate in the My Name is Jonah FCBD 2012 issue you are giving us permission to use your artwork as a promotional tool for the movie any way we see fit as well as granting permission for us to use your comic in the movie or on the DVD if we so choose. You retain ownership of the original artwork." no worries if you don't want to/don't have time. Something tells me you'd come up with a good Jonah-adventure. peace JB

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:55am PDT

cool. main lining it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:43am PDT

Hahaha I used to live one town over from Bryn Mawr!

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:35am PDT

That's OK. There is nothing to remember. haha It's a bunch of mills. If you look up the "Industrial Revolution" it more or less happened there and then all the work moved to the south because of the cheaper labor and our economy tanked and we became a the arson capitol of the country. ahhh, memories. also, mamories. but i digress. An ex-gf of mine went to Bryn Mawr so I spent a bunch of time in the Philly area, which I know is not the same as Pittsburgh. But it's the closest I can get to relating.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:28am PDT

Pittsburgh PA. My memory of Boston/MA is so bad that I don't even remember Methuen/Lawrence!!!

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:26am PDT

Oh. Cool. where do you live now? I'm from the Methuen/Lawrence area and [aside form a briedf 10 month stint in DC in 2004] have lived in Boston since 1998.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:18am PDT

Hmmm, Reading, eh? Yeah, that's not one I've been to before... but maybe I'll check it out when I'm in New England in Sept! My geography's a little hazy on the Boston area nowadays but I know I've been to/through Reading plenty of times. I was born out in Concord and lived in the area till I was 10, so I've been all around there.

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:12am PDT

duh. yeah, sorry. Comically Speaking

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:11am PDT

What's the shop name?

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:09am PDT

I'll let you know when we get to the music stage if we need any. Thanks for the offer though! The comic shop is just outside Boston. I'm blanking on the town but they go to all the Boston con's because they are right next to us.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 10:01am PDT

Yeah, that's totally fine with me regarding the art. I'm looking forward to drawing something!!! And, of course, watching the movie too. I make instrumental music under the name Nik Furious, so if you're looking for tunes for the soundtrack, I'd be glad to donate one of my existing songs to the cause. If that's something you're looking for, just lemme know and I'll send you some links. I'd be honored if you passed Time Log along to your bud Phil! Is the comic shop in the Boston area? I have Time Log in a few shops around there (just the print one-shot... I haven't been back to Boston since we put out the first color issue collecting the webcomic (#0-17)). Adding you to PB right now....

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 9:52am PDT

Cool. I will check the shit out of the pdf and then pick up my time-logging. actually my buddy Phil posts for a comic book store up here ion MA and is looking for web comics to feature. I'll send him an e-mail of time log. but not the SHHHHHH secret pdf. Yes, please add me to the PB facebook page. I'm stupid busy lately but I'll read the submission info and see if I can whip something up. Official release date you say? not really. We wanted to have it done by next month but since we are paying for it out of our own pockets it gets kind of difficult. I've stepped in as editor and will be plugging away at it over the next 4 months or so and hope to have it done by the end of winter if at all possible. wish me luck! Thanks for watching the trailer man. if you want to do a fan art, send it to my e-mail JBsapienza@gmail.com and just know that by doing it you agree to let us use your art for the DVD for the website, possibly in the film and basically any promotional way we can think to use it. But you retain ownership of the original artwork. cool? cool.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 9:42am PDT

Thx for reading Time Log!!! Shawn's a great penciler. It's definitely got some ? mark type of moments, I know. It may have been a bit ambitious for us, honestly, and that's part of the reason why. A lot of it is also because it's a sequel to the print-only Time Log one-shot. Here's a (secret shhh!!!) PDF of the Time Log one-shot if you wanna read it and fill in some of the blanks: - http://www.audioshocker.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/time-log.pdf Project Basement is an open submission art blog series, and I'd be thrilled to feature a piece by you! Our current theme is Bad Good Guys / Good Bad Guys -- if you're interested, I can add you to the PB Facebook group, which has the submission information and updates: - http://www.facebook.com/groups/247162328630256/ I saw the Jonah trailer a few months back when Josh Blair linked to it. It looks KICKASS!!! I'd love to draw some fan art for the site. Thx for asking :) Do you have an official release date for the film yet? I'm psyched to watch it.

JB SapienzaSaturday, August 20, 2011 at 9:30am PDT

Hey Nick, SO I read tons of the time log web series and really enjoyed it. It's kind of exactly what I thought it would be. A convoluted time-travel story about Neil Diamond... ha. Anyways I really really really loved the artwork. I had kind of a hard time following some of it, but I haven't read it all the way through, so maybe some questions will be answered? Or some answers will be questioned? hmmmm. What's project basement? You need artists to draw stuff? I'd like to sign up for one if at all possible. I'd also like to point you in the direction of the documentary film I have been working www.mynameisjonahfilm.com watch the trailer. I think it's right up your alley. We also have a fan art gallery that I'd love to see you contribute to! Us weird, multi-faceted underground artists have to stick together. that is all. JB

Alex GömöryMonday, January 27, 2014 at 8:12pm PST

Total random thought, but if you ever want to write or record something music related for our website you know you are welcome to. We are in the process of building our website. It looks like a technicolor trainwreck at the moment, but we are building

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 23, 2013 at 6:50pm PST

Here's my advice: you should only change the format of the show if it's something you'd still want to listen to yourselves, and -- most importantly -- if it still fits with the overall vision you have for the series. Bringing it to the AudioShocker will definitely mean more listens, but I can't guarantee that our listener base will interact and connect with the show in any predictable way. Right now, we're mostly focused on comics with some video games and movies conversation too. That's not to say that our listeners wouldn't like a music show -- they might be all about it! But it's not a topic we've cultivated within our listening community, so it'll be relatively untested waters for us. As for working with me, I'm not always the easiest "boss" to have. In the past, I've had to reject podcasts from my contributors if there were serious problems with the audio. And I'm pretty hardcore about deadlines. Also, if we end up working together, I'd ask you to pick a day and stick to it. I don't mind if you post two weeks in a row and then not again for a month. That's okay. But I won't run the episode on a different day of the week unless there's a really important reason. For each episode, I not only need the audio but a written description from you and as well as at least one unique image to accompany the episode (two is even better but three is max). This week's Sequential Underground is a good example of that format: http://www.audioshocker.com/2013/02/20/sequential-underground-60-from-self-publishing-to-publishing-company I guess the last thing I'd say is that the only reason I'd be okay with you changing things with the way you make your show is because you feel like it's an improvement on what you're already doing. I know it might seem enticing to post through the AudioShocker because we've built an audience and a "brand" and all of the RSS infrastructure like an iTunes feed and etc, but that's definitely stuff you can set up on your own with some webspace and a wordpress blog and dedication!

Alex GomorySaturday, February 23, 2013 at 2:59pm PST

So Ryan and I had a chat and we both agreed that we would be interested in teaming up with Audioshocker. Our general conclusion is that we hope our podcastng ability can keep the show afloat, and that we are eager to grow as a podcasting team. We have discussed some options to compensate such as asking artists if they want to showcase their music in the background for free promotion, but we'll get to that bridge when we need to. Obviously if it doesn't work out we can always return to out modestly unethical methods. We finished an episode last weekend that I need to still clean up and edit. Once its done I can send it your way if you wanna give it a shot. Alex

Alex GomorySaturday, February 23, 2013 at 2:54pm PST

Hi Nick,

Nick MarinoFriday, February 22, 2013 at 9:23pm PST

Okay, cool :D

Alex GomoryThursday, February 21, 2013 at 5:37pm PST

Nick, First of all, thanks for the praise! It really feels good for someone who does this to think we are doing a good job! I am sending your reply to my co-host to discuss the possibility of an edited version to supply for you. It does take from the original intention of the show, but at the same time you do make a valid point. I am open to it though. I'll keep you posted. Alex

Nick MarinoThursday, February 21, 2013 at 2:48pm PST

K, I finally gave it a thorough listen!!! The show sounds really good. Nice quality and fun conversation. But as it is right now, I wouldn't be able to run it on the AudioShocker because it has copyrighted music running underneath the entire time. (At least, as far as I know, it's copyrighted stuff! I'm not that familiar with the songs you're discussing.) I know that's a little hypocritical of me because Kenny's done a couple of mix shows for HyperComboCast and I did a few UMvC3 music episodes as well. But those have been really few and far between, not something that happens every episode. Not to mention that the video game music we use isn't stuff where the company wants you to pay to download it. My experience has been that the record labels are a lot more protective about copyrighted albums and singles from recording artists, especially with the AudioShocker's content being downloadable for free on iTunes. If you guys were open switching up the style of the show to eliminate the music underneath and only played 30 seconds or less of the songs you're discussing, I might be willing to give it a shot on the AudioShocker. But that would completely change the format of your show, and I understand if that's not an attractive option for you. But if that's something you're interested in, then we should discuss it some more to iron out the details.

Alex GomorySunday, February 10, 2013 at 4:08pm PST

I appreciate it. Please also bare in mind I don't take offense if it isn't up to a specific standard or just in the interest of your site. Ryan and I are new to this and each episode is an experiment in how to make our show better. Thanks

Nick MarinoSunday, February 10, 2013 at 3:34pm PST

Hey!!! It's kinda weird timing for me because as I type this I'm getting ready to debut a new podcast on the site tonight/tomorrow. So gimme a few days to check out your show and share it with Neal, our site's co-founder, and I'll get back to you! :D

Alex GomorySunday, February 10, 2013 at 1:41pm PST

Hi Nick, I hope this is an appropriate thing to ask, but I am wondering if you would like to add a music podcast to your audio shocker website. I have been doing one with a friend of mind "Riff n' Ralk Music Tock". We are struggling to get listeners so I am looking for other places for us to get exposure. On the plus side we have someone hosting our podcasts online so it would not be an issue of bandwidth. Here is our page http://www.facebook.com/RiffNRalkMusicTock let me know if it is something that is up to your standard of quality or in your interest. Take care Alex

Thx for the feedback! I always love getting these messages :) I'll try to remember to read this on the next show (coming out on Weds), if that's okay with you. And... I MADE A FART COMIC TODAY!

Aaron M. ConleyThursday, October 6, 2011 at 12:15pm PDT

Just caught up on some Ross and Nick podcast. Always great! The fartcast was the best! I was cracking up like crazy, i could hardly draw. I've been coming up with a diarrhea song about everything i do in my life Haha. I was thinking their were alot of fart jokes about giving people pink eye in that movie Knocked Up. Also me and my bud Damon are collaborators and best friends. I don't know why we work tho, it might just be because our personalities are completely different. I usually just throw stuff out there that I want to draw or a character idea I have and say "make sense of this" and he comes back with a story and we will argue sometimes but it's all about coming to the table with a good defense "this will work because of this...". I don't know maybe none of it works and we actually both suck, but at least we suck together and that's what I call a colloration! haha. I'm glad you guys ended the X-men thing. It sounded like it was getting kinda painful! Just some thoughts tho and mainly just writing to let you know i'm still enjoying the podcast. Hey Ross if you are ever looking for another artist to do that shit comic I'll be down to work on it in like a year haha! -Aaron

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 20, 2011 at 9:19am PDT

I'll definitely donate!!! :)

Jami MarloweTuesday, September 20, 2011 at 7:16am PDT

Hi Nick, Jami Luvfest is fast approaching and I appreciate the support both you and Justique have shown. Once again, I'm beginning to beg for donations for the art raffle. Thank you for your Super Haters donation from last year. If you feel generous enough, will you consider donating again? As you know, Jami Luvfest benefits the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank and each year, more and more people are standing in line waiting for food. My little party is a small dent in hunger overall but a huge difference to a few families in Pittsburgh. The Luvfest is on Friday, November 11 and being held in Lawrenceville. I hope you and Justique both get to make it this year (I think she was ill last year and missed seeing her). Thank you, and I hope to see you far before then!

Hey Nick! I was writing because my Teddy Bear Tales Boss: Nick Davis is having a Kickstarter campaign to make an all ages comic. If he hits the target, I get contracted as the artist once again. We are down to the wire and are trying to get the word out to close the gap before time runs out. If you can repost the link, and say a few kind words that would be awesome! Thanks and take care! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/altworld/tristan-and-the-cuddly-defenders-an-all-ages-comic

Hey, Guys, I'll be there at the beginning of the meeting tonight to deliver the new OTG fliers, but I won't be able to stay. Just wanted to give you the heads-up! Best of luck with the discussion. CW

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 27, 2012 at 10:23am PST

For tomorrow, you guys can park anywhere on Stratford Ave between Roup and Friendship. It's 1.5 blocks from my apartment.

Virginia ShieldsSaturday, November 17, 2012 at 7:09pm PST

Noonish is good for me

Nick MarinoThursday, November 15, 2012 at 5:30pm PST

hahahaha Thanksgiving at the Cricket. YES! Virginia, the 19th is gooooooood. What time-ish?

Shawn AtkinsThursday, November 15, 2012 at 8:51am PST

the 28th at 10am sounds good to me. I can come by anytime between now and then to scope out your things. As for the strip club let me know what up I cant foresee a bad night.

Virginia ShieldsThursday, November 15, 2012 at 8:30am PST

That all sounds good. I can do 10am on the 28th. I will be in Shadyside on Monday (the 19th) and can very easily stop by your place to check out the furniture. Would that work for you? As for the Cricket, I don't think we have any plans coming up. Erik and I are both off for most of next week, so any night from Tuesday on will work (except Thanksgiving, but I'm guessing its closed then anyway). I'll see if Erik has any suggestions for a place, too, but I doubt he knows about something we don't.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 14, 2012 at 1:41pm PST

Okay, so Nov 28... MOVING DAY!! If y'all are down, I promise to make it worth your time :D I'll have everything ready so all we have to do is get the van from down the street (across from Whole Foods), toss stuff in it, and unload it. Realistically, I'd love to say 2 hours... but I also know I have a tendency to underestimate things like that, so maybe more like 3. Anyway, we could start at 10 a.m. (Virginia, we'd need to go pick up the van first) and be done ASAP. Lunch on me. If you're interested in taking some of my stuff home with you, we can do that too. But I'd love to have you pick it out ahead of time so I can have it set aside, cleaned up, and ready to go for you. Sooooo... wanna swing by my place sometime within the next week to claim what you want? AND... strip club. So P-Town has dancers, but not every night. I'll call and find out when. I also nominate the Cricket Lounge, unless you have somewhere else you think that would be better. And what night would be good for this? My only bad night is the 17th, which is that concert I told you about at Shadow Lounge.

Renée Alberts, Nick Marino, Corey Wittig, Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonough
Nick MarinoWednesday, November 23, 2011 at 3:31pm PST

Yeah, they didn't get me a car until yesterday! My apologies for the screw up. Nate, did we decide on the topic for December?

Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonoughMonday, November 21, 2011 at 12:51pm PST

Definitely will be there tonight. Hope everything works out, Nick.

Corey WittigMonday, November 21, 2011 at 12:31pm PST

I'll be in the house as a participant. Best of luck, Nick. - cw

Renée AlbertsMonday, November 21, 2011 at 12:25pm PST

Thanks for letting us know, Nick. I hope everything works out for you. Nate, you were planning to come tonight, right? Can you lead the discussion? Thanks, Renée

Nick MarinoMonday, November 21, 2011 at 11:23am PST

hey guys, i'm in a bit of a pickle... i came to the philly area this past weekend for a burial service (the funeral was last month... it's a long story) and some other family stuff. i got a rental car and the plan was to drive back in the late AM and make it back for the meeting tonight. but the car i rented has an engine problem, and the avis here doesn't have anything i can take back right now... the soonest they'll have something will be 4 PM today. so basically i'm stuck here and there's no way i'm gonna make it back by 6:30. sorry it worked out like this... the car was awesome on the way here, so i dunno what exactly went wrong.

Caitlyn Copp-MillwardThursday, December 29, 2011 at 6:52am PST

I may not be home in time for this-don't get out usually until 7. But I'm excited!

Nick MarinoThursday, December 29, 2011 at 6:48am PST

It's gonna be fun!

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, December 28, 2011 at 10:01pm PST

Ok so for tomorrow night's show, as it's the end-of-year episode, here are some talking points I want to touch on: - Your favorite comic-related moment/event of 2011. This can be anything; a storyline, an event, a movie, television show, movie trailer, online drama, etc. It can also be personal; a comic you created, a personal milestone you reached, a change you made in your comic book reading or buying habits, etc. - Your most disappointing comic-related moment of 2011. - What you are looking forward to in 2012. Again, this isn't restricted to just comics, it can be a movie, a tv show, or a project you're working on, etc. - One prediction for 2012. I'd like to start getting everyone online around 8 and hopefully be recording by 8:15. Looking forward to talking to you guys. Let me know if there are any questions, problems or conflicts. Dan

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 1, 2011 at 8:28pm PDT

Hi Shelton - We've never met before, but I know you by your reputation and all of the awesome things people have to say about HeroesCon. I'm a Pittsburgh writer and cartoonist currently self-publishing and working my way up the comics food chain. I've heard fantastic things about Indie Island from some of my Pittsburgh colleagues like Jim Rugg, Tom Scioli, and Ed Piskor. They only have good things to say about exhibiting at HeroesCon. I'm writing because I'd love to get a chance to to exhibit in Indie Island at the 2012 show. I know it's by invitation only and I'm certainly not expecting you to write me back and say "you're in." But it would mean a ton to me if I could at least be considered for a spot at the 2012 HeroesCon. You can find my work at: - http://www.nickmarino.net/ (cartoons, comics, more) - http://comics.superhaters.com/ (my Mon-Fri webcomic) - http://www.audioshocker.com/category/webcomics (another webcomic of mine, as well as my podcasting website) Thx!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 12:37pm PST

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 11:58am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 11:47am PST

i can actually make it out there at a normal time, as in not late for once, so 1 PM for me. you take the 71B out there and ride it almost all the way up Highland Ave to the park.

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 11:00am PST

cool what time 130 what was the bus to get out there again

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 10:20am PST

let's go for the highland park place since we did starfucks last time!

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 8:58am PST

either place would work for me! thanks for being so cool...i promise i'll be more mobile in 2012!

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 8:24am PST

we dont have to come to my house we can pick a place to kick it like the starbucks near nicks house or the coffee shop in highland park (and this time im staying on the bus) or what ever sets your fancy

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, December 20, 2011 at 5:52am PST

haha...that's awesome! Shawn's place sounds super cool and I don't want to be a party pooper, but I don't think my car and I are up for the trek (she's got a bad wheel bearing now and I'm a total traffic pussy). I'm really sorry but don't let me stop the fun!! I can catch yinz next week no worries!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 19, 2011 at 11:31am PST

I was just about to message you!!! Shawn and I were thinking Wednesday. Any time is good for me. We were also gonna try and give his place a shot, if that's possible. If you're down to drive, I'll bring the snacks + drinks!!! But no pressure :) If not, that's okay too.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, December 19, 2011 at 11:28am PST

Hey! Are you guys free for coffee sometime this week? Any day is good for me...but I know the holiday is impending!

Maybe NDC will hook you up with 185-190 as a thank you for being at the event!!

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 7, 2012 at 12:03pm PDT

Hahaha...actually I'm missing 185-190, but I do have 191 all the way to 250.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:56am PDT

THEN LET'S DO THIS! (Do we get to review Avengers #185 too??)

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:54am PDT

Not a problem, I'm happy to give you a ride.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:52am PDT

I'm down for some p-castin'. I'd need a lift, though!!

Brandon 'Link' MillwardFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:35am PDT

Interested but I don't think I'll be able to make it. I'll let you guys know otherwise.

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:31am PDT

I'd like to go early in the day, maybe get there around 11:30-12:00. I have a friend's birthday dinner to go to later on, so I'll probably have to be home around 6:00. Scott's out of town at the Baltimore Comic Con, so he won't be joining us, which brings me to another question. NDC invited me to set up and record a live podcast so if anyone is also interested in that, I'd love to have the company.

Nick MarinoFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:26am PDT

I'm game. What time you thinking?

Dan GreenwaldFriday, September 7, 2012 at 11:18am PDT

Anyone interested in going out to New Dimensions Comics at Century III tomorrow for the grand re-opening in their new location?

Nick Marino, Virginia Shields
Nick MarinoFriday, November 9, 2012 at 12:52pm PST

Nobody ever got back to me about the mall show on Sunday :( I guess they're full??

Virginia ShieldsThursday, November 8, 2012 at 11:39am PST

Awesome!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 7, 2012 at 5:52pm PST

THE SEQUENCE!!! Panel 7 Hester, now wearing her shoulder bag full of documents, is on the middle of the roof, further back back from the edge. She's getting ready to run and leap off of the building. We see her as she's just beginning her to build up her momentum. Panel 8 LIFT OFF!!! Hester's back foot pushes off the edge of the roof as she goes airborne! We can see a few birds close to her as she begins her leap. Panel 9 Hester uses the pigeons like stepping stones as she crosses through the city sky as if she's hopping across a creek or a small river. Panel 10 The tourists on the street go silent and stare straight up as they watch Hester skipping across the pigeons. One tourist gasps. TOURIST: GASP! Panel 11 Hester lands on the roof of the Knight Corp building near Night Knight, just like an Olympic gymnast with her legs crouched and arms extended for balance.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 22, 2012 at 9:21am PDT

Yo, there's this Nov 3 comics show a few hours away in Ohio. If they still have table space, are you interested? Here's a link: http://www.facebook.com/NEGEEKEXPO/posts/415535521834751 The only catch is that they want to see a copy of our Ohio vendor's license, which I'm looking into right now. I think it's free.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 2:36pm PDT

Yeah, I think I'm good for this Wednesday.

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 12:29pm PDT

That sounds more do-able! Sorry to be so lame...I didn't expect a wedding to be so exhausting! By the way, I'm finally back to a regular schedule so we should totally kick it on Wednesday if you & Shawn are free!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 11:50am PDT

You don't have to do it for the whole time or make it competitive.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 11:49am PDT

You can always just come and hang out :D

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 11:37am PDT

Lolz! In all honesty, all I want to do this weekend is fiddle with my new tablet and get used the software so I can get back into making comics! But I feel bad about missing 2 events in a row :(

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 10:03am PDT

AHHHH I DUNNO!!

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 8:26am PDT

I'm pretty certain I won't be able to stay up all night but during the day should be alright. I don't know if that will make things more difficult for you, so I'll leave it up to you whether you want to collaborate. I would probably just use pen and paper. Erik got me a sweet digital tablet as a wedding present, but I'm not good enough with it yet to be fast :)

Nick MarinoFriday, October 19, 2012 at 6:27am PDT

It starts at noon so I'd wanna be there for the beginning to get in the full 24 hrs. I'd love to collaborate if you're still interested! But if you think you'd have a tough time making it through the 24 hours, I understand :D If we are gonna collaborate, how should we split the duties? Also, what kind of materials should we use???

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 19, 2012 at 4:37am PDT

Hey! Yea I'm still interested but I've been pretty exhausted since last weekend. When do you think you'd be there and do you still want to work on something together?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 18, 2012 at 7:14am PDT

cooooooooooooooool. so you still down for 24 Hour Comics Day this weekend?

Virginia ShieldsThursday, October 18, 2012 at 4:38am PDT

Thanks! It was awesome!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 16, 2012 at 12:29pm PDT

CONGRAAATS! how was the wedding?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 11:23am PDT

that's good :D

Virginia ShieldsMonday, September 24, 2012 at 11:01am PDT

yea I'm just down with some sickness. And I missed being there! I was pissed I couldn't make it. But I'm starting to feel better so yay

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 12:30pm PDT

YOOOOO! we missed you yesterday :( hope everything's okay!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 18, 2012 at 3:03pm PDT

okay cool. should we do a collabo or do you wanna work on separate stories?

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, September 18, 2012 at 1:18pm PDT

There's no honeymoon planned so I'm still down!

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 18, 2012 at 12:24pm PDT

So if you're getting hitched on the 13th, are you going on a honeymoon right away? Basically, I'm wondering if you're still down for 24 Hour Comics Day on Oct 20th. It's gonna be at Eljay's bookstore in Dormont.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, August 13, 2012 at 4:37am PDT

At this point, I only have to print more Pittsburgh books. I was thinking about doing 100 of them though.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 11:34am PDT

so printing... i dunno how much i need to print... i'm doing SPX, PIX, and NYCC in the fall. that's a lot of shows but i kind of want to encourage my customers to buy more digital products from me. i don't think i'd be printing much in the way of minicomics, but probably flyers and backing boards for the digital products. how much do you have to print for the fall shows? if it seems like enough stuff, we could definitely do a combo order with Best Value Copy. they only let you upload 5 PDFs at a time. i'd probably be able to group my stuff into 2 PDFs. would 3 be enough for you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 30, 2012 at 11:17am PDT

coloring. i'd be down to color some more of your stuff. it'd have to be something i'm real into, of course... maybe a short story or something like that. maybe lettering too if that's something you're interested in. let's talk tomorrow!!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 23, 2012 at 4:47pm PDT

OH NO!!! yeah 830 is fine. good luck.

Virginia ShieldsWednesday, May 23, 2012 at 4:46pm PDT

hey! can we push the recording back to 8:30? I found my neighbor's cat dead in the yard and i have to go tell her :/

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 5:24am PDT

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 5:23am PDT

Oh no worries! I don't expect you to! So I'm guessing we will be talking about this week's strip on the podcast?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 5:09am PDT

sounds good. sorry... i keep forgetting your work schedule!!!!!

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 5:04am PDT

Sweet! Thanks! I'd have to do after 7:30 because of work. So how about 8?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 22, 2012 at 4:55am PDT

whatever time works best for you on Weds... though i do like to go to the comic shop around 6ish on Weds, so i guess before 5:30 or after 7:30. BTW, you're invited if you wanna come along :) COMICS RULE!! and i'll email you the first two strips in a few mins.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, May 21, 2012 at 7:54pm PDT

like under 1000 pixels wide or whatever? I've been having to resize all my pictures to make the site run faster. yea i could do weds...what time?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 21, 2012 at 7:47pm PDT

oh, also... i'd love to record a Destruct-O-Cast with you for this Friday. you down with that? maybe Weds night???

Nick MarinoMonday, May 21, 2012 at 7:43pm PDT

hahaha okay... but HOW small?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, May 21, 2012 at 6:22pm PDT

smaller please!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 21, 2012 at 6:13pm PDT

Virginia ShieldsMonday, May 21, 2012 at 3:17pm PDT

awesome!!! thx :) i'll let you know either way.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, December 5, 2011 at 8:21am PST

You can definitely catch a ride with me. I would probably leave around 12:15 or 12:20. Just send me a text or something to let me know if you'll be back in time!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 5, 2011 at 7:39am PST

yes, i am but my GF has a doc's appt at 11:15 and i'm going with her. i might be out by noon, or then again i might get out at 1... what time do you leave to head over there? basically, i'm wondering if i'm out in time if i could catch a ride with you.

Virginia ShieldsMonday, December 5, 2011 at 5:15am PST

yea i was planning on it, how about you?

Nick MarinoSunday, December 4, 2011 at 8:57pm PST

are you going to the cartoonists lunch on tuesday?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 9:33am PST

K, thx! I'm probably booked for next week... I get back on Tuesday and leave on Thursday.

Virginia ShieldsWednesday, November 16, 2011 at 7:05am PST

Hey Nick! I just wanted to let you know that I am officially out of town for the rest of the week but next week is completely open for me. Talk to you later!

Virginia ShieldsMonday, November 14, 2011 at 5:08am PST

haha! that's wise...and i probably shouldn't be making plans either! I'll let you know if I'll be around later this week

Nick MarinoMonday, November 14, 2011 at 4:52am PST

ya know what? i shouldn't make plans for today. i got a ton of stuff to do AND the weather sucks. but lemme know if stuff opens up for you later in the week!

Virginia ShieldsMonday, November 14, 2011 at 4:37am PST

that's cool! I should be free by our usual time if you want to get together. It's also possible that I will be free for the rest of the week after all, but I won't know till this evening.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 13, 2011 at 4:27pm PST

tomorrow's not necessarily bad for me!

Virginia ShieldsSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 5:25pm PST

Just Monday unfortunately

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 12, 2011 at 11:43am PST

Any good days for u next week?

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 5:44am PST

good idea! im 724.216.7864

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 5:35am PST

what are your digits? i'm 4847987753

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 4:47am PST

groovy...that works for me!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 4:38am PST

okay, sweet. i'm down for 1 PM again if you are.

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 4:36am PST

Oh sorry! I meant Highland :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 8, 2011 at 4:17am PST

Tazza's fine with me... one question, though -- you say Tazzo on Negley, but the only one I know is on Highland Ave. Do you mean that one or is there a new one on Negley?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, November 7, 2011 at 8:50am PST

Just Tazzo D'oro on Negley, it's one of of the few I haven't visited yet. I'd also do the Crazy Mocha in Bloomfield if that's better!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 7, 2011 at 8:28am PST

Dunno! You got a different place you wanna try?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, November 7, 2011 at 5:17am PST

Sure! Where would you like to go?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 5, 2011 at 11:24am PDT

Wanna do thurs again?

Virginia ShieldsSaturday, November 5, 2011 at 10:08am PDT

Totally! Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday are all good for me.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 5, 2011 at 7:40am PDT

Good times the other day! Any day good for you next week?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 31, 2011 at 2:14pm PDT

How about 1 PM?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, October 31, 2011 at 12:26pm PDT

That would be awesome! What time should we meet?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 31, 2011 at 12:08pm PDT

Thursday works pretty well for both me and Shawn. wanna kick it at the Shadyside Crazy Mocha?

Virginia ShieldsMonday, October 31, 2011 at 10:53am PDT

haha! I like the crazy mocha in Bloomfield, too. Either place is fine with me! The best days for me this week are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 28, 2011 at 1:51pm PDT

I've never been to tazza, so that'd be cool. There's also the Crazy Mocha in Bloomfield too. I sorta hate the one on Ellsworth cause they always get my drink wrong, but i'm still down for that :) Any good days for you next week?

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 28, 2011 at 8:46am PDT

haha...groovy! i am almost always free on weekdays. shadyside is definitely easier for me if you guys are looking for a change of pace, i think the crazy mocha there is pretty cool and there's tazza d'oro on negly ave that i have yet to visit. so just let me know! its a shame the coffeeshop in morningside is gone, it would be the perfect place to draw!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 28, 2011 at 6:38am PDT

no worries. that message was from last week anyway. i'm not sure when we're meeting up next... probably this sunday, though halloween might throw that for a loop. sometimes we meet up on weekdays too. dunno if that's good for you or not. we're also always looking for reasons to kick it in east lib / shadyside, so if that's better for you we're down because going to the same place every week (*ahem* kiva *ahem*) gets a little old!

Virginia ShieldsFriday, October 28, 2011 at 5:49am PDT

Hey! Sorry it took me so long to respond! Thank you for inviting me, but I can't make it this week...I'm finally picking up my car this Sunday, which has been plagued by a mystery illness for over a month! But please let me know the next time you guys are meeting because I would love to join you and I'll have a car to get there!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 20, 2011 at 8:24pm PDT

hey, Shawn and I are gonna be working on comics at Kiva Han on Craig St this Sunday from 12:30ish until around 5ish. lemme know if you wanna come hang!

TIME LOG WRAP PARTY! Sooo.... the comic is done. And that means wrap party, my place. What dates and times are good for all of you? (I need at least one full week to get this place cleaned up.)

Nick Marino, Nick Weidenfeld
Nick MarinoMonday, January 9, 2012 at 3:17pm PST

Hi Nick - This is probably gonna go down as one of my all-time worst ideas, but here it goes anyway... I just read the NYT article about the new block of FOX late-night animation that you're heading up. I don't know how accurate that article is, but they made it sound like you're gonna be developing a ton of new properties for the Saturday night time slot. I assume you're not hard up for ideas or concepts, but in the event that you're looking for something new, I'd like to pass along my comic, Super Haters ( http://comics.superhaters.com/ ). The concept is pretty simple -- slacker superheroes stand around and argue with each other instead of going out and fighting crime. I think it'd be a fucking sweet animated show, in the vein of the Adult Swim stuff you've done. Obviously I'm a little biased about that. If you're interested in finding out more about Super Haters, I could mail you some comics or even email you PDFs (if you hate paper, that is). And sorry if it's poor form to just Facebook message you out of the blue like this. I never really do this sort of thing, but I figured "what the fuck? why not??"

hi, because you are as well a friend of Adrian I am going to inform u what exactly I found out, that internet site http://www.facebook.com/pages/1238819919/145233722258960 is going crazy at the moment and sending out an i Phone 5 to persons that are generally at face book for free...all they want is your thoughts and opinions about the iPhone 5 and you can keep it forever. however you should hurry up before they shut it.

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:58am PST

Maybe they're afraid the next thing Nick posts will be a picture of himself in one of those onesies...

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:54am PST

just sayin

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:54am PST

why would ANYONE leave this conversation.....brats

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:50am PST

That would be perfect

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:31am PST

I guess I could picture Shawn in one of these...

Jessica HeberleTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 9:00am PST

YES!!!!!!!! That would be awesome also a Wonder woman or Batman onesie is in the works lol

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, February 12, 2013 at 8:51am PST

Hey guys! I'm not sure how many of you know, but Shawn Atkins & his wife Stephanie are expecting a baby in May. I figure a baby shower is in the works for Steph, but I wanted to see if any his friends in the Pittsburgh comic community would be interested in pitching in on a gift card for them as a surprise. Anyone who's interested, either message me on Facebook or send me an email at dan.greenwald@gmail.com. Thanks Dan

Hi Tirzah! Thx for reminding me :) I REALLY want to apply to present at this next Soup N'at!!! But I'm exhibiting at the Buffalo Small Press Book Fair on the 24th, and I don't have my trip 100% planned out yet. There's a really good chance I'll be back in time, but I gotta iron out the details still. Anyway, super big thx for the reminder and hopefully I'll be able to present this March!!!

Tirzah DeCariaFriday, February 24, 2012 at 3:23pm PST

Hi Nick! I met you at the last round of Soup N'at and I just wanted to remind you that the applications for our March 25th event are now open... click here for more info and spread the word to your friends! http://soupnat.wordpress.com/submission-guidelines/ Cheers, Tirzah PS thanks for the Stick Cats gift - a fun read!

They have the pdf for $2, so I grabbed it. Thanks again for the heads up, Jim.

Cool, thanks, I'll have to check into that.

Jim RuggThursday, October 25, 2012 at 9:43am PDT

I've gotten copies from Phantom in Oakland, Jessica Abel at MoCCA, Todd's in Elwood City, and there's a copy at Half Price Books on McKnight right now. They're also available on TAL's site for 5 bucks:

Nick MarinoThursday, October 25, 2012 at 8:06am PDT

I'm allergic to all things This American Life.

Dan GreenwaldThursday, October 25, 2012 at 7:59am PDT

I've never heard of that comic but it sounds really interesting. Where did you find that?

Jim RuggThursday, October 25, 2012 at 7:39am PDT

I bought a microphone. Gonna try it out this evening. Have you guys ever read the comic book, Radio: An Illustrated Guide? It's by Jessica Abel and Ira Glass and it details the production of an entire episode of This American Life - not a podcast, but still...it's gets into serious detail about interview strategies, editing, composition, sound. It's one of my favorite comics ever and the comic book that I've purchased the most copies of in my life (well over 10).

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 9:54pm PDT

Yeah Sunday is kind of a bust overall. Those were slim pickings.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 9:29pm PDT

Hehehe nice Dan! We had all of the same stuff except for Sunday morning. I couldn't find anything in the afternoon on Sunday that looked good...

Dan GreenwaldWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 7:16pm PDT

Hey Jim Here's what I came up with: Saturday 10:00 am Podcasting – The Behind the Scenes Look 11:00am How to Audio Podcast 100% from an iPad 1:00pm I’ve Started A Podcast. Now What? 2:00pm ??? 3:00pm Podcaster’s Toolbox Sunday 10:00am Visualize Your New Media Thang 11:00am We’re Still Here: Why we’re still Podcasting and loving it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 5:30pm PDT

Okay, so the bad news is that there don't seem to be any panels about monetizing. There are some about advertising, but I think they're more about how to leverage your Facebook and Twitter profiles. The big tech one is Sorg's panel on Saturday. Otherwise, none of them seem especially tech-heavy this year. SATURDAY 10:00 am Podcasting – The Behind the Scenes Look by Rob Walch (Might be a little rudimentary... not totally sure, but I think the description makes it sound like a beginner's type of thing. But I might be wrong!) 11:00 am How to Audio Podcast 100% from an iPad by Rob Walch (Dunno if you're interested in this, but I think it sounds good.) 1:00 pm I’ve Started A Podcast. Now What? by Nick Marino & Neal Shyam (It's gonna be sweeeeet! But this other panel looks good too...) Rules (and Myths) of Engagement by Carla Swank 2:00 pm I dunno!! 3:00 pm Podcaster’s Toolbox by Mike Sorg (Mike's a pretty big podcast techy, so you'll probably dig this one.) SUNDAY 10:00 am What We Don’t Know That We Know, and Those Who Know What We Don’t Know by Michael Munz (Not 11:00 am We’re Still Here: Why we’re still Podcasting and loving it! Panel Discussion (A good panel to ask tech and $$$ questions.)

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 1:48pm PDT

I need to take a look at the schedule!! I'll let you know what I think. I feel like I'm terrible at picking sessions for myself, so take my suggestions with that warning!

Jim RuggWednesday, October 24, 2012 at 10:29am PDT

Hey, Dan and Nick -- I was looking at the Podcamp programming. Wow. There's a lot. Not sure where to begin. I was wondering if you two recommend any specific sessions or speakers that I should attend. Think of me as a newbie with primary interests in technical/production/editing and advertising/monetizing. Thanks for any recommendations. Jim Rugg

Jared Catherine, Nick Marino
Jared CatherineFriday, April 10, 2015 at 11:55am PDT

Thanks dude!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 11:41am PDT

cool. congrats!

Jared CatherineFriday, April 10, 2015 at 11:24am PDT

Yep, final day with CVS. Heading up to another office job on the 20th. Same industry (AmerisourceBergen) just not as hectic.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 10, 2015 at 10:01am PDT

oooooooo... today's your last day at the office job? still CVS?

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:44pm PDT

I hear ya!

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:40pm PDT

oh yeah he's got tons of valid points. but i like the challenge of trying to convince him otherwise ;)

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:36pm PDT

I certainly understand his point of view. He has a valid concern as far as being a retailer goes. People love to kick up shit storms, especially when it comes to comics.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:35pm PDT

I'm not as eloquent as you but hopefully I did it nice and proper.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:35pm PDT

cool well whatever happens i'm down. it was cool to read his thoughts.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:30pm PDT

It is Colin, btw.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:29pm PDT

No, but it was sent to the show so it would've been discussed their.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:29pm PDT

If it is Colin, I probably have his email somewhere anyway. But the intro from you would be great because I get the impression that Colin never intended me to read that message anyway! hahaha

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:28pm PDT

That might be easier...their website doesn't have an email listed

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:27pm PDT

You could even send an introduction message here through FB if you prefer.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:24pm PDT

I don't have a problem with that. The message came through Facebook. Let me see if I can find a proper email address.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:22pm PDT

Would it be okay if you passed along the email address of the person who sent this to you so I can open up a dialogue with them? (It's Colin McMahon, right? And if you could send an introduction email to both of us, I'd be eternally grateful!!!) I know we're gonna have an uphill battle with Holy F*ck and I intended to roll the boulder all the way to the fucking top :D Thanks for sharing this with me!!!!

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:04pm PDT

We got this from the dude at Pittsburgh Comics... "Unfortunately, Nick & Action Lab have made a fatal error here. While the title is clever, it is also a title that I can't put on my shelf. While it doesn't "say" the word, there is enough there that I, as a store owner and member of the community, don't want to deal with. What I mean is that I don't need to take any grief over this. I can't put it on the shelf. Mom comes in with 10 yr old Timmy. Timmy can put 1 + 1 together and fill in the space and says it out loud and now I have a screaming mom telling all of her friends. For Dan, could you really put that on the shelf in a mall, where all sorts of people come wandering through? And I am sure I'm not the only store that thinks this way. I'm sure Phantom in Oakland gets far fewer moms in the store with little kids, so it may work for him. But this book will be limited to subs only with none for the shelf. That's kind of limiting your market. All due to the title. If it had bigger names or from a bigger well known publisher, there'd be a better chance (Garth Ennis at Avatar, say). But I really don't think this book has a chance just due to the title. I'm not saying we are all prudes, but we have to look at the big picture. I had to send an email off to Jim Balent at Broadsword saying I don't care what he does on the inside, just keep the nudity off of the cover (he was having nude little nymphs on the cover). If Timmy opens a book and sees something bad, that I can live with. He actually did something. But just walking by and seeing it is on me. I had sent Dan a note about how covers can help sell or hurt a book. In this case, I'm sad to say that the cover is going to keep the book off of the shelves. Sure I could bag them and put tape over the 2nd word, but even that is getting to be too much work for a book that is only going to sell a handful of copies. I'm afraid most stores are just going to pass. It could be the best written, most visually spectacular book in the world, but its going to have trouble finding shelf space even in those stores that do carry all of the indy books."

Jared CatherineSaturday, February 8, 2014 at 8:47pm PST

Thanks for the info. A buddy of mine approached me earlier with an idea about building such a site. I couldn't think of any nor could Shawn.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 8, 2014 at 6:40pm PST

On the bottom of the Super Haters sidebar, there's a list of webcomics directories, most of which have ratings systems. http://comics.superhaters.com/ But I don't think any of those are hosting sites (maybe one or two of them?). Webcomic Underdogs has a great list of hosting sites and some of those have ratings systems. http://webcomicunderdogs.com/resources/webcomic-hosting/

Jared CatherineSaturday, February 8, 2014 at 12:14pm PST

Do you know of any Funny or Die type sites for webcomics? Any sites that host them and use any type of rating system?

Nick MarinoSunday, October 13, 2013 at 9:27pm PDT

yeah, i bought afroella last year. i think shawn has that copy now.

Jared CatherineSunday, October 13, 2013 at 8:24pm PDT

It was a blast! I discovered a book you might already be aware of (I say that because I see Audioshocker follows them on Twitter) AFroella from Kromatron Comics, they're out of London, England. Have you read it? I dug the shit out of it! It was a real fun book. I interviewed the creative team for an upcoming Comic Book Pitt.

Nick MarinoSunday, October 13, 2013 at 8:15pm PDT

glad it helped!!! and glad you had fun :)

Jared CatherineSunday, October 13, 2013 at 7:05pm PDT

We're back from NYCC, thanks again for the list, we were pretty much able to tick off each point you mentioned. The Central PA roots worked with the Comic Geek Speak guys (well guy, the dude Adam was very friendly.) He and I chatted quite a bit. (We both went to Penn State!) The other guys weren't very outgoing towards us, but were polite (fair enough). There was one dude who stayed and talked & talked about podcasts and how much he loves them, so I recommended he check out the AudioShocker!

Jared CatherineFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:52pm PST

Hey, Im still trying to pretend Im reputable over here, cut some slack!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:43pm PST

oh so I'm not good enough for the porn address? i see how it is.

Jared CatherineFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:40pm PST

I save that one for registering porno sites and shit like that, haha

Nick MarinoFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:38pm PST

that email address is too complicated for me. where's the numbers and/or catchy username????

Jared CatherineFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:30pm PST

Sweet dude! My email address is jared_catherine@yahoo.com

Nick MarinoFriday, November 30, 2012 at 3:27pm PST

What's your email address? I have a kickass idea for what I think would be an extra-awesome Super Haters collaboration for us and I wanna email you the outline!!!

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Virginia Shields
Virginia ShieldsWednesday, May 30, 2012 at 9:58am PDT

Omg Kazaam!!!! lol

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, May 30, 2012 at 6:22am PDT

Black people can do it all we've even been on the moon... the secret moon! (If this has come off as racist it's okay I'm allowed I'm half black and I have a black card to prove)

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 30, 2012 at 4:42am PDT

KAZAM!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kazaam see y'all there :D

Virginia ShieldsWednesday, May 30, 2012 at 4:25am PDT

haha...at first I thought you said black rappin genie. yea thursday...around 1:30?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 29, 2012 at 9:03pm PDT

so thursday?

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, May 29, 2012 at 8:16pm PDT

sounds like a plan jan... er I mean Virginia (i don't even know a jan. Damn this black rappin gene)

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, May 29, 2012 at 5:53pm PDT

I'm down! Usual place and time?

Shawn AtkinsTuesday, May 29, 2012 at 2:45pm PDT

Hey comic makin people are kickin it like the slick cats that we are this week. Holla at yo boy (and by boy I mean me,who is not a boy just a curmudgeon)

Nick Marino, Andrew Kilian
Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 9:06pm PDT

I'm not able to add that stuff at this point... I can only do that when I'm first submitting the book. But you can email rollcall@comixology.com when the book goes live and they'll add it for you!

Andrew KilianFriday, March 27, 2015 at 8:40pm PDT

Do you still need a bio and a pic?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 7:44pm PDT

Super Haters. ComiXology. April 1.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 8:36pm PST

Great!!!! I'm so glad you're down. ComiXology asks for artist info when I submit the book. That means a photo (600 x 600 px) and a short bio. Here's mine for an example: https://www.comixology.com/Nick-Marino/comics-creator/36229

Andrew KilianWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 8:11pm PST

That's totally fine by me. Go for it, dude!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:00pm PST

surprise! here's a thing i did: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/02-naked-horsey-ride.pdf (i recommend making the PDF full screen and then using the right arrow key to go page-by-page) i've selected seven Super Haters stories to test out the waters on ComiXology. they're all formatted to be read in that panel-by-panel mode called Guided View Native. i'd like to submit the seven stories as one collected edition to ComiXology. i think a fair split is that each artist will get 10% of the profits and i'll keep everyone updated on our progress once the book is accepted and starts to sell. frankly, i don't expect the profits to be much! but it'll be cool to have our Super Haters story available on a big venue like ComiXology :D so what do you think... are you down with this?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 3, 2012 at 9:37am PDT

Thx for saying!!! I appreciate you going out on a limb and saying something. Sorry if I jolted you by just quitting Skype.

Andrew KilianThursday, May 3, 2012 at 9:35am PDT

That's cool. My conscience was nagging me and I know I can be a lot to take, so I just wanted to make amends if I was a jerk.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 3, 2012 at 9:34am PDT

i'm sorry if i gave you that impression!!!! i was just joking around by quitting the conversation like that. hahaha i couldn't even remember what we were talking about at that point if somebody had a gun to my head.

Andrew KilianThursday, May 3, 2012 at 9:31am PDT

So... it's pretty obvious by the way you cut off the connection yesterday that I offended you and I wanted to apologize for that. I didn't pick up on your hints and hope there's no hard feelings.

i may be able to get one for you Mav,

Chris MaverickWednesday, October 3, 2012 at 10:37am PDT

Sweet thanks guys. This will really help. And if everyone else wants to do one too that can totally get me through the semester. :-)

Dawn GriffinWednesday, October 3, 2012 at 10:23am PDT

man, Z&F combined with cosmic hellcats seems like something that HAS to be done regardless. Maybe I could do a single panel comic this sunday. we'll see.

Chris FlickWednesday, October 3, 2012 at 10:23am PDT

Sent a reply to your FB wall post. I'll try to get this to you as soon as i can since I'm leaving for new Jersey Saturday morning. Hey, it's the LEAST I could do for you, brother! :-)

Vince LoGrecoWednesday, October 3, 2012 at 10:19am PDT

If I can squeeze it in, I will do one again. I will let you know if I have the time.

Chris MaverickWednesday, October 3, 2012 at 10:17am PDT

Hi guys, Anyone want to do me a huge favor? I need guest art. Max and I have been running three separate strips (1 day a week each) at Hellcats these days. I have a couple big papers coming up so I don't have time to do the thursday strips for a couple weeks. I just finished a storyline, so I thought it might be fun to run some pinups by other artists for a couple weeks. Anyone interested in doing one? It wouldn't have to be a full strip or anything (though if you want to feel free) but if you could do a pinup of one or some of our characters, and mail it to me at mav@cosmichellcats.com that'd be awesome. Feel free to toss your own in there as well if you like. Color or black and white, doesn't matter. Your own style. Use any of our characters you want. And of course I'll link it back to your site when it runs. I'd need it in the next week or two. It would really help me out. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks. -Mav

Nick MarinoThursday, May 24, 2012 at 11:20am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 6:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 5:47pm PDT

Kenny RiotSunday, May 20, 2012 at 3:50pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 3:28pm PDT

Kenny RiotSunday, May 20, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 20, 2012 at 10:38am PDT

WAZZUP Thursday would be better for me. What time?

Kenny RiotSaturday, May 19, 2012 at 3:35pm PDT

Kenny RiotSaturday, May 19, 2012 at 3:35pm PDT

Cool, cool.

Mike DentSaturday, May 19, 2012 at 3:31pm PDT

Tuesday and Thursday are usually my good days

Kenny RiotSaturday, May 19, 2012 at 3:31pm PDT

Virginia ShieldsMonday, May 21, 2012 at 6:41pm PDT

Dan GreenwaldTuesday, September 25, 2012 at 9:37pm PDT

Okay I did my 50!

Shawn AtkinsMonday, September 24, 2012 at 10:22pm PDT

I like that too and thats a good time for me as well.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 6:55pm PDT

BTW, if this 50 things list is too ambitious, maybe we could just revisit some previous topics that we'd like to share new thoughts about. for example, i have new things to say about fan feedback and what i wish i'd known when i started.

Dan GreenwaldMonday, September 24, 2012 at 6:55pm PDT

Sounds good

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 6:54pm PDT

usual time tomorrow night, 8 PM?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 12:58pm PDT

Hahaha maybe my session won't get approved then!!!

Dan GreenwaldMonday, September 24, 2012 at 11:26am PDT

That's funny because Sorg said the panel was going to be comprised of podcasters who have been around for awhile, the working title is "We're Still Here".

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 11:24am PDT

I pitched a session about podcast longevity. What panel are you gonna be on?

Dan GreenwaldMonday, September 24, 2012 at 9:47am PDT

Cool. Sorg invited me to be on a podcasting panel. What session did you propose?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 24, 2012 at 9:43am PDT

i pitched a them on a session and i'm still waiting to hear back from them. neal will be in town that weekend, so we'll be at the party on friday and at my session (if it's approved). otherwise, i dunno!!!

Shawn AtkinsMonday, September 24, 2012 at 9:40am PDT

Dan GreenwaldMonday, September 24, 2012 at 9:36am PDT

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 23, 2012 at 10:01am PDT

The shared google doc is a great idea.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:52am PDT

or we could just talk about holiday comics.

Shawn AtkinsSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:50am PDT

that sound cool nick and wow has it really been 2 years.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:47am PDT

ooops. i was wrong. 51 will be our two-year anniversary.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:43am PDT

and there could also be a Zine Fair recap, of course!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:43am PDT

we could use Google Docs to come up with a shared list. it could be things about making comics, reading comics, characters, creators, series, and fans.

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:42am PDT

since it's our 50th episode AND our two-year anniversary, what do you guys think about the topic "50 Things We Love About Indie Comics"?

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:33am PDT

Well you guys can recap the zine fair too, I'd like to hear about it since I couldn't make it out

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:30am PDT

there ya go. just in time.

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:24am PDT

Hahaha. Well the holidays are just a few months away...

Nick MarinoSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:21am PDT

I think we should finally talk about holiday comics

Dan GreenwaldSunday, September 23, 2012 at 9:21am PDT

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 10:26am PDT

double thanks glad you like it!

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 11, 2012 at 7:06am PDT

THX!!!! Great meeting you at the show, too! What part of town are you in? I ask because Shawn and I often hang out at coffee shops, draw comics, and shoot the shit. You're invited if you ever wanna come hang. We normally kick it in the Bloomfield/East Lib general area.

Jared CatherineTuesday, April 10, 2012 at 5:50pm PDT

Hey guys, it was good meeting you two at the Mini Con last week. I dug the books. Time Log was a lot of fun. I had to go back and read them again in one sitting just to make sure I got everything. I especially enjoyed the nod to Scranton. I grew up about an hour and change away from there. I laughed at your rendition of Montage Mountain (clever pun, by the way). The only "criticism" I really have about the book was the next day I woke up with that Neil Diamond song stuck in my head, haha! Again, it was good chatting with you guys. I'll catch ya around! Take it easy! Jared

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardSaturday, October 3, 2015 at 4:50pm PDT

Heading to baggage claim!

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardSaturday, October 3, 2015 at 4:48pm PDT

Hey! I'm here!

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardWednesday, September 30, 2015 at 6:46am PDT

Ok great!

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:27pm PDT

Relaxing is totally cool! There's no rush to do anything. :D

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardMonday, September 28, 2015 at 10:10pm PDT

I have a feeling I may not want to do much of anything the first 2 days. maybe sit near water but not necessarily breathtaking water lol. If it makes sense for us to see that stuff right away while we have the car then I vote to do it Sunday. If not I can way a few days to settle and relax a bit first.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 1:56pm PDT

but that's more like the kinda beach trip that's easy to make on the spur of the moment. Long Beach is nice but it's not like the most picturesque beach or anything. if you wanna see some of the super cool and breathtaking stuff, we can drive to 'em.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 1:55pm PDT

there's a bus that's pretty easy for us to catch, so that's a good option too.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

it's a little under 2 miles, which isn't bad on a warm breezy day, but can be rough on a really hot one!

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardMonday, September 28, 2015 at 1:42pm PDT

Not particularly! Is the beach close enough to walk to?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

(or the next day for that matter?)

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

is there anything you wanna do that night?

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 12:51pm PDT

i'm reserving a zipcar to pick you up on saturday and i was wondering...

Nick MarinoMonday, September 28, 2015 at 12:50pm PDT

yo

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 8:43am PDT

Werd. Shanks :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 30, 2015 at 6:53am PDT

Great stuff. I'm out of town this weekend but I'll be sharing this link with Stique when I'm back :D

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardFriday, May 29, 2015 at 8:34am PDT

Thank you! I truly appreciate you guys support. Love and light to you both. I'll be sending updates!

Nick MarinoThursday, May 28, 2015 at 10:15pm PDT

Awesome, thanks!!!

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardThursday, May 28, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

-K

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardThursday, May 28, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

I appreciate you!

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardThursday, May 28, 2015 at 12:37pm PDT

Nick!! I hope this message finds you and Justique well and in good spirits! I'll be emailing her very, very soon with some of this same information. I am reaching out to you to ask for your support with a fundraising campaign just launched. I've been accepted into the Women's Art Institue at St. Catherine University here in St. Paul, MN. It is a 4 week intensive course filled with 13 lectures and time and space to develop my portfolio! Donations are welcome and shares are equally as valuable! No matter how you are able to support I'd love for you to know what I've been up to! So please, click the link and check me out.

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardSaturday, November 17, 2012 at 7:39am PST

So glad you sent me this....I've been struggling with the 80's!!! Thanks Nick! -K

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 17, 2012 at 7:37am PST

duuuuuuuuuuude are you gonna do any Patrice Rushen songs in your show in the spring? ya gotta!!! she's the best.

Kendra Vie Boheme DennardFriday, June 1, 2012 at 9:54am PDT

Thanks love! Ill look into it but I may be hibernating this summer.... I will keeping me posted :-)

Nick MarinoFriday, June 1, 2012 at 8:29am PDT

I know this is probably a ridiculous place to play a gig, but I thought about you when I saw this so I figured I'd send you a link: http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=391439930901630&id=138367866208839 Justique and I went there a week ago. It's a pretty fun place, bowling alley, arcade, etc. Like I said, ridiculous but maybe they're paying good $$$, I dunno!

Eddie Delaney, Nick Marino
Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Oh god...I'd fanboy WAYYYY too hard

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

i figure D or A might be at the show too

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:32pm PDT

Well, there are enough people selling trades, so I can be on the lookout for it. Thanks for reminding me

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

i dunno if boom even sells it at the booth anymore hahaha!

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

Sweet

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

yeah, it's a few years old now but it's the tits!

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

Staying with my friend in Brooklyn

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

That's the Abnett and Lanning joint, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:31pm PDT

where are you staying at?

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Definitely gives me something to start with. Trying to get my shopping out of the way on Thursday and Friday

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

did you ever read Hypernaturals from Boom?

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:30pm PDT

Haha, I understand, but thanks for the recommendations

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:27pm PDT

if i think of more i'll let you know! slowly, most of my friends are on the west coast so i know less and less peeps exhibiting on the east coast now

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Got it

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

v1 is good but it's not a complete story

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

Sweet

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

OH! I've heard of it and seen it around, but never read it. Good to know he's there. I'll add that to the list

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

they're labeled as v2 and v3 respectively, but you don't need to read v1.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:26pm PDT

his collections of G-Man: Cape Crisis and G-Man: Coming Home are AMAZING!

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

you ever read G-Man?

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

Chris Giarrusso is almost always in artist alley

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

OH

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

but lezzz see creators who might be there...

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

the creators are cool and the book is a pretty fun dealie with girls dealing brownies instead of drugs

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Yeah, I'll see what they have to offer...I figure if they're slinging your books they have good taste in talent

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

action lab also does a cool book called Nutmeg

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Well, if they do, I'm down for at LEAST one copy. Depends on how much drinking I'll have done when I get to 'em, hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

i dunno for sure, though! hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

i assume they'll have our TPB there

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Been itching to get a copy and check out your glory

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Oh, sweet! I can FINALLY get on that blasphemy ride

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

aside from Holy F*ck, you might also like their book Itty Bitty Bunnies

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

Aha, all good...anyone you know who usually shows up or is likely to? I'll do all the research to see if they will; I'm just in the market for new shit, and I trust your opinion on these things

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

my publisher will be there

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

by crew i mean friends

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:22pm PDT

most of my crew aren't going this year

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

i haven't been paying much attention to who's gonna be at NYCC this year...

Nick MarinoFriday, October 2, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

Eddie DelaneyFriday, October 2, 2015 at 12:54pm PDT

So my goal for NYCC is to buy as little mainstream shit as possible and go with more indie/web stuff, but because I'm obsessed with physical copies and shelf-pr0n, I need collected editions. Any recommendations of people you know are going who would be willing to take my money for sweet, sweet paperbacks?

Eddie DelaneyThursday, May 7, 2015 at 6:21pm PDT

Thanks man! :-D

Nick MarinoThursday, May 7, 2015 at 5:15pm PDT

loving all of the new art! you're killin it

Eddie DelaneyFriday, March 27, 2015 at 4:35am PDT

Yasssss

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 7:45pm PDT

Super Haters. ComiXology. April 1.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

i twill. as of right now, it looks like it'll probably be around the time of Awesome Con! haha

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:48am PST

Hell yaw! Hit me up when you're coming to town

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:48am PST

Heading up the last weekend of the month

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:34am PST

now that i'm on the west coast, i don't make it into philly as often... but i still try to go to the area once a year or so.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:33am PST

cool! when do you move?

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:18am PST

I'll be living in south philly, but I'll have a car, so I'm open to anything within 25 miles

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:10am PST

yeah, philly, right? what part of the area?

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:08am PST

I figured it'd be easier to find a job if I'm actually up there

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

Yeah

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

*We've been having meetings about the games we have in development and have a pretty steady release schedule for the next year. I'm pretty stoked

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:07am PST

Oh, and there are other game things around the corner, too. We

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

sounds like you got your plate full with these two upcoming games and then the third one that you're drawing the characters for now! that's so awesome. and you're looking for a new day job too?

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:05am PST

he does.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

Frankie seems like he's alright with a joke

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

True

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:04am PST

naw, this new pope is too chill. he'd be like "it's clearly a joke. and i like it"

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

hahahaha!

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Official condemnation from the Vatican! *Fingers crossed*

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

I was about to be like "WHAT HAPPENED THIS MORNING?!!?"

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Glad you're getting the press you deserve

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Fuck, my brain is not good today

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

*not this morning

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Again, I'm real glad you're getting the press this morning

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Thanks!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

I actually woke up this morning trying to figure out what projects I want to tackle next.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Lookin' forward to it

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

I

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

And some other small stuff here and there.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Oh, nice!

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

I WILL KEEP IT SECRET

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Otherwise, a graphic novel I've been working on for years now with a buddy of mine in Sweden.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:02am PST

Hahaha, nice!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:01am PST

Next? Another 4 issue mini called Holy F*cked. BUT YOU CAN'T TELL A SOUL... NOT EVEN YOUR OWN SOUL! It won't be officially out there / announced until Holy F*ck #4 is available.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:00am PST

YESSSS

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 11:00am PST

Maybe he'll play it AND then smoke it! Best of both worlds.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:58am PST

So what's next after Holy Fuck blows the comic world's dick off?

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:57am PST

*either reaction

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:57am PST

I'm cool with either

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:56am PST

Haha, yeah; I figure if we make the packaging ominous enough, he'll either check it out or try to smoke it.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:56am PST

Wanted to make sure you get the goods

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:56am PST

(Hate that you mailed it to him but love the game, that is.)

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:56am PST

Haha, nah, I feel you

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:56am PST

Yeah, dude, you totally hooked it up with DnF. I LOVE the work you did for that. I don't drink much anymore though, so, ya know.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:54am PST

THOSE BOTH SOUND AMAZING!!!! Grant's gonna love/hate it!

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:51am PST

Did I ever hook you up with a copy of DnF?

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:51am PST

And we have a 5-player game about nuclear destruction set on an alternate Earth with fictional countries

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:51am PST

We got a card game based on guessing and mysticism that we're gonna creepily send to Grant Morrison

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:50am PST

We actually got two more in the hopper before that that you might like, but they'll be out in about a month once we get all our legal shit straightened out.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:50am PST

i don't really do any table top gaming, but i'm gonna try that one out when it's done!

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:50am PST

Hell yaw!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:49am PST

as for the game, i'm fucking stoked!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:49am PST

hahaha well that's all good to know! i would just be at the publisher's booth, which is like 100% easier than having my own table, so i would probably feel like an attendee just as much as an exhibitor.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:44am PST

But I can safely say it's hella better than the "DC Comiccon" they tried to put up at George Mason, a college in VA 30-40 minutes away from DC

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:43am PST

Don't know about anyone who's tabled there

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:43am PST

I've heard nothing but good from people who attended

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:43am PST

Yeah, I think that's what they're building towards with AC

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:42am PST

Thanks! It actually spawns out of a thing I did for Peculiar. I had tried to turn this series of images into a card game, but put it on the back burner. Now my game makin' partners are helping me fine tune it. We've got a while till we put it out (like, a year, if everything goes well), but our main brain was basically all "Yeah, gonna develop the rules for those later. Make a shit ton of pictures." OKAY!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:39am PST

i've never even heard of awesome con (or i never paid attention to it) so i don't know much about its flavor. from the website, it seems like a big pop culture con, kinda like a mid-atlantic NYCC or SDCC. am i right about that?

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:38am PST

i'm IN LOVE with these new characters you're drawing. i can't wait to find out more about the project!!! but more importantly, i can't wait to see more characters.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:37am PST

thanks <blush>

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:36am PST

Glad your mad genius is bein appreciated

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:36am PST

Also, congrats on the success of holy fuck

Eddie DelaneyMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:35am PST

Haven't been because every year something pops up by I definitely wanna try

Nick MarinoMonday, February 2, 2015 at 10:31am PST

Have you ever been to Awesome Con in DC? My publisher is gonna be there so I'm thinking about going.

Eddie DelaneyWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 9:25pm PST

Cool! I'll take care of that tomorrow morning

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 8:36pm PST

Awesome!!! I'm so glad you're down. ComiXology asks for artist info when I submit the book. That means a photo (600 x 600 px) and a short bio. Here's mine for an example: https://www.comixology.com/Nick-Marino/comics-creator/36229

Eddie DelaneyWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 7:22pm PST

Oh damn, I'm totally down. Don't care about the money. Glad it turned out in that format too! Excited to see it in action.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 26, 2014 at 6:05pm PST

i ended up going with a panel-by-panel reading style. here's the result: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/07-kid-raptor.pdf (i recommend making the PDF full screen and then using the right arrow key to go page-by-page) i've selected seven Super Haters stories to test out the waters on ComiXology. they're all formatted to be read in that panel-by-panel only mode called Guided View Native. i'd like to submit the seven stories as one collected edition to ComiXology. i think a fair split is that each artist will get 10% of the profits and i'll keep everyone updated on our progress once the book is accepted and starts to sell. frankly, i don't expect the profits to be much! but it'll be cool to have our Super Haters story available on a big venue like ComiXology :D so what do you think... are you down with this? (FYI i think our story came out especially strong and i think it would be the perfect one to close out the collection.)

Eddie DelaneySaturday, November 15, 2014 at 4:24pm PST

Ah, womp womp

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 15, 2014 at 4:19pm PST

DUUUUUDE nevermind. I did a test run of what it would be like to have the balloons pop up one by one and it's just too tedious!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 15, 2014 at 12:37pm PST

thanks for checking!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 15, 2014 at 12:36pm PST

doesn't matter. as long as the balloons and text are separate from the art.

Eddie DelaneySaturday, November 15, 2014 at 12:35pm PST

I'm not sure how the files are set up, but I can check. Word balloons and text on one layer, or separate?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 15, 2014 at 12:19pm PST

i'm exploring my options for putting a Super Haters collection on comiXology. and i'd like to try and do the kind of comic where you swipe and the word balloons appear one by one.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 15, 2014 at 12:18pm PST

do you have a version of our Super Haters story with the lettering on a different layer from the art?

Eddie DelaneyFriday, March 7, 2014 at 11:24am PST

Hahaha, a little, as my output is not nearly as prolific as his, especially recently

Nick MarinoFriday, March 7, 2014 at 11:14am PST

in the process of getting Brian's number i had to text him anyway and he said he's gonna get in touch with you. frankly, i'm just confused now. haha BTW, speaking of Brian, seeing this Facebook conversation thread made me realize that i sent that minicomics article to you instead of Brian. OOOOPS! you musta been confused as hell by that.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 7, 2014 at 10:48am PST

looking it up!!

Eddie DelaneyFriday, March 7, 2014 at 9:01am PST

Hey! Weird question: do you have Brian's number? He's crashing at my place tonight for the show near me, and I need to make sure he knows where to park.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 27, 2014 at 4:07pm PST

you guys should collaborate! http://www.nola.com/mardigras/index.ssf/2014/02/cartoonist_caesar_meadows_make.html

Nick MarinoMonday, January 27, 2014 at 10:42am PST

i'll let you know!!!! :D

Eddie DelaneyMonday, January 27, 2014 at 10:40am PST

THANKS MAN! The response is pretty good so far, but not bombastic. Still, we've had randos find this, and it's not all people we know buying, so that's a good sign. If you decide to run a game, let me know how it goes. We tried to set up a system that anyone could jump into...and even those of us with RPG experience BUT without an attention span AND/OR under the influence of drugs/alcohol could play with.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 24, 2014 at 7:03pm PST

YOUR ART AND DESIGN FOR THIS PROJECT FUCKING ROCK!!!! I finally flipped through everything and even though I know nothing about RPGs, I was amazed by the prettiness of it. How's the response so far?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 16, 2014 at 6:34pm PST

glad to help!!!! AND I GOT MY OWN DOWNLOAD URL!!! yay! it works just fine.

Eddie DelaneyThursday, January 16, 2014 at 2:54pm PST

Hey man, thanks again for pointing us towards Gumroad. That's been a godsend. Here's dem books for ya! https://gum.co/xlNy/nickmarinorules Let me know if it works

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 7:44am PST

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm so glad it worked out. can't wait to see 'em.

Eddie DelaneyTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 7:25am PST

We're getting the final PDFs together for the launch Saturday, so I'll get you copies of our final PDFs later today :-D

Eddie DelaneyTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 7:25am PST

Thank you SOOOO much for the link to gumroad. Oh my god, that was so easy to use.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 1:10pm PST

okay, awesome!

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 1:03pm PST

Once we get everything set up, I'll get you a copy of our PDFs. I'm not sure if you're much of an RPG guy, but I think you'll have fun with the creative freedom of the system. (And a game might make interesting podcast content.)

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 1:01pm PST

Thanks! :-D

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:48pm PST

i will! i did a little more research and it's Etsy that added the new instant download feature.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:40pm PST

Thanks! If you stumble across anything else from back then, let me know

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:37pm PST

okay, cool. i'm getting the idea. to be honest, i'm a bit rusty. around this time last year when i was doing all of my PDF sales research, i found that there was no ideal system and i gave up and made my stuff free. but since then i've learned about http://gumroad.com/ and though i forget exactly which services offer it now, i know some of the Etsy / Big Cartel / 3rd party storefront companies started offering instant digital delivery. but as far as i know, there's no simple way to create digital delivery through a basic PayPal shopping cart. at least this time last year there wasn't an easy one that i could find which didn't require advanced programming.

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:19pm PST

All three PDFs would be somewhere between 50 and 100 megs

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:19pm PST

We need a way for them to be able to buy various individual PDFs or packages (through paypal or something else...any recommendations would be groovy)

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:18pm PST

Here's the website we'll be launching to sell the goods, at least initially: http://drunkardsandflagons.com/test

Nick MarinoMonday, December 23, 2013 at 12:14pm PST

Tell me more!!! What's the functionality you need? And how would it hog bandwidth?

Eddie DelaneyMonday, December 23, 2013 at 11:41am PST

So as you may know, I'm working with a coupla folks to put together a drinking RPG (Drunkards and Flagons). We're looking to initially release things via PDF, but not quite sure how without it being a bandwidth nightmare or take a lot of manual flipping of switches. I know you've worked with PDF distribution in the past; how can we get this done?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 6, 2012 at 4:27am PST

Hahahah good question!!! It's not an established thing. You can make that dong however long you want :D

Eddie DelaneyWednesday, December 5, 2012 at 6:11pm PST

So I'm trying to work more on the guest strips. Weird question: have you established whether or not Destruct-o-Tron is particularly well-hung or not? I want to make sure that a black bar peaking beneath a towel is accurate to your cannon.

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 15, 2012 at 1:54pm PDT

Ha! I have no clue

Eddie DelaneySaturday, September 15, 2012 at 10:40am PDT

Yo. Name five Pokemon (or evolutionary families). I'll bring you one of the prototypes for the way I wanna package the HPL Pokemon.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 14, 2012 at 6:24pm PDT

YO! I just got back from my trip yesterday and got my mail today. Your kickass envelope is in there!!! I can't wait to read it. THX SO MUCH!!! I'll let you know when I make to the post office for your stuff :)

I'll put in on the cake, and try to be there around that time. Good lookin' out, Marcel.

I'm usually not one to have money on me unfortunately, but I'll definitely send on the birthday wishes!

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 4:28pm PDT

Thanks, guys! And Mikey, I'll up-size the cake to make sure there's some left for you too! 8^)

Chris MaverickTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 2:15pm PDT

I'll kick in a couple bucks. Add me to a card or something if I don't see you.

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 2:14pm PDT

I'll probably stop by shortly after 1pm or so with the cake. If anyone wants to donate towards it and I'm not there, just give the money to Wayne and he'll make sure I get it.

David DeVeraTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 2:06pm PDT

A card or something sounds like a great idea, Marcel! Thanks for the heads up.

Harold BeharTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 2:03pm PDT

Marcel, count me in for the cake. What time are you stopping by with it?

Mikey WoodTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 2:00pm PDT

SPANKING MACHINE!

Oh wow, him AND Spider-Man turned 50 practically together! B|

Mark ZingarelliTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 1:20pm PDT

He's 50! Oh man, we gotta make a big deal about this! Even if he wants to downplay it.

Marcel Lamont WalkerTuesday, October 30, 2012 at 1:10pm PDT

***You don't have to reply to this message -- this is just a heads-up!*** Hey All - It recently came to my attention that last week saw our friend Geofferi Von Dora (a.k.a. Jeff who owns our beloved PHANTOM OF THE ATTIC) turn 50 years old! He downplayed this to the extreme, but I think at least a small fuss should be made over this milestone. If any of you are planning to visit PHANTOM tomorrow either for New Comic Book Wednesday or their Halloween ComicFest, maybe take a moment to let him know, or take a card in case he's not there or at the game store. I don't want to embarrass him or anything, but he does a LOT for Pittsburgh's comic-book creators and collectors, and it would be nice to show him some appreciation back. I've ordered a half-sheet cake, but send me a separate message if you'd like to go in on it with me and maybe get a bigger one. There's no obligation for that though -- just want to make sure we've gotten the word out! Thanks, friends! - Marcel

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, October 16, 2013 at 4:25pm PDT

heh, whoops, didn't even see this

Nick MarinoMonday, October 14, 2013 at 6:55pm PDT

hey just checking in and shooting you a reminder about getting me the stuff for this week's episode. dont forget i emailed u that filter file which will cut down on the noise in the recording!

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 5, 2013 at 1:38pm PDT

i figured it was! i just couldn't find it when i clicked around a bunch :D

Kenny Riot Jr.Saturday, October 5, 2013 at 1:24pm PDT

The end theme is in 78

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 5, 2013 at 1:21pm PDT

CRAP! Facebook doesn't wanna send you the image or the XML file I'm trying to give you. I'll email it to you right now.

Nick MarinoSaturday, October 5, 2013 at 1:20pm PDT

Dope. Thx for checking. I've attached an XML file which is the equalization filter I mentioned earlier. I've also attached an image showing you how you can easily and quickly import that file into your version of Audacity. - Go to the "Effect" menu and select "Equalization" - Then hit the "Select/Manage Curves..." button - That will open up the small window you see here on the right - Hit "Import" and select the AudioShocker.xml file As I mentioned a couple of days ago, you only want to run that AudioShocker equalization effect on the voices because it'll make the music sound empty. So just highlight all of the talking before you import the XML file and run the effect. I think you'll be pretty stoked with how that simple little filter makes the audio sound crisper and reduces the room noise / white noise / humming on the recording. Alternately, if this sounds like a massive headache to you, I'm glad to add in the themes exactly where you did if you send me the conversation and the intro theme edit as separate files. BTW, I didn't hear our end theme on the version of #78 you sent me. Is it in there? I searched for it in the recording but never found it (which is to say I may have fucked up hahaha).

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, October 4, 2013 at 4:18pm PDT

As long as we give them credit for the track, it's good

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, October 4, 2013 at 4:18pm PDT

Got a response to the special intro

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, October 4, 2013 at 4:13pm PDT

No prob

Nick MarinoFriday, October 4, 2013 at 8:14am PDT

oh the desktop API is being discontinued. bummer. thx for the heads up.

Nick MarinoFriday, October 4, 2013 at 8:09am PDT

WHAT?!?!?!

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:34pm PDT

So, apparently CallGraph won't work with Skype anymore come December

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:33pm PDT

OH YEAH

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:33pm PDT

damn, nice!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:27pm PDT

what's your address?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:26pm PDT

yeah, it's only on streaming on Amazon now, I think. they signed a deal with Viacom.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:20pm PDT

I meant to watch it when it was on Netflix, but then it got taken off

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:20pm PDT

That'd be dope

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:20pm PDT

sounding good. real good! and yeah that's the forever lineup for Animatic Attack! also... want me to send you the Avatar: The Last Airbender series? i've got all the episodes as AVIs, i can burn 'em on some discs for you.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 11:12pm PDT

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:43pm PDT

Nah, it's cool, since I already know WHAT to say, and the mic levels are at the right spot, it should be a breeze, this time

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:41pm PDT

i won't force you to do it. but since you're talking about meeting up with keits and giving out free game codes and stuff, there's a chance you'll have more listeners than usual. and i would hate for them to turn it off as soon as they hear all of the clipping. i can't speak for your computer, but it sounds pretty rough on mine.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:32pm PDT

hmmm...I guess I can re-record something for you real quick...

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:26pm PDT

???

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:12pm PDT

doesn't look like there's much i can do about the clipping. i'll post it as is if you want. but i personally think that it sounds really fuzzy / scratchy and listeners deserve a better quality recording.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:07pm PDT

probably just a perk of using google on google

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:07pm PDT

hmmm odd. i'm working on the audio now to see if i can smooth out some of the clipping.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 10:00pm PDT

(weird how in Chrome, you can send folders through drive, but if you use drive on firefox or something, you have to download an app for that)

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:59pm PDT

sent

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:59pm PDT

yeah, it just finished

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:59pm PDT

okay, cool. i just wanted to make sure that was all good. BTW you get the project folder for 77 on google drive yet?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:59pm PDT

so just go with that

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:58pm PDT

I state in 77 how HCC is back to bi-weekly

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:58pm PDT

oh nah, week after

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:57pm PDT

oh, as for dates.... when we were you hoping i'd run #78? because like i said before, i would rather not post two podcasts on the same day, and animatic attack is every other friday at the moment (and the next episode goes up on oct 11th).

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:56pm PDT

'cause they were in fight scenes

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:56pm PDT

I loosely refer to all of 'em in some way, they doubled as my notes for re-watching the movie

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:47pm PDT

hahaha yes!!!! that one rules! ton of good ones here. my big question is... which ones do you refer to in the episode? because those are the ones we should definitely post!

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:47pm PDT

out of context, it's just hilarious

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:46pm PDT

i didn't peek at 'em yet!!! i'm excited to look at them, though. so for #77 i also need the project folder. otherwise, the .aup doesn;t do anything. can you zip up the project folder with the .aup file? if not, we still have other options.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:33pm PDT

what'd you think of the screencaps for 78?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:33pm PDT

done

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:32pm PDT

dual convos

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:32pm PDT

oh shit, yeah, got sidetracked

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:25pm PDT

so what's the word on 77? are you still sending me the project file?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

That's understandable

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

i hear you, but i see it a bit differently. i think of it like it's quicker and simpler for you, and it's more predictable for me. where i'm coming from is that i think it would easier for us if you just focused on making the best possible content and conversation, and i can make sure that we're giving listeners the best possible audio.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:19pm PDT

and I'm like, "awww, damn."

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:18pm PDT

'cause it's like, "dude, just let me do it"

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:18pm PDT

I mean with editing

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:16pm PDT

i don't think 70+ episodes counts as failure ;)

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:14pm PDT

you didn't fail!!!

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:14pm PDT

I feel like I failed

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:14pm PDT

'kay

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:13pm PDT

honestly, if you're cool with, i'd like to add the themes into the shows from now on. if you could just send me your edited conversations that would be all i'd need. you can even tell at what time you want the themes. i can run the filter to reduce any noise and make sure the volume is cool.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

yeah

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

it was so long ago!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

it's possible it was.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

I remember you showing me something like that

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

or was it just a screencap with gauges?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

hahaha okay, no worries.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:11pm PDT

I don't even remember downloading a filter, though...

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:08pm PDT

the mono thing doesn't create extra noise. it just degrades the dynamic range of the audio.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:08pm PDT

there's just some noise on the recording. the filter i gave you will minimize the louder parts of that noise. or i'd be glad to edit the themes into it in the same places that you did and run that filter if you'll send me a version of the conversation without the themes.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:06pm PDT

'cause I think they both converted in mono

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:06pm PDT

nah, it won't do much.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:06pm PDT

well, maybe the iTunes redo will fix that

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:06pm PDT

k, well #78 could really, really benefit from it. it'll cut down on some of that white noise / room noise in the background. but you only wanna run that filter on the voices, not on the themes. if you run it on the themes they'll sound really fucked up.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:05pm PDT

lemme fix 'em now

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:05pm PDT

in iTunes, I only have to change like, two things...

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:04pm PDT

I've never even used it, actually...so whatever I sent you before that you said sounded great, never had the filter

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:04pm PDT

also, do you still run that audioshocker equalization filter in audacity?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:04pm PDT

well, outside of episode 77, nothing changed on the Audacity end

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:03pm PDT

also, make sure your exporting as stereo from audacity!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:03pm PDT

here ya go

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:02pm PDT

'kay

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:00pm PDT

i'll send you a screencap of the itunes settings. so much easier than typing it!

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:00pm PDT

no problem

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 9:00pm PDT

so I can just reconvert them to 320 stereo

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

*the

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

yeah, so I still have thw WAV files from Audacity, too

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

the higher quality the better. and i can just switch it to the final compression when i add all of the meta data.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

I've got NOTHING BUT TIME right now

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

'cause if that's what you need, I can fix it right now

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:59pm PDT

yeah, that's cool.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:58pm PDT

and that was fine?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:58pm PDT

cause for a while you were sending me 320 kbps stereo files

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:58pm PDT

'cause iTunes has updated like, 3 times already

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:58pm PDT

either I did, or it just reverted or something in an update

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:57pm PDT

so you switched to mono in itunes?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:57pm PDT

yeah, you can zip up the audacity files and send me that if you want.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:56pm PDT

yeah, still using iTunes

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:56pm PDT

so are you still using itunes to convert mp3s? i ask because of the mono thing.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:56pm PDT

would you like me to send you THAT?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:56pm PDT

so everything can be shifted around as necessary if you need to

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:56pm PDT

I think the themes are in, but I mean, I save as a project file

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:55pm PDT

if you want me to use it as is, you can send me the original recording without the themes and i'll see what i can do to smooth the fuzzing.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:55pm PDT

honestly, it's up to you.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:54pm PDT

well, what do you need me to do?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:54pm PDT

Damn, that sucks...

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:54pm PDT

i mean, everyone is different so it might be fine on your headphones / computer. it's super fuzzed out on mine though

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:53pm PDT

I stuttered a lot for some reason, and got something wrong and caught it mid sentence, so I chopped the audio

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:53pm PDT

plus, it was longer than what it ended up to be

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:53pm PDT

It didn't sound bad (to me) when I turned it down and listened to it again

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:52pm PDT

as for 77, the audio is jacked up by the maxed out mic! it's such a short one... why didn't you just rerecord it?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:51pm PDT

no rush. i appreciate it.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:51pm PDT

not a problem, man, I'll get right on it

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:50pm PDT

if you wouldn't mind finding out, that would be great.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:50pm PDT

*on the alcohollywood site

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:50pm PDT

they advertise the band on every episode, and there's a link to their bandcamp on their site, so I'm guessing yes?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:49pm PDT

does clint know the band?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:49pm PDT

well we've got two weeks before the episode even goes up, so how about I just get in touch with Clint about it before it goes up?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:48pm PDT

that's cool that you bought it, but buying it doesn't give us permission to use it, unfortunately. i'm not cool with using an indie band's song without their permission. i would hate to have to pull this episode in a year if they contacted me and said they didn't want us to use it.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:47pm PDT

('cause they talk over the track when they use it on their show)

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:46pm PDT

I didn't rip it from their show

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:46pm PDT

and I bought it from that band directly so I could use it

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:45pm PDT

I figured I'd give their podcast a nod

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:45pm PDT

that's what they use every time

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:45pm PDT

it's called "Live Oak" by A Giraffe

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:44pm PDT

that's fine... but what song is it? do they own it or is it copyrighted?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:44pm PDT

as for 78's theme...the jazz thing is the Alcohollywood theme

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:44pm PDT

I can just turn it up a bit...I ALWAYS keep the raw files

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:43pm PDT

look, the mono thing isn't a huge deal. it changes the quality of the themes and such, but the big problem with 77 is the crazy quiet voice!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:42pm PDT

i mean mono on the final mp3.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:42pm PDT

no, it wasn't. haha

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:42pm PDT

split mono, though

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:42pm PDT

never did mono. was always stereo...

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:42pm PDT

'cause that was how you told me to do it from the very beginning

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:41pm PDT

Are you not doing Mono anymore?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:41pm PDT

I still have the originals

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:41pm PDT

my laptop was low, but the recording was loud

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:41pm PDT

I was wearing headphones on the playback

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:41pm PDT

dude you gotta open up the version of #77 that you sent me! it's insane how far you turned it down. hehehe also, why mono?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:40pm PDT

I turned 77 down because when I recorded it through Audacity, I didn't realize the Mic setting was maxxed out.

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:38pm PDT

also, the audio on the version of #77 you gave me... unusual. hahaha. the voice is crazy quiet. did you turn it way down? also, it's in mono. speaking of mono, so is #78. what's the deal with that? plus, the weird jazz theme? what song is it?

Nick MarinoThursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:28pm PDT

this is cool!!! but i'm a little confused... is #78 supposed to be for Oct 18th? and what about this next one you're doing about Fighting Vipers? when are you hoping to run that one?

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 8:17pm PDT

I should be recording another one sometime next week about Fighting Vipers

HCC will be back with a new episode on October 4th!"

Nick MarinoFriday, September 13, 2013 at 8:13am PDT

cool, thx. just posted it.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, September 12, 2013 at 9:19pm PDT

gonna just send you the raw file...we recorded later than I wanted to, so I don't have time to edit it, 'cause I gotta get up early in the morning...

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, July 30, 2013 at 1:30am PDT

BOOM!

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, July 11, 2013 at 2:04am PDT

Man, my schedule is really fucking with my podcasting ability. Time for a change in my life...

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 11:02am PDT

Whenever the three of us can sync up and do it. For me, the best time would be a weekend, since I always have those off, and even if I choose to work a Saturday, I won't be home stupidly late

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 3, 2013 at 7:14am PDT

hehe yeah i know Warzard. i've got a copy of it for my CPSIII emulator. IT SUCKS!! hahaha. at least, i thought it sucked when i played it a few years ago. i got it because i saw Hydron in Fighting Evolution... his character design was so cool and i wondered if that meant Red Earth would be sweet. when are you interested in recording this episode?

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:30am PDT

http://www.fightersgeneration.com/games/warzard.html

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:29am PDT

While one of the other playable characters appears in two other games, "SVC Chaos" and "Super Gem Fighter" / "Pocket Fighter"

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:24am PDT

4 characters from that game do re-appear in the awful Capcom Crossover game, "Capcom Fighting Evolution"...but it's not the 4 playable characters. Two of them make it, but two of the enemy characters also become playable.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:23am PDT

There's only 4 selectable characters that you kinda power up as you play the game. You fight these weird ass creatures, fighting game style, until you get to the final boss

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:22am PDT

It's a Capcom CPSIII fighting game, of sorts (the first to use that chip, actually) which has a similar vibe to Hippodrome in that it's a more single player focused game in a fantasy setting

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:21am PDT

In other news, That episode you did with Jason gave me an idea to do one about "Warzard" / "Red Earth". Potentially with you AND him

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:20am PDT

Gonna have to skip an upload this week, however, I'm gonna get some recording done this weekend. Figured out how I wanna go about the Texas shit...

Nick MarinoMonday, July 1, 2013 at 9:53am PDT

yeah, your headset does click a little, but it's not terrible. the weird thing about moving the volume sliders up is that you'll never hear it fuzzing out... you only hear it get louder. but when you export it, you'll see the difference. also, keep an eye out for the little volume meter, which should display red rectangles if the audio is turned up too loud.

Kenny Riot Jr.Monday, July 1, 2013 at 3:47am PDT

I barely put it up only to offset the track I played while we were talking. I always have headphones on when I edit, but it didn't really sound much louder. I did notice a clicking noise while I was talking, but that was there even before I did anything and I think it's my damn headset, which is annoying because I don't hear that shit at all when I'm actually recording. So, when it comes time to edit, it's like, "SURPRISE!" and I'm like, "ugh."

Nick MarinoSunday, June 30, 2013 at 7:33pm PDT

did you turn up the volume on voice tracks with the sliders? that's what it looks like to me. a good rule of thumb is to never use those sliders to make the volume higher on voice tracks, only to make things lower. instead, highlight the entire track and use the "amplify" option in the effects menu to turn things up. that effect tells you how much space you have until the volume is at 0. optimally, the volume on an individual voice track should peak at -1 to -.5. while the volume on this particular episode peaks and fuzzes a lot, i don't think it's so bad that it needs to be re-edited. just a thing to watch out for in the future. also, feel free to ask me any questions about audio stuff. i'm always glad to help.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 28, 2013 at 10:37am PDT

I still have the raw file (I always save the raw file), so I can put it down and send you that if you want.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 28, 2013 at 10:36am PDT

nor did it sound weird

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 28, 2013 at 10:35am PDT

That's weird...it didn't look like that when I was working on it.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 28, 2013 at 7:19am PDT

DUDE YER KILLIN ME OVER HERE!!! I need you to send me this on Wednesday night, not Thursday night. It takes more time to put together a podcast post than you might think. Also, what's going on with the audio? Did you raise the levels in Audacity so it came out all crazy like this? Or did it actually record like this? Basically, it's constantly clipping (hitting the max volume level) so there's distortion on most of the conversation.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 28, 2013 at 3:29am PDT

"Episode 74: Patriot Apocalypse - The BlazBlue Blowout (so far) HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!

My bad, I was at work. Been putting in over time all week (My work hours are 3:30 PM to Midnight Monday through Friday, normally, but with Overtime, I get out at 2 AM Central. It's about an hour to get home, though...so I'm not in the door until at the earliest, 10 minutes to 3 AM or so.)

do you have a podcast for me?

Nick MarinoWednesday, June 26, 2013 at 2:08pm PDT

k, cool.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 11:18am PDT

I gotta do a little bit of editing to the longer episode I recorded over the weekend, but I'm gonna be sending that one to you for this weeks posting.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 21, 2013 at 8:01am PDT

hahaha nice. good luck!

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 21, 2013 at 2:17am PDT

Skippin' this week. Got a mad recording session jumpin' off on Sunday. Gonna have like, 3 episodes done in a day.

Nick MarinoFriday, June 14, 2013 at 8:20am PDT

thx for saying!! i'm not worried about that stuff, anyway. i just want it to be something that's a positive force in your life. if there's anything i can do to help out, lemme know.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, June 14, 2013 at 7:50am PDT

Oh, yeah, my remark about HyperComboCast frustrating me, has absolutely nothing to do with you, the day it airs, or anything else on AudioShocker's end, so don't think you're doing anything wrong because you're not.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, June 13, 2013 at 11:37am PDT

oooooooh

Nick MarinoThursday, June 13, 2013 at 7:56am PDT

Thx so much!! I really appreciate that :D The Podcast Verite theme is from a song that's actually really old!! Recorded back in 2004. I just decided to hold it for the second album.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, June 13, 2013 at 2:05am PDT

Also, the new theme for "Kaylie and Nick" goes so hard. I can't wait to hear your new EP, 'cause with this, and the theme for Podcast Verite, it sounds like you've evolved your sound quite a bit.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, June 13, 2013 at 2:04am PDT

I was gonna try to record my Texas episode soon, as well. Been working overtime now...

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, June 13, 2013 at 2:04am PDT

Oh, cool

Nick MarinoSunday, June 9, 2013 at 3:06pm PDT

yo! i'm planning a HyperComboCast for this Friday. and i haven't logged into the Twitter account yet but i will soon.

but then I got screwed out of going

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, May 28, 2013 at 4:47am PDT

I wasn't going to because I was SUPPOSED to go to UFGT9 and then I was going to podcast about that

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 22, 2013 at 12:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 9, 2013 at 11:59am PDT

i saw on the HyperComboCast page that you were planning an episode for tomorrow. is that still happening? if so, it would be super cool if you could get it to me soon!! also, my cousin and i are gonna be recording about Deadliest Warrior this weekend and i'm planning to run that episode on Fri, May, 17.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 3:17pm PDT

Cool.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 29, 2013 at 5:40am PDT

Stique and I were gonna get Injustice this weekend but we changed our minds! our trip back to Pittsburgh to clear out our storage space was crazy expensive so I'm trying to save money wherever I can right now. we're gonna wait to pick it up until the price drops to $40 or something like that. SORRY!! anyway, feel free to bust out a solo cast about it or bring on a guest. i'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts :D also, my cousin and i have a HyperComboCast planned for the near future (probably the May 10th episode). a couple of months ago we both got Deadliest Warrior from the PSN, so we're gonna talk about that.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 25, 2013 at 9:26am PDT

okay, cool, let's lock it down early next week.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 24, 2013 at 6:18pm PDT

Cool. I'm too busy this week to record... You down for next week?

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 4:36pm PDT

I've played enough of it to really talk about it now

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 4:34pm PDT

Have you picked it up, yet?

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 4:34pm PDT

Dope shit!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 18, 2013 at 1:04pm PDT

Justique saw some gameplay today and now she's psyched for it hahaha so I guess this game has some good mass appeal going on because I have another friend who NEVER plays fighting games but he got the iPad version and loved it

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:07pm PDT

have't gone online at all, either.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:07pm PDT

I haven't done any of the S.T.A.R. missions yet, though. I'm gonna fuck with that a bit, today.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:06pm PDT

(if you're good, it'll take you about 4 hours)

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:05pm PDT

Not even that hard, either...I think I only lost like, three fights the whole time.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:04pm PDT

Cool. I already beat the Story mode...it wasn't bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:03pm PDT

Interesting. Yeah, I'm gonna get the console game in a week or two, so I'll link up then.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:02pm PDT

something about the WBID

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:02pm PDT

and a costume for Flash

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:02pm PDT

Pictures for your profile, and stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:02pm PDT

Nice! Like what?

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:02pm PDT

They seem to work together, but the only person I know playing the mobile game is you. However, since you're planning on getting the game yourself, I dunno if you want to just link up with your own copy, or link up with mine

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:01pm PDT

and the Mobile game unlocks things in the console version.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:00pm PDT

Yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 17, 2013 at 6:16am PDT

Oh shit so you can earn points for the mobile game from the console version??

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, April 16, 2013 at 9:54pm PDT

one is for the game, and then there a mobile points tally

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, April 16, 2013 at 9:54pm PDT

on Mobile...I just finished a fight (After spending a lot of time in training mode) and I got this score tally

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, April 16, 2013 at 9:53pm PDT

looks like Console Injustice can be linked to the card game

Nick MarinoMonday, April 15, 2013 at 7:08am PDT

Yeah, I'm def gonna pick it up... but not this week because I'm going to Pittsburgh on Wednesday the 17th, so I wouldn't really get any time to play it before I left. I'll probably snag it in a week or two. That's a pretty good description of the mobile game. Fighting felt really secondary to collecting characters and getting points.

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, April 14, 2013 at 11:17pm PDT

different from the KoF or SF4 mobile games, in that it doesn't try to play like a fighting game, but rather a card game

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, April 14, 2013 at 11:16pm PDT

the mobile game sounded interesting, though

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, April 14, 2013 at 11:16pm PDT

Were you going to pick up Injustice? I plan to get it so It can be discussed on the podcast.

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 1:58pm PDT

Damn...this is apparently a HyperComboCast curse

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 27, 2013 at 8:28am PDT

as far as i know, it would only record to the pre-designated spot. if you're not seeing it, then my guess is that it didn't record. SORRY!! i've definitely lost my share of recordings, both with Call Graph and other programs, so i feel your pain. with Call Graph, you always need to check the system tray icon before you hit record. ya gotta make sure there's a green check mark over the Call Graph icon. if not, it's not ready to record and you have to quit it, restart Skype, and open everything again. if it's a red check mark, then it won't record (or record correctly). that typically happens if your Skype call was dropped a few times. personally, i would disable the auto-record function and hit the record button yourself to ensure recording. but that's just me. i don't trust auto anything on my computer.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:25pm PDT

go fucking figure...

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:25pm PDT

everything else is accounted for except our longest uninterrupted session

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:24pm PDT

and I have it set to auto record as soon as a call starts

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:24pm PDT

because if not, there's an entire hour of conversation that DID NOT RECORD

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:24pm PDT

is there any other spot that Call Graph might put a file?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 9:23pm PDT

okay, I'm freaking the fuck out right now

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:39pm PDT

okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:39pm PDT

nah, it's cool. i gots it!! it's super quick for me! takes me like five mins, if that. barring any tweaks to the audio. plus, i already got the first part.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:37pm PDT

If you want, it's not like I don't have the time.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:36pm PDT

you can just send me the parts separately without putting the themes in. i'll take care of it ;)

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:32pm PDT

cool, I'll patch it together and send it to you when we're done.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:30pm PDT

yeah, i hear what you mean but i think it's fine. he's still popping the mic (a.k.a. pushing out a lot of air towards the mic when he talks) just like he used to do with the headset, but it's better now because the phone mic does a better job of minimizing the effect. a good trick you can share with him to avoid that sound he's making is to have the mic (hahaha or in this case phone) above his mouth instead of below it. most people push air down instead of up when they talk. poor John.... i just don't think he has a radio ready voice / style of speaking!!! he pops the mic more than anybody i've ever heard! hahahaha anyway, i think this is okay. send over the rest!

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:22pm PDT

I bring it up then

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:22pm PDT

just go from the beginning

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:21pm PDT

okay, should i start from the beginning? or somewhere else early on?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:20pm PDT

yeah, it's the first part of our convo, but you'll hear it early on

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:20pm PDT

okay, it's sent

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:20pm PDT

this is just a snippet, right?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:19pm PDT

no problem

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:17pm PDT

if it stood out, it's worth mentioning. thx for letting me know!!

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:16pm PDT

it just stood out to me because I noticed it

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:16pm PDT

it's just there's this slight crinkle and not really all that loud

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:15pm PDT

the phone is nowhere near his head and it's picking him up great

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:15pm PDT

k, cool.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:15pm PDT

I'm uploading as we speak

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:13pm PDT

he might just be talking too loud or too into the phone. that crinkly sound is probably his voice overloading the mic.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:13pm PDT

i understand. well, send something over and i'll check it out!

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:12pm PDT

yeah, but it's like there's a weird crinkly sound when he talks sometimes

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:11pm PDT

yeah, Neal did that for tomorrow's podcast. sounds pretty decent if the cell signal is good.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:10pm PDT

he SOUNDS a lot better

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:10pm PDT

a smart phone with skype

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:10pm PDT

nah, he is using some new shit

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 7:51pm PDT

*is it sorry typo!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 7:51pm PDT

sure send it on over!!! it is John's crappy mic again??? ;)

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 7:19pm PDT

actually, I can send you the first part of our recording...

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 7:10pm PDT

No problem. I need you to listen to this when we're done...I'm unsure about something in the sound and I REALLY don't want to get this episode denied.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 26, 2013 at 6:45pm PDT

Cooooooooooooooooooooool. Thx for the update!

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 5:03pm PDT

John and I are going to try to record somethin' tonight, so I should have somethin' tomorrow.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 22, 2013 at 9:15pm PDT

There's also talk of an indie fighting game called Battle High: Elemental Revolt, and a possible new twitter account."

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at 11:18pm PDT

had to do some real editing there! (just snip out some extra words and shit...it still sounds fine)

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at 11:17pm PDT

it's finally done

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at 11:17pm PDT

A'ight

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 13, 2013 at 4:50pm PDT

okay cool

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at 1:05pm PDT

I'll have your episode later tonight...I kinda had to wait for Darkstalkers Resurrection to drop for 360...we get digital games a day after PS3 users do, and it didn't even show up until 6 AM central. I'm going to talk a little about a couple other games and shit, but I did want to have an initial opinion of this Darkstalkers port, too.

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 6, 2013 at 10:45pm PST

awesome!!!!

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 6, 2013 at 10:30pm PST

HAHAHA!

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 6, 2013 at 9:17pm PST

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, March 6, 2013 at 8:35pm PST

Same time as before

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 6, 2013 at 6:33am PST

k. what time?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 8:10pm PST

That works.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 5, 2013 at 10:56am PST

I love that game so fucking much!!! BUT I haven't played it in months (maybe a year) and I'd like to brush up before I talk about it. And I don't have time to do that before tomorrow :( What about Thursday?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 10:48am PST

speakin'-o-which...wanna talk about World Heroes Tomorrow?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 2:57am PST

Yeah, I can work with that

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 2, 2013 at 8:14am PST

I forgot to mention!! If we're moving the HyperComboCast day to Fridays, I'll need to get your audio and show notes from you by the end of the day on Wednesdays. You cool with that?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 24, 2013 at 8:06am PST

OHMMMM

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 1:18am PST

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 1:18am PST

Ohm yeah

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 23, 2013 at 6:22pm PST

k, so are we on for Weds at noon as of right now?

Kenny Riot Jr.Saturday, February 23, 2013 at 10:41am PST

Injustice. I haven't watched the SF movie in forever, so I need to get on that.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 23, 2013 at 9:30am PST

Okay, that sounds good to me. What's first? Injustice or SF movie?

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, February 22, 2013 at 10:11pm PST

with my current work schedule, I should be good at 2 PM (noon for you) or earlier on Wednesday or Thursday. I'm off on Fridays so if something comes up before then, we can reschedule for that and any time would be good.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 22, 2013 at 9:22pm PST

I'm down for both. Sound like good topics to me. When do you want to record? The earliest I'm free to record is Wednesday.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, February 22, 2013 at 8:13pm PST

Alright, it's about that time I got back to recording shit. I wanted to ask if you'd be interested in coming on for a couple episodes. One of them is about the upcoming "Injustice: Gods Among Us" DC fighting game, and what you thought about what we've seen so far...and another one, potentially with Alex, about Street Fighter The Movie (Yes, actually talking about the JCVD movie this time, and not just things that spun off from it). Hit me up!

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, January 18, 2013 at 1:14pm PST

Cool, I'll give it a shout in the next episode

They run through the ups and downs of both games, and who they'd like to see in a theoretical third entry to the series."

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 8, 2013 at 1:24am PST

Riiiiight, the 2013 one!! I always forget to make the new one until it's time to use it.

Kenny Riot Jr.Monday, January 7, 2013 at 4:51pm PST

Also, a 2013 outro needs to be made...or somethin'

Kenny Riot Jr.Monday, January 7, 2013 at 4:47pm PST

That's cool. I just finished recording it. It's another music episode, but WAY SHORTER than the Tekken one that I did.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 6, 2013 at 3:46pm PST

Sweet. I probably won't be able to post it it until next week. Finally got an apt but no Internet :(

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 1:41pm PST

but it's a lead-in to the episode he and I were going to do.

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 1:41pm PST

but not as big 'cause it only spans like, 2 games

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 1:40pm PST

gonna be another mixtape episode like the Tekken one

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 1:40pm PST

I have a backup plan, though

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 1:40pm PST

Crap...live recording didn't jump off

Kenny Riot Jr.Saturday, January 5, 2013 at 1:40pm PST

Alex and I plan to do a live recording tonight.

And hit up A-Rival's bandcamp page to pick up the soundtrack! (which you'll also hear some clips of in this episode!) (Corrections: So, for some odd reason, I said the "weapon demo screen" theme was Dan's theme from Alpha 2. That's not right...it's actually the character select theme from Street Fighter Alpha 2.

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, December 23, 2012 at 12:43pm PST

Broke-ass tactics. I know how that goes...

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 11, 2012 at 2:56pm PST

I'm sorry that last time hit you so hard. A year in review sounds cool. I did move. Right now, I'm at Stique's mom's place in TX until we get our LA place lined up. And she doesn't have Internet, so when you record your next episode, I need the file on Saturday because I have to go download it somewhere with free WIFI!!!! Then I'll go back on Monday and post it.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 12:51pm PST

Also, did you move?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 12:51pm PST

the last rejection rubbed me wrong (not because of you) so I just took a break out of frustration.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 12:50pm PST

gotta bring the podcast back, 'cause peeps are getting worried

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 12:50pm PST

I'm thinking of doing a year in review kind of episode...I'll go solo

Kenny Riot Jr.Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 1:58pm PST

Everyone had headphones.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 18, 2012 at 10:47am PST

IMO, it's essentially unusable.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 18, 2012 at 10:46am PST

Amenta's doing that thing again where he's breathing into the mic and popping it whenever he talks. It's probably too close to his mouth or in some other bad position or it's just a shitty mic. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about that in post-production. There's also that joystick noise going on. And there's a slight echo... maybe someone isn't using headphones? (My guess is it's Kurt.) Sadly, I don't think there's anything I can do to save this recording :( SORRRRRYYYY!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 16, 2012 at 10:37am PST

I'm glad to listen to whatever. Also, you can take a screencap of the soundwaves in Audacity and I can tell you if it looks like anything I've encountered before that might have an easy fix.

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, November 16, 2012 at 6:12am PST

You wanna give it a quick listen? There were three of us. I was fine, Kurt was fine (though he had background noise because he was sharing the family room with his father, and there's some joystick noise. Nothing overpowered him, but I tried to get him to take it easy on that shit). John was the one with the issues. His mic made him sound muffled a bit. It was really bad before we got started for real, but was alright for the rest of recording.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 15, 2012 at 5:29pm PST

audio problems suck!!! if ya need any help with it, lemme know.

Kenny Riot Jr.Thursday, November 15, 2012 at 4:21pm PST

Got an episode recorded, but I still need to edit it. Gonna take more time with this because I'm concerned about the audio...we were having problems before we really "got down to business"

Virginia ShieldsTuesday, November 6, 2012 at 6:25am PST

I can do tomorrow at 1 or earlier

Shawn AtkinsMonday, November 5, 2012 at 2:32pm PST

Your right it would be a hard sell to go way outta the way I'll get steph to drop me off. Oh when did everyone wanna do art this week

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:53pm PST

I've been talking to Brian about the lunch through email and I'm gonna be riding there with him. You can shoot him a message and ask him if he wants to snag you. But I think it might be a tough sell since he's all the way on the North Side and not familiar with this area at all!

Shawn AtkinsMonday, November 5, 2012 at 12:07pm PST

I want to go too buck i might not have the car or at least a ride back I will gladly pay for lunch if someone wants to pick me up. sorry for the lack of cooth.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 5, 2012 at 11:13am PST

Are you going to the lunch tomorrow? I wanna go but I have to be back here by 230 for a Skype call so I'm not sure. Also, art this week?

Nick Marino, Karina Zhang
Nick MarinoMonday, April 30, 2012 at 5:22pm PDT

thx!

Karina ZhangMonday, April 30, 2012 at 4:48pm PDT

hey, sorry I just saw this today. just incase this happens again my number is 3025301105

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 28, 2012 at 11:12pm PDT

yo, Stique's not picking up her phone or texting me back... is she with you? i just wanna know if i should be worried or not!!!

Dan Greenwald, Nick Marino, Brandon 'Link' Millward
Nick MarinoSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 10:28am PDT

I'll message Mongo and Scott about it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 10:28am PDT

Yeah, that shit gets pretty expensive pretty fast. The Podcast Arena table is cheap, but getting a hotel room and traveling adds up.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 9:06am PDT

Ughhh vet bills. That shit is rough, especially when the payoff is way less than optimal.

Dan GreenwaldSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 8:59am PDT

I'd love to go but financially I can't swing it this year. Between Humphrey's vet bill & the body work my car needs, we're budgeting a lot so I'm pretty sure Mary would divorce my ass if I took off for NYC for three days. I'll pass it along to Scott though, maybe he'd be interested.

Brandon 'Link' MillwardSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 8:42am PDT

Every year I want to go to NYCC and I think every year it falls on a blackout week. I'd have to check with work on this. But, if anything Mongo might be interested in representing YIBR, since he's in NJ and like basically right next to NYCC, I think he just has to catch a train or trolly or subway or some sort of bus like thing on rails to get there.

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 11, 2012 at 6:56am PDT

NYCC is Oct 11-14 this year, and it looks like I'll have the opportunity to exhibit in the Podcast Arena again. I was wondering if either (or both!) of you would be interested in sharing the table with me. There are two ways we could do it. The first one is that you guys could just come out with me and chill at the table. Yamagato and CBP wouldn't be on the NYCC website or materials, but you could rep your shows at the table and do interviews, etc. The other way would be for me to talk to my contact and see if we could make it an official split, with your info in the program and on the website, so that way you can do a big promotional push before the show and yadda yadda. The only catch with this is that I think only two podcasts can officially split a table, so it would be AudioShocker and then one of your shows. None of this is a 100% given yet... I just wanted to offer it to you before I told my contact that I'd be willing to split a table this year.

Brad De Rocher, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 9:37am PDT

k

Brad De RocherWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 7:51am PDT

It should not be that much harder then skype. I know the program cuts to who is talking automatically. Anyone who works digitally will not need a web cam and if you work on paper you just need a webcam on a arm to hang over your drawing board. I'll look into google hangouts.

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 7:44am PDT

Interesting! I dig the idea. I don't know much about Google Hangouts or how that kind of video podcasting works, but as of right now I'd like to learn more about being involved.

Brad De RocherWednesday, August 13, 2014 at 6:30am PDT

Nick, I have an idea for a new project and want to know if you would be interested. The Idea is a weekly or bi-weekly google hangout video show. However the camera will be focused on the work artists and writers are working on at the time. We can talk about the work as it is being worked on. It could also work as one week as a art show and the next a writers show. Let me know what you think.

Brad De RocherThursday, April 17, 2014 at 5:23pm PDT

Glad you liked it. Though I am going to keep these in stock. I am going to break the book up into 4 books. I think the price point is way to high for shows like MoCCa.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 17, 2014 at 3:51pm PDT

I LOVE THE NEW PRINTING MONARCH MONKEY!!! The textures just pop off the page. Awesome. It's so much fun tearing through the story.

Brad De RocherMonday, August 12, 2013 at 11:10am PDT

That's fine, I should be gearing up for Mice that week so I will still be in the mood to talk cons.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 12, 2013 at 11:08am PDT

so our next episode of sequential underground won't be for another month and a half, but it's gonna be a convention episode. we have to record it on the night of Sunday Sept 22. i know it's kinda far away, but do you think you'd be available to join us?

Brad De RocherMonday, August 5, 2013 at 8:03am PDT

Great, I had some good, bad and weird experiences this weekend. I made about $160 so all and all it was a good show.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 5, 2013 at 7:44am PDT

okay, cool! i'll let you know for sure.

Brad De RocherMonday, August 5, 2013 at 4:11am PDT

Nick, next time you do a show about cons let me know. I was at Boston Comic Con this weekend and have some thoughts about selling work at the shows.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 16, 2013 at 4:51pm PDT

Okay!! Great. Couple of things to ensure audio quality: make sure you've got headphones on when we're Skyping, and also try to make sure you're sitting somewhere with minimal noise (avoid being too close to stuff like radiators, fridges, other stuff that hums loudly, and watch out for rooms that echo a lot, etc.). I know that kinda goes without saying but sometimes people don't think about these things ahead of time! Also, do you have a PDF of your comics or something similar that I could share with my co-hosts? If you do, you can email it to nickmarino@gmail.com. Finally, here's more info about the comics my co-hosts make (just in case you haven't already checked out their stuff!): - Dan Greenwald, Blue Wraith: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Blue-Wraith/246937535331382 - Shawn Atkins, Explorers of the Unknown: http://www.facebook.com/ExplorersoftheUnknown - Shawn Atkins, Gello Apocalypse: http://www.facebook.com/GelloApocalypse

Brad De RocherSaturday, March 16, 2013 at 1:58pm PDT

Sure that would be cool.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 16, 2013 at 12:24pm PDT

Okay, I've waited long enough for a response from my other potential guest... Would you still be able join us to record this Tues Mar 19th at 8 EST?

Brad De RocherFriday, March 15, 2013 at 4:14pm PDT

Thanks

Nick MarinoFriday, March 15, 2013 at 2:44pm PDT

hey!! just letting you know that the wheels are still are still turning. i didn't forget!!

Brad De RocherFriday, March 8, 2013 at 6:36pm PST

My full name is Bradford Douglas DeRocher Jr, so I mostly go by Doug but for things like facebook and E-mail I use my first name. Any week is ok for me just let me know.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 8, 2013 at 6:24pm PST

Cool, I think my co-hosts have a topic they want to talk about for March 19th (they emailed me about it right before I was about to email them about having you on the show!), so maybe it would be better to have you join us on April 2nd. But I'm not sure yet!! That's why I haven't emailed you. I'll keep you updated on the developments. Also, you gotta explain your name to me!! Cause your FB account is Brad but all of your art stuff is Doug, and to be honest with you I can't remember what name you used when you introduced yourself to me at NYCC.

Brad De RocherThursday, March 7, 2013 at 11:46am PST

Nick I just set up a Skype account.

Brad De RocherMonday, March 4, 2013 at 9:58am PST

brad_derocher@yahoo.com

Nick MarinoMonday, March 4, 2013 at 9:58am PST

Skype. What's your email address again?

Brad De RocherMonday, March 4, 2013 at 8:58am PST

That would be cool. Do you use skype or do I just call in?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 4, 2013 at 8:56am PST

Hi Brad!! I definitely remember you :) Thx for getting in touch. We should definitely record an episode of SU together! We've already got a topic locked down for this week, but how about in two weeks? Our next recording time will be 8:30 pm EST on Tues March 19. Would that work for you?

Brad De RocherMonday, March 4, 2013 at 8:41am PST

Nick, I don't know if you remember me, but I meet you a NYCC and expressed interest in doing a episode of Sequential Underground. I make the cut paper collage comic Monarch Monkey. I still listen to the podcast and think its one of the best about the process of making comics. If you are interested in let me know.

The Edge, Nick Marino
The EdgeWednesday, July 25, 2012 at 10:25am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 25, 2012 at 10:24am PDT

I don't think he lists his art for sale anywhere on his site... Probably the best way to reach him is thru deviantART if you have an account there. http://mooncalfe.deviantart.com/ Otherwise, you can tweet him (@mooncalfe) or just message him here on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/mooncalfe

Ryan HosiassohnFriday, June 15, 2012 at 12:34pm PDT

Hey Nick, Hows it going ? Sorry might be easier to msg you directly :). Do you know his personnel website where he has his art ect for sale ? Thanks Ryan

Hello Friends! Sorry for the mass message. I promise this will be the first and last! Some of you may already know, but Bryan and I are planning to sell our house and move out of Pittsburgh in the summer. (We still don't know the details, but we'll make sure to share them once we have them!) In the meantime, we are preparing our house to put it in the market. So we want to get rid of some items that we no longer need (or we never used!), but that are still in good conditions. We decided to have our friends take a look at them, before we offer them on Craigslist. Below is a link to all the items with pictures and their prices. We will continue to update the page in the next few weeks. So stay tuned if you do not see something you like at the moment! http://www.pitt.edu/~bwr6/misc/sale/ Send me a separate inbox if you are interested in something! Thank you! Alma and Bryan P.S. Yes, you are seeing right. We threw in a picture of our foster cat. She is available to go to a loving home, so we said: Why not!?

Nick Marino, Corey Wittig, Nate Kristofer Buccini McDonough
Nick MarinoMonday, July 16, 2012 at 9:05am PDT

Very cool. I'll send out an email right now. I'll copy everyone on it :D

Corey WittigMonday, July 16, 2012 at 9:03am PDT

Hey, Guys, I just got a call from a Pitt professor named Anna Redcay--she's teaching a class at Pitt in the fall on the graphic novel and is interested in possibly collaborating with you guys and Out of the Gutter. I told her I'd pass her e-mail along; would you guys mind getting in touch? Her address is amredcay@gmail.com. If she'd like to partner in some official capacity please let me or whoever your first floor library contact is and we can get things moving along. And if it's not something you're interested in feel free to let her know. Thanks again for taking charge and doing such a great job. (And best of luck again tonight--tickets for a show so I'm MIA once again.) Best, Corey

I'm good on the 1st. Maybe the 2nd.

Andrew ChariparMonday, October 22, 2012 at 4:59pm PDT

Just let me know when you want to do it and I'd love to tag along. Pretty much any day (except for the 31st) works for me (might be a little busy handing out sugar pills to little kids, he he he). I can make time for LEVENSTEIN! anytime.

Ian LevensteinMonday, October 22, 2012 at 12:52pm PDT

Sorry to hear it man. But I'm not free this week either so it's all good.

Brent KossinaMonday, October 22, 2012 at 12:52pm PDT

Go on ahead without me

Brent KossinaMonday, October 22, 2012 at 12:52pm PDT

Not this week for me, going to a funeral in Louisiana

Ian LevensteinMonday, October 22, 2012 at 12:48pm PDT

Hey, all. Just letting you folks know that I haven't forgotten about the NYCC wrap-up. Work schedule is INSANE this week, so I don't think this is in the cards until next week. Just let me know what days work best for you guys and we'll work around that. Brent, I'm including you in this if you feel like joining in just for general conversation, asking questions and whatnot.

MrBulbamike, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoMonday, June 4, 2012 at 11:22am PDT

Oh here's are some midis of that P.O.W. NES soundtrack I was telling you about. My favorite is "Tank," but I think they're all pretty good. http://jace1350.tripod.com/midi.html#POW

Nick MarinoMonday, June 4, 2012 at 8:22am PDT

Our podcast will go up next Monday. I'll tag you in the Facebook post!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 27, 2012 at 8:41am PDT

Sounds good. Just added you. I'll hop on Skype at 6:30 GMT tomorrow.

MrBulbamikeSunday, May 27, 2012 at 6:47am PDT

Cool, I'll be ok for Monday evening. I'll be on Skype all day tomorrow, so add 'bulbamike' (or 'Mike Stoney') and we'll see what we can do. :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 26, 2012 at 6:54pm PDT

hmmmmmmmmm let's see... Monday afternoon is looking good for me (which I guess would be Monday evening for you... so anytime after 6 PM GMT), Tuesday I'm available from 2-11 PM GMT, and Wednesday I'm good anytime after 2 PM GMT.

MrBulbamikeSaturday, May 26, 2012 at 9:00am PDT

So I'm free anyday up until Thursday, so what time would be best for you?

MrBulbamikeFriday, May 25, 2012 at 8:22am PDT

yeah, I'm in the UK. I'll be free whenever as well, but I'll need to check what I'm doing next week, preperations for LA and such. I'll get back to you when I know exactly what I'm doing.

Nick MarinoFriday, May 25, 2012 at 7:17am PDT

okay, we can record whenever's best for you. i work from home, so i'm pretty flexible in terms of times during the day. are you on GMT?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 24, 2012 at 8:57am PDT

Actually, I will be in LA soon!!! But only for a few days. June 8-10. (And in San Diego a few days before and after that.) But otherwise, I'm nowhere near the West Coast. Anyhoo, my schedule is pretty open in terms of recording... lemme check with my co-host and find out what his plans are fo rthe near future and get back to you.

MrBulbamikeThursday, May 24, 2012 at 8:18am PDT

Hey again. I'm now free to do anything, so I'm still up for this interview. I am actually going to LA for a holiday soon, so if you're in the area, it might be cool to do it then, avoiding overseas lag and such. But I'm free whenever, here's hoping my internet isn't ass. Dx

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 14, 2012 at 3:21pm PDT

End of May, it is!!! I'll get in touch with you then to schedule something. And thx for letting me use the songs on the show! I promise to thoroughly promote you :)

MrBulbamikeSaturday, April 14, 2012 at 2:34pm PDT

:O Of course, that'd be cool! Unfortunately, I won't be able to do much anytime soon, as University work needs to get done. But after that (around the end of May), I'll be free to do whatever. :) Also, feel free to use any of my 8 bits on your podcast. (just in case you were about to ask or something. Dx )

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 14, 2012 at 10:32am PDT

YO! I just stumbled onto your 8-bit UMvC3 covers today and I love 'em!!! Fantastic stuff. My friend and I have a fighting games podcast called the HyperComboCast. We discuss not only the games but other media inspired by them... music, movies, comics, etc. Also, I'm a musician myself, and I'm especially into instrumentals and themes (in fact, last year I did a UMvC3 theme song tournament on the podcast). So I totally dig what you're doing from a craft standpoint. Would you be interested in joining us on a future episode of the podcast? I'd love to talk to you about your creative process and more.

Nick Marino, Meghan Young
Nick MarinoMonday, August 6, 2012 at 2:04pm PDT

I think it was Leo cause I remember the tat was green and blue. I'm okay. You?

Meghan YoungMonday, August 6, 2012 at 11:04am PDT

That's too funny. I'm still tattoo free, but I guess it might be something to consider. The real question is, which turtle? I think that would just be too hard of a decision. I hope you're doing well.

Nick MarinoSunday, August 5, 2012 at 3:54am PDT

Meg!!! I just had a dream that I bumped into you managing a Subway inside a strip mall in LA. You had an awesome Ninja Turtles tattoo on the inside of your right elbow.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 7, 2012 at 7:09am PDT

Hi!!! Yeah, I'm gonna be putting that presentation together on Thursday. To be honest, I have no idea what we do or don't need... I'm pretty much just handling the technical side of it, and letting Aunt Anne and the boys pick out the pics they want. I guess talk to Aunt Anne about it??? I dunno! But if you have anything you want to send me, my email is nickmarino@gmail.com. See you later this week :)

Teresa KobylarzMonday, May 7, 2012 at 6:46am PDT

Hey, Nick! Hope all is well. Denny told me a while back that you were putting together the picture presentation for his service. Was wondering if you want/need any pics of Denny with/without other people in the pics. Let me know & I'll be happy to scan & send them to you. Have a bunch of old stuff. Love, Teresa

Scott HedlundFriday, May 2, 2014 at 5:29pm PDT

Totally slipped my mind but I'll fill it out tonight!

Nick MarinoFriday, May 2, 2014 at 5:24pm PDT

hey buds, dunno if you saw my email i sent out last week about Super Haters, so i'm gonna send this to you again! i'm considering a print version of all of the Haters stories featuring guest artists. but that all depends on how the artists (YOU) feel about it. i put together a quick poll with a few questions on it to find out if it's worth pursuing. i'd super appreciate it if you could fill it out: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1O8e7L0h7zud8Mr3gmdJ8Y0U_OMCYlS1b_kS-gIVNbzY/viewform if the link / poll gives you any trouble, i can always send you the questions in a Facebook message.

haha, thanks for the offer man, it would have been awesome had it been later in the year or next year

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:53pm PDT

Sorry for the late notice but the opportunity wasn't available until today!

Ben BeesleyMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:27pm PDT

Scumbag Good Guy Nick - Tells you about a table that we can use at comic con. Happens in less than a month. ;)

Brian O'GaraMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:25pm PDT

the money and timing just aren't going to match up with me either, thanks though nick

Ben BeesleyMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:24pm PDT

Wow, that is insanely last minute. Unfortunately, I can't do that. But jersey Mongo, may be able to.

Nick MarinoMonday, September 17, 2012 at 2:18pm PDT

Hey dudes, I know this is kinda last minute so I apologize for that. Earlier in the summer, I messaged Link about an opportunity for YIBR to exhibit in the Podcast Arena at New York Comic Con (basically, the back of Artist Alley). At the time, it was a tentative thing and I was asking him if he wanted to split a table. Things have changed and I found someone to share with. But Jimmy Aquino (head of the Podcast Arena block of tables and Comics News Insider host) said he's had some cancellations and he's looking for podcasts who'd be interested in exhibiting behind a full table. The price is nuts for NYCC -- $150 (where Artists Alley tables go for $400-$500). You get two exhibitor passes to the show and a chance to rep YIBR to the max. Is that something you'd be interested in? If so, I can put you in touch with Jimmy Aquino for more info.

Glenn Hauman, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoWednesday, May 2, 2012 at 6:12am PDT

Hey Glenn, I didn't wanna make a big public stink about it in the comments section... but the Chester 5000 XYV webcomic from the NSFW tournament ended over a year ago. Last page went up in Feb 2011. And if I'm not mistaken, according to the rules, the comics are supposed to have at least two updates in 2012. Correct?

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Justin Rivers, Seth Fronzoli
Shawn AtkinsThursday, March 13, 2014 at 2:11pm PDT

Thanks gang!!!

Justin RiversThursday, March 13, 2014 at 1:56pm PDT

:)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 13, 2014 at 8:38am PDT

yep, Stitcher's mad easy like that. RSS feed is it.

Seth FronzoliThursday, March 13, 2014 at 5:50am PDT

Yeah, just make sure to have a url to your podcast feed when you fill out the submission form to stitcher, that's all I did.

Justin RiversThursday, March 13, 2014 at 5:41am PDT

Hmmm. I think you have to add a station on stitcher that connects to your feed as they do the rest. I don't think we had to do anything with an account or anything.

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, March 12, 2014 at 7:07pm PDT

hey kids how do you put a podcast on stitcher. we host on blogger

Shawn Atkins, Brian John Mitchell, Dan Greenwald, Nick Marino, Seth Fronzoli
Nick MarinoMonday, July 15, 2013 at 8:06pm PDT

hey dudes!! i got a favor to ask... we're doing a giveaway on the latest episode of sequential underground. we're asking listeners to make up some funny supervillain names that have alliteration and the best ones win comics. ya know, stuff like... Deadly Doctor Delirium Obstinate Orangutan The Lady of Lurk Lake and so on. but sometimes the comments on these kinds of things start off slow! i want people to feel like they can chime in and not be the only person doing it. if you get a sec, could you pop over to this blog post and leave some funny alliterative villain names? i know you guys will make some super awesome ones so that's why i'm coming to you!! thx a ton :) http://www.audioshocker.com/2013/07/15/sequential-underground-71-sabertooth-swordsman

Nick MarinoSunday, December 2, 2012 at 8:39am PST

Interested? http://dlair.net/austin/austin-lair/webcomics-rampage/ Justique and I were thinking about going. Sunday around noon/early afternoon seems like the best time to go.

Shawn Atkins, Nick Marino, Virginia Shields
Virginia ShieldsSaturday, August 4, 2012 at 6:44pm PDT

On Tuesday? Probably not :(

Shawn AtkinsFriday, August 3, 2012 at 3:27pm PDT

It's cool yo I'll let ya know on the weekend. You comin out for artist lunch in?

Virginia ShieldsFriday, August 3, 2012 at 3:01pm PDT

Yea sorry about that! My weekend is pretty full for a change but maybe next weekend?

Shawn AtkinsThursday, August 2, 2012 at 7:58am PDT

Oh my. Did you peoples wanna get together this weekend or call it a wash

Virginia ShieldsThursday, August 2, 2012 at 4:34am PDT

It looks like I spoke too soon...I can't make it after all. I'm filling in for the secretary at Erik's company while she is on maternity leave and she had the baby yesterday (two weeks early boo). So for the next month or so I won't have any weekdays off. We'll have to get together on a weekend or evening sometime tho!

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 1, 2012 at 1:48pm PDT

not sure yet if i can make it!

Virginia ShieldsWednesday, August 1, 2012 at 10:10am PDT

I'll be there

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, August 1, 2012 at 10:09am PDT

Hey gang, are we kickin it friday?

Aaron M. ConleySunday, July 14, 2013 at 12:16pm PDT

ok

Nick MarinoSunday, July 14, 2013 at 12:15pm PDT

that was nuts! restarting real quick just to be safe, then calling you all back. if you can, might not be a bad idea to restart as well.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 12, 2013 at 8:30pm PDT

don't need premium for it. unless they just switch shit on me in the past week!!! hahaha

Damon GentryFriday, July 12, 2013 at 4:38pm PDT

Skype names for me and Brendan are damongentry and brendanwaswright. Do you have a premium Skype account for doing 4 way calls Nick? Not sure if that's part of the free features.

Nick MarinoFriday, July 12, 2013 at 10:02am PDT

awesome!!!! we can do it as a digital prize pack -- the six issues and a sketch.

Aaron M. ConleyFriday, July 12, 2013 at 9:59am PDT

I guess brendan is getting some kind of bundle code, but I will also still do a free sketch for however you want to do it!

Nick MarinoThursday, July 11, 2013 at 8:34am PDT

Fantastic!!! Biggest audio thing for the recording... WEAR HEADPHONES! (Unless you're using a headset mic, of course.) Pls tell Brendan for me :D (The worst is when one person's not wearing headphones and you can hear everyone else echoing on their end.) Also, try not to sit too close to close to a fan/AC/something that hums. And remember that big rooms tend to create boomy echo and that sounds weird. If something comes up last minute for one of you or if I'm more than five minutes late, feel free to text me. 484-798-7753 See you dudes on Skype on Sunday!!

Damon GentryThursday, July 11, 2013 at 7:01am PDT

Nick we are all on board for 12 noon PST/ 3pm Aaron's time.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 8, 2013 at 2:35pm PDT

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!

Aaron M. ConleyMonday, July 8, 2013 at 10:21am PDT

Ok I'm sending him an e-mail now!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 7:09pm PDT

Great!! I'm good pretty much any time of the day from Thursday July 11 through Sunday July 14. But it seems like we're all good with that, so why don't I just pick a time and see how you guys like it... How about Sunday the 14th at 3 PM EST / 12 PM PST? And if that's bad for Brendan, we can always pick an earlier time during the week.

Damon GentrySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 4:47pm PDT

Yeah just let me know when you guys want to do it and I'll make myself available, sounds fun.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 1:32pm PDT

Yeah we do that for sure!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 1:20pm PDT

that would be kickass!!!!!!

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:24pm PDT

to give away

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:23pm PDT

I could always do a free sketch of ss as well

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:22pm PDT

if you don't hear from damon by monday on here I'll call him

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:22pm PDT

yep, I'll e-mail brendan on monday

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:21pm PDT

Unrelated to what we're talking about right now but important: Our next episode of Sequential Underground is Monday, July 15th. So as long as we record by the 14th, we're good to go. And don't worry about sending over the rest of the issues! I already bought 1-5 and I'm buying 6 on Wednesday. The price point and the format fucking rock!!!! I also really like Dark Horse's digital reader. But if we can't get free codes for the digital issues, maybe that's a way we could do a giveaway for one listener -- we could send them a PDF of the book.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 12:03pm PDT

aww thanks man, I'll send you the whole thing before the podcast, so we can really discuss

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 11:34am PDT

k, cool. i just tore through the first two issues. FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 11:22am PDT

i mean, i'll throw it out there

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 11:21am PDT

oh, and about your editor, i'm down for whatever you think would make for the most compelling conversation!

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 11:14am PDT

i just talked to Shawn, my co-host on Sequential Underground, and he's not gonna be able to record the episode. he's the reason we've been recording on weekends. me? i can record almost any time on any day. so we've got options.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 11:04am PDT

sundays good for me, you want me to ask our editor if he wants to podcast with us?

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:57am PDT

okay, cool. i think Sequential Underground would probably be the best show to have you on. we could talk about the whole digital first months ahead of time thing. among other stuff, of course. we've been recording Sequential Underground on the weekends. would that be okay for the two of you?

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:54am PDT

hmmm, I'm sure we could get something like that let me get with our editor and the marketing guy at dh. I'm pretty free as far as podcasting, wednesday evenings are the only bad time for me, so let me know what damon says is good for him

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:52am PDT

well let's podcast about it soon and add some extra hype!!! do you guys have the ability to give out download codes? i'd love to raffle off a set of the six digital issues to one of our podcast listeners when you guys join us to talk about the comic.

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:41am PDT

pretty good. Excited about ss finally coming out, but scared no one will buy it haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:33am PDT

not bad. cali's pretty sweet. how you?

Aaron M. ConleySaturday, July 6, 2013 at 10:24am PDT

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

Wow... I'm learning how to fake out the fakers!!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

yup, tagging yourself makes a huge difference with the algorithm, for pics from your profile or your page

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:36pm PST

Really?!!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:31pm PST

and tags! if you tag yourself, it'll quintuple the people who see it

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

using your cover photo and profile pic is the best way to get people to see stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

links get ignored

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

always pictures

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

post it all to your profile

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

On Facebook.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

facebook pages are essentially worthless

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

People don't always see my post

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

which is awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

i'd say use twitter for star trek stuff too! you'll get followers and friends from that

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

Facebook is hard for me, because of the algorithm

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

my personal facebook page and twitter has been the best for me

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

i like tumblr but i've personally had a hard time building a fanbase with it

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

:D

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

AWESOME!

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

I have learned a few things today

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

Wow...

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

you can post up to four pics per tweet

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

I had no idea!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

IT IS!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

there's a lot fo growth potential

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

But its not a visual platform

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

but if you post lots of art and follow people and interact and use hashtags

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

to build it up

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

it takes about a year

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

Really??

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

Twitter is the best for artists, i think

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

mix your fandom with your art

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

hahaha! i think you should post your art AND star trek stuff!!!

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:23pm PST

(Though lately I think the new people following me there follow me BECAUSE its a Star trek trashcan.)

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

And maybe I should stop using tumblr as a Star trek trashcan...

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:21pm PST

I'll keep working at it.

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:10pm PST

Been trying to post several times a week to keep people looking at my social medias

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:09pm PST

And my brother is really popular so when he likes something my views go up a few hundred

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:08pm PST

My numbers have been going up more since inktober

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:06pm PST

Wow, thanks for the good advice!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:57am PST

and also have more than just the kids book! do a short mini comic kind like what i mentioned earlier, plus some sketch cards :D

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:57am PST

don't necessarily expect to sell a lot, but to do research for how to sell your book to people

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:56am PST

go there with a modest number of your books and think of it as an opportunity to talk to people and learn from them

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:56am PST

it might even be a worthwhile experience to get a table at a couple of small comic cons or book fairs

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:55am PST

because they often want you to show up with part of your audience in place

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:55am PST

in a way, building that up is a step towards finding a publisher

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

for example, social media presence is a HUGE part of online marketing

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

hmmm

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

but thinking of it as some you can easily market and sell to customers and publishers might be getting ahead of yourself

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

but i went about it all wrong then.

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

well, in high school when i was too young to know what i was doing i tried television scripts

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:54am PST

my view is that this book might be the PERFECT portfolio piece

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:53am PST

yes. i've written a lot of stuff, but never tried to get any published.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:53am PST

this is your first book?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:53am PST

it's hard for me to say because i haven't worked in that format

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:52am PST

it

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:52am PST

maybe

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:52am PST

since a friend suggested maybe i'm marketing it wrong. and maybe it's an 'easy reader' instead of for 0-3 agegroup

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:52am PST

but the way i look at it is

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:52am PST

oh! i am gonna try re-writing my query letter

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:51am PST

of course there are always exceptions

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:51am PST

well i personally think that should be a down the line goal

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:50am PST

if i find i can get libraries here to have me, then i may need to print some, but not sure yet how things are gonna go

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:50am PST

well there are always exceptions

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:50am PST

i'm more hoping to get people purchasing the kids book digitally maybe.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

slap a cover on it

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

maybe an 8 page story.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

is turning a short story into a minicomic that you assemble yourself

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

i think the ideal way to start out

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

i hear ya.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

but it's rarely necessary for early works

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:49am PST

yeah, it's an easy way to make something look half professional

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:48am PST

and frankly, i think people use print on demand as a self-gratifying crutch

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:48am PST

gotcha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:47am PST

print on demand is a great resource but a lot of people start out printing 100 copies of their book when they should only print 20

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:47am PST

but i also think it's important to start small

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:46am PST

there are a bunch of good options for print on demand out there

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:46am PST

for comics, here's a good resource: http://digitalwebbing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=170069

Angela CapelThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:45am PST

Thanks!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:45am PST

self-publishing... hmmm...

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:45am PST

great colors!!!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 7:18pm PST

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:40pm PST

I could use any advice you have time to give me on self publishing

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:40pm PST

I have no idea how to use createspace yet at all

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:39pm PST

I have a lot to learn about self publishing

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:39pm PST

Yes, it would be.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:18pm PST

i think self-publishing is a valuable experience... i could be wrong, but wouldn't this be your first time self-publishing?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

i think you should do ALL of that.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

you should draw it!!!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

I'm also about to pitch some feminist comics but I'm scared if I get that gig I'll have to worry about trolls

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:58pm PST

But if I don't get it in the next several months I n at try self publishing that one and focus on shopoing the next one around

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:57pm PST

And making a last push at getting the kids book published

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:55pm PST

And if I can get enough support doing it through patreon

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:54pm PST

I'm thinking of taking a really big step and drawing my StarFish comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:50pm PST

no one else can do that

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:50pm PST

and as far as i'm concerned, the only person who can make you give up is you

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:50pm PST

i think pushing through that discouragement is a part of making that step as a public artist

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

that's natural!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:47pm PST

But feeling very discouraged

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:47pm PST

I don't want to give up

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:47pm PST

But when mayson goes to school in a few years I'll need to be making some money at it actually

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

Well, I kind of hate doing anything else. Lol

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

what's driving you?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

at the end of the day, i feel like i gotta do these stories for me and no rejection can stop me from making it for myself

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

i think doubting yourself is super normal

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

so lots! hahaha :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

and no one wanted it

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

the book i'm doing with daniel has been pitched twice to at least 10 or so companies

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

most of the rejections are just non responses, which in a way i find worse

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

hmmm dunno how many, i don't keep count!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

I'm beginning to doubt myself...

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

How many rejections?? How do you deal with the rejections??

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

Yay!!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:41pm PST

then i've got another that's been in the works for almost five years! it's a supervillain thing, kind of an origin and coming of age thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:40pm PST

it's a fucked up superhero thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:40pm PST

no publisher.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:40pm PST

well Daniel and i have another book that's drawn, getting colored and lettered now

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:40pm PST

hmmmm what can is hare about

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 12:39pm PST

great sketch!!! so cute

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:07am PST

so you working on anything you're allowed to talk about?

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:04am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:03am PST

heh heh

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:02am PST

and Neelix

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:02am PST

and Queef is sort of my Quark

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:02am PST

sweeeeeet!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:00am PST

and she kind of looks like a half armadillo

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:00am PST

she's 10 and her whole life has been this nomadic trip

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:00am PST

WHOA cool!

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 11:00am PST

My main character is sort of like Seska's baby if it were raised on voyager

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:59am PST

i think i need to wait longer

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:59am PST

with that said, i tried rewatching the show and got a little bored

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:59am PST

wow, that's awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:59am PST

Just came up with a character last night who's totally inspired by B'Elenna.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:58am PST

Voyager has been creeping its way into lots of stuff I'm working on lately.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:58am PST

I love what I'm hearing

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 10:58am PST

OMG YES

Angela CapelWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 6:09am PST

Thanks!!! My new story is a comfort, cause I've been having a personal crisis about my choice of art as a career. Anyway, the new story is basically my way of re writing Voyager. Lol plus, I have a character named Queef, cause you can't go wrong there.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 10:50pm PST

Congrats on the new soul sucking idea!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 10:50pm PST

I don't have the Holy F*cked TPB yet. I still need to contact them about that! :(

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 10:49pm PST

Hiiiiii!!!!!!

Angela CapelTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 8:20pm PST

Also, I got a new comic idea. And it's absorbing my soul!

Angela CapelTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 8:19pm PST

Anyway, I know the trade for Holy F*cked is coming out and I imagine now I can purchase stuff from you if you have it.

Angela CapelTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 8:18pm PST

Not even about Voyager!

Angela CapelTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 8:18pm PST

I haven't bothered you in a long time

Nick MarinoMonday, December 21, 2015 at 8:49am PST

HAHAHA AWESOME!

Angela CapelFriday, December 18, 2015 at 4:31pm PST

I made it!

Angela CapelFriday, December 18, 2015 at 4:31pm PST

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

She reminds me of my mom. I like her a lot, but when I was younger I wasn't fond of the character

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

Yea, I guess because its a Cardassian station maybe you hear her less

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

in case i lost you for a sec

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

sorry, character association there from Lwaxana to Majel's computer hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

i looked it up and i guess Majel only sporadically does computer voices on DS9. like 20 or so episodes.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

cool. she's great.

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:11pm PST

Lwaxana is good on DS9

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:09pm PST

I think the true joy of Q is his dynamic with Picard.

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

Like it made no sense to him lol

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

But it was funny when Sisco hit him and he was all "Picard never hit me!"

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:07pm PST

On DS9 he was kinda lousy too.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:06pm PST

is he any good on DS9?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:06pm PST

i like that Q exists but i don't always like his appearances

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

but original Q is so annoying in it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

i like the conundrum

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

oh yeah that episode is okay

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

I know he likes to rile the captain's up, but gender should mean very little to him

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:51pm PST

But the disappointing thing was how sexist Q was suddenly

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:51pm PST

No, the one where a Q asks for asylum, and Q ends up letting him be mortal and gives him poison to kill himself

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:47pm PST

is it the one where Janeway goes to the Q realm?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:47pm PST

frankly, i don't remember it well

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:47pm PST

don't think so

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:38pm PST

Did I complain about that Q episode yet? Because that was really lousy!

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:28pm PST

Yea, that one was really well done.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:25pm PST

Tuvix is one of my favorite episodes. That's the kind of ethical and social dilemma that Star Trek tends to tackle so well.

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:06pm PST

Jeez

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:06pm PST

Oh, and Voyager last night was Tuvix!! I loved that one. I hope Janeway can't sleep at night because she killed that guy! He was a much more functional human being than either Tuvoc OR Neelix and no one stood up and said "Lets talk about this"

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:03pm PST

I could watch those shows a billion times. I just love them

Angela CapelSunday, November 29, 2015 at 7:02pm PST

He was the best character, totally

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:10pm PST

But yeah it's cool and I know MacGuyver was on the TV show, which is cool.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:09pm PST

I've never watched the Stargate series. I'll check it out! I just saw the original Stargate film for the first time a couple of years ago. Just missed it somehow and never went back to it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:08pm PST

I forget the Voyager episode you're talking about! Aside from Chakotay episodes (which are just horrendous) I feel like Harry episodes are the most meh. Oh, no, wait... I hate Paris episodes on the Holodeck. HATE HATE HATE hahahahaha

Angela CapelFriday, November 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

But his goal was the same I believe. Just to keep his program going.

Angela CapelFriday, November 27, 2015 at 12:30pm PST

Premiss was pretty much the same, only the gamekeeper kept playing back old memories of the SG crew so they could change them and make their past "better"

Angela CapelFriday, November 27, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

It was early in season 2.

Angela CapelFriday, November 27, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

The SG1 episode was called The Gamekeeper.

Angela CapelFriday, November 27, 2015 at 12:21pm PST

Dude!! The one I saw last night was that one where Harry was trapped with those people in the stasis pods. I liked it, but only at the end when Janeway fooled the program. I remember Stargate doing a very similar episode once. You should check that out. I'll look it up

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

Neelix!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

ugh

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:02pm PST

but

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:01pm PST

Tuvoc is awesome and he just keeps getting better.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:01pm PST

hahahaha!

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 7:11pm PST

I feel like I'm missing something now that I'm done DS9 still... But I think that's mostly because I am on some tumblrs that ship Quark/Odo really hard and draw just the best gross little love stories about them and I want it all to be real!

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 7:06pm PST

I mostly fell asleep on the one where Neelix killed Jonas, but I remember in the past really liking that one so I may watch it again iunno

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 7:04pm PST

Because Tuvoc and those "kids" were just hilarious

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 7:04pm PST

On purpose

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 7:04pm PST

This time I'm really sending you a message

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:13am PST

Lol!!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:13am PST

And my kids put the emojis

Angela CapelThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:12am PST

Lol I clicked my mom, I swear!

Nick MarinoThursday, November 26, 2015 at 9:03am PST

William Shatner Presents: Chaos on the Bridge

Angela CapelWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

Interesting. What is it called exactly?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PST

it might be there too it's pretty good it's about the development of the show and the writing side of things

Angela CapelWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

I only have hulu! I should check it though.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 24, 2015 at 10:01pm PST

there's a new TNG documentary on Netflix!

Angela CapelSunday, November 22, 2015 at 6:16am PST

What?! That's nuts! Lol

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 9:36pm PST

yeah they even have an episode with a race of hyper intelligent lizard people who (thru some time and evolution hijinks) have the voyager crew as ancient ancestors AND it has nothing to do with the Janeway / Paris episode.

Angela CapelSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:59pm PST

Lol never?! That would be a plot point a million times if I wrote it!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:55pm PST

Janeway and Paris have ultra evolved lizard babies and they never mention it ever again

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:54pm PST

OMG THAT'S MY FAVE EPISODE!!!

Angela CapelSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

Last night watching Voyager I fell asleep, and when I woke up Tom Paris and Janeway were crawling around in a swamp making pre historic babies!

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

exactly

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

so hoaky. barely even sculpted

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

like he's playskool jesus

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

And i especially like how the Christ of the Ozarks looks just a bit hoaky.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

hah!

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

so many big jesus statues to see... so little time!

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

http://10mosttoday.com/10-most-famous-jesus-statues-in-the-world/

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

Christ the King is tallest

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

but he's on the list of tallest jesuses

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

lol! I just know this isn't the tallest one.

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

hahahaha is there a Guinness Record for Tallest Jesus?

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

one of the tallest Jesuses of the world...

Angela CapelWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

I get to see this Jesus in december on my road trip to NJ

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:58pm PST

HAHAHAHA!!!!! Totally.

Angela CapelTuesday, November 10, 2015 at 7:29pm PST

OK, I just found out that Barclay was the one who programmed the Dr's social skills. Suddenly the world makes sense!

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 8:19pm PST

Yea, it looks like UPN at the time had its reasons but I can't seem to find out much about it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 7:52pm PST

Hmmm weird I never realized it was shorter

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 7:41pm PST

Dude, why is season 1 so short?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:37pm PST

I like Harry. I mean, he's goofy, for sure. I dunno why they ever put him on the deck.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:37pm PST

Oh I know him! He's all over the final season of Voyager.

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:30pm PST

You know... broccoli from next gen lol

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:29pm PST

And I include Barklay in this example.

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:29pm PST

Harry Kim though, is by far the most pathetic Starfleet officer ever

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:15pm PST

Hahaha yeah. At least they figured out a cool way to make it functional with the doctor.

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:15pm PST

But it's a trek thing so they kinda have to

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:15pm PST

I feel like Voyager has very little excuse to even have a holodeck honestly

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:14pm PST

yeah! that's them.

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:09pm PST

Kayzon or something

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:08pm PST

Yea, those guys suck!!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:07pm PST

I kinda like the Seska stuff but then they draaaaaaaaag it out. I forget the name of the species she links up with, but they're a weird mix of interesting and annoying. Kinda like Klingon knockoffs

Nick MarinoSunday, November 8, 2015 at 5:04pm PST

OH GOD I HATE HOLODECK EPISODES! Except for the one where Harry and Tuvok fall in love with the Holodeck. :D

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

But the one where the Doctor went on an epic Beowulf adventure was great.

Angela CapelSunday, November 8, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

I kinda fell asleep on a few eppys recently (the one where Seska was discovered as cardassian and the one with Neelix and his war story)

Nick MarinoThursday, November 5, 2015 at 7:01pm PST

That's a good one! Nice moral dilemma in that episode. I think there's a really good cluster of episodes right around there too.

Angela CapelThursday, November 5, 2015 at 6:54pm PST

Neelix is like a magical space unicorn lol anyway, last night we saw the one where the people with so much hospitality wouldn't let them use their uber transporty thing and so Tuvoc used his logic to decide to get it despite the captain's principals. So much angst!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 1:04pm PST

he's like a magical alien because since we've never seen his kind before, he can be anything. which is okay, but often gets preposterous for the rules they've set up in the Next Gen era.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

but in general they give him a pass on everything. it's kind of annoying to me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

hahahaha YES very under explored with the Neelix thing

Angela CapelTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:22am PST

Oh, and since I am on here, I just wanna say that the Phage eppy of Voyager... Man, I'm disgruntled about it. I just don't buy it that now Neelix is walking around breathing all fine with just one little elf lung. Makes me grumpy! :\

Angela CapelTuesday, November 3, 2015 at 11:21am PST

Now, bear in mind that they don't just tell you that he's Wormhole Jesus right away. I think they really bring that home in the last season, but it's very cool to me!

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:21pm PST

That sounds like a good plan ;)

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:15pm PST

So this week I'll try DS9 again starting from s3. Maybe if I really fall in love with it, I can at least enjoy the first two seasons once I finish the series.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:14pm PST

Oooo one of the Detective Tuvok episodes! Not bad. Kinda slow at points for me but overall I love the idea of his prison sentence. Fascinating.

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:09pm PST

We're watching episode 8 of Voyager right now

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

Yea, the first season or two it really wasn't as awesome. It took time to find its stride, but if that's the push you need to really get into it, then you have my full support!!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 8:03pm PST

hahahaha i haven't made it that far into the series to see anything like Wormhole Jesus! maybe i should just skip to s3 of DS9

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 6:32pm PST

we just watched it last night. :) DS9 is still my fav, cause Sisco is basicallu Wormhole Jesus. You kinda can't go wrong with that!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:04am PST

i still can't get into ds9 :(

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:04am PST

when was the last time you watched it?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 2, 2015 at 10:04am PST

oh i like that one!

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 5:22am PST

The last one we saw was about a tiny wormhole that they were sending messages to a romulan through but he was from like 20 years too early and they gave up

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 5:18am PST

We're on like the 5th episode I think?

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 5:18am PST

We tried Stargate Universe but it was so bad we quit after the pilot and moved on to Voyager.

Angela CapelMonday, November 2, 2015 at 5:18am PST

,we finished DS9 last week and needed a new thing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:18pm PST

I restarted the series again a few months ago but I think it was too soon. I just finished it less than a year ago.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:16pm PST

What episode are you on?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 1, 2015 at 9:16pm PST

OMG YES

Angela CapelSunday, November 1, 2015 at 8:10pm PST

Hey, I'm marathoning Voyager!

Angela CapelFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

Don't worry about it

Angela CapelFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

well, i mean, if you do just pretend you ordered them from me or something

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:54pm PDT

shhhh don't tell anyone though!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:53pm PDT

hahaha yeah you got the hook up ;)

Angela CapelFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

Woh, not wph!

Angela CapelFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:03pm PDT

You gave me the variants!!!!!!!!!! Wph!!!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 2:00pm PDT

thumbs up!

Angela CapelFriday, March 27, 2015 at 1:58pm PDT

Comics came in the main! Today!!!!!!! Stoked!!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 12:35pm PST

BOOOOO! but yay for next week!!! :D

Angela CapelThursday, January 22, 2015 at 11:48am PST

Dude, the snow melted and i went to my local shop today to get my Holy F*ck and damn it, my dude 'forgot' to order it! He says he'll get it for me for next week :(

Angela CapelWednesday, December 10, 2014 at 10:49am PST

thanks, Nick!

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 10, 2014 at 10:41am PST

that's totally up to you! the pinups are only in the print versions and #2 will be out in mid-January. i'm slowly sharing all of them with some process art on the Tumblr page, but i'm cool with you sharing it whenever you want! i'll email you a hi-res copy of the formatted for print version.

Angela CapelWednesday, December 10, 2014 at 10:32am PST

oh! When can I show the pinup online?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 8, 2014 at 5:54pm PST

okay, four it is :D

Angela CapelMonday, December 8, 2014 at 4:54pm PST

The eyes are just fine. And I know you asked me something in an email, probably about the number of comics I needed? (I need 4 if that's ok?)

Angela CapelMonday, December 8, 2014 at 4:47pm PST

Dude! I'm a jerk! I haven't gotten back to you about a single thing!

Nick MarinoFriday, December 5, 2014 at 9:05pm PST

how's this look to you? once everything was formatted, Daniel and felt like it would be cool if the eyes popped a little more, so i lightened the lens up a bit. that okay?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:11pm PST

hehe NICE!

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:10pm PST

Looking forward to the email

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:10pm PST

Ok, I can do the nov 29th since dec 20 is taken! I'll just crank that baby out!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:06pm PST

I'm going to email you the page template we're using to give you an idea of the size we're working at.. Plus I'll have some other details in there. SEE YOU IN THE EMAILZ!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:05pm PST

But the good news is that everything else is still open.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 6:05pm PST

Hey, you can use ANY name you want! So the bad news is that both Dec 20 just got claimed in the past half hour.

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 5:51pm PST

But yea, Jesus or Satan pinup would just be SO fun that I can't refuse to draw it!!

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 5:50pm PST

(not that I do naked boobs these days anyway, but just sayin)

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 5:49pm PST

My only reservation is that I should possibly use my maiden name, since I have to keep my fingers clean for the childrens book stuff. I hear that publishers look right over you if you even have so much as a boob in your gallery and wanna do children's books.

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 5:48pm PST

I may even be able to get it done by the 29th.

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 5:47pm PST

hmmm. I'm thinking maybe I could swing one of the later ones. December 20th is do-able.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:36pm PST

whatcha think?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:35pm PST

Issue #1 - Deadline of Sat Nov 8 Issue #2 - Deadline of Sat Nov 29 Issue #3 - Deadline of Sat Dec 20 Issue #4 - Deadline of Sat Jan 17

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:35pm PST

Here are the deadlines:

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 4:23pm PST

well i didn't think we were going to have any room but it looks like we could probably fit one or two pinups per issue.

Angela CapelMonday, November 3, 2014 at 3:54pm PST

Heck yea! What are you thinking?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 3, 2014 at 12:50pm PST

any interest in doing a pinup for Holy F*ck?

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:52pm PDT

Awesome!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:50pm PDT

OH YES! sheep too. i keep remembering to post your sheep super haters at weird times, like saturday at 8 pm and i'm like "nawwww wait till monday!" and then i fucking forget. i think i'll post both of them tomorrow. they got that anthropomorphic thing in common.

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:48pm PDT

cause that's all just easy fluff

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

or sheep

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

can't go wrong there

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

can

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

totally

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

giraffes and stick figures are the way to go.

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:47pm PDT

lol

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:46pm PDT

humans are the worst. i can't draw them convincingly at all.

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:46pm PDT

maybe i just need to stop drawing humans!

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:45pm PDT

it was the only thing i drew that night that i liked

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:45pm PDT

:) I was having a bad night artistically, and all of my proportions on people were terrible but i was listening to the podcast and got inspired.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:45pm PDT

is it better!!! i'll post it tomorrow morning. thx so much for the scan :D i'm so thrilled you drew this.

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:40pm PDT

Sorry I didn't reply right away. Kids had a function then i had to get their cranky buts into bed

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:38pm PDT

lol ok, here's a scan. don't know if it's any 'better' or anything though.

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 5:37pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 3:43pm PDT

i thinkg the pic is fine as is but scanning is cool too. whatever you feel will rep your art the best!

Angela CapelThursday, March 27, 2014 at 3:41pm PDT

Sure! Did you want me to scan it so the "quality" is a little better? All I did was take a pic on my iPod.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 27, 2014 at 3:21pm PDT

I LOVE THE GIRAFFE!!! CAN I POST IT ON THE HATERS BLOG?

Angela CapelFriday, October 11, 2013 at 2:15pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 8, 2013 at 3:28pm PDT

do u have a PS3?

Angela CapelWednesday, August 14, 2013 at 10:49am PDT

Thanks Nick! I'll have to go and save these when I get on my computer. :)

Nick MarinoSunday, August 11, 2013 at 6:52pm PDT

The high res jpgs came out a little big, so I can't email them to you. I uploaded them to my webspace instead. You can just right click and save this zip file: http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/sheep-haters.zip It's got high res versions of the strips, plus high quality GIFs of the animated versions.

Angela CapelFriday, August 9, 2013 at 10:17am PDT

LOL!!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 9, 2013 at 10:14am PDT

omg... we should do a follow up story called... SUPER GYRO!!!! hahahahahahahahahaha

Angela CapelFriday, August 9, 2013 at 4:40am PDT

Very cool!!! I'm so happy! Love the grey in Minds Eye's hair!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 11:19pm PDT

woooo!! finally done. this animation isn't as awesome as i'd hoped, but i think it's good enough. http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/super-haters-474.gif

Angela CapelThursday, August 8, 2013 at 9:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, August 5, 2013 at 8:03pm PDT

Okay, cool! Let's go with Thurs.

Angela CapelMonday, August 5, 2013 at 3:09pm PDT

I can do Tuesday or thurs at 1 my time, since I generally put the kids down to nap around then

Angela CapelMonday, August 5, 2013 at 3:07pm PDT

I can Skype. Computer has a mic. Never did it before so I don't know how good or bad it is.

Nick MarinoMonday, August 5, 2013 at 2:21pm PDT

both my tuesday and thursday are relatively open, with some free time on wednesdays too. typically what are good times of the day for you? the earliest i can record is 1 pm your time since i'm on the west coast. as for recording, a laptop with a built in mic and some headphones is fine. even skype on a phone is okay as long as your wifi signal is good. what options do you have?

Angela CapelMonday, August 5, 2013 at 2:12pm PDT

I was wondering when you'd ask that. I just have to wait till a time when the girls are asleep. Nap time or bed time... Sometime this week... and figure out how to connect to something to podcast on... and try not to sound like an oaf...

Nick MarinoMonday, August 5, 2013 at 11:29am PDT

wanna podcast about our collabo this week?

Nick MarinoSunday, August 4, 2013 at 8:29pm PDT

Annnnd another one: - http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/super-haters-472.gif

Nick MarinoSunday, August 4, 2013 at 11:08am PDT

:) i'm glad it looks okay to you! your colors are so rich and natural and mine are so flat and digital that i was worried you'd hate them.

Angela CapelSunday, August 4, 2013 at 10:36am PDT

Wow!!!!! Love the animation!!!!! It's so cool to see the finished product! Love how you colored the sheep!

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 3, 2013 at 8:01pm PDT

Sooooooo..... I decided to have a little fun with some animation. Facebook won't allow me to attach GIFs, so here are links to the animated versions of the first two comics. I hope you like them!!! - http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/super-haters-470.gif - http://www.nickmarino.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/super-haters-471.gif I've also attached the non-animated versions.

Angela CapelSaturday, August 3, 2013 at 10:41am PDT

Looking forward to seeing it!

Nick MarinoFriday, August 2, 2013 at 4:28pm PDT

colors update!! i'm pretty much done on the first two, half done with the next two, and a quarter done with the fifth one. i'll be sending you stuff this weekend.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 28, 2013 at 8:37am PDT

i know it's super different. sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry about that!!! but this idea felt right whereas the one we talked about first, i just couldn't see it in my head. anyway, i'm glad you're down with this. it'll get officially posted and shared around tomorrow morning.

Angela CapelSunday, July 28, 2013 at 7:34am PDT

First draft=final draft!! Lol I think you made some great choices here. I'm impressed that you found a way to visually show the concepts we worked on without showing the artwork from the montage! I was a bit surprised that this was so different of a trailer than we had initially discussed, and that it was so different from previous SuperHaters trailers, but I think that's what I liked about it.

Nick MarinoSunday, July 28, 2013 at 1:38am PDT

alright, here's the first draft of the trailer. i hope the first time's a charm! but if it's not, that's okay. just lemme know if you want me to change anything. :) i couldn't get facebook to upload it right so i had to upload it to youtube and make it unlisted (which basically means that it's hidden for the time being). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITyglxNe-YY

Angela CapelFriday, July 26, 2013 at 11:37am PDT

I like the sound of that! :)

Nick MarinoFriday, July 26, 2013 at 11:36am PDT

I might be able to post it on FB and make it only visible to you!

Angela CapelFriday, July 26, 2013 at 11:26am PDT

I don't have a YouTube account... If there's a way to send it through Facebook please do, but if not just message me and maybe I can create a YouTube account or something? I'm so glad things are moving ahead! This is gonna rock!!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 26, 2013 at 11:19am PDT

Hey I'm not done with the colors yet... I still need another week. But I really wanna get the trailer out there on Monday. So I've got a few ideas for how to make it work. I'll be sending you some stuff over the weekend, including some early drafts of the video. Do you have a YouTube account so I can share a non-public video with you? Or maybe I can do it here through Facebook...

Nick Marino, Fawndolyn Valentine

I'm so glad you wrote this!!! This guy is BUSTED!!!!!! Well done ;D

Fawndolyn ValentineFriday, February 8, 2013 at 12:00pm PST

I love Bleeding Cool :) I need to read it more often!

Fawndolyn ValentineFriday, February 8, 2013 at 12:00pm PST

From the time you sent me this, to right now, I've been writing the story out in my livejournal (it took so long cuz I'm at work ;) And now I've sent it off! Thanks! Here's what I wrote: http://diello.livejournal.com/522463.html

Nick MarinoFriday, February 8, 2013 at 7:40am PST

Hey, if you really wanna blow up this guy's spot, you should contact Rich Johnston at BleedingCool.com. You ever read that site? He's been busting people who swipe comic books and trace other people's art for years. Along with the comparison images, you should also send him all of the responses that you and your friends have gotten from Lux and the artist. There's a really good chance that he'll run a story about it!!

Nick MarinoThursday, September 20, 2012 at 9:15pm PDT

hahaha yeah!!

Fawndolyn ValentineThursday, September 20, 2012 at 9:10pm PDT

AHAHAHAHAHA!!! Well you technically have some pictures, but only because his booth was crowding yours! Hahaha

Sat or Sun? Specific time?

Kenny Riot Jr.Friday, July 26, 2013 at 1:53am PDT

This weekend!

Jason K AverillSunday, July 21, 2013 at 1:29am PDT

A'ight, I have developed one or two opinions about Red Earth/Warzard. Opinions beyond how I wish more games were titled "Warzard." When can we record? :)

Kenny Riot Jr.Wednesday, July 10, 2013 at 10:42am PDT

Warzard / Red Earth

Jason K AverillTuesday, July 9, 2013 at 5:55pm PDT

Well, for the moment (and I'll assume the next week or two) I've Saturdays off, and don't need to be off to work until about 5pm on Sunday. I do work Friday nights though. My schedule laid out, would we be talking about something specifically?

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 11:50am PDT

Not that I can't do weekdays, but because of my sleep / work schedule, it's really tight.

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 11:49am PDT

I'm pretty flexible, but the best days for me would be weekends (anytime within then)

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 11:49am PDT

Only thing we need to worry about is scheduling

Kenny Riot Jr.Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 11:49am PDT

Dope shit

Jason K AverillWednesday, July 3, 2013 at 12:55pm PDT

I'd be down.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 3, 2013 at 12:44pm PDT

Lorraine GrateWednesday, July 16, 2014 at 10:48pm PDT

hi hi! We are heading out friday night sometime and heading back sunday sometime!

Cynthia LeeTuesday, January 6, 2015 at 10:07am PST

It's got a silly graphic, but it's a well thought out article. http://modernfarmer.com/2014/03/pigheaded-smart-swine/

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 6, 2015 at 10:05am PST

WHAT?!?!?!? how do they do that? and what game was it? cuz if it's just Pong, them i'm like "ehhhh" but if it's Final Fantasy VII then i'm impressed.

Cynthia LeeTuesday, January 6, 2015 at 10:02am PST

Cynthia LeeTuesday, January 6, 2015 at 10:01am PST

Lol, can I make the ham part optional?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 22, 2014 at 12:20pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 22, 2014 at 11:49am PDT

Cynthia LeeWednesday, October 22, 2014 at 11:46am PDT

Cynthia LeeWednesday, October 22, 2014 at 11:40am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 22, 2014 at 5:53am PDT

looks like the release parties were a lot of fun! i hope it was a great weekend. now that all the dust has settled, could i get a copy of the book from you?

Nick MarinoThursday, July 3, 2014 at 4:38pm PDT

i'll let you know if i do. thx :)

Cynthia LeeThursday, July 3, 2014 at 12:09pm PDT

well, if you ever need help running a kickstarter/crowdfunding thing I will help you all I can. You were essential and an incredibly valuable resource for the kickstarter.

Nick MarinoThursday, July 3, 2014 at 11:02am PDT

anyway, i'm emailing you back now

Nick MarinoThursday, July 3, 2014 at 11:02am PDT

thanks so much for the offer! but Super Haters wrapped up for good on June 25th and i'm plenty happy to let it be done for good :D i know the readers wouldn't have minded. it was a personal decision on my part

Cynthia LeeWednesday, July 2, 2014 at 8:10pm PDT

If you'd like I can help you run the Super Haters Kickstarter

Cynthia LeeWednesday, July 2, 2014 at 8:09pm PDT

I'm sorry about that Nick. I'm sure the readers wouldn't have minded you starting another kickstarter campaign.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 2, 2014 at 4:25pm PDT

WEIRD! i just got the email now even though it says it was sent a while ago. i guess Gmail is being cranky.

Nick MarinoWednesday, July 2, 2014 at 3:30pm PDT

one thing i wasn't clear about in your update on the ApocaLobster page -- are you saying you sent the digital comics pack email to all of us in the ApocaLobster group? because i didn't get it yet! i want it nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! hahaha. i'm excited to see it :) as for kickstarter, i had to scrap the campaign. it was going to be a collected edition of my Super Haters comics, but June was the only time i could do it because of a few different scheduling issues.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 23, 2014 at 11:41am PDT

Awesome!!! I'm so stoked to see 'em. Is there anything I can do to help with the next steps?

Cynthia LeeMonday, June 23, 2014 at 11:13am PDT

The books are at my house. They look very nice!

Nick MarinoSunday, June 22, 2014 at 8:17am PDT

how's stuff moving forward with the printing?

Nick MarinoFriday, June 6, 2014 at 10:41am PDT

K, thanks for letting me know.

Cynthia LeeFriday, June 6, 2014 at 10:05am PDT

I will post the new Kickstarter update today

Cynthia LeeFriday, June 6, 2014 at 10:05am PDT

New update! New shipping date!

Nick MarinoFriday, April 18, 2014 at 6:45pm PDT

I appreciate you letting me know how you feel about it. I'm really looking forward to reading your story!

Cynthia LeeFriday, April 18, 2014 at 11:08am PDT

(I don't mean to be mean, it's just that it's starting me make me really sad)

Cynthia LeeFriday, April 18, 2014 at 10:50am PDT

I appreciate the humor, but I would like people to stop texting/ emailing/ calling me about the project. I am already very embarrassed and am trying my best to finish it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 22, 2014 at 10:57pm PST

Hi! I'm just checking in to see if you're gonna be posting another Backer Update soon on Kickstarter. Since the last one was a month ago and it said the stuff would probably be shipping out around this time of February, I figured it might be nice to let them know about our progress. Hell, you could even share your "Things I Learned" graphic with them! I'm sure they'd appreciate it.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 8:44am PST

oh yeah Julia, i know her. oh well, Mean Uncle is also Lazy Uncle. annoying

Cynthia LeeTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 8:02am PST

I think Julia Gerdich is Rose's relative. Mean Uncle could be my uncle too, hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 31, 2013 at 7:42am PST

I guess Mean Uncle could be my uncle hahaha! Do you know the email address for the account? Jessica Heberle is a friend of Shawn, Virginia, and I. I'll message her. Julia Gerdich is from McKeesport according to the interwebs. Maybe Shawn's friend? And after some internet research I found out that Ben Cohen is a twitter friend of the AudioShocker. Unfortunately, I don't know him personally.

Cynthia LeeMonday, December 30, 2013 at 7:30pm PST

Mean Uncle

Cynthia LeeMonday, December 30, 2013 at 7:30pm PST

Cynthia LeeTuesday, December 17, 2013 at 10:28am PST

wow! I will post deadlines in the apocalobster group now

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 17, 2013 at 9:30am PST

Thanks for making the campaign a success! So when are my final songs due? I'll have a total of six songs for you when all is said and done.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 5, 2013 at 7:44pm PST

no worries!!! i'm not in any rush. in fact, the more advance notice i have of the exact day it's gonna launch, the better!

Cynthia LeeTuesday, November 5, 2013 at 7:28pm PST

I'm sorry it's taking so long. We'd had so many technical setbacks with the video. I know you've been talking about the kickstarter on audioshocker. I need to submit it to kickstarter, who will review it's adherence to the guidelines.

Cynthia LeeTuesday, November 5, 2013 at 7:17pm PST

I need to edit a few things, then I'm submitting very soon, like tomorrow.

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 5, 2013 at 7:05pm PST

i just saw the video... i like it!!! super fun. when are you thinking of launching the campaign?

Cynthia LeeFriday, April 12, 2013 at 12:08pm PDT

yeah, no probs, the other musicians have similar problems

Nick MarinoFriday, April 12, 2013 at 12:08pm PDT

Mucho thx!!!! I just wanna make sure that people really feel the vibe of the story in my music.

Cynthia LeeFriday, April 12, 2013 at 11:55am PDT

I think that's reasonable. I'll let everyone know that the deadline will be postponed another week so the musicians have more material.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 12, 2013 at 9:01am PDT

I hate to say this but I think I need another week to get my first song to you!!! Unfortunately, I just don't have much to go off of right now. Only a couple of sketches and some loose plot details. I want to make sure that my songs really reflect the stories. And since I leave for PGH on the 17th, I lose all of next weekend to record. :(

Cynthia LeeMonday, April 8, 2013 at 4:20pm PDT

Thanks Nick! I totally want to go.

Hey, I talked to Virginia and I'm also doing the song for her story.

My email is thebookwolf@gmail.com

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 9, 2013 at 8:38am PST

Gotcha!! I spoke to Shawn last night after you got in touch with me and he vaguely described the project (emphasis on vaguely). If you haven't already checked it out, here are a bunch of links to my music: http://www.nickmarino.net/music/

Cynthia LeeFriday, March 8, 2013 at 6:33pm PST

Ha! How could I replace a dude who has a stunning picture of himself on the toilet? This meeting will be myself and the other two musicians for the Anthology. We're going to talk about what the musicians want to do, ideas of fair payment, making deadlines, and general brainstorming.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 8, 2013 at 6:21pm PST

Well, well, well... look who it is. My replacement!!! :D hahahaha As far as I know, I'll be at home on Sunday at 4 (EST, right?). I've never used Google Hangout before but I'm sure it'll be a breeze. Thx for asking!

Cynthia LeeFriday, March 8, 2013 at 6:09pm PST

Yo Nick, this is Cynthia. Can you do a google hangout meeting with me and the other two artists this Sunday at 4? Hope you can make it! I've heard many cool things about you, cheers!

Nick MarinoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 8:20am PDT

what do you guys think of this menu? http://www.thegaslamprestaurant.com/starters-greens-burgers-sandwiches-entrees-sides-sweets.pdf there's a half-price deal on this place and it's pretty close to us. i could go either way on the menu.

Lauren DellegrottoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 7:03am PDT

Thx for looking

Lauren DellegrottoSaturday, August 10, 2013 at 7:03am PDT

Ok are good with that.

Nick MarinoFriday, August 9, 2013 at 9:15pm PDT

k, just curious. that gets us a slight discount on San Diego Zoo tix. still, it looks like they're gonna cost about $40 a piece. i scoured the web but couldn't find a better deal.

Lauren DellegrottoFriday, August 9, 2013 at 6:46pm PDT

not costco...just AAA

Lauren DellegrottoFriday, August 9, 2013 at 6:46pm PDT

I'm gonna request this.

Justique WoolridgeThursday, August 8, 2013 at 5:08pm PDT

Oh sweet! Any excuse to wear my blood-coat is a good time!

Nick MarinoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 5:07pm PDT

I heard it's a blood duel to the death, where only one pianist can reign supreme. Kinda like the Highlander.

Justique WoolridgeThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:38pm PDT

I need to find some obscure songs to request. Just in case

Lonnie MexicoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:33pm PDT

I'm assumin it's a dueling one I don't know for sure

Justique WoolridgeThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:32pm PDT

Oh! The dueling thing... I was hoping the pianists poked one another... Ive never done the duel eithet

Lonnie MexicoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:31pm PDT

Yeah you just call out songs and they go one at a time and play then it's pretty cool

Justique WoolridgeThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:06pm PDT

I have never been to one. The piano's joust, right?

Lauren DellegrottoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:02pm PDT

We heard about some cool piano bar on long beach too so maybe one day/night we could check that out if we're not up to anything.

Lauren DellegrottoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:00pm PDT

Also....we will help with gas costs etc too since you went out of your way to rent the car :)

Lauren DellegrottoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 8:28am PDT

Can't wait!!!

Justique WoolridgeThursday, August 8, 2013 at 5:12am PDT

I shouldn't be awake to respond but since I am lol... We're pretty hermit-y so doing normal shit would be good lol. I mean, unless there was something you two wanted to do specifically alone, it'd be nice to do cool cali stuff

Lonnie MexicoThursday, August 8, 2013 at 4:49am PDT

Ok and hey if you guys don't want to do something that we were planning on we can always go on our own and you guys can chill...don't want you to feel like you have to do everything we were planning

Nick MarinoWednesday, August 7, 2013 at 11:32pm PDT

The Illiterate BadgerFriday, July 26, 2013 at 12:48pm PDT

Nick! What a really generous offer! I have emailed the image to you. Please let me know if you have concerns... It's a little "short" of 68 tall, but hopefully it'll work anyway. Thank you!

Nick MarinoFriday, July 26, 2013 at 10:08am PDT

hey Nate - on my podcast site, the AudioShocker, we run banner ads in our comments. basically, they're links to comics, music, and other stuff that we like. they're randomly inserted every three comments. here's an example: http://www.audioshocker.com/2013/07/17/everything-blows-with-ross-and-nick-4-bros#comments i'm taking a few out of rotation soon and i want to add a few more. i was wondering if you'd like to make an illiterate badger banner that we could put into rotation. the dimensions are 468x68 px. you can email it to nickmarino@gmail.com.

jerjoso@hotmail.com I'm just finishing up my last assignment for the inking correspondence course...

Nick MarinoMonday, January 21, 2013 at 2:46pm PST

We've had some former Kubert and SCAD students discuss their experiences and training before, but we've never had that idea as a featured topic. Thx for the suggestion :D Jeremy, what's your email?

Brian John MitchellMonday, January 21, 2013 at 2:32pm PST

Hey, My buddy Jeremy Johnson just finished doing the Kubert courses. Didn't know if it might be cool to do a Sequential Underground about what to learn about comics from a formal comics program (maybe with Ross Campbell as a guest as well?). I can't remember, maybe you did an episode similar to that early on? hrt Brian John Mitchell

Colin McMahon, Jared Catherine, Nick Marino
Nick MarinoThursday, September 18, 2014 at 8:09am PDT

Well I definitely appreciate your word of caution on how many orders to expect. My imprint publisher was instructed by Diamond to censor the logo, so that's why the CENSORED fits nicely around the character art :D I look forward to more input from you. Thanks!

Colin McMahonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:30pm PDT

My wife saw it and didn't see anything wrong with the CENSORED across it. She said I have just as bad I. The store (scantily clad). Reading the Bleeding Cool article it read that Diamond put that Bar there, but it looks more like the design (horns & guns sticking into it). So that would be ok. I guess my concern would be F*CK being right on the cover on the shelf. Bagging brings it's own problem in that people can peruse the insides. The only book I bag is Tarot and people know what they are getting there. Let me see how it's presented in Previews next week and ill comment more. I was just going via the article. But over all, I think you may be limiting how many stores you get into based just on the title.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 6:37pm PDT

I totally understand. And I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know what you think about the title. I'm grateful for any orders of the book, whether they're for customer pull lists or kept out of sight under the counter. But I do have a couple of solutions in mind to make it possible for you to rack the book, if you're open to that. Basically, you can let me know how many issues you've ordered and I'd be glad to mail you an envelope with an appropriate number of either of these solutions: 1. Custom bags and boards that strategically cover up the title. Also, I'd include a little signed postcard sized print in the bag too. 2. If bagging the book is too restrictive for your tastes, I'd be glad to provide a custom fold-over to be placed over the top of each issue. Just a little folded piece of paper that's sized to the width of the issue. Plus, the fold overs would have some cool art on them and they'd be signed.

Colin McMahonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 4:26pm PDT

Sadly, it has absolutely nothing to do with the content and everything to do with a big F*CK on the cover of the book. You'd really be better off keeping the CENSORED bar on it. The risk/reward on it isn't enough to put it out on the shelf. I will order a few but have to keep it under the counter and only sell it if it is asked for. Which isn't really the best way to try to sell something.

Nick MarinoWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:47pm PDT

Hi Colin! Long time, no see :D (well, I don't live in PGH anymore so that would probably explain why...) Anyway, I hope you don't mind that I got a teeny peek at the thoughts you shared with the CBP and I totally understand what you're thinking about Holy F*ck. Many valid points in there. If you're open to it, I'd love to send you a PDF of the first issue so you can see the kind of story we've got in store for readers. My collaborator, Daniel, and I also have some fun ideas for ways that we can mask the title of the book and still have it sold in Pittsburgh Comics. (Ways that would only involve you opening up an envelope on your end.) Don't get me wrong -- I'm not naive to the number of copies that a shop can expect to sell of a book like this on the racks (0? hahaha! okay, seriously... maybe 2.) But I'm interested in exploring options of doing a little something special to thank you for taking a chance on Holy F*ck #1.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:34pm PDT

Hello Colin, My name is Jared (aka the other guy from Comic Book Pitt), first off I wanted to thank you for sending your message to the show's Facebook page. I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us from a retailers perspective. As you're aware, Nick is a friend of ours, so I shared your concerns as a retailer with him. I have included him on this message so that he may open a dialogue with you to discuss those concerns. Thanks again! Jared

Jared CatherineWednesday, October 2, 2013 at 5:29pm PDT

Gotcha.

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 2, 2013 at 5:20pm PDT

oh, i just meant that i thought it would benefit us if everyone is linking to the kickstarter like crazy the day that it drops since the first day is often the biggest $$$ day of the campaign.

Jared CatherineWednesday, October 2, 2013 at 2:26pm PDT

That sounds okay to me. I can't think of any reasons why not. What role do you need me and my computer to play?

Nick MarinoWednesday, October 2, 2013 at 1:11pm PDT

My suggestion was that we launch it on the 14th or 15th

Jared CatherineTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 9:37am PDT

We're coming back on Sunday the 13th. What's the plan on the Kickstarter?

Nick MarinoTuesday, October 1, 2013 at 8:08am PDT

Jared, when do you get back from NYCC? I was talking to Cynthia last night about the best day to launch the Kickstarter and I just thought maybe it should be a day when you're back in home near a computer! hahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, September 21, 2013 at 1:52pm PDT

okay, cool. cynthia, what's your skype name? also, please wear headphones!!!!! i'm a bit of a stickler for echo and extreme background noise.

Cynthia LeeSaturday, September 21, 2013 at 12:40pm PDT

sorry folks. No internet at my house. I can make it at 9:30

Shawn AtkinsThursday, September 19, 2013 at 7:09am PDT

ill ask tonight unless she respond before then.

Nick MarinoThursday, September 19, 2013 at 6:59am PDT

yeah, i like that. Cynthia, that work okay for you?

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 4:06am PDT

sounds perfecto mang.

Jared CatherineWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 4:05am PDT

You want to call it 9:30 just to be specific? Gives everyone time to get home and get settled in after Zine fair?

Shawn AtkinsWednesday, September 18, 2013 at 3:10am PDT

that time works with me.

Jared CatherineTuesday, September 17, 2013 at 7:22pm PDT

Zine Fair ends at 8, I don't have to break down a table or anything so I'm game whenever. 9-9:30?

Nick MarinoTuesday, September 17, 2013 at 7:03pm PDT

hi buds! so Sequential Underground... i'd love to record the podcast with you via Skype this Sunday night (9/22) after the Zine Fair wraps up. that way people can hear about both the SPX and Zine Fair experiences! how does that work for everyone? what time would work well for you?

Erin LiSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

Oh, and I live in Long Beach so it's a nice short drive from here. ;)

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:20pm PDT

We should def meet up! I don't have my signing schedule yet, but I'll be at my publisher's booth throughout the weekend and I'm doing a couple of panels.

Nick MarinoSunday, June 14, 2015 at 11:19pm PDT

EXCITING! I've never been to a screening at a con before so I dunno much about they work. Will you be screening with other short films or is it a like a panel with QnA and just for Kepler X-47?

Erin LiSunday, June 14, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

hey Nick! it's been forever! I'm screening my sci-fi short there - Kepler X-47 - it screens Thu. night at 7:30pm. Not allowed to announce it until it's on their website. Let's def meet up! are you coming from NYC?

Nick MarinoTuesday, July 2, 2013 at 5:23pm PDT

FUUUUCK! I didn't see that part of your message that said 2 days left. I'M SORRY!!!! This movie sounds incredible. It's the type of thing that I'm all about. I'm so excited for you that you've got this opportunity... and even more excited for me because I get to watch it when you're all done! Please don't hesitate to contact me early about this type of thing next time. And I'm always looking to help others promote independent, inclusive, and thoughtful media... and it totally sounds like that's at the core of KEPLER X-47. So stay in touch with me about it! I'd love to have you join me on a podcast at some point in the future to talk about the story's journey and your creative/production process. Here's my podcast site: http://www.audioshocker.com/ We cover a wide range of media, but mostly comics and movies, especially sci-fi stuff.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 1, 2013 at 3:27pm PDT

hey i've had a super busy past couple of days and can't look at the links now but i have seen this and didn't forget!!! just wanted to let you know :D will be in touch soon.

Erin LiSaturday, June 29, 2013 at 9:24pm PDT

Hi Nick, Long time no see! Just saw that you live in Long Beach now! That's awesome - let me know if you're up to grab coffee sometime. It's cool to see you're still in the arts! I'm hoping that I'll be able to stick with a creative job. I wanted to get in touch and tell you about KEPLER X-47, a sci-fi short film that I'm directing. Four years ago, I moved to LA to pursue my interest in the arts, and its been a fun and challenging journey. KEPLER X-47 was accepted into AFI's Directing Workshop for Women, and is about a woman trying to escape a human zoo on an alien planet. http://bit.ly/1c57wgc We're raising funds to cover production costs, and there are 2 days left for our crowdfunding campaign. I know you must get a ton of these, but it would be amazing if you could share the campaign with scifi fans and filmlovers. http://igg.me/at/KeplerX47/x/8083 Many thanks, Nick! Really appreciate you taking the time. Please keep in touch! Cheers, Erin

sounds good

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:51pm PDT

we'll do an official event/invitation page when SDCC clears us to announce it

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:50pm PDT

I think I'm going to just set up a private page for this thing. it seems like an easy way for us to stay on the same page.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:41pm PDT

so, joking aside, it's sounding like everything's pretty good.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:35pm PDT

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:35pm PDT

oh yeah - i'm slingin' them muthafuckas all over the place!

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:29pm PDT

whooooaaaa swanky badges. thanks Rob, i will!!! i super appreciate it.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:28pm PDT

No prob, Nick. Let me know what happens with Daniel

Jessica TseangTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:27pm PDT

The badges are for all 4 days plus preview night

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 6:27pm PDT

oddly enough, i have a press pass. so i think i'm good! Daniel Arruda Massa (yah know, Holy F*ck artist) still needs a badge but we've already got a request in with Action Lab for that. the Action Lab panel is on Saturday, so like you said, i dunno if that'll be just for Saturday or what. anyway, i'm good at the moment but i really appreciate the offer!

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:50pm PDT

cool, thanks clint.

Clinton WolfTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:49pm PDT

I'm good.

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:37pm PDT

noted. thanks guys.

Erik AmayaTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:37pm PDT

I'm good for a badge. Just got my confirmation on Friday.

Jessica TseangTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:36pm PDT

okay! Sounds good! I know that we have until july to fix or add any names, so far I (JESSICA) am good, I have a badge already. But I wil see if my momma might need one

Rob Divine Hammer BradfieldTuesday, June 2, 2015 at 5:35pm PDT

Hello all! Just letting you know that SDCC contacted me about badges today. I'm pretty sure I know who has an existing badge, and who needs one, but I don't want to assume. Can you verify whether or not you've already got a badge? Though I can't make any promises, in a nutshell, most of you do already have badges. So I think there's no harm in at least requesting a couple extras for a friend or relative. And then, I don't know if it would be a day pass kind of thing, or if they'd get the full four days. Let me know as soon as you can, but I'd really like to get this in tonight or tomorrow.

Doug...did you mean Rock N Fish? I can't find a Rock Bottom in Downtown LA.

567902136@facebook.comWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 12:03pm PDT

Cool! I still haven't found a place that will take reservations. Have yet to call the place that Doug recommended. Will try this afternoon.

509258174@facebook.comWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 11:57am PDT

Added! Both Larry and Wren are coming to Wondercon and would be excellent dinner companions!

567902136@facebook.comWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 11:56am PDT

Yes! Absolutely! You know all are welcome!

509258174@facebook.comWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 11:48am PDT

I have a couple of friends coming to Wondercon who might be down for the nerd dinner. Is it cool to add them here?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 2:20pm PDT

They ended up scheduling my panel for Sat evening, so I'm not sure if a dinner like this will be in the cards for me. I'm just gonna have to play it by ear. But thanks for including me, Kristian!

591891257@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 1:47pm PDT

have fun

567902136@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 1:42pm PDT

I'll see if I can look them up. On my way to Dan Diego right now. Family outing.

634554627@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 1:07pm PDT

Not sure

567902136@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 1:06pm PDT

Do they take reservations?

634554627@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 12:57pm PDT

Rock Bottom at LA Live is pretty good about accommodating big groups

567902136@facebook.comTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 12:56pm PDT

Hey Guys...regarding the Wondercon nerd dinner on Saturday night...I've called several restaurants in the area around the convention center and none of them will take a reservation for Saturday night. It's first come first served. I do have a lead on a place that says we shouldn't have a problem getting seated. Apparently there's a Kings game that starts at seven and they are assuming that they will have seating available. They may not know about Wondercon. If anyone has any ideas I'm open to them. Nick I'm just including you because you liked the nerd dinner status. Wasn't sure if you were interested.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 5:34am PDT

the next time you go to read it, it'll be the fixed version

JB SapienzaWednesday, April 15, 2015 at 3:41am PDT

I've never used this comixology before. Do I have to re-purchase it, or does it just appear "fixed" in my account? (he asked before bothering to look himself.)

Yay!

so the original version they posted of the collected edition was all messed up... lots of duplicate pages and weird stuff. but they fixed it today. just letting you know!

good news all! ComiXology has accepted our digital collected edition of Holy F*ck, which includes your pinups! (i had to take your URLs off, though... ComiXology has weird rules about "ads" in their books and what they consider to be ads is pretty strict)

I can't believe I am making this transition to comic book writer. I don't talk about it much, but it was always a dream of mine. Now, I am over a year into it. Wow! I love it! I am reaching out to you as fellow creators who are trying to do something different. AWAKE has done pretty well, but needs to do better. It is just not getting the traction with retailers that it needs. Most retailers just order the superhero stuff from Marvel and DC. Many don’t even think about all-ages books featuring strong girls on great adventures. Some are not familiar yet with our publisher, Action Lab. I am scratching my head trying to figure out what to do. So, I'm going to do something I don't find easy: ask for help. Next Saturday is Free Comic Book Day. AWAKE Issue #0 is one of the comics that should be available in every store. In addition, the first trade paperback, Awake Vol. 1: Gremon's Wrath, is out and Issue #5 should be on the stands. To make this a blockbuster weekend for AWAKE, I need three things: First, I need everyone to talk about Awake on social media all week. Buzz, buzz, buzz. Share stuff from the Awake FB page, post photos with the book, post reviews, tag your friends, and tweet the heck out of it. https://www.facebook.com/awakecomic/ Second, I need people to go to their local comic shop next Saturday and pick up Issue #0. Here is an easy way to find the comic shops near you: http://www.comicshoplocator.com/Home/1/1/57/575 Third, while you are at the counter, buy AWAKE Issue #5 and the trade paperback. If those books are not in stock at that shop, ask for them. All of those books can be ordered from Action Lab in the Previews catalogue. http://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/MAR160983 and http://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/FEB161002 Thanks!

1069704744@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:30pm PDT

oh, that's good to know, was worry about that

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:26pm PDT

The chances of the wrong description being in the actual print catalog is SUPER low, though, because Dave does the pages by hand nowadays.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:25pm PDT

Just between us, the Action Lab PREVIEWS solicits are messed up on the website almost every month. So this is just par for the course. The Action Lab guys rarely even check the web listings.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:24pm PDT

Yeah, might as well

538943249@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:23pm PDT

Thanks man! I haven't heard back from Jason or Dave, so I'll just email Matt tonight.

1069704744@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:22pm PDT

Oh thanks Nick!

4801997@facebook.comThursday, April 21, 2016 at 6:21pm PDT

Hey guys! If you ever run into any Previews problems again, you can just straight up email Matt Demory dmatt@diamondcomics.com who handles the Action Lab account. The Action Lab staff is great but sometimes they get so busy with their own books and schedules that if you're contacting them about an issue like this it might take a while to get resolved. :D Just a little life hack I learned from Holy F*ck.

i kinda feel like the static has become some reliable that you can depend on, like an old friend or an annoying SFX ("Oh Yeah!"). seriously, i do need to fix it. i have no idea where the fruck is comes from in the first place.

579220482@facebook.comThursday, April 8, 2010 at 12:31pm PDT

that sounds a lot like the gear i have, including the semi-busted drum machine. i'll try and call tonight.

546347791@facebook.comWednesday, July 18, 2007 at 8:43pm PDT

I think we would probably switch off on bass and synth. As far as equipment, I have a bass amp, a korg wrokstation keyboard, a semi-broken drum machine, some FX gear, an 80'ds roland synth & a little mixing board> when we talk we can get a game plan going, I'll make up some cds of stuff I have in mind

546347791@facebook.comWednesday, July 18, 2007 at 1:45pm PDT

I Live in Lawrenceville my home # is 412 586 4998 give me a call

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, July 18, 2007 at 7:27am PDT

check out this place called Jerry's Records (it'll be on Murray Ave in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood). they might have a good deal on a used turntable there. as for other musicians, i know a few guys in town (and some decent rappers if we ever wanted to try a collabo). i can ask. i would prefer bass or synth, but i'm down for anything. i'm an okay drummer, have a basic kit, and could always play until we find a better one. the best place to find other musicians in town is the pittsburgh craigslist. for face to face, other people who might be interested in this sort of thing would probably at a club called the Shadow Lounge. what part of town are you in?

546347791@facebook.comSaturday, July 14, 2007 at 8:17pm PDT

well, like I said I just moved here, so I am just starting this up. What instruments would you want to play? do you know anyone else who would be interested? I'm thinking of posting some ads. Really i have only been in town a couple of weeks and I have spent most of my time unpacking and finding out where to order pizza from. Do you know anywhere I can get a used turntable?

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, July 14, 2007 at 8:09pm PDT

i'm down for a project like you've described. sounds like what i'm trying to do musically. not to mention that i'm tired of only hearing back from musicians that want to play metal or bad jam band rock. you find any other musicians interested in this project yet?

546347791@facebook.comFriday, July 13, 2007 at 8:06pm PDT

Hey Nick, Awesome art on your facebook site –by the way. I am getting settled in this week in Pittsburgh, so sorry for any delayed response. I would like to get a project going of “dance” music, inspired by hip-hop, reggae dub, electronica playing original and some recognizable (mostly hip hop and classic R&B). In my last project, I used my laptop to play loops with a drummer, bassist and guitar player, I played mostly keyboards and also sound clips with a digital turntable, the guitar player and I would switch off riffing, soloing or playing a melody or sound clip. I would like to put together a live show doing stuff like on my myspace page (a newsense medley) that incorporates live music and samples. DJ logic if you saw him about 5 years ago with the Project Logic band would be a parallel. I want to find people who can keep a groove, play heads-up, and aren’t afraid to follow a drum machine or digital timekeeper. Obviously we should have some sort of comic book that goes along with the band, giving our mysterious origins and stuff.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, July 12, 2007 at 3:31pm PDT

yeah im def interested. what are you thinking?

Hey Fellas - Tonight, Wayne and I are taking a trip to the Cricket for his birthday. (For educational purposes, I assure you.) If any of you are available, come toast the Big Guy on his B-Day! It'll be when I'm done with work, so after 9 or so. If you can think of anyone else (as cool as us!) who may wanna join us, feel free to pass the invite along!

no sandman, sadly. only one gn from the library that i need to return (it's like three years overdue). i do have a lot of TMNT, but they were already called by someone previous to the SHOWDOWN rule. however, the Cap and FF stuff is all yours... there's not a ton of it, but there's a decent amount. the sucky thing about my apt is that it's on the second floor, and the only way up is the stairs!

35102348@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:43am PST

ohhh and if you have the Sandman and it is unspoken for I'll nab that too please :)

35102348@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:37am PST

Yeah that showdown rule sounds like fun lol. If you have any ghost rider, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Capt. America, Fantastic 4, or Jonas Hex that you could save that would be sweet. I should be there with Link if he just comes without someone in a wheelchair (which is me) then if you could give them to him that would be great :)

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:02am PST

haha i just got a message from link and he wanted Supes Seasons as well. looks like SHOWDOWN is in effect!

4801997@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 10:00am PST

yeah i'll pull those to the side for you. if you can make it, you should def come by. OH and i should ask... did link tell you about the current SHOWDOWN rule? it's important when it comes to dibs. any other books you're looking for? i'm too lazy to make a list of everything, but i have tons more stuff. i'm trying to get these damn comics out my house!

35102348@facebook.comMonday, November 16, 2009 at 9:40am PST

Hey if possible could you save these comics for link, if I can make it I'll grab them Captain America #1-5 by Liefeld and Loeb, Superman for All Seasons, Cap to Serve and Protect by Waid It stinks you are releasing your books, but thank you for just giving them away and not charging for them :)

Dear So and So, Abe Abeling Visions of Plaid: Volume VI 1. Sole 2. Chartreuse 3. Queen of Pain All tracks written, recorded, and performed by Abe Abeling, except "Queen of Pain", originally written by Alkaline Trio. Copyright 2010 Awkward Silence Productions. Image this month by Julian Mackler - check out his work at -http://www.mackme.com/studio/home.html DOWNLOAD THE TRACKS HERE: http://www.theinkflowslikewine.com/2010/07/abe-abeling-visions-of-plaid-vol-vi.html Well, here we are at the halfway point... Six months have passed quickly haven't they? Of course that doesn't mean I've streamlined the process... With a trip to Vegas and Chicago right in a row, the month was poised to cause scrambling... But then with a crashed computer and an unusable drum session, not to mention some marathon days of composing, it seemed as if all was but lost... But somehow these damn things keep coming out rather decent... However, I've all but resolved myself to get a new computer or the next six months will be as frustrating as the first six... Keep an eye out for a best of compilation from the first half of the year to emerge at some point in the next few weeks... Hope everyone enjoys their summer with some of your favorite tunes... Speaking of which, Julian, track 2 is dedicated to you.... To download the other Volumes of Plaid, visitwww.theinkflowslikewine.com Enjoy!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:46pm PDT

My only ideas are to tell her my friends flight it's delayed our that the car is messed up

Nick MarinoMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:46pm PDT

But then it's like 3 hrs between when I drop off my friend and pick you up!

Nick MarinoMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

Emory BanksMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

I'm so excited

Emory BanksMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Okay cool

Emory BanksMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Probably easier to do if she's not at the airport

Emory BanksMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, July 13, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:45pm PDT

It's like $12 for a cab to my house

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Easy

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

i can get you out of here at 7

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:44pm PDT

Late. So I have time with y'all

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:43pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:42pm PDT

Airports.

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:42pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:41pm PDT

okay

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

Eh

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:40pm PDT

Oh yeah there wad one site but I don't remember what it was. Some guy booked longer flights and got peopleoff early because it was cheaper Think it shut down though

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:39pm PDT

Either fly where your friend is going the night before or take an early flight from Phoenix or Denver or wherever

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:39pm PDT

is that like some ticket hack i don't know about?

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:38pm PDT

how would that even work???

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:38pm PDT

Noooooooo

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:38pm PDT

if that's easier

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:38pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:36pm PDT

I'm seriously fine with whatever

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:36pm PDT

the orange county airport is close too

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:36pm PDT

hahahaha

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

Eh. The bus ride from lax would be nothing compared to lax itself lol

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

it's like 3 hours to here

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

but letting you bus from LAX would be cruel

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:35pm PDT

that's close

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

only from long beach would i let that happen

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

"From the airport"

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

Lol you're like "yeah"

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

hahahaha

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

Lol I meant from the airport

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:34pm PDT

omg like 50 hours bus ride

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

Well worst case I can bus it or cab or something. We'll make it work

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

alright searching now

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:33pm PDT

i'd need to make some excuse like "oh shit his flight is so delayed"

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

yeah my friend leaves mad early

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

oh shit

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:32pm PDT

I live less than ten minutes away from SAT, so I can cab it there any time, even early

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:31pm PDT

alright, lemme see our options...

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:31pm PDT

Yeah for sure

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:31pm PDT

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

Yeah I really am not fussy

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:30pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

if you're okay with that

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

something like phoenix for an hour

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

but flying from san antonio to long beach means you'd have to make a layover

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

yeah long beach!!!

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

?

Emory BanksTuesday, June 23, 2015 at 10:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, December 1, 2014 at 8:14pm PST

You should take a pic of yourself up to your neck in a bathtub full of tacos. Or maybe I'll just see if someone else has already done that and I'll photoshop your head into it.

Emory BanksMonday, December 1, 2014 at 1:09pm PST

But I still get mail here and Australia, if that matters

Emory BanksMonday, December 1, 2014 at 1:08pm PST

1540680648@facebook.comFriday, September 14, 2007 at 11:58am PDT

I did, however, join "Poke the other team's quarterback" I think thats got to be the most annoying thing in the world. Its a little classless and horribly immature, I know, but imagine receiving thousands of pokes Ahh . . .

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 14, 2007 at 11:56am PDT

haha join when you're not applying for anything official!!!

1540680648@facebook.comFriday, September 14, 2007 at 11:50am PDT

The fact that someone, especially someone I know, made that group makes my life . . . That's hilarious . . . . I can't join as of now, I'm applying for all sorts of official school stuff . . . But congrats on making my day.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 4, 2007 at 10:08pm PDT

hah! i bet it does

1540680648@facebook.comSaturday, September 1, 2007 at 9:39pm PDT

yeah, we started on monday . . . School's okay, but it gets in the way of college

4801997@facebook.comSaturday, September 1, 2007 at 4:22pm PDT

i love boobs! thanks for passing it along. how's school? did you officially start the semester yet?

1540680648@facebook.comThursday, August 30, 2007 at 9:21pm PDT

4802122@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 8:49am PDT

k - how about a 12:30? thanks, and sorry for the weirdness; i was calling on skype, and the internet cut out. i'll be in a better internet spot by 12:30. -A

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, September 22, 2010 at 8:46am PDT

phone meeting is fine. probably easier that way. i just need some advance notice for when you're gonna call. i'm free until 2:15.

4802122@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 12:36pm PDT

I'm really into Sweetlix. :) Noon! It's happening! Do your best to come with a title and a time, even if other stuff is in flux, so I can slap it on the schedule.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 12:32pm PDT

i work on Grant between 6th and 7th. honestly, i think the food options blow pretty hard down here... but there is a decent fro-yo place on Liberty called Sweetlix, if you're into that. it's right next to the SPACE gallery and across the street from the Harris Theater.

4802122@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 12:20pm PDT

ok - lunch tomorrow! where's good?

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 9:17am PDT

if i'd known you meant tues, i could have done lunch today, but it's too late for me now. and tonight i'm booked -- get home from work at 6:00 and then i record a podcast at 7:00, and i edit it and post it all in the same night. plus, i need to letter my webcomic tonight as well. however, i'm still good for meeting up around noonish tomorrow. i only get a 30 min lunch though!

4802122@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 7:05am PDT

ahahahaha i meant tomorrow (tue) as in today.

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 21, 2010 at 1:40am PDT

you keep picking my bad days! actually, they're all bad. but especially wednesday! ummmm maybe lunch but i work downtown and i can't really go far for lunch so if downtown is bad for you then i guess weds is out cause i'm booked that night.

4802122@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 7:51pm PDT

great news. i'm really open to anything! it could be a workshop - a live how to - it could be a comic-in-two-hours marathon featuring some of pgh's best! it could be a panel on how to make and market your own comic. i'm glad you're down! let's discuss in person tomorrow (wed). are you free for a coffee or for lunch or dinner?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 6:31pm PDT

the answer is YES which is not really an answer to your question but the second part of my answer is "working on it!"... do you have any initial ideas? i have a friend with some ideas and i just need to reach out to the rest of the comic peeps for even more. WORKIN ON IT!

4802122@facebook.comMonday, September 20, 2010 at 11:53am PDT

hey nick! the thing i wanted to ask you in gchat is if you were up for getting a comics crew together for a panel or workshop on the sunday of the expo. it could last anywhere from 30-60 minutes and could be on just about anything. we have room in the sched and no comics presence as of now. let me know -adam

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 17, 2010 at 10:14am PDT

is gchat that thing on the side of my gmail, or is it a voice thing? i'm okay with that, but i think a better alternative would be this Monday evening. Corey Wittig has his graphic novel discussion group at the Carnegie Library from 6-7. if you can make it, that would be an ideal time for us to meet up because a lot of local comic professionals go to that group (one'll be speaking, and i think it's fairly safe to assume that others will show up to support him). that way, you and i could talk to some of them about panels or related sort of stuff in person. in fact, if that is something you can make, i can contact some of the guys personally ahead of time and ask them to hang around after the discussion group for a few minutes to talk about SPF stuff.

4802122@facebook.comFriday, September 17, 2010 at 7:29am PDT

do you wanna just have a gchat date?

4801997@facebook.comFriday, September 17, 2010 at 6:20am PDT

i'm gonna be at the PodCamp conference this weekend, so i'm booked for Sunday. when are some other good times for you? (normally i would definitely be at a coffee shop working on art, though!)

4802122@facebook.comThursday, September 16, 2010 at 3:58pm PDT

i'm back in town saturday night. want to grab a sunday coffee and talk comics-themed panels and/or workshops? we have a few open slots before we advertise the lineup. -A

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, September 7, 2010 at 8:05am PDT

no worries - i know it can get when there's a lot going on. anyway, i was able to get all the answers i needed so it's all good.

hey good seeing you last night. if you're still looking for comics script samples, i might have a few books / mags hanging around my place. you can always drop me your email and i can send you a sample of one of mine at least as an example of format i've been working with. here's that magazine i was telling you about. their website sucks but the mag is great.

4801997@facebook.comWednesday, November 1, 2006 at 11:58am PST

sounds pretty awesome. i'm not doing bands anymore, but i'm still making a lot of music. i got into hip hop production a little after college and made a ton of beats but didn't really like the process of self-promotion and shipping music around, so i turned most of the songs into stand alone instrumentals. i actually just put my first album of instrumental stuff up on itunes a week or two ago. comics? psssshhh i dunno man! what type of stuff you looking for? everyone's best of 2009 seems to have been Asterios Polyp (though i didn;t read it myself).

4803206@facebook.comWednesday, December 30, 2009 at 10:00am PST

Hey Nick! The band I'm in with Jonbro and Alberto is called Shambolish. It's pretty loose, mostly improvised instrumental music that's similar in ways to what Handface used to sound like (I even play a similar role to Yann from Handface, playing bass lines and rhythm chords). Jon plays this 64-button performance box called a Monome, which he and I built from a kit. Alberto plays drums as usual. Check www.shambolish.com in case we add any shows in the near future (nothing planned right now). The thing at Waffle Shop was a weird "competition" with Dave Bernabo's Assembly (they were doing all a capella) to play live soundtrack for a bunch of random YouTube videos. Thanks for asking! Are you in any bands these days? And do you have any new comics recommendations?? Cheers, Bill B.

4801997@facebook.comMonday, December 28, 2009 at 7:48am PST

what type of music are you making nowdays? i saw a pic of you with alberto and jon on the waffle shop site, so i'm curious.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 9:28pm PST

oh that sucks you can't make it to the gig. it'll be acoustic with some friends singing a few songs here and there. enjoy the dad's bday and hit me up anytime there's something fun going on around town.

4803206@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 8:45pm PST

hey Nick, how are ya! I'm sorry to say I won't be around that weekend -- going home to NY for my dad's 50th birthday. Hahaha. Thanks for the invite! I will definitely tell my housemates bout your show (Josh Atlas, Jon Brodsky, etc.) What sort of music are you playing? Solo show? Hip hop?

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 6:50pm PST

hey Bill are you gonna be around for Carnival this year? i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

4801997@facebook.com, 4802799@facebook.com
4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 4:09pm PDT

thx. yeah, one friend reminded me of pianos n stuff (i haven't been there in forever), but i've never even heard of music-go-round. i'll def check them out.

4802799@facebook.comMonday, May 10, 2010 at 2:49pm PDT

hey Nick, I'm not up on the various pawn shops around Pittsburgh, but one place you could try is Music-Go-Round. It's in Monroeville a bit past the mall. They're fair people and will probably give you better money than Guitar Center would. Pianos 'n Stuff would also be worth checking out - they're in Blawnox and a pretty short drive from Shadyside. Good people there too. Otherwise, I'm not sure of many other places that deal with used gear/trades. There's always Craigslist - I've been fairly successful buying/selling there. If I hear of anyone that's looking for music equipment, I'll definitely let you know. Catch you soon, rich

4801997@facebook.comSunday, May 9, 2010 at 7:57am PDT

hey totally unrelated question -- i'm trying to get rid of some of my music gear (couple guitars, bass, amp, small drum kit), but i don't know too much about guitar shops in town. do you know which ones are best for selling or trading in used stuff? thx. nick

4801997@facebook.comMonday, May 3, 2010 at 7:14am PDT

nice. see ya round

4802799@facebook.comSunday, May 2, 2010 at 1:43pm PDT

hey Nick, I'm dating someone who lives on Maryland - very well could be the same building. I come by quite a bit so perhaps I'll run into you sometime soon! Rich

4801997@facebook.comTuesday, April 27, 2010 at 8:33pm PDT

hey woody, you living on Maryland Ave now? i'm pretty sure i saw you going into my building today. we might be neighbors. WEIRD.

4801997@facebook.comFriday, March 17, 2006 at 11:51am PST

duh thats right. well you should probably come back just for the show.

4803719@facebook.comFriday, March 17, 2006 at 1:14am PST

oh that would have been awesome but actually, i am studying abroad right now (in Prague). so unfortunately, i won't be able to make it. oh and i'm missing carnival! but goodluck and i'm sure it'lll be an awesome show.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, March 16, 2006 at 7:32pm PST

what up Aviva. i'm playing a show at Kiva Han on Craig St at 7pm on Saturday April 22nd (the Saturday during CMU Carnival weekend). it'd be great if you came to check out the music and hang before you go party that night.

don't sweat it. i'm still in pittsburgh so you should definitely let me know if you're ever close by. i will do the same if i'm in ohio (happens a few times a year).

66601143@facebook.comSaturday, February 4, 2006 at 5:12am PST

Thanks for the comment :) ... sorry for being such a secretive jerk before. The whole situation was so fucked up for various reasons (mainly her father), so I wasn't sure what I was going to do and I frankly just couldn't handle it. It would be cool to catch up with you sometime, now that I and my life are non-psychotic. Hope everything's going well for you

Nick Marino, Meghann Walker
Nick MarinoThursday, November 21, 2013 at 7:33pm PST

What I've been working on lately is top secret for now! Until it gets published, that is. But I've got some of my past self-published work that I'd love to send to you. And if you just wanna check out digital stuff, you can read pretty much everything here: http://www.nickmarino.net/ebooks/ Most of my family is in Philly so next time I'm making the trip, I'll let you know. Are you in the city or in the burbs? Normally I'd be heading there to spend Xmas with my cousins in the Philly area but now that I'm on the west coast it's not as cheap to get there! So not this year. But I'll be back in Philly by next August at the latest (when my cousin gets married). Are you doing political work out there or different stuff now?

Meghann WalkerThursday, November 21, 2013 at 4:56pm PST

Hi Nick! Great to hear from you! I've been in Philly for the past year, and have been traveling back and forth between NYC and DC quite a bit. What are you up to these days? I'd love to see some of your work! Excited to see what you've been working on!

Nick MarinoThursday, October 10, 2013 at 8:28am PDT

Meghann WalkerMonday, July 18, 2011 at 2:53pm PDT

Hey Nick! Happy Birthday! Hope it's going great for you today! Give me a call when you get a chance. I don't have your number and it would be fun to catch up! 773-412-6631

844760384@facebook.comMonday, September 27, 2010 at 3:51pm PDT

Hi Nick, I really like your websites! I'm working on a comic website right now. It's very, very, new, I'm still working on putting content up for it. www.onlinecomicstore.org. Basically it only has DC stuff up because i love dc! I need your phone number again (got a new phone, blah, blah, blah). Mine is: 773-412-6631 Your friend, Meghann

4801997@facebook.comMonday, October 26, 2009 at 8:49pm PDT

other than helping justique get better, i've been cartooning and making music and podcasting and doing my day job. went out to LA not too long ago for Conrad's wedding (remember him? i know you two talked on the phone a few times). you liking TX? you've been there bout a year now, right?

844760384@facebook.comMonday, October 26, 2009 at 12:58pm PDT

Oh, bummer! I hope she's ok... Hmmm I don't know what's new with me? I got a dog a couple months ago! She's been keeping me company. We go on hikes and rollerblade. I'm trying to enjoy outside weather as much as possible before it starts to get cold. Yes, it gets could in Texas. Not too bad like Chicago, but it will get down to the 40's. Still cold for me. I think my feet are permanently frost bit, from when I used to ride my bike all through the winters in Chicago. No matter how many pairs of socks I put on, my feet would be the only thing on my body that were cold when I got home.... Anyway... what's new with you?

4801997@facebook.comMonday, October 26, 2009 at 12:24pm PDT

good! so weird... i was just wondering how you were doing a couple mins ago, so nice timing. my GF got really sick over the summer and a lot of plans got mixed up. s'new with you?

844760384@facebook.comMonday, October 26, 2009 at 12:19pm PDT

hey there! I thought you were coming to San Antonio??? How are you?

4801997@facebook.comSunday, February 15, 2009 at 5:17pm PST

San Antonio in March would be SWEET! it might end up being a little later than that but it's still gonna happen within the next few months. my mom passed away last monday. while i'm sad to lose her i'm also glad to know that she isn't struggling thru more chemo treatments and any of the pain that goes along with being sick. what's new with you?

844760384@facebook.comSunday, February 15, 2009 at 12:07pm PST

Hi Nick! How are you? So I finally did the facebook thing. I'm so sorry to hear about Bob :( I hope you and your GF are still coming to San Antonio in March! It would be great to see you and meet her. How is your mom doing? I've been keeping her in my prayers. Always, Meghann

As I'm sure some of you have already seen, I've uploaded visual reference for characters and settings. There are notes throughout, and when I have time I'll write a follow-up note you may find helpful, about small details. The folder the images are in is private, with allowances for people who are contributing. As that list hopefully expands(!), more artists will be added to the list. When you're ready to send me artwork, please email files to: MagnificentMarcel@gmail.com. Once again, thank you all!

1077923989@facebook.comThursday, August 26, 2010 at 10:01pm PDT

cool

609323093@facebook.comThursday, August 26, 2010 at 7:12pm PDT

Hey Gang - Sorry that I'm running behind with the references -- had an unusual day today, and will likely be up late working. But I'll get materials together for you no later than this weekend. Thanks again! - M!

609323093@facebook.comTuesday, August 24, 2010 at 4:44am PDT

I'd have it no other way Fred! Absolutely not a problem on the deadline. Because I'm adding to all things related to the series as I go along, once the first issue is done there will be more to reference from. (I don't want anyone to feel limited to just stock super-poses, etc..) Besides...a possible Wise Man illustration by Fred Wheaton? That's worth waiting for! 8^)

1443174438@facebook.comTuesday, August 24, 2010 at 4:31am PDT

Hey Marcel, I'm excited to contribute but I fear that I'll miss the first round deadline. I'd love to get the references so I can gear up though. Thanks for the invitation!

609323093@facebook.comSunday, August 22, 2010 at 8:44pm PDT

You're all the best! Let me answer a few questions: I have not posted any reference for HERO CORP. (my upcoming comic book) aside from what's on the facebook fan page. If you want to start getting ideas, that's actually a good place to begin. I am still putting together character reference sheets, etc., as well as working on actual art for the comic. By mid-week, I will put up some more references for most of my main cast, and give you all a quickie breakdown of who-does-what. I'd ideally like to have a gallery of illustrations similar to what Mike Allred ran in MADMAN, and what Frank Miller ran in SIN CITY, both back in the day. Four drawings will go in the first issue, and I'll likely keep doing the same as I go along. If you have time to do a pencilled/inked drawing...God bless you! If not, I can ink your work. (Or corral Wayne to do it!) Or if you want to team-up amongst yourselves...have at! We can work this out in trade (like I'm doing with Dave) or whatever you need. If you're going to send me the artwork digitally, we'll discuss formatting later. I'll let you know when I have those references available, gang. THANK YOU!

I'm a little late to the party. Has reference been posted somewhere?

609323093@facebook.comSunday, August 22, 2010 at 11:40am PDT

*exhales* Scott, if I hadn't heard from you, there would have been real trouble, buddy...and yeah, you're the official back-up artist for we-know-who!

667251308@facebook.comSunday, August 22, 2010 at 8:38am PDT

I'm in too Marcel. You know who I'm drawin'!

609323093@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 8:21pm PDT

Thank you Dan! Dave -- it's a deal! Thank you too Shawn; I still have to finish Thundergirl for you (I haven't forgotten)! You're all making me a happy man. In a manly way, of course...! Not to be greedy or anything buuuut...? 8^)

1077923989@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 6:48pm PDT

yeah count me man

591074559@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 6:13pm PDT

How about a trade, a pin-up of your character for a pin-up of one of mine? (sans deadline)

1276903976@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 2:22pm PDT

Heck yeah man, as soon as the reference is available, I'll definitely do a pin-up.

609323093@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 2:13pm PDT

That's what I'm talking about! By the middle of this coming week I'll complete a few more character reference sheets, and put them all in order for you. I may even start a group (as Mikey did for Pocket Pulp) or post a hidden folder here on FB. Anyone else...? 8^)

603198661@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 1:52pm PDT

Hit me up with some reference Marcel, and I am there!

1150803855@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 1:24pm PDT

Sure, man. Can you e-mail me a reference or two?

609323093@facebook.comSaturday, August 21, 2010 at 1:22pm PDT

Fellow Artists! You're all busy people, so I'll try to make this quick: as some of you know, I'm currently working on my next comic-book adventure, which is also my first official foray into the world of super-heroes! I'm looking for a few illustrations from some of my favorite local artists for the debut issue(s), and I wanted to ask you all if you can contribute. The first issue of HERO CORP. will be wrapping in early October - the plan is to debut it at P.I.X. - and I want to include four pin-up illustrations. If this allows you enough time, please let me know if you're interested/available. I'll see to it that you get reference material. Any drawings after the first four will be included in following issues. I know some of you are already busy with projects, and it's also your livelihood, so let me know what we can work out. I want to make it worth everyone's while, as much as possible. And for the record, you're all being asked because I respect and admire your work, and I'd be honored to include your art in my HERO CORP. portfolio! Thanks! - Marcel

515738679@facebook.comSunday, October 26, 2008 at 11:54am PDT

Yeah, I got a message from him too... No idea. He was a nice guy - lived in the neighborhood east of Western Ave. Elem. That's about all I can tell you aside from what can be easily ascertained from ones facebook profile. (Any excuse to use the word ascertain.) Wow, he's engaged to Laura Tomlinson. Did not know that! Maybe you'll get invited to the wedding...

4801997@facebook.comSunday, October 26, 2008 at 6:38am PDT

hahaha then i definitely don't know him!!!!! i was gone by 8th grade. why is he writing to me? weird!

515738679@facebook.comSaturday, October 25, 2008 at 10:24am PDT

I'm not sure he was there while you were... When did you jump ship? I want to say he came to Geneva sophomore or junior year, but I can't remember. I'd have to consult the yearbooks.

4801997@facebook.comThursday, October 23, 2008 at 7:29am PDT

whats up jon. i just got a message from andrew thurston and i don't remember him AT ALL. i'm guessing we went to school with him, right?

515738679@facebook.comMonday, February 26, 2007 at 6:18am PST

Nice, man. Sounds like everything is going well... I'm in Denver. Working for a utility/infrastructure construction company. I do a lot of estimating and some project management. I dig it - pun intended. Denver is cool. Sweet cartoons. I think I still have one you did back in the day.

I know you went there, at least long enough so I could go to a dance with you, I thought maybe you would care to weigh in :) http://www.change.org/petitions/two-openly-gay-student-s-denied-their-prom-let-the-two-mcquaid-students-go-to-the-dance-as-a-couple?share_id=AJmRyHOOmp&utm_campaign=friend_inviter_chat&utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=share_petition&utm_term=permissions_dialog_true&v=chat&x=%7Efacebook_chat_experiment

Nick MarinoMonday, July 1, 2013 at 4:55pm PDT

cool. i'm ready whenever you are!

Skipper MartinMonday, July 1, 2013 at 3:25pm PDT

I couldn't sleep. We can do it whenever.

Nick MarinoMonday, July 1, 2013 at 3:25pm PDT

sounds good. i'll be on Skype at 4:50. we can test then.

Skipper MartinMonday, July 1, 2013 at 3:04pm PDT

I'm off to take a nap. Working tonight and all. I'll pop back in at 4:30 ish.

Skipper MartinMonday, July 1, 2013 at 1:50pm PDT

Wanna test out the mic and such?

Skipper MartinMonday, July 1, 2013 at 1:50pm PDT

thing?

Skipper MartinMonday, July 1, 2013 at 1:50pm PDT

Are we doing this chattin'

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 5:27pm PDT

Great! I'll be in touch over the week to check in.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 11:00am PDT

I can easily do it from my place if you think that's easiest, no sweat. Also, yes, I have headphones for the recording. Piece of cake.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:47am PDT

oh, and don't forget to wear headphones!! it can really fuck up the audio without them. that is unless your mic is a headset mic, which also works fine.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:46am PDT

i know it sounds kind of silly, but it's actually easier to record with everybody at their own respective computers! a lot of our discussion centers around images or links or other stuff that we need to click on, and it tends to be easier to do that when every person can click at their own pace. plus, you and i would have to cozy up next to my laptop to make sure we're both getting picked up clearly. hahaha with that said, you're welcome to come hang down here with me to record if that's better for you, but it's probably better for the recording to just Skype in from your own computer wherever you're most comfortable.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:38am PDT

I'm in Glendale. So I can come to you if you want, if you think doing it in person could add something. I assume it would.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:38am PDT

I'm in Long Beach. Kaylie's in Detroit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:38am PDT

Kaylie and I normally take screencaps of the shit that cracks us up from ALF and whatever else, and post em on Tumblr. You're welcome to take some caps and get in on the fun! If you don't have Tumblr, you can email em to me and I'll post em on the AudioShocker Tumblr.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:37am PDT

Where is Kaylie?

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:37am PDT

Where are you?

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:36am PDT

I'm game for whatever you'd like me to do.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:36am PDT

I have Netflix. No prob.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:36am PDT

hahaha awesome! ALF is free to watch on Hulu. Disco Worms is streaming on Netflix. If you don't have Netflix streaming, I'll totally understand if you skip Disco Worms. All of the links are in the "Next" paragraph at the end of this week's podcast.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:34am PDT

Haven't seen Alf in decades. Sounds like fun.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:33am PDT

I can do the whole thing with ya'.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:33am PDT

Yup. Got a good mic too.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:32am PDT

I'm looking forward to it too! There are two ways you can join us: 1. You can record the entire podcast with us (which requires watching what we watch and reviewing it with us, which in the case of next week would be two episodes of ALF and the movie Disco Worms hahaha). The entire recording tends to go for 2ish hours. 2. Or you can join us for a short, separate conversation just about The More They Stay Insane. Last time we spoke, I recorded you via a phone. But nowadays we use Skype for everything. Are you on Skype?

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:08am PDT

Looking forward to chatting with you two about it.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:07am PDT

You guys really dug deep.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:06am PDT

You two were amazing.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:06am PDT

I'll MAKE it work! You bet.

Nick MarinoTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 10:06am PDT

awesome!!! how about you join us on next week's episode? we normally record at 5 PM PST on Monday. does that work for you?

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

Would LOVE to talk to you guys about it and answer your questions.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

Never expected such an in depth discussion.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

So fucking cool.

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

WHAT A REVIEW!

Skipper MartinTuesday, June 25, 2013 at 9:46am PDT

Holy shitoli!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:34pm PDT

yeah we should def talk about it at some point!

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:32pm PDT

If not no sweat.

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:32pm PDT

If you want an interview, obviously any time.

Nick MarinoMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:31pm PDT

okay, awesome.

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:30pm PDT

As long as call spoiler alert, doesn't bother me!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:30pm PDT

it'll be up tomorrow. how much can i say about the plot twists?

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:17pm PDT

Let me know when it goes live!

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:17pm PDT

Oh, excellent!

Nick MarinoMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:17pm PDT

sweet. i'm recording a podcast now so we'll talk about it on the show!!! good timing :)

honestly, i'd rather just read your story. link me!!!

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:07pm PDT

The one tale I can throw you a quick link to. The book will take a touch of doing. Upload and such. No bother, just clarifying.

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:07pm PDT

Whole book, or just the one tale?

Nick MarinoMonday, June 24, 2013 at 5:06pm PDT

send it on over!!! nickmarino@gmail.com thx for asking :D

Skipper MartinMonday, June 24, 2013 at 3:32pm PDT

Don't know if you're interested, Nick. But Outlaw Territory Vol III streets this week. A sequel to the tale I wrote back in Vol 1 "The More Things Change" is actually the final tale in the book, effectively ending the Outlaw series. It's called "The More They Stay Insane." If you'd like to read the tale, or read the whole book, podcast about it, interview, or deliberately ignore, let me know and I'll give you what you need!

That is too funny!!! i apparently have a doppelganger with blond hair and a nose piercing, who gets to hang out with a lot cooler people than I do. We both wear sunglasses on our heads so maybe we are connected in some way!! Thanks for the laugh :)

Good!!! How you been? If it was 96 then that means I met you at the theater camp before we had classes together in 9th grade. I guess that's right.... I'm writing down some stories of stupid shit i did growing up and one of the stories takes place during that summer and I couldn't remember if it was after 8th grade or after 9th.

Megan CosgroveTuesday, August 6, 2013 at 8:12am PDT

96 sounds right. Haven't thought about that in awhile-good time. How are you??

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 6, 2013 at 7:52am PDT

remember when me, you, and heather kopp were in the same summer theater program? i think it was at nazareth... anyway, what summer was that? was it 96?

well hey dude, gotta run to the grocery store. Catch ya later

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:45am PDT

its a really easy way to pull a tarantino and throw a a lot of genres that i like together

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:40am PDT

thanks man

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:39am PDT

well no matter what you've got a really strong foundation for the story! it's a solid concept.

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:30am PDT

and it doesn't necessarily need to be a cowboy or samurai, those are just the first two i thought of

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:29am PDT

that could leave it pretty open ended as to where they could go on adventures

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:28am PDT

i dig the fugitives escaping into time idea. that's really interesting. i think that's a great way to get the samurai and cowboy involved.

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:22am PDT

like i said it's still in its infancy, a lot to work out

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:21am PDT

like a fugitive escapes to 14 century japan, but the samurai is brought to where ever the fugitive came from

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:21am PDT

that or some kind of body switching travel

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:20am PDT

it'd have to be some plot furthering event for the 2 two join, not just "hey you're a local, help me out"

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:19am PDT

my thoughts were that fugitives make their way to each of the cowboy/samurai's times and the bounty hunter follows them there

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:18am PDT

so what makes the samurai and cowboy so special that the bounty hunter needs these two specific guys?

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:18am PDT

like maybe the bounty hunter is a race of people that used to be human, and for whatever reason he can jump to a dimension where humans haven't ruined themselves and their earth yet

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:17am PDT

ya pretty much

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:16am PDT

sounds pretty kickass! you should totally make that into a webcomic. are you thinking that this bounty hunter would pluck the other guys from their own times?

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:15am PDT

i'm just figuring out how and why the space bounty hunter would come across the other two and why he would bring them along on his journey

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:13am PDT

like futures and pasts melting together, man out of his element kind of stuff

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:12am PDT

pretty much

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:12am PDT

so it's the bounty hunter, cowboy, and samurai kickin it in the multiverse together?

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:11am PDT

so i'm still trying to figure out a cool story to tell without ripping off everything else cool out there

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:11am PDT

but the antihero has been done to death

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:10am PDT

lol well i don't have any of the hows or whys figured out, but a space bounty hunter somehow deputizes a cowboy and samurai and they have alternate dimension hopping adventures

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:09am PDT

go onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:03am PDT

ive been trying to work out a story i'd like to eventually turn into a web comic

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 10:03am PDT

umm kinda

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:59am PDT

sweet! the first question i like to ask my Haters collaborators is... is there a type of story you've been dying to tell (or just something fun you've been itching to draw)? i like to think of the Super Haters guest weeks as an opportunity for artists to work on something they've been wanting to do but haven't had a chance to do it yet.

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:55am PDT

heh that'd be pretty cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:55am PDT

well if you're totally un-enthused about x-men but still psyched about superheroes, i'm still looking for a couple more super haters collaborators!

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:54am PDT

i liked the wolverine. but then again, i liked x-men origins: wolverine too!!!

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:34am PDT

went and saw the new wolverine last night and while i kind of liked it, it bummed me out as well, which makes me lose motivation

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:31am PDT

nothing cool to speak of, just some xmen art

Nick MarinoTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:31am PDT

hehehe yeah, i guess so. i mean, i dunno when the next super haters story will go up... but i have a few in progress. whatchu working on lately?

Back FlipsimmonsTuesday, August 13, 2013 at 9:17am PDT

So no Superhaters or podcasts for awhile eh?

Nick Marino, Harold Behar

Kevin TragoMonday, October 21, 2013 at 9:44am PDT

Yo Nick! hey, can you text me so i have your number when you get a chance? i need your number so i can keep you and Bob Gomez in the loop for Josh's Bachelor Party. I am trying to coordinate it so we can go to the beach house and do everything down there for the whole weekend. I figured with you and Bob out of state, it would be easiest if we did it the weekend before the wedding so you guys won't have to come out here twice and could hopefully stay that whole week. Thanks brotha!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 9:50pm PST

Ok I'm just checking with my friend if he's down for VIP because I already have 2 free RSVP tickets :/ waiting on his reply now

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 9:33pm PST

I'm setting up Venmo! Then I'll send off the email.

Tiffany TruongFriday, November 8, 2013 at 9:08pm PST

Sounds great, thanks so much!

Tiffany TruongFriday, November 8, 2013 at 8:57pm PST

Tiffanytruong2010@gmail.com Do u know what VIP and what super VIP includes tho? Like what are the differences? I don't have paypal I use venmo, have u heard of it? It's the same thing but it's through your phone.

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 7:09pm PST

Yeah! I totally do. What's your email address? I can forward it to you. And are you cool with paying me through PayPal?

Tiffany TruongFriday, November 8, 2013 at 7:05pm PST

Ok forsure! Do u have a receipt or something to prove they're real? Cause I'm driving from far away and don't want to get screwed when I get there lol also what are the differences because I'm going with a friend and we wanna be able to be together

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 4:23pm PST

Yeah, I'm just selling for what I paid. They're will call tix but I already spoke with the company and they told me I can transfer the will call to somebody else. All I need to do is email them with your name if you buy them from me.

Tiffany TruongFriday, November 8, 2013 at 4:20pm PST

Gotcha. Are these printable tickets? And you're selling for face value?

Nick MarinoFriday, November 8, 2013 at 4:13pm PST

Tix cost me $97.75 total (cause one is Super VIP which has the t-shirt and extra drink ticket and guaranteed after party entrance).

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:35am PST

if only i could spell respectfully

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:34am PST

i respecfully disagree

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:34am PST

Congrats on buying literally one of the worst things I've ever drawn!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:33am PST

i didn't realize it was an oldie!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:32am PST

haha nice

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:32am PST

In case you're curious, here's where it was originally used http://ok-panic.net/garfield/

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:32am PST

So weird

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:31am PST

the more i see it the more i love it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:30am PST

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:30am PST

It'll be fine. Ok. I am dumbfounded, but okay.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:30am PST

paypal?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:29am PST

okay no sturdy backing necessary for me though! if it helps save money for you, that is

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:29am PST

I mail everything flat with pretty sturdy backing

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:28am PST

would that be possible?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:28am PST

just not creased

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:28am PST

i don't care if it gets crinkled or anything

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:28am PST

i don't want it to get folded in the process of mailing

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:28am PST

my only thing would be

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:27am PST

i like that number

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:27am PST

how about $33

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:27am PST

i want the original pleeeez!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:27am PST

NOPE

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:27am PST

Do you just want a digital copy? I seriously could not accept anything for it. It literally took me a minute to draw, and was solely done as a joke for one person.

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:26am PST

i wanna frame it and hang it next to my desk

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:25am PST

again perfect

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:25am PST

Roughly

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:24am PST

is it in the middle of the page?

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:24am PST

I shouldn't question anyone who wants to give me money, but why?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:24am PST

perfect

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:24am PST

It's on 8.5 x 11 regular paper, but maybe a quarter of that in actual size

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:23am PST

YES

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:23am PST

Seriously?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:23am PST

what size is it?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:23am PST

i want to buy it!

Eric ShonbornMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:23am PST

I think so... I don't think I put it in the trash pile

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:22am PST

?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:22am PST

do you still have it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:22am PST

your lasagna Garfield...

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:36pm PDT

Yeah. It's not a terrible thing for my first comic in 10 years

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:34pm PDT

Well regardless of what happens, it's cool that he commissioned it and it's cool that you made it!

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:31pm PDT

Which I do not, another reason I tried to shoot the idea down. I don't think he means ill, he just really thinks people are gonna clamor for this type of thing

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:27pm PDT

Yeah, that's definitely questionable territory to me. I always err on the side of not doing that. And, to be honest, it's tough to actually make any money doing that unless you have a really big fanbase who's accustomed to giving you money.

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:23pm PDT

Yep. He thinks he can recoup the money he paid me, I guess. I reminded him that we don't own this, it's fan fic. He then suggested the donation aspect

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:19pm PDT

Wait so is he insisting that you DON'T give it away? Like he wants to make money on it or something?

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:18pm PDT

And who knows. I just get so bored and want to hurry up and quit when I start making comics. Ive got a Brian John Mitchell story I've been sitting on for two years

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:17pm PDT

Thanks man. You're also now only the 2nd person I know who has heard of this movie! And I absolutely want to post this and make it available for download. It just didn't expect my friend to be an ass about it.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:15pm PDT

It's too bad you don't wanna make more comics because I REALLY enjoyed this.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:14pm PDT

I think you should definitely post it as a free PDF on your blog. I mean, a sequel to The Video Dead is definitely niche but in a really good way, as in people who watched the movie and liked it (like me) would LOVE to read it. More clicks = more fans and then you can parlay it into more commissions and so on.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 6:13pm PDT

hahahahaha!!!!!!

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:52pm PDT

This is literally fan fiction for just one person. I told him I was eventually going to put it on my blog and he told me I should suggest people donate money to be able to read it. So I got pissed off and am now giving it away to anyone who wants it, without him knowing

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:50pm PDT

So, I'll try to keep this as brief as possible. My friend loves shitty horror movies and has been asking me for years to draw an adaptation or sequel to one, just for him to read. Finally he offered to pay me enough to agree. Then I sat on it for a year, and started work on it two weeks ago. His deadline was Halloween of this year. He gave me a list of movies to pick, and he didn't want to know what I chose.

Eric ShonbornMonday, October 26, 2015 at 5:47pm PDT

Thanks, sir.

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

So what's the deal behind it exactly?

Nick MarinoMonday, October 26, 2015 at 1:54pm PDT

YO that comic fucking rocks!!!!! Awesome job.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 4:07pm PST

cool

Eric ShonbornThursday, January 22, 2015 at 3:50pm PST

Dcbs. Been using them for about 2 years now

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 3:44pm PST

what's the comics service that you use?

Nick MarinoThursday, January 22, 2015 at 3:03pm PST

it's cool. i heard Holy F*ck likes it in the bottom.

Eric ShonbornThursday, January 22, 2015 at 2:35pm PST

Eric ShonbornThursday, January 22, 2015 at 2:34pm PST

Eric ShonbornThursday, January 22, 2015 at 2:34pm PST

Got my comic shipment today. HF was all the way at the bottom of the package.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 21, 2015 at 8:35pm PST

i'm emailing you the special surprise thingy now

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 12:38pm PST

absolutely

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 12:27pm PST

Wow. Such an awesome blog post. THAAAANKS!!!! Would you be down for cross-posting it on Tumblr too? Because I would reblog the shit out of that!!!

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:49am PST

Ok! Same link! Password is: beefjerky

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:43am PST

well shit, can't seem to figure out how to get this post to you...

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:37am PST

So, this is the blog post I've worked up. I hope you can see it... Anyway, read over it, make sure I'm not out of line anywhere. http://www.shonborn.net/archives/4701

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:15am PST

i wanted that date sooooo bad but hey that's the comic book biz for ya

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:09am PST

Oh, man, Christmas eve would've been perfect. I even had a lame obvious joke ready to go...

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:08am PST

previews listed us as jan 7th so no matter what we won't be late (I HOPE!!!) haha

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:07am PST

go for it!!! the issue won't be out next Weds though... we were hoping for xmas eve, but a retailer exclusive got us to the printers a little late. it should be out new year's eve or jan 7th.

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:06am PST

Excellent. What if I posted a small teaser on my blog and talked up issue 1? Comes out next week, right?

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:04am PST

i think maybe a week or two before the release of the issue would be perfect. it's slated for the end of Feb / beginning of March. i'll be in touch about it in early Feb!

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 11:01am PST

I will wait until press time, then!

Nick MarinoFriday, December 19, 2014 at 10:52am PST

My preference is to wait until the issue is closer to release time, but I'm cool with you sharing it whenever you want. All I ask for is a heads up!

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 19, 2014 at 4:36am PST

'sall good. Glad you like it. Am I allowed to share this, or would you rather I wait?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 9:27pm PST

i meant to send that message like an hour ago haha

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 9:27pm PST

Dude, this is the fucking tits!!!!! It came out so great. Downloading now.

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:19pm PST

That's the full-sized, untouched 600 dpi version, in case you need it.

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:18pm PST

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:17pm PST

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:15pm PST

Here are the changes. If you're good, the links to download the full versions are as follows...

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:15pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 2:34pm PST

Looking forward to it!

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 11:51am PST

Cool. I'll make the changes tonight, send you another proof and then give you a link for the hi-res file.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 11:44am PST

if you wanna do the movie credits but don't have enough room, i say drop the credits for daniel and i and put yours there instead.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 11:42am PST

whatever you decide is fine with me.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 11:41am PST

yeah, i think that would be better than having two different credits on the page. the other option is to skip the movie credits and i'll just do your name in the same font as the other pinups.

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 10:51am PST

If that's all it is, I can add that to the movie style credits?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 10:45am PST

I've been running the credits along the top or bottom. So yours would be "Pinup by Eric Shonborn - shonborn.net" which presumably could run above the tagline at the top, but that might be too busy. Obviously the bottom is out. So I guess on the lower left side between the feet and the movie style credits?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 10:39am PST

Sending examples in a sec...

Nick MarinoThursday, December 18, 2014 at 10:38am PST

I fucking love it!!!!! Looks so good. The only thing that's a headscratcher for me is where I'm gonna put the credits!

Eric ShonbornThursday, December 18, 2014 at 6:52am PST

Actually, I'm gonna make some tweaks to it, so if you have anything you need changed or adjust, please feel free to let me know.

Eric ShonbornWednesday, December 17, 2014 at 9:51pm PST

Eric ShonbornWednesday, December 17, 2014 at 9:51pm PST

So... done. I'll send you the full size tomorrow night unless you need any adjustments or changes.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 15, 2014 at 10:00am PST

hahaha fuck yeah!!!!!!! sending to Daniel now :D

Eric ShonbornMonday, December 15, 2014 at 9:06am PST

flats

Eric ShonbornMonday, December 15, 2014 at 9:06am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, December 12, 2014 at 1:16pm PST

Not annoying at all!!! The more updates the better. I absolutely love watching this develop. IT'S FUCKING AWESOME!!!

Eric ShonbornFriday, December 12, 2014 at 1:10pm PST

Hope these little WIP updates arent annoying

Eric ShonbornMonday, December 8, 2014 at 9:50am PST

cool, glad you dig it so far

Nick MarinoMonday, December 8, 2014 at 9:43am PST

FUCK YEAH!!!! It's coming along great :D I'm gonna forward these to Daniel.

Eric ShonbornMonday, December 8, 2014 at 9:32am PST

Eric ShonbornTuesday, November 25, 2014 at 11:26am PST

Excellent, thanks!

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 25, 2014 at 11:04am PST

yeeeeah the book was created as a graphic novel and one of the few holdovers is that the character names aren't explicitly mentioned in the first issue. her name is Maria. Sister Maria. Sister Maria Garcia, though her last name is never mentioned.

Eric ShonbornTuesday, November 25, 2014 at 9:14am PST

quick question. Does the nun have a name? I scanned thru issue 1 again and I didn't see it.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 11:57am PST

THAT IS LOOKIN SWEEET!

Eric ShonbornThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:49am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:18am PST

sent haha

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:18am PST

email send

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:17am PST

nice!!! i love all of this process art because we can post it on the tumblr in the future.

Eric ShonbornThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:16am PST

excellent. I've got a little post-it sketch I'll send you in a bit so you can see where I'm heading with mine.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:10am PST

I'm gonna email them so I can send you a bunch at once.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:10am PST

I'll send you the other pinups we've got so far so you can see what's already gonna be in the issues.

Nick MarinoThursday, November 13, 2014 at 10:10am PST

I like where this is going :D

Eric ShonbornThursday, November 13, 2014 at 9:32am PST

Toying around with stuff at the moment.

Eric ShonbornThursday, November 13, 2014 at 9:32am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 2, 2014 at 7:21pm PST

The deadline is flexible. I know the first issue is going to the printer within a week or so. I want to get a pinup or two in there if possible! You're the first person I've spoken with about doing one. So if we can make it happen for that issue, it would be super cool. But if not, that's cool too. I'll email you the file in a bit.

Eric ShonbornSunday, November 2, 2014 at 10:42am PST

eric@shonborn.net - at this point, I think I'm okay with the characters, but I'll let you know if I need anything. What kind of deadline are you looking at for me to get something in to you?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 3:33pm PDT

what's your email? i have a page layout thingy that has the dimensions on it so you know our page size. also, i'm sure you've seen a good amount of the art i've posted from the book... but would you like any other pics for reference?

Eric ShonbornSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 1:13pm PDT

Excellent, super excited!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 11:21am PDT

cool! lemme talk to Daniel and come up with a plan for how we want to work in pinups. i'll be in touch soon :D

Eric ShonbornSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 10:52am PDT

Fuck yeah!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 1, 2014 at 10:20am PDT

Good news! We've got room in our issues for pinups. Still interested?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 20, 2013 at 6:58pm PST

for 34 horrible, errrr i mean, WONDERFUL issues

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 20, 2013 at 6:58pm PST

Phil HealySaturday, December 7, 2013 at 12:40pm PST

*Thumbs up*

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 7, 2013 at 12:40pm PST

Hey, man. Sorry I didn't send you the link directly before and thanks for letting us use your tunes! http://socktalkpodcast.wordpress.com/2013/11/18/sock-talk-podcast-episode-38-tipper-fig/

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 4:39pm PST

I believe, yes

Nick MarinoSunday, November 17, 2013 at 4:39pm PST

Yeah man go for it! I'm honored :D The episode goes live tomorrow?

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 4:35pm PST

But I think we're going to use Dora-Milaje & Never if that works

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 4:34pm PST

Hehe. Yup

Nick MarinoSunday, November 17, 2013 at 4:33pm PST

hahaha nice your second choice was the OTHER off limits song!

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:49pm PST

Feel free to make an original and we'll use it. I just want to get this one out there in the next day.

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:49pm PST

I'll let you know which one I grab

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:49pm PST

Egg Shakers defintiely was my second choice, but you have some cool jams

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:48pm PST

Thanks, man

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:48pm PST

Cool and hot damn!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 17, 2013 at 3:48pm PST

Hi Phil! I DO remember you. You're a memorable guy! I appreciate the request and would love to say yes BUT I made Adamantium for my friend's podcast, Comic Book Pitt: http://cbpitt.blogspot.com/ They use it as the intro/outro on every episode so I wouldn't feel right giving you the go-ahead for that tune. But you're welcome to use a different song from my new album if there's anything else on there that you dig. Egg Shaker is off limits (another theme for a friend's podcast) but otherwise they're good to go. Also, I'd be glad to make you guys an original song to play on Sock Talk ;)

Phil HealySunday, November 17, 2013 at 9:40am PST

Hey there, Nick. You probably won't remember me, but I met you at the NYCC in 2011 and you're a mutual friend of JB Sapienza's. He sent me your mix tape of beats and it's awesome! I was wondering if I could use 'Adamantium' for the intro and outro of our podcast, Sock Talk. Here's a link to it:http://socktalkpodcast.wordpress.com/. We'd use the tune for our latest episode. We try to get a new artist every episode. Hope everything is well and talk soon! Phil

Elsa KroeseMonday, December 2, 2013 at 2:07pm PST

Ha thanks. I end up writing it myself anyway. I lost the boy to Heartstone beta ;).

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:50pm PST

No worries. It doesn't have to be a perfect pitch! Just have fun with it and share your webcomic with everyone. From what I saw of it, you've got a lot to be proud of.

Elsa KroeseMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:48pm PST

Ah, I'm terribly sorry. I was going for humble - not posting a link in the main thread. But I now see that it was actually required. I'm quite bad at pitching my own thing, so I'm going to get back in my corner and ask my fiancee to write something for SD. I hope that's ok with you :).

Nick MarinoMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:36pm PST

Hi Elsa! Spindrift looks awesome :D And thx so much for this thoughtful message. But you gotta pitch it to us in the comments on the post! http://www.facebook.com/groups/webcomiccreators/permalink/551387338279694/ Rebecca needs to see your pitch too and I think it's only fair that everyone pitches to us in the same place.

Elsa KroeseMonday, December 2, 2013 at 1:22pm PST

Hi Nick. I read on the webcomic creators facebookgroup that you are looking for webcomics to review for your podcast. If you aren't already entirely swarmed by suggestions already, I hope you will consider reviewing my webcomic Spindrift. I'd be honored have it mentioned on your podcast. http://www.spindrift-comic.com/ It's a longform fantasy webcomic. The webcomic is currently on hold while I prepare for printing my first book/doing a kickstarter campaign - but I plan to resume updates next week or the week after that (depending on how much work I can pull off in the upcoming weeks). Thanks in advance and, finally I'd like to add that I think it's great that you guys give the webcomic community some love :D. There's so many fantastic comikers doing stuff and living in near obscurity. Things like your initiative are great!

Kurtis SassoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 1:14pm PST

I try :)

Nick MarinoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 1:04pm PST

I've watched one of Jian's interviews before with MIA. It was good!!! I'm gonna try out a few other ones. Awesome suggestion. Thx! I also really like the sound of what you do... listening to other shows to get idea for how to improve my own. SMART!!! hehe

Kurtis SassoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 1:02pm PST

Other than that I do a similar thing when I get a chance to listen to other podcasts, I critique how I could be doing mine differently

Kurtis SassoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 1:01pm PST

Honestly because of school and my show I really don't have a lot of time to listen to other podcasts... The one I do catch is called Q by Jian Gomeshi a great mix of live bands in studio, great interviews overall and a nice opening essay that is thought provoking... and it's free on CBC.ca/q

Nick MarinoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 12:50pm PST

I'M NOT SURE WHAT I LIKE!! hahaha I think that's a big part of my problem. I like reviews but only if I'm familiar with the person's work. Otherwise I get lost. Comedy podcasts feel really forced to me. And I love listening about comics but I also find it tedious because I spend most of the time thinking about what I'd be doing differently if I were hosting the podcast, I'm sure you can relate to that! What are your favorite shows to listen to?

Kurtis SassoThursday, December 5, 2013 at 11:47am PST

Depends on what you are looking for in a podcast though... Genre wise, interview style, comic book reviews? What do you like?

Claire H SterlingFriday, January 16, 2015 at 10:21pm PST

Thank bro. Me too. 󾌵

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 14, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

well i hope it happens ASAP! sounds like something great to look forward to :D

Claire H SterlingTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Oh wow. Cheaper groceries?? Sounds awsm. And Trey (the husband) would actually get us a car before we go out there. That's what he has planned anyway. As far as when we move we're jus waiting on my citizenship stuff to work out and that should be it. I would hope by next year. we were shooting for this year but I don't think its gonna happen.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 8:17am PST

i've heard good stuff about atlanta. i've got a couple of friends there who really love it. when would you make that move?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 13, 2015 at 8:16am PST

yeah, Cali can get pricey depending on where you're at. the rent is way more than i'd pay somewhere else. i don't own a car, but i'd imagine that would be a huge expense here too. but i pay way less for groceries than other places i've lived! hahahaha

Claire H SterlingMonday, January 12, 2015 at 11:05am PST

Can't believe its going on a yr.

Claire H SterlingMonday, January 12, 2015 at 11:05am PST

Lol. Like how would they act?? And we'll we planned for Cali but it doesn't look like we will be able to do that financially , so it'll more than likely be Atlanta right after sa. And she took her life and her son's in March. Right before my bday.

Nick MarinoMonday, January 12, 2015 at 9:53am PST

where do you think you two will go once the citizenship thing is done? thanks :D at first, being engaged was actually more annoying than not being engaged because certain friends and family starting acting weird about it, like all of a sudden now it's official just because there's a ring involved. people are do dumb sometimes. how long has it been since your friend died? such a bummer. i know that feeling too, like there's nothing that replaces them. they're just... not there.

Claire H SterlingFriday, January 9, 2015 at 8:18pm PST

Oh I meant the citizenship thing has been such a headache. Subject change without specifying there. Lol. My bad.

Claire H SterlingFriday, January 9, 2015 at 8:17pm PST

Thanks for ur condolences. I guess u can say I've gotten used to her not being here. So I guess that's healthy. And hell yea it been such a headache. Even worse now my husband jumps down my throat about it cause he wants me to get it done here so we can leave tx for good once it's done. So uuugggghhhhh. Wow!!! 9 months!!! I'm so happy for u 2 buddies!!! And here's to many more to come. :-). And of course after so long of having already obviously committed to each other it should be no rush to get married. Like she told me when u guys got engaged, it won't be too different, jus a different label on it for ya. 󾌵

Nick MarinoFriday, January 9, 2015 at 8:10pm PST

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. I can totally understand how that's made the past year especially rocky for you. Your citizenship thing is like never ending! That's so ridiculous. It cracks my shit up too because it's like... what are they gonna do? Deport you? You've been here for like forever!!! hahaha No date right now for Stique and I getting hitched. Maybe next year? I dunno. It's just not a big deal. It'll be 9 yrs together next month :D I dunno what the situation is with the numbers on Stique's new phone. I'll ask her soon.

Claire H SterlingFriday, January 9, 2015 at 7:53pm PST

I've been good considering that this has probably been the rockiest yr I've ever had so far in my life. Got married, best friend killed herself, and am still trying to become a citizen. Other than having dealt with my first death of a loved one Im jus trying to move forward as best I can. I have a husband to try to be the best me for now ya know?? How about u guys?? Any talk of any dates yet?? Does Justique still have my number??

Nick MarinoThursday, January 8, 2015 at 5:38pm PST

Hi Claire :D Things are chilllllllll here in Long Beach! Yeah, Justique shut down her Facebook account last June, I think. She just got sick of it. She also got a new phone last year too. I'm so happy that the stones are working well for you! That's great. How've you been?

Claire H SterlingWednesday, January 7, 2015 at 6:17pm PST

Hey Nick! How is everything?? I jus wanted to say what's up. I think Justique changed her number? She hasn't replied to me in the past and I've noticed she's not on my fb anymore for some time. Anyways, I do hope all is well. Been thinking about her. Also tell I wanna thank her again for those stones. I use them now more than ever. And understand more than ever how they work. They've been a big help this past yr.

Claire Sterling-NewtonSunday, December 15, 2013 at 8:48pm PST

Lmao.. I hear ya

Nick MarinoSunday, December 15, 2013 at 6:52pm PST

too hard to just choose one!

Claire Sterling-NewtonSunday, December 15, 2013 at 5:21pm PST

TAG! You're it! You shouldn't have commented or liked it...you fell into a trap, its a game! The person who commented or liked has to choose one of the following to put on their timeline... 1) The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live. 2) I'm an angry Elf! 3) A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together. 4) I'm secretly in love with Santa Claus...mmmm, i wanna ruffle that white beard between my toes! 5) I just like to smile! Smiling's my favorite. 6) Let's be naughty and save Santa the trip! 7) I flipped off an elf today! 8.) Santa Claus has the right idea - visit people only once a year! 9) I cheated on my ex with one of Santa's elves in Dobbies toilets! 10) I just saw a man running down my street wearing only a Santa hat! You have to play and can't tell anyone its a game. (only forward this message if they like/comment). Merry Christmas!! YOUR TURN NOW! Sorry

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:14am PST

no matter what, i'm sure it'll work out fine

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:14am PST

heh good luck!!!!!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:13am PST

I guess I'll figure out how to make another account later.. stay tuned!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:12am PST

She hasn't read Shadoweyes either yet. Nor the copy if Wet Moon 1 I bought.

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:11am PST

Probably. I think she's just too embarrassed to admit she might like it.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:09am PST

she might like it if she reads it, though...

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:09am PST

it's not for everyone!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:09am PST

She kinda just shook her head and was like "I'll support Shadoweyes, but don't know about that Holy ef thing"

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:09am PST

i mean, i don't necessarily have any experience with a situation like that but i understand where you're coming from

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:08am PST

yeah it's to have some privacy, i get it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:07am PST

hahaha!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:07am PST

I showed her Holy F*ck so not really about hiding my sick sense of humor or anything

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:07am PST

I gotcha. Sounds tricky.

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:06am PST

No. It's two things. One, it's just a little embarrassing as a grown woman to have my Mom post to my friends. And two, if she's seeing all these posts that means the people from work and the ex's family I haven't blocked yet can as well.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:04am PST

would it just be tough to talk to her about what you post? is that what concerns you?

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:03am PST

It is endearing. To an extent. God I hope she doesn't find my Tumblr. She already found DA.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:03am PST

like email notifications i mean

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:02am PST

my dad gets facebook notifications whenever i post a new pic

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:02am PST

you could create tumblr posts with screencaps of her slightly awkward comments and likes

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:01am PST

i think its incredibly endearing

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:01am PST

She never really cared what I did on FB before coming down here. Don't know what's up with that, but it's creeping me out a little.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:00am PST

*apparent

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:00am PST

she was confused by the audishocker and appalled by some of my music, but we also had a relationship where that stuff was kind of apparently early on :D

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:59am PST

my mom never really got into social media stuff before she died so i sorta dodged that one

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:59am PST

yeah the mom thing is a little weird

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:58am PST

heh heh thanks!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:58am PST

You would be invited to my new FB account of course. :)

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:58am PST

I'd prefer to stay public, but getting tired of feeling like I have to watch everything I post because of how it might be taken. Plus my Mom isn't helping with her obsessing over everything I fav or comment on.

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:55am PST

My mail dot com account allows alias emails so guess I can use one of those.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:54am PST

and decided i was going to go the public route

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:54am PST

i hit a similar juncture myself a few years ago

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:53am PST

as for starting a new one, you would need to register a new email address

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:53am PST

that's true!

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:52am PST

Plus Facebook likes to arbitrarily change security settings.

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:51am PST

Maybe, but I feel like I need a clean slate without worrying if I got everyone's settings right.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:51am PST

granted, i haven't done that since 2009, so i dunno how it works now.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:50am PST

you can just create a setting that blocks certain individuals from seeing specific posts

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:50am PST

you don't need to create a new one, necessarily

Caroline HowarthSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:41am PST

I'm thinking about creating a separate secret-ish Facebook account without Mom, work people, or other family people. Do you happen to know how to do that without deleting my current account?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:19pm PST

HAHA!

Caroline HowarthSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:18pm PST

She's been so weird since she got down here, it wouldn't surprise me if she did type something like that. But at least it would be eggs and not bananas.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:15pm PST

it was a very nice and very awkward comment. fantastic! at least she didn't go all out mom and be like "Carrie, please pick up some eggs at the store. Call me."

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 10:06pm PST

hahaha i didn't read it yet

Caroline HowarthSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 6:35pm PST

omg.. my Mom. Sorry (but at least she gave you a nice comment XD )

Nick MarinoFriday, March 27, 2015 at 7:31pm PDT

cool. thx!

Caroline HowarthFriday, March 27, 2015 at 6:28pm PDT

April Fools.. how appropriate XD I sent you an email in celebration :)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 26, 2015 at 8:36am PDT

Just got an email that it'll be out next Wed, April 1st.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 7:16pm PDT

hahaha!

Caroline HowarthTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 6:57pm PDT

Jesus F*cking Christ! (sorry, that was just too tempting ;) ) They really do like to take their sweet time, don't they? Wellll... I haven't doodled Harley Quinn in a while... >:}

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 24, 2015 at 9:50am PDT

i dunno what is up with ComiXology. i emailed them and they were like "the review process may take at least 3 months" and then i was like "okay! my bad. i just thought we should be up there by now since we're marked as 'Approved and Processed'!" sooooooooo i guess i'll maybe wait another few weeks to a month and check in with them again.

Caroline HowarthThursday, April 10, 2014 at 7:09pm PDT

8O

Nick MarinoThursday, April 10, 2014 at 5:09pm PDT

no.

Caroline HowarthWednesday, April 9, 2014 at 9:06pm PDT

Could you change the link in the audioshocker notes to my DA account instead of twitter? Long story... but there are certain people that I don't want to know about twitter or tumblr because I'll never hear the end of it.

Caroline HowarthFriday, January 17, 2014 at 4:57pm PST

I tried to post to Audioshocker and got some message about not being able to load a socket... (whatever THAT means), so if you get 2 identical messages in the spam filter from me, that's why. :-P

No pressure but if you're up to it I'm nickmarino@gmail.com. I kinda wanna share this travesty with the world (unless you wanna post it, that is!).

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:59pm PDT

Facebook is sending pics over to me weird so it's all blurry when I try to zoom in!!!!! :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:58pm PDT

AHHHH IT LOOKS AMAZING

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:56pm PDT

He is reading to small children man spreading his anus.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 7:35pm PDT

HAHAHAHA OMG PLEAAAASSEEE IS THERE A WAY YOU CAN TAKE A PIC OR SCREENCAP THAT?!?!?

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 6:47pm PDT

Travis is making us watch kindergarten cop 2 and Dolph was sitting in a tiny chair reading a book to the kids and his legs were spread apart so far you could see an outline of his anus through his tight pants.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 6:05pm PDT

HAHAHA!!!

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSunday, May 15, 2016 at 6:03pm PDT

I hope the kids attack him as if it was army of darkness.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:26am PDT

did you see that Dolph just made Kindergarten Cop 2?!?!??

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:26am PDT

he would be so good as Cable

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonFriday, May 13, 2016 at 7:45pm PDT

Now you and Travis can watch another Dolph Lundgren movie!!!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

yeah i don't remember that episode! classic stuff, though

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonThursday, February 25, 2016 at 11:01am PST

Travis actually remembers watching this show. He was really in a retarded guy's body on one of his quantum leaps. I thought it was photo shopped.

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 8:40am PST

i love his bull winkle shirt too

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 8:39am PST

that is outrageous

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonFriday, January 22, 2016 at 3:03pm PST

Travis just rented shop space for his job and the land lord had that in the bathroom. Good old small towns in the Midwest is endless comedy.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:36am PST

thanks for the suggestion

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:36am PST

i watched the first half and haven't returned to it yet. it's not bad! i'll probably finish it soon now that the holidaze are over.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:41pm PST

have you seen electric boogalo? about the terrible movies that came out of Cannon in the 70s and 80s. they look right up your alley for viewing.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 8:10pm PST

We watch Netflix and prime but I can stream stuff too. I will check it out.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:28pm PST

They've got a butt load of awesome martial arts films. A lot suck, but a lot are incredible too.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:27pm PST

Cuz if it's something where you can get a YouTube app, I think you should try this: https://www.youtube.com/user/wutangcollection

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:27pm PST

How do you watch stuff? Is it through a Roku or game system or something else?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:26pm PST

It's super boring.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:21pm PST

Nope I kept bitching so Travis shut it off. There is no action.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 7:17pm PST

Justique and I have tried to watch that one a couple of times but we always turn it off. Major props if you can get thru it!

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 6:56pm PST

Tonight we are watching Legendary with Dolph Lundgren and Scott Adkins. (Universal soldier day of reckoning) they play biologists hunting a giant iguana in China. Travis says,"they better do martial arts on the lizard to deserve the one star it got."

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 11:12am PST

youuu toooooooo!

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 11:10am PST

Your welcome. Travis thought of sending it, I just mailed it. Have a happy Christmas!

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonThursday, December 3, 2015 at 5:15pm PST

Guy uses penis to win match

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 9:07am PST

i will! she also gave me an update and said it's not quite 1:1. it's a bit less oil. basically, add coconut oil until you like the consistency.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 9:04am PST

I'm totally trying it!! Tell her thanks.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 8:33am PST

justique uses: coconut oil and baking soda with spearmint, lime, and tea tree oils she says kaolin clay is also supposed to be good in it, but she hasn't tried it. she doesn't exactly remember the ratio of baking soda to coconut oil, but she thinks it's 1:1. she also says that the flavor is a little weird at first and the lime definitely gives it a fruity loops taste. but you can do the same thing without the lime for more mint flavor.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 8:06am PDT

Nice! I'm glad they got my title right. The crazy town line is something I stole from Justique! That's one of her favorites. I'm glad it made it in there. The restaurant really was a bland Applebee's knockoff. It's like why would you start a shitty bar a grill with food even worse than Applebee's and no clear identity? Very odd. The new food they designed for them was delicious. But I crapped my brains out later that night! We had to do quick text reviews about the food a week or so after and I told them the food sat horribly with me, but I doubt that made it into the show,

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSunday, May 31, 2015 at 7:18am PDT

It seemed like their restaurant was an Applebee's from MN that white trash people would consider fancy. Plus you said the best thing,"I'm i in crazy town or something?" The stupid owner kept saying stuff like "tell me my food sucks one more time and I will punch you in the face." Then the next shot he was crying over his family. Plus it was cool that under your name it said "Nick Marino comic book writer"

Nick MarinoSunday, May 31, 2015 at 6:58am PDT

Whoa cool thanks for watching it! I haven't seen it yet! I'm at a convention this weekend. I heard Stique has a funny tude shot at the beginning. That's especially hilarious because she's rarely like that. I dunno exactly how they showed the owners, but they were pretty dumb when we interacted with them. That "town hall" meeting where we "confront" them was actually a super long and serious discussion where everyone spoke at length about what they disliked. Some of the stuff was fake and manufactured by the producers! But mine was all real. Justique had a crazy argument with a waitress that I hear isn't even in the episode. The owners and staff were mostly stupid and out of touch, just whining about how they don't like the way reviews are so popular now. And all of us were like "It's not the fucking 90s anymore. Online restaurant reviews have been a big deal for a long time! Either get with it or try another industry." But with that said, the owners were definitely being manipulated by producers with all of the fake criticisms. About half of the "critics" had never even been to the restaurant before. They just wanted to be on TV.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSunday, May 31, 2015 at 6:00am PDT

Travis and I watched that tv show you were on. I love in the beginning when they showed Your wife walking in with the look of attitude. Were the owners really that dumb or was that all an act?

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSunday, March 15, 2015 at 6:50pm PDT

Man we have been laughing all day.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 15, 2015 at 6:39pm PDT

BOOOM! Notorious J.A.B.B.A.! That's money in the bank.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonSunday, March 15, 2015 at 5:57pm PDT

Do you want to do a Star Wars spin off comic? I have a great idea. It could be about jabba the hut when he was young. He would be a skinny worm. Then he gets into intergalactic drug dealing and starts selling dime bags of space dope. He gets into pimping and next thing you know he is into gangster rap. Sort of like Notorious B I G. Before he has slave Leia he has slave that looks like little Kim from the 1990s.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 26, 2014 at 6:40pm PDT

hahahaha GREAT STORY!!! i wish I coulda seen your face for that. sorry i'm just replying now... your message went into my "Other" folder in my Facebook messages, which I check like once a year. stupid Facebook.

Nikki Jedlicka HalversonMonday, April 14, 2014 at 7:47pm PDT

Hi nick, thank you for the alf DVD set. I was soo excited to get a surprise package in the mail thinking Francisco got me a gift. I was was tearing the packaging to shreds and my smile turned into horror and I said "what the fuck is this shit!!" Now Francisco is going to make our one year old boy watch the DVDs while I'm at work.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:12am PDT

i think that might be it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:11am PDT

I actually feel like the art itself is not quite as good as CnC, but I got to do allot of cool different stuff here

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:09am PDT

awesome lines

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:09am PDT

great composition

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:09am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 11:09am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 29, 2016 at 8:12am PDT

I remember skyping to 4 in the morning, and we were in the same time zone

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 29, 2016 at 8:11am PDT

Figured as much :3

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 4:19am PDT

So I'm up whenever. TIME HAS NO MEANING ANYMORE

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 4:19am PDT

My hours are all fucked up now that I'm here by myself and Skyping with Rosie a lot.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 29, 2016 at 4:18am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 29, 2016 at 4:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 28, 2016 at 11:57pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 28, 2016 at 11:57pm PDT

Ugh well that sucks

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 28, 2016 at 4:33pm PDT

UGHHHHHHH turns out I'm staying with both Jason and Dan in Phoenix. Maybe Dave, maybe not. Kinda wish I'd known that before I said yes!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:48pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

So wasssssup

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:06pm PDT

But I have many dumb ideas

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:06pm PDT

Abe wants to do another 12 hour comic day in a month or so, so maybe I can make time

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:05pm PDT

But no has time

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:04pm PDT

yeah that's pretty great

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:01pm PDT

I also like the dumbness of the concept of knocking off something I was part of myself

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:00pm PDT

Guess so

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 12:00pm PDT

basically, you wanna draw more dicks

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:59am PDT

That sounds better

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:59am PDT

Or cockpizza

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:59am PDT

I dunno more punching maybe a dick pizza

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:58am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:56am PDT

Holy H*ll or something

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:55am PDT

A while ago i had the Idea of making a bootleg/ripoff version of HolyFuck as a joke

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

Lab

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:27am PDT

they only have 17 featured books there

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:27am PDT

i'm happy that we're a "core" book for them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:25am PDT

Ye they are cool dudes

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:25am PDT

that's sweet that they asked, though

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:23am PDT

That's what I said

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:23am PDT

HAHA NEVER

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:23am PDT

My LCS asked when they could expect HF3

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:23am PDT

i'm not sure what the deal is but we're featured in it *shrug*

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 26, 2016 at 11:22am PDT

Mh?

Nick MarinoThursday, May 26, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 3:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 3:41pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 1:11pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 12:03pm PDT

but between ALE and them its 100%

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 12:02pm PDT

99% i guess they said yes to my pagerate, but I dont have a contract yet

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 12:02pm PDT

is amerikarate ale for sure?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:51am PDT

I know im reaching for the stars

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:48am PDT

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:46am PDT

I don't mean to sound like I have a clear goal, other than making a living doing this

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:43am PDT

drawing ALE books

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:43am PDT

in?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:43am PDT

just have to make sure I don't get stuck

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:42am PDT

maybe in a couple of years, I feel my 'career' is on a pretty good track

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:37am PDT

hells yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:36am PDT

we could really kill on it if they let us get a little weird

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:34am PDT

I assumed so

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:33am PDT

it's terribly written but the idea is fun!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:33am PDT

just funny animals

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:33am PDT

I have never actually read it

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

like just funny animals or animals AND humans in it?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

spider-ham is better anyway

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

FUCK SPIDER-MAN

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:25am PDT

I did think about mixing funny animal comics and superhero comics a while ago

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:20am PDT

HF still had some of my old "maybe someday I'll draw spiderman" attitude but now I just want to draw funny shit and maybe spiderham

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:18am PDT

and a little sideways :3

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

a really nice step up

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

quite

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:12am PDT

its just very different from HF

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:06am PDT

nice

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:06am PDT

he said "Dude! Loved it! I love seeing Daniels style evolve. He keeps getting better and better. Really liked the dynamic of the characters. I can't wait to see the main bad guy.

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

showed #1 to my buddy yesterday

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

right now I just want to draw everything in this style

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

everyone says that

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

it's a MASSIVE step

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:04am PDT

I cant wait to see this book in print, it feels like such a big step in my art

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

hahaha ye I like it

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

love that panel

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

ONTO MORE BALLOONS

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

aight

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

nah, i gots roominess

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

balloon,the one on top, it would hit the captionbox

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

big what

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

anyway I trusts yous

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

but then you'd have to change the big one

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

yeah, probs the way to go

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

that would work

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

cuz the rest of the page is SO light

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

or something

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Cub struggles to free himself from the huge stooge

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

ye probably don't want it to get to crowded

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

maybe i'll do a caption instead of dialogue in that top right

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

but i think less is more in this case

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

yeah, it's good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

ohhh silly billy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

hahaha so silly

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

"Let go of me, you huge stooge!"

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

I KNOOOW

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

ugh :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

i came up with this amazing line for Cub but the balloon looks dumb :(

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

those are so cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:45am PDT

its not as crazy as the crowd scenes in CnC2

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:45am PDT

nah

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:43am PDT

OMG YOU'RE CRAZY

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:42am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:37am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

whatcha workin on?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

itching for a bitching? no one

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

who says it?

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:09am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:07am PDT

THANKS

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:07am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:06am PDT

i dunno, it just rhymes, doesn't make any sense

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 10:06am PDT

he's itching for a bitching

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 25, 2016 at 12:04am PDT

clearly, dudes not amused

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 11:50pm PDT

that's one angry Cub!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

Hahahaha such aggression

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 4:10pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:50pm PDT

it's really the best fit for you

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:49pm PDT

for shiz

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:48pm PDT

But that's how I draw muscles dudes

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:47pm PDT

Yeah it's like Jesus mixed with Rainbow Wizard, for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:47pm PDT

Good! It's basically rainbow wizard without a beard

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:46pm PDT

well i'm feeling it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:45pm PDT

Hahaha not yet but for a first try it good

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:45pm PDT

PERFECT!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 1:42pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

It's pretty standard

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

I think most did

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

but i assume it's not as simple for others haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

for us it doesn't matter because we signed over those rights

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

same for other publishers

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:04am PDT

apparently image didn't talk to its creators about it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:03am PDT

so this comixology unlimited

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 10:02am PDT

Insaaaaneeee

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:23am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:17am PDT

they look amazing

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:16am PDT

of course

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:16am PDT

Well they used to be more like my regular pages, but then I had to half the page count

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:15am PDT

yeah your layouts are NUTS!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:11am PDT

Soooo many 16 panel pages

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:11am PDT

Coloring might get insane

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 9:10am PDT

Ye it's going fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:52am PDT

sounds like it's moving along pretty well!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:51am PDT

I have like 13 pages left to pencil and ink, then I have to color and letter the whole thing

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:43am PDT

ohhh that's why they're so good!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:42am PDT

One of their storyboarders did them

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:42am PDT

how's ramon's book?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:42am PDT

ohhhh i like that, i gotta use those

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:40am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

but it's coming along nicely

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

thankssss

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

Sounds smart

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

though it'll probably be more like 5 days

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

my goal is to have about a week to just do the narration

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

thanks!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

i randomly do perfect placement and tails as i feel like it so some of that is done

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:39am PDT

Nice! Good job

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:38am PDT

i'll probs finish up balloons for #4 today

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:37am PDT

How much have you lettered?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:37am PDT

Cool cool cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:37am PDT

but they're in comic shops and it's not an awful option is we run out of others!!! plus my buds can really put me in touch with them

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:36am PDT

they're nucking futs

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:36am PDT

yeah they

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:18am PDT

They seemed crazy at SDCC

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:18am PDT

Hahah I bet

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:03am PDT

but their shit is even more disorganized than ALE

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:03am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:03am PDT

i would be shocked if 1First didn't take us

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:03am PDT

but it's always a backup

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:03am PDT

SOOOO MUCH

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:02am PDT

Kickstarter is just to much of a hassle

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:02am PDT

Yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:02am PDT

so i think we should do ALE first

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:01am PDT

but they're both super bootleg

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:01am PDT

Oh Ye guess they exist

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:01am PDT

Alterna

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 8:01am PDT

1First

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:59am PDT

Who?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:59am PDT

ohhh we actually do have other options is ALE is being weird

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:59am PDT

yeah kickstarter is an option

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

so we can make Jason feel really special by "designing" the covers with him

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

because they like to have a say in all that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

Cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

i'd say don't sweat the cover stuff unless you already have an idea for it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

Kickstarter?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:58am PDT

is there anywhere else we're still considering?

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:57am PDT

i guess so

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:57am PDT

So all in all AL is our best shot, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:56am PDT

I should probably try to come up with some cool crazy cover

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:55am PDT

Hehehe

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:55am PDT

hahahaha!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:55am PDT

YESSSS

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:52am PDT

They all suck

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:52am PDT

Okay cool, get it

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:51am PDT

i think i've told you pretty much everything! was just saying that Rosie and I brainstormed publishers from her comic shop perspective and we couldn't really come up with any new good ones.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:48am PDT

But tell me about the covers and what you discussed with Rosie

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:47am PDT

I said 'what about 80?' He said ' yes'

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 24, 2016 at 7:46am PDT

BOOOOOM!!!!! Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How'd the negotiation go?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:04pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:06am PDT

I don't think they are really

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:06am PDT

Rosie and i brainstormed for a while and i did a ton of research but we've really covered our bases

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

unfortunately, i couldn't find any other good pubs

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

so Dynamite... even worth it?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:05am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

It suits me

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

It is

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

Yeah!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

we have a book waiting in the wings and plenty of rad future ahead of us

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

I know but it's to bad

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

that's okay!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

can't wait to see what you cook up

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

The bad thing is, I won't be able to do anything big with you for like another 6 months

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

CONGRATS!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

naturally

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

Oh yeah, I'll slip in some man nips

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

AND MONIES

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

i think ehatever you do, it should be a fun gig

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

hahahaha!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Hahaha I was like ' I'll say 70 and be cool with 50'

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

I think quote him something slightly higher for your page rate so you can negotiate down to the 70. HAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

Then I do four and he does one again

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

So one dude does four now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

I think the 4

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

Fuck Ye

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

because he said "four on, one off"

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

thought i got confused for a sec... if he meant just one fill in issue or an arc of four

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

70 is on the low side for everything BUT also would be a nice chunk of change for four issues

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

That's cool, I dunno haven't talked about that yet, but I assume I'm not

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Sorry, got caught up in something for a sec there!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

But you're not lettering?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:40am PDT

I might want to bring in a flatter :p

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:39am PDT

I think

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:39am PDT

70 is the everything rate for ZT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:38am PDT

As for a page rate, if you're doing EVERYTHING...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 23, 2016 at 10:37am PDT

I think it's fucking right up your alley!!! GO FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 9:42am PDT

I think I'm gonna ask for 70 bucks a page, does that seems reasonable to you? Ofcourse I will allow him to say 'NO 50$ bitch' and bend over

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 9:41am PDT

I think I'm gonna take it on

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 9:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 9:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 23, 2016 at 9:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 22, 2016 at 11:12pm PDT

But you hanging out with Dave is getting closer

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 22, 2016 at 11:11pm PDT

I guess you can send it to dynamite

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 4:53pm PDT

It's still a bit sexier than I mean, but it's the best example of someone that's come close to it! I'll keep thinking...

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 4:52pm PDT

The Pro is probably the best example I can think of for the ironic sexy cover idea.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 2:16pm PDT

in fact, i can barely find print offerings from them!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 2:16pm PDT

hmmmmmm Alterna Comics doesn't seem to be doing a lot lately.... more digital issues

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 2:06pm PDT

http://www.dynamite.com/htmlfiles/editor.html

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 2:06pm PDT

Also, what about Dynamite? We could just send them one of the pitch books I printed up.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

Looking back over our publisher list to see who we may have missed. I can think of one in particular... Alterna.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 22, 2016 at 9:09am PDT

cool, thanks!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 11:19pm PDT

Looks good, good call

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 7:27pm PDT

lettering this panel and it felt like the character was blending into her costume a bit, so i tried out a different skin tone for her. thoughts?

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 7:26pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 5:08pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 2:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 10:43am PDT

INCOGNITO!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 21, 2016 at 10:31am PDT

GOOOOOOOOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 19, 2016 at 11:13am PDT

How's lettering going?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 19, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

He always mails later in the day, so it's always a wait

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 19, 2016 at 10:27am PDT

Haha ye, let's see what it is.

Nick MarinoThursday, May 19, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

"Dude, I got that thing for you!!!!"

Nick MarinoThursday, May 19, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

HAHAHA!!!! Two years later

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 19, 2016 at 7:12am PDT

Dave emailed me saying he might have a thing for me, But it's not like I've never hear that before from him :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 3:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 17, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

That would be rad

Nick MarinoMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:30pm PDT

Hopefully in a year or two we can get in on an anthology type of thing with them

Nick MarinoMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

Probs

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

Of course! But I feel like they might be a bit to dark right now

Nick MarinoMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:26pm PDT

Dude, that would be super fun, right? A TMNT short story?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 16, 2016 at 12:25pm PDT

NIIIIIIIIIIIICE!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 16, 2016 at 11:49am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 16, 2016 at 2:00am PDT

Thank you!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:37pm PDT

you've made some terrific choices there. looks so kickass. i love the panels when you're showing the medical shit happening with starbursts and speed lines. so cool.

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:36pm PDT

and HOLY SHIT!!!! you packed those pages full of panels and they look amazing!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:35pm PDT

that fucking green arrow villain is INCREDIBLE

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:35pm PDT

i'm still thinking of examples!!! might take me a day or two. i'm really just getting back into the swing of shit this week, finally starting to feel a bit better. but then may 16 is stique's bday so i'll probably be all grumpy tomorrow too! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 2:15pm PDT

So... Many... Panels

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 2:15pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 9:57am PDT

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/63/GREEN_ARROW_13.jpg

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 9:15am PDT

Did you find any examples?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 8:34am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 6:01am PDT

BYES!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 6:00am PDT

And mom

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 6:00am PDT

Ok gtg hang out with Amanda's aunts

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:59am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:59am PDT

Yes that would help, show me what you have in mind

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:58am PDT

i'll try to think of some cool visual inspiration

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:58am PDT

OF COURSE!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:55am PDT

I gotta think about all this and try to get a concise opinion

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:54am PDT

Derp

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:53am PDT

we bend the rules! different costume

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:52am PDT

Ye but how, she no have cleavage in her outfit

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:52am PDT

HAHAAAA

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:52am PDT

"but she has some cleavage too so it's a boobs cover!"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:52am PDT

Yes

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:51am PDT

and her "dick" is way bigger than his even though he has on a strap on too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:51am PDT

Maybe a canon

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:51am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:51am PDT

like Cougar vs. Father Fornicator

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:51am PDT

I'm SO INTO THAT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:50am PDT

I just want to draw a rocket strap on

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:49am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:49am PDT

"BUT IT STILL HAS BOOBS!"

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:49am PDT

to the point where the grotesque outweighs anything that could be sexy

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:48am PDT

or mixing nasty shit with the sexual elements

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:48am PDT

sort of along the lines of underground comix

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:47am PDT

it could work, especially as an in joke

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:46am PDT

but i'm thinking

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:46am PDT

what i'm suggesting is way risky and probably nearly impossible to pull off

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:46am PDT

For me it was

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:45am PDT

sure! i think that was part of what we were trying to do by turning ONS into CnC

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:45am PDT

Plus I am a little weary of the hahaha gay effect

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:43am PDT

Yup

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:42am PDT

with the beefcake covers and the cock

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:42am PDT

i also feel like we already did that

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:42am PDT

yeah, that's definitely an option

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:42am PDT

The easiest way would be doing dude pinups

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:41am PDT

Yes

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:41am PDT

i wanna troll the assholes who make and buy those gross Danger Zone variants

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

Same

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

also, i only wanna do something that we both feel good about

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

Hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

Fun is important

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

but more grotesque than sexy!!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

sexua or TNA? sure

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

is i don't think they should necessarily be sexy

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:40am PDT

i think the thing i'm want to communicate the most

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:39am PDT

i'd love to see your ideas for it!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:27am PDT

Maybe I should just try and make a subversive TNA cover to try shit out

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:26am PDT

She did say for her taste

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:25am PDT

I just realized that Amanda might be like the worst person to ask what's cool, she thinks Amanda Conner is to much

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:23am PDT

But if I have to chose between sexy and respectful I chose the second

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:22am PDT

I understand

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:21am PDT

than i am in being irreverent and subversive

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:21am PDT

or respectful

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:21am PDT

i'm less interested in is being sexy

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:20am PDT

cool, well it's just one possible idea

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:08am PDT

I mostly go by what Amanda thinks

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 5:06am PDT

But doing respectful yet sexy art is pretty hard

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:55am PDT

Oeeh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:54am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:54am PDT

new catch phrase

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:54am PDT

also

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:54am PDT

i'd have to go through my friends list and think about it a bit harder

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:51am PDT

I know lesbians but they don't art

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:51am PDT

I know!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:51am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:50am PDT

hahaha i'm sure we do!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:50am PDT

Do we know any lesbians?

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:47am PDT

she'd be good

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:46am PDT

YASSS

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:42am PDT

I think we should talk to kaylie

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:40am PDT

truth

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:40am PDT

Hahaha enough people atleast

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:39am PDT

but sex and violence? EVERYONE WANTS THAT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:39am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:39am PDT

but it's also kinda tame now that i think about it!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:39am PDT

doing a modern and silver age variant thing is cool

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

like we did with most of the original Holy F*ck variants

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

Ye I understand

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

just brainstorming about how we can "play the game" but do it our way

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

Mhhh

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

definitely

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:38am PDT

I guess it's really based on who you get to do it

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:35am PDT

i like that!!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:35am PDT

OHHHHH

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:35am PDT

i guess my thing is i don't want to dismiss it out of hand because 1. it would be awesome to have those at Danger Zone, and 2. i really think there's a way ti could work because we know how to toe that line

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:35am PDT

Amanda liked the idea of ladies doing the covers, but the also thinks the should have 'submissive ' men

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:33am PDT

like if they're doing really not sexy stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:33am PDT

like if they

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:33am PDT

i feel like there might be angle

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:32am PDT

Don't think there is

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:31am PDT

that's what i'm trying to figure out! if there's a way we can do that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:31am PDT

Unless we can really make a feminist statement with them

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:30am PDT

I don't want todo boob variants

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:30am PDT

i wonder if there's a way we can have the best of both worlds cuz it's a book with sex as a theme but the sex is a complication somehow make it explicit without being sexy just awkward we could be really obvious with them too like SUPER BOOBS VARIANTS "you want tits, we got tits" variants "would you like tits with that?" variants "here you go, perverts" variants all drawn by women too

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:28am PDT

like consistently

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:28am PDT

those awful boobs variants for the Danger Zone books sell out

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:28am PDT

so apparently

Nick MarinoSunday, May 15, 2016 at 4:27am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, May 7, 2016 at 2:30pm PDT

Ohhh so many looks! That's one stylish platypus

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, May 7, 2016 at 12:45pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, May 5, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

It's pretty good, I would try to make if feel more as if the count comes from the place where the hand hits the face

Nick MarinoThursday, May 5, 2016 at 10:11am PDT

:D

Nick MarinoThursday, May 5, 2016 at 10:11am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, May 5, 2016 at 8:19am PDT

I'm out of town from today through Monday, fyi

Nick MarinoThursday, May 5, 2016 at 8:19am PDT

That sounds like a lot of America, lots of places where people act like you're inconveniencing then just by doing normal shit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 4, 2016 at 11:16am PDT

Not really, at restaurants they usually just make you feel like you are in the way

Nick MarinoWednesday, May 4, 2016 at 8:58am PDT

Arghhhfff! Got a good story about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, May 4, 2016 at 7:25am PDT

People here... Are not very polite

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 1:28pm PDT

nice!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 1:04pm PDT

That said, ZH actually earns me monies

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:49pm PDT

so different

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

But I'm happy with it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

It is, it's just funny how different the dutch market is

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:22pm PDT

Small scale but so rad!

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:22pm PDT

THAT'S RAD, THOUGH!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:20pm PDT

Ohhhh the dutch comics market. It's a big deal for my publisher that we sold over 200 ZombieHipsters books

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 11:28am PDT

Burn the place down!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 8:34am PDT

The long boxes were also stacked

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 7:53am PDT

Vigilante justice

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 7:53am PDT

Or better yet

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 7:53am PDT

Someone needs to be arrested

Nick MarinoTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 7:53am PDT

Oh nooooooo! The cardinal sin of backissues.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, May 3, 2016 at 12:41am PDT

I'm cool with back issues, if they are organized

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 3:38pm PDT

but some shops like that are scarrrrrry

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 3:38pm PDT

ohhhhh i like backissues

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Hidden treasure was one of those nightmarish tiny back issue stores

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 1:27pm PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 1:06pm PDT

NOT AT ALL

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 12:56pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:14am PDT

FAMOUS IRISH BBQ

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Gon get me some B-B-Q

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

It sucked I walked out

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

I wanna hear about that shop later!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

K enjoy dinner and Dublin!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

Yes

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

"Look, here's the rub... we haven't made a penny on Holy F*ck or the sequel. We're not trying to hustle art out of you. We'd love to be paying out awesome money for covers! But it just doesn't make sense. If you're down for it, we'll promote the shit out of your cover and hook you up with as many comps as you want. If it starts to turn a profit, we'll break you off, of course. And we totally understand if this is a no-go for you. We just love your art!"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

But Ye I gotta go soon, dinner time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

As do I, but I think IF we would do this we should make it a rule

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

Yeah i mean i think it's really simple...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

A "least we could do" type deal

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Can we offer comps?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

That's cool no Dan

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Ugh ok

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

it's too much for me

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

he really holds grudges

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

if i ask him to be on a panel and he doesn't like the moderator, i have to hear him whine about it for months

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

I'd have to color it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

I said maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

he bitches about everything

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

he's so high maintenance lately

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

Ughhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

I might even be cool with a Dan cover, maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

Aight

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

I can think of a bunch of other peeps too

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

https://twitter.com/LochNessLives/status/669027429579554816

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Who's Loch Ness again?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Nils from The Evil Life

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

But yeah I'd like another Aaron cover

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Riley Schmitz and Loch Ness probably for sure

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

I have some friends who would probably do freebies

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

Ye agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

I could ask my friends they will probs do it for free/cheap

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

I was hoping for IDW cuz they would probs pay for variants

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

YEP!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

As for variants. Dean owes us one

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:47am PDT

I FEEEEEEEEL YOU

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:46am PDT

That's why #4 -5 took ages to color

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:45am PDT

I understand I have the same thing

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:30am PDT

I enjoy writing them but once all of the other stuff is done, i'm like "well the fun part is over!" so it takes me longer hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:30am PDT

ya know, being enthused about a book once the heavy lifting is done

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

I'm struggling with timing

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

I've been awful about finishing that

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

I

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

Oh it's all good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

I'm just bustin balls, you know how I rolls

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

That's cool

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

if they liked it but had suggestions I was gonna take em

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

TBH i was waiting a bit to see what IDW thought of it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

i swear

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

i know what year it is

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

i mean

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

i eman

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

2016

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

HAHA

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

It's all part of my larger 2015 lettering burnout

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

Boooo

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:24am PDT

Still lettering

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:24am PDT

I've been a bad boy.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:24am PDT

NOOOOOOO

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 10:02am PDT

You lettered all issues, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:56am PDT

I hate the waiting

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:56am PDT

Yes that's good, so we got that out of it! We can send em rainbow wizard in June

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:54am PDT

HAHAH

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:54am PDT

Also, I feel relieved not waiting to hear back from anyone

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:54am PDT

And truthfully I find the challenge exciting so I did enjoy that part of it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:54am PDT

Which rocks

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:54am PDT

Well both Z2 and IDW want to see stuff from us again

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:53am PDT

atleast we got some attention

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:52am PDT

We really tried... I think

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:51am PDT

Probs

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

It's just our sophomore slump, I guess!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

and they've passed on it

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

We've put this book in front of A LOT of people

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

Truthfully

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

I think you're totally valid in what you're saying

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:50am PDT

Butttt I might be complaisant

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:49am PDT

People like HF but only AL would have ever put it out

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:49am PDT

Hahaha I dunno man

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:45am PDT

It completely fucks up my gauge of what other people like!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:45am PDT

CURSE MY "BAD" TASTE IN THINGS!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:45am PDT

case

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:45am PDT

Hah yeah that's probably the cade

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:43am PDT

I guess I have a pretty strong feeling that the humor might be a bit to much for most

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:42am PDT

Maybe

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:40am PDT

I might be a bit less into the book just being out there but I pretty much feel the same way.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:39am PDT

HAHAHAHA I UNDERSTAND!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:36am PDT

For me it's like this 1. I am lazy, I just want that book out there. 2.they have been annoying but not all bad

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:34am PDT

I understand

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:34am PDT

We have 2

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:33am PDT

That's just my war plan! HAHAHA

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:33am PDT

2. The finished book so they can't try to change the later issues.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:32am PDT

1. A tight plan for covers that includes a scheme for variants (at least one an issue).

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:32am PDT

*two thigns

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:32am PDT

If we do Action Lab again, which I'm personally not in a rush to do, I think we need to things in place...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:31am PDT

Yeah, we haven't gotten to Boom or Aftershock. I THINK we hit up everyone else.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:27am PDT

I am cool with pitching to AL again... I would have preferred IDW, but atleast we tried

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:26am PDT

I am afraid we have, I don't know for sure but we might have...

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:24am PDT

Obviously Action Lab is an option but I wonder if we've exhausted all others?

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:24am PDT

What you do in the later issues is even more incredible and peeps need to see it.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:24am PDT

I should finish it up and do another round of pitches, probably.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:24am PDT

I dunno!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:07am PDT

But on the CnC thing... What now?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:03am PDT

I went to hidden treasure

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, May 2, 2016 at 9:01am PDT

No oh well

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

They liked your art, though!! Just not our story.

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, May 2, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

No IDW <sniffle>

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, May 1, 2016 at 1:31am PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:43pm PDT

Listening to this autobiography of Anthony Kiedis and it's actually making me dislike him and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. THEY WERE SUCH SHITHEADS!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:43pm PDT

Yeah, I dunno, whole thing is a weird place to be in. It should be like the most productive time of my life but it's definitely not!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:41pm PDT

It's the worst

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

Yes happy times

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT

Probably not

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 30, 2016 at 1:36pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:08pm PDT

despite how cool i think they are

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:07pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:07pm PDT

not even the cost

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 1:07pm PDT

oh yeah that's why i don't buy vintage action figures

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 11:19am PDT

I guess, but I also drew titties on a cover that didn't need it for money

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

i mean, it wasn't your preferred vision but it's fun and cool and i think that's great

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 27, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

Thats why i only drink when i'm on "vacation" or at a con or something

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

Beer will do that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 12:16pm PDT

I might take a the rest of the week... And most of next week because I will be in Dublin of from this comic, I kinda hate the last to pages I have done

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:56am PDT

Also beer seems to fuck my plans up

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:44am PDT

TIME TRAVEL!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:35am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:32am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

Just coloring that cover ment one page was a day delayed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

Ye but there is not enough time to work on bathetic

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

That sounds good!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

I try to finish one page every other day then do the illustration in the time I have left and school stuff I do on the weekend

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

I kinda have a schedule

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:37am PDT

Aww bummer! I hope the non fun stuff wraps up quick.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:35am PDT

It's not much fun anymore 😛 but they all need to get done for their own reasons

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:33am PDT

It's to much

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:33am PDT

Daaaaaaaaamn! Busy schedule. Awesome.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:17am PDT

And then there is school

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:17am PDT

Buttttt I also have to work on the comic about my brother, work on a piece for an exabition and do 3 more illustrations for a paid thing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 10:15am PDT

I have to scan, clean and letter like 10 pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:46am PDT

How's Bathetic going?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:35am PDT

good :)

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:34am PDT

I feel like that says it all right there!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:32am PDT

I actually kinda created is as a "what would an eight your old me like, and be allowed to watch"

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:31am PDT

with that said, this story began as your vision and I want to make sure the ultimate version of that vision is fulfilled if we take it further! So if that means making it a mature readers thing or at least not an all ages, I'm fine with that. I just care about the right story being told.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:30am PDT

buttttttt

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:29am PDT

BUT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 26, 2016 at 9:29am PDT

Hmmm great question! My gut says sure, why not. Or rather... It doesn't need to be any different in tone than it already is. There's a slight naughtiness to it and potential for more but it's not profane or explicit and i think that works.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:53pm PDT

But then the question would be, should it stay all-ages?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:52pm PDT

Nice!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 3:27pm PDT

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeep! the good news is that the few people who've seen Rainbow Wizard (Kelly, Rosie, Stique, and my buddy Brandon who's also pitching to Nick) really liked it! i think the appeal is there even if Nick doesn't want it.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

Now we wait

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

Yup

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 1:04pm PDT

Haha it's all good! Hopefully this is just the first of many things like this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

Fuck no I was to tense

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:39pm PDT

Did you take a screencap???

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 12:39pm PDT

Haha the sky throne was good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:17am PDT

I think we put our best foot forward and from where I was sitting, on my sky god throne, they seemed to like it.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:16am PDT

Haha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Let's hope the rest of the pitches fail and we'll be golden

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

I think we did well

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

Yeah!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

Awkward at times, but super fun!!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

That was fun!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

Ahhhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:30am PDT

Here goes nothing?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

Coo

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

Err 730

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

But I think 1030 will be fine at this point

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

Ok

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:25am PDT

Won't be able to :( got too much stuff to carry!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:24am PDT

Tell me when you are going in

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:23am PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:23am PDT

No one must eat breakfast before work here. They're all I'm the kitchen getting food.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:22am PDT

Aight

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:22am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:21am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:17am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:15am PDT

Hahaha nice

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:14am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:14am PDT

These chairs are the exception... they're made for Shaq

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:11am PDT

You usually do right?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:11am PDT

Yah probs except for the giant chairs, I hate feeling like a Muppet when I'm sitting

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:10am PDT

That's how you would do interior design

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:09am PDT

Nice

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:09am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:08am PDT

Wish I could be there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:08am PDT

Nice

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:08am PDT

Decorations are super goofy, enormous chairs in weird shapes, etc.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:07am PDT

Hahaha why?

Nick MarinoMonday, April 25, 2016 at 10:07am PDT

This place is ridiculous

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:48am PDT

Ugh starting to get anxious

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 25, 2016 at 9:46am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:56am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:56am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:52am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:51am PDT

not that shitty "expand or contract" slider thingy

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:51am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:51am PDT

i finally learned how to use the "expand" command in the selection menu

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:51am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

UGH yes

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:50am PDT

to just writing, eventually no more lettering or other stuff like that

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:49am PDT

progress

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:49am PDT

i think that's where i'm going to slowly

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:45am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:45am PDT

but good for my heart

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:45am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:45am PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:45am PDT

GOOD!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:36am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:35am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:30am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:29am PDT

dumdum dum dum

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:29am PDT

they're the villains

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:29am PDT

so the severed boobs come to life

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:28am PDT

the cancer is actually a demon

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:22am PDT

like in a daniel clowes style

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:22am PDT

so no one can ever draw them again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:22am PDT

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:22am PDT

double mastectomy?

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:22am PDT

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:14am PDT

breast

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 8:14am PDT

so HF 3 maria gets breat cancer

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:47am PDT

He also went for the boob window

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:46am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:20am PDT

Oh wait Nils read it too. But I know for a fact that the twins, Shonborn, and Jeffrey didn't read the whole book. But Conley read it and I think he still sexed up Maria...

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:16am PDT

Yeah and none of them had read the book either!! They were all done off of our preview images. I think Angela was the only one who had actually read the book.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:12am PDT

I dunno allot of pin ups also had the boob window

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 7:11am PDT

Hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 6:52am PDT

I think that guy drew it cuz he wants me to hire him. He messaged me about the Russian pirate, then asked if I need an artist, then was like "I'll punch that pirate in the face if I see him!" And I was like "noooo! Shake his hand! He translated our entire miniseries."

Nick MarinoSunday, April 24, 2016 at 6:48am PDT

I dunno, at what point does that image ever actually represent Maria, ya know? It's vaguely like Mendoza's cover, which is it.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, April 24, 2016 at 12:14am PDT

Hahaha he might have read it

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 23, 2016 at 5:46pm PDT

that guy's pinup is well drawn but clearly he didn't read the book, which is annoying because he told me about how much of a fan he was.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 23, 2016 at 5:46pm PDT

love it. gorgeous work.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 23, 2016 at 5:45pm PDT

OH SHIT ROCK-N-ROLL SESAME STREET IS SICK!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 23, 2016 at 2:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 5:16pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

Wanna call?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

so we're living in the same city

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:03am PDT

my gut instinct is to change the setup of our lives a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

Ye that's just when Amanda makes me go out

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:02am PDT

i don't remember you twerking on anyone but i believe you

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

And I twerk on dudes because I feel awkward about twerking ladies

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

like the companies and the interviewers and all that shit never emailing you

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:01am PDT

OMG yeah we can totally play up stuff like

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

Hahaha Ye

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

And that as an artist I get passed over in interviews

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

we really did go to a hookah lounge and listen to other cartoonists talk about their love of goth clubs and bondage bars or whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:00am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

you really did exhibit at a bluegrass festival

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

and we have plenty of actual experiences to pull from

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:59am PDT

yeah like we can exaggerate our personalities in whatever way we want to build an odd couple scenario

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

And I'm grumpy and you are positive

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

it makes it easier to do the thing that a lot of musicians have done, like Conchords or Tenacious D

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

but now that comics are "sexy" with conventions and so on

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:58am PDT

most comics stuff like that is auto-bio mostly serious snarky kinda stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

is that we'd become these fictional characters in an over-the-top story about us making comics

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:57am PDT

what would, in my opinion, set us apart from other comics stuff, though

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

Watch it like twice a year

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

that has aspects of what i'm thinking

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

Love it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

i saw that recently

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

American Splendor too

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

and like

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:56am PDT

of course

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

And even with ok production the fact that we live so far apart is a pain

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:55am PDT

Yeah

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

cuz whats the point of that?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

like a crap webseries with crap acting

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

is make a shitty version of it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

the one thing i wouldn't want to do

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:54am PDT

right?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

Ye, I dunno TV would probs be better, but comic is way easier

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:53am PDT

but who knows until we actually figure out the plot and the characters

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

and maybe it would end up being an awesome comic book

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

even the sunny guys were actors

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

Hahaha same

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

i'm not a professional actor

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

uhhhhhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

but then i was like

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:52am PDT

at first i was like "we could pitch it as a TV show with us in it!"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

Sure!

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

at least we'll figure it out as we go

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

if we start developing the story

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

my main thought was

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

i dont either

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

Just don't know how I would like to do it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

but in this fictionalized environment where we can make anything funny

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:51am PDT

Same for me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

I agree

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

trying to make their work

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

i like those stories about artists

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:50am PDT

but for realz

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

Hahaha nice

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

thats not far from what im thinking hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:49am PDT

Well I want to make a sitcom staring a muppet who draw comics

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

but like a fictionalized version of us as loser comic book creators

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

Mhhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

i dunno if it would be best as a comic or as a video thing

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

i think it would be interesting to try and do a story about us making comics

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

Love them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

Yes

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:48am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:47am PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:47am PDT

and this is a WAAAAAAY out there idea

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:47am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:44am PDT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpEfp9XcAjw

Love it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:42am PDT

Oh that one

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:42am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:40am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:39am PDT

Ehhhh

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:38am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:37am PDT

Ah cool

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:37am PDT

kahlil didn't say that about the creator summit. i just saw in the news that they're having one and i figure it might change things.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

Hahaha nice

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

oh yeah. and he was confused as hell too.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

Ugh allright

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

Did he find it funny?

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:36am PDT

but IDW has a creator summit this weekend so that might push back their decision about us

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:35am PDT

i heard from Kahlil at IDW yesterday. they got the catnip joints.

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:35am PDT

i'm making 8 mini comics

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:35am PDT

okay, cool. so i guess we're good then! i already sent the art to the printer and it's done

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:27am PDT

It more as talking points

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 10:26am PDT

Oh agreed

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:43am PDT

yeah, i dunno what to do. i think the doc makes for good talking points but part of me feels apprehensive about giving it to them as pitch material.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:36am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:36am PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:36am PDT

i dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:29am PDT

So what are we doing about his

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:29am PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:22am PDT

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:22am PDT

haha and the verdict is... i don't like it

Nick MarinoThursday, April 21, 2016 at 9:10am PDT

k, so i'm gonna do another pass on that doc and see if i can make it better. will send to you soon.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:41pm PDT

Aight I gtg soon

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:18pm PDT

i like that too

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:05pm PDT

Mhhh I do like that it seems like we have thought every second trough

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:04pm PDT

thanks! i feel like maybe it needs to be tweaked, but i dunno how

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:03pm PDT

Maybe I dunno I like that you did it tough

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:03pm PDT

to me now, that is

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:02pm PDT

seems pretty unecessary

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:02pm PDT

reading back over that write up i did

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 11:01pm PDT

goooooooooood mornnnning

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 10:47pm PDT

Hahaha good stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 6:40pm PDT

some of it we've talked about but other parts of it are totally me interfering the tone that you intend for the cartoon. i hope i'm onto the right line of thought there!

okay, so i kinda went off on a weird tangent with this...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 2:30pm PDT

song lyrics and links to the mp3s

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 1:04pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 1:01pm PDT

my battery was dying

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 1:01pm PDT

i'm back

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 1:00pm PDT

Nick Marino missed a call from Daniel Arruda Massa.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:59pm PDT

Bad "

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:59pm PDT

Maybe ad connection

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:59pm PDT

Nick Marino missed a call from Daniel Arruda Massa.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:58pm PDT

Daniel Arruda Massa called Nick Marino.

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:45pm PDT

without necessarily going overboard with describing the actual plot aspects of our idea

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

we do our best to communicate the tone of the world

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

so what if

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

okay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

And that's cool

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

but they just wanna worry about the 3 minutes

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

we have a whole world in our heads

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

it's like...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

yeah i know what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:43pm PDT

The fact that it's so focused on a 3 minute animation makes it harder, like I don't want them to feel like we wouldn't be happy with just those 3 minutes

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:41pm PDT

I wanna make them happy, but it's hard to anticipate how...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:40pm PDT

like what part of it?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

This is hard

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:37pm PDT

yeah, pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:36pm PDT

Yes like how can we make these 3 minutes feel like a whole world

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:35pm PDT

so if we did give them more, i guess it would be about the feel of the world and the personalities of the characters

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:34pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

yeah and i'm totally cool with that if you think it's better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

Or not... I think they might just want to hear stuff that has to do with the short

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:28pm PDT

lemme find em...

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:28pm PDT

we could give them the more detailed descriptions

Nick MarinoWednesday, April 20, 2016 at 12:27pm PDT

i wrote up some big juicy descriptions that had to be heavily edited for the submission form

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:16am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:15am PDT

Ye....

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:15am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:14am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:14am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:13am PDT

okaaaay!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:13am PDT

Do it!

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:13am PDT

anyway, if you're cool with everything then i'm ready to send it off

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:13am PDT

i feel like one of the biggest things we need to do is make this personal and show that we're cool to work with

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:12am PDT

Why not I guess

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:12am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:10am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:09am PDT

how about this

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:04am PDT

You don't have to do a cover letter, let's just give them what they want and then take it from there

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, April 12, 2016 at 12:04am PDT

I guess type of show could be 2d

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:47pm PDT

If they like the pitch, they'll ask us for more info. I dunno what a cover letter will really do for us in that regard.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:46pm PDT

Honestly, I'm kind of on the fence about it.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:46pm PDT

I could include a cover letter with our comic if you think it's necessary.

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:27pm PDT

i dunno how we're supposed to hit 1500 characters for the "about us" part and still include URLs like they want!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:27pm PDT

i got it down to 498 characters

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:27pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 10:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 10:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 10:54pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, April 11, 2016 at 10:54pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, April 11, 2016 at 11:12am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PDT

It's just kinda hard to write a concise strip about it, as the movie is such a mess

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 8, 2016 at 12:45pm PDT

Not at the jokes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 8, 2016 at 12:45pm PDT

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 2, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

I'm open to any suggestions you have to improve them!

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 2, 2016 at 2:44pm PDT

Right now, they have different corners and colors, not to mention the GZZH! at the beginning and end of each intercom thingy.

Nick MarinoSaturday, April 2, 2016 at 2:42pm PDT

Do you feel like they need to be more distinct as they are right now?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 2, 2016 at 2:40pm PDT

Just make sure the naration boxes are destinct from the intercom

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, April 2, 2016 at 1:46pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:25pm PDT

by the time they read the pitch, you'll have the hi-res art again

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:24pm PDT

the art is done but you couldn't get the files off of there so we had to use preview images

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:24pm PDT

the day you finished coloring the final page, you spilled coffee on your computer.

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:23pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 3:23pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 2:31pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:45pm PDT

I think it's connected to specific file locations

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:42pm PDT

yeah i'm not seeing much yet

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:41pm PDT

Probably very specific files

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:41pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:40pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:39pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT

Guess so?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT

wait... as in you might actually use it but not know it?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT

Dont understand iCloud

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT

i'm guessing you don't use icloud or whatever

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:36pm PDT

any chance you exported the files to anywhere?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:36pm PDT

You can try

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:36pm PDT

my typing is shit

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:36pm PDT

wow, sorry

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

*do

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

but we could so text underneath

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it's too small to letter it like a comic book

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

but maybe that won't matter?

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it is, yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

Ye

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

But it's tiny

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it's kinda low res

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

it

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

we still have all of the art

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

here's the thing

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

hold on

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

well

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

BUTTTTT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

not big

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

k

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:33pm PDT

Atleast

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:33pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:32pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:32pm PDT

i seeee

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:32pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:32pm PDT

They'll give me the computer back and then i can get the files

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:32pm PDT

No

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

ohhh so they'll send you your files but not until the repairs are done

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:31pm PDT

I had it send to the factory to get it fixed

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:30pm PDT

i don't know too much about what happened with your comp stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:30pm PDT

no way at all? like did you lose them?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:30pm PDT

Okay soooo that's fucked

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:29pm PDT

Fuck

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:18pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 1:17pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, April 1, 2016 at 7:35am PDT

Sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:36pm PDT

Yay fun times I will try to mail you the RW logo

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:34pm PDT

milkyyyy

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:34pm PDT

Tomorrow I'm gonna get my Milk Mustache on.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:33pm PDT

It's all gravy, baby! Was hanging with Neal for a couple of days.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:25pm PDT

Ohhh sorry cool awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:24pm PDT

Yuppers, I'm on it tomorrow. Just got back into town about an hour or so ago.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 11:15pm PDT

Also don't forget the Nickelodeon deadline

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:52pm PDT

Ye deadpool helps

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:52pm PDT

I don't know if they have some kinda label but out comic kinda looks all aGes at first glance

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:51pm PDT

I think the Deadpool movie is mad in our favor

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:51pm PDT

I dunno! I have to look on comixology again for that. But the week I did check they had a bunch of teen+ and mature stuff so they do it more normally now than before.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:45pm PDT

How do they show its not one of their all ages titles?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:45pm PDT

If they are looking for something edgy, I think we have a fairly good chance. I think the biggest obstacle might be a marketing one

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:45pm PDT

I'm pissing myself right now

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:42pm PDT

I'm excited

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:40pm PDT

Muuwaahahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:28pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 10:27pm PDT

Yes, that's cool with me

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 2:43pm PDT

So I think we can plan to pitch around if they say no. That Friday is April 22.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 31, 2016 at 8:55am PDT

Noice!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 31, 2016 at 8:41am PDT

From IDW: We are going to review this the week of 4/18. Check in with me the Friday of that week to see what we thought. THANKS!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 28, 2016 at 1:09pm PDT

Hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 10:46am PDT

Otherwise, nothing new to report.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 10:46am PDT

I emailed Boom again, this time about Weird Man from Uncle Grandpa. I talked to a couple of their peeps about Weird Man yesterday. No one had a clue what the fuck I was talking about but it turns out Alex is the guy who edits that book. So I figured why not shoot him a line. I really wanna make that fucking book!!!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 28, 2016 at 10:44am PDT

The marketing dude who opened the door for us at IDW is super cool. Friendly, polite. Since he's the one that "discovered" our project, hopefully he'll be an advocate for us.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:56pm PDT

Spanky

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:55pm PDT

Cool have Funtime

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:55pm PDT

Nice

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:55pm PDT

K I'm at the con

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:55pm PDT

They'll be fisting each other for it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:54pm PDT

Oh yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:52pm PDT

Like that word

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:50pm PDT

Craving

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:49pm PDT

And it's fun in a way that people will be craving after BvS, I think.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:49pm PDT

We've got one ready to roll, to be leveraged, even optioned

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:48pm PDT

Ye

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:48pm PDT

Ye maybe! Hope so

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:48pm PDT

There have been very few r-rated funny superhero indie books lately

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:48pm PDT

I'm sorta banking on the Deadpool movie changing everything

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:47pm PDT

In dunno either

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:47pm PDT

Dunno

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:47pm PDT

Maybe it's bad to pitch again,

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:44pm PDT

Haha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:39pm PDT

My biggest thing is, didn't we pitch most of them the story like twice already?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:39pm PDT

Hahaha foo shoo

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

Let's get into a bidding war for CnC!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:38pm PDT

Between the shit I did for IDW and BM, I've got lots of raw pitch materials to work with.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:36pm PDT

So I guess whatver is easiest for you

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:36pm PDT

Not much work. I've got all the materials ready. And this time we'll have some marketing ideas too!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

Ye! Sure unless pitching other places will be like no work? Dunno

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

I guess let's finish Wizard and then see if we wanna pitch Cougar other places?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

Ye

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

I would say we know two of them have seen it and we're open to discussing it at the review committee. Beyond that, I can't say.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:31pm PDT

Ok. Ehm

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:31pm PDT

I hear it's not necessarily a long process. Typically within a month, according to a bud of mine who went through it twice.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

But we know two of them like it, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

Ok

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:29pm PDT

From what I understand about the IDW process, they'll let us know if it goes to the review committee. Then it has to pass the committee and we can start to talk about actually publishing with them.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:28pm PDT

What are our options?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:28pm PDT

I dunno

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:27pm PDT

Do you think I should wait to hear more from them?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:26pm PDT

Didn't you just pitch it to IDW?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:26pm PDT

Maybe Dark Horse again? We'll have a few print versions left over from this weekend.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:25pm PDT

I guess fucking Image again. No point in Fantagraphics, I guess.

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:24pm PDT

Also, where should we pitch CnC?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:24pm PDT

Lettering

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:23pm PDT

Well luckily you finished the Wizard in time! I'll start layering as soon I'm back from Nashville later this week.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:17pm PDT

Ye let's hope so! It'll me atleast 2 weeks tough

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:15pm PDT

Sounds good.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 12:05pm PDT

I'll get some HP from Amanda's dad.... And hopefully a fixed macbook

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:56am PDT

Buying a new one or will you get a replacement from Apple?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:56am PDT

Ugggggghhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:55am PDT

I don't have a computer at the moment tough so doooooont know hen it will be online

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:55am PDT

Never heard of it!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:53am PDT

Maybe Amanda wants to see it, up comming week is gonna be moonwalkers

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:52am PDT

Are you gonna see BvS as your weekly movie?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:51am PDT

Aww man I'm sorry DCC was meh. But don't worry... there are tons more conventions to come and those will be better.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 27, 2016 at 11:45am PDT

Hahaha good stuff. Happy you enjoyed yourself. I was in a bad mood today so DCC kinda sucked

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:54pm PDT

Found a blank guest pass for the DC lounge on the ground and I snuck in. It was pretty fun. The DC dude was super cool about it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:53pm PDT

I'm gonna try boom and oni again tomorrow. I know we're wrong for them but maybe just maybe they're looking for something different.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:51pm PDT

But the guy who runs Black Mask did show up when I was there and I gave him the book. He thought it was super cool and appreciated the effort but said our comic is not for them.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:50pm PDT

The annoying guy is the writer for their big We Can Never Go Home book. He's a super douche, like a hipster version of Jeremy Whitley.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 11:54am PDT

Hahaha what did he do?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 9:58am PDT

hrm yeah i don't think he's even gonna be there but i'll probs give the annoying guy our book anyway

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 9:57am PDT

Man vs. Rock is right across from Black Mask so i'm over there all the time. i'm waiting to see if the dude who runs it will show up. i guess i should check his twitter.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 1:02am PDT

Sweet! I'm happy that IDW continues to seem interested! To bad about the black mask thing, did you give it anyways? IDW whoop whoop

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 26, 2016 at 12:45am PDT

i sentededed it to IDW!!! exciteingniningg!!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 10:01pm PDT

Swung by the Black Mask table... the guy was having an annoying conversation and it made me not wanna give him the book haha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 9:58pm PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 9:56pm PDT

Gave me his email and asked for a pdf of our book. Gonna send it to him tonight.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 9:55pm PDT

Talked to the IDW managing editor today.

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 9:52pm PDT

Uggggh just missed the bus so I gotta 25 mins to kill

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:58am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:46am PDT

Nick MarinoFriday, March 25, 2016 at 12:46am PDT

SWEEET!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 24, 2016 at 11:47pm PDT

The PDFs are lookin good

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 24, 2016 at 11:38pm PDT

That is one cute message

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 3:09pm PDT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:47pm PDT

there's a funny typo in the idw print version. i'll take a pic of it later

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:46pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 24, 2016 at 2:04pm PDT

Yay good stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 9:03am PDT

i'll have it for you once i make some pdfs, but first i gotta get these files to the copy shop

Nick MarinoThursday, March 24, 2016 at 9:03am PDT

whooooph! finally finished the print layout. that was a beast

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 11:36pm PDT

Cool it's no biggie if you don't mention it

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 1:35pm PDT

i'll see if i can spin it in a way that mentions you're background but it also sensitive to what they're asking

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 12:39pm PDT

You might be right...probs are

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

but that's my interpretation of it. i could be wrong

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 12:10pm PDT

my only concern is that i think that question is basically them saying "tell us if you're not white or straight so we can consider that because representation matters"

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 12:09pm PDT

i see what you're going for with the background section

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 11:54am PDT

I dunno I just think it makes us 'special'

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 10:17am PDT

soooooo what would you like to say about the international stuff? if you have any suggestions, send em. otherwise, i'll suggest something in a bit

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 10:16am PDT

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 10:15am PDT

nooooooooooooooooooooooo NOT THE LAPTOP!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 6:03am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 6:02am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 23, 2016 at 5:58am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 11:52am PDT

Deadpool, Venture Bros, and Archer are the comparisons we current have for Cougar and Cub.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 22, 2016 at 7:56am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:35pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:34pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

OMG SO MANY OPTIONS

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

but would they go after or before the story?!??

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

and then we could put all of that info on the interior pages

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

ye that sounds great

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:33pm PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

hahah COVER LETTER

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

i was thinking cover letter could be perfect for the inside cover

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

my opinion is go down one pixel on the balloon stroke and you'll be PERFECTO!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

allright

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:32pm PDT

whuuuu

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:31pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 12:01pm PDT

whut whut?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 11:34am PDT

the other stuff just do as you see fit

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 11:34am PDT

we can put it on the cover

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 21, 2016 at 11:31am PDT

mhhhhhhhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 10:00am PDT

also, how should we mention that this is a pitch somewhere on the printing? I wanna make sure to emphasize that this isn't something we've already made into a comic! I don't have any good ideas for this part yet.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 9:59am PDT

would that be super cool? If so, I think it's worth a shot. But if it's not impressive then I don't necessarily need to go that route.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 9:58am PDT

What if we used those for the IDW cover letter and questions from the spreadsheet?

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 9:57am PDT

Like I mentioned before we have two extra interior pages plus the inside front covers.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 9:56am PDT

So for the printing...

Nick MarinoMonday, March 21, 2016 at 9:56am PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:29pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 2:28pm PDT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 3:53am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 3:52am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 3:51am PDT

ye I dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 3:51am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 15, 2016 at 3:51am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:12pm PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:45am PDT

then we'll do it pretty much like this with some color hold here and there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:44am PDT

schweet

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:27am PDT

But from what I'm seeing right now, I think this would make for a fantastic submission and it would be a-okay just like this!!!

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:27am PDT

I think the painted background is up to you.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

That's a very animated thing to do.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

I think some color lines here and there could be cool.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

Fuck shading. Seems unnecessary to me.

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 11:26am PDT

LOOKS AWESOME!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 8:52am PDT

uhm ye don't know how I'm gonna do shading yet. maybe painted background? maybe nothing? maybe just colored lines? I dunno any ideas?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:12am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:05am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:04am PDT

Nick MarinoMonday, March 14, 2016 at 12:04am PDT

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:31am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:31am PST

now i'm focused on making sure each character hits the beats of the emotional arc in each issue

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:30am PST

i'm normally worried about the timing of jokes and stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:30am PST

its cool but weird

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:30am PST

in the most serious way possible

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:30am PST

he chose two of my more serious ideas and asked if we could combine them

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:30am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:29am PST

my collaborator isnt the comedy kind of artist

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:29am PST

sometimes I want to do serious stories, but then I get bored

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:29am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:29am PST

comedy, i know

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:23am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:22am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:21am PST

I also need to see if Stique did some writing

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:16am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 13, 2016 at 12:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 12, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:26am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:25am PST

SIDEKICK ASS

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:25am PST

and she remembered why she was a hero in the first place

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:25am PST

but ya know, seeing him in that thong really put everything into perspective for her

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:25am PST

she probably would've been fine if Cub hadn't been turning tricks for Sugar Mama

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:24am PST

i liked how she was so deep undercover that she actually opened her own brothel

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:24am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:24am PST

you two twelve issues from 88-89 when she ditched the Cat Hole to live on the streets and fight teen prostitutes?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:23am PST

i thought it was pretty ballsy to have Race Card steal her melanin. i mean, definitely would be offensive nowadays, but at the time it was pretty edgy

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:23am PST

love that shit it's like the Magnificent Mad Momma arc

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:22am PST

cuz the rogues thought she was a different hero!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:22am PST

well, yeah, the Albino arc was pretty awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:22am PST

but she was back on Earth within four issues

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:22am PST

oh and i guess she technically took some time off when she went out into space in #502

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:21am PST

whaddabout that time she turned albino?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:21am PST

at least she got a new Cub out of it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:21am PST

i never understood what they were going for with that

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:21am PST

that was a weird time

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:20am PST

her "circus era" from #460-73

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:20am PST

OH RIGHT

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:20am PST

she only took a week off to learn Tae Bo in the late 90s

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:20am PST

but she travelled to tokyo to join the circus

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:19am PST

she's a creature of the night!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:19am PST

naw, c'mon, the COugar never sleeps

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:19am PST

who was brutally murdered by Father Fornicator's Altar Boys during a gang bang gone bad in Cougar #420

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:19am PST

did she take of a year before or after this?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:19am PST

Kitty Kelly

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:18am PST

so by the time Cougar #400 hit, she had a new sidekick... and it was a the first and only female Cub!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:18am PST

the Cat Hole, thatis

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:18am PST

by that point, she'd discovered Doc Feelgood's plot to get her pounded at work so he could pound her in the hole

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:18am PST

in #389.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:17am PST

killed by Cougar, of course

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:17am PST

RoboCougar was a failed experiment by the Cyborg Brothers, Roach's gay dads.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:17am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:16am PST

battered in the streets, a freak in the sheets

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:16am PST

but this unbalanced her, resulting a new, darker, grittier disco-flavored Cougar.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:16am PST

waddabout RoboCougar?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:16am PST

following the death of Cub in #350, Ferdinand convinced Minerva not to recruit a new sidekick.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:16am PST

ofcourse

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 11:15am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 10, 2016 at 10:09am PST

probably

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 10:09am PST

the doot doot throws me off a little, though... do you think it would be too weird to show the doors opening?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 10, 2016 at 10:08am PST

the colors are terrific

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:08pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:08pm PST

yeah, i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:08pm PST

ye I understand, for me it's partially that some of it has almost been 6 months ago

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

i mean, the IDW guy already complimented them

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

the issue looks fantastic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

it's fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

however, i don't think you NEED to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

I won't do it

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

you would need to do it this week if you want any changes to be in the pitch

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:07pm PST

:O

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:06pm PST

BUUUUTTT

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:06pm PST

but in this case, because we're doing everything thing at once, i would say it's okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:06pm PST

normally i would say don't do it!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 2:06pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:50pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:49pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:49pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:34pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:26pm PST

what he wanted was sooooo specific tough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:26pm PST

who knows I'd like to find out

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:24pm PST

i'm just like "does he hate it and not know how to tell me?" or has he just not been online?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

I read the claw part I liked that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

sounds cool tough!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

the punchline here is that i gave him a fucking WEIRD script about a secret agent woman fighting murderous giant stuffed animals trying to slaughter humans at the World's Fair. that was a week ago. i haven't heard from him yet!!! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

i might just have to wait and see if it ever happens and then show you art

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

dunno if a synopsis does it justice

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

it's okay!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

I feel like a dick :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

can you give me a synopsis? :3

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

very specific

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

so i wrote him this last week...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

i was like "okay, i can work with that... gimme a few days"

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

he had very specific parameters for what he wanted to do... 8 page spy story set in the 60s about a woman named Roxy who has a fight on a blimp.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:13pm PST

haha tahts nice

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:13pm PST

but i told him that i'd write a script for him if he wanted to collaborate

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:13pm PST

where i want a backup or even a pinup

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:12pm PST

i told him i have anything like that right now

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:12pm PST

so he contacted me asking to do a backup story for one of my future projects

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:12pm PST

haha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 1:12pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 12:53pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 12:19pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 12:19pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 8, 2016 at 11:49am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, March 7, 2016 at 11:48pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:24pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

is there a sequence that you did allot of already?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

i mean, i'll probably burn out in a couple of days but i can at least finish all of the sound effects and miss chievous and sugar mama

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:22pm PST

lemme think a second

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:22pm PST

do you want pages now or more flats first?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:22pm PST

i'm enjoying flatting #5 and can keep going on it

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:22pm PST

speaking colors, though

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

boring

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:18pm PST

I loved it in a feeling like someone walked into you watching tranny porn kind of way

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:18pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

don't trust brown people!

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

it's like a big Republican commercial

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

annnnnnd?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

just went to London Has Fallen

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

mmmmmm color

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

we'll do that then :)

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

cool no problemo

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

i mean, we've got over a month to submit it so i feel like there's definitely time to put some decent colors on it. why not make it as attractive as possible?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:13pm PST

i'm not sure if color would be a deal breaker or not, but my opinion is that it matters for something like this! i can flat the entire thing and then you can tweak it, if you're down. if nothing else, it'll pop more with colors and leave more of an impression. especially because you wisely chose a strong and simple color scheme for the main character designs (purple, yellow, blue, green, and brown).

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:02pm PST

I'll ink it over the next two weeks, I think that would be best. and then you can letter it. don't think we need to color it, I might use a little grey

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, March 6, 2016 at 1:01pm PST

I don't fucking know

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 10:11am PST

gets the story out there effectively and quickly. that's good for a cartoon, right?

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 10:10am PST

and to the point

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 10:10am PST

very efficient

Nick MarinoSunday, March 6, 2016 at 10:10am PST

LOOKS T-RIFFIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://io9.gizmodo.com/bob-newhart-starred-in-one-of-the-strangest-comic-book-1762224554

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 4:32pm PST

oh one last thing

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

They really screwed us with those Diamond ads and these bogus convention costs. I never see our books on Action Lab tables in convention pics.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

but I assume that just goes toward the trailer fire that is Holy F*cked.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

Holy F*ck is positive $460

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

AAANNNNDDD

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

And our story will be unique for both of them.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

Anyway, both Black Mask and IDW are doing good stuff right now. Both do credits on the inside front cover regardless of the credits being on interior pages.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

The panel had like five peeps at it! But it was good.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

But Black Mask is there in about the same proportion, though that's just this shop. The retailer wasn't particularly impressed with either publisher. He's excited about Aftershock, though. And after going to their panel at Long Beach, I am too.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

IDW is definitely slumping in creator owned books right now. They're barely even on the new indie racks at that shop.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

Professional haha

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

IDW books are fine. Maybe too glossy and overpriced a tad, but they're nice. Very professiona.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

Black Mask books look gooooooood! The singles are on fantastic paper and the Space Riders TPB was so yummy that I *almost* bought it.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

SO HERE'S MY COMIC SHOP REPORT:

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

I'm absolutely loving both of them. They're killer

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

My only suggestion is rotating the gradient in the back so it goes from lighter to darker, sorta keeping with the thematic tone of the content

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

The 70s-00s page is fucking RAWKING!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

It's perfecto.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

I think you totally nailed the 30s-60s page!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH THOSE ARE LOOKING HAWT!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 12:47pm PST

not to crazy about it but whaddever

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 11:24am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 11:02am PST

I mean 460

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 11:02am PST

that 420... is that sill negative?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:49am PST

good!

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:48am PST

I like what I'm seeing. I think it works well.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:47am PST

YESSSSS people gloves! An essential reference.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:47am PST

maybe, probably. but I did hear somewhere the Diamond cost are stupid high

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:46am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:46am PST

I think it's just another way for ALE to make money off of creators. They probably overbill us big-time.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:43am PST

and they cost allot

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:43am PST

those diamond thingies are conisdered ads

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:43am PST

yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:42am PST

We keep having these massive advertising costs for Holy F*cked. Diamond, I guess?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:42am PST

ye i't just so different the markets

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:41am PST

That's good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:41am PST

that means we sold about 150 books

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:40am PST

Sweet!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:37am PST

I earned over 150euros from ZombieHipsters

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:37am PST

who knows man

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:36am PST

The numbers seen fairly preposterous but whatever. Maybe I'm just too cynical about it now? Hehe

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:36am PST

Same ol shit

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:35am PST

Got our sales reports from Q4

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:33am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:30am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:27am PST

Haha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:27am PST

no biggie

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:27am PST

ye I'm not sure wht you mean :3

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:26am PST

Sorry my typing is such a mess

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:26am PST

But it's probably not a thing at all

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:26am PST

I mean the way we our our title and credits in the interior page

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:25am PST

Haha not that!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:23am PST

my name fucks up everything

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:23am PST

Or end credits our something

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:23am PST

But if we also do an inside front cover, then that's less of a concern

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:22am PST

The one thing I thought could be a weird fit is our credits

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Yeah, good call

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:21am PST

ehmm backup shit?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:21am PST

paper mainly I guess, maybe inside front cover

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:21am PST

oh

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:19am PST

I mean like anything I should pay attention to in their printing or design

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:19am PST

TMNT?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:19am PST

maybe?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:19am PST

Luna

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:19am PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:17am PST

Try to get a feel for the way they lay out their books

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:16am PST

Ugh phone typing

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:16am PST

Idw

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:16am PST

Anything I should look for in particular?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:15am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:13am PST

Speaking of which, great job on the new batch

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:13am PST

How could it NOT look awesome?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:13am PST

I'll get on it in a bit

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:13am PST

Your coloring is kickass!###

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:13am PST

mhhh i'll see

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:12am PST

I think it will work and work well

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:12am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:12am PST

They never go to crazy with shading, but their user of color changed a lot of the years

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:12am PST

I should probably just try doing it in their respective styles and if it doen't work it to bad

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:11am PST

What about using cartoons for inspiration

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:11am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:11am PST

Yeah more highlights and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:10am PST

yes but the brian hitch type one would be allot of work

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:10am PST

I guess the cool thing about the older moments would be no shading

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:09am PST

That page does a good job of implying shifting color palettes.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:09am PST

I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:09am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:09am PST

But would it be too much work?

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:08am PST

Mimicking color styles over time could be super fun

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:08am PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:08am PST

I guess it depends on how detailed you want to get.

Nick MarinoSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 10:07am PST

Hmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 8:08am PST

don't know how I want to do them yet, any ideas?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, March 5, 2016 at 8:07am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:38am PST

would we even be interested in doing more Cougar and Cub

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

i guess that's a question...

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

of course, by then we'll have Cougar and Cub locked down so who knows what'll be going on for us

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

we should really talk about making it!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

i feel like if it gets rejected from Nick

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

yep. i love it

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

awful sunglasses

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

big flowing mullet

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:37am PST

oh brilliant

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:36am PST

If RW would be a cartoon there would be a Bowling Wizard

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

or a super hero called Crotch Chop

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:34am PST

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:34am PST

Bad Balls: The Pete Weber Story

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:34am PST

OMG

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:33am PST

a Pete Weber comic would be the best

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:33am PST

hahaha ye I gets you

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:32am PST

HA!

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:32am PST

without any interest in actually working on them

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:32am PST

i guess i'm just dreaming about the kinds of bizarre licensed gigs we could land

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:31am PST

it would be fun to do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:31am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:31am PST

hahahahha

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:31am PST

and how dumb it would be

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:31am PST

and then i realized how much awful reading i'd need to do for that

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

i was like "holy shit we should pitch to revive some stagnant property like that!"

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

i read this article about Cyber-Force

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

it's just

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

i dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:30am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:29am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:29am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, March 4, 2016 at 10:28am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:40pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:40pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:39pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:39pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:38pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:38pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

also it only woulda been 2 hours

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

oh in a 4X4 it woulda been fine

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

plus stique and i have been having a lot of relationship problems (i mean, forever, really) but especially in the past year so it was a tough vacation made worse by my bad decisions!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:37pm PST

sounds like fun to do with a big 4X4 tough

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

thaattt sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

ughh

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

it was an insane 4 hours

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:36pm PST

we drove for like 6km on a road full of rocks and fucked up bumps and gaping holes in the ground

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

took justique on a mountain drive in a tiny car without researching the road to make sure it was paved

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

did you adopt a child?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

ugh

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:35pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

dey rrr

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

yah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:34pm PST

that is because Cartoons and Manga are so dynamic

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

or standard

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

so the result is NOOOOOOOT boring

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

but the mix is totally UNIQUE

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

ye probably

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

i would say

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:33pm PST

traditional or standard US comics style

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

i wouldn't use "boring" but i know what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

hahaha thanks

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

that's a surprisingly succinct description

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

that

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

hhahaha IS IT!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:32pm PST

shiiiiiit i gotcha watch it when i eat so i can read it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:31pm PST

my style kinda is Manga and Cartoons with a bit of boring US stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:31pm PST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWCzLnrzPI0&feature=youtu.be

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:31pm PST

OOOO what's the manga doc?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:31pm PST

it's a cool panel

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:31pm PST

it's like Powerpuff Girls crossed with manga or something

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:30pm PST

I should be coloring now but I'm watching a manga doc

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:30pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:30pm PST

this might be my fave panel in the whole book

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:30pm PST

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:29pm PST

gotta get C&C and RW out of the way first

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:29pm PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:29pm PST

not ours, i mean

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:29pm PST

hows other projects going?

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

but especially him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

hahahahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

yes, i do

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:27pm PST

you like everyone with flat colors

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

i like JRjr with flat colors!

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

the painting with the already frenetic JRjr is like too much dynamism or something

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

if the inks are good dean white is good on JRjr

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

ye it's the combinations

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:26pm PST

i think Dean White is a sucky fit for JRjr sometimes

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

but those colors are yuck to me

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

i love the lines there

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

not a prince fan

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

or stop touring

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

youd be like "WTF? just play 1999 already"

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:25pm PST

it's like if Prince only toured playing songs from one of his dull albums

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

but this "greatest hits" version he's doing of his art is so meh

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

i hate to say it but i feel like JRjr needs to fucking retire or do something different

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

but Kickass 2 sucked

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

yeah JRjr was good on that! from the same time as that Spidey work i like.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:24pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

he always evolves

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

he's good on the first kick ass

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

at least that never happened to Miller

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

the raw is gone and what's left is a bit bland

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

ye guess so

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

it's like the most boring version of their "quintessential" styles

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:23pm PST

i think nowadays JRjr has the same problem as modern Jim Lee... it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

and his 00s Spider-Man is terrific too, though that's when he started drawing everyone as fucking skeletons so that's a bit odd

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

Iron Man, X-Men circa #300

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:22pm PST

i like his early 90s blocky work best

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

he is very hit or miss, especially now

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

where you can tell JRjr was working really quick and sloppy but that energy made it so good even if it wasn't pristine

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

jrjr is really hit or miss for me

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/8/82/Iron_Man_Vol_1_259.jpg

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:21pm PST

reminds me of my fave JRjr run, Armor Wars II

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

super coo

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

yep

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

so raw

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

with JRjr hands

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

very cartoony and exaggerated

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

that is awesome

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

this is probs my fave piece by him http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NIXOHLcpkbU/UdM9fCBAK9I/AAAAAAAAD58/6zn3dXSKutU/s750/zombiecap.jpg

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

I kinda put more effort in it :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

ye he has this ehmmmm sense of he just does it without thinking about it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

but not enough to read it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

i like when he spazzes out and does that angular shit

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

I love his crazy art

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

but i like it more when you do it

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

i'm really on the fence about his art

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

love his stuff

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:17pm PST

it's like you keep the best parts of his style merge it with yours

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:16pm PST

thanks :)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:16pm PST

I love the way you ape Frank Miller

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:16pm PST

AAWWWW SHIT THEY LOOK GREAT ALREADY!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:16pm PST

I haven't decided if I want to color it the way the stuff we based it on did

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:16pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:15pm PST

because i'll dive head-on into the lettering and caption writing stuff once you finish

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:15pm PST

that sunday-ish timing should work out perfect

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

oh i get it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

ohhhh i misunderstood

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

I flatted them

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

would you like me to work on flatting the flashback pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

cewl :)

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

i'll get in as much flatting as i can until then

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

kickass

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

so I should have it finished by sunday

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

basically just have to shade the issue

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

I have all of #4 flatted and color picked except the 2 flashback pages i'll do those last

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

I've finished flatting all of Cougar in #5. I'm working on Cub now as well as SFX.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

They look terrific.

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 2:11pm PST

I LOVE THEM!!!!! Wonderful job. Killer palette and incredible choices.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 1:57pm PST

I've uploaded most of these

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 1:57pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 1:07pm PST

my idea of painting an action figure might be a litttle bit to hard for me

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 10:54am PST

hahaha no worries! we've got tons of awesome art for those extra pages no matter what.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, March 3, 2016 at 9:03am PST

might not do it after all :P I'll see

Nick MarinoThursday, March 3, 2016 at 7:14am PST

Cool sounds like fun!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 11:00pm PST

that isn't painted but you get what I mean

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 11:00pm PST

kinda like that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 11:00pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 10:58pm PST

I'd like to make a digital painting of an action figure

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 10:58pm PST

okay I might want to do an art thing for the back then

Nick MarinoWednesday, March 2, 2016 at 5:56pm PST

about three weeks from now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 10:05am PST

I might want to do an illustration or design-y thing depending on how much time we have

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:39am PST

a next on seems like a great idea, maybe an about us page could also work

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:38am PST

yes! when do you give it to them?

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:15am PST

What to put on pages 23 and 24 of the interiors and what to put on the back cover! (I'll leave the inside covers blank or just put our contact info on there.) For pages 23-24, I'm think maybe I'll make simple collages of cool images from #2-5 with a "coming in our future issues" kind of text. For the back cover, I can use one of your awesome villain pinups.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:12am PST

My only conundrums...

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:12am PST

I decided how I'm gonna print Cougar and Cub for IDW. Gonna do it like a comic, but not send it to one of those fancy places. Just gonna do it at a copy shop on good paper.

Nick MarinoTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 9:10am PST

Haha I dunno anything about the Satanic Bible! But fuck it. Why not? GO FOR IT!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 12:06am PST

I'm not sure I had a point

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, March 1, 2016 at 12:06am PST

so I'm interested in doing transgressive fiction and shit like that right. So I was thinking could I adapt something? well Mein Kampf enters the public domain soon, it's boring and might be to much. So waddabout the Satanic bible? It's not really transgressive, but hey people sure hate the title of that book.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:34pm PST

byeee

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:34pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:33pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:32pm PST

I got that

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:31pm PST

well i seriously mean French because of the strength of their market and that the crossover isn't as strong with English readers

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:31pm PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:31pm PST

or Finnish

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:30pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:30pm PST

i think French would be the language for it

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:30pm PST

you would know that better than me!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:29pm PST

ye that and people that would want to read it would probably prefer it in English

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:28pm PST

yeah, i mean, i have NO idea what would go into getting ALE to say yes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:26pm PST

my dutch publisher expressed a little interest in translating HF, but I told him it wasn't worth the hasle :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:25pm PST

it would be a little shorter than our other stuff, but it might be fun

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

i'm down to explore every angle

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

that sounds cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:21pm PST

that said if IDW picks up C&C everything might change

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:21pm PST

we do something special and we might make 50 bucks

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:21pm PST

thaaaatttt waay we do have it on paper 'cuz tahts fun

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

like next year or whatever depending on allot of shit we could do a digital first series and then get it published on paper in Holland in dutch

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

lay it on me daddyo

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

yaay

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

I had an idea tooo

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

sounds good to meee

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

and if it becomes a comic instead of a cartoon, again back to the minicomics or webcomics idea

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

always

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

or, if we get to do more than just the short cartoon... MAKE FAKE TRAILERS!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

ye that would be funny

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

like, if we get to make the cartoon, we could do little webcomics of what happens in the movies

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

i think we should do something special for the VHS tapes

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

well, now that the dumb part of the idea is out of the way...

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

now that i typed it out

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

that sounds so stupid

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

OH GOD

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

he has to return comic book rentals to the comic shop

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

instead of VHS tapes...

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:15pm PST

what if...

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

BUT

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

this is kinda dumb

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:14pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:05pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:05pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:05pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:04pm PST

But he's normally really nice when he does reply

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 1:04pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 7:39am PST

oeh Santa Barbaar seems super nice

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 7:38am PST

I was thinking blue for cathole and red for the fights

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 7:08am PST

Just an idea, though! I'm cool with anything.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 7:07am PST

My vote is do the same color scheme in the cat hole but something new for the cub scenes in Megaville since this is his brake-out battle! It's night, so maybe a purpley thing?

Nick MarinoMonday, February 29, 2016 at 7:03am PST

Goin to Santa Barbara, it's a couple hours away.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 5:41am PST

I should decide if I'm going with a new color theme are use a previous one

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 5:30am PST

onlyyy four pages left to flat

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 29, 2016 at 12:11am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:05am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:02am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:02am PST

hahaha ye

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:01am PST

i felt like Mulele was saying more about himself with the particular critique of the Secret Pope than he was about the comic book! hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:01am PST

yeah, defintiely

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 10:00am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:59am PST

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:59am PST

yeah i think they're a bit off in some areas, but not in their overall critique

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:59am PST

I dooooo disscagree with the way they saw the secret pope

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:53am PST

from what I heard in the first five minutes I agree, and they are pretty much right

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:35am PST

i think their critiques are pretty good!

Nick MarinoThursday, February 25, 2016 at 9:21am PST

hahahahaha they can't even figure out your name, it's ridiculous

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:32am PST

sure! seems like a good idea

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:32am PST

it might really be in our favor, if R-rated superheroics get hot again in comics too

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:32am PST

and mostly i wanna capitalize on this deadpool thing while we can

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:32am PST

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:31am PST

like, the humor has similarities to things but we're doing something relatively unique

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:31am PST

agreed

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:31am PST

no one has said to me "oh shit this is like BLANK"

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:31am PST

and, to the best of my knowledge, fairly unlike any that came before

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:31am PST

personally, i'd like to emphasize how it's unlike any other superhero story out there

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:30am PST

i think that's a great starting point to build our concept of the audience

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:29am PST

i'll paste that in there so we don't forget

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:28am PST

Fun loving, probably relatively young people.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:27am PST

I guess our Target market would be people who know some stuff about comics especially superheroes, but don't see them as gods.

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:26am PST

with that said, Kahlil said we can ask him anything about the sheet, so that's an option if we're unclear about stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:26am PST

ah cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:26am PST

they mean which IDW employee submitted it and if there's an editor interested in it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:26am PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:26am PST

i think we leave those blank

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:24am PST

what's up with the "submitted by" and "editorial" thing?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:23am PST

spansk

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:22am PST

ye I think what you have is awesome

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:21am PST

i'm sure between the two of us we can fake it through that part

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:21am PST

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:21am PST

no

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:20am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:20am PST

brainstorm for what?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:20am PST

yeah it's almost creppy

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:20am PST

i feel like we'll really need to brainstorm some good stuff in a couple of weeks

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:20am PST

the marketing stuff

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 24, 2016 at 10:19am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:41am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:40am PST

it really works

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:40am PST

but i also really dig the way it fills up with blood

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:40am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:40am PST

oooo the splatters are my fave part!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:39am PST

don't know if it needs the spatters but ye I like it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

gonna mail it in a sec

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

nah

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

very cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

very smart

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:38am PST

YES

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:35am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:34am PST

okay :D

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:34am PST

i'll do it a little, but I don't want to get to fancy

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:33am PST

use the size of the panels to indicate how momentous the moment feels

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:33am PST

like

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:33am PST

i mean, we can always get clever and do a couple of splash pages in there

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:33am PST

yeah, that sounds good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:23am PST

the page turns are not great but 6 pages is cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:17am PST

6 pages!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:17am PST

allright

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:04am PST

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:04am PST

plus we'd need to have it ready way earlier

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:04am PST

it's just way more time and money

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:04am PST

probably not a comic book

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:03am PST

okay cool, i'll figure it out

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:03am PST

yeah! I'm not gonna tell you wat to do

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:02am PST

i'm sure either is fine

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:02am PST

or just give them some nice print outs from a copy center

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:02am PST

do we get it printed up like it's actually a comic book?

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:02am PST

my biggest question is...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:01am PST

yeah!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:01am PST

so i want to have a fucking amazing Cougar #1 ready to rock by like March 23

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

allright

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

WonderCon is exactly a month from now

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

i'd like to have the letters done in a couple of weeks so we can go through and really figure out this narration after that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

do some of this some of that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

cool I want to start coloring #4 tomorrow

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 11:00am PST

i'll be working on the lettering as i'm flatting too

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:59am PST

then i'm gonna start flatting Cougar #5

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:59am PST

i need to finish some scripts revisions for Nils

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:58am PST

that sounds fantastic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:57am PST

I'm putting the breakdowns in boxes now and then I'll try to thumb at least half a page a day

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:54am PST

ice cold

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:53am PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:53am PST

you know i'm cool with anything

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:53am PST

that's cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:50am PST

... that didn't quite make sense

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:49am PST

I might change some stuff like make panel 5 into one long one and 6 and 7 in 1 short one

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:49am PST

good!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:48am PST

so i think that's a good sign

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:48am PST

and adventure time

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:48am PST

for animation

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:48am PST

it reminds me of the comic pitch that got the superf*ckers greenlit

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

anyway

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

probably

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

it must just be the layout playing tricks on my eyes

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

it is

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

is that a standard comic book page? it looks so narrow!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:47am PST

some don't quite work but thats cool, it's more like a guide

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:46am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:46am PST

it almost seems like we intentionally wrote it for 8 panels

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:46am PST

PERFECT

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:45am PST

not a goal of mine, but still a cool gig

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:45am PST

okay I'm breaking down the comic like this

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:45am PST

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:42am PST

I would do it, but it's not a goal at all anymore

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:41am PST

i think the character is great and the gig would be interesting

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:41am PST

oh i would still do it

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:41am PST

and my feelings on it used to be "FUCK THAT! DC screwed siegel and shuster." but that's actually not how it went.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:41am PST

seems boring as fuck

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:41am PST

I don't want to do it anymore

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:40am PST

it really doesn't get more prestigious than that

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:40am PST

i mean, i think working on Superman is THE gig to get in superhero comics

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:40am PST

well then we gotta make that happen for you

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:40am PST

drawing supes was my dream as a kid

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

boooya

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

we got this on lock

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

crappy huge publisher

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

THEN DC COMICS

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

HAHAHA

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

crappy small publisher to crappy mid-size publisher

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:39am PST

yep, and it seems like the logical next step after Action Lab

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

ye

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

it's a good publisher to work with so *shrug*

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

it's still a step up

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

BUT

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

i no likey

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

all, the TPBs often cost more than the singles

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:38am PST

i've been talking to some peeps working with IDW lately and they all say the same thing "the books look great and they're underpromoted"

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

they are a bit understated as a publisher, but they do some cool things

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

but honestly it's all good

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

oh well

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:37am PST

like they never come over and talk to you really. you have to get their attention somehow. seems like shitty sales work to me.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:36am PST

but for real, the people at the IDW booth are kinda, ummmm, not very outgoing at cons

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:36am PST

good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:36am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:36am PST

"wouldn't tell you even if i did, i'm no snitch"

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:35am PST

and i was like "uhhhhhhhhhhh, i dunno"

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:35am PST

he emailed me and was like "WHO WAS GRUMPY???"

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:35am PST

i know Gmail has a tendency to get spammed, so if i don't hear from him in a week and a half, i'll email again from the audioshocker email. i've actually emailed this guy before from that address. back when a con recap i wrote was posted on bleeding cool and i talked about the grumpy people at the idw booth! hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:34am PST

like the person you talked to?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:33am PST

cool!

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:33am PST

i just emailed IDW

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:33am PST

ye figured as much

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:33am PST

but still, any project could work with them, i bet

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:32am PST

i think she was mainly thinking of my book with Nils, since that's all done as a panel-by-panel thing is landscape format

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:32am PST

sweet just ran into it

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:32am PST

Kelly recommended them to me after seeing some teasers for my upcoming books

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:32am PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 10:31am PST

i've done a bit of research into them!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 23, 2016 at 9:49am PST

https://stela.com/ don't know if it's something worth to look at

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:54pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 2:06pm PST

well guess what mutherfucking year it was when that Punisher jet-ski issue came out! HAH

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 2:05pm PST

remember how i was saying that i'm a sucker for any movie from the year 1990? like they have the most ridiculous action heroes and shit?

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 2:01pm PST

no matter what, i think you brought a great concept for this and i really love the story we've cooked up! so i'm super stoked about it.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 1:56pm PST

sounds good!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 1:37pm PST

i'll make it about 8 pages

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 1:37pm PST

cool i'll do comic then

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

I'm fine with either. I think a comic is more "charming" but less functional. I guess the other advantage to a comic, though, is that we can literally reuse it if the pitch doesn't pan out.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

do you prefer one over the other?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:39am PST

ye I can't quite get my head around it

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:33am PST

but a hybrid can be super tough to pull off

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:32am PST

i think either could work well

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:32am PST

yeah, i understand what you mean about the storyboards vs comic thing

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:32am PST

EAT WELL, MY FRIEND

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:31am PST

gotta cook

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:30am PST

like having my head in between didn't quite work

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:29am PST

I have to chose to either really do storyboards or comic

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:29am PST

what was it?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:29am PST

I tried soemthing but it wasn't working

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:29am PST

soo rainbowwizard

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:28am PST

I draw it quite small so I can only do some stuff detailed

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:28am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:28am PST

hahaha and the super detailed glove

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:28am PST

I love little cartoon you narrating it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:27am PST

oeh good catch

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:27am PST

Last panel needs an extra O in "too"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:27am PST

it's for next week

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:27am PST

thanks :)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 10:27am PST

HAHAHAHA that turned out awesome!!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 9:56am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 9:48am PST

so random

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 9:48am PST

Hahaha great find

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:15am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:14am PST

you need to go to sleep

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:14am PST

Noooooow

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:14am PST

Told lots of stories about our collaboration and explained our process a decent number of times too.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:13am PST

:)

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:13am PST

People were excited to find out what we're doing next. And the couple of people who saw Cougar liked it.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:12am PST

hahaha cool HF super fans thats funny

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:11am PST

Met a few HF super fans and showed the book to a decent number of other creators.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:11am PST

did you sell some books?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:11am PST

nice!

Nick MarinoMonday, February 22, 2016 at 12:10am PST

The panel went well today. In general, we had a really positive reception to Holy F*ck over the whole weekend at the Long Beach convention.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:45am PST

night night

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:45am PST

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:44am PST

K bed time

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:44am PST

yeah he loved your colors.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:43am PST

they got some cool stuff going on

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:43am PST

nice! I'm happy to hear that

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:43am PST

the initial reaction was real positive

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:42am PST

I'm going to get the submission sheet from them this week.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:42am PST

sweet :)

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:42am PST

WonderCon next month. The entire first issue.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:40am PST

coool :)

Nick MarinoSunday, February 21, 2016 at 12:12am PST

We're pitching Cougar and Cub to IDW.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 20, 2016 at 1:11am PST

just had to be 100% sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 20, 2016 at 1:11am PST

coool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:14pm PST

no rights are signed over and the only gray area is the "identical pitch" provision, which is pretty much the entire reason these things exist

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

same shit as when we pitch to Dark Horse, etc.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

it's no different than any other submission agreement

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

"You warrant that the material is original to you, that you are the sole and exclusive creator, author and owner of the Material, and that no one else has any right to the Material. You further warrant that no rights in the Material have previously been granted to anyone nor has the Material otherwise been exploited in any way." So basically we promise that we've never granted the rights to Rainbow Wizard to anyone else before and it's an original property that hasn't been out in the market. "You recognize that other persons including VMN employees may have submitted to VMN or to others or made public, or may hereafter originate and submit or make public, similar or identical material which VMN shall have the right to use, and you understand that you will not be entitled to any compensation because of VMN's use of such other similar or identical material." Yeah, so this is always the stickiest clause and it's problematic if you're dealing with company assholes who don't mind stealing other people's ideas. With that said, it's standard to all submission agreements and 999 out of 1000 times it's not an issue. "Any controversy arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation any claim that VMN has used any legally protectable portion of your Material in violation of the terms hereof, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for the resolution of such matters. In the event of such controversy you agree that you shall assert such claims not later than six (6) months after the date on which you first learned (or reasonably should have been aware) of VMN's use or intended use of any portion of the Material. You further agree that your rights and remedies, if any, shall be limited to an action to recover money damages in an action at law, and without limitation of the foregoing, you expressly agree that you shall not seek to enjoin or restrain the production, exhibition, distribution, licensing, advertising, and/or promotion of any of VMN's programming, promotional or marketing plans, and/or any of the subsidiary rights in connection therewith." If we feel that Nickelodeon ripped us off, we have to file a court motion in New York state within six months of our initial knowledge. And we can only recover monetary damages.

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

i'll paste my notes here BUT you don't have to read them

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:12pm PST

it's standard

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:10pm PST

I don't need to know the deeds right now, but sometimes you hear these stories about waving your copy rights just becuase you pitch something

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:09pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:05pm PST

so what i'll do is isolate the parts of the agreement that are relevant to rights

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:02pm PST

whuuu

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:02pm PST

HAHAHAHA

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:02pm PST

"However, you cannot and will not assume or infer from the fact that VMN regards your Material, or any part thereof, as novel, valuable or usable."

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:01pm PST

"You believe your Material and its features to be unique and novel."

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 2:01pm PST

hahahahaha this part is great...

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 1:57pm PST

sure!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 1:40pm PST

coullllldddd you check that we don't sign all our rights away by pitching to Nickelodeon?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 1:40pm PST

oh one thing

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 1:05pm PST

of course you do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 11:22am PST

I draw a lot of people holding sticks

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 10:50am PST

i was smitten

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 10:50am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, February 19, 2016 at 10:49am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 10:49am PST

thanks :)

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 19, 2016 at 10:49am PST

it's allright

Nick MarinoThursday, February 18, 2016 at 1:37pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:25am PST

america has lots of stupid payment laws

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:25am PST

very confusing hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:22am PST

but now I mailed him again

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:22am PST

a little confusing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:22am PST

"hey sorry, had it in my head you were setup for payment with us (since you'd done the bunnies cover, and Holy F etc)... but you're not we'll need a WFH agreement signed and then an invoice (with PayPal id) WFH: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2pyurkrs6sbb291/WORK%20FOR%20HIRE%20SERVICE%20AGREEMENT%20for%20Zombie%20Tramp%20writers%20and%20artists.doc?dl=0 invoice sample: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rtuv2hfum90vpgs/sample%20invoice.xlsx?dl=0 and then yes, AL can pay via PayPal the only thing is, they take up to 30 days so I'm now realizing you were probably so prompt because you thought there'd be $100 coming when you finished my bad, I should have mentioned that hopefully its not a big deal, sorry lmk if there are any questions speaking of the Bunnies cover, was Dean supposed to do something for you guys in return?"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:21am PST

hahahaha cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:20am PST

i also explained your last name to him

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:20am PST

he was emailing because my name is super generic and he wanted to get a birth year or something for their catalog

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:19am PST

thats awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 11:19am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:59am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:59am PST

and since you have all of the pages on the flash drive, you can pretty much delete any art want from Google Drive

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 17, 2016 at 9:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:09am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:08am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:08am PST

greaaat timing

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:08am PST

cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:08am PST

the books got here yesterday

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 11:08am PST

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 10:28am PST

they are the once that really have to fix it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 10:27am PST

just talk to her see if it's in anyway legit and than contact AL dudes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 10:25am PST

fair point

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 10:25am PST

Yeah me too. It's tough to tell how legit her offer is... She said she has at least six months planned, I think. Frankly, I need some more info about it. Maybe I'll start by emailing you and her, asking for more details. I'm into the idea of re-running Holy F*ck mostly for what you said. It's easy. And she did rattle off a list of impressive names involved but that doesn't necessarily mean they're actually doing it. Which is why I'm hesitant to give her something new like Cougar and Cub.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 7:00am PST

that said it's very little efford on our part so I like that

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:39am PST

AL is kinda a pain with this kind of stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:39am PST

plus

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:39am PST

like I would be fine with it, I just don't know if it would work

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:32am PST

I'd rather do something new

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:32am PST

mhhh ye I remember this

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:02am PST

Anyway, she's interested in running Holy F*ck in her mag

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:01am PST

But I also doubt she's totally full of shit.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 1:01am PST

I say that with a dash of skepticism because I couldn't find much about Jess having any experience with this kind of thing. She's @mcschmesh on Twitter.

Nick MarinoTuesday, February 16, 2016 at 12:58am PST

So the woman who.stayed for the movie on Friday night claims that she's relaunching Deadline, a British comics anthology from the 80s and 90s: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadline_(magazine)

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 15, 2016 at 7:57am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 8, 2016 at 10:26pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 8, 2016 at 10:24pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 8, 2016 at 10:23pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 7:43pm PST

It's a little further from the hostel :(

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 7:43pm PST

I'll be using the London Blackfriars Station for my trains to and from the airport. It's way cheaper than Victoria and there are no service interruptions on Sunday.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 4:09pm PST

except the very end it's kaka

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 4:08pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 2:13pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

lemme tell the strippers to leave

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

Its easier for me to explain

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

minute*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

can we skype for a minite

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

i think my question was vague

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

nooooo

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

I'm not making allot of sense

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

not exactly understanding you

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

thats how that world got to be

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

welll my first idea was his in a science fiction world 200 years from now or something, so what would they see as the middel ages 200 years from now

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

so what does that mean to you, what makes it like the 90s

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

myyyyyyy second idea with him was that there is this weird fantasy world that looks more like the 90's that like lord of the rings

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:59am PST

pfoeeee

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:59am PST

tell me more about that please

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:59am PST

same goes for Rainbow Wizard

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:59am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:59am PST

the monsters concept is great because the world can be so bizarre and the different monsters distinct

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:58am PST

fair point

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:58am PST

i think they can all be character based depending on our approach

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:58am PST

at the end of the day its all about the characters

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:58am PST

i think character based is what we need

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:57am PST

okay I love yours..... but mine are more character based

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:56am PST

so that's four potential stories

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:56am PST

cool, i'm glad you dig em

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:55am PST

I still like A Little More Action and the 17 thingies stories

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

oh shit i forgot about the A Little More Action sketch1!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

that one deserves titties

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

<3

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

about the warrior woman who wants to transition from local legend to god

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:54am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:53am PST

jeeze

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:53am PST

also 2014

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:53am PST

I still like A Little More Action

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

I never saw A Little More Action as an all ages story

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

about the dog with human arms and legs who becomes a reluctant superhero

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

Canis Sapien

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

about the monkey and the 50s pop star

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

A Little More Action

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:52am PST

my best unused all ages concepts are ones you've seen before

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:51am PST

it was a good year

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:51am PST

there both from 2014

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:51am PST

those would both make wonderful pitches

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:50am PST

it's somewhere on tumblr

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:50am PST

i think i've seen the monsters one

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:50am PST

hahahaha those are both fantastic

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:49am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:49am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:47am PST

princess and monsters is cool too

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:46am PST

rainbow wizard is super rad

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:45am PST

1 is a cute princess in a kindom of monsters, so that fits. the other one would be Rainbow Wizard

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:43am PST

one of em is a fixed story so that one doesn't quite work

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:43am PST

maybe?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:43am PST

think any of em would be a good fit?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:39am PST

maybe 3

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:37am PST

I only have 2 all ages ideas

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:37am PST

i often have all ages ideas but then i forget about em

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:37am PST

i should reread my story ideas

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:36am PST

good idea!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:31am PST

my taught was I'll just bring my sketchbook and maybe some character jumps out for you

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:30am PST

noooope

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:30am PST

i havent

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:30am PST

?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:30am PST

had any ideas yet>

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:30am PST

yeah pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:28am PST

for the Nick thing we just have to do something fun and small ish that we like and remove the dicks

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:28am PST

but that'll be a cool behind the scenes thing for when our comic comes out

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:27am PST

well, maybe not my one with Nils

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:27am PST

they were too raw to turn into anything else

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:27am PST

thats the biggest mistake i made with me previous pitches

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:27am PST

yeah i'm down with that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:26am PST

I was thinking if it doesn't work out I can just polish it any we can put it on comixology

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:25am PST

hahah yea

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

haha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

were accepted

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

well, not pitched

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

but they didn't get back to me yet :(

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

i contacted my friends who pitched

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

might be fun to do something different

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:24am PST

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:21am PST

maybe we should focus on the Nick pitch

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:19am PST

hahahaha i understand!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:19am PST

anyways, right now I'm thinking New Apostles are very meh

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:18am PST

problemo*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:18am PST

no peoblemo

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:18am PST

thanks:D

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:18am PST

look your no art addams, but if you want to you can get a message across in a way thats uniquely you

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:17am PST

but i really do appreciate it

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:17am PST

i would say extremely amateur and lazy

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:16am PST

thank you

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:16am PST

hahaha pronounced

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:16am PST

you have a pronounced astetic and thats cool

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:15am PST

no man your shit is cool

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:14am PST

it's so sad

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:14am PST

i was just drawing last night

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:14am PST

hahahaaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:14am PST

and just for funny would work if you would draw it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:05am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:05am PST

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:05am PST

i just think it sounds funny

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:05am PST

i have no idea

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:05am PST

okay, but how does that add to the nerative? I don't want to just seem lazy

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:03am PST

continuity mistakes in the story itself

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:03am PST

word balloons coming from the wrong character

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:03am PST

purposefully make it look like one page was printed off register

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:02am PST

i think it would be cool to slip lots of shit that used to happen in there too, like miscolored arms

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:02am PST

yes i agree

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:01am PST

have a funktion

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:00am PST

the adds should add to the nerative

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:00am PST

ofcourse

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:00am PST

you be a writer I can be angry some more

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:00am PST

not just the fake ads but the content too, where it parallels some bullshit in the comics biz

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 11:00am PST

okay

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:59am PST

i guess we could make the story itself a meta narrative

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:59am PST

that movie is still fucking topical

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:58am PST

it might be

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:58am PST

now I have to see if they live is on netflix

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:57am PST

and then people wonder why Hipsters are taking over

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:56am PST

german ads are more special but you guys do a pretty good job too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:56am PST

they are special

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:56am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:56am PST

oh american ads

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:55am PST

ye I remember the twix thing

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:55am PST

hahahaha kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:55am PST

ssssooooo were making a zombie story about the deterioration of culture

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:55am PST

https://nothingbutcomics.files.wordpress.com/2015/06/twix-dc-double.jpg

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:55am PST

like this

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:53am PST

I agree

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:52am PST

all of that

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:52am PST

the way it chops up the story, distracts, confuses, oversells

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:52am PST

replicating the awfulness of corporate comics

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:52am PST

for me, so far the most interesting thing has been the fake ads and letters and stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:51am PST

ehm I dunno, maybe we don't have anything to say?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:51am PST

now I'm angry again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:50am PST

what the fuck does that even mean?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:50am PST

I hate the term "comicbook movie"

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:49am PST

HAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:49am PST

my taught was something about the avengers movies, but that makes me not want to make it

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:49am PST

but it needs that little somethign extra

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

agreed

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

yeah

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

like that's fine as a background tone

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

could be part of it tough

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

kinda

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

but that seems kinda boring

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

it'll be shitty 90s style superheroes making fun of corporate relaunches

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

I dunno I have been thinking about it allot

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:48am PST

at first i was like

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:47am PST

what's the thing that makes it special?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:47am PST

ehmmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:47am PST

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:47am PST

so for New Apostles

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:46am PST

amazing vocoder work

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:46am PST

it's the song for when you want to get it on

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:46am PST

good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:46am PST

fo reals

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:45am PST

"i like you sexually"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:45am PST

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:45am PST

hahaha this song

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:44am PST

ehmmmmm

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:44am PST

with Holy F*cked, it was a weird gay superhero satire

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:44am PST

https://soundcloud.com/daniel-arruda-massa/i-like-you

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:44am PST

with Holy F*ck, it was this subversive b-movie homage

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:43am PST

what do you think our angle should be with it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:41am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:41am PST

well i got a looooooooooooong flight with pleanty of time to write

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:40am PST

probably yes

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:39am PST

because action lab will probs be influenced by all of the photos and whatever about the signing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:39am PST

to pitch it?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

immediately after the signing is the perfect time

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

ya know what? if we are gonna pitch this New Apostles thing

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

yeah, potentially

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

thats probably easiest

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:38am PST

your books, that is

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:37am PST

if so, should i bring them (or at least some of them) with me?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:37am PST

i guess that means there's a slight chance the books might get here before i leave

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:37am PST

Scott claims to have placed our order with Diamond

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:36am PST

yeah that's a good thing about it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:36am PST

it's just 3 issues

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:35am PST

why not do it?

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:35am PST

like

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:35am PST

today i feel good about the new apostles thing

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:34am PST

yeah that's true

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:34am PST

what should I be doing, can just be this huge overwhelming question

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:33am PST

it's to big of a question

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:32am PST

oh noooo! why do you think it makes you anxious?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:32am PST

:3

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:32am PST

gives me anxiety

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:32am PST

I get it, it's on my mind all the time

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:32am PST

it's just something that's on my mind

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

i'm not saying there's even a good answer to that

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

are we just putting out a similar product when we could be expanding ourselves creatively and our personal brands

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

I gets ya

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

and while it would probably be fun

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

we can tell so many different kinds of stories

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

my concern is

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:31am PST

but anyway

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

aparently i can't type today

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

we

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

will we, i mean

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

we will be pigeon holing ourselves with it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

haha tell me

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

hahahahahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

now that i think about it

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:30am PST

that thing might be the wrong way of thinking about it

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:29am PST

actually

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:29am PST

well, i dunno

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:29am PST

my big thing is...

Nick MarinoSunday, February 7, 2016 at 10:29am PST

yeah me too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, February 7, 2016 at 12:04am PST

I go between this could be fun and meh

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 6, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

today i'm indifferent

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 6, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

yesterday i was like "shit, i dunno if i wanna do it."

Nick MarinoSaturday, February 6, 2016 at 5:00pm PST

hahaha i was starting to feel the other way!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, February 6, 2016 at 4:39pm PST

I think I'm really getting into the idea of a New Apostles book

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:34am PST

because it seems like so much fun, i don't necessarily have any beef with bringing it to ALE

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:34am PST

yeah i mean why not?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:33am PST

I think we'll probably pitch it

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:33am PST

good thinkin

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:33am PST

sure

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:31am PST

just write a synopsis and we'll take it from there

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:23am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:22am PST

okay I gotta shower real quick

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:21am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:21am PST

hahaha have a "previously in" on page 12 that just sums up everything that happened already in the issue

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:20am PST

oh good call

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:20am PST

letters, tie-ins, ads, 'previously in"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:19am PST

we shouldn't plan it to much, and not have it in every issue

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:19am PST

what if the issue was only like 14 pages of story and then 8 pages of fake shit

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:19am PST

a few fake video game ads

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

hahaha brilliant

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

YES

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

now it's more of a writer thing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

maybe add a letters page in the middle

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

back then it was an editor thing

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

not like they did in the 90s

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

okay cool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:18am PST

yeah, they do

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

we could even do fake "On Sale Now!" pages

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

do they still do that tough?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

taking it to another level

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

i love that

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

yeah i mean the whole book can be full of Editor's Notes telling people to read books that don't exist

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

probs

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

as long as its not on the cover, we can get away with it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

but ye we should pitch it!

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:17am PST

yeah true

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:16am PST

hahaha I don't know if they would go for that

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:16am PST

but on the cover have it say soemthing about being a massive 13 part crossover

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:16am PST

have it say "1 (of 3)" where the actual number goes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:16am PST

we could make little things like Holy F*ck Origins

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:16am PST

like

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:15am PST

that's brilliant

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:15am PST

kinda imply that some of the heroes had their own books

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:15am PST

like "don't miss part 7 in next week's BloodPope #16!"

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:15am PST

HAHAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:14am PST

maybe we can tie some 'books' into it that don't exsist

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:14am PST

yeah pretty much

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:14am PST

it's more a parody of the existence

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:14am PST

but i definitely had it on my mind when i was taking a showering and thinking of this

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:14am PST

i mean, i don't know the plot of their story really

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

OMG yeah it totally is

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

so we can actually reveal a Mother Nature

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

plus it's a parody on the actionverse

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

i tried to give her a backstory that connects to Mother Nature

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

I likey

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

plus with her

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

thats cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

no problemo

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

haha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

i dunno maybe i'm an ass for thinking that

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

but maybe, if possible, still have it be cooler than Zombie Tramp or Vampblade

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:13am PST

okay

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:12am PST

i kinda wanna do a parody of Danger Zone right under their own noses

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:12am PST

I already know how to slip in some god dick

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:12am PST

with Magdalene

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:12am PST

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:12am PST

but it we turn it up to 11 and put a dick in its ear, that's fun

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

like there's nothing i hate more than heaven vs hell stories

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

yeah exactly

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

ye

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

and glitter

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

taking an almost generic plot and sprinkle it with dicks

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

but yeah the little stuff, like pacifist Cosmos who doesn't wanna fight at all

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

haha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:11am PST

i think i could!! but i dunno if anyone else would agree

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:10am PST

on one hand I hate it when people do this, but on the other hand I think you could make it work

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:10am PST

mostly i'm into the little things with it

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:09am PST

ohhh i see

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:09am PST

I know thats why I think I might like our version of it

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:09am PST

but it's still part of it, whether it's being poking fun at or not

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:09am PST

i mean, i'm approaching it satirically

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:08am PST

and the last thing i want to do is flesh out a plot that doesn't suit you!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:08am PST

but ye it might be coool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:08am PST

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:08am PST

thats kinda why I don't like 'em :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:08am PST

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

because isn't that how these superhero stories all are?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

okay

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

yeah i kinda did that on purpose too

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

ye the soap opera stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

my big thing is that it almost sounds like a smaller story arc in a bigger story arc?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

superhero soap opera stuff

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:07am PST

so not only are they all sort of reluctant to fight Holy Ghost but they fight each other too

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:06am PST

i purposefully designed the characters so they won't get along that well

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:06am PST

ofcourse

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:06am PST

but really it's all about the littler conflicts

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:06am PST

like, that's just a basic plot to put the character in conflict

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:06am PST

yeah i think it all comes down to the execution

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:05am PST

might work

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:05am PST

mhhh

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:05am PST

and then wants to turn Earth and Heaven into Hell as well

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:04am PST

so he basically takes control of Hell

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:04am PST

at the New Apostles for not stopping Herc and God for letting any of it happen

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:04am PST

he's pissed

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:04am PST

the story is that the Holy Spirit has turned into the Holy Ghost and sorta gone a bit mad in the process

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

but what is the story?

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

and some fighting, of course

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

like what they're up to now with Rad as a one year old

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

cool

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

and Rad

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

then the second issue has to have cameos from Jesus and Satan

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

ye

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:03am PST

ends with a splash page of God joining the team so it's all like "WHOAAA"

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:02am PST

the first one just pretty much catches people up to speed with the character stuff in the doc

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:02am PST

is imagining it as three issues

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:02am PST

where i am with that story right now

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:01am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:00am PST

"why did i like that???"

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:00am PST

that's what i think all the time

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:00am PST

no it's great

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 2:00am PST

it was a little sad but hey who cares

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:59am PST

hahahaha i like that thought process

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:54am PST

first I was thinking :"can we steal the story of the Avengers movie? oh it didn't have a story! why did I like that movie at the time?"

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:53am PST

dig it thus far I was thinking of the same angle

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:53am PST

read the new apostles doc

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:52am PST

yup

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:52am PST

talking to each other

Nick MarinoFriday, February 5, 2016 at 1:52am PST

hahahah just a comic book of liquid splatters

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, February 5, 2016 at 12:24am PST

Liquid Slatter might even be the title

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 11:16pm PST

no problemo :)

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 9:26pm PST

*lots

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 9:26pm PST

whatever we do next, let's put lot of liquid splatters in it

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 9:26pm PST

flatting all of this blood is ridiculously fun

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 1:20pm PST

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1px52lz59hNiK5Z6i8zisqa7Px8S-P_0IrM_O2GdDhwE

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

i always get lots of ideas in the shower

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:31pm PST

agreed

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:31pm PST

or 2. we have a story so good we cant resist?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:31pm PST

cuz what if 1. we actually dont have a good story

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:31pm PST

like bowling or dog or whatever

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

i think we should prep it like we would prep any other concept

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

just had another idea

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:30pm PST

actually

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:29pm PST

brbish

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

okay imma ponder this in the shower

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

it's an unknown right now

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

it could be

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

but you're right

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

but C&C might be even longer

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

I know

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

but it would be at least summer before it starts coming out

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

yeah

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

possibly

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

the big thing with that is, we have nothing out now, and that could get us in stores

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

but i still have reservations about it

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

in general, it interests me more than Holy F*ck for various reasons

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

maybe do a pros and cons list

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

we should hash it out in London too

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

yeah so New Apostles

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

understood

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

superhero thingy killed it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

I'm good

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

superhero thingy

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

only five or so pages i think

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

it's okay

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

is it good?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

when you click on North America, it says "/AnimatedPitches/Pages/WestCoastPitch.aspx" in the URL

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:29am PST

but i think it's all about the studio we would work with

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:28am PST

and i might be wrong

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:28am PST

i think

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:28am PST

cool

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:24am PST

i think i'm gonna ask them about it on tumblr

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:19am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:19am PST

ahhhhhh which door do we choose?

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:17am PST

i'll read over all of the submission details so it'll just be floating in the back of my head

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:17am PST

great idea

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:15am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:14am PST

yeah we ask them for advice so that's nice

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, February 4, 2016 at 10:14am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:40am PST

i just wonder if they're gonna charge me for it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:39am PST

oh welll

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:39am PST

which i guess means that i get these new episodes whether i want them or not!

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:39am PST

so i bought a season pass for the show on amazon

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:33am PST

hahah

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:33am PST

but daaaaaaaaaamn it had some boring writing

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:33am PST

this episode was cute

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:32am PST

i mean

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:32am PST

so sad

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:26am PST

liek I don't give a fuck what piggy sounds like as long as it's loud and funny

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:25am PST

you're right

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:25am PST

yeah

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:25am PST

ohhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:25am PST

I mean writing voices

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:24am PST

if they were still funny

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:24am PST

i don't mind the new voices

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:24am PST

off

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:24am PST

it's just

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:24am PST

to me it's the writing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:22am PST

the original voice was so strong

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:22am PST

it's kinda hard

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:21am PST

and i don't think they work well under different creators

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:21am PST

yes

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:21am PST

almost everyone who made the muppets good are dead or retired

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:20am PST

should have probably made it a netflix thing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:20am PST

thats sad

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

it's gonna get cancelled for sure

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

kinda sad

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

:(

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

it's not even funny

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

and it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

and i'm watching the first new episode now

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

why?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

with a new showrunner

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

whu?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

but they just relaunched it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:19am PST

is got nice and strange as it carried on

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:18am PST

what I saw I liked

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:18am PST

but i really liked where the show was going

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:18am PST

it's weird

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:18am PST

a little, but it's not easy to get a hold of

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:17am PST

have you seen any of this new muppets show?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:16am PST

that's pretty close to knowing him

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:16am PST

weird, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:16am PST

I just listened to hours of you two talk

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:16am PST

oh well I don't even know the guy

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:15am PST

that might be it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:15am PST

from what I understood he want's it but he doesn't quite want to put in the efford?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:14am PST

cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:14am PST

yeah she's almost 3

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:14am PST

but his head isn't in it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:14am PST

he's got a kid right?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:14am PST

it's a shame too because he could kill some pages if he just took his time and did it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

thats sad

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

like everything

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

:(

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

he kinda gave up on life

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

but i haven't heard a thing about it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

shawn

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

you were gonna pitch it with Shaun right?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

supposedly shawn is drawing a script i wrote for him a year ago

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:13am PST

oh cool i already told you

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:12am PST

I like that better

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:12am PST

I remeber

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:12am PST

that has a lot of similarities to it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:12am PST

i've got this story called Li'l Bastards

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:11am PST

3 tops

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:11am PST

but I don't see this idea being a 6 issue mini

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:11am PST

hey it's just the first of many randos who will approach you

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:11am PST

ohh wellll

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:10am PST

that's barely english

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:10am PST

your english is fantastic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:10am PST

told you it's worse than me :3

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:09am PST

"Last Trainning Before"?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:09am PST

wow

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:08am PST

"LIL'(AMERICAN)HiTLER PLOT: Four young boys with the objectif of taking control of there school with guns to transform it into a Nazi camp. The leader of the group as auto-proclamed himself LIL'HiTLER and manipulated his three friends in his crazynest of being the next HiTLER...

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:08am PST

he just wants to get optioned

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:08am PST

because he doesn't give a fuck about comics

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:08am PST

i didn't with this movie guy

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:08am PST

yeah that's what i do almost every time

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:07am PST

instead of paying me a page rate

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:07am PST

I'll tell the guy to maybe just try doing small things with some friends

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:07am PST

like there's no one else out there making comics

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:06am PST

i love the way people who've never even made a four page story before want to pitch comic book series to publishers

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:06am PST

theyd probably take it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:06am PST

hahahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:06am PST

the french canadian kid wanted to pitch lil hitler to AL

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:05am PST

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:05am PST

writers who've never made a comic before

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:05am PST

i feel like that's 90% of Action Lab's business modeal

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:05am PST

plus 75bucks a page is living wage in Mexico

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:04am PST

but ye if you throw some money at a young starting artist they will draw anything

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:04am PST

just any comic book artist who speaks spanish

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:04am PST

thats why I said it

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:04am PST

well, not specifically mexican

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:04am PST

THE MEXICAN THING IS SO TRUE THOUGH

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

i'm impressed

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

you are a flatting beast and i love you for it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

throw money at a mexican

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

and beat them until they draw it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

get a budget

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

take them to your basement bunker

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

probably

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

and trap an artist after the show

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:03am PST

hang out at a comic book convention with a large net

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

and go make it a comic book

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

keep reaching for your dreams

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

i don't know how to say

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

like

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

i guess i don't really know a way to NOT be harsh with him

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 2:02am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:59am PST

yeah, that's kinda how i feel about it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:59am PST

also makes me think he doesn't care about his own movie

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:59am PST

that is bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:59am PST

and he clearly doesn't even care enough about making a comic to look into what it takes to make a comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:58am PST

he clearly didn't bother to go to my website even though his friend put a link to it in the intro email

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:58am PST

I understand you, but people are dumb

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:58am PST

nowadays it really easy to figure out how things get made

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:58am PST

i mean, c'mon

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:57am PST

but it's cool

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:56am PST

might be!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:56am PST

I think you might be a tad to harsh on him :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:56am PST

could even bother to use google for two minutes and look at a comic book script

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:55am PST

" I'm actually not sure if I need a co-writer. I think the story and dialogue is there already, at least for a graphic novel or for the first issue of a comic. But assuming a comic writer needs to specify what goes in which panel, that part needs writing, and I don't really know how that works. "

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:54am PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:54am PST

crushed his wet dreams with some cock

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:53am PST

basically told him i think personally if he's not passionate about making comics then it's probably not worth doing it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:52am PST

good

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:51am PST

i gave him some real talk

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:51am PST

ah ok

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:51am PST

i think he's already done with me

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:51am PST

we emailed back and forth a few times

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:50am PST

have you heard the dude out? or just got a mail from you London-gal?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:50am PST

let me put it different

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:50am PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:50am PST

nooo

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:50am PST

as in you want me to put you in touch with him?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:49am PST

ye

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:49am PST

the cat-man guy, you mean?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:49am PST

I think it might be 50% worth having a sitdown with the guy

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:48am PST

mokay dunno

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:48am PST

because i can't think of anything neal likes that's cult or obscure or even weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:47am PST

and if it seems like it's neal's taste, then i figure it must be a thing that lots of people like

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:47am PST

hahaha but neal is your bud

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:47am PST

would neal get this? is this his taste?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:47am PST

whenever i dont get something, i thnk

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:46am PST

kinda reminds me of neal from the audioshocker

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:46am PST

but i figure it speaks to some people

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:46am PST

i don't really understand that kind of humor

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:46am PST

me neither

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:46am PST

don't get the vid tough

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:45am PST

he's an okay actor

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:45am PST

yeha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:45am PST

that kinda guy

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:44am PST

he's the white guy

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:44am PST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_AId-TU8b0

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:42am PST

ugh

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:42am PST

like not even considering that it might actually take a lot of work to make a comic book

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:42am PST

oh dat bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

pretty much

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

he didn't even bother to find out if i was a writer or an artist before he asked me to be a collaborator

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

super heroes are hot shit so he want's to do one

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

yeah basically

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

and everything else he has is super boring

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

"screenwriters"

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

ugh

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:41am PST

but the guy is a schmuck

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

and it's not bad

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

that's the hook

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

i like that part too

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

I almost like that

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

so now he's on his final life

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:40am PST

a superhero named Cat-Man dies for the eighth time

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

mhhh movie style

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

but very generic

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

the concept is okay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

is it any good?

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

so he can generate interest in his screenplay

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:39am PST

ha

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:38am PST

to introduce me to her friend who wants to turn his screenplay into a comic book

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:38am PST

for something totally unrelated

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:38am PST

my one acquaintance who lives in london emailed me this week

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:36am PST

have*

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:36am PST

yes I'm gonna ahve to pass on this one :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1:36am PST

yeah that's a bad idea to make a comic out of someone else's joke

sometimes I just have this awesome image i my head, but it might not work on paper

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 12:54am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 12:54am PST

I like it to

Nick MarinoWednesday, February 3, 2016 at 12:54am PST

holy shit it's waaaaaaaaaay later than i realized

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 11:03pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 2:20pm PST

so there will be lots more for you

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

i've been working on flats every day

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 2:19pm PST

It's great too because the villains are in this dark, murky space but they're all happy while the heroes are in this sunny bright space and they're miserable. Works well.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

Yeah, it's not the most exciting page, but it's also a character and plot heavy page so it advances the story a lot.

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 2:18pm PST

LOOKS GREAT!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:59pm PST

but I'll probably have issue 2 done by wednesday

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:58pm PST

anyways i'll poop out page 8 tomorrow evening, it's not that much work. page 9 still needs a little figuring out

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:53pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:53pm PST

somehow boring an sloppy at the same time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:24pm PST

hahaha ye

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:23pm PST

that crying guy makes the screencap absolutely perfect

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:19pm PST

alsooooo

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:18pm PST

maybe, or just a boring review comic :3

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:18pm PST

that'll make for a great slice of life strip

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

whoa i never heard of anything like that before! a move theater subscription.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 1:16pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:48am PST

that's not how gelatin works anyway

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:47am PST

plus the whole gelatin part of it was confusing

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:47am PST

seems ways simpler

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:47am PST

if we do it, we should probably just call it Dog Eat Dog

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:47am PST

bye byeeeeeeeeeeee

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:47am PST

gtg bye

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:46am PST

we'll probably do the dog eating dog story

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:45am PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:45am PST

like i tried to push through and find an angle on it that resonates with me but none of it is quite right

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:45am PST

shelf it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:45am PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:45am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:43am PST

i mean really awful stuff

Nick MarinoMonday, February 1, 2016 at 9:43am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:17pm PST

i got a little carried away and had some fun finding random places that could be her hair and skin and towel showing underneath the roaches :D

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 7:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:48am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:48am PST

i'm gonna dig into our adventurer story idea later today

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:48am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:48am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:47am PST

yeah quick flatting is not a skill i've acquired yet

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:47am PST

okay cool

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:47am PST

but it's quicker to just start with one solid color

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:47am PST

gooooooooooooood

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:47am PST

that is awesome and makes me happy

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:46am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:46am PST

this is the way i've been doing shit so far

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:46am PST

ooohhhh just one solid color a character?

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:45am PST

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:45am PST

just give every character/oblect a separate color and I'll do the details

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:45am PST

i can just flat her skin around them and let you decide what you wanna do for em later

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:44am PST

mhh

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 11:44am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:34am PST

good poiint

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:22am PST

to be fair most people don't notice it until I show them how it could look better

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:21am PST

but if they don't see it there is nothing much I can do

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:21am PST

ai trieeddd

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:19am PST

no the artist

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:19am PST

is the writer lettering it?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:18am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:18am PST

SHIT

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:18am PST

I allready said that, this is allready better than the first version

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:18am PST

just increase the font size, decrease the space between the lines, and shrink the horizontal width a bit

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:17am PST

that is what they are gonna look like in the final version

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:17am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:17am PST

the fix for that is actually super easy

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:17am PST

the balloons are pretty good

Nick MarinoFriday, January 29, 2016 at 10:16am PST

NO NO NO NO NO

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 28, 2016 at 11:55am PST

I agree

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 11:54am PST

but they're amazing in the background

Nick MarinoThursday, January 28, 2016 at 11:52am PST

the stuff posted to their front page is november

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

looks like they stopped updating

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

yeah i checked them out

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

http://geekparty.com/ this is a website

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

they turned out well :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

me, not them

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

yeah what a mess

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

back in 05

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

I remember

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

i pitched to them back when they first relaunched as a website

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

the big boys

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

they would be perfect except they only do funny lists now

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

yeah Cracked!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:56am PST

Cracked is on the list

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:36am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:33am PST

because i would love to have our story on a site called Badass Digest!

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:33am PST

it's too bad Badass Digest is now Birth Movies Death

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:32am PST

ok good

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:32am PST

gamergate sucks pretty hard

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:32am PST

if a blog is on a gamergate boycott list, that's a good thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:31am PST

noooo

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:31am PST

it sounds boring I don't care

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:31am PST

you know

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:31am PST

so are the blogs the sexists or the trolls?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:30am PST

so the movement has become associated with a lot of sexism and trolling and general online asshole-ish-ness

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:30am PST

so now we are not allowed to be friends with blogs?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:29am PST

especially stuff regarding women and their role in the gaming biz

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:29am PST

in reality, a lot of gamergate supporters have been super nasty about their cause, and that mean spirit has crossed over into other areas around pop culture

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:28am PST

so now?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:28am PST

that's the pitch line from them

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:28am PST

thats boring

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:28am PST

BUT

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:28am PST

ok

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:27am PST

basically, a bunch of trolls feel that gaming industry journalists are too cozy with creators

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 11:26am PST

I know that it's a thing, but I discovered it to late to understand it

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:22am PST

we'd been discussing the shading differences on the first few pages, right?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:22am PST

I dunno the background shading is a tiny bit inconsistent?

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

there's soemthing i do remember about them, though

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

I could have made them better, but didn't

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:20am PST

I maybe should have but I didn't

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:20am PST

i don't even remember seeing all of those pages in color with the letters, i think

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:20am PST

i dunno why but i never downloaded all of the color pages

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:20am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:19am PST

don't think so

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:19am PST

did you redo some stuff on the first 11 pages?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:18am PST

yes

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:18am PST

so the date is december 19 on those uploads

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:18am PST

about issue 1's colors

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:18am PST

got a question for you

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:18am PST

yes maybe

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:17am PST

and then the redish style for the rest

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:17am PST

i meant go for the blue sky style in page 9 panel 1

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:17am PST

one of my messages got deleted

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:17am PST

oooops

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:17am PST

and then the redish style for the rest, i'd imagine

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:16am PST

9 and 10 are gorgeous pages so i'm sure they'll end up even more amazing with the colors

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:15am PST

still don't know what I'm gonna do about pages 9 and 10 but I'll figure it out when I get there

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:14am PST

ye I pretty much just have to shade pages 3 to 8

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:14am PST

Yeah, I remember the flats for the others

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 27, 2016 at 10:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:11am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:10am PST

ye I just need some assholeness to push me that extra 10%

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:08am PST

sometimes a chip on the shoulder is okay

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:08am PST

but the fact is that good inspiration doesn't have to be pure and full of integrity 100% of the time

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:08am PST

i know what he means

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:08am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:00am PST

allot of people taught colors were unnecassary and I have to proof them wrong... kinda

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:00am PST

oh yes, I just need to add to the line art

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 11:00am PST

these didn't have much interverance

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

i think the most important thing is that they really take the line art to the next level

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

beautiful

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

both the more conservative stuff and the more expressive stuff

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

these pages are stupendous!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:59am PST

HOLY SHIT

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:58am PST

but the spread after

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:57am PST

for the story the colors make sense but it falls a bit flat

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:56am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:45am PST

i'll make sure to show that she's super out of tune

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:45am PST

yeah, that'll kick ass

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:45am PST

hahaha broken music notes!!!!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:44am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:44am PST

https://www.donaldduck.nl/ext/gfx/content/duckipedia/cissyzwaan/cissy4.png

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:44am PST

it's a good start

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:43am PST

and i'm gonna put music notes in there too

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:43am PST

i still need to add the tails

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:43am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:41am PST

I'm gonna poop brb

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:40am PST

i'll show you what i have right now

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:40am PST

ehmm bad sining lettering?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:40am PST

any suggestions for the lettering of her song?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:39am PST

okay, cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:38am PST

it should feel sad and pathetic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:38am PST

becuase it's despatare

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:38am PST

yes, but I don't want that

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

i was just thinking it might add a little visual variation and help escalate the energy as she sings

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

yeah if you think a color shift wouldn't work, i trust you.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

gotcha

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

or not back to but IS blue

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

yes

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:37am PST

so panel 1 on page 20 is back to the blue?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:36am PST

oooooo I see

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:36am PST

and then I shift to red on page 21

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:36am PST

Implying that danger element

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:36am PST

maybe butttt I'm making page 20 boring also

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:36am PST

So panel 3 is just like it is now Panel 4 is purple-ish Panel 5 is pink-ish Panel 6 is red, like a lot of the fight pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:35am PST

Would a shift to red make sense thematically?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:35am PST

What if the colors behind her changed for panels 4-6?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:35am PST

The only thing I'm wondering is...

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:34am PST

And I think the simple approach to the singing page is good.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:34am PST

thanks man, I'm quite happy with that one

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:34am PST

The characters on the questioning page came out so fucking incredible!!! Just gorgeous stuff.

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:34am PST

I love the car page, absolutely perfect.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:33am PST

:)

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 10:33am PST

LOOKING FUCKING FANTASTIC AS ALWAYS!!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 8:19am PST

also boring! bit I like the color contrast

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 8:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:42am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 5:42am PST

the second page is kinda boring, but for a good reason.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 12:52am PST

anyways

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 12:52am PST

it's all cool, I just want it out there with a good chance of reach. If we would go trough AL we wouldn't get any money anyays

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 26, 2016 at 12:43am PST

ye just send it in

Nick MarinoMonday, January 25, 2016 at 7:55pm PST

it DOES give me an idea, though... which is that Cougar and Cub might be able to build an awesome fanbase if we find a kickass website to serialize it on first...

hahaha I like the idea

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:10am PST

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:10am PST

but im not saying "WOW AWESOME MOTION COMIC" would be a worthy achievement necessarily

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:09am PST

there's little love in them

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:09am PST

because these motion comics are everywhere and people just hack them out

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:09am PST

ye we can conisder it next time

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

just that we could do it

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

not saying we should do it

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

then it would be simple

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

yup

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

if we did a comic where all of the backgrounds are separate from the characters

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

maybe next time

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:08am PST

like

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

animatics

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

is to save make it that way from the beginning

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

we could by just making it high level aniatics

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

i think the way to do that

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

considering NONE of them are especially entertaining

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

i feel like we could really corner the market on entertaining motion comics

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

it's horrid

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:07am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 21, 2016 at 11:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:55pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:54pm PST

i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:50pm PST

I don't know man I just know what the crowd scenes are kinda boring to color and might turn out dull

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

so i say go with your gut, if you have a gut feeling about it, that is

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

and it's gonna look amazing

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

your colors FUCKING RULE

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:48pm PST

but the thing is

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:48pm PST

thoughts?

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:48pm PST

i mean, not getting away from it completely, but in particular a bit less red for the conversation between cougar and the fans

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:48pm PST

but it might be nice to have a bit of a deviation for the other parts of those pages

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:47pm PST

and the splash on 13 should be fading to red as it goes to the bottom of the page with the Regulars

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

should be red like the others

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

panel 3 on page 12

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

so maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

and excitement

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

i think the red should represent the danger of the scene

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

okay i finally got a look at all of the pages in the sequence that you've already colored

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:40pm PST

happyface

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:32pm PST

i'm going to look at them now

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:27pm PST

I'm gonna shower, but tell me what you think

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:26pm PST

or make it one big sequence that pushes it to the max and than have page 18 going back to local colors

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:25pm PST

I could have page 12 and 13 break this up for a bit to give it some breathing room

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:24pm PST

right now most of the action Cougar and Cun are involved with is 'red'

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

sorry

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

I'm trying to concentrate here

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

stop doing that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

thats kinda awkward

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:21pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:21pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:16pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:15pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:11pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:10pm PST

yup

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:09pm PST

surely a title to live up to

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:09pm PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:06pm PST

thats me! Daniel "fart joke" Arruda Massa

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:05pm PST

hahaha well yeah that's a far more literal comparison :D

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:05pm PST

justique is the equivalent of a song that really moves you or makes you get lost in the flow of the lyrics, and surprises you some times

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

I think you are more of the funny screenwriter type and Stique is the deep Novelist type

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:04pm PST

in my opinion, i'm the writing equivalent of a fun catchy song that maybe has lyrics you'll think about later but maybe not

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

derp

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:03pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:02pm PST

but in a totally different way

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 12:01pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 11:54am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 11:54am PST

Hahaha!!! Gotta make the cover red, then :D

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 11:47am PST

Stiques script are so good, I don't feel like I'm doing them justice

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 17, 2016 at 11:22am PST

I call #2 The red issue

Nick MarinoSunday, January 17, 2016 at 11:21am PST

It's amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:13am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:12am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:12am PST

I dunno it's all stupid

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:12am PST

if he had the pacifier i bet it would be perfect

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:11am PST

but now it's just a dude with locks and a giant head

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:11am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:11am PST

i mean, it looks good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:11am PST

it's dumb allright, but it's what they asked for

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:10am PST

it turns in to this

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:10am PST

so I got the baby face logo thing right? they wanted me to make the baby into a black dude without any of the baby's features

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:10am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 11:07am PST

fucking clients, making sure I remember why I have grey hair now

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:58am PST

i don't mind him all the time but he's so bad in this, just not a good actor

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:58am PST

he's a ruiner

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:58am PST

but the premise is really solid

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:58am PST

not funny at all

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:58am PST

he ruins it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:57am PST

it's good until Bill Mahr shows up

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:56am PST

hahaha looks so good

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:55am PST

the movie isn't even a porno!

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:54am PST

that's cool

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:54am PST

and it made me realize what works and doesn't work for me about the idea

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:54am PST

it was an Indiana Jones parody

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:54am PST

plus Justique and I tried to watch thing movie the other night called Cannibal Women of Avocado Jungle

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:53am PST

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:53am PST

putting Asia and Africa in there made the whole thing gel for me

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:53am PST

it's pretty funny

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:53am PST

ah! thats good

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:52am PST

i came up with a whole bunch of them

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:52am PST

or Myke Hunt Is Ready For Action

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:52am PST

Myke Hunt Wants Action

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:52am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:52am PST

yah know, with the My Cunt name and all

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

i kinda put more of a funny vibe on it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

i'll see how it fits with the refurbished concept

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

i think we had a half decent plot from before

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

figured as much

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

that's Myke Hunt

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:51am PST

But i did a lot of work on the charatcers

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:50am PST

I didn't work on the plot for the pulp adventurer

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:50am PST

ALSO

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:50am PST

so i'll put that into a Google Doc and share it with you

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:50am PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:49am PST

you should shower more often

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:49am PST

good stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:49am PST

:)

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:48am PST

THE END

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:48am PST

anyway, he wins and becomes the new Poo King sitting on his majestic Porcelain Toilet Throne

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:48am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:47am PST

so he's like super strong to them

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:47am PST

but the other Poo Kingdom peeps can't handle it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:47am PST

with the King ill and the other members of the Poo Kingdom ravaged by awful indigestion, Prince Fart must take a ragtag band of creatures and fight the Indigestibles. since he grew up in our world, full of horrible indigestible food, he's used to the pain and pressure of terrible pooping

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:46am PST

I don't have specific foods tough, I think but ye get it like it love it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:46am PST

are led by King Conspiation and Queen Diahrea and they want to rule the wealthy Poo Kingdom

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:45am PST

the Indigestibles (who will be personified versions of the food that you and i have trouble eating)

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:45am PST

ofcourse

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:45am PST

it's all a by-product of poop

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:44am PST

money, medicine, houses, everything

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:44am PST

that's a problem because EVERYTHING good comes from poop there

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:44am PST

and the people of Poo Land can't make good poop anymore

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:44am PST

the problem is that the Indigestibles are invading the Poo Kingdom!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:43am PST

and the King is now very ill and finally figured out how to use Poo Magic to contact him in the other dimension

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:43am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:43am PST

Arthur, who is actually Prince Farthur, learns about how he was lost as a child

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:43am PST

I like it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:43am PST

until they enter a secret hatch that takes them to THE POO KINGDOM!

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:42am PST

she drags him down into the toilet and through the sewer, like all of the stuff that they DON'T show in Mario Bros

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:42am PST

and she's like "Young Prince, I'm so glad I've finally reached you!!! Your kingdom is in danger!!!!!!!"

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

Turdwina or something

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

it's a magical fairy

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

as he's sitting on the toilet almost dead from this horrible poo, his turd floats up into the air

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

of course

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

sore asshole

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:41am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:40am PST

brutal

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:40am PST

it's a big one

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:40am PST

once we're caught up to where he is in life, we see him at his shitty job and he has to poop

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:40am PST

yes

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:40am PST

we start out by seeing this guy, Arthur, living his life from a kid to an adult, dealing with his digestion issues

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:39am PST

it's called The Incredible Bathroom Story

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:39am PST

its like Adventure Time meets Mario Brothers but with poop

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:39am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:39am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:39am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:35am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:35am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:14am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, January 15, 2016 at 10:13am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 12:49pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:38am PST

might write up a basic plot today

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:38am PST

imagining the pulp story in the Secret Pope style AND with Asia and Africa gets me psyched to give it a shot

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:37am PST

you're right about the style

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:37am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:34am PST

animal chef wouldn't work with that

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:28am PST

oh shitttt.... Asia and Africa could be in the pulp thing!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:28am PST

what was the other idea? the animal chef? dunno if it would work well with that.

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:28am PST

space bowling or pulp guy would eb good with that

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:28am PST

wherever it ends up

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:28am PST

but i think doing something inspired by the style you used on that page would be PERFECT for our next story!

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:27am PST

yup, me too

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:24am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:23am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:23am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:22am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:21am PST

that pope page is AMAZING

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:14am PST

it's rough and messy in a great way

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:13am PST

the secret pope page does get my creative dick a little hard

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 11:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 14, 2016 at 9:51am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 14, 2016 at 9:50am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:34am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:32am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:08am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:08am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:07am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 9:04am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 8:46am PST

i think they got your name wrong on every issue of this series.

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 8:45am PST

yes it is exploiting, thats what makes it good

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 8:45am PST

ugh

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 8:38am PST

I can't tell if comiXology is a hot mess or if it's Action Lab, but our collected edition is all fucked up just like it was with Holy F*ck.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 8:22am PST

i made it for for fun yesterday but i feel a little weird about sharing it, like it would kinda be exploiting his death

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, January 13, 2016 at 1:14am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 3:39pm PST

i know the name dorian grey but have NO idea what it's about!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 2:18am PST

I have this old idea of re-imagening Dorian Grey as a Bowie/Iggy type of rocks star, now I'm thinking it might work pretty well as a 2 issue mini series

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 2:01am PST

k cool thanks!

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 2:01am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:59am PST

i don't know british slang too well

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:59am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:57am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:55am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:55am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:47am PST

Ha, it's the little Goblin-y(a smaller version of a goblin?) have you been... a bad boy?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:46am PST

pretty bad

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:45am PST

how bad were they translated?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:43am PST

I dunno maybe I'll just do try out page based on an earlie 80 or something spiderman comic

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:35am PST

no, of course not

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:32am PST

I could maybe get someone to translate one for me, but thats just not quite the same

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:25am PST

it's hard to find a comic thats old enough and translated

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:25am PST

thats kinda hard

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:24am PST

it would be great if you find some public domain comic to do it with

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:24am PST

yesh

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:24am PST

it's a super cool experiment

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:19am PST

I've had this idea for many years, but the time it would take is kinda hard to justify

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:19am PST

hahahha!!1

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:19am PST

I have had the idea to translate a translated comic back to english and than make a new comic based on that dialouge

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:18am PST

i guess they were cool cuz it was the ONLY way to get more of these characters

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:18am PST

love it

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:18am PST

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:17am PST

omg a boring comic made worse by a bad translation

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:16am PST

I think it was a GoldKey comic

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:16am PST

and it's translated into dutch, so the lettering is the worst

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:16am PST

yup

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

is it super boring?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

could, not couldn'y

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

it just boggled my mind that you couldn't ruin something that was by default exciting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

I have a Lone Ranger comic

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

but the cover was fucking exciting

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:15am PST

the comic was so boring it was unreadable

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:14am PST

indiana jones comic i mean

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:14am PST

couldn't figure out why it sucked SO much more than the movies

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:14am PST

i used to have this one indiana jones when i was a kid

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:12am PST

about double the pages

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:12am PST

knowing that we have more page

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:12am PST

imagining it in the graphic album format is very enticing to me

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:11am PST

rightyo

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:08am PST

(Tin Tin being the best example)

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:08am PST

in the US you have super hero comics, we have pulpy adventure comics

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:08am PST

for a european album I kinda would, but that type of adventure comic is bigger here.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:07am PST

I dunno, guess not

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:07am PST

do you?

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:07am PST

I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

like, i don't have a hook for it yet

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

Jones Savage

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

WHY

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

black indiana jones

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

Boobs on Two Wheels?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

i've had it on my mind

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:06am PST

that pulp hero story we discussed

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

oh BTW

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

kinda cool that he doesn't even need to see her to choke her

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

thats what I had in mind

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

it's simpler

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

i'll have him facing us

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:05am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:04am PST

I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:04am PST

readers?

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:03am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:03am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:03am PST

oh speaking of which

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

so it kinda needs that

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

haha I'm looking forward to it

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

but it might work

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:02am PST

i mean, we're just starting to discuss it so it might not go anywhere

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:01am PST

ofcourse!

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:01am PST

i'm just exciting to possibly get some talking animals going

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:01am PST

Z2, might like it

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:00am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 1:00am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 12:59am PST

enough

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 12:59am PST

it's a fun idea, it's just crazy anough so it might work

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 12, 2016 at 12:59am PST

heh cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 11, 2016 at 11:29pm PST

But I can totally believe it, If I taught you'd actually be into it I would have also wanted to do it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 11, 2016 at 11:27pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 11, 2016 at 11:27pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 11, 2016 at 5:28pm PST

Never thought in a million years anyone would actually be into that HAHA

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 8, 2016 at 9:32am PST

I propose we skype about it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 8, 2016 at 9:30am PST

I like this as a broad concept, the ideas specifically are not the strongest things you have ever said :P

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 8, 2016 at 9:29am PST

ok read it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, January 8, 2016 at 9:28am PST

soo much info

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:32am PST

My thought is that these short stories could build some online buzz for us in between comic books.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:31am PST

Full House is about three lovers who kidnap you children and then raise them as their own. They act like their house is some perfect shit out of a 50s TV show, but after they put the kids to bed the guys go into their hardcore sex dungeon and bang each other all night. Eventually, the cops get a tip from a nosey neighbor and they sent a fucking SWAT team in to recover the abducted children and arrest the kidnapper perverts.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:29am PST

ALF is about an alien who crashes into a family's home and proceeds to eat them into financial ruin with his massive appetite. He's also super gross and a total creep. The surprise ending is when the family discovers him peering through the open bathroom door and masturbating while watching their teenage daughter take a shower.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:28am PST

Super Mario Bros would be able two gross brothers that fell into toilet and woke up in a magical land where they eat mushrooms and smoke fire flowers and get high on stars just so they can jump on turtles and shit. They fight a weird dinosaur thing to save a Princess who's like, "Ewww! A threesome with you losers? NO! You smell like poop."

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:27am PST

I had some basic ideas for three stories we could do... all really short, like the equivalent of four pages or so a piece.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:26am PST

I'm thinking we could call it Retrocrap Comics or something like that.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:26am PST

What we did a few short online comics that put our trademark fucked up spin on some classic shit that lots of people are familiar with?

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:25am PST

Cuz even if a publisher picks up Cougar and Cub as soon as Feb, it wouldn't be in the Previews catalog till like May or something.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:24am PST

We're gonna have a space of a few months without a specific project to promote.

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:24am PST

So I was laying in bed and thinking...

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:24am PST

but i dunno if you HAVE to do that

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:23am PST

i downloaded the browser extensions for Chrome to do it

Nick MarinoFriday, January 8, 2016 at 8:23am PST

i think so

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 7, 2016 at 11:41pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, January 7, 2016 at 11:41pm PST

Nick MarinoThursday, January 7, 2016 at 8:07pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 6, 2016 at 6:50pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 6, 2016 at 6:49pm PST

i still can't do Saturday, but i think we could probably talk to Rob and Amanda on Sunday after our first podcast.

Nick MarinoWednesday, January 6, 2016 at 6:47pm PST

I heard back from Rob of Crisis on Infinite Midlives. he's interested in recording this weekend. at first i thought it was impossible, but then i realized we could probably make it happen...

Nick MarinoTuesday, January 5, 2016 at 1:01am PST

Danielle from Action Lab mentioned something about the collected edition of Holy F*cked being good for the Kindle, so I'm also gonna give her a hi-res PDF of the first volume and see if we can get that put up there too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, January 5, 2016 at 12:47am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 1:25pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 1:25pm PST

i think i figured it out

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:59pm PST

k byeeeee

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:59pm PST

GF time

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:57pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:56pm PST

yesss but I'm gonna hang out with Amanda soon so I don't know how much time I'll have

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:55pm PST

would you like to play with it? i can upload it for you!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:55pm PST

the copy is real good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:54pm PST

but that will probably not work

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:54pm PST

my only other suggestion would be to turn it into one of those crazy text boxes, and lean into that it's different

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:53pm PST

mhh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:52pm PST

aight

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:52pm PST

it was too cluttered

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:52pm PST

yeah i did that first

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:52pm PST

it might cover up to much

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:52pm PST

have you tried putting it on top of the bottom text?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

I guess thats better ye

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

i'm not crazy about it... but i think it's okay

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:51pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

cewl

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:46pm PST

i'm foolin with it now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:45pm PST

but I understand why you would want to make it different

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

yeah, i can see it that way

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

with the rest being so white and stuff it feels out of place

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:44pm PST

i'm just trying to fit our names in there

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

how could we make the middle text better?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:43pm PST

I'm not to crazy about the middle text, but otherthan that it looky fine

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

well, the time would be longer, obviously

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 12:42pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:13am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:13am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:12am PST

i just realized

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:07am PST

no rush

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:07am PST

my internet is a bit slow so it might be a bit

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:07am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:06am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 11:01am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:59am PST

i'll do a little concepty thingy in a few mins

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:58am PST

I think Holy F*ck is like a catch all, but your idea is also good

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:57am PST

"A Holy F*cking Signing"

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:57am PST

OR

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:57am PST

i'm wondering if maybe it should say holy f*cked since that's the new TPB that we're there to sign...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:56am PST

fair point

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:56am PST

i just mean in terms of spacing and effort, circles are too much work i think

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:55am PST

I dunno it fit's for some stuff and not for others

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:55am PST

circle word balloons really are incredibly stupid

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:55am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:53am PST

just make em fit :P

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:53am PST

cool :)

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:53am PST

so hearing your opinion on them helps!

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:53am PST

i've got a new project i'm developing with a cartoonist out here and he wants to do square word balloons

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:50am PST

it looky like poopy

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:49am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:48am PST

but making them 100% straight...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:48am PST

classically european comics use boxes for speech bubbels

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:47am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:47am PST

it's the book I'm coloring

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:46am PST

COOL STYLE!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:46am PST

I've been practicing lettering

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:43am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:43am PST

you?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:43am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:43am PST

yellow to start

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:43am PST

pink or yellow?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:42am PST

I can do it

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:41am PST

though your eye for that is better

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:41am PST

i can even do it if you want

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:41am PST

based on what Chris says

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:41am PST

as long as you leave all of the text as editable on there, we can just change whatever

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:41am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

I like that

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

just put the signing info on there instead

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

ohh ye

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

like jesus on the skateboard

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

mhhh

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

we can even use one of our unused covers

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

toss the same kind of info on it that was on the one on their site

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:40am PST

i think you should just make whatever you want for a poster

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:39am PST

yeah he's super weird about it

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:39am PST

hahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

but now even I am starting to get annoyed

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

I tried again two days ago

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

what should we do?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:35am PST

nope, any emails i've had with him, you're copied on them

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:28am PST

so were you in contact with chris about the poster?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:25am PST

k, cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:25am PST

I like cheeky, we make comedy we should put some character in small stuff like this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:24am PST

noooo

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:23am PST

tooo cheekky?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:23am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:22am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:13am PST

it alsomst sounds as good as the word fandom

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:13am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:13am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:13am PST

hahaha yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:13am PST

I like that you are a zinester

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:12am PST

yes

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:12am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:11am PST

I think 'funny' pictures call for 'funny' text

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 10:00am PST

I like it, but then my text should say "I can read I swears"

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:59am PST

thoughts?

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:59am PST

testing out a new look

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:59am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:47am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:36am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:36am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:35am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:35am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, January 4, 2016 at 9:09am PST

ye it's funny allright

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 8:50am PST

kinda funny that Dean didn't know shit about his comps haha

Nick MarinoMonday, January 4, 2016 at 8:49am PST

before i order the latest round of books, i can specifically email jason and be like "does Daniel get any comps for doing the itty bitty and zombie tramp variants?"

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:04pm PST

I have no idea what's going on with that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:03pm PST

I don't know

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 9:21pm PST

hahaha after reading those emails with Jason, i'm not sure if he totally misunderstood your question about variants or if he artfully dodged answering it.

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 5:16pm PST

reached my favorite scene

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 12:28pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 12:21pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:35am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, January 3, 2016 at 11:34am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, January 3, 2016 at 3:00am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 6:07pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 11:10am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, January 2, 2016 at 9:50am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 10:58pm PST

Dave says they're posting new issues all of the time so I'll see if there's a nice way I can get him to take good quality PDFs from me instead of from wherever else.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:24pm PST

yes

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:22pm PST

that would be cool, especially if we end up with them again

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:16pm PST

but maybe Dave will give it a new boost

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:16pm PST

yup could be their slogan

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:11pm PST

"can we halfass that? LET'S DO IT!!!"

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 2:11pm PST

it's like their life mission

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:58pm PST

I wish they'd just do it right and not halfass every fucking thing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:57pm PST

yes, but efford

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

i wish we could just upload that shit ourselves

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

ye it sucks

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

and it makes it really tough to find it through a search

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:51pm PST

plus, the company listed Holy F*cked #3 as either Holy Fu*cked or Holy F*ucked depending on the site

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:51pm PST

imagine if you buy three issues and then the fourth never shows up

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:50pm PST

but still

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:50pm PST

obviously, it's largely out of our control and i think most people understand that

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:50pm PST

that's how i feel

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:49pm PST

If we ask someone to drop 3bucks for a pdf it better be a good one

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:48pm PST

I understand, you want to put quality material out there

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:47pm PST

i just hate the idea of shitty versions of our stuff being out there

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

also cool

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

if there's a chance i can give them better material and get all of our issues posted, i'll probs take it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

i think i'll start with an email to find out what the deal is with it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:42pm PST

http://www.amazon.com/Holy-cked-Nick-Marino-ebook/dp/B019PORUW2/

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

yep we're on Kindle now too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:41pm PST

haha ha I'dunderstand you

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

also, i have a feeling that they may never upload Holy F*cked #4 if i don't contact them about it

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

i might cave at some point and try to give this company better quality PDFs

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

I don't like it, but I can deal

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

so i'll practice it with this :D

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

part of me really gives a shit about that but part of me is trying to not worry about it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

ye probably

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

they're around 25 mgs a piece and have a lot of JPG distortion

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

my guess is that ALE went through and downloaded all of our backup PDFs from comiXology and used those for the other sites

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

okay, cool, i won't sweat it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

I dunno, I personally don't care

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

should i message Dave to get the rest of our books on there or not worry about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:37pm PST

the jpg quality is quite low

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

what part of it?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

sucky quality

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

aight

Nick MarinoSunday, December 27, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

the same company that added some Action Lab stuff to Scribd has also added it to Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=IVQECwAAQBAJ&rdid=book-IVQECwAAQBAJ

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:11pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:10pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:09pm PST

Wine-o Willie! He's drunk, he's mean, he's puking in that alley!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

MurderMan! a hero for a new age

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

the companies will want mature readers superheroes

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

murder manatees

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

hehe ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

if that movie is a big hit

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:07pm PST

Deadpool might work in our favor

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

hahahaha!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:06pm PST

they might be a great fit for killerkoala's

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

ye, they might be a future option

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

dunno if it'll actually go anywhere, but i think it's worth reaching out to them again

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:05pm PST

that Z2 company is starting to do more and more stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

I think they are cool

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

yeah i figured that's why you asked heh

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

haha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

yous end it to me a while ago

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

https://www.facebook.com/blackmaskstudios/posts/941048562600385

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

oh right i forgot about this

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

tis

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:57am PST

ye the publishing racket is a hard one

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:55am PST

which to me says that they're not paying him anymore

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:55am PST

they weren't at Comikaze in October, but Shannon Eric Denton was there without them

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:55am PST

i think they got some venture capital money a couple of years ago but it's run out

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:54am PST

ye they don't seem to quite have their shit together

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:53am PST

i also dug up some contact info for Lion Forge, though i think they might be on their way out

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:53am PST

ye I think you could atleast get a response

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:52am PST

hahaha i know! but i'm sure i can make it happen, even if i have to personally tweet the dude who runs it as a last resort

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:51am PST

yeah, the caring thing mixed with the attitude is why i think they might be a good fit for us

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:51am PST

ugh that sucks

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:50am PST

the problem right now is that the only person i know who's spoken with them is Jeremy Whitley ughhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:50am PST

they seem to care, which is refreshing

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:50am PST

yeah for sure

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:50am PST

cool thing they did :)

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:49am PST

it's one of those things people say

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:48am PST

which, don't get me wrong, is kinda silly to me but i appreciate the hands on approach

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:48am PST

nice!

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:48am PST

their slogan is "Bringing the punk rock ethic to comics"

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:46am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:46am PST

cool :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:46am PST

plus the way they treat comic shops

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:45am PST

attitude to content and publishing

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:45am PST

why so?

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:45am PST

i'm gonna try to get in touch with them somehow

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:45am PST

they might be a really fucking great option for Cougar and Cub

Nick MarinoSaturday, December 26, 2015 at 11:44am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 24, 2015 at 1:20pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 24, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:40pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

they're good as is but i think we could have even more fun with it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

cool cool cool :)

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

once i get a better on the narrator voice

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

also, i'm gonna add captions to either panel 3 or 4 or both

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

ye I was thinking the same

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

my only suggestion is maybe a color that pops a bit more for the dong

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

man*

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:16pm PST

Limetown and Nightvale mostly

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

which ones you listening to now?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:15pm PST

i've never clicked with them though i've listened to a few hours worth over the years

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

like the potential is so awesome

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

i know what you mean

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

ohhh

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:58am PST

I kinda like radio plays

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

yeah there's not much cat hole in there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

I can change it up later

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

so it's cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:55am PST

In #1 there is just 1 mage I had not done yet in the cat cave

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

that saiddddd

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

I am working on the hard style right now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:54am PST

hehehe

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

*just go

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

it's easy to do

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

if we want to switch the first few pages once we get a feel for everything else, no biggie.

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:53am PST

i think jus got for the painted style

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

you might be right

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

like it might be too subtle from my perspective though i could be convinced otherwise!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:50am PST

but to me i'm not sure if that's enough to communicate the idea

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:49am PST

i'm not against your idea of switching it at page 4

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:49am PST

well i'll tell ya what

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:38am PST

I'll try hard edges first

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:34am PST

that said I also like a more alternating approach

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:32am PST

right now I am thinking I'm mostly gonna use painting style backgrounds and keep the hard edge for the early pages as it kinda twists from "classic super heroes" to our version of super heroes around page 4

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:30am PST

i'm into the idea of the cave being flat hard shadows and the rooftops having the softer style, but not to the point where i want to advocate for one vs. the other. they both rock!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:30am PST

they both look great

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:29am PST

frankly, i'm in support of whatever makes the coloring process the msot fun for you

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:29am PST

which i dig

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:29am PST

was that you were not only choosing different color palettes for different settings, but also different styles depending on the tone of the scene or the setting

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:29am PST

my understanding

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:26am PST

it isn't a huge deal but I used hard shadows for the backgrounds in some of the early pages and then I switched over to softer painted backgrounds... sooo should I stick with one of the two? or should I do the caves with hard colors and the rest with soft?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:23am PST

I need your opinion

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 11:19am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

cool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

ofcourse!

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:18am PST

about to post a super cryptic cougar and cub teaser if that's okay with you

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:17am PST

oh god i know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:09am PST

Nobody quite talks like that

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:07am PST

Like with the wide mouths and clearly pronouncing every word

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:07am PST

movie talking? like stiff or contrived?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:06am PST

ye my only problem is the obvious movie talking when Jess and Trish are talking

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:05am PST

yeah ditto. in DD, i have a clear cut fave but i feel like they did such a good job with Jess and her supporting cast that it's hard for me to single out one character or performer.

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:03am PST

and Luke

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:03am PST

I dunno I like Jessica

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:03am PST

who's your fave in JJ?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

we def gotta email about it

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

iz good

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

oh well I might watch the whole thing next week :P

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

but DD picks up A LOT

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

haha DD and JJ

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:02am PST

the beginning of it wasnt nearly as good as JJ

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:01am PST

maybe I dunno, I think I only watched one episode, but I taught it was kinda boring

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:01am PST

DD is maybe more traditional? but it's better at world building

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

but they're a bit different

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

especially 3 out of 4

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

DD is almost as good, better in some ways actually

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

I know

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

it's good! now I might have to give DD a second chance

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 10:00am PST

btw you were really right... people don't care about #3 issues

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:59am PST

i see you liked it more than daredevil :D

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:58am PST

awwww shit!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Watching Jessica Jones #13 now

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:56am PST

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:56am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:54am PST

that cool

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:53am PST

Yeah so as of when you wake up tomorrow morning, I'm just gonna be on email until this time next week. That okay with you?

Nick MarinoMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:52am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, December 14, 2015 at 9:51am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:37am PST

it'll take me some time to assemble it

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:37am PST

cons... not sure if it's worth it from a sales standpoint

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:37am PST

we can make it so the book is uninterrupted and put the covers in the back too

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:36am PST

we can put some extras in the back

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:36am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:36am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 9, 2015 at 11:35am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 8, 2015 at 2:04am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, December 4, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

Nick MarinoFriday, December 4, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

Oh wait no #3 has a house scene too. I almost forgot!

Nick MarinoFriday, December 4, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

I likes!!!!! If you decide you wanna change things, this is the only scene in the house anyway so it's no problem to tweak it later on.

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, December 4, 2015 at 10:22am PST

not crazy about the colors, but I have plenty time to fix it

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, December 4, 2015 at 8:04am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, December 4, 2015 at 7:25am PST

All the sex and money and power and food and sex and it means nothing

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, December 4, 2015 at 12:13am PST

so rich so succesfull but what does it all mean

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, December 4, 2015 at 12:07am PST

poor tony

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:54pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:39pm PST

hehehe nice!

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:28pm PST

He was feeling your art a lot.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:28pm PST

Hank 300 liked CnC #1. Also thought it was gross. I love how that's the one word everyone uses!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

we should figure out the exact specs so it makes a perfect size page when combined

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

and it helps for a clear overview whilst working

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

that would be cool for digital

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

half page

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

do you mean line style or page style, like half pages?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

i can dig that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:02pm PST

we can totes to the 4 row thing, it makes it feel classic and stuff but I would probably draw it almost like I did the Holy F*ck origin comics

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

cool cool cool

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

supermarket, be back in 20

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

but i would definitely be interested in exploring four rows rather three rows approach

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

when I work with you I feel less need to approach a project like that as you do the scripting

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:59am PST

i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:59am PST

maybe but I might have to do that on my own

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:59am PST

style

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:59am PST

tin tin stye

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:59am PST

of comics pages and so on

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

for you to do one of your own deconstructions

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

this could be a good chance

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

OH SHIT

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

fair point

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

because i feel like we've really gone to the extreme of satire with our past stories

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

you know I like deconstruction

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

i guess more straight

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:58am PST

we don't have to decide now anyways

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

but for this particular story, i'd be fine with it being less satire and more desconstruction

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

naturally

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

whether subtle or overt

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

there's going to be satire in whatever i do

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

either

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:57am PST

i could do wither

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:56am PST

us*

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:56am PST

what is more true to us and wouldn't bore is?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:55am PST

the second might be more fun, but then we might have to make him white anyways and more clearly a spoof type doede

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:54am PST

good question :P

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:54am PST

what kind of tone would you like?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:54am PST

good question

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:51am PST

would our pulp thing be almost straight or more like rick and morty

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:50am PST

looks wonderful

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:50am PST

cool!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:40am PST

it's one scene

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:40am PST

I'm gonna watch a movie or something I think I have time to flat the final 2 pages tomorrow

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:39am PST

smurtfurt

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:32am PST

hahah sure

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:32am PST

ye know your past to future something something fart

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:32am PST

so regardless of how much fighting and force is expended, only clever thinking and intelligence is really effective

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:31am PST

i think a cool theme behind the story could be that the only way to win is through knowledge and understanding history

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:31am PST

i dig that.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:30am PST

YEAH!

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:30am PST

it's a bit cliche but i think if we take care to make it unique wherever we can, it'll work

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:30am PST

soo we got Idris Alba as a time traveling Indiana Jones

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:30am PST

spanks

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:29am PST

thats good!

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:28am PST

okay, got it... black guy, professor at his university, super into some particular kind of research that requires him to get a grant and go to that country. while there he's in a vast library of rare documents. the librarian woman is an expert on the subject... even more so than him. for a while it's unclear if she's a femme fatale or an ally. we seed it from the beginning where the professor is being antagonized by someone who doesn't want him to research the artifact. we think it's his estranged brother. even his dead father at one point! it turns out to be the professor himself, who sorta time traveled as a result of the artifact. trying to stop himself from coming in contact with the ancient piece. luckily, the woman is from the culture of the artifact and knows stuff about it that's not even in public historical texts. she's able to unravel the secret to the artifact and help the professor stop his future self from going corrupt and using the artifact for malice. BUT the sacrifice is that they have to be banished to the past, back to when the artifact was created. bittersweet victory AND open ending for there to be a sequel like "Escape from the Past!"

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:26am PST

I don't know what I have to say on the subject

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:26am PST

but ye I dunno

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:23am PST

ehm I have never read doc savage but I like the name :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:23am PST

ye good point

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:22am PST

it's good too because that old pulp stuff can be super racist and sexist

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:22am PST

works for me!

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:22am PST

why not?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:21am PST

k, i'm fine with that. but why?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:21am PST

first it's gonna be either a woman a black dude or a black woman

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:21am PST

how could we do it without retreading on what we've already done

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:21am PST

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

so if we did a pulp hero

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

I'm not saying we should make it I'm saying I will at some point

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

nothing that grabs me about it

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

but it's like dungeons and dragons to me...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

it's a Daniel thing :P

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

i watch them now and then

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

no inspiration in it for me

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:20am PST

thats cool

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

to me there's no hook

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

I haven't figured out the way to do it yet

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

it's horrific I love it

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

no one cares

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

who cares?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_dt27_0vL4

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:19am PST

my problem with romantic comedy is...

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:18am PST

the romantic tension will be great for the subplot

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:18am PST

I will make a romantic comedy comic some day

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:18am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:18am PST

with romantic comedy in it, of course

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:17am PST

historical artifacts, libraries, seedy bars, towering desolate mansions

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:17am PST

did our own reinvention of it where everything is connected and nothing is quite what it seems

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:17am PST

I like that

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:16am PST

i was gonna say what if we did an Indiana Jones ish type pulp hero

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:16am PST

hahaha NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:16am PST

I want to do romantic comedy

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:16am PST

apocalypse and zombie and magical girls are all super over done right now

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:16am PST

yes

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:15am PST

we did super hero

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:15am PST

we did action hero

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:15am PST

ye I also got that

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:14am PST

i've read enough to know that about them

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:14am PST

I haven't read either

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:14am PST

both sort of fringe

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:14am PST

spy genre and fantasy genre

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:14am PST

with mysteries seeded in the beginning and only sorta resolved by the end

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:13am PST

are deconstructions of popular genres where everything is connected and nothing is quite what it seems

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:13am PST

so casanova and sandman

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:10am PST

warstarstrek

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:09am PST

yesss

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:09am PST

casaman

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 11:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:48am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:38am PST

ye

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:38am PST

though the bowling story less so, probably

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:38am PST

i think anything could work with that

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:37am PST

yeah i agree

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:37am PST

we've done 4 and 5 lets try 3

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:37am PST

just to try out something different ya know

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:37am PST

what do we have that fits into that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:37am PST

our next thing

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:36am PST

like in particular for our next story or just in general that's what you want to do?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:36am PST

I think I might want to try that

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

it's not uncommon

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

other companies do it too, JK

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

Action Lab hahaha

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:35am PST

does anyone do 3 issue mini series?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:34am PST

either could work :P

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:33am PST

but it could be a separate character inserted into the story

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:33am PST

and have him take on some of the character arc from Dead Weight

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:33am PST

oh yeah i meant more like emphasize that our main character is a washed up celebrity chef

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:32am PST

make a whole fucked up world

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:32am PST

It might work ye

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:32am PST

I think you told me about it

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

not amazing but maybe there's a way to blend some of the desperate celebrity storyline into Jiggle to give it something more

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:31am PST

i had this idea for a story called Dead Weight where this actor loses weight but becomes unpopular so he starts killing people for producers to get parts in movies

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

so for Jiggle or whatever it could be called

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:30am PST

does the sig say "Jacker '15"?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

she looks like a dude

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:28am PST

hahahaha molly danger's taking a dump

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:21am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:21am PST

greeaaat cover

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:18am PST

it needs an extra thing but it's a good initial concept

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:17am PST

cool it sounds pretty good

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:04am PST

oh wow i just thought of a way to tie it into Jiggle but i think it's too soon to do that.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:03am PST

so it goes from being a stranded alien to a stray cat to a weird uncle

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:03am PST

but it has all kinds of fucking weird habits. and eventually it starts to talk once it learns the human language.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:02am PST

and this family takes it in, thinking it's a regular stray cat.

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:02am PST

maybe it's an alien that looks just like a cat. or ALMOST like a cat.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:02am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:02am PST

okay, so for GarfiALF...

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:01am PST

I have to poop

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:01am PST

I am kinda into something that could lead to more but doesn't have to

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:01am PST

we could it could be allot of fun

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:01am PST

*in a way or some kind of ALF meets Garfield meets sad

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:00am PST

hahaha ye

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 10:00am PST

i'm pretty keen on KUTE Crew, but i feel like that might not be your cup of tea exactly though i could be wrong i guess something that would be fun to do would be a fucked up Garfield kind of thing. like way more depressing and twisted. truth be told, Garfield isn't that far off from ALF. we could just do our own fucked up version of ALF, in way.

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:58am PST

all I don't want is super heroes

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:58am PST

yeah, i hear ya

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:57am PST

I just wonder what else we could juxtapose it with

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:56am PST

http://www.comicvine.com/articles/5-reasons-to-read-kennel-block-blues-from-boom-stu/1100-154365/

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:54am PST

secret crisis on invinite actionverse wars

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:53am PST

ehmmm

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:53am PST

the Jiggle thing another one of those ideas that would be awesome as a short ish graphic novel but a but a bit iffy as a series

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:53am PST

is there a third kind of story you have in mind right now? i mean, if you could tell ANY story... what would it be?

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:53am PST

so we also have the bowling story, which we discuss at greater length so i'm pretty good on what you want from that

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:52am PST

okay, i remember that. it's a good observation

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:52am PST

or should be for that part

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:52am PST

good question, I don't really know. my biggest this was that I don't know how long it could be

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:51am PST

as i'm traveling, i'll have time to work on our in development ideas

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

well what would you like to see in a story like that?

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

not really just the story you made up

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

but i'm not sure if we discussed much beyond that

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

yes

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

ehm I like it

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

i know you'd like the main character to be a dog

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:50am PST

then email me about it :P

Daniel Arruda MassaThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:49am PST

Nick MarinoThursday, December 3, 2015 at 9:49am PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

probably $20,000 instead of $35,000

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

so they'll just relaunch for a lower amount

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 2:38pm PST

they purposely went for a super high amount and figured it was a 50/50 chance they might get it

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 2:37pm PST

yeah, they knew it might happen, though

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 2:14pm PST

that sucks

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

they won't make it anyway i don't think

Nick MarinoWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 12:24pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 8:03am PST

#5 is also awesome I think the final gag could be stronger but I have zero ideas

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, December 2, 2015 at 12:18am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

like it's cool and all, but it doesn't effect it much

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

I feel like that in both cases

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

haha

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

though it really doesn't dictate anything about how the character should appear

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

in my mind she's latino

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

esmeralda is kinda like that to me too

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

ye I understand

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

since the villains are mostly white

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

just thought it could be an opportunity for a little more cultural diversity in the mix

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

I could make her browner I guess

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

not really no :P

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

yeah it doesn't necessarily change anything

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

Anwar Rachid Kadir Arruda Massa

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

my cousin is called anwar

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

thats cool

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:20pm PST

haha sorry if im being a pain in the ass

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:20pm PST

oh one other thought

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

since nothing else seems to be like dark blue in the room

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

i guess navy blue would be my suggestions

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

not like it's important or anything

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

whatever I might change the chairs later

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

I dunno

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

i dunno, does it even matter?

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

since he's pink

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

maybe Brains chair should be a non-read color

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

yeeeees

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

oh one tiny thought...

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

boring flats

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:13pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

hehe seal-ed

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

and coming up with the KUTE acronym just sealed the deal for me

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

but after that conversation i was like "ohhhh wait i really like this idea..."

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:11pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:11pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:04pm PST

it's a way for me to mix my love of funny animals with Aquaman

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

but they don't fight with each other, they fight crazy underwater monsters

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

it's partially inspired by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYE5JWZ3CzY

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

i just haven't told you about it yet

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

i'm dead serious

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

hehehe I think you might not even be kidding

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

It's an idea I've had in my back pocket for a few months now.

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Their main enemies are the Squid Squad, a group of sneaky cephalopods who want to dominate the oceans and eradicate other forms of life.

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 1:00pm PST

hello kitty meets toofast too furious

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

GIJoe meets teddy bears

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

again, he's very tormented so it's probably just that seeping through

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

things are slanted to the left, maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

maybe

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

it's in the positioning, i think

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:08pm PST

it's like slightly stiff or something

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:04pm PST

ye he's got this thing in his art, which is hard to put a finger on, and if he get over that thing he'd be awesome

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

hehehe cool

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 12:03pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 10:10am PST

the comics journal would love it

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 10:10am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 10:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, December 1, 2015 at 10:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:15pm PST

ye

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:15pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:15pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:15pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:14pm PST

yeah

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:11pm PST

we look like a-holes

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:11pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 11:05pm PST

to lazy to read it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 10:59pm PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

SIGH

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:42pm PST

like the entire piece ends with a super simple typo in the last sentence

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

but i can't really in good conscience share them because they're put together so poorly

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

it's like we do these interviews

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:41pm PST

UGH

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

we are incoherent idiots and Caleb did help us look any better

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

or rather

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:37pm PST

good god Caleb made us look like incoherent idiots: http://wordofthenerdonline.com/2015/11/creator-interview-nick-marino-daniel-arruda-massa-creators-holy-fcked/

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 30, 2015 at 9:59am PST

cool :) I see am more as ideas that you can use or disregard

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:51am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:50am PST

caleb still hasn't posted the interview

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 8:50am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 12:50am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 30, 2015 at 12:10am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:23pm PST

reeaaading the lettering script

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:13pm PST

I had a weird fucking dream I don't remember all of it, but I do remember the final ehmm "philosophical" quandary

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:10pm PST

whoops I'll fix it later today

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:11pm PST

FYI i changed things a bit too. in the original script, Roach was speaking in that panel. but i'm gonna have The Brains talking so the characters can keep facing the way they're already facing.

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

but i would only do that with your permission

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

i can go in there and add little smiles to their faces no problem

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:08pm PST

the rogues should all be happy!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:07pm PST

page 11, panel 3

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 8:07pm PST

i've got another CnC #3 panel that needs a tweak!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 2:00pm PST

Miss Chievous jovial jester of anti-justice The Roach creepy critter of crime Father Fornicator pious pontiff of perversion Sugar Mama malicious madam of mayhem Diaper Rash insidious infant of impropriety Norm bullying bastion of blandness

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:45pm PST

Norm bullying bastion of the bland OR... bullying bastion of blandness

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

i'm glad you mentioned him

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:40pm PST

Nile Norm Nipple

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:39pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

Norm is the toughest!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:38pm PST

i'm writing alliterative titles for the villains

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:35pm PST

apparently that old blade stuff isn't even available digitally

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

gotcha

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:34pm PST

I just bought : FightClub, Casino Royale and Sputnik Sweethearts tough. So I'm good for a bit :P

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

yeah thats the one

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

VAMPIRE TALES #8-9, MARVEL PREVIEW #3 and #6, BLADE: CRESCENT CITY BLUES #1, and MARVEL SHADOWS AND LIGHT #1

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

I can get a black and white collection for 10 euro's

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

yeah but in particular blade, because he was soooo obscure

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

like most comics :P

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

the movie really reinvented him

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

it's a good concept but also very boring at times

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

like 3 bucks or something for a black and white reprint of his early stories

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:28pm PST

i picked it up really cheap on a whim

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:27pm PST

ye should look into that some time

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

the original stuff is the closest

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

but he doesnt have any notable runs

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

theyve tried in the past few years

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

so underused

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:26pm PST

blade is pretty cool

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

in London

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

how he was raised in brothel by the prostitutes

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

i love his original concept

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:25pm PST

yeah it's unclear why it's so late

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

http://www.bleedingcool.com/2015/11/06/dont-expect-that-blade-comic-book-for-a-while/

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

a website was being confusing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

not out in august

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:24pm PST

oh it was in the august previews

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

i dunno

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

i thought the artist just started drawing it a few weeks ago

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

I think so

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

it's out?!?

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

I think it started last month

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:23pm PST

but wont be out for a bit

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

it's sorta current

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:14pm PST

okay allready found it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:10pm PST

is there a current blade comic series?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

that's splendid

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

HAHAHAHA!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

those also help, I drew a very detailed bra and then covered it with SFX destroying 30 minutes of research

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:04pm PST

also

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

i just figured you had it in there to take some wanking breaks while you were working

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

noice

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 1:03pm PST

yeah! i saw that pic in the PSD

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

I ended up using a swiming suit

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

butttt

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

for #3

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:56pm PST

hahaha that bedroom!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

actually for allot of stuff in this comic

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

I do research sometimes

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

good one

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:32pm PST

cuz it really blends into the costume

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:32pm PST

my only suggestion is maybe her bra could be orange instead

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

So fucking good

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

I love the bedroom colors

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:31pm PST

LOOKIN AWESOME!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:56am PST

thanks!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:53am PST

I trust you 100,01 %

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:52am PST

thats*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:52am PST

tahts cool

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:52am PST

some of it might have to happen during the process

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:52am PST

i might not be able to put all of it into the lettering scripts ahead of time

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:52am PST

oehhh

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:51am PST

it's gonna be a bit unconventional

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:51am PST

okay

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:51am PST

okay, so it can work

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:51am PST

do ya thing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:50am PST

gotta check a couple things, tough...

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:50am PST

i think i figured out a way to do it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:45am PST

i'm see if i can fit more location stuff in the first issue too

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:44am PST

time it baby

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:44am PST

ok cool

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:43am PST

of the first issue, i mean

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:43am PST

because our fifth page requires one

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:43am PST

we HAVE to do time captions

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:43am PST

k

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:42am PST

yes understood and agreed

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:42am PST

OR intentionally inconsistent

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:42am PST

most of all, i want it to be consistent

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:42am PST

i'm gonna do another look through...

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:42am PST

it is too bas

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:39am PST

I understand, it's to bas that's all

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:38am PST

which is understandable because we originally plan for them

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:38am PST

but that's just not possible

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:38am PST

ideally they would always be in the top left

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:38am PST

problem is that we don't always have a good spot for the captions

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:38am PST

:)

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:37am PST

i do too!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:37am PST

ye but I like the old school comics thing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:35am PST

the only thing that's not obvious is when something is happening at the same time or later

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:35am PST

i think it's fairly obvious when we switch locations

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:35am PST

ye

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:35am PST

and mood / emotion captions whenever we feel like it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

works but I like them

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

we do time captions when necessary

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

we never do location captions

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

i think i got it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

OH

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

but they're not necessary every time

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

rather than every time

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:34am PST

so, for example, it's weird if we only do location captions when we feel like it

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

mhh ye

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

but see, we didn't set up the panels for it

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

because i want to use them more

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

allot

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

unsure of how often to use them

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:33am PST

i'm at this crossroads with the narration / captions

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:32am PST

SO STUPID

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:13am PST

are stoopid

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:13am PST

comics

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:13am PST

fuuuuck yaahhehehe!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:04am PST

okkkakaay flatting

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:03am PST

fucked that up

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:03am PST

I'm*

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:30am PST

it's terrible

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:30am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:27am PST

did you do this in college?

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:24am PST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6ivaXorxqQ

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:22am PST

it's got special effects!!!

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:22am PST

hahah fun vid!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:21am PST

I dunno I like the medium and what you can do with it and all that

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:21am PST

when i realized that didn't exist in the 00s in the same way, i realized the new stuff wasn't for me

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:20am PST

i think i was a attracted to the slightly lazy way that things got made from the 70s-90s.

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:20am PST

still my best short: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZykwjjlSkM

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:20am PST

I understand! the idea is very appealing

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:16am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:15am PST

i guess youtube isn't awful

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:15am PST

way too much

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:15am PST

ye even low-budget shit is soooo much ass kissing

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:15am PST

either that or spend ludicrous amounts of time

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:14am PST

to get everyone you need

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:14am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:14am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:13am PST

one of the reaons why comics are so awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:11am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 10:00am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:58am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:55am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:54am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:53am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:52am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:49am PST

emphasis on shitty

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:49am PST

they definitely embodied the shitty 80s action hero

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:48am PST

hahahaha probably

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:48am PST

the 80s are okay, in particular Bloodsport, which is probably the best thing they ever put out

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:47am PST

nothing good from the 70s

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:47am PST

im looking at the list of their pics on Wikipedia and honestly, they suck more than i remembered

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:41am PST

I haven't seen that many of their movies because they are not that available but I know about them and stuff

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:41am PST

cannon put out some real gems / turds

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:40am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:40am PST

I like slocky movies and that era of movie making

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:39am PST

entertainment industry docs are like my most watched genre

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:39am PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:31am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 9:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 4:31am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 29, 2015 at 2:43am PST

I can fix the drawing :)

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:40pm PST

what do you think?

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:39pm PST

potentially he should be pissed and still holding the note.

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:39pm PST

but since the second panel is the teacher reacting to his bad attitude, i don't know that it makes sense visually to have him leaning back in his chair with his feet up

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:39pm PST

normally, i'd just change it

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:38pm PST

his dialogue for that panel is FUCK YOU!

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:38pm PST

which works fine except that Cub should probably be in a different position on this page (a.k.a. the second time we see the panel)

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:36pm PST

the top panel is a duplicate from the previous page

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 28, 2015 at 11:36pm PST

i'm proofreading my dialogue for #3 and i noticed something that might need a tweak

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:20am PST

okay noice!

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:17am PST

k byyeeee for now

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:16am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:06am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:05am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:05am PST

at least #4 will be out next month

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:05am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:05am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 27, 2015 at 10:05am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 11:53pm PST

I can't really remember my dream, I woke up a couple of times during the night

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 11:52pm PST

nope

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 11:04pm PST

did you have a magical dream about your comic last night?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 11:04pm PST

yeah, i figured as much

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 10:59pm PST

don't think I can not, not do it :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 10:58pm PST

probably will be

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

so yeah maybe if you wanna do it for the euro market, make it a fucking deconstruction of the euro page style!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 2:07pm PST

well they all look amazing

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 2:00pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:59pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:57pm PST

it's a bigger thing when I write the comic

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:57pm PST

oh yeah i see what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:56pm PST

most european comics use 4 rows of panels. most us comics use 3 rows. how does this effect the reading?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:55pm PST

what does a square comic do? what does a small comic do? how could you make a news paper size comic really work?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:54pm PST

allot of it is format based, I am very interested in format

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

the original coloring, when it still was wonderkat, was also based on old comics

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

layouts*

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

and I only used jack kirby panel alyouts

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:53pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

I don't always do it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

I didn't :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:52pm PST

how did you analyze with holy f*ck?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:51pm PST

i wanna get some context on that

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:44pm PST

the part I like of doing a [insert thing] thing is that I get to analyse

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:43pm PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:36pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

ye thats good thinking

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

my general idea here is to combine something that no one is doing with something you like

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:19pm PST

I should be coloring but I'm too layzeee

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

DID YOU?!?!? hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

I don't know how I get ideas and shit anymore

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

hehehe maybe, I don't know :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

like a rip off of that issue where Nick Fury gets dosed with a hallucinogenic

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:15pm PST

right, right what if you did a rip off of Action Man with a fucking tripped out abstract fantasy / dream sequence in the middle?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:13pm PST

we don't have allot of super heroes, but they don't quite work here

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

yes they are but not in the mainstream

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

mhh if you put it like that :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

ooooo okay interesting like no one is doing art comics with abstract narratives and shit?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:11pm PST

deforge type stuff

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:11pm PST

no one does like ehmm whats his face

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:10pm PST

even tough the big things have been the same for 20 years the rest is pretty well covered I guess

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:09pm PST

diffucult

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:08pm PST

pfoo

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:08pm PST

what kind of story is no one doing in the dutch market?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:07pm PST

most comics are read by old dudes and kids

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:06pm PST

the dutch market is mostly Import from Belgium/France and the US

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

who reads it?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

holy shit what is going on with the dutch market?!?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

omg prince valiant? good lord

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Lucky Luke, Donald Duck and more none remade suske en wiske

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:57pm PST

apparently prince vallint re-prints also sell well

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

the new Asterix

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:54pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:53pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:52pm PST

right now the biggest thing in Belgium/Holland is an edgy remake of old series called suske en wiske

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:50pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:49pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:47pm PST

of course

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:43pm PST

I know I want to be working on a 50 ish page thing for the dutch market of myself, but I don't know what I want to tell. It gives me this nagging feeling. makes it harder to deal with other bullshit aswell

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:41pm PST

how so?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

me not knowing what I want has been very stressfull for me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:36pm PST

I ate to much

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:29pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:28pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

I think it might be smart to consider a couple of things before comitting to something

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

what else would scratch your drawing itch

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

maybe the animal chef thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:27pm PST

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 25, 2015 at 12:26pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 9:14am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 9:11am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:24am PST

yes

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:24am PST

a sequel to to something no one has ever read

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:20am PST

I also don't really know what I want to be making I have to figure out what my dutch comic for 2016 is going to be

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:17am PST

ai don't know

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:16am PST

but it's my opinion right now

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:16am PST

i might be wrong about that

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:16am PST

but what they actually want is something new

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:16am PST

readers think they want them

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:15am PST

i think sequels are sorta like a mind trap

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:15am PST

but I should probably try to figure out the numbers first

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:14am PST

people have been asking me If I'm gonna do a ZombieHipsters2

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:09am PST

agreed

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:09am PST

not very hard

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:08am PST

he's the one that's most improved by the sequels

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:08am PST

na peeta sucks

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:08am PST

or whatever her name is

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:08am PST

jesus would have a foursome with peeta, that buff dude, and mockingjay

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:07am PST

down with the hunger games!

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:05am PST

but we can claim that we are satirising the system

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:05am PST

yup we are just as bad

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:05am PST

didn't need any more

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

that was a one anddone

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

hahahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

Franchises and Remakes

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

even to things that don't need them

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

it's the thing now

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

SEQUEL

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

THEY HAVE TO DO A SEQIEL

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

like they can't just stop at #1

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

oh well waddever

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:04am PST

everything needs to be a fucking series now

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:03am PST

hahaha ye

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:03am PST

i mean, that's why they adapt these novel series, right? TO GET YER MONEY OVER AND OVER AND OVER

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:03am PST

but if you thought #1 was watchable, then #2 will kinda make it all pay off a bit more

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:03am PST

that it's not worth it for you

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:02am PST

if you're not already curious about what happens next

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:02am PST

i think the think is...

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 8:02am PST

i know exactly what you mean

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:56am PST

ment

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:56am PST

that was not a word but I bet you know what I mean

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:56am PST

and I need to spend another 2,5 hours on an adative to make it good?

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:55am PST

I spend 2.5 hours of my life on something

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:55am PST

but to me that sounds kinda annoying

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:54am PST

like, the fact that it continues and go in an interesting direction makes the whole thing work

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:54am PST

thats what Amanda said

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:54am PST

in some ways, the second one is what makes the first one good

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:53am PST

Amanda made me watch it

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:53am PST

in fact, i probably never wouldve seen it if she and fawn hadnt wanted to go

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:53am PST

I just don't feel like the movie is made for me anyways

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:53am PST

we saw the movie together

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:53am PST

yeah sophie and i used to talk about it

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:52am PST

ye I hear you talk about it on a podcast once

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 7:52am PST

i think it's interesting how gender and race are injected into the story via the capital vs. the districts. it's even more heavy handed in the book, which i actually found to be worse than the movie.

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 21, 2015 at 12:12am PST

most motivations are very unclear and shit like that

I think better when I ramble

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:07am PST

skype is easier for me

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:07am PST

pfoe either is fine I guess?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:07am PST

should we skype first? or just send each other google doc type of stuff?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:07am PST

what would be the best way to spitball ideas for this?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:06am PST

so for realsies

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:06am PST

that sounds neat

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:03am PST

the characters are usually super intense but what they do is silly and only one girl realises it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 11:02am PST

it has a story but it takes time to make fun of the medium and shit

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:57am PST

it's pure nonsense

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:57am PST

it's awesome

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:57am PST

yup

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:56am PST

very fun though

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:56am PST

that's like the stereotypical nonsensical manga page

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:56am PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:56am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:55am PST

oehhh

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:55am PST

cuz each ball gets a color

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:55am PST

this bowling comic could be the PERFECT thing for the black and white with spot color approach

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:55am PST

BTW

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:55am PST

never seen it but i dig it

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:53am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:51am PST

do you know Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:51am PST

but I guess the chracters should be pretty sincere but the whole thing is just silly

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:50am PST

like the scifi thing was just an example :P

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:49am PST

I dunno really

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:44am PST

i've already got like a zillion ideas if this is something you wanna try to develop together

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:43am PST

what kind of tone?

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:42am PST

hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:42am PST

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:42am PST

that's our elevator pitch

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:41am PST

Kingpin meets Guardians of the Galaxy

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:41am PST

like 100%

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:41am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:40am PST

buuuutttt ye think about it

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

Alpha Teens on Balls

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

Alpha teens bowling machines

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

hahahha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

each of their balls does a different amazing thing

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

and it's a ragtag crew of bowling masters

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:38am PST

it should be called Hard Balls

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:37am PST

YES

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:36am PST

SciFi Bowling comic

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:36am PST

I like how boring it sounds as a pitch, but I do think we might have to bring in a genre that makes it ineteresting

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:35am PST

hahaha NICE!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:34am PST

I was thinking about the idea of doing a bowling comic again

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:20am PST

:)

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:19am PST

i think it's hilarious

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:19am PST

yay?

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:19am PST

hahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:19am PST

also, comixology had to post three out of sequence pages for our preview :D

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:19am PST

i guess so!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:18am PST

but #3's usually don't get much attention

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:17am PST

guess thats the problem with a 'shocking' book

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:17am PST

ye it's weird

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

so it's this odd circumstance where people are now familiar with the book but also sort of over it at the same time hahahaha

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

we don't have a single review yet of today's issue!

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

i think we may have reached a kind of saturation point with comic book press

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

at the same time

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

BUT

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:08am PST

just within the past month

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:07am PST

like old friends of mine will send me messages like "so Holy F*ck has really become a thing, huh?"

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:07am PST

i've been getting some interesting responses lately

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:04am PST

ha!!!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:03am PST

just being selfish :3

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:03am PST

I'm just being a dick :P I want Josh to ask me :P

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:03am PST

i doubt it's an Action Lab thing because they don't care for her hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:03am PST

I know

Nick MarinoWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 10:03am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 9:47am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 9:46am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaWednesday, November 18, 2015 at 9:46am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:39pm PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:20am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:04am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:03am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:03am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:03am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:03am PST

i feel like it's kinda empty without him

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Nick MarinoTuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:01am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:14pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:14pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:06pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:06pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:32pm PST

moved the front cover over like three pixels

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

basically i copied our spine from HF

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

but ye just do whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:31pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:30pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:29pm PST

I'm gonna go to sleep soon

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:14pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:13pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:06pm PST

pisses me off

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:06pm PST

"make these colors have nothing to do with the story so far"

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

dumbass!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

hahahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

probably the Action Lab TIF

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

it was something fucked up with the file itself

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:05pm PST

yep that fixed it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

it might be a color profile issue

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

see if that fixes it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

weird

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

i think i'm gonna make a new file and drag the layers into it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

YEAH!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

did you copy it into a CMYK document?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

that IS happening

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

i just did a print screen comparison and we're definitely not going nuts

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:02pm PST

ye it's fuckedup

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

SO WEIRD!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 1:01pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 12:59pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 12:58pm PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:24am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:24am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:23am PST

yep totally

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:23am PST

classic

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:23am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:11am PST

also she is to busy with herself to partake in design discussions

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:10am PST

I'm just a assistant producer in the project, but people make me do art director stuff because our artdirector is shit

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:10am PST

uggghhhhh

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:08am PST

ye but it's a combination of that and dumb classmates

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:08am PST

reports are pretty dumb

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:07am PST

:(

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:07am PST

I'm very agitated today

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 11:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:59am PST

sended

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:58am PST

no sharing necessary

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:58am PST

i guess that's the one benefit of dropbox

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:58am PST

did it uploadz?!?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:02am PST

oh also i made a thing where all of the moses panels are in one long row

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:00am PST

i'm too lazy to find it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 10:00am PST

there's a joke in there somewhere

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:59am PST

oh ye my internet sucks

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:58am PST

all the same

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:58am PST

for you

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:58am PST

unless dropbox is better

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:58am PST

i'm always nervous about them having access to stuff before it's done

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

nah drive is fine

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

and then i'll surprise you with my idea ;)

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

I'll mean dropbox

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

upload

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

oh yah

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

for the image

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

I'll upload it to the drive so you can play with it

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:57am PST

things are really shaping up!

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:56am PST

sorry, had to restart then i fell down a tumblr hole

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:37am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:27am PST

I really don't know what image to put ontop

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:27am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:24am PST

it looks just a teeny bit off from the angle of the yellow

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

i think it needs to be rotated just a hair clockwise

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

thang

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

another

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

also hahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

give it some pop

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

cool

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:23am PST

also, might look cool if "to murder the messiah!" is italic

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:22am PST

seeing it all together back there, it just feels unecessary

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:22am PST

i think we should cut "following the explosive adventure in Holy F*ck." from the description. you?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:21am PST

yeees

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:21am PST

oh so other stuffs

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:18am PST

i understand

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:15am PST

I'm just always fucking around with the black on this

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:14am PST

again you are not

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:13am PST

haha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:13am PST

again, i'm kinda anal :D

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:13am PST

cuz right now it looks a little high to me

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:13am PST

also, the label is better but i think it might look more balanced if the bottom white of it was flush with the bottom of the yellow text

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:12am PST

i'm glad to take care of that stuff if you wanna upload the PSD

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:12am PST

no you are not

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:12am PST

i know i'm super anal

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:12am PST

according to Photoshop

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:12am PST

the black in the ALE template and the black behind the characters are both like 070707 but the black behind the bottom right text is 000000

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:09am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:08am PST

I think there the same

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:08am PST

could just be a JPG thing, though

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:07am PST

also, i might be wrong but it looks like the blacks down there are different shades

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

I can work it

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

hahaha

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

smart thinking

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

just too much text! haha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

not anything you did wrong

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

also, ugggghh just too crammed down there

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:06am PST

is it on the edge of the full bleed line or the safe area?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 9:03am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:59am PST

probs

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:58am PST

i guess bottom right corner. yah?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:57am PST

hehehe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:50am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:49am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:08am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:08am PST

okay gotta do some stuff I'll be back later

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:06am PST

nope

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:03am PST

coooooool

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:03am PST

lemme try something

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:02am PST

it's also a balance thing tough

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:02am PST

which opens us up to a wider range of images

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:02am PST

i'll be honest... i'd rather see more of your awesome art than have a tagline there

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:01am PST

what about something with her AND Herc?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:01am PST

lemme look again

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:00am PST

ofcourse but ye couldn't find nay good maria's

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:00am PST

unless it's tough to find a good shot of her

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 8:00am PST

and i'd kinda rather see Maria. would you be down with having her there?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:59am PST

also, while i like how Herc's face is visible, i can't tell what else is happening there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:59am PST

male reproductive organs

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:59am PST

maybe

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:58am PST

D*cks?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:58am PST

i also wonder if ALE will give us shit about "Dicks"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:58am PST

I was just about to say that

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:58am PST

i like it, though i think we don't need the word "more"

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

I like the last part

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

and it's funny!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

I just wrote a random tagline

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

whatever

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

hehe

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

sorta?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

like kinda 1

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:57am PST

because there really aren't any in this book

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:56am PST

i actually think we should change that word

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:56am PST

butt

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:56am PST

BUT

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:56am PST

it should say EXPLOSIONS

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:56am PST

while i love the innuendo of EXPLOTIONS

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:55am PST

hehehe now I can make it smaller again

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:55am PST

okay, some more edits

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:54am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:52am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:52am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:52am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

just the last part?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

well ya know we can shorten it too...

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:51am PST

I like the "peer" approval part of having him on there

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:50am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:50am PST

I looked at allot of dvd back covers

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:50am PST

hahahaha i disapprove of the movie but the design is good!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:49am PST

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:49am PST

i'm about 75% convinced that we should just cut aaron's quote. how do you feel about it?

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:49am PST

I got inspired by

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:47am PST

yup

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:47am PST

i keep forgetting about that

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:47am PST

also, we still have to put one of those warning labels on there, right?

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:47am PST

but i gotta say... it's just too much fucking text hahahaha

Nick MarinoMonday, November 16, 2015 at 7:46am PST

i'm so impressed how you fit it all on there!!!

Daniel Arruda MassaMonday, November 16, 2015 at 3:06am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 11:06pm PST

noice

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 6:39pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 6:38pm PST

emailing you about the reviewer quote

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:22pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:18pm PST

you can even email him without me on there

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

but no pressure

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:17pm PST

how about this? if you wanna email him this time, i'm down with that

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

it's been a while so I feel it would be kinda allright, but that he ignored us might mean he's not interested in us

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:16pm PST

mja I guess it's a 50/50 case

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:14pm PST

although that might be bad form since he ignored the last one

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:14pm PST

i guess we could email whatshisname again...

Nick MarinoSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:13pm PST

haaha yeah what kind of chord is that coming from the guitar??!

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:12pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSunday, November 15, 2015 at 1:10pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 12:01pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 12:00pm PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:43am PST

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:41am PST

where as Kevin and Dave will get back to him

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:41am PST

the problem with only emailing Bryan is that he's awful at responding

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:40am PST

possibly even Jason

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:40am PST

i think maybe have him reach out to Kevin, Dave, and Bryan in the same email

Nick MarinoSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:40am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:03am PST

Daniel Arruda MassaSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 11:01am PST

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:26am PST

i'm also thinking maybe we should ham it up a bit more with the narration

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:26am PST

it's just hard :3

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:25am PST

I agree with that

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:24am PST

but i feel like it'll be a selling point

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:24am PST

which i kinda don't even care about it

Nick MarinoFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:23am PST

but possibly more important than anything else is getting the logo / cover presentation right

Daniel Arruda MassaFriday, November 13, 2015 at 11:23am PST
