Blood is coming

Hi,
This week I decided I would start showing our latest creation "Blood". This series will be coming from Dark Horse in the famous "Dark Horse Presents" format. Neal will be running 8
pages of Blood for each issue. Since it is only 8 pages I don't really want to show a lot of it right now. Dark Horse Presents is on sale April 20th and I don't want any one to miss it so make sure your store has it on order for you. I know the first issue has a Frank Miller Interview as well. Sounds like a fantastic first Issue.
I also want to remind everybody that we have posted Neal Adams "Monster" book on Graphic.ly.com under Neal Adams. We just sent out the first Issue of Bucky O'Hare and we are pulling out other great titles that we own. Digital comics rock. They are cheap and they look great, the color of the art just comes right off the page. If you ask me this is what my dad's art looks like before it goes to print and becomes muddy. Neal Adams art is meant for digital comics. We will be doing more of these soon.
I also believe that Batman Odyssey is waiting to ship out. I know DC put in for new solicitiations. Please keep a look out. I have posted the cover so you can lock it in so you don't miss it.
I also want to remind you that we will be at the Boston Comic Con which is also coming up very fast, it is the weekend of April 29- May 1st.
Can't wait to see everybody

Now I am Digitally Publishing

This week has been uber exciting for me. I got to go as Disney would say "into the vaults" of Continuity Comics and start picking what titles I would like to see as a digital comic since we have a Publishers spot on graphic.ly.com. If you look under Neal Adams you will see my first digitally published graphic novel, the legendary "Monsters" that we all love in one story told by Neal Adams as well as illustrated by .... My dad, Neal Adams. I liked the book when it was in print but I love the book when you can see it digitally. You can blow up pages and the art is lit by the computer light which really makes the art look fantastic. Plus it's Monsters, how can that not be worth the $4.99 charge? It really, really looks great!
What should be next? What would you like to see? I was thinking Knighthawk and Bucky O'Hare.
Personally Bucky O' Hare has always been my favorite story that we ever printed which goes all the ways back to "Echo of Futurepast" . We could do Armor, Megalith, Cyberrad, Ms Mystic or
Samuree. So much great work to pick from. I can't wait.
Batman Odyssey- Just sent a whole lot of pages out to Bill Sienkiewicz for inking. He really is doing a great job with Neal and a lot of people have said they really like it. I can't wait for Issue #7 to come out so you can see the fantastic inking that people are doing for us. Golden and Neary with Bill and Neal. I posted up on my site the next cover that will be coming out soon.
You should also check out Neal's Blog on our site. He talks about going to the Boston Comic convention April 30- May 1st. We also posted a video of Neal drawing a Batman drawing. This is part one and then we have a part two for next week. I was just going to check to make sure it was up and even I who watch him every day got sucked in. Please don't tell him.
Please check out Monster's on Graphic.ly.com I promise you won't be disapointed. If you click the logo on my page it will go right to the site.
Next week "Blood", the project we are doing for Dark Horse.
Have a great weekend
Kris:)
