Progress Report: The Lunar Colony Auditions

Some random panels from The Lunar Colony Auditions, my third collaborative project with Jeremiah Goldson (after Rogue Agent Zed and Monica Furious: SuperDestroyer.)

Scenes from early in the story:

(Note: The script called for scenes where The Hulk and The Thing have a slugfest underwater, so I have no idea why Jeremiah is drawing images of a punk rock gig at a small club.  Weird.  Which one of these characters is going to yell "It's Clobberin' Time" or "Hulk Smash?")

I'm not sure why I insist on working with this Goldson character on a repeated basis.  It's pretty obvious that he doesn't have a lick of artistic talent at all.  Hmmm.  I guess maybe I'm just a total sadist.

If you happen to be the sort of charitable, altruistic individual who likes to humor no-talent hacks as they draw comic books with their toes, check out Jeremiah's work in the Hypersmash titles Rogue Agent Zed, Monica Furious: SuperDestroyer, and The Lunar Colony Auditions.

But don't blame me if you hate the art.  I tried to warn you.

Design Workshop: Jeremiah Goldson on The Lunar Colony Auditions

Jeremiah Goldson and I have worked together on a couple of different comics, Rogue Agent Zed and Monica Furious: SuperDestroyer.  It's been a very rewarding partnership, so we both decided it might be fun to take a shot at a third project.  It's our most ambitious title to date, a 90-page graphic novel titled, The Lunar Colony Auditions.

Here's Jeremiah's first sketches of the characters that populate the book.  Enjoy!

Introducing the Next Wave of Hypersmash Titles

I've written a bunch of posts about Lightning Girl Loves Rocket Boy, Battle Team Omega, and Rogue Agent Zed.  Those were the first scripts I ever matched up with artists, and I consider those the First Wave of Hypersmash self-published titles.  Two of those books are now published, and the third is getting prepped for the printers.

I want to take a second to introduce you to four more titles under the Hypersmash banner.

On the one hand, we've got Monica Furious: SupderDestroyer (created by Jeremiah Goldson) and Astro Crusader.  I think of those as Wave II.   

The creative team on Monica Furious: SuperDestroyer: script by Roel Torres, art by Jeremiah Goldson, colors by Paul Little, letters by Michael David Thomas.

For Astro Crusader: script by Roel Torres, art by Fabio Nahon and Marco D. Carrillo, letters by Brant Fowler.

And then there's Black Axe, and The Lunar Colony Auditions.  That would be Wave III.  

Black Axe: script by Roel Torres, art by Fabio Nahon.
The Lunar Colony Auditions: script by Roel Torres, art by Jeremiah Goldson.

The scorecard:

Lightning Girl Loves Rocket Boy.  52 pages.  Superheroes.
Rogue Agent Zed.  52 pages.  Sci-fi/Action.
Battle Team Omega.  52 pages.  Superheroes.
Monica Furious: Superdestroyer.  60 pages.  Sci-fi/Action.
Astro Crusader. 22 pages. Superheroes.
Black Axe. Page count TBD. Fantasy/Sword and Sorcery.
The Lunar Colony Auditions.  90 pages.  Sci-fi/Drama.

We'll add more details as things develop.  But momentum continues to build.  That's over 328+ pages of original comic book material we're cranking out.  And when all seven of these books finally roll off the printing presses, I figure we'll start to have the makings of a decent little comic studio...
