    Very nice. You, Dylan, and Paul are a lethal combination. And the colors are realy interesting. They look new and fresh, but still evoke the flatness of the silver age stuff. Kudos to Paul.

    dude I haven’t gotten the bound book yet but I have the printed tear sheets and the book looks pretty sweet. Paul did a good coloring job in your story

    thoese pages look pretty nice. the rest of the pages in the preview look great too, it looks like this one will be better than the first one.

    Now I have something called imaginary sex. I light candles, cover myself in oil and pretend I’m waiting for someone to enter the room. BUT NO ONE DOES!

    thanks. i was psyched getting to work with dylan horrocks on something. and of course it is always cool getting to do stuff with paul. that would be really sweet if we could all work on something longer together in the future.

  14. farel, on February 7th, 2005 at 1:51 pm Said:

    thanks, i thought so too. i like how all the backgrounds are monocromatic until the last page.

    yeah, there is sort of a sausage look to them. they were supposed to be dwarf hands. i originally was doing an illustration about herve Villechaize.

  18. farel, on February 7th, 2005 at 2:01 pm Said:

    No one could ever do that. I will die as a boy even if I am a 78 year old boy when that happens.
