My Kirby Krackle co-conspirator Kyle Stevens had a zombie-themed birthday party last Saturday night. Tons of fun, good food, poker and more. Here's a few photos...
Kyle and his undead bride:
My zombie self:
Even the pumpkins were drunk:
Fun w/ Photoshop - Old School me and Mandi:
I can't say more, since it'll ruin it, but if you have no patience, fast forward to the :40 mark.
I've been trying to avoid as much as I can about the new JJ Abrams Star Trek movie. I saw a couple of screen caps and that was more than plenty, I already know I'm gonna see it, so I'd rather hear as little about it as possible.
The new Entertainment Weekly has an article on it and as I was passing it by, I saw a little thing that said "they're Trekkers, not Trekkies."
I never really understood this. I always understood "Trekkie," but "Trekker" doesn't even really make sense to me. "Trekker" implies that you, y'know, Trek. Like in the outdoors. "Trekkie" implies you're a fan of Star Trek.
If you're a fan of food, you're a "Foodie" not a "Fooder."
The end.
It's like neglect. But for a blog. Get it?
Tomorrow Corps! #0 debuts from Devil's Due for a measly 99 cents and features the first 8 pages of the book plus a bunch of cool backup material. It's edited by yours truly and written by Ravishing Rick Remender, art by Mighty Micheal Penick and colors by Keen Kevin Cross. Friendly tip, no one calls them by their nicknames. Not to their faces. If you know what's good for you.
I've finished doing final edits on issue #1 of Shrapnel, the whole thing is done and ready for the printer and it's a January book, so that's well ahead of schedule. Just doing final touches on #2, so I should be done with the entire 6-issue miniseries in another month or so.
Just got done with the first draft of "Silence," the graphic novel I'm co-writing. It's clocking in at around 200 pages. More on that as it progresses.
Been hustling with Kyle on Kirby Krackle, looks like our first album will be around 9 or 10 songs. That continues to move forward well, look for news in another month or so.
Working on a video game right now too, it's not scheduled to hit stands until fall of 2010 though, so it's super early, I should be able to blab about it by spring '09 though as we're doing a cool prequel to the game that I'm involved in.
Also, there's this whole Emerald City ComiCon thing, we just had a few rounds of cool guest announcements, there's some more cool peeps to be announced soon so stay tuned to the site...
That's it work-wise. Fun time-wise, I've been trying to sneak in some video game time - Mega Man 9 is super bad ass, it's frustratingly hard and totally awesome all rolled in to one. It's like playing Mega Man 2 again for the first time. Also, Lego Batman is cute and playing it co-op has been fun. Lastly, Bionic Commando Rearmed is a great download for the 360.
I've also been watching Dexter Season 2 on DVD (awesome), checked out the premieres of Pushing Daisies (ridiculously cute, still good) and Dirty Sexy Money (I enjoyed it), plus Amazing Race 13, my reality show crush, is back on. I'm disappointed they didn't pick me and Paul (or me & Anthony) as we would've rocked, but considering I wouldn't have done a Yoda immitation, maybe they made the right choice...
That's it! More when I have it...
