9/9/07: So I just got back from the BALTIMORE COMICON and It in many ways was a huge success. I sold a ton of shirts and I think I made some new fans selling BIRTH and NOVO. I also got to meet a ton of cool people, some were brand new faces and others were creators I had met online over the past months. However, the big News came half way on the 1st day of the con. Representatives from DIAMOND COMIC DISTRIBUTORS approached the table to let me know that BIRTH was going to be available through them for national retail!!! So come January you will be able to find BIRTH in your local comic store. Thanks to everyone who came out to support me, It was a really amazing experience and I am still on cloud 9.
9/3/07: After much talk with my publisher, we have decided that the best way to go about printing is in trade paperbacks. That means that after issue 3 of NOVO, we will no longer be printing issues. Issue 4 and 5 will be available as issues, but only in digital PDF format on drivethroughcomics.com ( I'll put a link in the store-each digital issue is only 99 cents!) The first NOVO trade will be printed in January of 08' and will be somewhere around 120 pages. As of now we have very few NOVO issues left, no more than 20 of #2 and 30 of #2, #3 will be out quite soon and will only have a limited print run of 40.
9/1/07: BIRTH's 1st print run of about 250 is SOLD OUT!!! To fix that we have put out it's new and improved (and larger) 2nd print run. BIRTH is now part of the national book registry with it's own ISBN code. All of the internal ads have been moved so as to not break the continuity of the book and an all new sketchbook section has been added to the end with over 20 sketches from the past 8 years! Along with this, BIRTH is now available on amazon.com! so click the link next to the BIRTH cover and purchase it, rate it or write it a customer review
