Quick Update

Pages one through fifteen are completed, with pages sixteen to twenty roughed.

Lettering on issue one will begin in October, looking to have the issue finished by the end of November and ready to send for print in December - the January 2010 release date is still looking very good.

We're hoping to have a cover to show you shortly, and a finished logo design in place soon - one test logo is complete, another is being worked on. Once these are done, we will test both on cover work and see which plays best.

Omnitarium

Work on our first book has started, with the art on issue one's first five pages done. Lettering commences next week, the next batch of art should be ready soon.

Omnitarium is a period horror, showing the infamous black magician, Lucius Moonheart attempt to reclaim life and re-enter our world nearly one hundred years on from his hanging. Using the misery and sorrow of those people condemned to hang in the titular Victorian prison, the only person that's stands between Moonheart and success is Inquisitor Blutstein, the man who originally caught and condemned him to his death.

Written by Jamie Gambell, with art by J.C. Grande and lettering/design by Bernie Lee, Omnitarium will be a four 24-page issue black and white series and should be out early 2010.

Preview pages will be posted soon, and logo work and so forth is being completed as we type.
