This one is just too good to not write something about. It is a project aimed at getting children interested in classical music, and it stars Brian Blessed, the Hawkman Prince Vultan in Flash Gordon (1980). They are looking to make a graphic novel to accompany the audio program they already have on CD, so kids can follow along and to help spark their imagination. The whole thing is set to the classical music composition Scheherazade by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Continue reading »
This is in response to Johna, who responded to a previous post. Johna was taken aback by my saying ‘so what’ about the 120K goal set by Carey (aka HMDesigner). He asked “…but do you mean to say that you actually AGREE with that amount?” Not really Johna, I do not. That equates to at least 2,000 pre-sells of the game in 30 days, and I thought that was too many pre-sells in too short a time.
Let’s remember this point: He was not trying to blackmail anybody. Every supporter at or above $25 or $40 would get the game. There were simply not enough supporters to hit the goal.

A few of the artists who got their start with Silverwolf include Brandon McKinney, Ron Lim, and Tim Vigil. Continue reading »

Andy Fish is an accomplished and respected artist who lives and works in the northeast United States . He has a number of blogs and has won many awards. He’s big, like Ron Burgandy big. And, judging from the items and art that I have seen for sale, he really seems to enjoy old cinema villains and creatures like Frankenstein and Dracula and such.
He’s also a big fan of the 60’s Batman TV show and it’s star Adam West. He had one of the first web-comics around, a little strip named ‘Adam Bomb‘, which I also have a few pieces from.
His credits include at least 16 Graphic novels and a number of screenplays. He’s big. Continue reading »
