Ape is HERE!!

APE begins the day after tomorrow, so as you can all imagine, this week has been hectic to say the least. On Tuesday we received a proof of the first issue and went over some changes we needed to make to it, before okaying it for printing. We will be picking up the final copy either tonight or tomorrow, along with our business cards. If you're interested in who did our printing, they will be advertising on the back of our comic, so make sure you read through the whole thing!

This is our third convention, so we sort of know what to expect when it comes to things like setting up and whatnot, it's nice not to have to worry about the con itself, and just focus on our product. Tomorrow we'll pack up all of our stuff to take with us on Saturday and probably make ourselves something to take for lunch so we won't have to leave the booth too much.

I'm not sure if we'll be taking card, so make sure you bring some cash with you to purchase the comic! And some prints from our illustrator and our inker!

See you this weekend at booth 613!!

Less then 10 days till APE!!

All the pencils are done, and now it is up to Keith to ink and Mario to apply all of his dialogue to the pages, and we'll be ready to print! It's been so great to see the whole comic come together, and we are all very excited to show it to all of you and to her what you think of it. Check out the APE website for details about the Con and info on where and how to purchase your tickets!

Everyone has been working really hard this past month to get things done, and as things get down to the wire they have really gotten going. If you ever thought juggling school and work was stressful, try adding making a comic book to that mix and you'll see what we mean! Haha

Cristian's friend Ricardo is going to be doing the printing for us, we'll be posting his company's information later to give you guys a good printing resource, weather it's for comics or business cards(he's doing both of ours).

Sorry for the lack of updates recently, I finally had to download Google Chrome to be able to post, so there should be no more unexpected delays.

See you all next week!

One Page to Go!!

One pencil to go everybody!!!
After that all Cristian needs to work on is the cover art and the rest is up to our inker Kieth to take care of.
It's really awesome to finally see the first issue finishing up, it's been quiet the journy, nine months of hard work on our end, especially Mario and Cistian, and now Keith as well. I'm very happy with the way the issue has turned out, and we can't wait to share it with all of you at APE in less then a month!!
No it's down to all the technical stuff again, printing the comic and buisness cards, and if Cristian has time, some original pieces or fan art to have at the booth as well.
Thanks for all of your support you guys, see you very soon!
