Filled with Thanks and one sole Giving

1 Votes

I’m alive. I’m alive. I’m not dead. I’m alive. And I have a super-sized comic coming out later today. (It is done so I can promise now…)

Thanks to everyone for their patience for the very long delay. Happy belated Thanksgiving, or as it is known in the rest of the world, Thursday. I can’t express how much your time and feedback has kept me doing the webcomic. And getting to know a bit more about everyone as time goes on is a blast. So many thank you’s.

I won’t ever let it happen again, or maybe I will, but I hope not, unless I do. Personally, I need to build a better schedule for the comic. I’m letting some hectic work take it’s place. But it makes me so happy to see that you guys are having fun with the animation project. I’m already jones-ed about seeing the final animation as it is funny in idea form! I’ll share a few samples of the animation team I’ve hired later today as well…

I’m a talking square by Harlequin

A special thanks to Harlequin for rocking. I swung by his DeviantArt page and noticed he’d drawn Fil! So “Yay” for awesome fanart that I totally stole from his DeviantArt page without permission. Go check out his full gallery HERE. Oh, and yes, Knitting is Badass! (Truth be told, I enjoy knitting. No jokes. And Antiques Roadshow.)

A shout out to the splendid Mr. Ernesto Noel (who has to be a spy with a sleek name like that) for spreading the word about the Pixelton Animation Project on his blog. YAY! :D

One other item of note before storytime: Welcome to Pixelton was reviewed by my favorite new person Delos at his review spot at PopSyndicate.There are far too many nice things said here, so thank you Delos. For someone who loves to do this comic I have to say I’m terrified of any and all feedback. Reading it makes me cringe, but this was all so constructive and helpful I appreciate it. One other item of note, three and a half stars out of five equals the Tab soda of the comic world. Take that Pepsi - we’re half as expensive and twice as gay. Hot. (I would have given the comic lower so GO TAB!)

Secrets that no one should hear: My old graphic novel is in talks right now in LA to become something more then simply a book. I recently sleuthed who the potential buyer was and I’m very impressed and excited about what I found. Fingers crossed for it to happen. I can’t say more or lawyers will kill me, and it would be legal.

Please scoot over to the nap rug and get ready for the first ever, Pixelton Soul Crushing Story Time: Once upon a time there was a book. It was all based on an idea that hadn’t been seen in comics. That idea started seven years ago, began production four years ago, and will be coming out in giant book form next year (GOD WILLING). Next month I’ll spill the beans on the big secret. It is the most excited about comics I’ve been since I was five. I hope you dig it.

    When you’re talking about your old graphic novel, do you mean “Nothing Left to Lose”? I hope so, because it’s the only one I read and I thought it was great.
    Am looking forward to the unveiling of the “big secret” too. I think I may have pieced together the clues about what it is, I’ll be honest when you let us know. if I was right.

    Oh holy CRAP. I didn’t think I would EVER… I just… my mind is blown. This… this is insane. Thank you SO MUCH, JOSH! This is so freaking rad. I mean, seriously, holy crap. This is just… imagine an author you LOVE telling a bunch of people that he thinks something you did is awesome. It’s that, only with me and you instead of you and somebody else. I just am so blown away that you did this, Josh, it’s… an honor, is what it is. You have made several of my days at once.

    This may be my fav comment section ever. :)

    Felonious: You are ninja quick sir. It is the good ol’ Nothing Left to Lose book (which you are way too nice by the way). Fingers crossed something comes of it all!

    Oh and the big secret - I’d wager that you have it right now too. :D

    Harlequin: Keep up the great art sir! My pleasure to share with others. So in other words, I’m starting a Harlequin/GamingRat/Nathan fan club right here…

    That_Dude: Ha! I found my wife because I could knight more intricately then the other suitors. Take that Captain Brotain of thirty-third rebellion!

    Alida: So sweet! :D

    Oh, sole, oh, sole mioooo…

    Err… Right. This one came on it’s own, and I had to post it somewhere. Just so this one doesn’t turn out like complete spam… Kudos on the graphic novel! :D
