MADMAN: Atomica finally arrived today! It's much
bigger than I thought it would be. I'm crazy excited about
this book finally existing and in our hands. A lot of
people put a lot of hard work in making sure that
MADMAN: Gargantua would have a companion to
keep it company on shelves around the world. The idea
that well over 2000 pages of Snap City comics have been
completed is a mind-numbing thing to contemplate. I
still feel like a newbie desperately trying to improve so
I can draw at least half as good as my heroes who continue
to inspire me. I'm so grateful to everyone who supports
what we do by purchasing these crazy books. And I want
to thank everyone who helped put it together especially
Jamie S. Rich, Joe Keatinge, & everyone at Image Comics,
particularly Tyler Shainline, & Vincent Kukua who put
in insane hours of production to make it look as good as
it does. I love days like this! But now my back hurts.
Great! Can't wait for it.
ReplyDeleteIs this photograhpic foolery or did you get a huge cardboard/paper mache version made?

ReplyDelete"Comic book artist Michael Allred was found today crushed under the weight of his newest collected works. When asked to comment the artist's wife and working partner Laura Allred stated that she saw it coming and now it was time to move on and color books for that Darwyn Cooke guy.
ReplyDeleteAllred is survived by his wife, three children, and overly mournful editor Jamie S. Rich who was quoted as saying that he thought that this would never happen and now his former shared plans with Allred to engage in suburban gang activity dressed as the droogs from Anthony Burgess' A Clockwork Orange at the age of 60 would never be." ;)
Seriously though that's an awesome photo, sir.
Funny Jonathan! Especially since my first instinct was to make one up with just my hands, feet, and a pool of blood oozing out from beneath the book. I guess you could say I "thought better of it". Always fighting my impulses to "go for the gore".
ReplyDeleteI hope this one doesn't have flip action corners, i don't think i have the manpower.
ReplyDeleteI slept between pages 421 and 422 last night. Very cozy.
ReplyDeleteVery cozy, eh?
ReplyDeleteYou oughta have a custom made sleeping bag of this and Gargantua made.
Y'know, going for the gore wouldn't have been bad... as long as you didn't somehow get your eye plucked out by a stray page. ;)
finally a book MY size :p
ReplyDeleteThe idea
