Hey, guys!  I’m excited to tell you that I’m now accepting pre-orders for the OVER graphic novel!

A week from today, the fifth and final chapter of OVER begins.  (With no more breaks, I promise…3 days a week, straight on ’til the end!)  However, NOW is the best time to place your order for the 180-page print collection of this story, which will contain 10 pages of content
never released on the web!

Why is now the time to buy?

Everyone who pre-orders OVER before August 31, 2010 will receive:

• A SIGNED copy of “OVER”
• FREE SHIPPING
• ARTIST’S EDITION Upgrade- That’s right, all pre-ordered copies will include a one-of-a-kind sketch on a blank page inside the book.
• An “I Support Indy Comics!” Button

The cost for pre-ordering is just $20, and yes, that includes shipping.

OVER is expected to go to print in early September, with Pre-Ordered books expected to ship in early October.

Why is Pre-Order So Important to Indy Creators?

Pre-order is a way for small-press and indy creators to judge demand for our products before putting in our print orders.  It is also a way to raise capital to help cover the substantial cost of printing our books.  Pre-ordering products from indy creators is one of the most powerful ways you, the reader, can support you favorite creators.

I’ve set a modest goal for my pre-order campaign, which I will be updating every few days to let you know how I’m progressing.  (And as you can see, this campaign has just kicked off and I’m already 12% there!)

Will you help me reach that goal, and pre-order the OVER graphic novel today?

Yup, I’ve got to take another small hiatus before the final chapter runs.  But I’ve got plenty of good content to fill the gap…more webcomic recommendations, art and sketches, and posts on some other things I’ve got in the works.

Thanks again for reading!

And with this page, Chapter 4 is complete. One more to go!

Ya effed it up, again, Felix.

Gwen’s had enough.

(Sorry this page posted a little late…somebody was so psyched to get away for the weekend, he forgot to schedule his comic updates.)

Hmmm…So, the old, “How soon is too soon” debate?  What say you?

The last panel of this page is precisely why I gave her the name Faith.  One of the earliest scenes in the book I envisioned was that of Felix walking away, having sunk to a new low, passing by a fence of signs saying “All You Need is Faith” with “For Town Council” in small letters.

One of the benefits of scripting the entire story out first is that you can sprinkle in hints that set up major plot points early on, so that they pay off later. “The Ring” was called out as a big deal as early as Page 8.

Hmmm…So far so good…
