Interview about my new comic

[marcusforealius]

I promised quite a few that I would post something about my comic when the time comes, this is also why I have been a non-gamer since June.

Here's a link to an Interview about my new comic given by my writer Jonathan Hickman. It dives a little into the book we are doing together "A Red Mass for Mars" as well as his book that He is doing all the work on "Pax Romana" Marcus'Fo'Realius = Ryan Bodenheim (cats out of the bag now)

This guy is a facking genius and I would really advise anyone who interested to pick up his first book "The Nightly News"

Take a peak. http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=137284

[marcusforealius]

Thanks guys!
If anyone is interested in getting the book, you will have to contact your nearest comic shop to order an issue, to insure that they have one in stock for you. call 1-888-COMIC-BOOK to find a store near you. It comes out January 9th

Anyone who purchases a copy can send it to me and I will be more than happy to sign it and send it back with an 8.5X11 original sketch as well. This applies only to my friends at WiH ;)

Here is another site to get lists of stores.

Plus I had to give a bump for one of our own.

:woot:

[marcusforealius]

Thanks Foz!

So...
we just sent the final book over to Image in Dec. and they felt that they needed to do way more marketing for the book because they were so pleased with it :) This means that it's been bumped up to summer blockbuster status. It will now be released in May with each issue coming out on a monthly basis until it wraps up in August.

I will post some preview pages when I can.

[PoPJaY]

aww we gotta wait till may now

bummer

[FiLTHY_SNiPER]

Marcus check the LiT forum.. I made you something :P

PS. congrats on the book :D

[Fovos]

i hope i will be able to succeed too.
good job , and good luck

[FozzyBear]

Ok, I'm kinda dense/new to comics.

If I want all of your issues, what do I need to get? I thought it was all in one book....

[Vash]

Well, I imagine it's a four part series if it starts in May and ends in August. So I don't think obtaining all of them at one time will be possible.

[ft-agent]

The drawings have insane detail. You should see some of the amazing stick men I can draw :P How long do you spend on each drawing?

If I had something that was a "summer blockbuster", I'd feel all fuzzy and nice.

Great job, marcus!
Now go see Filthy's butchery of your face in the LiT forums and mock him.

It comes out in comic stores first, one issue at a time on a monthly basis. After that it usually comes out 3 months later in trade paper back form, that will have all four issues and behind the scenes extra type stuff.

I think can order the trade off Amazon, but I would hold off for a bit until it updates the new date

Hot Dayum!

She loves the comic, and Marcus even more.

Marcus you and her should go on a date ;)

BTW, are all 4 of the series out yet?


@Fozz: it's second last, actually :P
