So, yes, I got issue 2 today...  |
I love hearing this!
Did you get a chance to read the trades yet?
Please let me know what you think when you do.
The trades will give you an entirely new appreciation of the current series. |
Oh, I read em alright. Circle of Blood was probably my favorite story-wise. SkinDeep/MetaMorphosis really shined in the art department (I list them together because it's almost impossible to seperate the two IMO)...
Scarab was really a tragic story through and through. It was heartbreaking to fall in love with the character only to know she was going to be killed at the end...
At SDCC next year, I plan on stopping by your booth and picking up hardcover copies of all the books. I'll give away my TPBs to those who might enjoy them...

Thanks! |
nope. it was the same pic - black noh shirt.
you know, that animal clinc tank from the alchemy #2 was reeeaaally cute... any chance it's going to be added to the david mack clothing line?
pretty please? |
yeah i would totally get that too. |
Since both of you mentioned you'd wear the shirt, maybe I should make some.
Would you prefer it as a tank, or as the girl style like the other Kabuki shirt you have? I could also make them in regular Tee style for guys.
If I get a few more requests for it, I'll go ahead and draw one up. and get it printed on shirts.
And thanks for the great feedback about the issue! |
YES! please make the shirt! i would get either tank version or girl style... actually, probably both! one to sleep in... one to wear out
i absolutely love the animal clinic logo!! tee-hee... so cute!
i have nothing to barter with though... other than $$ & mix-discs  _________________ "the picture you see is no portrait of me it's too real to be shown to someone i don't know" |

are you a girl? i thought you were a dood... not that there's anything wrong w/ guys wearing cute tank tops or anything... i just thought they didn't... do... that... ? |
usually only if they're really drunk, on a dare, or when their girlfriend's not around
I'm just guessing, by the way |
i like girls clothes better most of the time. if i can fit in it that is. but yeah, i will purchase a ladys tee even if the sleeves may be too small for my arms if the teeshirt is nice enough. tank tops, well, only for fun. and not when the lady isnt around, but specifically when she is... and we are alone, and she wont tell anyone. yeah. .... I AM COMFORTABLE. but i would prefer the shirt in a tee. _________________

Yeah, that was my situation, too, so I don't know whether the store had sold out of #2 or hadn't ordered any for the shelves. They also didn't have two other new comics I was looking for. I'm planning to ask them about it next time I'm in there. |

I saw your recent "nipple" post on my Kabuki board
But when I went back to answer it, it was gone.
Cool that you got that old book with previews of future Kabuki stuff. There is a Bendis Goldfish in there too. |

I'm glad you are looking forward to reading the story eventually.
But I should warn you that the trade is a minimum of 2-3 years away.
The Alchemy storyline looks to be around 10-12 issues long.
Bi-monthly. |

It occurs to me to ask if the letters collumn in Kabuki is helpful or enjoyable for readers.
Is it something you look forward to?
Or could you take it or leave it.
I've tried to provide ample space to present the many letters. And I try to use it as a place to answer questions, and discuss and show unique points of view from readers.
Do readers here read all of the letters collumn for this info? or not so much?
Also do you like the inclusion of 1993 the Brian Bendis Kabuki artwork? Should I keep including it? |

Crap. Thanks for the warning, but now is a time for vigilance. I know it'll be worth the wait. It has too. If you think about it, it'll make for a sweet summer. Alchemy trade and Spider-Man 3. Hmm, I just might explode.
I hope your sales are rocking on it, I just have to stop double dipping. (issues and trades of the same thing)

GO TO DALLAS!!!  |
I'm right on the verge of confirming my attendance in Dallas at the Wizard Texas show in November.
I'll decide over the weekend and probably have an answer by Monday.
I loved it last year when I signed at the Beckett booth. And they just asked me to sign at their booth again, so I'm leaning in that direction.
Anyone else going to Dallas? |

I usually read these for insights and information about the artists, and for recommendations. Just letters without responses or some sort of dialogue doesn't hold much interest for me. I also really like columns like Bendis's "No Life" section in Powers.
Quote: | Also do you like the inclusion of 1993 the Brian Bendis Kabuki artwork? Should I keep including it? |
Keep including it, but it seems a bit odd out of context--if these images are collected in the tpb, I think they'll look nicer together. Did he do any sequential art you can display? I think I'd rather see more of the Bendis Kabuki stuff at once, even if it meant leaving some out of other issues. |

I actually pre-ordered the first Caliber issue through previews after liking your work on Young Dracula and Happy the Clown so 10 years later I'm happy to still be reading Kabuki so of course I picked up the new issue.
POSSIBLE SPOILERS
I'm probably a litle late coming to this realization but I'm wondering that if Akemi is posibly a extention of Kabuki's psych then how much of the rest of the charachters and story are? |
