In Response To: Re: New Kabuki story! (Khaled Abou Alfa)

Good to hear from you...

: Am I waiting for a new Kabuki story? Sure. But I also
: acknowledge that these things take time. And it's not
: like David is sitting around thinking about it. He's
: probably researching and writing and tweaking and
: going back to the board and designing

Definitely doing a ton of this stuff!

: Still it seemed to me that Rick Mays was drawing faster
: when he was drawing for Wildstorm and Marvel than the
: Scarab story, very weird :).

True. But he only pencils those. He also inks Scarab which actually takes him more time than the pencilling does. He inks almost entirely with brush. And I think is one of the best inkers, besides being such a great penciller.

He doesn't ink on the other jobs, because pencilling is quciker for him and pays more than inking. It just makes better job/time sense for him. But on Scarab, I'm lucky that he cares enough about it to ink it himself. Scarab is more a labor of love for him.

: I've got one question however. When are we actually going
: to get the next comic that has David Mack art in it?

As soon as possible! I just finished like 25 painted covers for Alias. It was really fun to just focus on a single image artwork for a bit. I really needed it to get a fresh perspective. But now I'm aching to get in the groove of the visual storytelling. It is an all-consuming thing, but I'm defintely ready for it again. I'm in the middle of some layouts and designs. you know, a ton of that tweaking and tinkering. I decided not to solicit the book until I get ahead on it this time. Will definitely keep you updated on this board as soon as the date is set.

: And when is Parts of a hole going to be released as a
: hardcover from Marvel? Hell when's your painted 4
: issues going to be released in HC? I mean these are
: little treasures that should be given a nice format to
: showcase them properly .

Good point. I don't have any knowledge about that. I don't even know if there is any hardcover planned for those. You might try asking on a Marvel message board, or asking Joe himself. I'd love to see them both in Hardcover too.
