Issue 1 is available for purchase

After reworking a few pages, adjusting sizes, dpi's, and all that techno mumbo jumbo. I have finally succeeded in releasing the first issue of The Frozen Prophets.

It is available for purchase at the following link: Purchase Issue 1 Today

The price is $2.75

As I have stated on the mangas Facebook fan page, Issue 2 is coming along nicely. The art is definitely an upgrade, and you will be filled in a little more on the "big picture."

I will be posting some teaser pictures for Issue 2 later this weekend. You will be able to find them on the fan page, which you can get to by clicking Here. While your there, remember to become a fan.

A "Journal" Entry?

Stepping back from everything and taking a moment to see what is going on, I have to say how truly excited I am about this project. I don't expect to get rich, I don't expect to make a living (at least not yet), all I really hope for is a loyal fan base that continues to grow as we do.

So for all of you supporting me on this adventure, especially those of you who have to sit and listen to me talk about it when I'm not actually working on it =P. I want to extend a very heart felt Thank You (so heart felt there is some capital letters in it). I honestly may have given up on the who endeavor had it not been for people backing me up. I am by no means a success there are only a few people outside my own personal network that are aware of the project, however, bit by bit people are coming in. I certainly hope they stick around.

Chapter 1 has sub-par illustration and I am aware of that, my fallback for it was that I was working hard on learning to create the manga, using new software, and researching a means of publishing and promoting myself. It has been a long and arduous journey so far, but I believe there is a lot more road to travel down, and I for one am extremely excited.

Chapter 2 I want to give a promise of greatly improved art, better readability, and an overall more enjoyable experience. Then sometime around chapter 4 or 5 we can all sit back and laugh at the difference between the start and current issues.

There is a ton of story yet to come, and I can guarantee that whoever you are you will be able to connect to the characters on a personal level. They are not going to be carbon copies of everything else out there. As far as the story itself goes, it is going to be a mixture of some things you have seen a few times, seen a lot, and hopefully not seen at all. I am doing as much research as possible to ensure I am offering you a unique story with great characters, and an awesome adventure.

So please, spread the word, Chapter 1 will be available in less than a month, and Chapter 2 will be coming shortly after. If you are not sure how to get the word out or not sure where to send people I will post some links over on the right side of this page, The Frozen Prophets has a Facebook fanpage, is on Twitter, here, and my own personal facebook page, along with Deviantart.com.


And once again, a very HUGE THANK YOU for all my supporters!

So ya

I need to find something interesting to post about soon. Other than what I'm doing. And if you are wondering what I am doing. I am typing this post listening to music. I'm pretty bored and I'm giving my mind and hand a break from drawing for the rest of the night.

I have however been doing some extensive research on self-publishing and self promotion for comics/manga and all that. I am thinking of kind of rolling everything I have bookmarked and read and found into a huge snowball and putting it up as a tutorial/how-to guide thing. That way there would be yet one more place to find all the same information out there. :)

I am also thinking of doing to how-to's on how the actual making of a comic/manga is done. I'm talking about the hard to find information out there. I guess I better get busy huh? I would be talking about all the stuff that I couldn't find and kind of had to find out on my own sort of thing.

If anyone has any ideas or anything they would like to see that is somewhat related to all of this (what I'm doing) feel free to let me know. (all 20 of you =P ) Well, ok I'm gonna go troll some forums and see if I can find something new on the internet.

Chapter 1 complete

I have (as the title states) completed chapter of the ongoing series The Frozen Prophets. I have decided on self publishing as my means of printing. I will be selling copies at various websites I will post links as soon as I get my own copy to ensure its quality. It will be released in monthly installments for the time being. My work schedule will not allow for more.

I am excited to get started on chapter two, and already have about a fourth of it sketched out and ready for ink. I am going to take the holiday weekend to get as far ahead as I can since I will be returning to work on Monday.  This is an exciting moment for me, to see something that I made put in print. I only hope that others will enjoy what I am creating.
