Not so Marvel-ous...

I'm sure a lot of comic fans have already heard the grim news. Marvel comics plans on raising the price of their single issues from $2.99 (already nothing to sneeze at) to $3.99. (It's not on all their issues yet but if it's successful don't be surprised if you see their full line go up in price.) Now let me put this into perspective for you. I charge $4.00 an issue for 22 page comics (technically 24 but there's 2 pages of ads) and I don't print anywhere near the number that bigwigs like Marvel are putting out.

And let's face it. We're far from in a golden age of writing and art with the big two. Marvel and DC have been putting out mediocre product for a very long time with a few glaring exceptions (the recent Brian Azzarello Joker graphic novel springs to mind). And why should folks pay an extra buck when they can plunk down $2.99 for amazing comics like Hellboy, The Goon, The Walking Dead, Invincible, Fear Agent, etc.?!? And most folks don't mind paying a little more for a smaller press book either. I know IDW has been charging $3.99 for some time. But it's definitely not the same tripe that Marvel is putting out. I'm sorry. And I sure as shit don't believe in having to buy twenty plus titles a month to keep up with a storyline (I'm looking at you Civil War and Secret Invasion).

Perhaps it's just time for some of us comic geeks to let go. Hell, I haven't been able to afford to buy individual issues since the summer and I was only buying 3 titles a month. But I know guys who easily drop $200 a month on comics. And you DC fanboys can bet your asses if Marvel fans keep buying DC will quickly follow suit. The best way to fix all this? Don't buy Marvel's $3.99 titles. Vote with your wallet folks.

Zombies and Monsters, Oh My!

Hey guys,

Back in November I did an interview with Tom Waters of Monsters of Verse podcast. You can listen to it on Think Twice Radios website or download it right to your computer from here.



I'm featured in Episode VII. The whole podcast is hilarious but if you want to skip to my bit I start at 10:43.

Also featured in the interview are Zombie Ink friends John Kindelan and Terry Kimmel. So head on over and check it out.

The Red Eye Busted

Hey guys,

I'm very excited to announce that Zombie Ink Comics is working in conjunction with mask-maker and sculptor extraordinaire Matt Patterson to bring you guys Red Eye busts.

They're going to be roughly 6" tall very similar to the Bowen busts. The bust was designed by yours truly and will be sculpted by the good Mr. Patterson! Well, that should be enough to get you folks salivating. More info to come very very soon!
