Comics is about tracking changes from one moment to the next. You see two different images side by side, and you are seeing two different moments in time. The change happens in between.

So that’s what we are getting here. You look one minute and it is one thing, and then it is another.

Blah, blah, b;ah, long story short. We here at MONOLITH are proud to announce our latest addition. He is an artist from Memphis named Matt Bowers. His stuff is high-energy and fun, but also very technical.

We’re working with Matt to get something together for the NYC con. Matt and I are re-tooling a Rapid City side story that Micah, Jason, and I had started to put together a few months ago. So, if nothing else, this book is sure to have our most extensive credits page to date. It is really a fun challenge to make this story work with a new artist. Going over the whole thing again, but seeing it fresh, really shows me what works and what does not. Hopefully, those of you who stop by to see us in New York will agree with the decisions we end up making.

And here are some of the roughs we are working with.

Ok so a lot has changed over the past 3 months since Wizard World Chicago. We had planned (still do) to do an introductory book to the Rapid City series, but recently decided to put it on the back burner. What we have decided to do is just focus on getting the series started and in your hands. Don’t worry we still plan to give the discount to those who were gracious enough to buy one of our “Teaser Ashcans”, more details on that to come.

And so it begins…

Enjoy.

Josh wasn’t happy with Page 4 (and frankly, neither was I), so he asked me to redo it. So here is my thumbnail break down for Page 4 ‘Reloaded’. For the most part this is ready to be penciled. Might make a slight change here or there, nothing major.

Enjoy.
