So what's new? Not much really. So far, its just the same old mundane working. Oblivion has been announced as being pushed back until December 5th. I hope we make it in time, but that's more of my cousin Ashley's problem to worry about.
On my commutes back and forth from work I think a lot about writing some more. Writing more comics that is. I have a couple ideas that float around in my head. One is my current dream story. It's a zombie story, I have a plan for it that I don't think has been done before. I find zombies interesting just because they are this unrelenting force that doesn't know when to stop unlike Vampires or Werewolves. I know none of these creatures exist, but still I find it somewhat fascinating, and a fun subject to try and write. I would elaborate on my ideas, but that would be spoiling it, wouldn't it? I won't tackle this, however, until I've become a better writer.
My other comic ideas are my Blaxploitation that will never happen, because there is such a small interest group in that genre. the last is Howdy Bloodsucker. I've already done one short comic with my friend Tubby Fleck Meat Dynamo. I reread it recently, and it makes no sense ad is convoluted. I've been thinking about rewriting this, start from scratch.
Howdy Bloodsucker is my racial satire comedic comic along the lines of say The Tick or Venture Bros. At least I'm trying to be clever and absurd in those ways. Howdy bloodsucker follows the exploits of an effeminate Romanian Vampire in Texas during the late 1800's. That's right, Vampire cowboy goodness. He goes on seeking to make a new life for himself and find people to satisfy his blood lust along with his Native American Man servant and his man servant's spirit animal.
The first issue I wrote was him running into a former goat farmer turned priest, named Padre Nachos Belle Grande, who vows revenge on Chupacabras for destorying killing his goats and ruining his family. The second was supposed to be him running into a Chinese railworker neamed Chow Fun. If you think their names are bad that's just the tip of the iceberg. So yeah I've been thinking about re-writing it and maybe drawing it myself. I'll do this in all the time I don't have.
