Title: Breakneck Issue 1
Post by: chilipenguin on 09 November, 2010, 10:14:06 PM
Hey,

Hope this is the right place to post (mods, feel free to move it if not) but the first issue of a comic I have been lettering is now on sale as an eBook. Breakneck, a rather different superhero tale, is available via this link:

Or via my blog (in my sig) for the princely sum of $1.99.

Good news for anyone that's interested. Breakneck will be getting a physical release in the New Year. Starting in January, issues 2 and 3 will be out in March and May respectively. More details as I get them.

If anyone is interested, the second issue of Breakneck should be out on Wowio in the next week or so (Christmas permitting). Why not download a copy of issue 1 now to get up to speed?

And here is the order code: JAN111349. I've got to be honest when I say that I'm not entirely sure how you go about ordering from Diamond in the UK, but if your local store is supplied by them you should be cool to supply this code...

Tardy to the party? Issues 1 & 2 are still available too! Get in on the action now before the inevitable movie* hits cinemas and you're left looking like a fool! A fool!


*No, really. The movie is a very real possibility. You will look like a fool. A fool!

I've been away from the boards for a while, so I thought I should do a little housekeeping in this thread.

Issue 1 of Breakneck has been printed and is heading to comic stores around the US as we speak. My copies are currently winging their way across the Atlantic. I can't wait to see them.

Issue 2 is now accepting pre-orders. If you live in the US, or a Diamond supplied store, use order code MAR111276. We received an amazing number of preorders for issue 1, so please help us build on that with your support.

Issue 3 has been released digitally and will receive a physical release in due course (pre-orders in May), issue 4 is finished and just waiting to be listed and we have scripts ready to go up to issue 7. I can't release any details, but the story is full of twists and turns and is entertaining from start to finish.

If you want to get hold of a digital copy of Breakneck issue 1-3, just follow this link: http://www.wowio.com/215ink?txtSearch=&cbBookGroup=693A&cbBrowse=

Aside from all of that, Hollywood interest in this is still on the table. We have interest from a producer who is putting certain wheels in motion. It's far, far too early to say whether or not it will come to anything, but at this stage it's looking promising.

Anyway, why not at least have a look at the preview pages on Wowio. You like it? You buy it...

Glad you liked it! Mark Bertolini, the writer, is a bloody machine. I think he's got something like 25 projects on the go at the moment and still is able to come up with a great universe for these characters to run around in.
