Hi folks, first and foremost: Jack Hammer: Political Science was been nominated for "Best Rookie Title" in the Project FanBoy Awards!  It's great to be nominated, of course, but that's just the first step.

Please go to http://awards.projectfanboy.com/?pageid=pfaabout and cast your vote. There are a bunch of great books, including some of my personal favorites, so I really need your help to put Jack Hammer in the running.

As they said on Reasonably Priced Comics website every vote counts, and we're counting on yours.

In other news, there's been a bunch of reviews of both Jack Hammer #1 and Reasonably Priced Comics lately.

Cosmic Book News's Byron Brewer, who reviewed Jack Hammer back in October, reviewed RPC #1. He seemed to really like Voyaga! Check out what he said here http://comics.cosmicbooknews.com/content/review-reasonably-priced-comics-1

Geoff Arbuckle over at A Comic Book Blog reviewed Jack Hammer, as well. He called likened to The Watchmen and Chinatown! High praise indeed! See what he had to say for yourself http://acomicbookblog.com/comic-book-reviews/jack-hammer-political-science-1-review/

And finally, but not least, Geoff also reviewed Reasonably Priced Comics #1. He gave glowing reviews to all three features and, here my writer's heart swells with pride, he called Voyaga "an instant classic" and a wonderful tribue to the Silver Age of comics. Thanks, Geoff! It really means a lot. You can read Jeff's review here http://acomicbookblog.com/comic-book-reviews/reasonably-priced-comics-1-review/

And, if you haven't already, you can pick up a copy of Reasonably Priced Comics #1 (or Jack Hammer #1, if you're late to the party!) over in RPC's store http://www.reasonablypricedcomics.com/store.html RPC#1 is only $2.50 print copy or $0.99 digital download. Hey, they live up to the "reasonably pric
 
 
Kitty's Pryde, who reviewed Jack Hammer a few weeks back, posted a review of Reasonably Priced Comics #1 (which you'll recall contains the first installment of my Voyaga series) today. Go read it, if you haven't already. http://www.kittyspryde.com/?p=5807

Also, and I can't believe I forgot to post this, Reasonably Priced Comics #1 is now available on both DriveThruComics (in digital format) and IndyPlanet (in print). It'll also be available at select comic book shops on December 22nd.

The second issue of Reasonably Priced Comics is scheduled for release this spring and includes the second issue of Voyaga in addition to a second science fiction short-story from the British team of Alex De-Gruchy and Richard Durham and a slice-of-life feature from my friends Mike Nicols and Silvina Rinaldi (whom you'll note drew the story "Laces" in RPC#1 when you buy your copy, hint hint).

Before that's out, though, Jack Hammer: Political Science should be out the last week in January. Click here for a sneak preview of that issue's cover. Ionic has outdone himself again, you'll agree.

More to come, but in the meantime please let me know what you think of Voyaga. I really want to know! And remember, we're still collecting letters for the letters page in Jack Hammer #2.
 
 
The first (advanced) review of Reasonably Priced Comics #1 was published today which, as I hope everyone remembers, includes the first installment of my new sci-fi series "Voyaga."

You can read it in its entirety at Project Fanboy

The "money quote" as it were:
"Voyaga is scheduled to be a four-part adventure, and I would love to see it go even further than that...the story hooked me in and the art was flat out gorgeous."

Thanks for the kind words! It's appreciated.

RPC#1 is officially out December 22nd in stores, and it'll be available December 15th on DriveThruComics.com.
