Dream Life pg 17 and some rapture news
Inking some Dream Life, and other things. The winter hibernation urge has set in, Pigging out on Italian Corn Bread and Coffee and trying to be productive.
If your thinking about affordable Christmas gifts, may i suggest a proven treat?
Modern Post Biblical adventure stories always thrill; Therefore Repent! by Jim Monroe and myself has earned itself small hills of praise for being and engaging page turner.
And why am i talking up my last grafic novel? Is it that i might want to suggest that you get that special comics freindly friend a copy of our book for Christmas?
Yep, might be. I mean, it's a post rapture grafic novel, what more slightly blasphemous gift could you give your hip and culturally savvy sweet someone?
In Canada and at the cut rate of $10 here on NMK, from Amazon [$11.24 & eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping on orders over $25]or IDW, or your local comic shop! Everyone likes getting puppies, this one talks and you don't have to worry about potty training :)
Hah! i should have been a copy writer! har! i kill myself.
OK. I just watched How To Lose Friends And Alienate People and now I'm channeling the main character! He he!
But seriously; it's also because i wanted an excuse to post a link here too for the big news!
If your one of the many who've asked me if there will be a sequel to Therefore Repent, and aren't already way ahead of me because you regular the NMK blog, then put your eye's on this sweetness!
The New Post-Rapture Graphic Novel
I'm [Jim Munroe] 2/3rds (AKA 66.6%) of the way through writing the graphic novel follow-up to Therefore Repent! so I thought I'd post some of the amazing sample pages by the new artist, Shannon Gerard.
I don't want to give away too many details, but it's set in Detroit, involves one of the Four Horsemen, and the first 22 pages should be debuting at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival in May 2009. A: Yes there will be and no i won't be drawing it but don't you worry none, it's in very good hands. :D Go see for yourself, check out the sample pages they posted.

Attending Book Festivals in Gatineau & Windsor
Hey, how was the Turkey?....
So later this month I'll be on the road again, seems like i've been doing that a lot, and i won't be even as much as half what i had planed to in the spring! Man, doing support touring for a book is crazy, or maybe I'm getting old. - Nawwwww......
From the 23rd to the 26th of October, I'll be hanging around the Canadian Museum of Civilization - O_o
...attending the
9th Rendez-vous
international
de la BD
de Gatineau!
I'll be joined there by 9 other creators, some of who's stuff is eye popping! ; Philippe Aymond, Johanna, Daniel Bosshart, Thierry Coppee, Delaf & Dubuc, Michel Falardeau, Sandra Breault, and Craig A. Taillefer, who i have to thank for getting invited!
The Program and other details are here, in french, and posted here on Sequential in English.
AUTOGRAPH SESSIONS & APPEARANCES
Thu 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm Fri 11:00 am to 12:30 pm & 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm Sat 10:00 am to 11:00 am & 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm Sun 11:30 am to 1:30 pm & 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm
They have me booked for something called 'Masters at Work' 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Thursday.
And from 11 to 11:30 am for 'Live illustration with Salgood Sam' on Saturday. Basically in both cases it looks like they want me to draw live in front of people! Going to be needing the antiperspirants there. All of that's @ the main venue, The Canadian Museum of Civilization - Level 2 / Foyer of the Museaum's Theatre [100 Laurier Street]
Looking forward to this. Hope the live show goes well, and if nothing else, getting to spend whatever spare time i have checking out the Museum will be cool!
After that i get on a train - have a few days to kill in Toronto - then I'm booked to attend...
[across the river from Detroit]
Where I'll be spending some time with an old buddy of mine, George Rizok, one of the lifers' at Rogues Gallery and resident loon on The Comic Book Syndicate [YouTube page].
Saturday at 1pm till 3pm I'll be on a panel discussion:
It's a Bird, it's a Plane, it's a Book!
....ok, corny name i know, but i promise to do my part to make sure it's interesting! We'll be in the Studio Room, with Mary-Lou Gelissen, Tony Gray, & George!
I'll also be available for signings and stuff, in the main space of the book festival with the other authors, and Friday I'll be at the Rogues Gallery comic shop as well from 6pm on.
Going to bring some recent art with me, which I'll be selling maybe but probably not on sight, at least not in Gatineau anyway - but you'll be able to look at it and arrange for something if you seem something you like.
Believe books at both events will be supplied, for sure Therefore Repent! will be on hand, and I'll be making up a batch of RevolveR One's for the occasion, maybe a little something else too, just for the trip!
Also, Expozine has JUST been announced, going to go over to the site now and register, so see you THERE too!Labels: appearances, book fairs, comic conventions, Expozine, Gatineau, News, revolver, Therefore Repent
