Thanks everyone for making a pledge to help us out with publishing Son Chasers. We've faced the reality that we are not going to meet our goals for funding. We want to thank you for believing that the project was cool enough to plunk down your cash to help get it going.

Buck, Matt and I and everyone at Earthbound Comics will continue to publish comics available through www.indyplanet.com. Check us out on the web at www.earthboundcomics.com or our fan page on facebook for the latest announcements. We may not be taking Son Chasers to the next level in distribution, but we still will grow and put out new and original comics, starting with over 12 more books over the next six months!

Thanks for your support and we hope to see you at a convention or chat it up online!

Here we are heading into action. Henry Hitler shows us what he does best by taking out bad guys and talking about Greek myth.

______________________________________________________

PAGE THREE – (3 panels)

Panel 1 – HENRY has his knife to the throat of one of the men in the photo.

HENRY’S BOX - CUT!

Panel 2 – HENRY’s hand clicks a detonator as the windows of a military instillation explodes outward.

HENRY’S BOX - BURN!

Panel 3 - HENRY steps inside the burning building. He holds a pistol in one hand and samurai sword in the other.

HENRY’S BOX - CAUTERIZE!

Page 2 is our first glimpse into the world and the crusade of Henry Hitler. Martin’s art really added a gritty realism to the page.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
PAGE TWO (4 panels)

Panel 1 – A line map of Africa with a dot in Northern Congo.

Box - Northern Zaire, 09 October, 1995, 0400 hours

Panel 2 – We see the back of HENRY as he sits at a small, crude desk in a rundown room. The wall in front of him is covered in newspaper clippings and surveillance photos. Five of them are of men in military garb. HENRY is surrounded by weapons in all levels of repair and disarray.

HENRY’S BOX (make it look a little different)-
Five hours ago the UN Security Council voted to “wait and see” on a motion to aid this region and this people. And there’s no way that the CIA stooge, Mobuto is going to lift a finger.

Panel 3 – a close up on the five photos of different African military men - hanging on the wall.

HENRY’S BOX - It’s understandable, the guerrilla military here is like the mythical Hydra. Cut off its head and two will rise in its place.

Panel 4 – Back to the shot from Panel 1, but in this he cocks a pistol.

HENRY’S BOX - Yet, as we learned from hero Hercules, there is only one way to destroy a beast such as this…

To give everyone a little insight into the process here at Earthbound Comics, I (Buck) thought I would post some script pages for Son Chasers and show you the finished page.

Today, we’ll start with page 1.  We knew that we could not avoid showing the infamous father of Henry Hitler and we liked the idea of a conspiracy.  How could these two people (who history tells us were married around 40 hours before committing suicide ) actually have a baby?  Here we see how and why.

Page One (4 panels)

Panel 1 - We open on a bed.  A shear cotton curtain separates us from the two bodies intertwined in the sheets.  This is EVA and HITLER.

Box:               30 April 1945 0912 hours (The day Hitler and Eva commit suicide).

Panel 2 – EVA sits on the edge of the bed wrapped only in the sheet, her arm across her stomach in a symbolic gesture, though we see no baby bump.  HITLER stands in his pants and t-shirt at a dresser with a mirror.  EVA looks distraught.

HITLER -           You must go, Darling.  It’s the only way.

EVA -              But, only yesterday we were wed…and the… the…

Panel 3 – Eva bolts from the room in tears. HITLER watches her go as he buttons the cufflinks of his uniform.

HITLER (Whisper) - You must keep my heir safe.

Panel 4 - EVA runs into the hall with the sheet wrapped around her body.  In the hall she bumps into a woman dressed in an SS uniform.  The woman could be her twin.

EVA – Oh… (slightly taken aback) forgive me!

EVA II – My pardon, Fräulein Braun.
