UNLOCK CHRISTOPHER JONES!

Update #4 · May 16, 2012 · comment

Hello Backers and Future Potential Backers--

Our new stretch goal is adding more artwork to the book!

If we reach $5,000 we'll be able to add some artwork by Mr. Christopher Jones!

For those of you who don't know Mr. Jones, he's a professional comic book artist (currently working on DC's Young Justice title) as well as one of the co-founders of Minnesota's big geek convention CONvergence. Chris will be adding some artwork to my story about being a superhero called The Honey Bear.

If we reach $5,000 we'll also be able to add some illustrations by me! My almost entirely useless liberal arts degree is actually in visual art. I gave up drawing and painting to focus on performance when I realized how much I enjoyed making jokes about my artwork to a captive audience during class review sessions.

On JoCoCruiseCrazy 2, Marian Call set up an impromptu live drawing session. I drew many a Sea Monkey (the official name for attendees) and my interest has been rekindled. I would love to include some art in the book!

Again, many many thanks for your time, interest, and support!

With Sincerity of Doom,

Joseph

P.S.We're continuing to look into other stretch goal possibilities. If there's anything you think would compliment the project feel free to let us know your ideas!
