Hey guys! Hawk and I have been working hard on the book in addition to our normal responsibilities, which is why posts from me have been scarce in the past few days. Right now I’m ironing out strip commentary, which is no small feat when you’ve got to write a paragraph for all of roughly 160 comics. It’s just a little of the extras we’ll be including in the first volume!

In the next few weeks we should also be ready to announce the finalized title and official cover art, so keep an eye out for that! I’ll take some photos of some of the documentation and files that Samantha Robertson over at Dark Horse has been mailing us so you can get an idea of the process, if that’s of interest to you!

Hope you guys are having a good week!

If you don’t mind posting the pictures, that would be great! Thank you so much for this.

I agree with Katherine, posting the pictures would be awesome and very inspiring for those of us who are manga artists to see what goes on behind pulling a book together.

Maybe you guys can put that info below your blogs like the (very quiet) Mac Talk?

I can’t wait for this book.
I hope some of Hawks sketches will be part of the
“extras”.

I’ve gotta know. Will it include Eve’s origin? I haven’t had the chance to get to the archives yet and I’d like to avoid doing so if I can get the dead-tree version.

Yup! Eve’s origin is an arc that’s included in Volume 1. :)

I will inquire! Ultimately it’s up to Dark Horse and whatever distribution they choose.
