12/12/11 Christian Comic Books and Projects

CCAS Member Rene Brochu has been working on a very promising book "God's Warrior" for some time now. One of his covers is featured right now in the gallery. He kindly sent me another picture, a comic page from his future graphic novel of the series.

Wow! I love this page! It has the excitement and drama I remember from my childhood Marvel comics, and the art is great! Rene, let us know more about the project and your plans. Put me down for a couple of copies of the graphic novel, I don't want to miss it!

I did a review of Shan Koger's 'Lightning Prophetess' on Facebook that I'd like to repost here.

***(My LP review on Facebook)******
I'm the kind of guy that gets into other people's excitement for their projects. So I can kind of be 'fan boy gushy' instead of impartially critical. I need a T-Shirt: "I'm not Obsequious, just Excitable' ha ha! I really like a lot of my friend's 'Christian Comics'. In fact, they are -all- my 'favorite comic', for various reasons:) But I am going to show you the link to my -very- favorite Christian comic today. http://cyberlightcomics.com/lp/index.html Shan Koger's 'Lightning Prophetess' is a spiritual soap opera that is more than the sum of it's parts. I mean, you could say 'It's part anime, part super hero, part slice of life', but it's more than that, because the pieces all work together beautifully. This comic's art is a 'diamond in the rough', not totally polished, yet very pleasing, and always improving. Most importantly, this comic has -Story- and -Soul-! At times I've gotten teary, at others I've burst out laughing. And I want to marry Kat Porter. Wait, I shouldn't say that, makes me sound creepy, forget I said that:) Ha ha ha! Read "Lightning Prophetess", it's incredible!
***(Review Ends***
Shan's story has been running for years on the Cyberlight Christian comic site, but I've been backslidden for a few years and only caught up with it last week. It's even better than I remembered:)

A project I'm interested in is Vision Press's "Revelators". There is a teaser video at http://www.indiegogo.com/Revelators which is pretty exciting! My only problem is that I wish I could read the comics before deciding to donate to the project. But what I've seen so far is excellent looking, and I will support the project as much as I can. If you guys and girls have a moment, watch the video and see what you think?

Well, that's all for this week. Lots and lots of wonderful things going on, but I just got back and can't make a comprehensive list or anything. Sorry to those of you I missed. I would like to thank and recommend to you all CCAS member Rachel Schieferdecker, who does character design and writes stories. If you are looking for help, I can tell you she's a wonderful Sister in Christ to work with!
 
Be well and be blessed all!
