Tell me more you ask?
Right, so I mentioned the Skateboard Heroes recently and I’m already getting questions. Actually, I don’t think I gave the actual title, but I’ve been talking about it so much offline that a lot of folks knew exactly what it is. And yes, as I said, it is a comic book based on photography? What does that mean? Essentially, I take photographs of various actors and then process through Photoshop and Lay it all out in Illustrator so it looks like a “real” comic book.
Basically, when I needed a construction worker in the story I found an almost talented actor (actually it was me) to wear a hard hat and toolbelt. If I need a nurse and you have a nurses uniform, you could be my next star.
So, far, the response to my first draft half issue story has been extremely positive. Comic retailers, readers and semi-pro artists have all embraced it pretty enthusiastically. With a little tweaking, the first few pages will be posted on a new Website (Pope Street affiliated) for your enjoyment.
