| I've been a graphic designer, letterer and font creator for Comicraft since 1992. Current projects include ELEPHANTMEN, ASTRO CITY, hardcovers for Marvel, and lots of logos and fonts. Now I'm working on a script for my own comic book series. Here's the pitch: Suburban 14 year-old Charley loves his cellphone, video games and the internet. But technology isn't just his entertainment -- everything he wants and needs, from food to clothing to transportation, is provided by friendly giant robots. School's out, and Charley's looking forward to a few months of freedom. But with the economy crashing, both his parents are forced to work double overtime just to keep their jobs. So they send him to stay on his estranged grandfather's farm for the summer. Not only is there no cell phone or internet -- forcing Charley to go cold turkey from his tech -- the little town somehow manages to get by without any robot assistance whatsoever. And the people there raise some serious objections when Charley inadvertently starts attracting robots into it... And I'm proud to announce that the artist will be... Marley Zarcone, aka shortfury ! She's working on sketches as I type, and I can't wait to see 'em. I'll post stuff here as it develops, so check back often, and let me know what you think. JG |
From this point on, I dream of the day when that font replaces Comic Sans and is revered world wide as the new hotness. I know for certain it'll likely replace WildAndCrazy as my font of choice...
