Hello ThoughtScape crew,
If you haven’t already, help us grow the follower count for the upcoming ThoughtScape Comics #1-#3 Kickstarter by heading to ThoughtScape2023.com and hitting the NOTIFY button. I’d love to reach 50 followers this week. Can we pull it off?
If you have already hit that button, thanks a ton. I want to make sure we knock this next launch out of the park, and a nice big number of folks following early will really help.
I also wanted to make a couple quick recommendations:
Check out Tenebrous Press, an indie horror prose/illustrated prose publisher, run in part by my friend (and fellow Portland Matt) Matt Blairstone. They just released CROM CRUACH by Valkyrie Loughcrewe, with a fantastic cover by Jonathan La Mantia, and they have been building an incredible catalog the last couple years: Check it out/buy here.
If you haven’t been reading Tom King and Greg Smallwood’s Human Target, grab the hardcover that collects the first six issues and comes out THIS WEEK (I think). Holy cow, this series is amazing. I re-read the entire run every time a new issue comes out so it’s all fresh in my old man brain. I haven’t done that since (checks notes) King and Mitch Gerads’ Mister Miracle. Anyway, this comic is an instant classic. Also see Smallwood’s threads on his art process (like this one), because they are incredible and insightful and you will learn a ton.
Three words: Copra Master Collection. Do. Not. Miss. It.
Maybe that was six words?
Three more words: Trust Tony Gilroy.
I was a bit underwhelmed by the first couple eps of Andor, but in the third episode everything came together and WOW is it all worth it. Chills. Highly recommend.Have a great week!
Matt
