Updating again!

February 4, 2009 · Posted in Updates 

Yesterday I mentioned we might be expanding here at Red Handed Studios. Today I can tell you it’s not a maybe, it’s a fact. Red Handed Studios now has a couple of new members with some more possibles on the horizon as well! What’s even more exciting about all this is we’ve already started production on a brand new book! It’s happening quickly, which is awesome actually. We seem to have caught lightning in a bottle with this and as I make announcements in the coming days you’re gonna see exactly what I’m talking about! We should have some concept art for you to drool over shortly!

Also on tap is the Dynagirl series! I’m wrapping up writing chores on issue 8 this week, meaning there’s fully 8 issues worth of scripts in the can and ready to rock! After issue 8, I’m taking a break from writing for at least two issues while I turn the reins over to a couple of good friends for a romp in the sandbox! Issue #9 will be written by Chuck Kennedy, and he may well stretch that to issue #10 depending on how things go. Issue’s 11 and 12 are still tentative at this point, meaning we haven’t decided who is picking up the writing as of yet. There are a few people in line so rest assured we’ll get that nailed down. After issue 12 I’ll be back in the driver’s seat leading us into all new and crazy adventures of our favorite superchick. Believe me when I tell you we’ve got TONS of story left to tell. Dynagirl will be around for quite some time no worries.

The ongoing outrage over the whole Diamond crushing Indy books yet again seems to be raging on unabated across the internet. It makes me laugh. I don’t see the point in even paying attention honestly. Diamond is great but they’re not interested in Indy books, they’ve never been interested in Indy and they aren’t likely to get interested any time soon. So why waste time and energy on worrying about it? There are too many other ways to get the books out to the fans without having to mess with Diamond’s fascist policies and anti Indy attitude. I’ve always been the type to worry about what I can change rather than piss and moan about things I have no control over, and this is a huge example of that. Would it be cool if Diamond picked us up? I guess. But it would be more hassle than it’s worth really. They don’t sell the books for you. They don’t win you fans. They just ship the book. Seems like a lot of trouble to pay them half my profits for shipping when I could do the shipping myself and save a ton of money. So yeah, no thanks.

So hang in there. More tomorrow if things continue to materialize on this expansion front. I might just drop some names!
