Fallen Justice #6 is on the street!
That’s right folks, you read it right! Fallen Justice #6 is printing and should be delivered shortly, meaning there’s just one issue left of this limited series before we wrap it up!
In addition, we’re also very happy to announce the release of Fallen Justice #3 on the iPhone! The guys at Graphics Lab 2 worked their tails off to get the brand new reader 2.0 in place for this release, and we’re so pleased with it we can’t wait for folks to try it out!
Keep it locked in to Red Handed as we bring Fallen Justice to a close next month with the release of the final, double sized blow out issue!
KRAKOW!
That time has come folks. Fallen Justice is now on the iPhone! In partnership with Graphics Lab 2 we’re proud to be able to bring you the entire Fallen Justice series on the iPhone, offering the first issue for free! And that’s not all! For a limited time issue #2 will also be free, as we honor the promotion we ran during Comic Con. To check it out, click the image below!
We’ve been live for about 24 hours now and we’re already getting some great reviews!

I actually read the paper version of the comic book and when given the opportunity to see how it looked on the iPhone, I jumped at it. The book is great, approaching the super hero genre from a different perspective…the basic idea is you’re the world’s more powerful superhero and you find out you just have a few months to live…what do you do? It’s strong writing, characters, and vibrant art work very well on the iPhone, so check it out!

This is the first graphic novel I’ve read on the iPhone. I really enjoyed it. The intense graphics were eye popping. It was a new experience for me on the iP. I want more of this!
Exciting! So check it out, would ya? It’s free to download the first issue, so you’ve got nothing to lose!
Whew! If you get the chance go by and check out the GL2 website! They’ve got a really great looking Fallen Justice roll out skin up, and some fun stuff, including the word of the day, highlighting some of the bigger and more interesting sound FX from the series. Ever wondered just what those BAM and POW sounds really mean? Well check them out as they rotate to find out! Fun stuff, and a great way to keep this promotion rolling along!
In keeping with that, I have to give a HUGE shout out to Kyle Hurlbut, Erik Hendrix, and David Reyes as well as the rest of the GraphicsLab 2 team! These guys put in a ridiculous amount of hours getting the books transferred over into iPhone format and tuning things up so folks could get this product. It is beyond a doubt that this would have never happened without their hard work, dedication, and belief in the work. Well done gentlemen! Well done indeed!
And check out this sweet video we had made up for the release! It will give you a short preview of what the app looks like.
So there you go folks! Check out those iPhone comics and tell your friends!!
How about some more!
That’s right! Since I posted the iPhone love yesterday I’ve received some more graphics related to that so I figured I’d share those as well.
First up we’ve got the actual displays showing the covers of the first two issues as they will appear to users who download them! Kinda WAY cool there! And again, they’ll be free for download during the SDCC and then 99cents per download thereafter. I’d like to think that our comics are at LEAST worth the same as several million songs out there, so get over there and bring those puppies down and check em out! I’ll be adding a direct link to the download in the iTunes store as soon as they go live, so keep checking back and I’ll do my very best to make it easy on ya.
That’s just…hot.
Next up is the T shirt GraphicsLab 2 guru Kyle Hurlbut commissioned for the San Diego Comic Con so that his minions can go forth and spread the news about Fallen Justice with impunity! They’ll be out and about distributing stickers and generally getting the word out there on the downloads and the story, so if you see one say “Hey I know that comic!”
Cool!
In other fun news, we’ve got us a new addition! That’s right coming right on the heels of Lisa Moore joining the studio, we’d like to welcome Michael Kellar to the fold! Michael and I go back a couple of years to Small Press Idol days, where we were both on the Sky Pirates of Valendor team together. Michael’s an accomplished inker who is growing an already impressive resume by leaps and bounds. To start with he’ll be doing some fill in work as needed on various things that come across the board, and then he’ll be taking over inks on at least one title we have planned for the very near future.
Speaking of that, at least a little bit, Red Handed Studios is looking at producing original content for the iPhone, meaning rather than undertaking the time consuming effort of converting regular comics into iPhone format, we’ve decided to turn out a comic made originally FOR the iPhone, and as such we’re in pre-production on that project. What does that mean for the fans? Double the fun baby! You’ll get the chance to see us shine on the iPhone first, and then we’ll make that available in print format as well for those without iPhone or who prefer the print version. It’s going to be a bold experiment, wtih ups and downs I’m sure, but at the end of the day I think on that’s well worth the effort.
Oh! And before I forget, remember yesterday when I mentioned that mad cool cover to Dynagirl #1? Well I got the pencilled version up and ready for you folks to check out over on the newly added Dynagirl page. I dare you to tell me that cover doesn’t kick all kinds of ass! And we’re just getting started.
If you have the time, look around the site a bit. I’ve added pages for Totem and Seppuku Blues, Caveguys, and Dynagirl, as well as updating graphics on the gallery page and a couple of other minor tweaks. Wearing the website guy hat can sometimes be rough, but I generally try to stay on top of things when given half a chance!
So that’s what’s shaking today! More to come as I get it people! Till then, enjoy!
