A new review has surfaced! The Nerdiest-Kids review the God Machine Preview, Titanium Rain [1&2], and Robotika[3&4]~!

So i’ve been getting a few reports that some people’s comic stores are receiving THE GOD MACHINE next week on the original release day of the 28th. Other stores received the book on it’s early release on the 21st. I can’t figure out what’s up with that, but a little patience my friends in receiving it!
Speaking of which, I heard one report that DCBS.com sending out one person’s order of THE GOD MACHINE.
Also! tfaw.com SOLD OUT of The God Machine. Wooo! They’ll reorder the book but it will take about 2 weeks for them to get it back in. Luckily I found 2 other sites who are offering The God Machine as well.*
*Please note I’m not connected to these places online, I merely found them for you.
Also, It’s beautiful! <3

Thanks to those of you who have told me you have received the book and the beautiful comments! Keep them coming please!

THE GOD MACHINE is out TODAY!!! YES! After waiting… i dunno how long, it came out a WEEK early!
Go forth! Go get it at a comic shop! [or order it.]
About those who ordered from DCBS: I’d check with them when they ship things. You may have to wait a little bit to receive your copy. [I know! I'm sorry. :( ]
Don’t forget release party at Stardust and signings next week!

Confused? New? Forget about everything you once read?
But you might be asking, “Chan, why is everything in pencil and written like a weirdo?”
Glad you asked!
Mission Statement Time!
“The Rough Cut Series is meant to be a preview/web comic of my comic series, "The God Machine." It’s taking the original scripts and draft pages, and translating them to pencil only comic pages. There are no inks, formal fonts, or even blacked in areas. The idea behind this is to get you into the series before it comes out to print. Now when the comic goes to print media, you’ll see the art work polished, inked, proper lettering, extra jokes, re-writes of the script, sometimes re-ordered panel layout, totally new pages, and bonus material. That way if you really like the project, you won’t feel gypped that you’d be buying content that’s already free online. Think of this as a preview, and a glimpse into the process in how I make comics.
The God Machine is published by Archaia.
The first issue comes out Oct. 28th 2009.”
That’s it! Welcome back~!

p.s. Eventually I try to set up a Comic Press thing on my web site, but currently I don’t have the time for that. So DA will have to do for now. I don’t feel like uploading to Comic Space anymore. :(

Awakening Graphic Novel
So, the book is out – now what? Now, oh loyal readers, we need to keep the momentum going. Reviews and interviews are abound but now we need to show comic shops that there’s good reason for them to carry the book in their stores! Below is an open letter to comic retailers which I emailed out to all the shop contacts I could gather online. What we need YOU to do is repost this on blogs and message boards, Twitter a link, send up a smoke signal – get this info to your local shop to help them sell the book. That doesn’t mean you should go in and ask for ten copies of the book to be ordered, that’s not what this is about. This is about spreading the word about the book and giving retailers the ammunition they need to confidently recommend and sell the book to their customers.
Let’s do this thing! Zombie Noir for everybody! Tweet and repost pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaase!
Dragon*con, Atlanta GA. Sept. 4-7th 2009.

Come out, say hello!!
