You may have seen it at the summer cons, or on the SRG website before, as he debuted issue number 1 last year to much success. I've since joined in with him on the book, and made Zombie Tramp the first book in part of my SR Distro model, where creator published books are offered via myself directly at cons and online, to help increase sales on self published gems like Dan's. And now we've just released the second issue of the three book series, so take a look at the book and order some online, or watch for them from me at the shows!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's very much in keeping with what I publish, and something you'll dig if you like cute girls, zombies, blood or violence in your comics...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ZOMBIE TRAMP Issue 2 of 3&lt;br /&gt;24 PAGES (of story)&lt;br /&gt;FULL (three) COLOR&lt;br /&gt;Mature Readers&lt;br /&gt;$5.00&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find out what becomes of Janey now that she's &lt;strong&gt;zombified&lt;/strong&gt;, and in the hands of... &lt;strong&gt;The Zombie Queen!?!?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview1-799819.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview1-799819.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview2-723979.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview2-723979.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview3-746613.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZT2preview3-746613.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Available now from SR DISTRO in the &lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/store.html"&gt;SRG store&lt;/a&gt; or directly at conventions (see schedule on right sidebar)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/SRGraphics_distro-787848.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Offering the best in creator pub'd comics!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11888420-5049388933214807976?l=www.superrealgraphics.com%2Fblog.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11888420/5049388933214807976/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11888420&amp;postID=5049388933214807976' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11888420/posts/default/5049388933214807976'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11888420/posts/default/5049388933214807976'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.superrealgraphics.com/2010/03/zombie-tramp-bites-back.html' title='Zombie Tramp bites back!'/><author><name>Jason Martin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12856273661161699794</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='00225642916014144433'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11888420.post-3345349850804657297</id><published>2010-03-01T09:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-03-04T12:49:18.736-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Super Real graphic novel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Super Real Notes'/><title type='text'>SUPER REAL NOTES: Graphic Novel done!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/SRgn_inhand700-739074.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/SRgn_inhand700-738948.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay, production on the graphic novel (and it's 82 new pages) has been done for a couple weeks, BUT, the book has also been printed, AND delivered to Diamond. So that means, there's nothing (barring an act of god) to keep it from reaching store shelves within a couple weeks!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, it's DONE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What seems like longer than I can remember, has actually been a year long process, as the book was originally solicited for July 2009, which means I set it up with Diamond last March. Then, entering last summer, as the new content was clearly going to run twice as long as expected, I was forced to re solicit, for January. And, as you know, January has come and gone, and now indeed February. However, close to twelve months of sweat, stress, and fears later, I'm supremely relieved to have this book done. The Super Real graphic novel not only represents a good part of the last year of my life, but also a better chunk of this century, as I started creating the book around 2000 - forming a group super hero style concept, and beginning to rediscover my abandoned artistic abilities, and in earnest in 2003, when I put together a preview ash can and did my first comic convention, the 2003 San Diego Comic-Con.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A lot has happened, and changed since July of 2003. Comic-Con for instance, only had attendance of around 63,000 at the time, and only occupied about 3/4 of the con hall. Since then it's doubled and been capped in attendance, and has long burst at the facilities seems. The first preview night all those years ago, I met a producer from a studio who was keen to develop Super Real, and have since talked with a few other Hollywood types. The book I thought I'd put out bi-monthly later that year, didn't officially come out until almost 2 and a half years later, when Super Real was finally set up with Diamond. With it's first issue coming out in November of 2005, and each subsequent issue taking longer to release, until the fifth book, the second special issue, came out in January of 2008.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's right, five issues, the last of which was barely published in 2008, making it more than two years since the last appearance in comic shops! A one year hiatus for the series, followed by a one year production for the graphic novel (and new content/series conclusion)...&lt;br /&gt;Of course, November of last year saw a direct edition of the new sixth issue, and in a couple weeks, we'll see the final seventh issue released directly by me as well (both books available in print or digital).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So November 2005 to March 2010, almost five years for seven issues (or 230 pages, the equivalent to roughly 10 standard size comic issues). I could have never expected a production schedule like that back all those years ago, but irregardless, the story I set out tell, about a group of irresponsible 20-somethings, given special abilities that run wild, is what I ultimately accomplished. All while learning about this rapidly changing industry, polishing my craft, and keeping a part time job and pursuing a myriad of other creative efforts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those that have followed along all this time, you have my eternal gratitude, and for those that will discover Super Real now that it's reborn as a graphic novel, with 232 pages of story (again, 82 of which are brand new), slightly retouched dialogue, and colorized &lt;em&gt;VS the comic industry special&lt;/em&gt; pages, welcome!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll update as soon as possible with official street dates, but the book will most likely be in comic shops on 3/17, and available from me in person at Emerald City Comicon and via &lt;a href="http://superrealgraphics.com/page3.html"&gt;the website&lt;/a&gt;, starting 3/14.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those that have been waiting for preorders with the limited sketch plates, they will begin shipping in the next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a

Diamond Comic Distributors announced to comic shops that Diamond will not be shipping new comics for the last week of December. We challenge writers and artists to self publish new material for this week, and offer it to their local stores. We ask for retailers to take this as an opportunity to showcase local independent talent on the new release shelves. We encourage fans to break from their buying habits and try something new.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://superrealgraphics.com/SR6_cover_final_front_785.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px;" src="http://superrealgraphics.com/SR6_cover_final_front_785.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This is a great event and opportunity folks. Every week shops are buried in mainstream comics... Hey, don't get me wrong, there's lots of good stuff there, but with 10 X-Men titles, 5 Avengers, a dozen Bat books, a half dozen Green Lanterns, etc etc, independent comic book gems are often overlooked, or simply can't be brought home because folks have spent their cash on the regular stuff (not to mention, are increasingly not even being offered). Well, here's your chance to try something different!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZombieTramp1_cover_785-790219.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px;" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ZombieTramp1_cover_785-790219.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;If you've thought about picking up one of my books but haven't before, here's a week you could afford to give one a shot.&lt;br /&gt;From my own self published comic &lt;em&gt;Super Real&lt;/em&gt;, to books I've published for other creators like &lt;em&gt;Gnome&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Wolves of Odin&lt;/em&gt;, and &lt;em&gt;Zombie Tramp&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/SRGPresentsGnome.html"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/Gnome/Gnome_cover_wrap_final_sml.jpg" alt="WolvesCover" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/SRGPresentsWolvesofOdin.html"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/cover_final_wrap_sml-754497.jpg" alt="WolvesCover" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/PG09conbook_cover_front_785-772629.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px;" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/PG09conbook_cover_front_785-772623.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Or how about that super cool over-sized &lt;em&gt;Pulp Girls &lt;/em&gt;limited edition convention book that offers a look at my epic new project (while supplies last)?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's plenty to choose from, and you can get them all from me via my websites:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/store.html"&gt;SR Graphics&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://superrealgraphics.com/page3.html"&gt;Super Real&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pulpgirlsblog.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pulp Girls&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or even from &lt;a href="http://www.tfaw.com/Companies/super+real+graphics"&gt;TFAW.com&lt;/a&gt; at 10% (or in person if you're in the Portland, OR area) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe there's something else you've had your eye on. &lt;br /&gt;Well, get out there and try some indy comics!&lt;br /&gt;And hey, from my own personal experience, if you already dig a bunch of indy stuff, there's never enough money or time to try all the ones you'd like... so go for it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Support independent comics, and creators, who do this for the love and passion of comics and art!!!

KICK ASS, the Matthew (Layer Cake, Stardust) Vaughn adaptation of the still ongoing Mark Millar/John Romita JR comic series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love me some Millar comics, and Wanted was huge, even though it was a mostly suck adaptation of the comic (changing super villains to assassins with a loom of fate?!?! plastique packing rats?!?), but Kick Ass seems to be shaping up far better, and

first 8 pages which have been &lt;a href="http://superrealgraphics.com/page2_ish6_preview.html"&gt;previewed on the website&lt;/a&gt; and around the web, I thought I'd share some art from key pages of

As you may know, the GN was solicited for July via Diamond distribution and comic shops, then rescheduled to September, which came and went almost a month ago... with no GN, or special issue released.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/PreviewsNov-730847.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 154px; height: 200px;" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/PreviewsNov-730812.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Well, turns out the production ran long. In addition to retouching the existing material, and coloring the black and white special, production of the new content, the final issue special that completes the first story arc, and closes out the GN, that was planned as 48 pages, shaped up to be closer to 80 pages. So, being unable to complete that in time for the September schedule with Diamond, I opted to resolicit the GN, not wanting to rush the new pages, or leave them out of the book altogether. The new schedule has the GN being offered to comic shops for this January via the new November &lt;strong&gt;Previews catalog&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you originally ordered a copy via your comic shop, please be sure they reorder the book from the new Previews catalog. The book is listed in the comics and graphic novels section, page 260, now via &lt;strong&gt;Diamond order code NOV09 0909&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ad_previews_halfpage_SRGN_new_rgb-783335.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px;" src="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/uploaded_images/ad_previews_halfpage_SRGN_new_rgb-783335.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The graphic novel will now contain an additional 30 pages of story, in one 250 plus page, full color volume, for the same original $18.99 price point. Yep, 30 extra pages for free!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://superrealgraphics.com/SR6_cover_final_front_785.jpg "&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 154px;" src="http://superrealgraphics.com/SR6_cover_final_front_785.jpg " border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;As for the new special issue, for those looking to pick up the story in single issue/comic book format, with the climax running an extra 30 pages, it will now be released in two parts. Part 1 will now be issue number 6, with 56 pages, and full color, for the same cover price as the special issue, of $6.99. That's 8 extra pages, and now in color instead of black and white, for the same price. Issue 6 is available now, via the &lt;a href="http://www.superrealgraphics.com/page3.html"&gt;SRG.com STORE&lt;/a&gt; both in print and digital, as well as comic shops via &lt;a href="http://www.havendistro.com/"&gt;Haven Distribution&lt;/a&gt; (order code SUPRSUP101).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 2, the series conclusion, will be released as a 32 page issue 7 this December.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, thanks for all the support!&lt;br /&gt;With the book's hiatus, and now delays in the GN and new issue release, it's been almost 2 years between issues!!
