I penciled out my portion of the story today and it looks like I'll be doing 5 pages too... so next week the story will come out daily on Dr.McNinja's site every day.

I also penciled out the rest of the Ultimate Battle and figured out we have 14 more pages left in that sucker.  It's quite epic, and I guarantee you can not even begin to predict where it goes.

If you aren't hip to CHOP you need to be!  It's the Axe Cop podcast featuring James and John of Nobody's Listening Podcast and me, all talking about Axe Cop.  We announced the winner of the limerick contest last night and so far they have not responded.  Perion, are you out there? 

See you tomorrow with Chris's last page for the week and the end of the first half of "Stolen Pizza, Stolen Lives."

We talk to Ethan Nicole about the upcoming Axe Cop comic from Dark Horse, Comicon, the Dr. McNinja crossover and Episodes 23, 24, 25 plus Ask Axe Cop 14.

I think this episode featured one of Chris' and my favorite ideras from Malachai, and that is that there is a secret monster door, and to go in you have to wear two monster costumes on top of each other, because when you go inside they will x-ray you and they need to see you are still a monster inside.

Other than that I don't have much to say today.  I have to go do a bunch of chores.  See you tomorrow!

I'll get Chris back next week when my pages go up on his site.  For now I have been working on the cover for the big Axe Cop collection to come out in December... which happens to be the anniversary of the creation of Axe Cop. 

I have had a few people let me know that these episodes are titled "Ask Axe Cop".  I put these into the Ask Axe Cop category because I didn't want to break up the current storyline.  Our site isn't really set up for all these different story lines and eventually we will need to go to a chapter by chapter orginizatoon rather than tons of episodes.  It's all part of the growth process.  So for now it is a temporary fix.  I put anything that is not the current running Axe Cop story in the Ask Axe Cop section including featured Guest Episodes and Axe Cop presents.

I found the clip of Axe Cop on G4, when Blair Butler visits the Dark Horse booth.  Jeremy, a cool guy, admittedly gets his facts all wrong when he confuses Wexter with Dinosaur Soldier... but I still think they did great justice to Axe Cop and it was a great little feature:

On another note... Falicia Day from that video came up to my booth at Comic Con and I had no clue who she was because I don't watch much TV.  I found out later who she was. 

That's all for today.  If you still haven't ordered my new sketch book  or a sketch from the Axe Cop art shop, you probably should because I am probably going to stop selling those things once I get going on the miniseries.  I'll just be too dang busy.  See you tomorrow!

AXE COP & Dr.McNINJA PAGE ONE

I had been asked for a quote from Malachai about San Diego Comic Con, and I tried to get it from him after we were talking about the McNinja cross over, so he just incorporated Comic Con into the story.  I see Christ credited Malachai for the story on this, which is fitting.  Malachai really took over on the story on this one. 

Sorry, the site is so bogged down right now that I can'y even get into my editor and post images, so this blog, which I had some pretty pictures for, will just have to be all text for now.

For instance, I was going to post this pic (which appears to be a snapshot of G4's live coverage of Comic Con) of Baby Man and Fire Slicer at comic con.

Chinashop came by my booth and interviewed me and took a bunch of pictures.

A great interview is now up at Vevant.

You can see Axe Cop featured on MSN's Daily Bubble.

And, I admit this is a pretty boring and rough video, but nevertheless it is proof that I was on the Dark Horse panel, my first panel.  What an honor to share the stage with Mike Richardson, Dark Horses's founder, Eric Powell (the Goon) and Gerard Way (lead singer of My Chemical Romance and author of the Umbrella Academy).  Here is the video.  I come in at about 2:19.

That's enough for now!  If the site is running slow, it's because we are having record traffic due to the McNinja crossover and all the Comic Con coverage.  I hear we were on G4.  If anyone has a video for that, please send it to me.

Oh yeah, more good news... all 5 axe cop pages this week will be McNinja cross over pages.  See you tomorrow!
