Hello all!

Those of you who know me know I'm a colorist for a variety of publishers: Red 5, Dark Horse, and recently, Marvel.

But I'm bursting at the seams to announce that I'm working on my first personal, creator owned project!

It features a character created by me, and will be written by my new business partner Brian Roe, with pencils (hopefully) by the talented Zack Finfrock.

A four page preview is in the works for SDCC, as well as T-shirts!

We're hoping that initial T-shirt sales will help us finance the first issue.

If you think you might be interested in a T-shirt (free copy of the preview included!), please let me know! The cost will be about $20 (no more), and the shirts will be black, and feature our main character, Yva, shown below.

Thanks for reading!  -

Thanks Bri! I won't take any money until the shirts are in my hands, but I'll let you know as soon as they're ready!

Wow!!!! Let us know when we CAN buy the shirts!

THEN how long we have to wait for your project. My comic book lady gets kinda chuffed when I walk in every week and say, "Is it in yet?" =Ţ

Great job, Ronda!!

Shirts will be ready within the next few weeks, but knowing what sizes are most popular will help with the order. We are also considering doing a womans baby doll style as well, as we have 2 requests for that so far.

Looks great, Ronda!

I'm way past the baby doll stage, but a regular t-shirt with a woman who means business on it - sold! Probably a men's size medium here.

While we wait, what can you tell us at this point? Setting? Scenarios? Is Yva going to be a Lara Croft type? Curiousity is eating at me! [Wink]

I call Yva a "problem solver". She's essentially a hired gun, but an ethical one, for whom using that gun is kind of a last resort. Ex-military.

Her world is one where interstellar travel is common place, not unlike Star Wars. So we'll get to see her in all kinds of different settings.

The first issue is basically written, with several more stories, including back story, being fleshed out now.

It's official! The T-shirt order goes in Monday! Shown is a mock-up of the final design. If you would like one, please let me know, either here or via PM, and I'll respond with an email address for Paypal payment. The cost is $20 (US) for a standard T-shirt, $25 for a women's baby-doll style, plus $5 shipping in Canada or the US. Or, if you're going to be at SDCC, you can pick them up there.

Thank you to everyone for their interest and support!  -
