  1. Congratulations, John!

    I’ll be sure to pick this up as soon as the print version is available. What can I say? I’m a material guy! 😛

    Thanks Yannick!

    It’s interesting, a lot of people have been saying they’re going to wait for the print version. You shouldn’t have to wait too long – it’ll be going on sale from IndyPlanet soon.

    • Well apart from the fact I’d have to read it on my laptop (I don’t have an iPhone or an iPad), I prefer the feel and smell of printed paper.

      I was actualy having that discussion with someone lately and I drew a parallel between comics and theater. With theater, when a play comes out, you have to be there, sitting in the audience, watching it live on stage. If someone tapes it and you watch it at home on your TV, you’ll find there’s a lot of the magic missing. For my part, I feel the same way about comics: the magic is there in the book when it first comes out and you hold it right here in your hands. I guess that explains why I have trouble buying trades too; it feels too much like a VCR version of the comic!

    This is so awesome John. As someone I’ve known over that the GLCMB for awhile now, it’s great to see your first comic come to publication. Good luck going forward!
