The Brothers McElroy - Update

Posted by josh under Beta Books, The Brothers McElroy |

It’s been a couple of weeks since I gave you an update on what has been happening with the Bros McElroy. Diego has been working his tail off, and we have pretty much finished the book. We are now inking up a storm, and will shortly be coloring it.

I am a little suprised at the amount of time it is taking to complete the book, as I have not had to have a client sign off on each stage of the process in previous books I have edited. Despite the slowdown, this is ensuring that the writer is getting exactly what they want, and their story is being portrayed exactly how they envisioned it.

I am looking forward to working with the various winners of Comic Creation Nation. I have been lurking around the boards, and have read quite a few proposals. There are quite a few good ones out there.

Keep up the good work guys!

  • Yeah, I don’t think the approval at each stage thing is the standard, but given that Z2H plans on working for people getting their starts in the business, an approval-heavy process is warrented, I think.

    Great to hear the book’s coming along well though. I for one can’t wait to see the finished result.

  • Thanks for the comment Colin. Yes it is rather different when coming from a traditional comic editing background, but it works well in ensuring that you, the writer, get exactly what you want. I am very excited about the book and cant wait to get some more colored pages shown to you all.
