The People’s Publisher

Alright, I apologize for my delay in posting. Canada Day weekend was insane for me and ended up doing a great deal of gardening which then in turn threw out my back. Yesterday I spent most of the time horizontal and eating back meds like fricken Skittles. Today was getting better until I heard about the Seattle Sonics, Markus Naslund and the lackluster of no Vancouver Canucks news. I ramble but man that stuff kinda bummed me out but I got some great comic news…

Abigail’s War is in the final race to get all the production together but it is not in crisis at all. I was just using the title to mock the (poor) DC Comics event book Final Crisis. Sandrine is the amazing lone artist that is working extremely hard on colouring the remaining pages and concentrating on the cover art. Ed Brisson is a machine as he letters all the CCN books and I am sure that we do not make things easy for him as the lettering on Abigail’s War is not like what you would seen in any typical comic book. This book’s lettering is leaning more towards the type of lettering seen in book like Sandman, Lucifer and Fables. More with stylized fonts, various coloured word balloon and that almost hand drawn look & feel. Here have a quick tease…

Jennica Harper, the writer of Abigail’s War, gives her POV on the process of late here:

Jennica, Sandrine and myself are now working on what we would like to see concept-wise for the cover artwork.
