In the absence of Science Fiction Fantasy Saturday Snippets this week, I’m offering a belated Christmas present, or a Happy New Year’s treat.
Thanks to author Patrick Stutzman, my children and I whiled away many happy hours playing with Hero Machine online. My daughter created a very stylish warrior princess. My younger son created “Chick Man,” a superhero chicken. My older son created a series of scantily-clad barbarian beauties…along with a warrior or two.
Naturally, I took a stab at Blade Devon.
I thoroughly enjoyed the hero maker software and I look forward to trying my hand at a few frames for a graphic novel. It’s something I’ve been considering for decades. There isn’t currently one in the works, but what do you think? Should there be?
Gotta Name My Blog 
I’d come up with a script for an Aston West comic book once…since it never panned out, I went ahead and generated it into a short story, “Some Assembly Required” (part of my second Triple-Shot collection). I still wish that things would have worked out, because I think comics have a larger following.
It’s not too late. The right situation hasn’t presented itself is all. I remain hopeful for the both of us!
In my case, I had an artist and a publisher lined up, but it all fizzled. Maybe someday…
I would love to see a graphic novel or comic for the Aston West universe, too, T.M.
Me too…and if I could actually draw, maybe… 😉
Yes, there definitely should be a Black Wings Chronicle graphic novel!
Thanks, Heidi! It’s definitely on my mind. If I were a more consistent artist, I’d be on it already. Maybe that’s something you can bat around with the powers that be at RDSP!
