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?

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!
