Graeme McMillan and I have a good old time talking about the Martian Confederacy on the io9 site. We cast the Martian Confederacy film, discuss the role of realism in comics and identify science fiction as a living language. Check it out

I thought I’d upload a couple of pages featuring Lou. Who I love. These pages are not in order. Just glimpses of Lou. This is page 20.

This is page 26:

I was recently interviewed by Tim at Deconstructing Comics. We had a rollicking conversation about the Martian Confederacy, my previous books, the state of independent comic books and a why Spider-Man will probably never get caught in a mens room with George Michaels. Listen in!

Jason and I (pictured here at Wondercon) have been working on the Martian Confederacy for over a year now… I had various art projects (Jane’s World) that slowed down the art production process. I take full responsibility for the slow down… BUT I wanted to start posting some of the original scanned art on our blog. I don’t want to give away spoilers for the book so certain pages I can’t show… also, the final book will be in color (Brian Miller is currently working on that). So this book is really a team effort. It’s been a real change for me working with a writer, but it’s been a terrific experience and I can’t wait to start on The Martian Confederacy Vol. 2!
Enjoy these first art postings… more to come…
First up… opening sequences of the book.

Spinner runs into some trouble on page 67…

And on page 70 Boone straps on some extra equipment for a new kind of voyage…

Much thanks to all the WonderCon attendees that made it so much fun to appear. I handed out postcards and talked up a Martian Confederacy storm. Our preview pages were worn out by the Sunday afternoon. JK Parkin from Newsarama stopped and we had a fun discussion about…well just about everything. He was also nice enough to plug Martian Confederacy on the Newsarama blog. Check it out.

I mentioned in my previous post about The Martian Confederacy that there was a third member of the “confederacy.” Well, she’s Lou… the hot, sassy, tri-sexual android who will be gracing the cover.
