CHRONOS BATTALION

Monday, May 26th, 2008

Hey hey pals. Man the new Indiana Jones is the biz. Went to see it on Saturday as part of Stephen Mooney’s Stag party. Great day, great film. That scene with the ants, I just keep replaying it in my mind, it gets me all worked up.

So two weeks ago I came up with an idea for a new comic and have decided to put it through ZUDA, DC’s web comics thing. I hoofed through it, wrote it and did the character designs in a day and have alot of it drawn already. It’s tricky because you are limited to 8 screens. A lot of the entries on zuda have no ending, they just stop after the 8 screens so I really tried to have action, exposition and a definite ending.

That’s the mock up logo, looks good so far.

Like Hitler himself who kept raising new divisions and directing resources into stupid projects while losing a winnable war, I know I should be finishing up my Twisted Tales for 2000AD and marketing Amperduke. But this is fun! Well lettering it isn’t fun. God Bless silent comics.

The synopsis: A fugitive scientist escapes to PreHistory with an instrument vital to Nazi Germany’s victory. The Chronos Battalion is formed to pursue him. So it’s Nazi’s vs Dinosaurs vs Robots. Wahey!
It should be finished and if accepted, live in July. More info as it happens.

There’s an Irish entry in this months competition by Brendan Mc Ginley so go vote for him here
