Imprint&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ape Entertainment today announced the launch of its new imprint, "KiZoic", which will feature content aimed primarily at younger readers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KiZoic titles will be released as either stand-alone 48-page one-shots or as mini-series in the standard 32-page comic book format and will be available to Direct Market and comic book specialty shops. All mini-series will be collected into digest (6 x 9) trade paperbacks and made available to both the Direct Market and the mass market, via Diamond Book Distributors, to Borders, Barnes &amp; Noble, Amazon.com and other outlets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first official title to be released under the new imprint will be Mecha-Nation, a 3-issue mini-series from Spectacular Spider-Man producers Greg Weisman (Gargoyles) and Vic Cook (Hellboy: Blood and Iron), and Greg Guler (Phineas and Ferb) with interior artwork by talented newcomer Antonio Campo and covers by Greg Guler and Sean "Cheeks" Galloway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The New Kid. The Geek. The Rocker. The Cheerleader. The Goth. An unlikely group of friends under normal circumstances, right? But in Mecha-Nation, Glass Lake High School's newest transfer student, Kevin Cho, discovers that he has a lot more in common with these individuals than just econ class! These kids are more than just homo-sapiens, they're Mecha-Sapiens! Empowered with the ability to transform into robotic warriors, they are the first of a brand new Mecha-Nation!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We are very excited to launch our new young reader imprint with a title like Mecha-Nation, and with such talented creators as Vic, Greg and Greg.

relaunch and wanted to do an entry-level book; something inexpensive to remind longtime readers that AV wasn't gone, and to introduce the book to new readers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It turns out that &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Black Coat &lt;/span&gt;mastermind Ben Lichius was thinking similar thoughts for everyone's favorite Revolutionary War super-spy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While tearing down the Ape display at Comic-Con, David offhandedly remarked "You and Ben should do some kind of flip book crossover." And that was pretty much it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In researching the concept further, we learned that Diamond would only include one cover in the catalog. So much for the idea of a flipbook, right? Since the book is an introduction to both universes, and since we're producing it at a loss, we opted to rethink our cover strategy. After all, how well does it serve both series if only one of them gets a picture in the &lt;i&gt;Previews&lt;/i&gt; catalog?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The solution we went with was the multiple covers making up one larger image. Shown here are a concept sketch by Ben and a penciled version of that sketch by me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More tomorrow...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4778474234765319932-6595005647582648197?l=apecrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/feeds/6595005647582648197/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4778474234765319932&amp;postID=6595005647582648197' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/6595005647582648197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/6595005647582648197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/2008/12/evolution-of-cover-part-1.html' title='Evolution of a Cover, part 1'/><author><name>Steve Bryant</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/S1XjFZNzxJI/AAAAAAAABJU/_U6o7O_j6Hw/S220/steve_mad_avatar.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SR2pcPFuf_I/AAAAAAAAAqQ/sW4fmtVZ5Os/s72-c/cover_comp.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778474234765319932.post-2390691704002302839</id><published>2008-12-07T13:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-07T14:07:38.410-08:00</updated><title type='text'>December 08 Previews</title><content type='html'>New Ape Entertainment product is now available for order in the December 2008 PREVIEWS catalog!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br clear="left" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apeprinting.com/comicspace/avbc_av.jpg" align="left" vspace="5" hspace="10"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Athena Voltaire and Black Coat Special&lt;/b&gt; -  Two Pulptastic Heroes.

It's both the closest con to my house (it's ab&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.subculturecomic.com/ii.jpg" align="left" border="0" height="151" width="175" /&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;out a two hour drive for me) and arguably my favorite con of the year. Why? Lots of reasons. For one thing, it's a very friendly con--Sheldo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;n  and his crew take very good care of the guests and exhibitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Second, it's an accessible show. That means that it's not overly crowded. Anyone who has been to San Diego knows exactly what I mean--it's so crowded there that you can't move on occasion, much less meet guests, go to panels, or heaven forbid, go through the dollar boxes on the floor. Heroes Con doesn't have that problem. The number of people, and the space available for those people, is just about perfect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Third, it has the best charity auction in comics. Everyone, from the big names to the small ones, usually do a piece for the auction. Granted, stuff from Adam Hughes and a few others goes for ridiculous money, but many of the pieces are very affordable and very good. You'll even get a chance to see some of the people creating their charity pieces before your very eyes--it's fun to watch.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Fourth and finally, it's a very indie friendly show. Tons of small press people are there, and the crowd is very indie-appreciative. That usually makes for a profitable week for most of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" align="justify"&gt; &lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;If you're at the show, I'll be at table &lt;b&gt;SP-31&lt;/b&gt;.

Wayne and I discussed Athena's past, present and future, as well as talking about movies, comics and my other upcoming &lt;a href="http://www.apecomics.com/"&gt;Ape Entertainment&lt;/a&gt; book, &lt;a href="http://ursulawilde.blogspot.com/"&gt;Ursula Wilde.&lt;/a&gt; The &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Athena Voltaire&lt;/span&gt; trade paperback collection, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Flight of the Falcon&lt;/span&gt; is Wayne's &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Indy Pick of the Month&lt;/span&gt; and he tells you how you can get it for a whopping 45% off!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you unfamiliar with Wayne's show, it's an entertaining look at movies, tv, comics and general geekery, all told in a warm, conversational manner. Wayne has years of radio experience and it shows in his podcast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://crosspointlive.ord.cachefly.net/RadioWayne/RadioWayne18.mp3"&gt;Download the episode here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Type rest of the post here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4778474234765319932-3790348025171642611?l=apecrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/feeds/3790348025171642611/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4778474234765319932&amp;postID=3790348025171642611' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/3790348025171642611'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/3790348025171642611'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/2008/05/steve-bryant-on-radio-wayne.html' title='Steve Bryant on Radio Wayne'/><author><name>Steve Bryant</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/S1XjFZNzxJI/AAAAAAAABJU/_U6o7O_j6Hw/S220/steve_mad_avatar.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SCQ04KDIBtI/AAAAAAAAAgE/wdR8Ro7vhrc/s72-c/fof05.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778474234765319932.post-4872131882701649160</id><published>2008-05-07T04:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-09T04:29:59.256-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Steve Bryant on Comic Geek Speak</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SCQwS6DIBpI/AAAAAAAAAfk/253WSLCvJ-A/s1600-h/av_fof_trade_cov.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SCQwS6DIBpI/AAAAAAAAAfk/253WSLCvJ-A/s200/av_fof_trade_cov.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198332971270538898" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SCQwM6DIBoI/AAAAAAAAAfc/N2-hYOO4i2M/s1600-h/generic1.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_XB6p9SWZCNk/SCQwM6DIBoI/AAAAAAAAAfc/N2-hYOO4i2M/s200/generic1.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198332868191323778" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I stopped in to chat with the &lt;a href="http://www.comicgeekspeak.com/"&gt;Comic Geek Speak&lt;/a&gt; guys earlier this week.

You can find it on page 214, along with some other great Ape Entertainment titles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As with the first issue, #2 will feature two variant covers: the "A"cover by &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Joe Staton&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.lopezstudios.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Alfredo Lopez, Jr.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and a guest cover by &lt;a href="http://www.matthaley.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Matt Haley&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Ghost, Birds of Prey&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; G.I. Spy&lt;/span&gt;). Each version has its own order code (see below) so you can choose in advance which version you want to get.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a brief synopsis of issue #2, "Dead Man's Hand:" &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;A husband's bad luck at cards results in a violent, twisted web of lies, blackmail, murder, and an explosive climax at sea with Port Nocturne's beautiful and deadly protector.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;And here's what &lt;a href="http://www.projectfanboy.com/vb/showthread.php?t=501"&gt;"Mistah Z" at Project Fanboy&lt;/a&gt; had to say about this issue:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;This story continues the compelling crime/noir feel that was initiated with the first issue. While archetypical to the genre, I found the story to still manage to be fresh and compelling, giving some pulpy nods to its inspirations. The sub-plotting introduces and develops some "lesser" (for now, at least) characters, drives the main plot, and continues the mystery of "who is Femme Noir?" by trotting out all the possible suspects just long enough to keep you wondering. Joe Staton's art continues to be top notch and, once again, really ties the whole crime/noir vibe together. I'm looking forward to seeing how this mini-series develops.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;The Diamond Item Code is MAY083591. (Staton &amp;amp; Lopez)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;The Diamond Item Code is MAY083592. (Haley)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, if you can pre-order it from your local comics shop, please do. Every pre-order helps a lot, and shows the store owner that there is interest in the book, which may lead him to order a few more copies for the shelves. Not sure where your closest comic shop is?

To date, eight new strips have been posted, following an original series of six strips done in 2007 as advertisement for the comic series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are plans to continue the strip indefinitely, as there are countless stories left to tell about Jason, Arthur, Noel, and the rest of the crew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Should demand warrant it, there are plans to publish the webstrips on a regular basis, either in floppy or book form.  Also, the possibility exists that production could increase, again, depending on demand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So sit back and enjoy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can find the webstrip at http://www.subculturecomic.com.

The bottom line out of all of this is that &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Athena Voltaire&lt;/span&gt; will return!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coming this Summer, we'll release the trade paperback collection of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Flight of the Falcon&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later this year, I'll be releasing the first of a series of standalone one-shots, graphic novellas, if you will. They'll be somewhere between 48 and 64 pages, perfect bound, and each one will be its own mini-trade. If you're the type who waits for the trade, you won't need to wait. If you're the bagging-and-boarding type, this is what you'll be getting, as well. I'm shooting for a $7–8 price on each volume.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why the change? With the creator fallout between Paul and me last year, many retailers and readers alike don't know what the heck happened to our favorite aviatrix. If I produce complete done-in-one volumes, on time, I hope to earn back the consumer and retailer confidence we lost when the entire Mu-King miniseries was postponed and then eventually canceled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The major change is that I'll be writing and drawing the adventures of our favorite aviatrix. Paul will continue to produce his webcomic, &lt;a href="http://www.terranautscomics.com/"&gt;Terranauts&lt;/a&gt;, but will no longer be involved in &lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Athena Voltaire&lt;/span&gt;. Paul's departure has resulted in a "taking his toys with him" scenario, so there will be some story modifications when the first one-shot releases. However, I can say that along with myself, editor Molly McBride and color artists Chad Fidler and Jason Millet are all happy with the tweaks to the comic and we're dying to share it with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch the skies!

I'm trying to decide which cover layout/logo to use on the upcoming &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Femme Noir: The Dark City Diaries&lt;/span&gt; comic book miniseries that I've written for Ape Entertainment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the past year or so, as we've steadily worked towards publication, I've been pretty well set on the layout/logo above left. I felt that it was less intrusive to the great art I was getting for the covers and looked kind of, well... &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;classy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But recently, various people – including my publishers! – have been pointing out that the original &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Femme Noir&lt;/span&gt; logo by Nate Piekos (above right) has a certain amount of brand value, as series artist &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Joe Staton&lt;/span&gt; and I have been using it in association with the property since it began as a webcomic back in March of 2001. That's nearly &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;seven years&lt;/span&gt;! Their argument is that we have spent a lot of time building brand equity into that logo and that it would be foolish to not use it on the comic book. It's a good point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I still personally prefer the "deco" look I came up with, but I'm open-minded, and the original logo certainly "works." I guess I'd just like to get a few more opinions before I make up my mind....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what do you think? Post your choice in the comments and help me out, okay?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4778474234765319932-3788868074035826345?l=apecrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/feeds/3788868074035826345/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4778474234765319932&amp;postID=3788868074035826345' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/3788868074035826345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4778474234765319932/posts/default/3788868074035826345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://apecrew.blogspot.com/2008/01/let-your-voice-be-heard.html' title='Let Your Voice Be Heard!'/><author><name>Christopher Mills</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15978811373546110421</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-t7xrU9G_DNM/TqE0Nb0H9mI/AAAAAAAAEkE/qwfHTXJt-Sc/s220/Me.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778474234765319932.post-4354878655298700666</id><published>2008-01-19T01:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-01-19T01:22:55.233-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Pre-Order Goblin Chronicles #2!</title><content type='html'>Pre-order issue #2 today at your &lt;a href="http://csls.diamondcomics.com/" target="_blank"&gt;local comic shop&lt;/a&gt; (in stores March 2008).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Issue Description:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Before our heroes can confront the Dark Queen, they must consult a mysterious oracle.

At the moment, I'm working on raw content, with layout and illos (probably photographs) to come later; the whole thing will be bundled as a downloadable PDF and may be available for sale if demand warrants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I tried posting it here, but it's disgustingly long and Blogger doesn't let you generate a "more" tag without jumping through a ridiculous number of hoops.
