And just in time for gifts season.

Seriously, I'm glad you took your art to next level with printing editions of your awesome art and always funny stories.

I wish you all the best and hope you get a lot of requests.

Thank you, Mr. Hazard! I hope you find April's Le Tout Burlesque comparable with most comics!


And thank you, Mr. OCP. Is there a way I can announce the comic on your blog?

Quote:

Consider done, buddy.

Congrats on the print edition, Chief! Actually, I find your comics better than most!

UPDATE: Woot! Check out the interview with yours truly on April's comic, at Comics Bulletin, "The Internet's Most Diverse Comics Webzine". I put in a plug for HM to boot, and they let me get away with it!

really cool interview CO, I learned a few things about you that I didn't know before. And thanks much for the plug!!

Agreed! Excellent interview, Chief! Learned a bit myself!
...BTW, FINALLY got around to ordering the book! Very much looking forward to having it in print!

Very cool Co! I know this is just the beginning of the good things in store for your book.

I suppose you know that the "fangirl" I mentioned in the article is our very own MissVee. And thanks for hosting the banner, Mr. WH! Somehow it looks better on the the HM page than it did when I first created it ;)

Your welcome sir.

Great interveiw and a great comic. it's always good to see a friend move ahead in this industry. I wish you all the best.

Guess what came to me in the mail today... Give up? It was my very own, hot off the press, copy of of "April's Le Tout Burlesque". Nothing could have delighted me more than seeing the mailman pull out the cardboard 10x14 envelope and place it in my mailbox. I just so happened to be watching from my living room window when it arrived, and it was like being a kid all over again. It was around 2pm, I was still in my PJs , and my hair was standing up, uncombed, like a rooster (I love weekends). Of course I quickly slipped on my winter boots and made a dash for the mail before any harm could come to my much anticipated package. There lay the envelope, slightly bowed, and bent, as it was too big for my mailbox. I snagged that bad boy, ever so gently, and scooted as fast as I could back in doors... I live in Wisconsin, and it currently is a bit too chilly to be out in your pajamas. Even thick ones that happen to have Homer Simpson plastered all over them.

Back inside I gingerly pulled the opener strip and peered inside. There it was. Nestled inside a polymer protective sleeve and between a copy of Irwin Alien's "Spacescape" and "Wyliman" #1.

The first thing that hit me was just how damn good that cover looks in print. I don't think I could have imagined the design would be so perfect for print. Try to keep in mind that our very own co_04 did all of the design work himself, then you will begin to see just how talented he is to have done so beautiful a job on it. The quality of the printing is such that co's work loses none of it's impact. Then I thought, this cover quality is just too damn fine for the measly $3.99 price. Suddenly I was afraid to open the book, because I was convinced the interior quality was sacrificed to allow for the exorbitant price tag of the glossy cover. It took a deep cleansing breath to proceed and then... pure joy. There was April in full glorious high rez splender. She's laying nude under some sheets. Her beautiful form brought to life by the talents of one Mr Chris J. Cole, Heromorph's very own co_04.

I knew that I would enjoy the book, because like so many of us here at Heromorph I watched co_04 develop and execute many of the skits that are in the pages of "April's Le Tout Burlesque". But I had no idea just how wonderfully suited his work is for the printed page. And I certainly had no idea just how good the print on demand comic quality would be from Indy Planet. Once I had this comic in my hands and started reading through it, I couldn't wipe the smile off of my face. Bravo Chris!

First off, thank you Monsieurs Hazard and pijon, and MissVee for your purchases. And thank you Stars, Mr. WH and everyone else for your encouragement, support, and enthusiasm, all of which made the comic possible. Had I not been a participating member here at HM, I'm sure I never would have even considered making comics. I must admit I have yet to see a printed version of it, but from what I've seen of Ka-Blam's products their colors are quite excellent. So, ironically, on Mr. Hazard's recommendation I'll just have to get one(!) And yes, the white cover was done deliberately because I wanted it to stand apart from most other comics. (Beatles, anyone?) You may have noticed the CO logo is a rip from the DC logo, plus the 4 stars making it CO 4.

Mr. Hazard I am so jazzed by your review that I'm not sure how to respond. I hope the sample(s) you received demonstrates the possibilities of POD for upcoming projects, secret or otherwise Also what's exciting is that anyone can participate in the comics industry. As print on demand becomes more sophisticated it will become indistinguishable from offset. But print is only one option, which may or may not go the way of the Dodo bird. The delivery of content is changing rapidly as with Web comics, downloads, cell phones, Kindle, and whatever other portable readers enter the market, etc. Just a mere few years ago this wouldn't have been possible. So who can foresee the state of the marketplace in the next few years?

Until that time, here is a sneak peek at the opening pages of April's second comic, which so far promises to be wilder, weirder, and more way out than the first.

DUUUUUUDE. I don't know where you come up with this stuff... but it is great! Feel like I am watching a sophisticated version of Hee Haa.

GREAT stuff! You need to be in the comics... this stuff is so professionally done!

Oh, and 'Bump'

Heh! Heh! Hee Haw. Thank you, Mr. McDeath! More sneaky peekies and silliness from April's hawt second comic...



In case you haven't seen all the promotion plastered all over the rest of this site or elsewhere. the first comic is still available @ http://www.indyplanet.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=3063
