Hi Folks,

We know you have all been very patient with us as we put The Liberty Brigade Graphic Novel together. Please know we are continually working on pages, colors and edits to make sure it is top-notch.

That said, we DO HAVE something for you today!

Shortly you will receive an email from Backerkit where you can download The Liberty Brigade Villain Files. Written by Michael Finn with a host of incredible talent including but not limited to Garrie Gastonny, Joe Rubinstein, Ron Lim and Mark Waid. I think you will love this book.

Best,

TNC

That last update was supposed to go out to only backers who purchased the Villains book. 

If you would like to have it and didn't get it during the campaign, you can still order it through Backerkit.

Sorry for the mess up.

Best,

TNC

Ok - more art and more updates -- 

Barry  Kitson is finishing the last page of the story right now and then he will be doubling back for a series of double-page spreads that occur earlier but have over 150 characters -- I think you will all be amazed!!!!  Mick Gray has 3 pages left to ink and then the double-page spreads as soon as those get turned in.  Our colorist has about 8 pages left to color and we just sent 22 pages of dialogue off to the editor for his views SO it feels like we are rounding the home stretch here folks...

The Villains book should be flying out as a .pdf to purchasers (I sure hope) this week as soon as the fulfillment team finds some time.  We'll wait a few weeks to see if there are any typos or errors we missed and then off to the printer.

The Heroes book -- we just sent Keith Giffen's origin off to the colorist and then it is ready to be dialogued -- Keith came up with a stellar origin and we are thrilled.  Garry "Warpsmith" Leach is furiously penciling and a tidbit is below.

Doug Braithwaite will be popping by the office in 2 weeks to drop off his completed 10-page story for issue #2.  Jae Lee sent in his cover and Pat Quinn is finishing his work for the "Scrapbook."  

A few treats for the eye:

Atomic Thunderbolt by Garry Leach
Jae Lee - Cover to Issue #2

Lots to show off --

Everybody is hitting on all cylinders so lets start with with a tiny panel by Barry Kitson featuring the Bill of Rights and Anthem -- one of our favorite pages in the book -- 

 And now a panel from the page right before but with Mick Gray's glorious inks to Barry's stellar pencils -- 

 And a few prelims to upcoming covers:

Isabedra - V cover based on All Star #12 

 And here is Jae Lee's prelim based on the famous Captain Marvel jr. #11 cover 

 And, here is Steve Scott with the Liberty Brigade version of Leading Comics #3

And, Pat Quinn tackles America's Greatest Comics #2 with a Reg'lar Fellas Variant featuring the Reg'lar Fellas and Lady Fairplay -- 



 Hope this shows how much we have going on - Barry and Mick racing to finish the art on the graphic novel, covers and art pouring in for issue #2 and we are scripting away on the graphic novel...
