Here is the National Anthem page from the Encyclopedia -- Anthem is illustrated by Chris Ivy and the panels are by Chuck Patton(pencils) and Rodney Ramos(inks).  Chuck is doing a few more panels for the Bill of Rights entry and the Mr. Freedom entry is being colored now as we had Chuck do those too.  We just want the product to be great so that is why we made sure to have some original art panels.

Enjoy

Art update and more

We've been showing a lot of Barry Kitson's art off so we thought we'd give a sneak of one of the Great Ron Frenz's pages -- and yes, that is Samson, the Green Lama and Hans (one of Ace Comics' villains).

Second, here is a page from Luis Rivera's bonus story -- who is this woman and where is she???? You'll have to read the graphic novel to find out.  Plus, here are Luis' two art rewards -- looking great.

And, here is a drawing of THE CLAW by new find David Q which will be part of the free .pdf story we promised for running late -- that too is being worked and we've a separate art team so we don't add a moment's delay into the graphic novel -- 

In terms of origins, Keith Giffen was excited by the project and has already finished his origin and it is off for inks -- Ron and Barry are plugging away and art is coming in, getting inked, getting colored, scripted, etc. every single day.

Here is the last page for the Encyclopedia

We know we've been late so we've tried to add a few upgrades and the Temporal Comics encyclopedia entries usually show a few panels of the 1940s characters except there are a few characters that are brand new and while the main drawings were penciled, inked and colored, we realized there were no panels -- we didn't want to slow our main teams down but also didn't want to give you all less then the best so what to do?  What to do?  

Here is what we did -- we went ahead and hired DC and former Justice League of America penciler Chuck Patton to create some panels and hired Marvel/DC/every comic company you can name inker Rodney Ramos to ink them so that we would not slow down our great teams on the main book -- here is the last of the panels Chuck penciled -- Rodney already inked the first set and Chris Sotomayor has them to color.  Today we sent Rodney the last 3 panels to ink which he'll do later this week -- then off to the great Chris Sotomayor and then the encyclopedia is done.  

Hope you enjoy the sneak peek!!

Thank you all again - we want to keep showing progress to everyone so here are two panels so we don't spoil the page colored by the brilliant Chris Sotomayor and here is part of a gorgeous splash by Barry Kitson with inks by Mick.  It is now off to Chris to color.

We'll have more Ron Frenz art to show off soon as well.

I know I'm running behind and I apologize profusely and totally -- I keep the updates so you all can see how amazing the art is and to show you how much we are working to get everything done 

-- Mark Texiera - here is a panel from Origin of Veda the Cobra Woman

-- Steve Scott & Rodney Ramos - a panel from the Origin of Lady Serpent

-- Chuck Patton - the Liberty Brigade Encyclopedia -- we felt that we should stick to the Temporal Comics layout and have a few panels for each character but since Bill of Rights and Anthem are new, we went out and commissioned Chuck Patton so we'd have some panels -- here is one -- can anyone guess the villain?
