my action series THE MAJOR hs just debuted at Komikwerks and I couldn't be happier, the guys over at KW are great do deal with.

the first chapter, BOMBS OVER BRAZIL, sees the special black ops agent thrown right into a South American slum to face a drug lord. just the tip of the iceberg of a political conspiracy, unfolding. it's for fans of the explodo.

the comic is also being serialized in Portuguese at www.themajor.org.

both websites will feature a new page every week - more in the future as ad revenue help me commission more art from the great team of fellow Brazilians Irapuan Luiz, his wife Michelle and our resident glaswegian Chris Mack [co-translator and musician of The James Orr Complex].

the 1st chapter of my MAJOR comic is available as a free download at Wowio for all US of A residents into retro Marvel, espionage, kicking, punching, political undertones and explosions.

you get it from there for free and the authors get $ome.

it feels awful reviving this thread, but it's for a good cause. 2 quick bits:

- I'm putting together a print edition of THE MAJOR #1 with a new backup story.

- it was nominated as Best Webcomic for2008's HQ MIX, Brazil's bigger Comics award [yes, we have a few].

it's been a nice weekend.

THE MAJOR #01 will have a small print run through Ronin Studios. two, actually: one in colour, the other B&W.

as of now it is almost ready to go to the printer, just waiting on an ad. my main problem at the moment is Ronin won't attend the San Diego ComiCon, so...

can anybody here with a table at SDCC spare a spot for just a small stack of this book? I won't be able to attend the con but this baby will... if somebody can handle it there. low maintenance, of course:

i'll ship to wherever you'll stay, to cut on weight for you. all proceeds from sales are yours to cover con expenses. i'm not sending a huge ammount of copies and the main goal is to get the word out there.

potential remaining copies to be shipped back to me on my resources or something quicker at the con itself, maybe handing them out to whomever you feel is suitable [your editor friends, for example =) ].

Hey man, not going to SSDC but just wanted to say congrats on the award and i like that you've decided to do two versions, be interesting to see how they do respectively.
good luck!

this is it:

Ronin Studios has published the print version of THE MAJOR #1 in full color. it’s available for US$ 3.50 [Can 4.05 - € 2.55] + shipping, exclusively at Indyplanet.

a B&W version to follow with a variant cover + bonus comic.

let's kill some trees.
