spend the next six weeks filming myself FINISHING THE BOOK.

Jesus, dude. How many pages do you have left? How many pages have you already done?

A lot, and.... A lot.

When you're drawing / writing / toning / lettering / designing / everything your whole graphic novel, and nobody is supporting or monitoring you (rather, they believe you will fail), you could spend 6 weeks on 3 pages, or 6 weeks finishing a book.

Since I believe I will finish it, and the people who want to watch awesome in the making believe I will finish it... I will make that a braodcasted reality, on it's road to finishing.

PS: finishing it in those 6 weeks, are to ensure the comic will come out AT ALL- THIS YEAR. That's how far in advance comics works.

ok more like a whole hecka lot, and just a bit more. but anything over 20 pages unfinished still feels like "a lot" to me. enough for 6 weeks!

i am openly in love with you, corey lewis.

i think this is a great idea, actually! i know at least the
hardcore fanboy/nerdy-nerd types salivate over anything that gives
them 'behind the scenes' access to how comics are made.
i'd love to see something like this--it'd be like watching a live
action version of Bakuman!

yes. or like SUPER SIZE ME, but with 6 weeks of pure comics. instead of eating Mc D's. actually there will probably be that, too.

That sounds fucking awesome. do it. I will watch you constantly if it means that you will make art on the quick. I know a little pressure/attention can help sometimes....

reyyy February 23 2010, 23:05:42 UTC

yeah. I like attention from people who like to watch me.

It would be nice to get attention from people who like watching art in progress, instead of just passive attention toward the book, in the form of people who believe it will never come out. eff that.

damn... those are some of the cutest asian girls I have ever seen.

I admire you, but not secretly.

But that's a great idea, especially the part about open peoples' eyes to this art form. Generally people seem to still think comics are the bottom tier of the art world, just under cartoons. They've no idea just how tedious and demanding the field is. Heck, I don't even know the full extent of the heartache (and the heartthrob oh yus oh yus) so I'd love to see a comic making documentary sort of thing that's not on those apparent high horse DC and Marvel dudes.

GO ROCK THAT SHIT DUDE!
