I'm defiantly...uh, I mean definitely...interested in this. As long as I get plenty of articles about Dogs of War and War Dancer.

Our company ATF compliance lady is a horrible speller and frequently writes "defiantly" when she means definitely, sometimes changing the meaning of the sentence significantly. It can be kinda funny.Burrito Boy wrote:I'm defiantly...uh, I mean definitely...interested in this. As long as I get plenty of articles about Dogs of War and War Dancer.

Yep, that kind of thing, sometimes as it pertains to the federal government and federal firearms law.

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
Thanks guys. I’ll post here when it’s close to ready for publication.

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
Schism had one page colored before DEFIANT went under. I didn’t know that. I’ve obtained the ability to publish that colored page in the zine. I believe JayJay colored it.

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
The DEFIANT fanzine I’m putting together will have an exclusive Jim Shooter interview by JC Vaughn. We’re close to the finish line as well. Recently I’ve been working with corvettejim to put together a DEFIANT checklist for the zine. Jim has the most extensive DEFIANT collection known to exist, and is pretty much a DEFIANT savant. We have a JG Jones interview for the zine in the can, along with a Joe James interview and more. I’ve been blessed to be able to get a scan of the only colored Schism page too. Just lots of exclusive stuff for the DEFIANT zine. As an added bonus, my ugly mug should appear in it somewhere as well.

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
That's awesome!
I'm closing in on completing my base Defiant collection (5 issues to go - all stuff from the last couple months of publishing). But I haven't read a page of it yet. Still would be interested to get my hands on the zine!

Nice! I’ll definitely post here when it’s available and how to get it!

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
I have never done a custom bind, but Defiant would be a cool project to start.
Does anyone have recommendations for mapping?
Also, any recommendations for how to handle Glory 0 and Good Guys 1.5 as far as printing?

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
I’ve been looking forward to this since it was announced.
thanks for taking the time to pay tribute to an awesome comics company! I definitely want to purchase a copy upon completion.

Muse Rocks! Check out “The Handler”.

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
I have been reading new posts in this thread and just realized that I never posted that I am interested . . .
I am defiantly interested!

Re: Putting together a DEFIANT Comics fanzine
Thanks for the interest! The zine is almost finished. There is a certain extremely important interview taking place that we’re waiting to be completed. It’s an incredibly insightful interview featuring, well, you can imagine who it features.
The zine also has lots of other great stuff in it. Key Defiant creator interviews, articles, and CorvetteJim Hollister, who has the largest and most extensive Defiant collection known to exist, and I put together a comprehensive Defiant checklist.
If anyone wants to learn more you can join my Facebook group DEFIANT COMICS FANS. I have the cover posted there, and it’s incredible. Since Photobucket became Photospam I don’t know how to post pics here.
