The Edge Update -- Solar 2004 Fanzine Project

Post by ManofTheAtom »

Hey everyone:

I've updated my Solar site with the script and what artwork I have for the Solar 2004 project.

My hope is that when you see it, those of you with artistic skills might want to contribute to it so we can finish it.

Remember, the art is not completed but the scripts are, so you will get a complete story.

Enjoy :)

I noticed that I used the wrong image for page 17, so I've uploaded a replacement.

It's a small image because I can't get access to the bigger one. John uploaded a tremendolusly big image to the Yahoo group that's next to impossible to open with what I have on this computer.

The differences between this version and the previous one is that the multiplex is called Vanhook's and the store Gayle and her date walk by is called Layton Electronics.

The issue name drops a lot of names associated with the Solar comic, like these two, the Shooter Memorial Stadium, the Windsor-Smith Pub, and a restaurant called JJ's.

What did you guys think of the way we resolved things? Like the cliffhanger from Solar 60, the VH 2 stuff? And the ending?

I'd like it if some of you could do a few more concrete reviews of the story, heh.

But how does it read? lol.

You gotta read the scripts too :(

"In annoying Jan voice" Art, art, art.

It's always the art, never the story :(

We had the same problem when trying to do the book, little to no feedback on the story even from the artists drawing the pages.
