Anyone seen Architect lately?

They way John talked earlier there probably won't be. But you never know.
especially after how much he said it cost to send them all out...

Yeah, I think the story is very good and the premise is interesting. It kind of reminds me of a young Peter Parker dealing with the normal problems a teenager has to face, but now has some awesome power at his disposal.

The effect created by the special ink is amazing. A few panels almost have a 3D look to them.

Your right. Awesome coloring! I received mine today in the mail & spent the afternoon admiring it!

I received my Zoom Suit package when I arrived home late last night from work. The effort to put this package together for us is quite impressive. Very nice.

Anybody have #13 they want to trade for a different #, I think I have #105 or something? LMK.
I am selling "nothing" on ebay-yet.

Woo-hoo! I just got mine! The mail ran about 5 minutes ago and my envelope was there.

Very nice package, John! The book *looks* great! The printing process on the cards and the comic give the gray & metallic elements a certain gleam to them (or is that just me?) that is subtle enough to not be distracting, but give the book an extra special touch. The extras such as the cards, the poster, etc was very nice too! I can't wait to actually read it!

Thank you very much, John!!
I would agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

JT,

I received my book today and it is AWESOME!!! I already read the pdf version so this baby is getting bagged and boarded ASAP!

The colors on the book are AWESOME! I really don't understand how you can make any money on this project with all the promotion and the high quality product you are putting out, but I REALLY like the series so far! I can't wait for issue #2!

It doesn't hurt that Bob Layton and Bart Sears are doing covers for you either as they are 2 of my favorite creators. :thumb:

Thanks John - you are the man! :D

I got mine yesterday - VERY nice presentation (now to actually read the book)

:cloud9:

Thanks big-time, JT and Greg and all the others who helped put this together! I'll have to pick up TWO copies instead of one at my LCS!!!

You haven't gotten the cards I have sent you yet? They better come in the next few days or I will and to start getting upset at the PO.

If you get #26, I'd be happy to trade my #55 for it. My book is in awsome shape. Only a small indent at the spine. LMK.

ps: if you haven't read this book yet give it a read before you seal it away. The little inside jokes and stuff will keep you interested.

I'm with you. I think I signed up a few times, but maybe not, I guess. I'm in Tampa, so I think it probably would've gotten here pretty quickly.

I read the PDF on the website a while back. Liked the coloring. I could see the concept working out better on kids tv moreso than as a comic. I guess I'll have to pick #1 up at a store.
