What? It's only been four and a half years since the last update. And I have to say, I'm disappointed with the future so far - it's 2016 and I still don't own a jetpack. Get your shit together, future!<br />
<br />
Anyway, <i>Nicodemus Flynn</i> should be published by Markosia Enterprises in 2016. I think at this point all I can say is:<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">2011 is here and despite my lack of updates recently (partly due to the tradition of spending Christmas in a turkey- and alcohol-induced coma), the Nicodemus Flynn train continues to roll along towards its final destination: the town called Awesomeness. Everyone is still hard at work, with Robin, Robert and Amador all turning out great artwork, colours and letters, respectively.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Above is Robin's colour design for Anthony Klein, a hunter who, like Nick, specialises in the supernatural and who has a stake in what happens between Nick and the Pariah.</span></span>Alex De-Gruchyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06298261690439819622noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5043516164149724240.post-67275009070846079852010-10-25T06:55:00.000-07:002010-10-25T07:17:23.376-07:00Extra Sequential #4 - article<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSHHCcGvOLM5TFfQWO9wAcwD_dXPqU_HugFRHBAaZTjuYpQD8Se4THi69mFsIG0FZMzgd02XGcXZKpaJ-t2abD_TbBQdC-ECmHsGfQdT1V-JD26qNZpqhGuc4AmTWMQJ8oofw0RKF3g5XG/s1600/Extra+Sequential+%234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSHHCcGvOLM5TFfQWO9wAcwD_dXPqU_HugFRHBAaZTjuYpQD8Se4THi69mFsIG0FZMzgd02XGcXZKpaJ-t2abD_TbBQdC-ECmHsGfQdT1V-JD26qNZpqhGuc4AmTWMQJ8oofw0RKF3g5XG/s320/Extra+Sequential+%234.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> <i> </i></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Extra Sequential</i> #4, the latest and (sadly) final issue of the fantastic comic-related magazine, has been released online and is available to download for free right now. The issue contains a number of varied and interesting articles, interviews with high-profile creators such as Mike Deodato Jr. and Matt Fraction and also an early look at <i>Nicodemus Flynn</i> with commentary from Robin and me regarding the story, the characters, the artwork and the inspiration behind the whole thing.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It's a great magazine that's well worth checking out and you can download it from: www.scribd.com</span></span><br />
