The New Year has started off good for me. I started my new full time job about 3 weeks ago and it is going very well. People are very nice there and work hours are good. It still gives me time to work on post-nuke. Although I have to admit the first two weeks kind of kicked my ass, but I am getting used to it now. I'm back to work on the new comic pages. I still don't have enough pages done for my buffer zone to start regular updates. So it will be a few more weeks for me to get them done, so please be patient! There will be much more to come. I am also making my Deviant Art site my new personal blog page. I try to keep this page strictly for post-nuke comic related topics. So check out my Deviant art site for new personal blogs.  

I also finally got high speed Internet! The small town I live in doesn't have high-speed cable lines so I had to go wireless. I've been stuck with dial-up this whole time. Yes, the horror!! I did try the mobile Internet stick for the last few months and it worked pretty good. It was much faster then dial-up, but it sometimes cut in and out. Which was very annoying. The main problem was the price. It was far to expensive to use a mobile stick. While the set-up for high-speed wireless Internet was expensive, the monthly fees are much cheaper. I'm very happy with my new high-speed Internet. It is very nice being able to download 10mb in less then a minute!

I just seen James Cameron's new movie Avatar. Wow!! I was really blown away by it. I liked it a lot! One of the best science fiction movies I've seen in a long time. I think the story is great and the visual effects are on a whole new level. I really recommend people see it in 3D if you get the chance. It really is amazing!

My heart also goes out to the people of Haiti hit by a massive 7.2 magnitude earthquake, which leveled much of the country. Haiti has a rough history and I hope all the international aid is actually going to where it's needed and they make a speedy recovery. A truly horrifying situation.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here is the long awaited page 10 of chapter 10! We learn a little more about Emily's past in this page. Oh, the plot thickens. I'm still working on my buffer page zone, so please don't expect regular updates quite yet. This was an end of the year present for people being so patient. I'm making good progress on these pages and I will be updating regularly very soon. I'm trying to get things fired up here again. So please show your support by Voting, checking out our sponsors ads and if you can, buy an issue one comic book

It's hard to believe this decade is over already. 2009 has been quite a year for end-of-the-world type movies. 9, 2012, The Road, and The Book of Eli. I think I maybe missing one more but I can't remember. Anyway I haven't seen any of them! I do plan to see them soon once I have more time. But it is something for you to check out if you haven't already. I am planning to see Avatar in 3D soon. I'm a big James Cameron fan and this movie looks amazing.

I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I'm hoping 2010 is the year I will finish post-nuke comic. I really want to thank everyone for being patient with me and not hounding me for new updates during this hiatus. I really needed a brake from Post-Nuke comic and it has really helped replenish my creative energy. A lot of people don't realize the exhausting amount of work that goes into these comics. I have been working hard on chapter 10 making a buffer zone. Where I have at least 15 to 20 pages done a head of time. Before I would make one comic page at a time. This would get me into trouble. I definitely can't do that now with an epic battle scene coming. It will of course have a cliffhanger on nearly every page. I can't have for example, an RPG (Rocket-Propelled Grenade) flying towards Christopher's head and... oh hold on, now everyone has to wait 3 weeks to see what happens next. I understand how annoying and unacceptable that is. That's why I'm making this buffer zone. I can't say when regular updates will start again. But I am working hard on it and once I have accumulated enough pages I will be updating the comic once again. But new comic pages should be up very soon.

I did update this website. I added new fan art to the wallpaper & fan art page and I also updated the FAQ page. I also finally setup a DevenatArt site. There you can see some of my other artworks. I just started it, so I will be adding much more artwork to it in the near future. I also have a Youtube channel. I haven't uploaded any videos yet, but I plan to in the near future. 


          

As for my gold prospecting trip. I wish I could show a hand full of gold, but that didn't quite happen. We did find some gold, on average a little over a gram of gold per day, shown in the image above. But our total gold didn't even come to an ounce. Hell I made more money with Post-Nuke Comics, now that is really bad! LOL. But that's not really the point. We're doing it because it is a lot of fun and gives us a reason to get outdoors. But I am giving up on that creek and moving on to another. The creek we were in is not the richest, and many people have given up on it for the same reason. It is also a very difficult creek to work. It had big rocks and bolders everywhere, making the digging process very slow. Either way it was a beautiful place and we had a good time. We seen a lot of wild life, Black Bears and a cougar. There was also a Bald Eagle living in the area and would sit above us on a tree watching intently at what we where up too. That was pretty cool. I didn't see any Sasquatches though. We had to be out of the creek by the end of September. That's when the Salmon fish arrived. By law we're not aloud to be in the creek during the Salmon spawning season. Which is ok by me because I don't want to contribute to the demise of the Salmon fish species. I am environmentally conscious and I do try to live as green as possible. 

It was a busy year but things are finally winding down now, so I have much more time to work on the comic. Thank you all again for being so patient, I really do appreciate it. Chapter 10 is really a spectacular chapter. It is the grand finale for this graphic novel and I put a lot of work into it. The wait will be worth it.

I'm sorry to say Post-Nuke comics will be on hiatus for a few more months. This is not the end of Post-Nuke, there will be more to come in the future. But for now there will be no new comic updates. The best way to stay in touch is to use our RSS feed.

There are many reasons for this. The main reason is chapter 10 is a very challenging chapter. While I do have the main story scripted, I am still working on the intricate sub plots and new character development. I have the whole battle scene storyboarded, but it is these next 10 pages (the lead up to the battle) that is giving me some trouble. This is a huge chapter, currently story boarded at 40 pages. There is a lot of planning and designing involved and I do have something special planned. But this is a lot of work and will take some time. 

Post-Nuke storyline


The number one question I get asked is "what is in the mysterious box?" I spent a long time thinking how I could explain this with out spoiling anything. I really can't tell people what is in the box, because it is a very important part of the story and will ruin the surprise. As you can see from my illustration above, the mysterious box is a very important part of this story. The object in the box is not only the final piece of the story puzzle, but also the point were several story lines converge. It is amazing how it plays out. Once you know what is in the box you can actually go back and re-read the entire comic and see it from an entirely new viewpoint. This will wrap up graphic novel one nicely, but will also raise many new questions,  which will be concluded in graphic novel two. The whole Post-Nuke story is broken down into two graphic novels each containing 10 chapters about 20 pages long. So we're just finishing graphic novel one.  Once you read the whole story you will understand why the story had to be told this way. This was always the plan.   



One of the many things I do is placer gold prospecting. Every weekend my father and I are exploring a well know gold bearing creek. I designed and  built a 3inch Suction high banker from scratch. It's basically a big underwater vacuum cleaner. It sucks up the gravel through the nozzle, and then runs it through the sluice box. The heavy material (like gold) is left behind while all the light material like rocks and sand is washed back out into the creek. It works great, and yes we are following all laws and regulations. We did find some good size gold flakes in several test holes and we feel we maybe nearing a gold deposit. Well I hope anyway. Ether way it is of fun and I do enjoy the great outdoors. This web site has great info about it if your interested in learning more. 

So that's what I'll be doing most of the summer. But in Fall time the water becomes to cold and in winter there is at least 2 meters of snow out there. I should be back with more updates late fall. I really want to thank all the fans that gave there support over the years. There will be much more to come and I hope you all will be back in the future.
