Here
is another awesome fan art made by
Refaal. Thank
you very much Refaal! Very nice work! I really do love fan art. Well,
I'm back to work on page 3. Almost done it and it should be online
soon. Sorry for the delay. This month really shot bye fast for me. I have
a lot going on at the moment. The last few remaining pre-orders was sent
out last week. So if you didn't receive your
comic
book yet, you should receive it very soon. I grossly
underestimated how much work it would be to verify, sign and mail out all
250 pre-orders. But I think it all went well, and it was a lot of
fun. I personally feel this book release is a
special occasion. It's my very first printed comic book. So far people seem
to be very impressed with the printed
comic
book version, and a lot want to already pre-order the second one. I'm
very happy to hear that. I have been working hard on the second comic book
and I am almost done. I'll take pre-orders once I have the test print
done. Thank you everyone for buying a comic. I'm glad people like it, and
there will be many more to come.
One of my favorite TV shows is
"MythBusters",
mostly because they test crazy myths
like
this. On a recent show they were testing the myth if cockroaches would
be the only thing to survive the radioactive fallout from a nuclear war. You can see the last part of the show on this
YouTube
clip. I'm surprised those bugs can survive that
high level of radiation. Kind of interesting.

I finally finished
Page
2 of
chapter
10! It was a challenging page. I have also emailed everyone that
bought a
pre-order comic to verify their address.
It's a good thing I double-checked, as nearly half had changed their
address in this time, including my Mom, LOL! Anyway, if you did not
receive an email from me to verify your address, please let me know.
Emails where sent to the PayPal email address, and some Spam filters may
have block them. Everything has been going very well. It was actually a
lot of fun contacting fans, signing the comics and mailing them out. After
two years of work it is hard to believe it's finally all done! So it
was a real pleasure mailing them out. I have a lot more comics. So
if you would like a copy, you can buy it
here. I
hope you all enjoy them.

The
comic books have arrived! WooHoo!
Ka-Blam
did an awesome job printing them! I'm very happy how the comics turned
out! I ordered a lot of comics, so the order was broken down into four
parcels. Image shows one of the four. I am also sending emails to everyone
that bought a preorder to double check if the address and information is
still correct. So if you haven't received an email yet, you will very
soon. Please understand that I'm only one person doing everything and I
have over 250 orders I need to package and mail out. I do have everything
neatly organized and it is all going very well. Page 2 is almost complete
and will be online very soon.

Well, I'm making good progress on this page. I was aiming to have it
done last Friday, but I'm still working on the page. I am putting a lot
more effort into these pages. One big mistake I made when I started post
nuke was trying to make the pages as fast as I can to meet
deadlines. What resulted is inconsistent artwork, poor grammar and writing
and me having to go back a fix everything for the printed comic book. I'm
now making all the new comics in the correct comic format so they are
ready to be printed. It will save me a lot of time in the long run.
I'm also still waiting on the
comic books, I'm
really sorry its taking so long. The anxiety is killing me! I will be
receiving them very soon. I'm putting everyone's order
together, and I will be sending an email out to everyone that bought a preorder
to double check if the address and information is correct. So if you
haven't received an email yet, you will very soon. If all works out,
everyone that bought a
preorder should have the comic book in their hands
by the end of this month. Thank you all once again for buying the comic.
I'm also very behind with all my emails. So don't be surprised if you get
a response weeks or even months later. I'm very sorry about that. I'm a
little swamped with work at the moment.

Well
I finally finished
Page
1 of
chapter
10! Oh the plot thickens. Christopher (and you fans) may think you
know where this story is going. But it is unpredictable, with a major plot
twist coming in this chapter. I've been planning this chapter for very
along time. We're finally getting to the epic part. ;-)
I also would like to share another awesome fan art I received from HAI. He also
has a few webcomics on his site
HOmanga
and is currently working on his newest comic
"By
Moon Alone". Talk about raising the bar of web comics to a whole new
level! His artwork is incredible! Thank you HAI for the fan art! Very nice
work! :-D
Well a few fans have said they would like to donate, so here it is. I'd
prefer people to buy
Issue#1 comic book and receive
something return. But donations
certainly are greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your support over
these years!

Well I'm late again. Big surprise I know. But I am almost done and it
will be on line very soon. I am working on a few things for this website.
Like a proper merchandise
page. As some of you have noticed there is a merchandise button, but no
page! Also working on a link page.
The Post-Nuke comic book pre-order is also still
available. The comics are being printed at
Ka-Blam!.
I've been following this company since they started two years ago and have
heard a lot of good things about them. I've very happy with my test proof
print I received from them and I have also bought a few comics from
there online store
IndyPlanet.
I'm very impressed with their work and service. Unfortunately they are swamped
with orders most of the time and there is a 28day printing turn around time.
Delivery also takes about 2 weeks. So the comics will be mailed out
sometime in May. Sorry for the long wait. It's out of my hands at this
point. But I will keep everyone posted and thank you for buying the comic! It is greatly
appreciated!
I also received my copy of "HOW TO MAKE WEBCOMICS" last week and
must say I'm blown away by this book. Described as the go-to guide for a
new generation of cartoonists! Written by four pros who know the ins and
outs of the Web -
Dave Kellet (Sheldon),
Scott
Kurtz (PvP),
Brad
Guigar (Evil Inc.) and
Kris Straub
(Starslip Crisis). If you seriously want to get into web comics or
already have one and want it to become more successful, then
this is a must read. They crammed, and I do mean crammed so much valuable information into
this 200 page book its amazing. I sure wish I had this book when I started
Post-Nuke! Would have
saved me from a lot of trial and error. The book is for sale on
their websites (I
got mine from
Evil
Inc.) Anyway, I highly recommend this book!

Okay new update.
Mark fixed the problem with
chapter 10
web page. Thanks
Mark! So Yeah, that was a major typo on the cover
page. It was suppose to be "Battle" not "Battel". LOL...
Sorry for the confusion. Also, "Battle" appears like "BattLE" because of the weird text font
I'm using. Right now I'm just keeping it somewhat consistent, but I do
have plan to redo the titles in the near future. Anyway, its a big chapter,
lots of crazy stuff going to happen. There hasn't been much action in
Post-Nuke lately, but as you can see chapter 10 will definitely make up
for it. ;-)
Please vote for
Post-Nuke.

Here
is a awesome Post-Nuke fan art made by Geo Flores. He also has a web
comic you can read at
www.fayththesaga.com.
Very impressive work! Both the color and b/w look really
good in there own way. I personally am a fan of b/w art, so I like the b/w
one. But the color one also looks great, nice work ether way! Thank you Geo for taking the time to make this!
Really do appreciate it! :-D
Just one small technical note I'd like to share with people about the moon. Its actually not around in
the future. I guess no one knows that because I haven't revealed that
part of the story yet. I can't say more then that. Only that it is
explained in the bonus flash back story in the
printed comic book. Well,
not in this
first printed issue, but it will be explained in later
issues. This fact doesn't
really effect the post-nuke story. Since the sky is permanently stuck in overcast clouds
no one really notices the moon missing. I know it sounds crazy, but
it will all make sense. ;-)
03-20-08
Phew... finally done
Page
20 of
chapter
9. This is also the last page of chapter 9, moving on to chapter 10.
Now before some of you people flip out about page 20 please read what I
have to say. I'm really sorry you don't get to see what's in the box yet.
I'm not trying to be mean here. You will get to see what is in the box in
chapter 10. I scripted this part of the story over a year ago, and it also
sets-up future events. So I can't change the storyline at this point. It
just seems very cruel with this very long delay. But trust me, it will be
great! I can't say more without soiling the surprise or story. ;-)
The comic book pre-order sales are also doing
better. After a slow start, it will hopefully reach my goal of 200
pre-orders. I will be
ordering extra comics so I will have them on stock. You can order them
anytime and I will gladly sign all comics, Yes you read right, ALL comics
will be signed by me! If you have a special request please email me and
I'll make a note of it. I will also let everyone know when I have mailed
the comic books. Thank you everyone for buying the comic! It is greatly
appreciated! :-D
