#8 is now on store shelves, just in time for San Diego Comic-Con
International. Yeah! This site is probably gonna lie dormant
for a bit as I focus my attentions on Liberty
from Hell. But I am thinking that in about 6
months of posting the series online as a paid subscription
for those who can't find the dead-tree editions. Keep an
eye on this site for more information.
Speaking of the site... I'm also thinking
about reorganizing my comic project sites a bit. Mostly
so I don't have to type the news & information separately
on each sub-site. The Home would become the news and information,
then branch out to the other sub-sites, like BMI
and Ebin & May. You should also be able to get
to the other sub-sites more easily too. That's my hope,
at least.
Also, I've got the Liberty
from Hell site up and going. Issue one and two
of this new series has already been solicited through Diamond
Distributors and the first issue should hit store shelves
in August, and be Bimonthly after that. --Smudge

Well, #7 should be on the stands now, and #8 is in Radio's
hands. It's been a fun process all around, and I'd like
to take a moment to thank every one who's helped out, physically,
emotionally, and for red-lining my bad spelling! Not an
easy choir, let me tell you. ;p
There might be more BMI in the future after
#8, but for now I'm going to take a small break to focus
on other projects.
Next on the docket? Liberty from Hell,
a dark-ages fantasy/historical, coming from Radio Comix
in August. It's military, it's comedy, it's a bit yaoi (when
in Rome...), and it's all humans, too. Talk about something
completely different. I should have a web space posted for
it soon so keep your eyes peeled. This, of course, while
still turning out more Ebin & May.... --Smudge

Just got word from Radio that #6 is at the distributors
and should be winging its way to your local comic shops
in the week or so.

Well, #5 should be going to the printers soon. Yes, there
was a small gap in production (Due to contracts, see news
dated 6/11/02). No, the book has not been canceled. In fact
even as I write this, I'm busily inking #8.
In other news, as of issue 6+ you might notice
a (very) slight change in the book's look. Ed, unfortunately
has had a lot happen to him recently and unable to finish
the book. Nothing bad, mind you. Just RL getting too much
in the way. But Ed's still working on our other project
for Radio Comix, Ebin
& May. On the upside, however, both Baron Engel
and Richard Becker has come up to give a hand to make the
book look great and come out on time. Thanks guys. I couldn't
do it with out you!
I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get around
to updating the site. I've updated the new issue info (to
reflect #5) and will be updating the world essays mid-month.
Have a look around and enjoy.
Also of note, I've finally got the first four
issues of Bureau of Mana Investigation up online
for sale through BackBreaker Studios. They're listed in
the production section of
this site.

Just got back from San Diego Comic-Con. Oui-vay! What a
show. Just me and 60 thousand of my closest friends....
weeee! BMI #4 was out just in time for the show and I took
the opportunity to deliver #5 to Radio. Now onto #6+. (My
work is never done... ;p )
<-- 1/8 of the dealers floor this year. Taken on Thursday
when you could actually see the displays through the masses....
6/11/02
Just got the word from Radio - there is going to be a small
gap between #4 and #5. #5 is going to be solicited for November
this year, with #6-#8 following in a Bi-monthy schedule.
Of course (as with anything in comicbook-dom), this is all
tentative. Keep your eyes peeled for the books in Previews
and on the store shelves.

=ARRG!= in my vain attempt to re-vamp the site to make it
easier to manage and update, I completely hosed it for anyone
still using Netscape 4.x. I apologize deeply to any Netscape
user trying vainly to view this site for the past month.
5/16/02
I've updated the site to reflect Issue #3 which should be
out near the end of the month. I've also got a minor store
link in 'production' for anyone who would like prints or
original art related to BMI. At the moment, I don't have
issues to sell. You'll have to pop over to Rabbit Valley
Comic Shop or Radio Comix for that. Sorry. This should (knock
on wood) be changing sometime in the near future.
Issue #1 and #2 are on the shelves! Look for
it at your regular comicbook shop. If they're not there,
ask your local shop order to re-order the books for you.
#3 should be on the shelves as well any day now, and #4
has been solicited for July!
Thanks to all the good folk who stopped by
at Further Confusion. It was great meeting you all. Both
Ed and I will be with Radio Comix off and on at San Diego
International Comic-Con in August. I'll be hanging some
art at AnthroCon, but will be unable to go in person due
to finances. You can also track me down at Con Jose (World
Con) in San Jose this year too! After that, I'll be up at
ConiFur NW in October. Do come by and say "Hi"
if your there. It'll be good to see you!
