I'm proud to announce a new series entitled: Z SPARTAN (PRO: "ZED"), which will make It's debut as a one-shot in February, 2007. The concept that blends lore, heroism, and old fashion politics, had been in the works for the past seven years, but it didn't solidify until those long lulls at the 2006 Seattle Convention. Coincidentally, that lead me to hire another amazing Vigil, our own "master of mayhem" Joe Vigil to pencil the book. I was always trying visualize the right art style for the book, and after flipping through Joe's portfolio, I thought "Shit, Joe could do this". Oh, and he could also do a mean "zombie jesus" Of course, it wouldn't be a party without Tony Bledsoe bringing his masterful inks to the table. Stay tuned!

This will be one ungodly team-up. You guys have all seen Joe's work. What has his beef with inkers always been? "THEY FUCKING DROP DETAIL."
Gentle folk, I will NOT be dropping detail. I'm scheduling two days for every page.

Name change already! Yes, unfortunately I had to make the change due to the fact that I got lot of "Zee Spartan" instead of" Zed Spartan", and I didn't want the hassle of explaining American and British pronunciation of the letter. The official title will now be "The SPARTAN." This will be one ungodly team-up. You guys have all seen Joe's work. You better believe it.

First look at the new THE SPARTAN: Blood War cover by Joe Vigil and Tony Bledsoe has been posted on the site! www.castlerainentertainment.caJoe did an amzing job with the colors! Oh, and, after showing this cover to some people in past few days, and seeing their first reaction, I just want to clear the air right now for those who might ask the "question". THIS BOOK HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WAR ON TERROR!Thank you! I hope you like the cover!

This book is going to get attention! As it's about heroism, sacrifce and war, and our first image is pretty stark and jarring, there will be interest stirred up. Though it's not about the war on terror, It's still a timely book. Joe did a great job of digitally painting this cover. Please take a moment to hit the Castle Rain link and check it out.
thanks!
Tony

Okay, I just wanted to give you guys a little update as to the current state of this book. So far, Joe has completed 5-pages out of the 12-pages for his segment in the book, and I just have to say that this is some of the finest work Joe's ever done. Stay tuned!
