I have no idea what city Comic Book Evolution is even in and their entire web page fails to even say(even on the "About us" page they fail to say WE ar e a shop located in..." which is bizarre!).

Holy shit that looks nice! Clean, bold inks that compliment/enhance the pencils rather than dominate them(ala Alfredo Alcalca).

Nice to see UK still laying down the ink. Looks awesome. He's really perfected his tapered lines. Mark's pencils look good, too (although that pose is a bit stiff in that first panel).

Thanks guys! I'm glad you dug the art!
As I said before, Mark is doing a tremendous job with the pencils on this book and it SHOWS.
UK just finished a 5-page ink stint on the book, so I made sure to showcase his current work in the "Making of". It was good to have him back doing some work.

Sorry for the late updates. I've been extremely busy and haven't had the energy to report, but it did give me time to clarify some issues that arose in the past couple of months. All right, some good and bad news to report. The JACK THE LANTERN: HALLOWEEN EDITION TPB is being released on October 28th to retailers—3-days before Halloween. This is a great looking book and as a bonus I just added a 5-page pin-up gallery that will feature art by Mark Kidwell and Tim Vigil. Our own Paper Dragon (Gregg) wrote the intro for this book.
On the bad news front, I regrettably had to cancel pre-orders on JACK THE LANTERN: WAR OF TH SOUL GN. The pre-orders were very low, and I couldn’t bring myself to print it with those numbers. The main factor for this cancellation; economy being first, but Diamond Dist. also made an error with the retailer incentive that I know helped contribute to the low orders. On the bright side, I will now be re-soliciting JACK: WAR OF THE SOUL in March 2010 through Diamond, and this time, without any errors. I also plan on releasing a 2010 Emerald City-Con version of the book on March 13 & 14 (Seattle, WA), so stay tuned for that.

Cool! Unless my ride bails out or something I will see you at the 2010 ECCC.
Can't wait to get my hands on the Jack Halloween edition(I ordered 2 of them).

I just found out this morning that the JACK TPB will now be out on November 4th--four days after Halloween. The FUCKING PRINTER screwed up the cover and now it's going to take another week to get it to Diamond. Sorry! One thing after another...
