YOU ARE NOT ALONE arrives FALL 2013

We still do need artists. We’re always looking for artists.

BUT we’re also looking for LETTERERS in a big way.

Let me answer the burning question again. Unfortunately, we don’t pay. All we can offer this time is a chance to work with a great group of editors and writers, deadlines set very far in advance to afford flexibility to do other work and a chance to be published alongside some of the finest professional and up and coming creators I’ve ever had the chance to work with. I wish I could give everyone what they deserve we’re simply not able to do so at this time.

I’m very proud to have been able to give over 200 creators the opportunity to have their work published for the first time. In some cases, they were able to have their work featured in issues alongside pros like Sterling Gates, Victor Gischler, Justin Jordan, John Jackson Miller, Mike Moreci, Gail Simone and Len Wallace. And some of our artists like Cassandra James (Valentine), Mike Lapinski (Feeding Ground) and Brent Peeples (Last of the Greats) have done major projects with other companies.

Please email me at gatheringanthology@hotmail.com and cc Marc supermarc@gmail.com if you are interested, and thank you for checking us out.

Len Wallace had a successful crowdfunding campaign for ‘Season One’ of The Zipper Club that he intends to publish through GrayHaven. It’s a wonderful and important story that I can’t wait to see continue.

I think we’ve solved our printer woes. There are a lot of terrific options out there but one company just seemed like the perfect fit for us. We’re in the process of sending them the files for RUN LIKE HELL #1 and THE GATHERING: CRIME so we’ll see what happens. If the books come out like we like we’ll be back on schedule. A newly amended schedule but a schedule nonetheless.

I think we’ve fixed some of the issues in our ordering system. I know I’ve tried to address them all and play catch up. If you haven’t been able to order or worse, haven’t received a book from us please email me at gatheringanthology@hotmail.com and let me know so we can sort that out.

11:59 #2 is coming! Our artist is a proud papa now and once he is able to find an hour to sleep or eat he’ll be back at the drawing table getting the next issue. Thanks for the positive response so far to the first issue. It gets even better from here.

The art continues to come in for YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I was extremely impressed with all of the great stories that made their way into the book but the artists involved are really kicking butt and bringing these stories to life. It’s the most important project we’ve ever done and I think we’re pretty good to go in terms of bringing this book on schedule for September

Victor, Sam and Jermaine are hard at work on TITANIUM STAR. The first issue is in the can and we’re allowing the team to get some more issues under their belts before we solicit these for sale so you can enjoy the story at a much quicker pace. The story, art and colors on this are phenomenal. Can’t wait until you all have the pleasure of reading it.

More to come. Stay tuned!

Coming Soon

By Glenn Matchett (w) and Alan Anguiano (a)

Between busy life schedules for all, some health issues for some and just the general hectic pace of the entire process we hit a slight snag. Unfortunately that slight snag got a bit bigger when our printer,  Comixpress, announced they were shutting their doors.

We hope to have a new printer to work with soon and start releasing new books before the end of July. And as all these different schedules start to work themselves out look for more frequent updates on this site, our FB page and Twitter feed.

Thanks for your patience.

We’ll be back to regular scheduling before you know it.

Scripts have been in for awhile and now some wonderful pages of art are making their way in.
