Explosion Proof 3 - Page 5

ONE MORE PAGE TO GO!
So some exposition before the big.. uh.. finale. I'm sure most of you can assume what's going to happen…..
Promised some info this week about the books for upcoming cons I'm working on. Well I've got three books that I'm getting ready for print actually. Lady Fight (in which THIS story will appear), Mastorism #6, and the Mastorism collected edition. I'm pretty excited about all of them. As usual, its kind of been a mad dash to get them ready in time for cons. I actually have a guy representing Earthbound Comics (the publishing venture I'm involved in) at MegaCon in Florida in March. I'm really excited to have my stuff on display on the other side of the country. The other con, a short while later in April is WonderCon, where I will personally be along with my pal Ben Ferrari (Sleepbringer). So, excitement all around! But a bit of stress!
Also, I can finally report that I have, in fact, began drawing new Mastorism pages (I almost forgot about this update, in fact, I was so excited to be drawing). So, while I'd like Mastorism to pick up seamlessly when this story ends, I don't think I'll quite have an adequate buffer to make that happen. We'll see, but I'm super excited to be drawing that again– the story is really coming together. I think most of y'all already read that story, buuuuuuuut just in case: http://www.drunkduck.com/mastorism Check it out and get caught up, cause we're gonna take off running!
Alright, thanks everyone for reading and commenting, Back next week with the exciting conclusion!

Comment replies:
DAJB - Red! Absolutely! When I first ran through the page, I felt it fit with the camp of EePee's world, but I happened to show the page first to someone who actually owned a ‘57 convertable, and they were quick to call BS on me… so… I’ve felt a little apprehensive about it since. I'm over it now though.
AzuJOD - Thanks!
repoman - Rocket seat! Yes! I just think maybe cruise control might have been not so far out there that it's safely in suspension of disbelief territory, is all. But, no one here seemed to mind, sooooo….. And yes, the story telling would have been awfully clunky otherwise. AND, I only had six pages to work with.
wellsee - Thanks! She is!
Brogan - Thanks!
Janen - First off, hey! Thanks for checking the comic out! And secondly, yes, definitely “do not try this at home” material. I don't think you'd actually even be able to stand up before the car catastrophically veered off the road.

I was trying not to read the story before Lady Fight #3 comes out, but dang it if i just can't wait that long...

"No matter what happens..." Whenever someone says that I get nervous.

The car shots really are cool, Matt!

There's always [i]someone[/i] out there with a little too much technical knowledge (and/or a '57 Convertible!) I've had people call me on everything from the effect of certain hormones on the brain to the correct way to go about sabotaging a nuclear power plant. Sometimes you just have to say: to Hell with reality, I'm doing what works for the story!
