perechon The artist ( Wayward Sons Legends ) has family in Japan, so he decided to create a comic to benefit the victims of the catastrophies in Japan. And he needs help of other artists like YOU, as it will be a co-production!
I´m sure, many of your readers will appreciate it, if you at least check it out and think some time about it!
I don't know if I can contribute personally, but for now, I just wanted to put this out there. If anyone of you is interested, or has an idea, feel free to discuss this here. Maybe we could even do a little community comic - I'm open for suggestions.
I'm as shocked and saddened by the events in Japan as I bet all of you are. I'm afraid that right now, logistics are their biggest problem - food, water and power can't reach the places where they're needed the most. Anyway, you probably know better than I do which organizations in your country (red cross, etc.) can use your donations. But again, suggestions are welcomed.
Also, the next HA page is in the coloring stage! Thanks for your patience.
Ah, that makes sense. It would be nice if print wer an option for all of the books, but such is as it is sometimes, I guess. Also, I appreciate the low price, because otherwise I might not have been able to afford it, but I always want to hear that people have been compensated for their work. At least the comics increased awareness of some great characters.
But your more uniformity of the Heroes Alliance pages should be quite good for print. I specifically point to page size, as it is one of the more jarring aspect of the print versions of Ego and Fury that some pages have so much dead space around the actual content. But high resolution picture is also a great thing to maintain.
shastab24: Regarding HA in print, watch out for an announcement within the next three weeks or so!
I always like having print as an option, so I requested the artists give me their pages in hi-res whenever possible. As you wrote, the other HU chapters are Nepath's responsibility. (Personally, I certainly would like to see a massive HU ultimate collection!)
As for earnings: Splitting them up would indeed be impossible, so all HU (and eventually, HA) comics are non-profit. I set the price as close to the printing cost as possible.
I just got my copies of Heroes Unite: Ego and Fury in the mail from IndyPlanet (after ordering them on the 3rd--they must be quite backed up there) and it got me wondering (and maybe a forum topic should be started on this) about the possibility of Heroes Alliance print versions. Are there any plans for such an endeavor?
One of the annoyances with the Heroes Unite print versions is the lack of them--only two of the stories. They are good stories, but it would be nice if I could grab some of the others, as well, including HU Adventures.
Considering that Ego and Fury are Abt_Nihil productions, and Heroes Alliance is basically his product, I would have hope that this comic would have a bit better of a go at it.
Then again, I do have to think of what a headache it must be to divvy up the earnings amongst so many artists, and maybe that is a reason why there haven't been more posted on IndyPlanet.
I started formulating a story for the Japan Needs Heroes event, and creating a new character for said situation. The problem is, I'm still writing the Heroes Alliance story I've been working on all week and may be a bit too drained. Not to mention finding an artist...
I'd be open for a community comic, but only if it's less superhero-y and more real hero-y, centering on the men and women who are fighting over there. I love Japan just as much as every other country in the world, and it's very tragic what happened.
Also: It is? Then I guess I must check my e-mail, because you haven't PQ:ed the page to me...

God of War: Well, I guess you'll have to either find an artist, or maybe an artist (reading this) will volunteer...?

I can pass a word to the others.

It's only for artists, or writers can help too?

Yeah, It's sad that the people of Japanese are suffering
