Lots of destruction! Huzzah!
Congratulations if your comic was nominated in the DD awards. Nice to see some of the titles I read and voted for make it through (Shades, Acrobat among others). Keep up the good work guys!
Unfortunately, Retake didn't get nominated. Ah well. I'll try giving the judges a bigger bribe next year, eh?
All the best,
Dan (MrHades) & Dave (SympleSimon)

So, yeah...Retake didn't make it into the DD Awards after all. I'd be lying if I were to say I wasn't the slightest bit disappointed, but that's only because I had high hopes for this, seeing as it would be the last chance Retake would have had in the Awards, as by this time next year we should be onto 'Relik'. And then it's back to Square One, with a brand-new comic trying to hold its own against all the greats of the genre (Acrobat, Shades, Energize, etc). Glad to see a lot of my favorites made it in though (at least the judges listened to me in some respect, lol!). I'm really happy for you, guys, and wish you all the very best! As I mentioned, Retake is almost over - hard to imagine it's been over a year already! After an indefinite hiatus, I'm hoping to bring Relik fighting back to the Duck! And, I hope I can expect to see some familiar reads when 'Relik #1' kicks off...I'm really looking forward to it, it'll be a BLAST!

love this page quite a bit with the perspective and the signage used in the battle.

Great use of environment on this battle! The movement is just really awesome too!

The standard of comics on DD has gone up so much in recent years that the competition for the top 5 finalist slots is always stiff. After the winners are announced, they'll print a full list of everyone who was nominated for each category and I'm sure you'll find Retake features quite a lot among those!

Curses, foiled by a letter with hole in the middle of it!

Keep at it, judging by your work I'd say plenty of awards are coming your way one day!

There's always next year. Same goes for me. Keep up the good work.
