Babylon Cove - Mad Cave Studios If you ever wondered what would happen if Stephen King were allowed to write one of those Hallmark holiday movies...Welcome to BABYLON COVE.

We're one month away from BABYLON COVE #1 hitting the shelves. Have you pre-ordered yet? madcavestudios.com/series/babyl...?

James is a pleasure to work with and any smart publisher would be better off with James on their team. Hire this dude!

What the crap??? I'm super bummed to hear this!

I have to do that too, though it’s because I got too much iron buildup in mine.

WOW.

Can’t stay away

Working production in comics is the best. So many emails like this.

This made my morning!

‘Babylon Cove’: A Romance Comic Book with a Demonic Twist Sometimes we read a synopsis for a new book and we’re pulling it at our LCS right away. This is what just happened with Babylon Cove. Babylon Cove #1Publisher: Mad Cave StudiosWriter: Rafer R…

Sometimes I’m a pretty good writer

This was so much fun. Check out me and @plasticfarm.bsky.social chatting with @jimmygaspero.bsky.social about our new @madcavestudios.com horror/romance book, BABYLON COVE!

Now on Youtube! Look at Joe and me and our pretty faces as we talk about horror and romance and comedy and making comics with friends. youtu.be/-KcwQAC5kyc?...

Even if contacting your representatives feels pointless (South Dakota resident here), take the time to voice your opinion and if you can, request a response. You deserve to at least hear them explain why they won't oppose the president threatening to wipe out an entire civilization.

Distract yourself from the horrors of reality by watching me and Joe talk about our horror-romcom series!

A four panel comic called Gotta Have My Batman. First panel is the title. Second shows two fanboys discussing the new issue of Batman, which will have an artist/writer they hate. But they'll buy it anyway, because as one sayd, Gotta Have My batman. Third panel, a new issue of Batman comes with a kick in the balls from comic shop retailers. Still, he says, Gotta have My Batman. Finally, a new issue will come with anthrax. I think you know where this is going.

NERD INFERNO is out April 28th from @darkhorse.com.
Posting something from the 648-page omnibus every day until then. Unless I screw it up and miss a day. Or eight.

Today: You know it. You love/hate it. It's in the book. Once again..."Gotta Have My Batman".

At least fill the cups with sand or something to fake the weight!

The call isn't the only thing that's cold.

Just do as many pages as you can. You don't have to show anyone the bad ones. Keep going. Just make more.

Did you make a lot? Well, make more.

You think you made enough? You did not not. Make more.

I love when the thumbnails align

A fun night (wish we won)

Do any of you out there work in prepress? Where are my fellow prep tech people? I need more peers who I can bounce esoteric questions off of.
