Thank you so much for the candor and vulnerability here. I am always so taken by the process stuff, and your honesty with your “failures” is refreshing, and ultimately, triumphant!
I know you said it didn’t work for you, but I actually love your Greg Ruth inspired cover! If you ever feel like selling it, I’m interested. Great work, as always, Jeff
Mazebook issue 1 was fantastic! Just curious when we might start seeing the exclusive Black Hammer comics through your Substack? Keep up the awesome work!
I will update the Black Hammer books soon! They will start appearing early 2022. The Substack thing happened really quick before launch. I had Fishflies already in progress and ready to go, but the Black Hammer books will take a bit more time to actually complete. But they are all in progress. 5 different BH stories so far of varying lengths.
I loved issue #1 as well Jeff and can't wait for the next one tomorrow! Also I have to comment...I asked Dustin a few years back if he still had the original artwork for his Smashing Pumpkins "Siamese Dream" variant for Royal City and he said he looked all over for it and just couldn't find it....and I see it on your wall there. For one it bums me out because I wanted to buy that so bad as they are my favorite band and Royal City is my favorite comic...but on the other hand I'm glad you have it and it's not lost :-) Loving this newsletter.
Honestly, I love a few of those covers as much as the final version.
ISSUE #2 WAS SO GOOD!!!! Can't wait for issue #3!
Thanks!
Gotta love seeing the whole process from cradle to grave!
That second cover on the post should 100% be the slipcase to a deluxe edition!
Stay tuned for news on a super deluxe edition!! It is in the works

It will definitely be for sale very soon. I will have Cadence hold it for you. Maze art is going on sale next week.
Hey Jeff, did Cadence ever post the Greg Ruth-like piece you did? I've been on the lookout for it, but haven't seen it hit the site yet.
Wow! Thank you! It’s a wonderful piece - I’ll keep an eye out for it when it posts
