Is rock Dead? No, we still have Alcest

I have been sorely disappointed by the last couple of releases of some of my favorite rock bands.  Most of these guys are from the 90's and I think that most artists only have so many albums of material in them.  It actually feels like rock music might be dying.  But wait there is still one awesome band out there, and they're actually my favorite band right now! Alcest.

There's no other band on the planet like Alcest, and Niege is so young still, only a year younger than me.  I'm sure he'll top off the Shelter album with the new album that's coming out.  A lot of his fans have said that his music is the most emotional music they've heard in a long time.  Words and lyrics don't matter for the portion of us fans who don't speak French, it is just raw, pure emotion in his vocals.  Check out Shelter, and his prior albums, all near perfect albums in my opinion.

Now on to T.I.T.S.  Man we've had some great randoms from the web pledging, but still have a ways to go.  We are at 75% now with only 9 days to go, so it is crunch time!

Nana - A Japanese Anime

So, I've been watching a new anime series called "Nana."  It is about two girls named Nana who have walked two totally different paths in life.  One is a popular, preppy type of girl who always has a different boyfriend, but yearns to find a boy she can love.

The second Nana is a rocker chick who plays some guitar and sings in a band.  She fell madly in love with the bass player in her band who ended up leaving her to join another band in Tokyo.

A year passes by and the the two Nana's move to Tokyo for separate reasons.  It is here that they meet on the train to Tokyo.  The two hit it off well, and then go their separate ways after the train arrives in Tokyo.  As they both separately look for an apartment, they wind up at the same apartment building and end becoming roommates.

It is very interesting to see how the two Nana's relationship builds over the course of the series. There are many heartbreaking moments, many moments of joy, and overall the trust and friendship the two have together is very touching.  Some might say this is josei anime, but really it is for anyone who has that desire to move off to the big city and make things happen for them.  I am very much enjoying this series and have a ways to go with it.  I'd recommend it to anyone.

T.I.T.S. Facebook Page Made

Hey folks,

It has been a while since I posted here.  I made a facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/Transmigrant-Interdimensional-Taxicab-Service-952132528211109/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel

It's a long link for now, only because I haven't changed the web addy yet.  I'm still undecided on what I want it to be.

I'm going to be posting here more regularly, daily perhaps, with a lot more info, artwork, character bios, Wave 1 Story arc synopsis, and much more.  Thanks, Colton

Submitted issues 1-4, 5 in Production

Well,

We finally submitted issues 1-4 to IMAGE comics.  Really hoping they accept us! Fingers crossed.  I think we submitted at the worst possible time of the year, the week before Christmas, so now we are just waiting around, nervously twiddling out thumbs as we wait for a response.

David and Eve are kicking ass on issue #5 though.  I mean this guy and gal can do no wrong and they are putting out quality pages! This will be the fastest issue (production wise) yet I think!

Issue #4 Near Completion

Issue #4 is almost done! It has taken longer than I expected to get these first four issues done.  Initially I hope to submit to Image Comics by the end of September and it has just been getting pushed further and further away.  But, alas, I guess I can't expect the detailed work that David and Eve do to be rushed.  T.I.T.S. looks amazing I think, so I am grateful to have these two incredible artists on-board.

God Speed you Black Emperor!

Casey and I went to Dallas last week and watched God Speed you Black Emperor! for the 3rd time.  Such a great fucking band.  Also while we were there we visited 2 awesome comic book shops and bought tons of more comics from #Zeus Comics and Collectibles and #Titan Comics.  Now I have an even bigger stack of comics to catch up on, ha, oh well it is good to have several issues of one title you can read, that way I can go from say #RUNLOVEKILL one night and Invisible Republic the next night :)

Also, David has started the tight pencils for issue 4! And Eve is almost done with the colors on issue 3. Exciting times.

New Comic Book Day is coming!

Tomorrow is new comic book day and I still have a stack of comics from the previous month to tackle! IMAGE and Boom! Have some pretty good titles out that Casey and I have been reading.

IMAGE: RUNLOVEKILL, Descender, Invisible Republic, Autumn Lands, ...and more


BOOM!: The Spire, Arcadia
