Spoilers for the Nemesis Prequel Graphic Novel.

Last time I spoke about Nemesis Dawn of a Legend, the graphic novel, I spoke about splitting the story into two parts. Well, that idea is now dropped. Instead of breaking the story arc into two parts the book will be whole only they will be two versions: the standard edition and the bonus feature edition that will contain variable covers, behind the scenes, artwork and more. That's all I need to say right now, plus we got a different colourist for that series who is working on a very special project of mine. I will resume providing layouts and inks while Rommel Fabian will replace Julio Falkenhagen in the pencilling duty and Shawn Milazzo is in for the letters, nothing more should be revealed for the series until we are through with the current series that is coming up soon. You should hear more from me about the prequel sometime around in March on an update video.

Next time fans,

Nemesis teaser trailer.

Everyone taking a good holiday this summer? Well, I have not got time for that this year, but I am taking breaks whenever I get the chance. Printing for issue 1 of Nemesis the Hunter's Mark has been sorted and my production team is about to make the order. I am trying my best to get colour notes done. Kieron Boothe is back to work, once I have sent him the notes colour will be washed over and should expect a release date very soon. It is definitely going to be released over in the summer, for now, here is the sneak peek of cover art of issue 2 done by Dean Richards and the synopsis of that particular issue is below. Amazing, right? There should be a little bit of insight over this creative process planned when you pick issue 1.

In regards to my anime trailer, I am casting someone a child actor to play the 9 years old version of the titular character, Henry Jackson/The Nemesis. I am in need of an teenage one as well alongside Courtney Starr who is playing the 24/25-year old protagonist. I have not filmed the interview with one of the animators who is attached to this project, Jordan O'Connor, but you can click on the link address below.

http://www.vimeo.com/26265310

Baring in mind he is a 3D animator, these are works he has done and it does not necessarily mean he will go and then adapt his skills which should affect my vision. My animation will blend 2D hand drawn animation with computer programmes to create American-Japanese influenced anime. A theme song will be produced by UK Hip Hop band "Triple Darkness" member J Tha Exodus and will be performed by British Hip Hop artist "4 Real". For those who are not aware of his music, his video is below. Anyone interested in his channel ask and I will send you a link to his channel but I have to ask him permission.

Trailer aside for now, I have found a possible candidate to replace Richard O'keffe in the role of Nate in the upcoming Hardest to Survive film. I will get back on that later, next week I will post another blog on how my 2011 mix-tape Breakin' Da Rules is coming along and have an update on how my projects is going on a You Tube video.

Later on bloggers,

Cast is almost set...

I have been quite busy last week, I been to the London Film and Comic Con in Earl's Court and saw the star of Prison Break as "T-Bag" and Heroes "Samuel Sullivan" Robert Knepper. Asking him about what things has been like since he left Season 4 of Heroes, he replied "Always working and it has been a lot fun". I met up with artists such as Lee Townsend and he among others gave me a lot of good advice about breaking into the comic book industry.

There is a charity I will take part in for the Red Cross for those who were unfortunate victims of the Tsunami in Japan and the Netherlands. It will be a web comic about an unlikely British model from West London who turns out to be a heroine. No further details will be going into the book just yet except that it is currently being written. Also, expect me to be part of the Birmingham Comic Con in this October 2011. This has been my first time in a convention and it was great but I won't lie, it was overwhelming at first. Especially with so many fans in costumes.

Now on with the main project, Nemesis the Hunter's Mark, spoke to Rommel Fabian and he is finishing off the last half of issue 1 in lettering, Dean Richards has just sent me cover art for issue 2 and I'm trying to finish my share of colour notes. I should be meeting Kieron Boothe about doing some colour. The cast for the animation trailer is almost done, with the actor to play Uncle Phil being searched for around the globe. I am in the middle of polishing a script from my editor for the cartoon and I am finding some more animators for the job to pull this one off. There are meetings to discuss but arrangements will be met.

I'm coming back with an interview of one of the animators, his name is Jordan O'Connor and the synopsis for issue 2.

Interlude III.

With exams near and course work in the way, I did not have time to even bat an eye lid. I've been so busy, I could only make one post this week. Production on The New Kid has been delayed but is still in the works, I spoke with the director, Jstaarz and he is real adamant with pulling this one through. I respect that and its only with perseverance that gets you anywhere in this world. It was supposed to have started at least a couple weeks ago, but there has been a few minor setbacks that does not effect it too much. Most of it centres on the actor playing show's protagonist. Hopefully, it will go fine from here on out. Expect shooting to take place after May.

For Nemesis, I am now in search of animators for the special trailer in time for my first issue's release, the final draft of the script is being written by my editor, I have found 6 potential actresses to voice the character's love interest, Maria, I am still on the look out for a talented, experienced and great voice actor to portray Henry's stern, patient, abrasive uncle. At the moment, I'm trying to make all preparations for the print and sending colour notes to deliver to Kieron sometime next week. Still no word on who is publishing the whole comic book series but expect some agreements being made by the end of this month or later. Dean has almost finished the cover art for issue 2 and Julio is bound to start pencils on that very soon.

I am having a meeting with Director, Enrico Tessarin, to catch up with stuff going on for my upcoming short film, Hardest to Survive. I plan two more test shoots after the 18th this month as I have exams on that date and coursework to hand in. After this, the real filming starts but I will organize a Production Schedule. By then, a Producer should be able to enter the door and sort out a few contracts. What can you do to support both projects? Simple, visit Facebook or Twitter and follow the cause. My twitter page is www.twitter.com/lildre_cains and just type Nemesis the Hunter's Mark for Facebook pages and if you are interested press 'like' on the page. Same with Hardest to Survive, you can also follow me on both twitter and this blog.

New Logo and More News.

Like the new look, why have I changed it you ask? Well I wanted something that is a little bit more distinctive from the older version and is what has been shown on the cover of the first issue but without the dark motif and is orange. Don't worry, the orange eye is no reality TV concept its just a representation of the mascot's power, so no Big Brother here. I'll leave questions about lettering to Blambot, anyway, I have an improtant update to make. Since the site is being run, more multimedia will be underway within a couple months by the LD Studios Team and I am about to edit a video for something else. It may be shown on the website as an example of our services. Anyway, the news is I am in talks with showing some preview pages of issue 1 of the comic will be shown on Wake Up magazine. For those who have not seen the pencilled and inked version of those page search for Nemesis the Hunter's Mark on Facebook Pages and they should be there. Lettered pages should be on there soon.

Be cool everyone,

The Nemesis about to go print.

At last, Julio Falkenhagen, co-artist and designer, has sent me the rest of his drawn pages for Nemesis the Hunter's Mark issue 1 "The Fallen". I'm about to go through it with inks and the letterer, Rommel Fabian has sent me some pages lettered. Both are very talented at what they do and I'm glad we've almost got the book ready for print, you can see the inked and lettered pages down here below. I will unveil a picture of the next issue cover for number 2 very soon but for now just know that issue 1 is coming along fine. I am going to start the next draft for the animation trailer very soon, and I have begun to sort out a studio where I can record the actors voices. Expect issue 1 to go under print very soon, I am meeting to discuss the sample of the comic going into a magazine plus the press release of my interview should be coming soon.

The New Website.

Nemesis the Hunter's Mark will release it's new website on the 31st March, at the moment it's still under construction and has not been updated yet. On the site, there are services as well as some multimedia you can observe. The services include video production, writing proposals, illustrations and T-shirt designs. Its supported by GBBO (Getting British Business Online) and is associated with Head for Business, L-D Studios, Frontier Entertainment and Ezee Media. It provides writers a chance to get their voices heard and their ideas enhanced. The site will be linked to this blog and any presentations will be referred on the blog but uploaded on that network. There, you will be able to make an order for the comic when it comes out soon this Spring 2011. Production is moving swift, I promise I will get back to the covers in due time. Also, pray for those who were lost in Japan in the Tsunami, its a terrible situation and I hope many down there are okay. I think I will do a campaign for them and give a tribute and show them to come out this dark time, maybe some Manga art. We must not take things for granted that we're still alive. The secret to life is to make up for things and enjoy yourself whenever you can in life.

I will be back with progress on the comic book,

Take care everyone,

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend e-book

Welcome back, it's been a busy start of the new year in January and I am here to keep you posted on what is going on with both projects within the next few weeks. Rommel Fabian (letterer) for the upcoming seven issue comic book series, Nemesis the Hunter's Mark, just confirmed he will be a guest artist for the prequel Nemesis Dawn of a Legend alongside myself and Shawn Milazzo who replaces Fabian in lettering duties. The colourist for this book has not been confirmed yet, but I will be quite busy sending Fabian designs for that after I finish with this series. I aim to have a Summer-Autumn 2011 release of the e-book later on this year. I will be handed the pencils from Julio Falkenhagen soon for this real soon. I hope to get back to you with the covers by next week. Also, I had an interview with Ota Otakiju about it, the article will be posted here.

In other news, I just finished shooting an extended clip of The Hardest to Survive today, photographs of behind the scenes will be on my Facebook group page. I plan to re-shoot clip 2 and possibly film clip 3 on 29th January 2011. I apologise for the lateness but that was due to Artefacts Edutainment shutting us out the way they did. I sorting out a meeting with Director Enrico Tessarin from New Treatment to lend a hand with the distribution and handling production of the actual footage. Hopefully I can sort this out in time so that Principal Photography should begin sometime in February. I have yet to receive any more updates on what is happening with the Artefacts organization, but we are definitely moving our studio, Ezee Media and Lil Dre studios, away from Artefacts over to another studio elsewhere.


Take care everyone,

Countdown to 2011!!!

Alright, Christmas and Boxing Day has passed and it is almost soon for me to get back to my studies. I am going to go out by saying, thank you for everyone who have been following this blog for the past eight months. It's not over yet, this however, is just the beginning. I have come here to give you a synopsis of what should be happening in Nemesis Dawn of a Legend issue 12. At the moment, I will be again busy and I have the computer back and it needs to get sorted out. I will get that sorted plus I have to do covers for issue 11 and 12. To everyone, I have promised that this series is going to be re-printed in physical form and as e-books. I already got a letterer attached to the project as well but it will have to be later on in the year. I have the outline for issue 13 and 14 sorted out and they will be posted on the 7th and 14th of January. I will try my best to get the missing covers out there as best as I can. Before I leave, I would like to give you a treat of what is to come in the last few episodes.





Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#12




The Dual Line: Part 2 of 4: Abandoned.



"Henry Jackson returns home knowing his loved ones are now safe and sound, but it is not over yet, unfortunately for him they are the least of his worries as someone who he has got a brief history with returns to the surface and is revealed. Abducted by the ghosts of his past, Henry is left completely helpless and trapped by the kidnapper who desires only to see him be punished by the mistakes that he made. With his powers nullified due to being subjected to drugs, he cannot recover from the wounds inflicted upon him and faces death. All the while, he receives brutal interrogation methods by his overseer about something he does not appear to know about. What is this kidnapper asking about plus what does it have to do with Henry? Is Henry lying and if so why is he so eager to protect the secret from this person? How can he survive this mess without all of his special abilities? Stay tuned for the second part of The Dual Line saga."




Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#13





The Dual Line: Part 3 of 4: Scars that Haunt.



"In the penultimate episode of "The Dual Line" saga, Henry Jackson found out that his own comrade, who helped out with discovering the assassins (who attempted to kill his uncle was led by a notorious crime lord known as Mr. Braddock) turned out to be his own worst enemy. It appears the betrayer will stop at nothing to get what he deserves: a mysterious secret formula behind an organic compound for synthetic skin. Through a last ditch effort to escape, acquiring the data within the memory stick, Henry ends up accidentally endangering himself. Since the beginning of his journey, he is stepping closer to his chosen path and future destiny but which is it? To lead the dangerous life of a professional uber assassin or live one over the edge as a fully fledged vigilante? Will he follow his father's legacy, completely reject it, or go toward a different path? Henry must use the teachings he learned from his training in controlling his inner demons and then apply it to handle the situation."



Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#14




The Dual Line: Part 4 of 4: End of the Line.



"Barely escaping the clutches of his father's life of murder and deception, Henry suits up and takes on the mantle of Shadow Man II and confronts the villain in a final showdown at the place they first met. He now must seek out his first love and childhood sweetheart, psychotherapist and pharmacologist, Shannon Michaels, to investigate the properties behind the compound before his enemy uses it for narcissistic purposes. A great battle for control over the neighbourhood begins as the sinister T.K. mysteriously survives the accident of an explosion, imbued with enhanced strength and durability due to recent medical treatments. From all tragedies weighed down upon his life, the urbane 21 year old Henry no longer feels the need to follow the legacy his father passed on to him so his future remains unknown. In the last episode to end this chapter, will Henry ever defeat T.K. and become the most feared hunter ever known? How will Henry ever move forward over his darkest hour?"




Thankyou and have a happy new year




Later on,

Episodes delay & Hardest to Survive update!!!

Fans, it's been a really busy week this December. I have just finished a unit in my studies and I got a lot on my plate for English course work, I just don't get no break. I can't wait till Christmas, finally, anyway enough chat. I got some more sad news, episodes 11 and 12 are put off for another two weeks until I can get my act together in sorting out my covers but my computer is still getting fixed. Damn, so for now, just keep checking for the covers on past issues they should be available very soon. The scripts for those new issues are being re-written and I'm working on covers for them. Okay, now as with Hardest to Survive film, the clip will be shot. Again, sorry for the delay, it would have been done quicker if the people who are in charge of the editing room did not let us go. That will all change soon, Ezee Media and Frontier Entertainment is cutting ties with Artefacts Edutainment due to complications.

Well that's it for me, I'll be back with more blogs. Check out Kbon Reviews in the meantime he is doing film reviews for 'Buried' 'The Social Network' and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. I will be releasing artwork for my upcoming comic book series Nemesis the Hunter's Mark, which includes character sketches, previews and concept art by different graphic artists' such as myself, Julio Fulkenhagen and Dean Richards soon. A teaser page of this will be out by the last issue of this web comic series. Get ready for the big hunt of a life time.

The Next Chapter...

Okay, people. I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that I am slowly working on covers for issue 8, 9 and 10 but my main computer is down which is causing problems. Due to all the snow that is going around this Winter lately, it might take some time before I can load them up. Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#11 and#12 scripts are nearly ready but they have been re-scheduled for next Friday. The bad news is that due to how my schedule, method, lateness and expectations of this monthly web comic is, the series is going to wrap up at issue 14. Don't worry, though, I've always planned to wrap it up in fourteen issues. I am sure most of you dedicated fans who have read from the beginning must of read #10 where I haven't put a cover up for yet. As you can see, Henry's character by now has got what he wanted at a price and in the last story arc of this series "The Dual Line" we see how he gets on in the aftermath of his battle. I am not gonna say my goodbye's yet, but I want to say thank you for putting the trouble to read my stuff I have up here. I am very grateful, however, this is not over.

I have already made plans to re-print all fourteen issues back to back in printed form which are written by me of course along with the detailed art handed to by Rommel Fabian with me covering the layouts and new covers and some others in my team doing chores with my book. I am not sure when these all will be re-released but it's hopefully in mid 2011 and I'm not sure in what format, whether it will be in hard cover/soft cover graphic novel, a prestige book or collected items. One treat I got for you is to look out for the new comic book, which starts a new chapter I call Nemesis the Hunter's Mark with the first edition of #1 printed sometime in Jan 2011. I already completed the scripts for this, I am working on the pencils with comic book artist from Argentina, Julio Falkenhagen, while I'll be doing inks, my bro Kieron Boothe is doing the colours and Rommel Fabian is taking on lettering duty. That's enough from me, for now.I have a synopsis for issue 11 down below and I will be putting up a flash trailer of the new series very soon. They have been story-boarded, just sorting out the program to use them with.



Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#11






The Dual Line: Part 1 of 4: Tactics.



"Two years since the battle that changed his life forever, Henry now has recently been cared for his nervous breakdown and is back at university. At 21, many of his friends and loved ones have grown older and he is quite lonesome. However, when an unknown foe that seems to come from his past returns with a message 'You lied to us, your blood will be paid in full' Henry's fate is now faced with the responsibility to bring down the mysterious T.K. before the master conspirator poses grave consequences towards the people he cares about and possibly his hometown. Meanwhile, his one time best friend turned rival, Ryan Mitchell guest stars this episode with Maria Francisco who has come back from her country in Puerto Rico, Carolina. Mitchell heads into the path of darkness after the stresses that inhabit his years are out of his control. With Henry unable to remember a fraction of his memories from the last vital points in his journey and is now the victim of multiple personalities - an entity known as The Shadow Man grows more powerful - corrupting the very nature that makes him a human. In each of us is light and dark but who is a hero or villain for good? Will Henry find the capacity to be the hunter who he is meant to be?"

Now that he learned who he really is and the nature of his great powers, having experienced his own father's world of murder and deception, Jackson is now in the darkest hour as he dwells on and suppresses the strong emotions in his terrible past. A line has been cut and in order for him to move on and forge a new identity that distances from his father's assignation, he must face his inner demons.

Film stills for The Hardest to Survive

Fans, it's now the beginning of November and times are getting colder but that's not stopping me. In this blog I have stills of the film clip we just shot in South East London. Playing Trey is Eugene Osei and the one in the purple Adidas, Nicholas Marshall, is going to be portraying Remo. There's more to come this week as Ezee will be editing one of the clips we shot and Jstaarz is doing the first clips with me. Also coming from Lil Dre, I have the synopsis for my tenth issue of the all renowned Nemesis Dawn of a Legend coming on Guy Fawkes Night. The cover for issue 8 should be released before then and you are going to have to wait for some artwork for issue 9 and 10 I'm afraid. Apart from that, cheer up and enjoy the pictures at hand. Hopefully, clips will be out soon enough.

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#10

A Blank Slate part 6 of 6: Pyrrhic Victory

"Close on Richie, the assassin's heels, The Shadow Man (Henry Jackson) has found the headquarters of the secret organization known as The Commission. However, Jackson is now in for a fierce, battle royal as he enlists the aid of Tucker and his gang Cashmere against Richie, partner Sanchez and the whole fraternity of Secret Service men. Within rooms, corridors and stairs of HQ lie secrets kept from public knowledge for centuries plus documents on every man, women and child who are genetic anomalies - transcends - in the United States including Jackson that are kept behind lockers. The person who holds the key to it is someone who set this whole thing in motion - his parent's death, amnesia and birthright to name a few - now is time in order to kick butt and get some answers. No... it's not as simple as that as the puppeteer is pulling every one of Henry's strings. In the final part of A Blank Slate saga, Jackson will get a chance encounter of the infamous crime lord that no police force can touch."

Episode Nine: Whisper.

Everyone, the script for issue 9 "Whisper" is here. I will post the cover art for that some other time. Someone still needs to sort out Photoshop, but it is getting sorted out. Next week on the 5th November, as normal, issue 10 will be released on Friday and this one wraps up "A Blank Slate" saga. I will be out tommorow to help Mathu Ezee shoot his film and mine and let you know how that went. For now, just enjoy the story plus write any comments you have on it that are positive, however, if there is something you don't like tell me why. The actor who is going to play Trey is Eugene Yeboah who has done theatre work and many other dramas plus Ace Asaun is going to play Malachi, the gang lord. I will send you the mug shot and the finished clip sometime next week.

Streaming....

To everyone,

Yeah, I got a few things to say here. Unfortunately, covers for issue 8 (I am working on) and 9 (coming in two days) is not available. I am getting somebody to fix Photoshop on my computer, without it, you cannot get any colour. However, the scripts will be printed as normal and you get to see the story. Also, everyone can find the synopsis for issue 9 below. I will be doing the editing with Jstaarz tommorow plus he is setting up a location for his own short film, Cold Outside, which involves an interesting tale about mistaken identity. I have no idea who the actors will be for that or anymore details surrounding it, but he will be able to fix the computer problem I have anyways. Auditions for Hardest to Survive is still ongoing, but I have two more actress' for them. I have yet to find roles that fit Lee but I have found the ideal actors who is playing Trey and Malachi. The names I will reveal at a later date when the confirmation is upheld.

"Finishing up his training with Jung Kwan, Henry Jackson finally discovered his totem; the symbol of air, wearing the symbol on his dog tags everyday to remind him of his purpose: to dish vengeance or punishment against those who prey on the souls who cannot help themselves and protect the weak. Never before has Jackson been this focused and driven in accomplishing his goal. Now on the hunt for the marauding forces who threatened his guardian, Jackson decides to keep his uncle in hiding after he is well and confront the same assassins behind a powerful organization called The Commission. He is now confident in his abilities that has now increased over 100 fold and managed to supress the urges, his "Beserker Instinct" that corrupt his mind - wearing a new uniform - in ownership of his birthright. Despite these changes in heart can Jackson really be cured of his temptations? Will his powers be enough to defeat Carmen "Richie" Richards? How did he get to this point in the first place? Everything will be explained in the second to last part of 'A Blank Slate' part 5 of 6." One rumour is all it takes.

Ja Ja Soze: "Own Thing" Official video

Hope you had a good time this October, I will like to note that editing of The Hardest to Survive teaser will be shown either next week or during the weekend. My team have already started capturing the clips and we have to render some of them. What I have got to show you, to celebrate Black History Month, I've decided to post a music video on this blog by a well known artist called Ja Ja Soze, a Grime artist from Brixton. He is quite popular around his area, it features me plus the actress, Yasine Burell, who is signed up for playing the role of Shanna in my film. Have a listen and tell me what you think. It has been shot, courtesy of Mathu Ezee. The cover art for issue 8 of the comic Nemesis Dawn of a Legend should be put up this weekend but you can look at the script in my other column below. I had a deal with another graphic designer, his name is Kieron, at the moment, he's busy but he agreed to work on the artwork I am doing also, he is a good colourist I met up yesterday to discuss some new projects coming out next year. There's more to come next week, so I'll let you know what's up very soon like a flash animation trailer for the Nemesis and where's it going to go from there onwards. I got big plans for this 2011, for the rest of '10 it will be great. I will not be posting up that clip until around mid or late November because of work.

Episode Eight: Blood and Bullets.

Fans, this is another great issue of my web comic series. We pick up last issue in a third chapter of the "A Blank Slate" saga with "The Yin and Yang" as Henry Jackson shot down an officer but it is revealed he only left a flesh wound on the cop who chased him down. He seeks guidance in the form of Jung Kwan, a Korean-American martial artist, who knows more about Jackson than he knows about himself. After Kwan informs Jackson about the five Japanese elements and that one of Henry's superhuman powers is to control one of these elements such as air, fire, water, earth and void. The mysterious tutor consoles Jackson that in order to master his abilities he must first be in control of self. But what does the elements have to do with it? Find out this issue.
