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.

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#9

A Blank Slate part 5 of 6: Whisper

"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.

Thank you for reading and see yah,

Half Term Break....

Fans, I had a really tiring but good time yesterday, Jstaarz managed to edit bits of the clip and it is descent so far. It took some time for rendering but he did a good job. Editing will continue next Thursday and the preview should be uploaded on this site pretty soon. Now that I'm on break, I can finally relax after six weeks of studying. Speaking of which, it gives me some free time in order to update this site every now and again. I got some more news for all of you, I plan to start filming and principal photography sometime in early 2011. There's lots of big things happening that I don't want to spoil yet, and that will be something I won't reveal until sometime during the end of the year around Winter. If and when it goes to plan, then I'll spit out the news on what's going on. So far, it's too early to confirm but it involves a large team. For now, I will be focusing on the cover art that you deserve. Again, I am sorry it's not up yet but I'm a very busy guy. Before you cut my throat for this one let me say that Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#9 is out next Friday 29/10/10 and #10 will be out the following week on 05/11/10. Those issues will be key to a big event coming on the horizon, as I have promised, I will do some more images for my Bios page.

Peace,

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.

Good News with The Hardest to Survive!!!

I got some great news for The Hardest to Survive, I found two more parts in the main cast for the short film. Due to results in last weeks auditions in October 7th 2010, I finally came up with a few people who could fill in the rest of that group apart from the ones I have mentioned at least many weeks ago. I will reveal all of them and provide a mug shot of them on this blog after I release a teaser clip from the actual film. I have many options to consider those as extras and supporting characters, but I still have some more auditions to sort out. I had two meetings, the last one was on Tuesday where I spoke with my advisor with Mathu Ezee and Jstaarz on what direction I should take. I shot the clip on Saturday 9th October and my team will be editing the footage this Thursday. Hopefully it should be out by this week or next.

The web comic, Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#9 will be out this October 29th and issue #10 is going to be out sometime on November 5th 2010. That will be the end of the "A Blank Slate" story arc, I just finished the first draft of the script of #9, which is called Whisper. My tenth episode will be titled "The Pyrrhic Victory" and will end the second arc in a big way. Issue 8 "Blood and Bullets" has been released but I am sorry that I haven't finished the cover art for that issue yet. It should be up there by this Friday plus you can go and check all of my artwork on Deviant Art because I am starting to fill up my gallery with a lot of different stuff on there. You can go and see the link to it now on my site then I say I can get someone to post the cover art soon. There is another clip by Ja Ja Soze, a great artist in Grime that Mathu Ezee did for him, he sent me the link I'll post it this week.

Laterz,

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.

New Covers and Breaking Story!!!

Above are two covers for Nemesis Dawn of a Legend #1 and #2, on the top shows The Nemesis seen for the first time and the bottom is Henry in an Afro escaping in the wilderness of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. I have great news for you people who still are looking forward to my short film that is coming out, The Hardest to Survive, today I am having a meeting with some advisors to book more auditions very soon. Not only that, but test shoots begin this October 9th next week Saturday. This will be a teaser and the video clip will not only show two of the best actors who are portraying Nate and Remo, but it will be shot at the same location where producers filmed the last episode of The Bill. Richard Okeffe and Nicky Marshall will play Nate and Remo respectively. Just before I crack on, I have a synopsis for the eighth issue of Nemesis Dawn of a Legend below.

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#8

A Blank Slate part 4 of 6: Blood and Bullets.

"On a mission to find out his true destiny through an unrevealed totem, Henry Jackson continues his training with his master, Jung Kwan, only to unwittingly give up on his duties and go on a quiet killing spree. During a crazy act of justice on the scum of New York, he finds himself chased by the authorities. If that is not enough he meets a questionable ally who has dangerous connections to the very pests who got his father on the wrong side of the law. With the police getting close on his heels, caught right in the middle of a supermarket, Henry must decide whether to go along with this stranger and escape or just act on his own will. Who is this person and can he really trust him? Is Henry at all safe with the company this guy keeps? Does this guy have some agenda under his bandanna or what? A Blank Slate saga rages on with part 4"

Hope you all loved issue 7, as you know, issue 8 will be posted on Friday's as usual. Speaking of that day Smallville the new season has just hit the USA. The first episode was sweet, those people really pulled their weight with the whole Clark nearly becoming Superman, the Boy Scout we all know. I remember starting to watch it when it first came out. I was about eight, good times. You will enjoy the next couple of issues to come, I haven't started writing the next issues after 8 yet but in the next couple issues after this, you will be surprised at the result during the conclusion of this second arc. Beware of this one for those who don't want to know what is to come. SPOILER ALERT!!! Issue 9 will see Henry on the hunt for one of the assassins and is hot on the trail while Issue 10 introduces a main villian of this story, which springs into a major battle royal and there will be blood.

Later everyone,
